Kathy Clarke - Alto Saxophone Bella Scotti - Marimba Follow us on Facebook and Instagram: (http•••) (http•••) (http•••) Akira Yuyama (1932 – 2019) Divertiemto (1968) Divertimento for Marimba and Alto Saxophone was Composed at the request of the Marimba player Keiko Abe for a recital in 1968. ‘By both pioneering new technical skills and expanding the literature, Keiko Abe has transformed what was once considered a primitive “Folk” instrument into a full-fledged concert instrument welcome in any of the most prestigious concert halls.’ This piece was an early example of marimba music in Japan. Japan has now come to be one of the leading centres of composition for the Marimba. When Yuyama was tasked to composes a piece for the marimba he immediately decided to combine it with saxophone. The saxophone similarly to the Marimba has had some prejudice in the concert hall, even today. So, it only seems fitting Yuyama wished to combine the two ‘outsider’ instruments in this setting. The piece gives equal attention to both instruments, calling for six mallets at one point on the marimba and the use of the full range of the alto saxophone. Although the marimba and saxophone are from completely different instrumental families either can become a lead or accompaniment. Yuyama explores both the smooth improvisatory lines the saxophone can create and the more percussive aspect of its articulation. Frequently a repeated rhythm between the marimba and saxophone can be heard in the 7/8 moments. This part really showcases the timbre similarities between the instruments. Written in a Western style, Divertimento is a set of variations in a rondo form. The opening theme returns alternated between other themes, called episodes. Set up: Yanagisawa 901 Alto Saxophone. Selmer S90 180 Mouthpiece. Vandoren Optimum Ligature (Vertical Pressure Plate). Vandoren Anches Traditional Reed, 3.5.

From Wikipedia: Frieda Hempel (26 June 1885 – 7 October 1955) was a German soprano singer in operatic and concert work who had an international career in Europe and the United States. Hempel was born in Leipzig and studied first at the Leipzig Conservatory and afterwards at the Stern Conservatory, Berlin, where she was a pupil of Selma Nicklass-Kempner. Her earliest appearances were in Breslau, singing Violetta, the Queen of the Night and Rosina. She made a debut in Schwerin in 1905, and was engaged there for the next two years, singing also Gilda, Leonora (Il Trovatore) and Woglinde. She made such a success that the Kaiser Wilhelm II requested the Schwerin authorities to release her to sing also in Berlin. She made a debut there in 1905 as Frau Fluth (in Nicolai's Die Lustigen Weiber von Windsor). She sang at the Royal Court Opera, Berlin, from 1907 to 1912, where she was also admired as Lucia, Marguerite de Valois and Marie. She appeared at the Covent Garden, London in 1907 as Bastienne, as Humperdinck's Hänsel und Gretel, as Eva and Elsa and again as Frau Fluth: Melba and Selma Kurz were taking centre stage in the more popular roles. In 1912 she made her debut at the Metropolitan Opera, in New York City as Marguerite de Valois in Les Huguenots. She sang regularly in New York thereafter into the 1920s. She was the first to sing the Marschallin in Der Rosenkavalier in New York (for Gatti-Casazza, December 9, 1913) and in Berlin, and she also sang the role in London in 1913. She was in the Met 1913 Un Ballo in Maschera as Oscar, with Caruso, Emmy Destinn, Margarete Matzenauer and Pasquale Amato; also the 1916 Marriage of Figaro with Matzenauer, Geraldine Farrar and Antonio Scotti. Her La Fille du Régiment was presented there in 1917. Hempel had a very wide dramatic range, from Rosina or Queen of the Night to Wagner's Eva and Weber's Euryanthe (Metropolitan, 1914 revival). After 1919 she devoted herself to concert recitals, and left the Metropolitan Opera House somewhat abruptly, making way for the career of Amelita Galli-Curci. However she then made a second career on the concert platform, excelling in the performance of lieder of Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms and Wolf, in Mozart concert arias, and the like. She became famous for recitals in which she appeared in costume as the famous nineteenth-century soprano Jenny Lind. She died in Berlin in 1955 at the age of 70.

Hempel sings Mimi's aria from 'La Boheme,' recorded in Berlin on 18 September 1913. This side is a little more 'well-loved' than those I have previously uploaded, but still quite acceptable.
