Luigi Dallapiccola, Part I, 2024
This Week in Classical Music: February 26, 2024. Missed dates and Luigi Dallapiccola. For the last three weeks, we’ve been preoccupied with Alban Berg, and we feel good about it: Berg was a revolutionary composer (not by his constitution but by the nature of his creative talent) and he should be celebrated, even if our time, philistine and woke, doesn’t suit him well. The problem we have is that we missed several very significant anniversaries: for example, George Frideric Handel‘s – he was born on February 23rd of 1685; also, one of the most interesting German composers of the 16th century, Michael Praetorius, was born on February 15th of 1571. We missed the birthday of Francesco Cavalli, a very important composer in the history of opera, on February 14th of 1602. Two famous Italians were also born during those three weeks, Archangelo Corelli on February 17th of 1653 and Luigi […]

Neuburger/Boulez Ensemble/Roth - Debussy and Manoury, 29 October 2023
Pierre Boulez Saal Debussy: Sonata for flute, viola, and harp Manoury: Passacaille pour Tokyo Debussy: Sonata for cello and piano Manoury: Grammaires du sonore Jean-Frédéric Neuburger (piano)Boulez EnsembleFrançois-Xavier Roth (conductor)Images: Jakob TillmannIntelligent and revealing programming is always a joy. François-Xavier Roth ranks highly among those conductors regularly offering it. When married to equally intelligent and revealing performances it becomes all the more a joy, such as in this concert from the Boulez Ensemble, founded by Daniel Barenboim to include members of the Staatskapelle Berlin and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra. Two ensemble pieces by Philippe Manoury were prefaced by two late Debussy sonatas, the formal implications of which were highly suggestive and felt to be such for the Manoury works. First, we heard Debussy’s Sonata for flute, viola, and harp, an extraordinary work I do not think I have ever heard live before. The combination may be unusual, but surely is […]
