A talented composer and singer, he exposed the Czech composer to American spirituals and was in turn encouraged by Dvorákˇ to perform his native African American folk music.

  • 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. Trio élégiaque No.1 rejecting her hint that he should write something similar, Tchaikovsky elaborated on memory of a great artist” in G minor 13’16 his antipathy to the format, not only on principle – the characteristics of violin, cello 1. 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). While conceding that other composers, notably 3. Variazione finale (Allegro Beethoven Mendelssohn and Schumann, had produced excellent examples, he could risoluto e con fuoco) e coda not be tempted in that direction. And that seemed to be that. (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.

I say fortunately, because his death at the appalling age of 31 meant that he was writing his last quartets at the age when Beethoven was writing his first. Tonight's quartet, until recently infrequently heard in concert, is from the year he left school at the age of 16. It is clearly a work of youth - full of cheer and energy - but already drawing on experience gained from producing more than half a dozen youthful string quartets. It has several intriguing features. First, all the movements are in the same key - a bold concept implying confidence he could generate interest by other means - melodic, rhythmic or formal. One can speculate that he was trying his hand at a Haydn-like experiment in musical economy.

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.

    SYMPOSIUM RECORDS CD 1156 The GREAT VIOLINISTS – Volume VII SHIN-ICHI SUZUKI GEORGE ENESCO JAQUES THIBAUD ZINO FRANCESCATTI At first glance there may appear to be little connection between the four composers on this disc other than their Gallicism, and even that may be disputed in the case of César Franck who was French only by adoption. Certainly there could hardly be a wider contrast of aims and ideals than between Franck, the priest of High Seriousness, and Ravel, the advocate of "le plaisir...d'une occupation inutile". Yet there are important, if unobvious, links. Franck and Fauré were the architects of the revival of French chamber music, and between them inspired what were to become the two main traditions of the late 19th/early 20th century. Chausson was a pupil of Franck, Ravel of Fauré. There is a link, too, in the dedications of two of the works. César Franck dedicated his Sonata to Eugène Ysaÿe as a wedding gift and, we are told, when it was presented to him at a banquet, so moved was he that he performed it, then and there. Chausson's Poème, too, is dedicated to Ysaÿe. After one run-through with piano and one rehearsal with orchestra he gave this piece too, its first performance. (One might add, on a more gruesome note, that both Franck and Chausson died as a result of vehicular accidents: Franck struck by the pole of a horse-omnibus, Chausson thrown over the handlebars of his bicycle.) The distinguished violinists on this disc between them have provided us with a recital of four masterworks from the French violin repertoire.
