  • Interview with David Alan Miller
    The Classical Beat By Stephen Dankner INTERVIEW WITH MAESTRO DAVID ALAN MILLER Looking as if a few choice, slightly seedy blocks were snatched up from Greenwich Village and plunked down in Albany’s central city district, Lark Street is a fascinating, hip place. With a row of laid-back watering holes, eateries and latte dens, it was a good place to sit down for awhile with David Alan Miller, the conductor and Music Director of the Albany Symphony Orchestra over a cup of coffee. Miller is a young and energetic man, charming and likeable, irrepressible and ardent. He has the same messianic zeal that Leonard Bernstein had – a mission to convince you of his love for music – all kinds of it – and to prove to you, through the force of his high strung but always cheerful personality, that classical music is really important – it’s not just entertainment or an indulgence for an elite class of sedate listeners. No, it’s absolutely necessary. Listen to him for just a few minutes and you’ll be convinced; I have rarely encountered a more articulate spokesman for the cause. Miller has a talent for speaking off the cuff; his knowledge of music history and the full repertoire of classical music enable him to fire off facts, figures and opinions at his popular pre-concert conversations. It’s clear that audiences love him, judging by the filled seats for the talks one hour before the ASO concerts. Right about now he’s thinking seriously about next season. All orchestras have to schedule their programs at least a year in advance.

For several years, we’ve presented pieces commissioned by the best modern composers for our talented musicians, continuing the BPO’s tradition of contributing to classical music’s future. In 1946, the BPO made the premiere recording of the Shostakovich Leningrad Symphony. Music director Lukas Foss was also a renowned composer who regularly programmed world premieres of the works of himself and his contemporaries.

Murray Abraham, narrator Welcome to the Albany Symphony’s 2020-21 Season Re-Imagined! The one thing I have missed more than anything else during the past few months has been spending time with you and our brilliant Albany Symphony musicians, discovering, exploring, and celebrating great musical works together. Our musicians and I are thrilled to be back at work, bringing you established masterpieces and gorgeous new works in the comfort and convenience of your own home. Originally conceived to showcase triumph over adversity, inspired by the example of Beethoven and his big birthday in December, our season’s programming continues to shine a light on the ways musical visionaries create great art through every season of life. We hope that each program uplifts and inspires you, and brings you some respite from the day-to-day worries of this uncertain world. It is always an honor to stand before you with our extraordinarily gifted musicians, even if we are now doing it virtually. Thank you so much for being with us; we have a glorious season of life- affirming, deeply moving music ahead.

S. 2 von 20 Gunter E. Grimm Faust-Opern Eine Skizze Das Faust-Thema stellt ein hervorragendes Beispiel dar, wie ein Stoff, der den dominanten Normen seines Entstehungszeitalters entspricht, bei seiner Wande- rung durch verschiedene Epochen sich den jeweils herrschenden mentalen Para- digmen anpasst. Dabei verändert der ursprüngliche Stoff sowohl seinen Charakter als auch seine Aussage. Schaubild der Faust-Opern Die „Historia von Dr. Faust“ von 1587 entspricht ganz dem christlichen Geist der Epoche. Doktor Faust gilt als Inbegriff eines hybriden Gelehrten, der über das dem Menschen zugestandene Maß an Gelehrsamkeit und Erkenntnis hinausstrebt und zu diesem Zweck einen Pakt mit dem Teufel abschließt. Er wollte, wie es im Volksbuch heißt, „alle Gründ am Himmel vnd Erden erforschen / dann sein Für- GUNTER E. GRIMM: Faust-Opern. Eine Skizze.

With texts taken from Luther’s translation of the Bible and an emphasis on comforting the living for their loss and on hope of the Resurrection, the work is deeply rooted in the tradition of Bach and Schütz, but is vastly different in character from the Latin Requiem of Catholic tradition with its evocation of the Day of Judgement and prayers for mercy on the souls of the dead. The success of Marin Alsop as Music Director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra was recognized when, in 2009, her tenure was extended to 2015. In 2012 she took up the post of Chief Conductor of the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra, where she steers the orchestra in its artistic and creative programming, recording ventures and its education and outreach activities.
