He recently toured with the ensemble to both Asia and Europe, with appearances at the Hong Kong Arts Festival, the Edinburgh International Festival, the BBC Proms (London), and La Seine Musicale (Paris), among others. He is also music director of the Mostly Mozart Festival at Lincoln Center in New York, a position he has held since 2002. At the Festival in 2018 he led a celebration of the Bernstein Centenary, including a staged performance of MASS. Recent and future conducting projects include debuts with the Czech Philharmonic at the Prague Spring Festival, the Orchestre National de France, and the Konzerthausorchester Berlin. Return engagements include the Vienna and Toronto symphonies, the Orchestre des Champs-Élysées, and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra. He will also return to the Metropolitan Opera, the Vienna State Opera, and the Opéra Comique in Paris. He has conducted several world premieres, including works by Daníel Bjarnason, Magnus Lindberg, and Caroline Shaw. During the 2018-19 season he also conducts the premiere of a piece by Jonathan Bailey Holland, composer-in- residence with the Cincinnati Symphony. Mr. Langrée was music director of the Orchestre de Picardie (1993-98) and the Liège Royal Philharmonic (2001-06), and chief conductor of the Camerata Salzburg (2011-16). He was music director of the Opéra National de Lyon (1998-2000) and Glyndebourne Touring Opera (1998-2003). He has conducted at La Scala, the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Paris’ Opéra Bastille, the Lyric Opera of Chicago, the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, and Netherlands Opera in Amsterdam. His recordings with the Cincinnati Symphony include Copland’s A Lincoln Portrait narrated by Maya Angelou and world premieres by Sebastian Currier, Thierry Escaich, David Lang, Nico Muhly, and Zhou Tian (nominated for a Grammy Award). His recordings have received several Gramophone and Midem Classical awards. Mr. Langrée is a Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres and Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur. 30 Soloist Marco Borggreve Russian pianist Kirill Gerstein gives the world premiere of Thomas Adès’s Piano Concerto this season with the Boston Symphony conducted by the composer, with performances in Boston and at Carnegie Hall. He and Mr. Adès will give the European premiere of the piece with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra.

Mr. Gerstein made his Philadelphia Orchestra debut in 2007. Mr. Gerstein’s most recent recording, Scriabin’s Prometheus: The Poem of Fire with the Oslo Philharmonic and Vasily Petrenko, was released on LAWO Classics this fall. Future releases include Busoni’s Piano Concerto on Myrios Classics in spring 2019 and a disc of Tchaikovsky piano concertos next summer, part of Mr. Bychkov’s Tchaikovsky Project for Decca with the Czech Philharmonic. Recent recordings for Myrios include The Gershwin Moment, released earlier this year; Liszt’s Transcendental Études, picked by the New Yorker as one of 2016’s notable recordings; and Tchaikovsky’s First Concerto in the composer’s own final version. Mr. Gerstein was brought up in the former Soviet Union studying both classical and jazz piano and at age 14 moved to the US where he was the youngest student to attend Boston’s Berklee College of Music. In 2010 he was awarded both an Avery Fisher Career Grant and the Gilmore Artist Award, which provided the funds for him to commission new works from Timo Andres, Chick Corea, Alexander Goehr, Oliver Knussen, and Brad Mehldau. Mr. Gerstein taught at the Stuttgart Musik Hochschule from 2007 to 2017, and beginning this year will teach as part of the Kronberg Academy’s newly announced Sir András Schiff Performance Program for Young Artists. 31 Framing the Program No reason to get too scared, but the program today Parallel Events perfectly suits the Halloween season, presented from a 1874 Music French perspective under the direction of guest conductor Franck Bruckner Louis Langrée.

TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE The present translation was undertaken by the writer some two years ago, on the appearance of the first German edition. Oskar Fried had made known to us in Berlin the overwhelming beauty of Mahler's music, and it was intended that the book should pave the way for Mahler in England. From his appearance there, we hoped that his genius as man and musi- cian would be recognised, and also that his example would put an end to the intolerable existing chaos in reproductive music- making, wherein every quack may succeed who is unscrupulous enough and wealthy enough to hold out until he becomes "popular." The English musician's prayer was: "God pre- serve Mozart and Beethoven until the right man comes," and this man would have been Mahler. Then came Mahler's death with such appalling suddenness for our youthful enthusiasm. Since that tragedy, "young" musicians suddenly find themselves a generation older, if only for the reason that the responsibility of continuing Mah- ler's ideals now rests upon their shoulders in dead earnest.

Volume I Music is a language that can be used to express a vast range of ideas and emotions. It has been part of the human experience since before recorded history, and has established a unique place in our consciousness, and in our hearts by expressing that which words alone cannot express. ii My individual interest in the musical language is its use in telling stories, and in particular in the form of composition referred to as program music; music that tells a story on its own without the aid of images, dance or text. The topic of this dissertation follows this line of interest with specific focus on the compositional techniques and creative approach that divide program music across a representational spectrum from literal to abstract.

