  • The Diggers' Requiem 5 the Diggers' Requiem
    HONOUR THEIR SPIRIT 1918-2018 AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE THE DIGGERS’ REQUIEM SATURDAY 6 OCTOBER 2018 CANBERRA PROGRAM GUIDE The Diggers’ Requiem has been co-commissioned by the Australian War Memorial and the Department of Veterans’ Affairs. The Diggers’ Requiem a été commandé par le Mémorial de guerre d’Australie (Australian War Memorial) et le ministère australien des Anciens Combattants (Department of Veterans’ Affairs). The Diggers’ Requiem wurde vom australischen Kriegerdenkmal und dem australischen Veteranen-Ministerium in Auftrag gegeben. The Diggers’ Requiem band arrangements and concerts in Melbourne and Sydney as well as tonight’s concert in Canberra have been generously supported by the Australian Defence Force. MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF AUSTRALIA The Diggers’ Requiem is a new and bold musical and artistic work. It is evocative and reverent. A century after the Armistice, Australia’s leading composers take us through the brutality, loss and tragedy of the battles of the Somme and beyond, but ultimately also offer solace, hope and peace. This performance, produced by Chris Latham, the Australian War Memorial’s first musical artist-in-residence, boasts a choir of 70 voices, the ringing of 62,000 bells – one for each Australian life lost, and a stirring lone piper lament. It offers a unique opportunity to remember and reflect on the fate of those whose lives were lost and forever changed by this “war to end all wars”. The diggers we are thinking of are now long past, but their contribution remains with us, their spirit lives in us, and tribute is paid to their memory in the fourteen stirring, touching and reflective movements of The Diggers’ Requiem.

  • Benjamin Britten in the Music Culture of the Soviet Union in the 1960S (To the 100Th Anniversary of the Composer's Birth)
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 3 No. 14 [Special Issue - July 2013] Benjamin Britten in the Music Culture of the Soviet Union in the 1960s (to the 100th Anniversary of the Composer's Birth) Alexander Rossinsky Department of Art Altai State University Russia Ekaterina Vorontsova Department of History Altai State University Russia Abstract The period of the 1960-s was difficult and controversial. Former allies of the anti-Hitler coalition turned to be on different sides of the acute ideological struggle which nearly led to the world war. Tremendous work was carried by artists, musicians who united disparate peoples into the community calling for the universal values. The central place in such the sphere of music belongs to one of the greatest composers of the 20th century, Benjamin Britten. Together with the Soviet musicians he pushed the world back from the sharp ideological confrontation. Keywords: B.Brittten, P.Pears, USSR, M.Rostropovich, G.Vishnevskaya, D.Shostakovich, symphonic and chamber music. The events unfolding in the world, which had survived the most destructive war in the history of human civilization, were dramatic and characterised by multi-vector directions of their development. The countries that joined the anti-Hitler coalition in the 40s, in the 60s were experiencing the peak of their ideological hostility, teetering on the verge of unleashing the third world war. At the same time, the Soviet Union, headed the unpredictable and highly controversial leader Nikita Khrushchev, pursued a policy of flirtations with liberalism in an attempt to overcome the cult of personality of Joseph Stalin and remove the notorious “Iron Curtain”, which for decades had protected the USSR from Western influence.

  • String Concert Academy
    STRING CONCERT ACADEMY Leonid Gorokhov Cello The Russian cellist Leonid Gorokhov studied at the St. Petersburg Conservatoire with Anatoli Nikitin and took part in masterclasses with Daniil Shafran. Winner of Concertino Praga (First Prize) and Paris Chamber Music Competition (Premier Grand Prix), Leonid Gorokhov is the only Russian cellist to be awarded the Grand Prix and the First Prize of the Geneva Concours (1986). In 1995 the European Association for Encouragement of the Arts awarded the Cultural Achievement Prize to Leonid Gorokhov for exceptional talent and outstanding artistic accomplishment. In 1991, Leonid Gorokhov appeared as soloist with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic conducted by Lord Menuhin; their strong musical rapport led to further concerto engagements with the Bergen, Berlin & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, English Symphony Orchestra, Sinfonia Varsovia and the Zurich Tonhalle. In 1995, he made a triumphant return to Russia in performances of the Elgar Cello Concerto with the Philharmonia Hungarica, again conducted by Lord Menuhin. Apart from his work as a soloist, he is a founder member of the Hermitage String Trio (playing with Boris Garlitsky, violin, and Alexander Zemstov, viola) and plays regularly as a duo with the pianists Nikolai Demidenko, Niklas Sivelov and Kathryn Stott. Duo recitals have included the Båstad, Belfast, Eilat Winter, Oslo Chamber Music and Petworth Festivals, Munich and Wigmore Hall. Recent engagements have included the Elgar concerto with the Enescu Philharmonic in Bucharest and the Walton Concerto with the Philharmonia Orchestrain the UK. In Australia, his residence at the Townsville Festival found him playing a wide variety of chamber music; in Russia he has performed the rarely played Davidoff Concerto No 2 with the St.

  • L'age D'or of the Chamber Wind Ensemble
    L’Age d’or of the Chamber Wind Ensemble A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Ensembles and Conducting Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Danielle D. Gaudry BM, McGill University, 2000 BE, University of Toronto, 2001 MM, The Pennsylvania State University, 2009 Committee Chair: Terence Milligan, DMA ABSTRACT This document presents a narrative history of the chamber wind ensembles led by Paul Taffanel, Georges Barrère and Georges Longy in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Using different historical approaches, this study examines contemporaneous musical society and the chamber wind ensemble genre to explore the context and setting for the genesis of the Société de musique de chambre pour instruments à vents, the Société moderne des instruments à vents, the Longy Club and the Barrère Ensemble of Wind Instruments. A summary of each ensemble leader’s life and description of the activities of the ensemble, selected repertoire and press reactions towards their performances provide essential insights on each ensemble. In demonstrating their shared origins, ideologies, and similarities in programming philosophies, this document reveals why these chamber wind ensembles created a musical movement, a golden age or age d’or of wind chamber music, affecting the local music scene and continuing to hold influence on today’s performers of wind music.
