High Fidelity Magazine May 1960 invariably faithful to the opera under composition. á The music has a truly poetic lyricism .ii,111,t' when it deals with the feelings of indi- viduals, whether the feelings are those of Andrei and Natasha discovering cadi other in the opening scene, or of Marshall Koutou- zov apostrophizing Moscow. There is a Hamfuriz graceful lilt to the waltz airs that pop up early in the work, and the Death Scene of rsese//srhnR Andrei includes some striking choral effects and a fine duct. The long passages devoted to the Barde of Borodino and to hymns of determination and victory arc loud but arid; the scene picturing Napoleon directing the progress of the fight is a flat failure.

  • Debussy's Pelléas Et Mélisande
    Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande - A discographical survey by Ralph Moore Pelléas et Mélisande is a strange, haunting work, typical of the Symbolist movement in that it hints at truths, desires and aspirations just out of reach, yet allied to a longing for transcendence is a tragic, self-destructive element whereby everybody suffers and comes to grief or, as in the case of the lovers, even dies - yet frequent references to fate and Arkel’s ascribing that doleful outcome to ineluctable destiny, rather than human weakness or failing, suggest that they are drawn, powerless, to destruction like moths to the flame. The central enigma of Mélisande’s origin and identity is never revealed; that riddle is reflected in the wispy, amorphous property of the music itself, just as the text, adapted from Maeterlinck’s play, is vague and allusive, rarely open or direct in its expression of the characters’ velleities. The opera was highly innovative and controversial, a gateway to a new style of modern music which discarded and re-invented operatic conventions in a manner which is still arresting and, for some, still unapproachable. It is a work full of light and shade, sunlit clearings in gloomy forest, foetid dungeons and sea-breezes skimming the battlements, sparkling fountains, sunsets and brooding storms - all vividly depicted in the score. Any francophone Francophile will delight in the nuances of the parlando text. There is no ensemble or choral element beyond the brief sailors’ “Hoé! Hisse hoé!” offstage and only once do voices briefly intertwine, at the climax of the lovers' final duet.

  • SHOSTAKOVICH Violin Concertos Nos
    SHOSTAKOVICH Violin Concertos Nos. 1 and 2 Ilya Kaler, Violin Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra (Katowice) Antoni Wit, Conductor Dmitry Shostakovich (1 906-75) Violin Concertos Nos 1 & 2 Censured by Stalin, feted by Khruschev, celebrated by the world, a child of Tsarist Petersburg schooled by the first Leninists, public rhetorician, private soliloquiser: how will history choose to remember Shostakovich? As a chronicler of events epic and tragic, dimensions grotesque and satirical, perspectives elegiac and sentimental. As an essayer, a vivid essayer, of moods and confessions, of emotional discord and harmony. As a man, a genius, of destiny. Boris Tischenko, one of his students: "Our generation grew up on his music, and with his name on our lips. So our hearts would miss a beat when he took off his spectacles to clean them and we caught a glimpse of him, like a knight without armour, close to us, defenceless. The influence of his personality was so great that one began oneself to change, to become ashamed of one's insignificance, one's ineptitude, one's lack of understanding. That such a man lived has made the world a much finer place. We must all learn from him, and not from his music alone". As a human being of profound spiritual bitterness and disillusionment. Testament, the alleged memoirs (New York 1979): "Looking back I see nothing but ruins, only mountains of corpses ... There were no particularly happy moments in my life, no great joys. It was grey and dull and it makes me sad to think about it. It saddens me to admit it, but it's the truth, the unhappy truth".

  • Witold Lutosławski Festival – Chain XIV Warsaw, 28 January – 12 February 2017
    Witold Lutosławski Festival – Chain XIV Warsaw, 28 January – 12 February 2017 ŁAŃCUCH XIV 3 Marcin Krajewski A word about Chain XIV usic festivals have their logic too. It is not the only element Mthat shapes them but if it is there it gives our experience of the music a programmed, and therefore, festive shape. It is only thanks to this logic that series of concerts become festivals. Polish Radio Music Festivals, whose thematic concept was devised by the late Michał Bristiger, can serve as excellent examples of such events. They demonstrated how it was possible to listen to music in a wise manner, over and above, as it were, the formulaic ideas of day-to-day life. In the programming of those festivals, what had earlier been separated was deliberately joined together, the objective being, to paraphrase the poet Cyprian Kamil Norwid, “to bring to light the circulation of beauty”. And so Busoni was programmed alongside Karłowicz, Berio alongside Chopin, Wagner and Rossini alongside Moniuszko, whereas works by Weinberg and Ohana, together with Szymanowski’s First Violin Concerto, were included with Lutosławski. He who learns the lesson will never forget it. The idea behind the 14th annual Chain Festival dedicated to Witold Lutosławski stems in a way from the notion of such a lesson. In addition to the music of its patron, the event has another focal point which is prompted by a forthcoming anniversary – the 80th anniversary of the death of Karol Szymanowski at the end of March. At first glance, the idea of placing Szymanowski in Lutosławski’s company does not seem self-explanatory, irrespective of the fact that certain circumstances may strongly justify such an approach.
