The Lullaby Concerts 2009–2018
THE LULLABY CONCERTS 2009–2018 AN OVERVIEW OF THE LULLABY CONCERTS Orchestras Live developed the Lullaby concert series in partnership with City of London Sinfonia, as a response to the need for Early Years music making opportunities in rural and culturally undeserved areas in the east of England. Our aim was to develop inspiring, interactive and relevant ways to engage very young children (aged up to 7 years) in first-time experiences of live orchestral music. This included a long-term approach to artistic exploration with our creative partners, responding to the needs and priorities of the communities where the work was based. Evolving from a series of pilot projects started in 2003, the Lullaby concerts reached over 20,000 young children and their families in Suffolk and Essex over 10 years. For many this was their first experience of live orchestral music, and these encounters have often inspired children to take up an instrument or other creative activity, as well as encouraging families to experience more live music together. Each year the concert series, performed by City of London Sinfonia and led by presenter Claire Henry, engaged children through vivid worlds such as animals, forests and science; telling musical stories through everyday themes. After each concert the children in the audience had a chance to try orchestral instruments, supported by professional players and tutors. Over the 10 years the programme involved 727 Early Years practitioners in a CPD training development strand linked to the Lullaby concerts; the Lullaby artistic team shared appropriate skills and ideas which practitioners could take back and use in their nursery settings. -

RECORDED RICHTER Compiled by Ateş TANIN Previous Update: February 7, 2017 This Update: February 12, 2017 New entries (or acquisitions) for this update are marked with [N] and corrections with [C]. The following is a list of recorded recitals and concerts by the late maestro that are in my collection and all others I am aware of. It is mostly indebted to Alex Malow who has been very helpful in sharing with me his extensive knowledge of recorded material and his website for video items at http://www.therichteracolyte.org/ contain more detailed information than this list.. I also hope for this list to get more accurate and complete as I hear from other collectors of one of the greatest pianists of our era. Since a discography by Paul Geffen http://www.trovar.com/str/ is already available on the net for multiple commercial issues of the same performances, I have only listed for all such cases one format of issue of the best versions of what I happened to have or would be happy to have. Thus the main aim of the list is towards items that have not been generally available along with their dates and locations.

The Piano Trio, the Duo Sonata, and the Sonatine As Seen by Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and Ravel
ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: REVISITING OLD FORMS: THE PIANO TRIO, THE DUO SONATA, AND THE SONATINE AS SEEN BY BRAHMS, TCHAIKOVSKY, AND RAVEL Hsiang-Ling Hsiao, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2017 Dissertation directed by: Professor Rita Sloan School of Music This performance dissertation explored three significant piano trios, two major instrumental sonatas and a solo piano sonatine over the course of three recitals. Each recital featured the work of either Brahms, Tchaikovsky or Ravel. Each of these three composers had a special reverence for older musical forms and genres. The piano trio originated from various forms of trio ensemble in the Baroque period, which consisted of a dominating keyboard part, an accompanying violin, and an optional cello. By the time Brahms and Tchaikovsky wrote their landmark trios, the form had taken on symphonic effects and proportions. The Ravel Trio, another high point of the genre, written in the early twentieth century, went even further exploring new ways of using all possibilities of each instrument and combining them. The duo repertoire has come equally far: duos featuring a string instrument with piano grew from a humble Baroque form into a multifaceted, flexible classical form. Starting with Bach and continuing with Mozart and Beethoven, the form traveled into the Romantic era and beyond, taking on many new guises and personalities. In Brahms’ two cello sonatas, even though the cello was treated as a soloist, the piano still maintained its traditional prominence. In Ravel’s jazz-influenced violin sonata, he treated the two instruments with equal importance, but worked with their different natures and created an innovative sound combination. -

TCHAIKOVSKY STRING QUARTETS NOS. 1 & 3 by Andrea Lamoreaux The frequency with which we hear the music enrich and vary concert programs and recitals of Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky — in concert and to a much greater extent than they currently on recordings — is the subject of much com- do. The Tchaikovsky chamber works heard most mentary. Such comments often rise to the sta- often are his Piano Trio in A Minor and the tus of complaints: a concert-goer exclaiming, sextet subtitled Souvenir de Florence (the latter “The Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto AGAIN?”, reflecting Tchaikovsky’s love for Italy along with or a CD reviewer questioning the need for his skill for creating lush string sonority).
