Great swathes have been lost, but much survives. Composers were largely local men, and texts would be pass around, taking different settings in each town. There are composers whose reputation nowadays rests on a single piece, if that. This is something of the back story to counter-tenor […]

Opera and concert tally for 2019
Wonderful to have attended so many concerts of contemporary music this year, not least in order to welcome so many women composers to the list, some for the first time. No apologies for Beethoven, Wagner, Mozart, et al.; nor for four absorbing encouters with the music of Helmut Lachenmann, although it was at least as delightful to add to them three with the music of Olga Neuwirth. Beethoven, Wagner 11 Mozart 10 Haydn, Schumann, Strauss 6 Bach, Brahms, Mahler, Tchaikovsky 5 Bartók, Berlioz, Handel, Lachenmann, Ligeti, Prokofiev, Puccini, Schubert, Stockhausen 4 Boulez, Debussy, Dvořak, Janáček, Liszt, Messiaen, Olga Neuwirth, Rameau, Ravel, Saint-Saëns, Schoenberg, Varèse 3 Anahita Abbasi, Benjamin, Berg, Bruckner, Cage, Elgar, Peter Eötvös, Franck, Henze, Purcell.

Concert tally for 2019
Here, as promised, is my tally of concerts (not operas, for which click here) attended during 2019. I think I have included everything, even those not reviewed, but may have forgotten or miscounted the odd thing. One composer is counted once per concert, whether for three minutes of Webern or three hours of Messiaen. Opera performances in concert fall under opera, but individual arias etc. are listed here. It is encouraging, I think, to see such a variety of contemporary composers featured and to see Haydn's music, which one can never, ever hear enough, at joint second. (No slight to Schumann intended.) A consolidated performance list of operas and concerts will follow. In the meantime, Happy Beethoven Year! Beethoven 11 Haydn, Schumann 6 Bach, Brahms, Mahler, Mozart 5 Bartók, Lachenmann, Ligeti, Schubert, Stockhausen, Strauss 4 Boulez, Debussy, Liszt, Messiaen, Prokofiev, Ravel, Schoenberg, Tchaikovsky, Varèse […]
