August De Boeck - SCHERZO for piano solo Lode Backx - PIANO (Lode Backx, Flemish pianist born in 1922) recorded from rare VINYL LP Stereo (Luister van de muziek in Vlaanderen ) / Julianus Marie August de Boeck (Merchtem, Belgium, May 9, 1865 Merchtem, October 9, 1937) was a Flemish composer, organist and music pedagogue. From 1880 he studied organ at the Royal Conservatory in Brussels under Alphonse Mailly from whom he became an assistant until 1902. In 1889 he met the young Paul Gilson who became his close friend, and, despite their same age, his teacher for orchestration and his motivator for composition. He became an organist at various churches in Belgian villages +••.••(...) in Merchtem, 1894-1920 in Elsene). His academic career continued in 1907 as harmony professor at the conservatory of Antwerp +••.••(...)) and the conservatory of Brussels, and as director of the conservatory of Mechelen +••.••(...)). In 1930 August de Boeck retired to his birthplace. His style was, together with that of Paul Gilson, influenced by the Russian Five (especially Rimsky-Korsakov), and they introduced musical Impressionism into Belgium. / Julianus Marie August de Boeck (* 9. Mai 1865 in Merchtem; † 9. Oktober 1937 ebenda) war ein belgischer Komponist und Organist. Er studierte ab 1880 am Brüsseler Konservatorium bei Alphonse Mailly Orgel, von 1885 bis 1902 war de Boeck dessen Assistent. Sein Orgelstudium absolvierte er 1884 mit Auszeichnung. Seine weiteren Studienbereiche bei Hubert-Ferdinand Kufferath, Harmonielehre, Kontrapunkt und Fuge schloss er 1889 ebenfalls mit Auszeichnung ab. 1891 erwarb er noch das seltene Diplôme de capacité für sein virtuoses Orgelspiel am Konservatorium. Mit Paul Gilson verband ihn eine innige Freundschaft. Obwohl sie nahezu gleichen Alters waren, wird de Boeck häufig als ein Schüler Gilsons gesehen. Von 1892 bis 1921 war er als Organist bei verschiedenen Kirchen beschäftigt; 1892 bis 1894 an der Kirche Onze Lieve Vrouw ter Noodt in Merchtem, ab 1894 in der St. Bonifatius Kirche in Elsene und ab 1900 auch in der Karmeliter Klosterkirche in Elsene. Von 1909 bis 1920 wirkte als Professor für Harmonielehre am Königlich Flämischen Konservatorium in Antwerpen. Danach bis 1926 wirkte er noch am Konservatorium in Brüssel. 1921 wurde er zum Direktor des Konservatoriums in Mechelen berufen, diese Position hatte er bis zu seiner Pensionierung 1930 inne. Seine Kompositionen stehen stilistisch denen von Paul Gilson nahe, er mischte wie letzterer Einflüße Richard Wagners und der russischen Musik seiner Zeit, besonders die von Rimski-Korsakow, zu einem postromantisch geprägten Stil. Als sein Meisterwerk gilt seine 1921 in Gent aufgeführte Oper "La Route d'Émeraude".

Lodewjik Mortelmans +••.••(...)) - Het wielewaalt en leeuweerkt Lode Backx - PIANO (Lode Backx, Flemish pianist born in 1922) recorded from rare VINYL LP Stereo (Luister van de muziek in Vlaanderen ) Lodewijk Mortelmans (born 5 February 1868, Antwerp; died 24 June 1952, Antwerp) was a Belgium composer and conductor of Flemish ancestry. He was from a family of five children born to Isabella and Charles Mortelmans. Mortelmans' father was a printer, and his elder brother, Frans Mortelmans, was a painter. Mortelmans studied music at the Royal Flemish Conservatory in Antwerp, where his teachers included Peter Benoit, Joseph Tilborghs, and Jan Blockx, as well as Arthur De Greef (piano) and Hubert Ferdinand Kufferath (counterpoint). In 1893, he was a winner of the Belgian Prix de Rome with his cantata Lady Macbeth. Both Mortelmans and his brother were members of the arts group De Scalden. Mortelmans was also affiliated with the arts groups Studie and De Kapel, and the arts journal Van Nu en Straks. From 1901, Mortelmans taught counterpoint and fugue at the Royal Flemish Conservatory, and became its director on 6 September 1924. He retired from the post in 1933. His students included Lodewijk De Vocht, Marinus De Jong and Flor Peeters. In 1903, with financial support from the patron François Franck, Mortelmans founded the Maatschappij der Nieuwe Concerten ("Society of New Concerts") in Antwerp, which attracted notable guest conductors and artists such as Gustav Mahler, Siegfried Wagner, Hans Richter, Richard Strauss, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Pablo de Sarasate, Jacques Thibaud, Pablo Casals, and Fritz Kreisler. Mortelmans was also a founder of the organisation NAVEA, which is now SABAM (Société d'Auteurs Belge - Belgische Auteurs Maatschappij). He also helped to found the Eugène Ysaÿe Violin Competition, which later became the Queen Elisabeth Music Competition. Sometimes called de Vlaamse Brahms ("the Flemish Brahms")[1], Mortelmans composed in a number of forms, including piano music and orchestral works, but he was most celebrated in his day for his art songs. Beginning in 1899, he often set the poetry of the priest Guido Gezelle. His opera De Kinderen van Zee (The Children of the Sea) was first produced in 1920 at the Vlaamse Opera.[2] Mortelmans was married twice. He and his first wife had seven children. His first wife and two of his sons died in 1917. Mortelmans composed In Memoriam in her honour. His second wife was the pianist and teacher Gabriëlle Radoux.

