LENER QUARTET: Quartet in C, Op.76, #3; Quartet in d, Op.76, #2; Quartet in D, Op.76, #5 (all Haydn); Quartet in F (Haydn, Op.3, #5 / Hoffstetter). (Canada) St Laurent Studio YSL 78-711, recorded 1928 & 1935. Remarkably quiet transfers from the superb Royal Blue Columbia Shellac 78s (Hoffstetter from English Columbia) by Yves St Laurent. This is the second in that which will be a monumental series of L�ner Quartet CDs produced by Yves St Laurent! "Long ascribed to Haydn, this elegant Quartet in F has since been shown to be the work of a composer named Roman Hoffstetter. The first movement is a good-natured Presto in a high-spirited triple meter, presenting its charming melodies over straightforward accompaniments. The subsequent Adagio cantabile features a famous and elegant singing melody bowed out on the first violin over pizzicato accompaniments from the other instruments. It is from this movement that the quartet has received the nickname 'Serenade'. There follows a minuet whose trio refers to the texture of the slow movement, this time with two instruments bowed and two plucked, and a dashing finale marked Scherzando." - Aaron Rabushka, allmusic.com. The L�ner String Quartet was founded in 1918 by Hungarian violinist Jeno L�ner , and the original four members (L�ner plus Josef Smilovitz, Sandor Roth, and Imre Hartmann) remained together until 1942, when apparently a conflict erupted because L�ner wanted extensive rehearsal before performances of their scheduled Beethoven cycle in Mexico City. The other members objected that after decades of playing those quartets, extensive rehearsal was not needed. For almost a quarter-century before the breakup, the L�ners rivalled the Budapest Quartet in international fame. To them fell the honor of making the first complete recorded cycle of the complete Beethoven quartets. Unlike today's world, when such a project would be done quickly, this enterprise spanned from 1926 to 1938. The L�ner discography is extensive. They recorded, in addition to the Beethoven cycle, the three Brahms quartets (as well as the quintets with piano and clarinet), the Debussy and Ravel quartets, and works by Mozart, Haydn, Schubert, Schumann, and Dvorak. In 1929 the Columbia Gramophone Company presented them with a golden record, honoring the sale of the millionth L�ner recording! Ravel heard them and liked their playing so much that he personally coached the L�ners in his quartet and urged them to play an all-Ravel program. There is undoubtedly something quite old-fashioned about the way the L�ners play, with a varied but heavy use of vibrato, considerable portamento (sliding from one note to another), a strong use of rubato, and extremes of dynamic shading. Some modern listeners will object that the playing is too free, but to others it will be the kind of deeply-felt, highly personal music-making that has sadly disappeared, for the most part, from our concert stages. As you might guess, I fall into the latter category. The present recordings of the Brahms Quartets Nos. 2 and 3 were made in 1929 (Op. 67) and 1931 (Op. 51/2), so the group had already been together for more than a decade. By this time they were masters at matching sounds and colors. Daniel Barenboim once said that an ideal orchestra must play as if with one pair of lungs and one heart. This is precisely the impression one gets from the L�ners here. The blending of sonority in the two slow movements is miraculous. The way that they feed each other phrases is a perfect example of musical give-and-take. If you try to listen analytically, you will realize that an incredible amount of thought and experience must have gone into the level of musical communication going on throughout these pieces. However, it is nearly impossible to listen analytically because of the captivating ebb and flow of the performances. To me, this is quartet playing of almost indescribable beauty. That St. Laurent Studio is making at least a part of the L�ner Quartet's discography available to a wider public is cause for rejoicing. The transfers are very good, with whatever surface noise on the originals reduced or eliminated while retaining the full range of color produced by the group. There are no notes, just track listings and documentation of original recording information. The disc is available at Norbeck, Peters & Ford (norpete.com). It is an early candidate for my FANFARE 'Want List'." - Henry Fogel, FANFARE. "The L�ner Quartet enjoyed one of the great recording careers, lasting from 1922 to 1939 and involving distinguished guest artists: pianist Loeser-Lebert, hornists Aubrey and Dennis Brain, bassoonist Hinchliff, oboist Goossens, clarinetist Charles Draper, violists d'Oliveira and William Primrose, and bassist Hobday. The L�ner legacy is a collector's dream." -Tully Potter, CLASSIC RECORD COLLECTOR, Summer, 2003. "Each of these disks, from Canadian engineer Yves St Laurent [feature] St Laurent's natural transfer - made without filtering, like all his dubbings - it is easy to listen to, despite the surface noise." DENNIS BRAIN - HOMAGE (11 CDS) “In his warm and serene person all the essential qualities of the great interpretative artist were blended in perfect harmony.” Dennis Brain’s life was cut short in 1957 when he was just 36, but he had already assured his reputation as the greatest horn-player of the 20th century. He remains an exemplar for his successors today. “Technical problems did not exist for him,” continued the eulogy written by Walter Legge, EMI’s legendary producer and founder of the Philharmonia Orchestra. “Over his instrument’s whole range he had a mastery of intonation, of legato, of staccato, of dynamic range and, above all, of expressiveness.” This 11CD collection presents all his Warner recordings as concerto soloist and chamber and ensemble player – including music composed with him in mind – and his most notable contributions to symphonic, choral and operatic works. He performs in several CD premieres – music by Handel, Strauss, Richard Arnell and Norman Forber Kay – and a 1953 recording now released for the first time: Vincent d’Indy’s wind septet Chanson et danses.

