NIKOLAI KORNDORF: a BRIEF INTRODUCTION by Martin Anderson Nikolai Korndorf Had a Clear Image of What Kind of a Composer He Was
Explore Unknown Music with the Toccata Discovery Club Since you’re reading this booklet, you’re obviously someone who likes to explore music more widely than the mainstream offerings of most other labels allow. Toccata Classics was set up explicitly to release recordings of music – from the Renaissance to the present day – that the microphones have been ignoring. How often have you heard a piece of music you didn’t know and wondered why it hadn’t been recorded before? Well, Toccata Classics aims to bring this kind of neglected treasure to the public waiting for the chance to hear it – from the major musical centres and from less-well-known cultures in northern and eastern Europe, from all the Americas, and from further afield: basically, if it’s good music and it hasn’t yet been recorded, Toccata Classics will be exploring it. To link label and listener directly we have launched the Toccata Discovery Club, which brings its members substantial discounts on all Toccata Classics recordings, whether CDs or downloads, and also on the range of pioneering books on music published by its sister company, Toccata Press. A modest annual membership fee brings you two free CDs when you join (so you are saving from the start) and opens up the entire Toccata Classics catalogue to you, both new recordings and existing releases. Frequent special offers bring further discounts. If you are interested in joining, please visit the Toccata Classics website at www.toccataclassics.com and click on the ‘Discovery Club’ tab for more details. 8 TOCC 0128 Korndorf.indd 1 26/03/2012 17:30 NIKOLAI KORNDORF: A BRIEF INTRODUCTION by Martin Anderson Nikolai Korndorf had a clear image of what kind of a composer he was. -

BCSBC Newsletter May 2007
Issue 5 Vancouver, Canada May 16, 2007 www.bcsbc.ca This issue is dedicated to May 24, The Day of the Bulgarian Enlightenment and Culture, and of the Slavonic Alphabet Happy Holiday! The Bulgarian-Canadian Society of British Columbia congratulates all Bulgarians on the occasion of Mays 24, the Day of the Bulgarian Enlightenment and Culture, and of the Slavonic Alphabet! One of the most exciting holidays of our people, this day in the beautiful month of May fills us every year with a grandiose sense of pride, patriotism, and national dignity. It gives us a feeling of enlightenment and hope for spiritual strength, for light and uplifting in harmony with the unique colors and happy sounds of spring. Man and nature look up to new heights and start dreaming of something endless, magnetic, and stronger than themselves. Nature turns to the sun, and we turn to the inner light in our lives – speech, knowledge, science, and culture. Let us have a happy holiday and let this magnificent day continue to charge us with energy, love for the word, faith in its strenghth and intuition how we can use it to make our days brighter and worthier. Ivelina Tchizmarova, Ph.D. Director in the Bulgarian-Canadian Society of British Columbia and editor in chief of the BCSBC Newsletter Successful Bulgarians in Vancouver: Anna Levy – a piano player, a teacher, and a patriot The first impression Anna Levy leaves in people is “genuine, warm, down-to-earth”. Before one knows her, one may think that musicians of her caliber are more haughty and inaccessible, but I did not find anything of this stereotype in the Bulgarian virtuoso. -
