Feodor Chaliapin sings - in English - 'The Blind Ploughman,' with orchestra conducted by Rosario Bourdon, recorded by Victor in the Church Building at Camden, New Jersey, on 18 March 1927. From Wikipedia: Feodor Ivanovich Chaliapin... February 13 [O.S. February 1] 1873 – April 12, 1938) was a Russian opera singer. Possessing a deep and expressive bass voice, he enjoyed an important international career at major opera houses and is often credited with establishing the tradition of naturalistic acting in his chosen art form... Feodor Chaliapin was born into a peasant family...His vocal teacher was Dmitri Usatov +••.••(...)). Chaliapin began his career at Tbilisi and at the Imperial Opera in Saint Petersburg in 1894. He was then invited to sing at the Mamontov Private Opera (1896–1899); he first appeared there as Mephistopheles in Gounod's Faust, in which role he achieved considerable success. At Mamontov Chaliapin met Sergei Rachmaninoff +••.••(...)), who was serving as an assistant conductor there and with whom he remained friends for life. Rachmaninoff taught him much about musicianship, including how to analyze a music score, and insisted that Chaliapin learn not only his own roles but also all the other roles in the operas in which he was scheduled to appear. With Rachmaninoff he learned the title role of Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov, which became his signature character. Chaliapin returned the favour by showing Rachmaninoff how he built each of his interpretations around a culminating moment or 'point.' Regardless of where that point was or at which dynamic within that piece, the performer had to know how to approach it with absolute calculation and precision; otherwise, the whole construction of the piece could crumble and the piece could become disjointed. Rachmaninoff put this approach to considerable use when he became a full-time concert-pianist after World War I. On the strength of his Mamontov appearances, the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow engaged Chaliapin, and he appeared there regularly from 1899 until 1914. During the First World War of 1914-1918 Chaliapin also appeared regularly at the Zimin Private Opera in Moscow. In addition, from 1901, Chaliapin began touring in the West, making a sensational debut at La Scala that year as the devil in a production of Boito's Mefistofele, under the baton of one of the 20th century's most dynamic opera conductors, Arturo Toscanini. At the end of his career, Toscanini observed that the Russian bass was the greatest operatic talent with whom he had ever worked. The singer's Metropolitan Opera debut in the 1907 season was disappointing due to the unprecedented frankness of his stage acting; but he returned to the Met in 1921 and sang there with immense success for eight seasons, New York's audiences having grown more broad-minded since 1907. In 1913 Chaliapin was introduced to London and Paris by the brilliant entrepreneur Sergei Diaghilev +••.••(...)), at which point he began giving well-received solo recitals in which he sang traditional Russian folk-songs as well as more serious fare... Chaliapin toured Australia in 1926, giving a series of recitals which were highly acclaimed...[He remained] perpetually outside Russia after 1921. He still maintained, however, that he was not anti-Soviet. Chaliapin initially moved to Finland and later lived in France. Cosmopolitan Paris, with its significant Russian émigré population, became his base, and ultimately, the city of his death. He was renowned for his larger-than-life carousing during this period, but he never sacrificed his dedication to his art. Chaliapin's attachment to Paris did not prevent him from pursuing an international operatic and concert career in England, the United States, and further afield. In May 1931 he appeared in the Russian Season directed by Sir Thomas Beecham at London's Lyceum Theatre. His most famous part was the title role of Boris Godunov (excerpts of which he recorded 1929–31 and earlier)... Largely owing to his advocacy, Russian operas...became well known in the West. Chaliapin made one sound film for the director G. W. Pabst, the 1933 Don Quixote. The film was made in three different versions – French, English, and German, as was sometimes the prevailing custom. Chaliapin starred in all three versions, each of which used the same script, sets, and costumes, but different supporting casts... In 1932, Chaliapin published a memoir, Man and Mask: Forty Years in the Life of a Singer... Chaliapin's last stage performance took place at the Monte Carlo Opera in 1937, as Boris. He died the following year of leukaemia, aged 65, in Paris, where he was interred. In 1984, his remains were transferred from Paris to Moscow in an elaborate ceremony. They were re-buried in the Novodevichy Cemetery... I transferred this side from an Australian laminated pressing of HMV DA 993.

