Despite this he is arguably England’s greatest composer some of whose orchestral music has traveled around the world more than any of his compatriots. In addition to the Conceros, his 3 Symphonies and Enigma Variations are his other orchestral masterpieces. His many other works for orchestra, including the Pomp and Circumstance Marches, Falstaff and Cockaigne Overture have been recorded numerous times.

    TERI “Natsumatsuri” Suzuki Method Summer Festival at Home 2020 Due to the spread of COVID-19, TERI had no choice but to cancel the 69th Summer School. This is disappointing for everyone. Therefore, TERI decided to offer an opportunity to share a fun time with Suzuki families from all over the world by planning an online “Natsumatsuri” (Summer Festival) which will be held on the first weekend in August. "Natsumatsuri" will take place over two days, August 1st (Sat.) and 2nd (Sun.), with a variety of programs planned. This event will be streamed to the world from the TERI hall in Matsumoto, the birthplace of the Suzuki Method. In consideration of the risk of COVID- 19 infections, the number of people gathering in Matsumoto will be kept to a minimum. On the first day, a special video of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki and a lecture by the TERI President, Dr. Hayano, will be broadcasted. On the second day, we will have fun group lessons for each instrument with TERI Special Instructors followed by a live stream of their performances. We invite you to join us via YouTube Live. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVj6m1TSTu476lH67IVVIOg We are looking forward to you joining us online August 1st and 2nd!

    Press Release February 5, 2014 TOKYO PHILHARMONIC TO MAKE THAILAND DEBUT AS PART OF 100 TH ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR Photo by Takashi Iijima Photo by K. Miura Concert Conducted by Eiji Oue, Sunday, March 23, 2014 at Prince Mahidol Hall, Mahidol University to Take Place on Third Anniversary of 2011 Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan Pronunciation Guide: Eiji Oue = A-jee OO-way The Tokyo Philharmonic has the longest history and tradition of any orchestra in Japan, having been originally established in Nagoya in 1911. As plans were being made for its centenary celebrations in 2011, a devastating earthquake and tsunami struck east Japan, challenging the nation with an unprecedented crisis. The orchestra’s centenary plans were scuttled, as an entire culture adjusted to a solemn new reality. A cherished dream of the Tokyo Philharmonic will finally come true, with a 100 th anniversary world tour that will encompass six countries on three continents. Internationally renowned Japanese conductor Eiji Oue will lead the orchestra for the tour. The first concert – Tuesday, March 11, 2014, 7:30 PM at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall in New York City – will mark the U.S. debut of the orchestra, as well as the third anniversary (to the day) of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. After New York, the Tokyo Philharmonic will appear in Madrid, Paris, London, Singapore and Bangkok. 2 “We are delighted to realize this world tour as the culmination of our 100 th anniversary celebrations,” says Ayuko Matsuda, Director of Public Relations for the orchestra. “For us, it is a significant step, as the sole Japanese orchestra marking the start of its second century.

Held every three years, the competition was established in 1997. In keeping with Mrs. Johansen’s wishes, the competition encourages younger musicians with significant prize awards at a time when they need it most – when they must make decisions about continuing with their dedication to music, or perhaps moving away from it as they look to college and other interests. Recalling a New York City gold medal she won when she was just 17 years old, Mrs. Johansen credited that experience with helping her decide to make music her life-long effort. By establishing the Johansen International Competition (JIC), she hoped to pass that encouragement on to new generations of string players. Mrs. Johansen expressed these sentiments during an interview about her decision to fund the competition and put it under the guidance of the FMMC Foundation.

Laureates of "The Indianapolis" have emerged as outstanding artists in concert halls across the globe. For 17 days every four years, 40 of the world's brightest talents come here to perform some of the most beautiful music ever written before enthusiastic audiences in venues throughout the city including the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center, Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center and Hilbert Circle Theatre, where finalists collaborate with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Of the prizes awarded, perhaps the most astonishing is the loan of the 1683 ex-Gingold Stradivari violin, which is made available to one of the Laureates for the four years following the Competition. Under the guidance of Thomas J. Beczkiewicz, Founding Director, and the late Josef Gingold, who had served on the juries of every major violin competition in the world, the IVCI became known by the musical and media communities as one of the world's most compelling competitions.
