    Quartetto Takács - quartetto d'archi Edward Dusinberre violino Harumi Rhodes violino Richard O'Neill viola András Fejér violoncello Il Quartetto Takács, celebre a livello mondiale, sta entrando nella sua quarantasettesima stagione. Edward Dusinberre, Harumi Rhodes (violini), Richard O'Neill (viola) e András Fejér (violoncello) sono entusiasti di portare a compimento diversi progetti innovativi per la stagione 2021-22. Con il virtuoso di bandoneon/accordion Julien Labro, il gruppo eseguirà in tutti gli Stati Uniti nuovi lavori composti per loro da Clarice Assad e Bryce Dessner. Questa stagione segna anche la prima mondiale di un nuovo quartetto scritto per il Takács da Stephen Hough, Les Six Rencontres. Il Takács registrerà questo lavoro straordinario per Hyperion Records, in combinazione con quartetti di Ravel e Dutilleux. Durante lo scorso anno, il Takács ha accolto l'arrivo del violista vincitore del Grammy, Richard O'Neill, facendo due nuove registrazioni per Hyperion. I quartetti di Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel e Felix Mendelssohn saranno pubblicati nell'autunno del 2021, seguiti nel 2022 da un disco dedicato alle opere 42, 77 e 103 di Haydn. Il Quartetto Takács continua il suo ruolo di artista associato alla Wigmore Hall di Londra anche nella stagione 2021-22, eseguendo quattro concerti. Oltre a molti concerti nel Regno Unito, l'ensemble suonerà in prestigiose sedi europee, tra cui la Philharmonie di Parigi, la Konzerthaus di Berlino e il Teatro Della Pergola di Firenze. Il Takács si esibirà in tutto il Nord America, compresi concerti a New York, Boston, Washington DC, Princeton, Ann Arbor, Berkeley, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Cleveland e Portland.

  • Press Release THOMAS QUASTHOFF
    Machreich Artists Management page | 1 Press Release THOMAS QUASTHOFF PRESS RELEASE German bass-baritone Thomas Quasthoff has decided to say farewell to the concert stage, putting an end to his outstanding career as a singer after nearly 40 years. Mr. Quasthoff says, “After almost 40 years, I have decided to retire from concert life. My health no longer allows me to live up to the high standard that I have always set for my art and myself. I owe a lot to this wonderful profession and leave without a trace of bitterness. On the contrary, I am looking forward to the new challenges that will now enter my life. I would like to thank all my fellow musicians and colleagues, with whom I stood together on stage, all the organizers, and my audience for their loyalty.” Mr. Quasthoff will continue to devote himself intensively to the next generation of singers by teaching, as before, at the Hanns Eisler Academy of Music in Berlin, as well as at international master classes. He has dedicated himself intensely to the Lied genre for years. This devotion inspired him to launch the “Das Lied” international song competition in 2009, over which he will continue to preside as artistic director. In addition, he will be seen on stage as a speaker, at readings, and in the new talk show series, “ Thomas Quasthoffs Nachtgespräche ” at the Konzerthaus Berlin. Trained by Charlotte Lehmann and Ernst Huber-Contwig in Hanover, Mr. Quasthoff launched his career with various competitive successes, including 1 st prize at the ARD Competition in 1988.

  • PDF 139.88KB Rps Abo Salomon Prize 2013
    Press Release For release: Friday 10 January 2014 ‘Unsung heroine’ of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, violinist Catherine Arlidge, a “true advocate of the modern orchestral musician” awarded prestigious RPS/ABO Salomon Prize for orchestral musicians. Catherine Arlidge of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra becomes the first violinist – and only the third ever recipient – of the RPS/ABO Salomon Prize, a prestigious award celebrating the outstanding contribution of orchestral players to the UK’s musical life. The UK boasts many of the world’s finest orchestras, many of which have trophy cabinets bursting with awards in testimony to their brilliance on the concert platform and in the recording studio. Yet, the contribution of individual musicians within an orchestra often goes unnoticed. The Salomon Prize* was created by the Royal Philharmonic Society and Association of British Orchestras in 2011 to celebrate the ‘unsung heroes’ of orchestral life; the orchestral players that make our orchestras great. The award is named after Johann Peter Salomon, violinist and founding member of the Philharmonic Society in 1813. Each year, players in all orchestras across the UK are asked to nominate a colleague who has been ‘an inspiration to their fellow players, fostered greater spirit of teamwork and shown commitment and dedication above and beyond the call of duty’. Catherine Arlidge, Sub Principal of the second violins, who has played with the CBSO for over 20 years, was nominated by her fellow musicians and the CBSO’s management for her creativity, energy and “great skill for motivating and inspiring colleagues and for engaging with her audience”.

  • Scharoun Ensemble Berlin
    SCHAROUN ENSEMBLE BERLIN Founded in 1983 by members of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the Scharoun Ensemble is one of Germany’s leading chamber-music organizations. With its wide repertoire, ranging from composers of the Baroque period by way of Classical and Romantic chamber music to contemporary works, the Scharoun Ensemble has been inspiring audiences in Europe and overseas for more than a quarter of a century. Innovative programming, a refined tonal culture and spirited interpretations are hallmarks of the ensemble, which performs in a variety of instrumental combinations. The permanent core of the Scharoun Ensemble is a classical octet (clarinet, bassoon, horn, two violins, viola, cello and double bass), apart from Wolfram Brandl and Claudio Bohorquez they are made up entirely of members of the Berlin Philharmonic. When called for, the ensemble brings in additional instrumentalists as well as noted conductors. The Scharoun Ensemble has prepared and presented various programmes under the direction of Claudio Abbado, Sir Simon Rattle, Daniel Barenboim and Pierre Boulez. It has also performed with singers including Thomas Quasthoff, Simon Keenlyside and Barbara Hannigan, and, for interdisciplinary projects, the ensemble has engaged such artists as Fanny Ardant, Loriot and Dominique Horwitz. Bridging the gap between tradition and the modern is the Scharoun Ensemble’s principal artistic focus. It has given world premieres of many 20th- and 21st-century compositions while dedicating itself with equal passion to the interpretation of works from past centuries. Among the cornerstones of its repertoire are Franz Schubert’s Octet d803, with which the ensemble made its public debut in 1983, and Ludwig van Beethoven’s Septet Op.20.
