  • Gestalten Und Schöpfen
    Magazin der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien Jänner 2009 Gestalten und Schöpfen Staatsoperndirektoren und -dirigenten als Liederkomponisten Lieder komponierende Direktoren und Dirigenten. Was an der Wiener Staatsoper lange Zeit schöne Tradition war, erklären Ildikó Raimondi, Peter Matic und Charles Spencer im Musikverein zum Thema ihres Abends in der Reihe „Lied.Bühne“. Sie haben es tatsächlich getan – sie haben Lieder komponiert, und zwei von ihnen mit großem, ja mit größtem Erfolg: Gustav Mahler und Richard Strauss. Die anderen sekundierten mit mehr oder weniger bedeutenden Leistungen: Johann von Herbeck, Felix von Weingartner oder Clemens Krauss, Bruno Walter und Karl Böhm. In Herbeck, Weingartner und Krauss brannte noch das Feuer schöpferischer Begeisterung, obwohl die Hingabe an die musikalische nachgestaltende Arbeit des Opern- und Konzertbetriebs die Kräfte für selbständiges Schaffen nur bedingt freisetzte. Bei Krauss ging vieles davon in die Zusammenarbeit mit Richard Strauss ein, während es für Walter und Böhm bei jugendlichen oder zumindest frühen Talentproben blieb. Lebendige Tradition Einmal in der 150-jährigen Geschichte der Wiener Oper standen einander im Direktorium ein nachgestaltender und ein schöpferischer Künstler gegenüber: Franz Schalk und Richard Strauss. Anlässlich der Uraufführung der Oper „Die Frau ohne Schatten“ des designierten neuen Wiener Operndirektors aus Bayern am 10. Oktober 1919 unter der Leitung von Franz Schalk – eines kongenialen „direktoralen“ Ereignisses, das in seiner Bedeutung nicht mehr übertroffen wurde – schrieb der führende Wiener Musikkritiker Julius Korngold: „Es gibt keinen lebenden Musiker, der ähnliches vermöchte; aber wer brächte auch das Vorangegangene zustande?“ Unter dem „Vorangegangenen“ darf man neben den Opern von Richard Strauss auch die symphonischen Dichtungen, kleineren Konzertstücke und schließlich die Lieder bedenken.

Béla Bartók’s Violin Concerto No. 2 was written in the depressing period preceding the outbreak of WW2, and it is the last work of the composer written prior to his emigration to the USA. For Johannes Brahms the way to symphonic genre was thorny; the German author finished his first sym- phony as a 40-year-old man. After this “debut” he plucked up courage and his Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73 abounds with cheerfulness and fresh invention. Slovak Philharmonic led by its music director James Judd welcomes the French violinist Renaud Capuçon at the festival’s opening concert. The violinist has a number of admirers in Bratislava; he excels at convincing moulding of contrasts of “understated tenderness and charming daring” (New York Times).

  • Lorenza Borrani Violin
    Lorenza Borrani Violin Lorenza Borrani is an artist for our times: an inspiring and charismatic violinist, a much sought after leader of orchestras and a gifted chamber musician. Dedicating herself to timeless music in all its different forms and periods, she likes to challenge herself in every kind of repertoire. Lorenza’s musical journey has taken her from the traditional values of 19th and 20th century music to the creation of new work and the re-examination of old masters through the intensive study of historically informed performing. With all of her versatility and vitality she reincarnates the travelling virtuosos of the 18th and 19th century when – just as today – the most sought after musicians were in demand in all of the great music centres of Europe: Milan, Vienna, Paris, London, Berlin – to which should now be added Tokyo, New York, Sydney and Beijing. Lorenza was born in Florence and studied at the internationally admired Scuola di Musica di Fiesole with teachers such as Alina Company, Piero Farulli, Zinaida Gilels and Pavel Vernikov. Later on she continued her Post Graduate studies with Boris Kuschnir at the University of Music and Performing Arts, Graz. On completion of her studies, invitations as soloist and concert mistress came quickly and over the years she has collaborated closely with many great conductors and orchestras including Lorin Maazel with the Orchestra Toscanini and Claudio Abbado. As the principal leader of the Chamber Orchestra of Europe (COE), Lorenza has toured all over the world with, among many others, Bernard Haitink, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Yannick Nézet-Séguin and Vladimir Jurowski.
