  • Welcome Anthea Kreston! the Artemis Quartet Welcomes Its New Member
    Welcome Anthea Kreston! The Artemis Quartet welcomes its new member Berlin, 18 January 2016 In the past six months, amidst mourning the death of Friedemann Weigle, the Artemis Quartet also came to the decision of continuing its work as an ensemble. Now, the Artemis Quartet is pleased to announce its new member: the American violinist Anthea Kreston, who will take over the second violin position with immediate effect. In a musical chairs scenario, Gregor Sigl will assume the viola position in the quartet. Andrea Kreston, born in Chicago, studied with Felix Galimir and Ida Kavafian at the renowned Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, as well as chamber music with the Vermeer Quartet and Emerson String Quartet. Anthea Kreston was a member of the Avalon Quartet - with whom she won the ARD Competition in 2000 - for seven years. In 1999, she founded the Amelia Piano Trio. She has given many concerts in the United States and Europe with both ensembles. Eckart Runge and Anthea Kreston have known each other for twenty years. They met, as members of different ensembles, at a masterclass given by the Juilliard String Quartet. Eckart Runge: “Already then, Anthea struck me as an extraordinarily brilliant musician and someone who has a big personality. She applied for the available position, travelled to the audition from the West Coast [of the United States] and impressed us with her warm-heartedness, boundless energy and - above all - her fantastic qualities as a musician and violinist. All three of us immediately felt that, in her own way, Anthea reflects the soul of Friedemann and will bring new energy to our quartet.” Anthea Kreston: “It is with a full heart that I join the Artemis Quartet, my favourite quartet since we were all students together at the Juilliard Quartet Seminar 20 years ago.

  • The Juilliard Journal
    FACULTY PORTRAIT Paul Neubauer Viola Faculty March 2017 After graduating from Juilliard, Paul Neubauer (BM '82, MM '83) became, at age 21, the youngest string principal ever to join the New York Philharmonic, where he spent six years before leaving in 1990 to pursue solo and chamber work. Along the way he joined the Juilliard faculty and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, in 1989. Appointed last spring as artistic director of the Mostly Music series in New Jersey, he'll make his Chicago Symphony debut in 2018. Why did you become a violist? It truly was my destiny. My godfather was the Viennese-born violist Paul Doktor (faculty 1971–89), and he was a major influence in my musical and personal evolution from a very early age. I also studied with him during my teenage summers and at Juilliard. On top of this, my older siblings played the violin and cello, so viola was the perfect choice since this would complete a string trio. Unfortunately that string trio lasted about 10 minutes since my siblings were not as committed to a life in classical music. And you're still part of a musical family … Yes, my wife, Kerry McDermott, is a violinist with the New York Philharmonic, and our children, Oliver and Clara, both play the violin and attend the Juilliard Pre-College program. I have told my children countless times that the viola is a superior instrument to the violin, but they unfortunately have not taken my advice as of yet. On occasion, we enjoy playing four-violin quartets with three violins and a viola.

The young, (1770–1827) Bonn-born composer was effectively travelling to the Habsburg capital to take up where the late, lamented composer had String Quartet in F Op. 18 No. 1 left off. He even carried a letter to that end, (1798–1800) written by his friend Count von Waldstein: Allegro con brio ‘You are going to Vienna in fulfilment Adagio affettuoso ed appassionato of your long-frustrated wishes. The Scherzo. Allegro molto Genius of Mozart is still mourning and Allegro weeping the death of her pupil. She found a refuge but no occupation with the inexhaustible Haydn; through him Johannes Brahms she wishes once more to form a union (1833–1897) with another.

  • Schubert's Flights of Fantasie
    Kristian Chong & Friends Schubert’s Flights of Fantasie LOCAL Monday, 2 May 2016 6pm, Salon HEROES Presented by Melbourne Recital Centre and Kristian Chong & Friends ARTISTS Sophie Rowell, violin Kristian Chong, piano PROGRAM WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART Sonata for Piano and Violin in B-flat, K.454 I Largo - Allegro II Andante III Rondo: Allegretto ANDREW SCHULTZ Night Flight (2003) FRANZ SCHUBERT Fantasie for Piano and Violin in C, D.934 Andante molto–Allegretto–Andantino–Tempo I–Allegro vivace–Allegretto–Presto ABOUT THE MUSIC As was customary at the time, Mozart termed his early examples “sonatas for piano with violin ad libitum” but not the later Sonata K454, which he characterised as a “sonata for piano with violin accompaniment”. Yet this is a true chamber partnership, with K454 demanding a violinist of consummate skill. The opening commences with a stately Largo; it quickly retreats into a tender statement before launching into a swift Allegro with many conversational imitations and parallel lines. An Andante follows in which Mozart achieves a masterly blend of cantabile and beauty. A minor episode darkens the mood while maintaining enchanting lyricism. The concluding movement opens with a statement first spoken by the violin, with intervening episodes sandwiched between reprises of the theme giving opportunities to express Mozart’s penchant for unexpected and delectable melodic twists and turns. Night Flight was originally written as the fourth movement from a sextet called Mephisto in 1990. Ukranian violinist Dmitri Tkachenko commissioned this transcription and debuted it with Kristian Chong in London in 2003. The piece is a danse macabre for the modern age.

Vif et agite WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART (1756-1791) Quartet in E-flat Major, K. 428 . t • Until the great quartets of Haydn and Mozart, eighteenth century · t r chamber music had been written primarily for the private use of ama­ - r teurs. As the century progressed, the dominance of complex, Baroque compositional methods had diminished and the style of writing had been simplified, making it easier for an amateur to master. Yet, at the same time in Vienna, the public performance of larger-scale, symphonic music came into vogue. And as this was written for professionals, the composer could explore greater complexity, even bringing back some of the intricate devices of baroque music such as fugues. Furthermore, in the last decades of the century, a full-time, professional quartet was maintained in Vienna by Count Razumovsky for performances at the great houses.
