Starting in 1983 he studied with Dmitri Bashkirov at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow, where he obtained his soloist diplo- ma in 1988. He subsequently went to Paris to study with Alexis Weissenberg; from 1992 to 1995 he took classes for advanced students at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique. In London Peter Feuchtwanger became a mentor from whom he has gained valuable inspiration.Within a short timespan Vesselin Stanev earned an outstanding reputation as a musician, as attested by his distinctions at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and at the Concours Marguerite Long - Jacques Thi- baud. Vesselin Stanev’s career has taken him to such major concert venues in Europe as Wigmore Hall in London, the Alte Oper Frankfurt, the Philharmonie Berlin, the Leipzig Gewandhaus, and the Salle Gaveau in Paris, as well as to the Nordic countries, Southeastern Europe, Russia, and Japan. He has enjoyed successful collaborations with such conductors as Paul Daniel, Alexander Lazarev, Hubert Soudant, David Zinman, and others. He also performs regularly as a chamber musician in a duo with the violinist Ekate- rina Frolova and the flutist Eva Oertle. Vesselin Stanev has recorded six CDs for the Bulgarian label Gega New including works by Schumann, Brahms, Liszt, Chopin, and Rachmaninoff. His first CD for Sony Clas- sical comprises early works by Alexander Scriabin. For the RCA label he has also made two recording projects of music by Franz Liszt: the “Etudes d'exécution transcendante” in 2010 and, in 2014, a pro- gramme titled “Music and Myth.” .

  • The Pianist's Freedom and the Work's Constrictions
    The Pianist’s Freedom and the Work’s Constrictions What Tempo Fluctuation in Bach and Chopin Indicate Alisa Yuko Bernhard A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music (Performance) Sydney Conservatorium of Music University of Sydney 2017 Declaration I declare that the research presented here is my own original work and has not been submitted to any other institution for the award of a degree. Alisa Yuko Bernhard 10 November 2016 i Abstract The concept of the musical work has triggered much discussion: it has been defined and redefined, and at times attacked and deconstructed, by writers including Wolterstorff, Goodman, Levinson, Davies, Nattiez, Goehr, Abbate and Parmer, to name but a few. More often than not, it is treated either as an abstract sound-structure or, in contrast, as a culturally constructed concept, even a chimera. But what is a musical work to the performer, actively engaged in a “relationship” with the work he or she is interpreting? This question, not asked often enough in scholarship, can be used to yield fascinating insights into the ontological status of the work. My thesis therefore explores the relationship between the musical work and the performance, with a specific focus on classical pianists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. I make use of two methodological starting-points for considering the nature of the work. Firstly, I survey what pianists have said and written in interviews and biographies regarding their role as interpreters of works. Secondly, I analyse pianists’ use of tempo fluctuation at structurally significant moments in a selection of pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach and Frederic Chopin.

  • Sat Oct 5 Program Notes
    PROGRAM NOTES: SAT / OCT 5 By Bill Crane, Director of Audience Engagement, Portland Piano International “When it comes to translating human emotions, the piano is the most perfect instrument I know.” – Marc-André Hamelin in his recent interview for BBC Music Magazine Whether as listener, student, teacher, composer, or performer, one has so many ways to approach the seemingly endlessly varied sonorities of the piano, ripe for expressing myriad emotions. As well, the piano allows a single performer to create such abundance of music – with such satisfying results, when in good hands – that composers for it have stretched its capacities tirelessly, always exploring possibilities. We live in a time well after all constraints of harmonic and formal practice that characterized music before the “modern” period were thrown off. Much of the music after the end of the 19th century, indeed, was quite reflective of the tumultuous times in which the Western world lived with boundless conflict and astounding change. This is particularly true, of course, of the Russian piano tradition, from which we will hear stellar examples in these recitals, but not there only. French music comes to mind, of course, with its own special harmonic innovations and suave, evocative ways. You are about to encounter bazillions of notes, more than seems humanly possible. More important, though, you are in for sublime artistry. This swirling world of music and musical ideas borne of many profound influences, some directly “artistic” and some esoteric (spiritual matters, political intrigue, lovers’ longing and laments), some clear to understand and others distinctly not so. I would bet that a majority of the pieces found in these two programs will be new to you, as they were to me.

BY ROBERT DeGAETANO I quickly started writing away. The music came very quickly. My first piano concerto began many years ago.

At the time I had just begun composing seriously and I was instantly aware that this theme was for a A performance date and rehearsal was arranged with Stephen major work, either a concerto or symphony. It was grand in Osmond, conductor of the Jackson Symphony and we were off design and had a monumental quality. This was not a melody and running. I mean literally running! I believe I had less than three to be used in a shorter work. I remember jotting it down and months from the date of the commission to the actual premier. storing it with my manuscript paper. Fortunately I had a little cabin in the northern Catskills of NY where I was able to concentrate freely. In 1986 I gave a concert in “ The music came New York and premiered After completing the piano part and a general sketch of the my first piano Sonata very quickly.

  • Ksenija Sidorova Botschafterin Des Akkordeons MÄRZ
    APRIL 2020 – Paavo Järvi Music Director MÄRZ MAGAZIN Ksenija Sidorova Lisa Batiashvili Chick Corea Botschafterin Die Meistergeigerin Jazz und Klassik – des Akkordeons spielt Szymanowski Mozart und Gershwin Editorial Liebes Publikum In den nächsten Wochen erwarten Sie faszinierende Debüts und eine besondere Conductors’ Academy, in der Sie sich selbst einbringen können. Den Auftakt bei den Debüts macht Ksenija Sidorova. Die Botschafterin des Akkordeons, die ihr 20-Kilo-Instrument liebevoll als «One-Man-Band» bezeichnet, wird für Sie «Prophecy» von Erkki-Sven Tüür spielen. Der Komponist, zugleich Creative Chair dieser Saison, ist begeistert von Ksenija Sidorovas Interpretation. Sie hat es sich zu eigen gemacht, wandelt traumsicher zwischen zeitgenössischen Ansätzen und den Traditionen der Volksmusik. Nach unseren Fokus-Künstlern Martin Fröst und Pekka Kuusisto passt sie perfekt als Dritte in diese Reihe. «To live with Mozart is nicer than to live without him» so Chick Corea, der als nächster beim Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich unter der Leitung von Music Director Paavo Järvi debütiert: mit Mozarts Klavierkonzert Nr. 24 c-Moll sowie Gershwins «Rhapsody in Blue», für die er seine eigenen Kadenzen geschrieben hat. Ich bin mir sicher, dass auch dieser Vollblut-Jazzer und Ausnahmekünstler Ihnen besondere Erlebnisse bescheren wird. Zwischen Galicien und Finnland in verschiedenen Chefpositionen pendelnd, wird der russische Dirigent Dima Slobodeniuk nun zum ersten Mal bei uns gastieren: Er hat die 2. Sinfonie von Sibelius im Gepäck. Auf seine Interpretation dürfen wir besonders gespannt sein, sieht er sich doch als Botschafter speziell dieser Musik, die ihn seit seiner Ausbildung tief geprägt hat. Während der neuen Conductors’ Academy können Sie über mehrere Tage miterleben, wie junge Dirigenten – drei Frauen und fünf Männer – unter der Anleitung von Music Director Paavo Järvi ihr Können verfeinern.