Horowitz showed enough prodigious talent to play for Alexander Scriabin in 1915, just before the Russian composer-pianist’s early death. Horowitz would become a superlative interpreter of Scriabin’s music, which the pianist described as “mystical… expressionistic.” Horowitz also became friends with another great Russian composer-pianist (and Scriabin’s former schoolmate), Sergei Rachmaninoff – who was the acme of Romanticism. He also made a benchmark recording of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Sonata No. 2. Emigrating from Russia in 1925 and eventually settling in New York City, Horowitz made his American debut with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in 1928 at Carnegie Hall, which would become his home venue, the site of many recordings. Impressed by the pianist’s tonal dynamism, conductor Thomas Beecham, who led that concert, reportedly said: “Really, Mr. Horowitz, you can’t play like that – it shows the orchestra up.” Horowitz made a series of solo recordings for HMV at London’s Abbey Road Studios in 1932, including several Chopin pieces and an electrifying take on Liszt’s B Minor Sonata, helping to establish the piece in the standard repertoire. A review of a 1933 London concert declared Horowitz “the greatest pianist dead or alive.” Horowitz would make hit recordings with Toscanini of the Tchaikovsky concerto and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2 in 1940–41. Over the course of his career, Horowitz’s recorded repertoire stretched far beyond those early specialties of Chopin, Brahms, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Scriabin and Rachmaninoff; in long associations for RCA, then Columbia and, finally, Deutsche Grammophon, Horowitz also ranged from Scarlatti, Haydn and Clementi to Beethoven, Schumann and miniatures across the ages with artistic and commercial success; in a period of applying himself to modern music, he premiered Samuel Barber’s Sonata in 1950, along with recording sonatas by Prokofiev and Kabalevsky. Driven to “grow until I die,” he said, the pianist reapplied himself to select Beethoven sonatas in his middle period and then several Mozart works as he grew older. Horowitz also crafted his own transcriptions and arrangements, including such showstoppers as his variations on Carmen and Stars and Stripes Forever. In his book The Great Pianists, critic Harold Schonberg wrote: “As a technician, Horowitz was one of the most honest in the history of modern pianism. Famously high-strung, his art always a mental-physical high-wire act, Horowitz took four sabbaticals from public performance to deal with various issues, his returns much-ballyhooed events. The first layoff was for two years in 1936; the longest was 1953 to 1965, followed by a tremendous homecoming to Carnegie Hall. But even over his later breaks, he recorded regularly at home in his Manhattan townhouse, documenting his art as it subtly evolved even beyond great venues and the recording studio. A 1985 film, The Last Romantic, captured the pianist in his last years, performing at home as well as reminiscing about Scriabin and Rachmaninoff. The next year, Horowitz returned to Russia, 61 years after leaving — a hugely emotional event for both artist and audience, documented in the concert album and film Horowitz in Moscow. In 1987, he played his final recital, in Hamburg; he died two years later. “Piano playing consists of intellect, heart and technique,” Horowitz said. “All should be equally developed. Without intellect, you will be a fiasco; without technique, an amateur; without heart, a machine. The profession has its perils.”

At the Rotterdam Conservatory he studied the piano +••.••(...)) and composition (with Pijper, 1934--1937). Until 1940 he lived in Rotterdam, where most of his scores were destroyed during the bombing by the Germans in May of that year. During World War II Escher composed Musique pour l'esprit en deuil +••.••(...)), which was first performed in 1947 by the Concertgebouw Orchestra under van Beinum and which made him overnight the most important composer in the Netherlands. From 1945 until his death he lived in Amsterdam. After a short study at the Electronic Studio of the Delft Technical University he taught +••.••(...)) at the Amsterdam Conservatory. From 1964 to 1977 he taught theory of contemporary music at the University of Utrecht. The result of his teaching is to be found in many studies in the field of music theory and audiology. He was also a talented writer and painter, continuing to publish poetry in literary magazines until well into the 1950s. From 1945--1946 he wrote on music and art for the Groene Amsterdammer. Escher's music is lyrical, expressive and elegiac, with a great propulsive force, more French then German in its orientation (the main influences being Ravel, Debussy and Mahler). It is always basically tonal, and mostly cast in a strictly contrapuntal frame with chains of variations. Everything he wrote can be clearly discerned by the ear. In 1938 he wrote: 'The miracles of a piece