[…] the Boston premiere of Stravinsky’s Agon, which used up so much rehearsal time that Bruckner’s Seventh, which rounded out the program, suffered in accuracy. I wonder if Munch really loved Bruckner, in any case. In the summer of 1959 I was a junior student at the Berkshire Music Center studying composition with Lukas Foss [more HERE]. Leonard Bernstein normally administered the conducting program at Tanglewood, but he was somewhere else that summer, and Eleazar de Carvalho had taken charge. A handful of “active conductors” got extensive directing time with the BMC orchestra; Charles Dutoit was one of these, as were Harold Farberman of the BSO’s percussion section (30 years later I had very good lessons from him at the Conductors Institute in South Carolina), and a very able Norwegian, Sverre Bruland; the younger conducting students, not “actives,” included John Harbison.

Anglais - Contemporary opera: A conversation with Vasco Mendonça
[…] What are you next projects? I’m having my violin piece A Box of Darkness with a Bird in Its Heart – which was commissioned by the Philharmonie de Paris and Casa da Música – performed by Diana Tishchenko all over Europe. At the end of March, I’ll have a premiere with the Ballet national de Marseille at La Criée – Théâtre National de Marseille of the stage music I wrote for choreographer Tânia Carvalho, and this piece will then go to the Théâtre du Châtelet (in collaboration with the Théâtre de la Ville). This summer I’m recording a portrait CD with the percussion ensemble Drumming GP, for which I still have to write a new piece for voice and percussion. Then a string trio for cellist Anssi Karttunen’s group, and then back to opera – this time, children´s style! Interview by Thibault Vicq Photo […]
