[…] of each sound, to the nature of individual connections. […] As the artists relax into their project, Kremer plays longer passages – entire movements of Bach, of Schumann – stopping to focus on sounds that fascinate or trouble him. […] As Kremer searches for sounds and gestures, and then rehearses his own actions, these tapes explore an entire strand of Western music as embodied in one musician. Having edited the tapes with Freiburg’s Hans Peter Haller, relentlessly organizing and reorganizing sounds until something composed emerged, Nono struggled to complete the violin part in time. According to Kremer’s account, he eventually, ‘nervously, apologetically’ proffered ‘some bits of manuscript paper: here a line, there four bars, there three lines, and said with almost fatherly calm: “No problem, no worry, I’ve got it all. Tonight I’ll write it.” There were still 36 hours to the premiere.’ Dissatisfied with that premiere or at least […]

Metropolitan Opera – Wagner’s Gotterdammerung. May 4, 2019.
Metropolitan Opera at Lincoln Center. Balcony (Seat E115, $152.50). Story. See previous post. Conductor – Philippe Jordan. Norns – Ronnita Miller, Elizabeth Bishop, Wendy Bryn Harmer; Brunnhilde – Christine Goerke, Siegfried – Andreas Schager, Gunther – Evgeny Nikitin, Hagen – Eric Owens, Gutrune – Edith Haller, Waltraute – Michaela Schuster, Alberich – Tomasz Konieczny, Woglinde – Amanda Woodbury, Wellgunde – Samantha Hankey, Flosshilde – Tamara Mumford.

Even though this was the longest of the four operas, and perhaps even the most dramatic (we have deceit, jealousy, betrayal, death, self-immolation, and – depends on how you want to look at it – annihilation or redemption, it’s not the most popular of the four. We saw for the four operas performances number 171, […]

Schütz : Auferstehungshistorie - La Chapelle Rhénane
Heinrich Schütz : Auferstehungshistorie and Musicalische Exequien from La Chapelle Rhénane led by Benoît Haller. La Chapelle Rhénane built its reputation on Schütz, with four of its original eight recordings dedicated to the composer. This acclaimed series is now being re-issued by Christophus Records, with new recordings planned for 2019. Schütz (1585-1672) was born one hundred years before J S Bach. He studied with Monteverdi, and is a link between the Italian and German baroque. He lived through the Thirty Years War, perhaps the most savage conflict Europe experienced before the 20th century. Millions were killed, entire regions devastated. Although Schütz worked in relative safety for the Elector of Saxony, the world around him had been in turmoil since the Reformation. For Schütz, comfort was not a given. Schütz founded what is now the Staatskapelle Dresden but he didn't have job security. When he fell out of favour at […]