  • Dennis Brain Discography

    Dennis Brain Discography

    DENNIS BRAIN ON RECORD A Comprehensive Discography Compiled by Robert L. Marshall Fourth Edition, 2011 FOREWORD This is the fourth, and no doubt final, revision of the “Comprehensive Inventory by Composer” section from my book, Dennis Brain on Record: A Comprehensive Discography of his Solo, Chamber and Orchestral Recordings, originally published in 1996, with a foreword by Gunther Schuller (Newton, Mass: Margun Music, Inc.). Most of the additions and corrections contained in the present list were brought to my attention by Dr. Stephen J. Gamble who, over the course of the past fifteen years, has generously shared his discographical findings with me. Although many of these newly listed items also appear in the discography section of the recently published volume Dennis Brain: A Life in Music, co-authored by Dr. Gamble and William C. Lynch (University of North Texas Press), it seemed useful nonetheless to make an updated, integral version of the “comprehensive” inventory available as well. There is one significant exception to the claim of “comprehensiveness” in the present compilation; namely, no attempt has been made here to update the information relating to Dennis Brain’s film studio activities. All the entries in that regard included here were already listed in the original publication of this discography. The total number of entries itemized here stands at 1,791. In the original volume it was 1,632. All the newly added items are marked in the first column with an asterisk after the composer’s name. (It will be interesting to see whether any further releases are still forthcoming.) The entries themselves have been updated in other respects as well.

