We need more conductors like her” Sir Simon Rattle, December 2012 Nathalie Stutzmann is considered one of the most outstanding musical personalities of our time, with parallel careers as both Contralto and Conductor. Her charismatic musicianship, the unique combination of rigour and fantasy which characterises her style have been recognised by her peers, audience and critics alike. Nathalie is Chief Conductor designate of Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra in Norway (from September 2018), Principal Guest Conductor of RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland and Associate Artist of the Sao Paulo State Symphony Orchestra. Recent guest conducting highlights with London Philharmonic Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, National Symphony Orchestra Washington, Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, St Louis Symphony, Saito Kinen Ozawa Orchestra and Bergen Philharmonic led to immediate re-engagements this season and the next. Highly anticipated debuts include Houston Symphony, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and Royal Scottish National Orchestra. Following her 2017 unanimously acclaimed success with Wagner’s Tannhaüser at Monte- Carlo Opera, she received an invitation to open the famous opera festival Les Chorégies d’Orange in 2018 conducting Boito’s Mefistofele and featuring Erwin Schrott in the lead role.

She studied conducting with the legendary Finnish teacher Jorma Panula and was mentored by Seiji Ozawa and Sir Simon Rattle.

He and his wife, pianist Ditta Pázstory, had migrated to the United States in 1940 to escape the pro-Nazi regime in Hungary, but had found limited success as performers. To survive, Bartók did some ethnomusicological work at Columbia and occasionally lectured there and at and Harvard, but he was generally unsatisfied with his situation. To make matters worse, his health had recently deteriorated; in February 1943, he collapsed after a lecture at Harvard. When he was admitted to the hospital, he weighed only 87 pounds. It wasn’t clear how much longer he had to live. Initially, the nature of Bartók’s illness was unclear. Early diagnoses included tuberculosis and polycythemia. It was only in April 1944 that doctors pinned down his actual diagnosis—chronic myeloid leukemia—but by then, there was little that could be done. In May 1943, conductor Serge Koussevitzky of the Boston Symphony commissioned a new orchestral work from Bartók through the recently formed Koussevitzky Music Foundation. The ailing composer was initially hesitant; he did not want to take a commission that he might not be able to finish. But Koussevitzky insisted that the commission was a fait accompli and the money could only go to Bartók. With the commission in hand, it seems that Bartók became energized.

  • Bath Festival Orchestra Programme 2021
    Bath Festival Orchestra photo credit: Nick Spratling Peter Manning Conductor Rowan Pierce Soprano Monday 17 May 7:30pm Bath Abbey Programme Carl Maria von Weber Overture: Der Freischütz Weber Der Freischütz (Op.77, The Marksman) is a German Overture to Der Freischütz opera in three acts which premiered in 1821 at the Schauspielhaus, Berlin. Many have suggested that it was the first important German Romantic opera, Strauss with the plot based around August Apel’s tale of the same name. Upon its premiere, the opera quickly 5 Orchestral Songs became an international success, with the work translated and rearranged by Hector Berlioz for a French audience. In creating Der Freischütz Weber Brentano Lieder Op.68 embodied the ideal of the Romantic artist, inspired Ich wollt ein Sträuẞlein binden by poetry, history, folklore and myths to create a national opera that would reflect the uniqueness of Säusle, liebe Myrthe German culture. Amor Weber is considered, alongside Beethoven, one of the true founders of the Romantic Movement in Morgen! Op.27 music. He lived a creative life and worked as both a pianist and music critic before making significant contributions to the operatic genre from his appointment at the Dresden Staatskapelle in 1817, Das Rosenband Op.36 where he realised that the opera-goers were hearing almost nothing other than Italian works. His three German operas acted as a remedy to this situation, Brahms with Weber hoping to embody the youthful Serenade No.1 in D, Op.11 Romantic movement of Germany on the operatic stage. These works not only established Weber as a long-lasting Romantic composer, but served to define German Romanticism and make its name as an important musical force in Europe throughout the 19th century.