  • Un Paysage Par Henri Duparc
    Un paysage par Henri Duparc (1848 – 1933) Au sein de sa collection d’arts graphiques, le musée Lambinet conserve des pièces fort rares, parfois inédites, sans qu’aucun lien ne puisse être établi entre elles, et désolidarisées de fonds ou de grands ensembles auxquels elles auraient pu appartenir. C’est le cas d’un pastel sur papier chamois, de taille modeste (36 x 43cm), non signé, portant la mention manuscrite suivante : « pastel par Duparc, compositeur de mélodies magnifiques ». Donné à la ville de Versailles le 21 juin 1949 par Mme Gaston Pastre, par l’intermédiaire de Jean Gallotti, ce pastel reste énigmatique. Si l’activité de pastelliste du musicien est connue et citée par tous les littérateurs, surtout au moment où sa carrière de compositeur semble remise en cause par maladie nerveuse qui le frappe, aucune autre œuvre comparable n’a été portée à notre connaissance : aucune ne semble figurer à l’inventaire des collections publiques françaises, aucune n’apparaît même sur le marché de l’art. Pratiquée en amateur, cette activité anonyme est donc à envisager dans le cadre de la vie privée, et comme relevant de l’intime. Si l’on est enclin à croire l’inscription manuscrite de Mme Pastre, c’est aussi puisque M. Gaston Pastre, (1898-1939) écrivain, fut un contemporain et ami du compositeur. Plusieurs témoignages nous permettent en effet de savoir qu’Henri Duparc faisait don de tableaux ou de dessins à ses amis. Nous avons cherché enfin à entrer en contact avec les héritiers de la famille, qui pourront, nous l’espérons, montrer d’autres œuvres de la main de l’artiste.

  • Ravel & Rachmaninoff
    NOTES ON THE PROGRAM BY LAURIE SHULMAN, ©2017 2018 Winter Festival America, Inspiring: Ravel & Rachmaninoff ONE-MINUTE NOTES Martinů: Thunderbolt P-47. A World War II American fighter jet was the inspiration for this orchestral scherzo. Martinů pays homage to technology, the machine age and the brave pilots who risked death, flying these bombers to win the war. Ravel: Piano Concerto in G Major. Ravel was enthralled by American jazz, whose influence is apparent in this jazzy concerto. The pristine slow movement concerto evokes Mozart’s spirit in its clarity and elegance. Ravel’s wit sparkles in the finale, proving that he often had a twinkle in his eye. Rachmaninoff: Symphonic Dances. Rachmaninoff’s final orchestral work, a commission from the Philadelphia Orchestra, brings together Russian dance and Eastern European mystery. Listen for the “Dies irae” at the thrilling close. MARTINŮ: Thunderbolt P-47, Scherzo for Orchestra, H. 309 BOHUSLAV MARTINŮ Born: December 8, 1890, in Polička, Czechoslovakia Died: August 28, 1959, in Liestal, nr. Basel, Switzerland Composed: 1945 World Premiere: December 19, 1945, in Washington, DC. Hans Kindler conducted the National Symphony. NJSO Premiere: These are the NJSO premiere performances. Duration: 11 minutes Between 1941 and 1945, Republic Aviation built 15,636 P-47 Thunderbolt fighter planes. Introduced in November 1942, the aircraft was a bomber equipped with machine guns. British, French and American air forces used them for the last three years of the war. Early in 1945, the Dutch émigré conductor Hans Kindler commissioned Bohuslav Martinů—himself an émigré from Czechoslovakia who had resided in the United States since March 1941—to write a piece for the National Symphony Orchestra.

  • A BIOGRAPHY of JOSEPH MAURICE RAVEL by Matthew Dechirico
    A BIOGRAPHY OF JOSEPH MAURICE RAVEL by Matthew DeChirico Joseph Maurice Ravel, who lived from March 1875 to December 1937 was a French composer born in the Basque region of France His mother of Basque-Spanish heritage from Madrid Spain had a strong influence on his life and his music. His father was a Swiss inventor and industrialist from France. Both parents provided a happy and stimulating life for Joseph and his younger brother. His parents encouraged his musical pursuits and sent him at age 14 to the Conservatoire de Paris first as a preparatory student and eventually as a piano major. Although intellectually bright and well read, he was not successful academically even as his musicianship matured. Considered “very gifted” he nevertheless was called “somewhat heedless” in his studies. He failed to meet the requirements of earning a competitive medal and was expelled. He returned three years later studying with Gabriel Faure focusing on composition rather than piano. He was again dismissed for having won neither the fugue nor the composition prize. He remained an auditor with Faure until he left the Conservatoire in 1903. During his years at the Conservatoire, Ravel tried numerous times to win the prestigious Prix de Rome but to no avail: he was probably considered too radical by the conservatives. Ravel’s “String Quartet in F” is now a standard work of chamber music, though at the time it was criticized and found lacking academically. His first significant work, “Habanera” for two pianos was later transcribed into the third movement of his “Rapsodie Espagnole”.

  • 1) Aspects of the Musical Careers of Grieg, Debussy and Ravel
    Edvard Grieg, Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Biographical issues and a comparison of their string quartets Juliette L. Appold I. Grieg, Debussy and Ravel – Biographical aspects II. Connections between Grieg, Debussy and Ravel III. Observations on their string quartets I. Grieg, Debussy and Ravel – Biographical aspects Looking at the biographies of Grieg, Debussy and Ravel makes us realise, that there are few, yet some similarities in the way their career as composers were shaped. In my introductory paragraph I will point out some of these aspects. The three composers received their first musical training in their childhood, between the age of six (Grieg) and nine (Debussy) (Ravel was seven). They all entered the conservatory in their early teenage years (Debussy was 10, Ravel 14, Grieg 15 years old) and they all had more or less difficult experiences when they seriously thought about a musical career. In Grieg’s case it happened twice in his life. Once, when a school teacher ridiculed one of his first compositions in front of his class-mates.i The second time was less drastic but more subtle during his studies at the Leipzig Conservatory until 1862.ii Grieg had despised the pedagogical methods of some teachers and felt that he did not improve in his composition studies or even learn anything.iii On the other hand he was successful in his piano-classes with Carl Ferdinand Wenzel and Ignaz Moscheles, who had put a strong emphasis on the expression in his playing.iv Debussy and Ravel both were also very good piano players and originally wanted to become professional pianists.
