POSTH. 163 «Seit der Erfindung der Notenschrift gibt es die Tonkunst in zwei Aggregatzuständen: als notierte und als klingende Musik. [...] Seit der Erfindung der Schallplatte hat sich verstärkt eine dritte Grösse zwischen Notation und Klang geschoben, nämlich der Interpret.»1 Indes ist die Zielsetzung des Interpreten einzig und allein, die Musik «in ihrem innersten Wesen»2 als zeitlich gebundenen Klang hörbar zu vermitteln. Waches Formbewusstsein, empfindsamste Klangsensibilität in Bezug auf die Harmonik sowie Beherrschung der spieltechnischen und dynamisch-dramatischen Ausführung sind die Grundlagen, ohne die er sich nicht einmal in die Nähe der grossen Meisterwerke wagen kann. Eine massgebende Interpretation des Streichquintetts D 956, Schuberts instrumentalem Schwanen- gesang, unbestreitbarem Gipfel seiner Gattung, verlangt eine fundierte innovative Kunstfertigkeit seiner Interpreten; sie können sich das Stück freilich seit langem leider nur in einer recht zweifelhaften Drucklegung des verschollenen Manuskriptes aneignen: Spätestens seit der ersten Ausgabe als „Grand Quintuor“ von 1853 bei C.A. Spina in Wien ist das Manuskript unauffindbar. Zahlreiche offensichtliche Unstimmigkeiten, auch Flüchtigkeitsfehler, die Schubert nicht mehr korrigierend hat bereinigen können, sind seltsamerweise auch von den neuesten sog.

  • Gwendolyn Masin Biography 2019/20 (Long)
    Biography / Long Version (2019/20) Challenge Life’s Definitions Gwendolyn Masin is one of today’s significant concert violinists. She is regarded as, “a formidable talent that demands attention” (The Irish Times), “appearing to merge with her instrument and in so doing, enchanting her audience” (Thuner Tagblatt). She is celebrated for, “setting first-rate standards in concert performance with her technically superior, refined, intensive and richly contrasting expression” (Der Bund). Gwendolyn is descendant of a lineage of classically-trained musicians and remembers playing violin as naturally as having a conversation when she was a child. Her family, imbued with musical insight, helped her to avoid, “the pitfalls of child prodigy status” (Figaro.hu). Her formative years were shaped by musical instruction, world travel, performing for audiences in reputable concert halls, and collecting accolades internationally—all by the age of five. At eleven she gained national exposure in Ireland after appearing on, The Late Late Show. She has been a regular guest on TV and radio shows and has performed in Asia and throughout Europe, Russia, South Africa, the Middle East, and North America. The pursuit of a distinctive voice is driven by timelessness Gwendolyn holds degrees with highest honors from the Royal Schools of Music in London, England; the Hochschule der Künste in Berne, Switzerland; and the Musikhochschule in Lübeck, Germany. Her teachers include Herman Krebbers, Igor Ozim, Ana Chumachenco, Zakhar Bron and Shmuel Ashkenasi. Gwendolyn cultivated a distinct style of violin-playing, as well as her identity as an artistic tour de force while carrying out formal studies. “I have had the privilege of collaborating with some of the most acute musical minds of our time.
