Letter to the Editor From Guy Rickards banishment for the composer. Indeed, its gentle style is winning and close to the classic Russian In the light of the growing interest in the music of concertos of Tchaikovsky, Glazunov, even Nikolai Roslavets, seen most recently in his Konius, for all the intricate chromaticism of some inclusion in the South Bank's 'Russian Spring' parts of the work which would have passed most festival (reviewed by David Wright in Tempo 177) listeners by (and would do today, I am sure, if so and the CD issue of the Piano Trio No. 3, what is much were not made of it). still less than clear is what precisely caused his Roslavets's attempts at chromatic system- total eclipse from Soviet musical life - at least in ization bring obvious parallels to mind with Western Russia (far worse than anything schoenberg, Hauer, Valen, et al, but to my ears Shostakovich was later to endure). While works relate back to Scriabin as much as anything and such as Aux heures de la nouvelle lune and the stringcertainly retain a distinctly Russian character. quartets (both included in 'Russian Spring'; why Schoenberg was not yet the Great Formalist did the Tempo review omit rhe fine single- Bugbear so the language of the Concerto in itself movement Third Quartet?) were undoubtedly hardly seems a legitimate cause. Perhaps glasnost radical for the period, especially in Russia, it is will extend further to reveal this particular the later, mellower Violin Concerto that is skeleton: in the meantime one can but listen to usually cited as the reason for his exile. Yet the the music in wonderment, and try to forget the Stalinist terror was at that time years away and apparent catastrophic consequences of its more advanced music was both composed in composition. Russia without censure and welcomed from Western Europe during the later 1920s. Though 9 Somergate censure did indeed arrive, Roslavets had by then Horsham been safely mewed up in Soviet Central Asia for West Sussex the best part of a decade, so it seems to me that RH12 1UJ there is a large chunk missing from the equation. I cannot imagine many in the audience at the Tempo intends to return to the subject of Roslavets and his forms of serial premiere finding the work so offensive - even the working during 1992, when at least a partial answer to Mr Rkkards's boorish Man of Steel - as to merit internal question regarding his political fate may be forthcoming. - Ed.

(Mr. Steinhardt, also a longtime member of the Curtis faculty, is one.) looking back, the current golden age of string quartets can be traced to a mission statement issued almost 90 years ago by early Curtis director Josef Hofmann: “to hand down through contemporary masters the great traditions of the past; to teach students to build on this heritage for the future.” Mary louise Curtis Bok created a haven for both teachers and students to immerse themselves in music at the highest levels without financial burden.

Hans-Karl Piltz (1923–2020) Professor Hans-Karl Piltz was a talented violist and teacher who helped shape the School of Music as it evolved from a small Bachelor of Arts program in the late 1950s to the large and thriving School it is today. He was 96 years old when he passed away this April. Prof. Piltz loved teaching, and in 1959 joined the UBC Department of Music — as the School of Music was then known. As Professor of Viola, he mentored several generations of strings musicians who have gone on to long and successful careers in orchestras and as soloists in North America, Europe, and all over the world. He founded and directed the UBC Symphony Orchestra from 1959–1970 and also helped found the Vancouver Society for Early Music — now known as Early Music Vancouver — in 1969.

As the century progressed, the dominance of complex, Baroque compositional methods had diminished and the style of writing had been simplified, making it easier for an amateur to master. Yet, at the same time in Vienna, the public performance of larger-scale, symphonic music came into vogue. And as this was written for professionals, the composer could explore greater complexity, even bringing back some of the intricate devices of baroque music such as fugues. Furthermore, in the last decades of the century, a full-time, professional quartet was maintained in Vienna by Count Razumovsky for performances at the great houses.

Critics and colleagues hold the Quartet in high esteem and many of today’s leading artists and composers seek out the Quartet for collaborations. The Quartet is also known for its performances of the complete quartets of Beethoven, Schubert, Schoenberg, Bartók, and Mozart. The Quartet’s recordings of the complete Mozart string quartets on a matched set of Stradivarius instruments are widely held to set the standard for this repertoire. To celebrate its 35th anniversary, the Quartet recorded an ambitious CD, Schubert’s Echo, released by NSS Music. The program invites the listener to appreciate the influence of Schubert on two masterworks of early 20th-century Vienna. In addition to quartets by European masters, the American naturally performs quartets by American composers. Their newest release, American Romantics (Apple Music, 2018), is a recording of Robert Sirota’s American Pilgrimage, Dvořák’s “American” quartet, and Barber’s Adagio for Strings.The American also champions contemporary music.
