Since the festival’s first edition in 2002, TIMF has been striving to assemble highly qualified musicians in order to build its own ensemble. In 2011, then Alexander Liebreich initiated a collaboration of musicians from Ensemble TIMF with the Munich Chamber Orchestra, thus for the first time building a truly international Festival Orchestra. From then on, the group was assembled annually, performing at home and abroad. At the opening of the new Tongyeong Concert Hall in 2014, TFO was again led by Alexander Liebreich and included musicians from Ensemble TIMF, Polish National Radio Orchestra of Katowice, and from major international symphony orchestras, such as NDR Hamburg, Munich Philharmonic, Kremerata Baltica, Osaka Philharmonic, Melbourne Symphony and Sydney Symphony Orchestra. In 2015, TFO truly became a musical centerpiece of the Tongyeong International Music Festival. Following the festival theme „Voyages“, the orchestra went abroad to play in Japan and China. Performing together with violinist Gidon Kremer and German conductor Christoph Poppen, the orchestra consisted of musicians mainly from Korea, Japan and China to create a musical bridge between the three countries.

  • Incantations Analytical Commentary Graham Waterhouse
    Incantations Concerto da Camera for Piano and Ensemble (2015) The balance of traditional and progressive musical parameters through the concertante treatment of the piano Analytical Commentary Graham Waterhouse A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Birmingham City University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2018 The Faculty of Arts, Design and Media, Birmingham City University (Royal Birmingham Conservatoire) Abstract The aim of this research project is to investigate concertante techniques in composition with reference both to traditional models and recent works in the genre, and to redefine a contemporary understanding of concertante writing in preparation for the principal work of this thesis, Incantations for Piano and Ensemble. Starting with the contradictory meanings of the word “concertare” (to compete and to unite), as well as with a fleeting, non-musical vision of combining disparate elements, I investigate diverse styles and means of combining soloist (mainly piano) and ensemble. My aim is to expand my compositional “vocabulary”, in order to meet the demands of writing a work for piano and ensemble. This involved composing supporting works, both of concerto-like nature (with more clearly defined functions of soloist and tutti), as well as chamber music (with material equally divided between the players). Part of the research was to ascertain to what extent these two apparent opposites could be combined to create a hybrid concerto/chamber music genre in which the element of virtuosity transcends the purely bravura, to embrace a common adaptability, where soloist and ensemble players are called upon to assume a variety of roles, from the accompanimental to the soloistic.

  • Biographic Sketch and Work Catalogue
    Biographic Sketch and Work Catalogue Jörg Widmann was born on 19 June 1973 in Munich, the son of a physicist and a teacher and textile artist. His younger sister is the violinist and violin professor Carolin Widmann. He began clarinet lessons at age 7, completing his education with Gerd Starke at the Munich Music Academy and with Charles Neidich at the Juilliard School in New York. His studies in composition began with Kay Westermann when he was 11 years old; they were continued in 1994-1996 with Wilfried Hiller and Hans Werner Henze and concluded in 1997-1999 with Heiner Goebbels and Wolfgang Rihm. Since the fall of 2001, Widmann has been teaching as professor of clarinet at the Musikhochschule Freiburg; eight years later the same institution additionally named him professor of composition. As a clarinetist, Widmann champions chamber music. He concertizes regularly with partners like the oboist Heinz Holliger, the violists Tabea Zimmermann and Kim Kashkashian, the pianists András Schiff and Hélène Grimaud, and the soprano Christine Schäfer. Moreover, he is celebrated at home and abroad as a soloist in clarinet concertos, and several contem- porary composers have dedicated works for or with clarinet to him. Thus he premiered Wolfgang Rihm’s Music for Clarinet and Orchestra in 1999, Aribert Reimann’s Cantus in 2006, Heinz Holliger’s Rechant in 2009, and Peter Ruzicka’s Three Pieces for Clarinet Solo in 2012. In the course of the years 1993 to 2013, i.e., the two decades between his twentieth and his fortieth birthdays, Widmann has written more than eighty compositions.

Goethe's correspondence with Zeiter not only records the poet's own constant musical activity and sincere concern to understand the art, but also highlights his interest in the history of music as part of the chronicle of human culture. His consultation with Zeiter about the music he heard provides a valuable chronicle of concert life in Germany at the beginning of the nineteenth century and yields insight into the reception of contemporary music and musicians. "While the beginning of Goethe's correspondence with Zeiter is marked by his dependence on the composer, frequently Goethe opens up their musical discussion and gradually this reliance diminishes.