Overture to the opera Aurora, Op. 23 Südwestfunk Orchester Emmerich Smola, conductor Bungert was born in Mülheim. His unusual musical talent was noticed and nurtured at high school by his teacher, Heinrich Kufferath, the brother of the composer Ferdinand Kufferath. Bungert's father, a wealthy merchant and an eminent member of the community, was unenthusiastic about his son's ambitions and considered his son's musical ability to be an "ill-fated inclination". He would have preferred his son to undertake a career as a merchant or a doctor. Only his mother supported him, but she died when August Bungert was ten. In the aftermath of her death, the conflict between father and son became more intense. Upon finishing high school at 16, Bungert fled to Cologne. He attended the Conservatorium there and was taught by Ferdinand Kufferath, his high school teacher's brother. In Cologne, he was discovered by the composer Max Bruch's sister, who had been charged by the Paris Conservatorium with finding a talented musician to be educated in Paris. "Without hesitation, I agreed. Before 1866, Paris was a cultural centre, which every aspiring musician must visit in order to gain recognition" — August Bungert, Der Bund - monthly publication for the Bungert-Bund 9 July 1915 Bungert was destitute in Paris, just managing to make ends meet by giving piano lessons, until his father grudgingly gave him a little emergency support. Although the Paris Conservatorium was home to some celebrated musicians, such as Berlioz, Auber and Rossini, who occasionally noticed talented students, Bungert did not receive the encouragement he expected. Due in part to this disappointment, and in part to an unhappy love affair, he returned to Germany. In 1869 he took a position as a chorus-master, and in 1870 as the director of an orchestra in Bad Kreuznach. Although he composed more in Kreuznach - the production of his piece Hutten und Sickingen during the unveiling of a monument was a big success - he was obviously not satisfied. In 1874 he moved to Berlin, where he continued his studies under Friedrich Kiel. Here he produced more significant works, among others the Piano Quartet in E flat major, opus 18, which was awarded the Florentine Quartet Prize of 1877 by Johannes Brahms and Robert Volkmann who were the judges of the competition. According to Bungert, he composed the piece as he lay in bed feverish with appendicitis. The piano quartet was performed very successfully in Constantinople (now Istanbul) in 1913. Bungert travelled to Italy with the prize money, ostensibly for health reasons, but probably from a deep yearning for Italian life, moving to Pegli, near Genoa. Here he met Giuseppe Verdi, and his neighbour was the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, with whom he would form a strong friendship. In Pegli he wrote the opera Aurora, which premiered in Leipzig in 1884. In Italy, Bungert made the acquaintance of the Queen of Romania, Elisabeth of Wied, known artistically as Carmen Sylva, who would become of great importance in his later life and for his music. Through Sylva he finally gained the yearned-for access to the highest nobility. Bungert was a regular guest in the royal Wied castles and in the Swedish and Rumanian royal courts. August-Bungert-Haus in Leutesdorf In 1890, Sylva gave him an expensive Bechstein grand piano, and in 1894 she transferred the ownership of a house to him. The house was situated on the Rhine in Leutesdorf, had a large garden and was renovated by the Cologne architect Carl Schauppmeyer in the Ionic style. The villa is still considered an adornment in the plane-tree-lined Rheinallee (today August-Bungert-Allee). Bungert furnished the house with expensive furniture, works of art and memorabilia. He celebrated his greatest artistic triumphs during this time, especially with the setting of Sylva's poetry to music and his Rhine-songs, which he often composed sitting at his regular table in the Rhine garden of the Leyscher Hof Hotel in Leutesdorf, for which he mostly wrote the texts himself. Bungert was awarded a professorship at the Leipzig University in 1911 and gave several lectures about his work there. He died, following a long illness, on 26 October 1915 in his house in Leutesdorf.
