    BACH TO PARKER Thomas Gould FOREWORD This album began life as a recital programme in which I interspersed movements from Bach’s six Sonatas and Partitas for unaccompanied violin with some of the new works recorded here for the first time. My intention was to show that the extended violin techniques called upon by living composers had evolved from the demanding contrapuntal writing of Bach, whose mighty Chaconne is considered as the summit of the solo violin repertoire. All composers writing solo violin music face the challenge of composing for an essentially monophonic instrument, and it is interesting to see the points of comparison and departure in the way the composers featured on this disc address this inherent limitation. In the case of Mark Bowden’s Lines Written a Few Miles Below and Nico Muhly’s Long Line a solution is provided by technology, as both pieces utilise a pre-recorded backing track. The final track on this album is a performance of Miles Davis’s classic bebop tune Donna Lee (with its close association to the great Charlie Parker) in which my solo is a loose transcription of bassist Jaco Pastorius’s famous solo from his version of this tune on the album Jaco, and complements the preceding piece BoBop by John Hawkins. I’d particularly like to thank David and Mary Bowerman, Raphaël Mouterde, David O’Brien and Sam Hogarth, who transcribed the solo on Donna Lee . I hope you enjoy the journey from Bach to Parker as much as I did in selecting and recording this repertoire, and I hope that many of the new works will take their deserving place in the repertoire of music composed for solo violin.

  • 11Concurso Internacional De Violín Pablo Sarasate
    CONCURSO INTERNACIONAL DE VIOLÍN PABLO SARASATE 11 PABLO SARASATE INTERNATIONAL VIOLIN COMPETITION Presidente del jurado: Vladimir Spivakov • Pamplona - España •14 al 21 de septiembre de 2011 PRUEBAS ELIMINATORIAS Teatro Gayarre 15-18 de septiembre Las fotografías utilizadas en este folleto pertenecen al Archivo Municipal del Ayuntamiento de Pamplona ELIMINATORIAS Pablo Sarasate (Pamplona 1844 - Biarritz 1908) arasate nació en Pamplona el 10 de marzo de 1844. Fue bautizado como SMartín Melitón y conocido como Martín Sarasate hasta 1869, cuando adoptó el nombre artístico de “Pablo”. Su padre, Miguel Sarasate, era músico militar, lo que favoreció su temprano contacto con la música y la revelación de unas dotes extraordinarias para el violín. Debido a los diversos destinos militares del cabeza de familia, los Sarasate vivieron en Valladolid, Santiago de Compostela, La Coruña y Pontevedra. En Galicia Sarasate recibió clases de diversos profesores locales y allí comenzó su andadura como niño prodigio: el 13 de enero de 1852, con sólo siete años, dio su primer concierto público en La Coruña. Cuatro meses después se presentó en Madrid, donde actuó en veladas privadas y en varios conciertos celebrados en el Teatro del Circo. En esas primeras actuaciones los críticos reseñaron ya algunas cualidades del futuro virtuoso: una afinación perfecta y una prodigiosa habilidad. Gracias a una pensión de la Condesa de Espoz y Mina, en 1853 pudo trasladarse a Madrid para perfeccionarse en el violín con Manuel Rodríguez. Durante su estancia en la corte se prodigó en veladas y conciertos, destacando sus actuaciones en el Teatro Real, en marzo de 1854, y un año más tarde en la corte ante la reina Isabel II, quien le concedió una ayuda para que pudiera completar su formación en París.

  • Shostakovich (1906-1975)
    RUSSIAN, SOVIET & POST-SOVIET CONCERTOS A Discography of CDs and LPs Prepared by Michael Herman Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) Born in St. Petersburg. He entered the Petrograd Conservatory at age 13 and studied piano with Leonid Nikolayev and composition with Maximilian Steinberg. His graduation piece, the Symphony No. 1, gave him immediate fame and from there he went on to become the greatest composer during the Soviet Era of Russian history despite serious problems with the political and cultural authorities. He also concertized as a pianist and taught at the Moscow Conservatory. He was a prolific composer whose compositions covered almost all genres from operas, ballets and film scores to works for solo instruments and voice.
