Ilya Kaler won Genoa's Paganini Competition in 1981, followed by the same results at the Sibelius in 1985 in Helsinki, and at the Tchaikovsky in Mr. Kaler's native Moscow in 1986. Mr. Kaler, since June 2001 Professor of Music (the Linda and Jack Gill Chair in Violin) at the Indiana University School of Music in Bloomington, also plays the modern instrument of a champion, a violin made for him in 1998-99 by the renowned American violin maker Joseph Curtin of Ann Arbor, Michigan. It is a violin that wondrously sustains a puri­ ty and volume of sound with the expressive bow technique that is Mr. Kaler's signa­ ture. Looking ahead, the ICO's "Season of Champions" will conclude with the 2001 gold medal winner of the world's most prestigious piano competition, the Van Cliburn at Fort Worth, Texas. There, Olga Kern dazzled with performances in the final round of concerti by Mozart and Rachmaninoff. In May with the ICO Ms. Kern will make her Indianapolis debut playing the virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 1 by Dmitri Shostakovich. Selections from Four Cantatas Johann Sebastian Bach, born March 21, 1685, at Eisenach; died July 28, 1750, at Leipzig- Aria: "Schafe konnen sicher weiden" ("Sheep may safely graze") from the Cantata Was mir behagt, ist nur muntrejagd! ("What pleases me is only the live­ ly hunt"), BWV 208 (Transcribed for strings, two flutes and two oboes) Sonata from Cantata Der Himmel lacht! die Erde jubilieret ("The Heavens laugh! The Earth rings with glory"), BWV 31 Sinfonia from Cantata Ich steh mit einem Fud im Grahe ("I stand with one foot in the grave"), BWV 156 Sinfonia from Oster-Oratorium ("Easter Oratorio"), BWV 249 This "Season of Champions" kicks off with music by the composer whose genius is appreciated the world over, even though in life he never left a geographic circle with a diameter of scarcely 200 miles in what is now Germany. From the oeuvre of Johann Sebastian Bach, Maestro Kirk Trevor has collected music from one secular and three sacred cantatas. Eighteenth Season First Concert PROGRAM NOTES The first selection is drawn from the earliest, and perhaps most well-known, secular cantata composed by Bach. Written in 1716 as Tajelmusik (that is, "table music," to accompany the birthday banquet) for the hunting lodge of Duke Christian of Saxe- Weissenfels, the cantata was in celebration of the royal's 35th birthday. Bach came to compose the work as a part of his duties as Konzertmeister of the court of Duke Ernst Wilhelm at Weimar, a close friend of the honoree.
