  • Recordings of Mahler Symphony No. 4
    Recordings of Mahler Symphony No. 4 by Stan Ruttenberg, President, Colorado MahlerFest SUMMARY After listening to each recording once or twice to get the general feel, on bike rides, car trips, while on the Internet etc, I then listened more carefully, with good headphones, following the score. They are listed in the survey in about the order in which I listened, and found to my delight, and disgust, that as I went on I noticed more and more details to which attention should be paid. Lack of time and adequate gray matter prevented me from going back and re-listening all over again, except for the Mengelberg and Horenstein recordings, and I did find a few points to change or add. I found that JH is the ONLY conductor to have the piccolos play out adequately in the second movement, and Claudio Abbado with the Vienna PO is the only conductor who insisted on the two horn portamenti in the third movement.. Stan's prime picks: Horenstein, Levine, Reiner, Szell, Skrowaczewski, von Karajan, Abravanel, in that order, but the rankings are very close. Also very good are Welser- Most, and Klemperer with Radio Orchestra Berlin, and Berttini at Cologne. Not one conductor met all my tests of faithfulness to the score in all the too many felicities therein, but these did the best and at the same time produced a fine overall performance. Mengelberg, in a class by himself, should be heard for reference. Stan's soloist picks: Max Cencic (boy soprano with Nanut), in a class by himself. Then come, not in order, Davrath (Abravanel), Mathes (von Karajan), Trötschel (Klemperer BRSO), Raskin (Szell), Blegen (Levine), Della Casa (Reiner), Irmgard Seefried (Walter), Jo Vincent (Mengelberg), Ameling (Haitink RCOA), Ruth Zeisek (Gatti), Margaret Price with Horenstein, and Kiri Te Kanawa (Solti), Szell (Rattle broadcast), and Battle (Maazel).

Today, Liszt’s stature in the music world seems diminished—his music is not all that regularly performed, aside from a few works, such as the B minor piano sonata, that have never gone out of favor; and he is more a name in the history books than an indispensable part of our concert life.

  • 200 Anos De Franz Liszt: II. Transcrições E Experiências Harmônicas
    200 anos de Franz Liszt: II. Transcrições e Experiências harmônicas Transcrições “Franz Liszt, am Flügel phantasieren”, pintura de 1840 de Josef Danhauser A metade da obra catalogada de Liszt (no total de quase 1000) são transcrições das obras de outros compositores para piano solo – como sinfonias, canções e obras camerísticas. Mas Liszt é o primeiro pianista a dar à transcrição um papel que vai muito além de uma “redução” funcional de podermos ver uma obra grandiosa resumida em duas claves, pois ele transforma a transcrição em uma verdadeira tradução da obra para uma nova linguagem, a linguagem do piano. São famosas as suas transcrições das sinfonias de Beethoven, mas há também a transcrição da Sinfonia “Fantástica” de Berlioz, do “Liebestod” do Tristão e Isolda de Wagner, de diversas canções de Schubert e até do Requiem de Mozart. O que chama a atenção nas transcrições não é apenas que elas acabaram contribuindo para a própria história da escrita pianística ao buscarem recursos que dessem conta de outras sonoridades, texturas e dimensões, mas também como Liszt concebia a transcrição como uma obra própria, que deveria se justificar independentemente da obra original e por isso demandava necessidades próprias, que ele poderia resolver com compassos totalmente novos. Como exemplo, compare-se a belíssima canção “Kriegers Ahnung” do ciclo Schwanengesang (1828) de Schubert: [audio:http://euterpe.blog.br/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Schubert-Lieder-D-95 7-Schwanengesang-02.-Kriegers-Ahnung-D.-Fischer-Dieskau-G.- Moore-1957.mp3|titles=Schubert – Lieder D 957 ‘Schwanengesang’ – 02.

Baurichter- Jonkers BEZOEK AAN WILLEM NOSKE ======================= Kort na de interessante bijeenkomst van onze leden ten huize van Willem Noske in Den Haag op 10 december 1988, werd onze toenmalige gastheer ernstig ziek. Na een· verblijf van ongeveer 4 maanden in het ziekenhuis is hij gelukkig weer thuis. Hoewel zijn gezondheid helaas niet meer de oude is, heeft hij zich weer met grote energie op zijn werk gestort: een alomvattend onderzoek van het muziekleven in Nederland van vroeger tijden tot nu. Ondanks zijn drukke werkzaamheden, heeft de heer Noske op 3 augustus 1989 een kleine afvaardiging van het bestuur van onze vereniging willen ontvangen, bestaande uit A. van Kapel en ondergetekende. Het bezoek had ten doel, om namens onze Vereniging van onze belangstelling voor zijn gezondheid te doen blijken en hem onze beste wensen voor de toekomst over te brengen, onder aanbieding van een fleurige bloemenhulde. De heer Noske toonde zich verrast door deze attentie en ontving ons aller­ vriendelijkst. Wij kunnen U verzekeren dat hij er uitstekend uitziet. Er ontspon zich onmiddellijk een levendig gesprek, waarin onze gastheer ons op boeiende wijze deelgenoot maakte van allerlei feiten en gebeurlijkheden, die bij zijn onderzoekingen aan het licht zijn gekomen en die tot dusverre onbekend zijn gebleven. Ook is hem gebleken, dat zich op vele gebieden in de loop der jaren vele misvattingen hebben gevormd, die een vertekend beeld van de historie geven en die in de literatuur een hardnekkig leven lijden doordat zij van generatie op generatie zonder verder onderzoek zijn overgenomen.