  • The Modernisation of Wind Playing in London Orchestras, 1909–1939: A

    The Modernisation of Wind Playing in London Orchestras, 1909–1939: A

    The modernisation of wind playing in London orchestras, 1909–1939: A study of playing style in early orchestral recordings Emily Claire Worthington PhD University of York Department of Music April 2013 2 3 Abstract This is a study of performing styles among wind players in London orchestras during the period 1909–1939. Existing scholarship relating to orchestral performance in London in the early twentieth century perpetuates the notion that playing standards were, at best, unreliable until the establishment of contracted orchestras in the 1930s. In addition, existing studies of wind playing in orchestral recordings pre-1930 suggest that a plain style prevailed, with little use of vibrato or tonal flexibility, until the French woodwind schools began to influence British practices in the late 1930s. Three London orchestras are considered through a combination of archival research and recording analysis. A case study of the New Symphony Orchestra (1905–1930) challenges the notion that pre-1930 London orchestras were ill-disciplined and lacking in corporate identity. The NSO’s recordings document a hyper-expressive performance style founded on the use of temporal flexibility, which bears relation to styles observed among pianists, singers and string players of the period. Attention then turns to London’s first ‘permanent’ orchestras, the BBC Symphony Orchestra and London Philharmonic Orchestra. Documentary evidence shows that the two ensembles were established to fulfill two very different ideals of orchestral performance and musical aesthetic. Comparison of the orchestras’ recordings is used to establish how this led to the emergence of two contrasting styles of playing in their wind sections, both of which nonetheless represented a move away from the style of the NSO.

    Dennis Brain Broadcasts: Radio Times Listings Supplemented by Information from Letters and Contracts and other documents in BBC Written Archives Compiled by Stephen Gamble February 2013 Introduction The following broadcasts (not by any means exhaustive), listed chronologically by date, are compiled from consulting original documents at the BBC Written Archives, Caversham, UK as well as microfilmed copies of Radio Times from 1939 to 1957. Documents consulted at Caversham include: The Aubrey, Leonard and Dennis Brain Source file, the correspondence files for broadcast schedules and contracts, and the programme as broadcast files for recording reference numbers (where applicable), and the precise transmission times and other details. The correspondence files at Caversham that were referred to for this list are the following:- Contributors: Brain, Dennis, File 1A 1939-1946 Contributors: Brain, Dennis, File 1B 1947-1949 Contributors: Brain, Dennis, North Region Artists, 1948-1955 Contributors: Brain, Dennis, Artists File III, 1953-1956 Contributors: File 1 Dennis Brain Wind Ensemble, 1946-1962 The Dennis Brain Source File at BBC Written Archives, Caversham, is far from complete in its listing of his broadcasts. It barely scratches the surface of the total extent of his BBC engagements. A search of the BBC Written Archives microfilm collection and detailed study of the correspondence files shows many additional broadcasts not listed in the Source file. Searching Radio Times week by week has revealed many others. Some of the correspondence relates to the BBC’s planning for broadcasts that did not go ahead. Even at an advanced stage of planning, changes sometimes had to be made. It is possible that at a very advanced stage in programming, after Radio Times had been printed, he wasn’t able to go ahead with a broadcast.

    The Early Clarinet: a Practical Guide

    This page intentionally left blank The Early Clarinet: A Practical Guide This practical guide is intended for all clarinettists with a desire to investi- gate music of earlier periods. It contains practical help on both the acqui- sition and the playing of historical clarinets, while players of modern instruments will find much advice on style, approach and techniques which combine to make up a well-grounded period interpretation. The book presents and interprets evidence from primary sources and offers suggestions for further reading and investigation. Most importantly, a series of case studies which include the music of Handel, Mozart and Brahms helps recreate performances which will be as close as possible to the composer’s original intention. As the early clarinet becomes increas- ingly popular worldwide, this guide, written by one of its foremost inter- preters, will ensure that players at all levels – professional, students or amateurs – are fully aware of historical considerations in their perfor- mance. COLIN LAWSON is one of Europe’s leading period clarinettists. As prin- cipal clarinet of The English Concert, The Hanover Band and Collegium Musicum 90, he has recorded extensively and toured worldwide. An avid researcher into performance practice and the history of the clarinet, he is editor of The Cambridge Companion to the Clarinet, author of Mozart: Clarinet Concerto and Brahms: Clarinet Quintet in the series Cambridge Music Handbooks and co-author of The Historical Performance of Music: An Introduction in the present series. He currently holds the Chair of Performance Studies at Goldsmiths College in the University of London. Cambridge Handbooks to the Historical Performance of Music GENERAL EDITORS: Colin Lawson and Robin Stowell During the last three decades historical performance has become part of mainstream musical life.
