A Festival of Artistic Research (Graz, 5–7 October 2017) Artistic research is currently a much-talked about and highly innovative field of know- ledge creation which combines artistic with academic practice. One of its central features is ambitious artistic experiments exploring musical and other questions, systematically bringing them into dialogue with reflection, analysis and other academic approaches. ARTikulationen, a two-and-a-half day festival of artistic research that has been running under that name since 2016, organised by the Artistic Doctoral School (KWDS) of the Uni- versity of Music and Performing Arts Graz (KUG), expands the pioneering format deve- loped by Ulf Bästlein and Wolfgang Hattinger in 2010, in which the particular moment of artistic research – namely audible results, which come about through a dynamic between art and scholarship that is rooted in methodology – becomes something the audience can understand and experience. In Alfred Brendel, Georg Friedrich Haas and George Lewis, the festival brings three world- famous and influential personalities and thinkers from the world of music to Graz as key- note speakers. George Lewis will combine his lecture with a version of his piece for soloist and interactive grand piano. The presentations at ARTikulationen encompass many different formats such as keynotes, lecture recitals, guest talks, poster presentations and a round table on practices in artistic research.

  • Edgar Meyer Biography by IMG Artists - IMG Artists Imgartists.Com
    Edgar Meyer Biography by IMG Artists - IMG Artists imgartists.com Edgar Meyer In demand as both a performer and a composer, Edgar Meyer has formed a role in the music world unlike any other. Hailed by The New Yorker as “...the most remarkable virtuoso in the relatively un-chronicled history of his instrument”, Mr. Meyer’s unparalleled technique and musicianship in combination with his gift for composition have brought him to the fore, where he is appreciated by a vast, varied audience. His uniqueness in the field was recognized by a MacArthur Award in 2002. As a solo classical bassist, Mr. Meyer can be heard on a concerto album with the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra conducted by Hugh Wolff featuring Bottesini’s Gran Duo with Joshua Bell, Meyer’s own Double Concerto for Bass and Cello with Yo-Yo Ma, Bottesini’s Bass Concerto No. 2, and Meyer’s own Concerto in D for Bass. He has also recorded an album featuring three of Bach’s Unaccompanied Suites for Cello. In 2006, he released a self-titled solo recording on which he wrote and recorded all of the music, incorporating piano, guitar, mandolin, dobro, banjo, gamba, and double bass. In 2007, recognizing his wide-ranging recording achievements, Sony/BMG released a compilation of “The Best of Edgar Meyer”. In 2011 Mr. Meyer joined cellist Yo-Yo Ma, mandolinist Chris Thile, and fiddler Stuart Duncan for the Sony Masterworks recording “The Goat Rodeo Sessions” which was awarded the 2012 Grammy® Award for Best Folk Album. As a composer, Mr. Meyer has carved out a remarkable and unique niche in the musical world.

This is especially true when the performance is done by brilliant musicians. The European Broadcasting Union’s Eurovision Young Musicians is an impressive event, in the best sense of the word. It is not any old talent show, to be quickly forgotten. No, this competition provides a spring- board for talented young solo performers of classical music to enter the international scene. I am delighted that this year’s Eurovision Young Musicians is held in Cologne, a city known for its enthusiastic audienc- es and home to renowned symphony and chamber orches- tras as well as the University of Music and Dance. For one week, musical artists from 14 countries are demon- strating their technical brilliance and artistic flair. And they are well motivated: many international celebrity artists started out at the Eurovision Young Musician, the final in Cologne’s central Roncalliplatz square will be broadcast live to a European audience and the winner will be given the op- portunity to perform with the Vienna Philharmonic. Now, if that is not an incentive, I don’t know what is.

  • 2018/19 Season Announcement
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT Meredith Kimball Laing 919.789.5484 [email protected] North Carolina Symphony’s 2018/19 Season Delivers Powerful Musical Narratives and Proves that Orchestral Music Is Thriving in the State Highlights Include Season-Opener with Violinist Joshua Bell; Cultural Preservation Project with Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians; Multimedia Collaboration with North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences; Live Recording with Grammy Winners; and Continued Commitment to New Music and Work of Women Composers RALEIGH, N.C. – The North Carolina Symphony is an indispensable part of North Carolina’s cultural narrative. Founded as America’s first statewide orchestra in 1932, and traveling 18,500 miles throughout the state to engage 250,000 people each year, NCS is committed to presenting artistically excellent performances that delight and inspire—and with ticket sales increasing 50% since 2010, it is clear that the Symphony is delivering on that promise. The 2018/19 season proves that orchestral music is thriving in North Carolina: NCS will collaborate with artists and organizations to present classical music experiences distinctive to North Carolina life; commission new works by North Carolina natives; perform masterworks in new contexts; and offer broad variety in its programming—in and outside of the concert hall— to develop new audiences. “Each work we present has a story to share, and our ever-present hope is that our audiences connect to these powerful musical narratives—whether it is the triumph in Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, the humor in Strauss’ depiction of Don Quixote, or the history of North Carolina’s native people reflected in a new work,” says NCS Music Director Grant Llewellyn.
