  • Tchaikovsky Rachmaninoff Piano Trio Trio Élégiaque No.1
    95632 Tchaikovsky Rachmaninoff Piano Trio Trio élégiaque No.1 Klára Würtz · Dmitri Makhtin · Alexander Kniazev Tchaikovsky’s negative sentiments towards the piano trio were clearly set out in a letter of October 1880 to his patron, Nadezhda von Meck, in response to her enthusiastic praise for one composed by her resident pianist – a young Frenchman Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) called Claude Debussy (a piece long thought lost but rediscovered in 1985). In Piano Trio in A minor Op.50 “In 4.

Pezzo elegiaco: Moderato assai – and piano being in his view inherently incompatible – but for the purely subjective Allegro giusto 18’26 reason that their combination would be “pure torment” for him (notwithstanding 2. Tema con variazioni: the passages for exactly those instruments in the second movement of the recently Andante con moto 18’16 completed Second Piano Concerto).

(Andante con moto-Lugubre) 7’33 The sudden death in Paris of Nikolai Rubinstein on March 23rd 1881 seems to have been the catalyst for an abrupt change of mind. Although their relationship had always been prickly – Rubinstein had famously damned the First Piano Concerto as, among other things, badly written and vulgar – it was based on solid friendship and mutual respect and Tchaikovsky was devasted by the news.

One is world-famous, at least for his film music – the other known, outside his native land, only to a few cognoscen ti; one was an exile from his homeland – the other an ‘internal exile’ within his homeland, his music celebrating his people’s national aspirations under a suc ces sion of over bear - ing foreign powers. But the two are united in their music’s heartfelt and unabashed romanticism. Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s early career resembles that of Mozart, with whom he shared one of his forenames.

This dissertation will serve as a unifying element in bringing the Armenians in the diaspora and in the homeland together through the power of music. The information collected for each piece includes instrumentation, duration, publisher information, and other details. This research will be beneficial for music students, conductors, orchestra managers, festival organizers, cultural event planning and those studying the influences of Armenian folk music in orchestral writing. It is especially intended to be useful in searching for music by Armenian composers for thematic and cultural programing, as it should aid in the acquisition of parts from publishers. In the early part of the 20th century, Armenian people were oppressed by the Ottoman government and a mass genocide against Armenians occurred. Many Armenians fled

  • Oxana Yablonskaya
    Oxana Yablonskaya Oxana Yablonskaya’s charismatic piano playing and profound interpretations have brought her acclaim for over thirty years. Known for her powerhouse virtuosity, exquisite sensitivity, and deep emotional drive, Ms. Yablonskaya has enchanted audiences worldwide. Oxana Yablonskaya was born in Moscow. As an adolescent, she attended The Moscow Central School for the gifted children under the tutelage of great Anaida Sumbatyan, with whom she worked with until the age of 16. She later studied at the Conservatory of Moscow with the legendary Aleksandre Goldenweiser. At 22, she began a professional relationship with Tatiana Nikolayeva in the Doctorate Program, later acting as her assistant at the Moscow Conservatory. Following graduation with high honors, she was introduced to the Western World in Paris at the Jacques Long-Thibaud Competition in 1963, the Rio de Janeiro Competition in 1965, and the Vienna Beethoven Competition in 1969. She won top prizes in all three competitions, and received numerous invitations for return engagements, but because of the Cold War, was not allowed to do so. While still in the USSR, Ms. Yablonskaya performed Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto #1 with the Moscow Philharmonic under conductor Yury Simonov at the Composers Jubilee Concert in the Kremlin. She was the first performer to play Rodion Shchedrin’s “Basso Ostinato,” which became her signature piece. Her status as a consummate professional was heightened by many prominent Soviet and foreign composers dedicating their music to her. Despite the reputation she had earned within the Soviet Union and being a prize winner of three international competitions, she was never permitted to play outside the Eastern Bloc.