of music will never be revealed, unless in a natural way, through sounding and hearing. That means sounding well and hearing well. The latter condition is a priori impossible if the former one cannot be fulfilled'. (Toscanini en Debussy). Apart from this technical aspect of composing, Escher discerned a psychic one: 'The technique of a composer is intimately related to his spiritual and intellectual self, his psyche'. This can be seen in his war compositions, such as Musique pour l'esprit en deuil, the Sonate concertante (1943) for cello and piano, Arcana (1944) for piano (originally called Arcana Musae Dona), and the first two movements of the Sonata for cello solo (1945; the third movement was completed in 1948). Each of these compositions is in a way an impressive 'document humain'. The works written immediately after 1945 do not reflect the war in the same way, but Escher's longing for peace is reflected in the 'Arcadian' choral works such as Songs of Love and Eternity (1955) and Ciel, air et vents (1957). As a theorist, Escher analysed many 20th-century scores from Debussy to Boulez, explaining the latter on the basis of Escher's own analysis of the former's music. As a composer, however, he preferred to remain true to the music of Debussy and Ravel without denying the technical implications of the music of the serialists, as in his Second Symphony (1958, revised in 1980), Wind Quintet (1967) and Monologue for flute solo (1969). In the early sixties Escher tried to extend his technique towards electronic music and serialism, but after several crises he was unable to find a technique which would allow him at the same time to remain true to his psyche. The results of this search are nevertheless interesting, and the brilliant Wind Quintet (1967) and Summer Rites at Noon for two orchestras (1971) are examples of Escher's technical and emotional powers. The sound of the Wind Quintet is dominated by the timbres of alto flute, oboe d'amore and bass clarinet. Only at the end is the alto flute replaced by a normal flute for a brilliant and exciting 'lark solo'. Here Escher combines Debussian intervallic manipulations with Boulezian structural formulae. Kernels of intervals grow into motifs and melodies through rhythmical development. The main structure consists of three movements (A1--B--A2), which are linked by two short bridges (Z1 and Z2). Each movement consists again of three segments (a--x--a), which results in six 'a' segments accelerating from Largo to Prestissimo, while at the same time the 'x' segments slow down from Moderato to Largo. The Prestissimo combines the flute's 'lark solo' with the other instruments playing Largo underneath. Escher received several prizes for his compositions, including the van der Leeuw Prize (1959) for Le tombeau de Ravel, the Visser-Neerlandia Prize (1961 and 1968) for Nostalgies and the Wind Quintet, the Willem Pijper prize (1966) for the Sonata concertante for cello and piano and the Johan Wagenaar prize for his total output.

#natale2021 #concertidinatale2021 #bandamusicaleEvanGorga #Broccostella #Frosinone #Lazio La Banda Musicale Comunale "Evan Gorga" di Broccostella, espressione della omonima Associazione, si è costituita nel 1996. Da allora il numero dei musicisti è via via cresciuto. Attualmente la formazione è composta da oltre 40 elementi. Evan Gorga, grande tenore, del quale la Banda porta il nome, nacque a Broccostella nel febbraio del 1865, fu scelto personalmente dal compositore Giacomo Puccini e dal direttore Arturo Toscanini per la "prima" della "Boheme", che venne rappresentata al Teatro Regio di Torino il 1° febbraio 1896. L'Associazione "Evan Gorga", della quale la Banda musicale è espressione ha come fine quello di promuovere iniziative intese ad incrementare, soprattutto nei più giovani, l'interesse per la musica e per la cultura in generale. Oltre a svolgere la normale attività di ogni complesso bandistico, quali l'accompagnamento di eventi e manifestazioni come raduni bandistici, gemellaggi e processioni religiose, la banda "Evan Gorga" svolge anche concerti sinfonici, con un repertorio che spazia in tutti i campi della musica: dalle marcie sinfoniche e militari ai pezzi d'opera, da brani di musica leggera a brani originali per banda. La banda musicale ha partecipato a importanti manifestazioni come "i giochi della gioventù" a Sora; il "raduno nazionale per bande musicali" città di Sgurgola Marsicana e S. Giovanni Incarico; il "raduno nazionale per bande musicali e gruppi folkloristici" di Roma organizzato dall'Assomusica in occasione della festa nazionale delle bande e dei gruppi folkloristici. Ricordiamo inoltre che la banda musicale "Evan Gorga" è gemellata con la banda musicale "Giulio Terilli" di Esperia. Parte fondamentale, sin dal momento della costituzione, hanno avuto il Maestro Romeo Venditti, nella sezione "ottoni", e il Maestro Carlo Carrafelli, nella sezione "strumenti ad ancia", i quali con lavoro paziente, attento e meticoloso, hanno contribuito al processo di crescita della formazione bandistica.
