Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Concerto No. 4 in B-flat major, Op. 53 (for the left hand) (with Score) Composed: 1931 Piano: Vadym Kholodenko Conductor: Miguel Harth-Bedoya Orchestra: Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra 00:00 1. Vivace (B-flat major) 04:41 2. Andante (A-flat major) 14:00 3. Moderato (C major) 22:05 4. Vivace (B-flat major) Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 4 in B-flat major for the left hand, Op. 53, was commissioned by the one-armed pianist Paul Wittgenstein and completed in 1931. Wittgenstein did not understand the work, but it is not the case (as has sometimes been claimed) that he refused to play it. He was simply not prepared to play it until such time as he had appreciated its inner logic. That time never came, but Wittgenstein and Prokofiev always remained on friendly terms. It was the only one of Prokofiev's complete piano concertos that never saw a performance during his lifetime. It was premiered in Berlin on 5 September 1956 by Siegfried Rapp and the West Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Martin Rich. The United States premiere was in 1958, by Rudolf Serkin and the Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy. The British premiere was in 1961, by Malcolm Binns. Prokofiev expressed some interest in making an arrangement for piano two-hands and orchestra, but never went through with this idea.

Hello :). Today, it was six years ago the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities came into force in the Netherlands. Also, it happened to be my birthday :D. I thought I would share this music video of "Ah! Vita Bella", covered by the Nederlands Blazers Ensemble (NBE, Netherlands Wind Ensemble) and me when we staged a musical action at the train station for equal rights and freedoms for people with disabilities back in April, as the UN Convention unfortunately has resulted in little change for the better. With this, we also heralded the start of my crowdfunding campaign 'The freedom of movement - Help me move!', to obtain financing for the assistive technologies I need for my new apartment due to my physical disabilities and power wheelchair. By now, we have reached two-thirds of the goal amount. If you can, consider to contribute through GoFundMe (http•••) Thank you! After a year of municipal procedures, I have still not been granted the necessary adaptations for my new home. I decided to take legal action and have a court hearing scheduled next week. With my crowdfunding revenues, it would be possible for me to move this summer. I also hope to be able to purchase my own electric wheelchair, so I can push my mobile street piano myself again, like I used to. I am currently not allowed to do that with the power wheelchair the municipality lends to me, which means that I cannot work independently. Read the full story on my crowdfunding page on GoFundMe. This action was not just about my own situation, but for all people who need extra health care. Last year, I already wrote an essay about this, "Living with disabilities in our society". This mini-concert was a playful follow-up. I am just one of the many people who are held back by the current policies. Many stories are never told, because people don't have the words or the energy (anymore) to tell how limited their lives are due to these policies. I want to make that sound heard, and now I was able to do that with music, thanks to the fantastic musicians of the NBE. The pieces performed were a celebration of life and zest for life, in the midst of all the obstacles, circumstances and bizarre events. Because that's what this campaign is for: so that people with disabilities, have the freedom to make something of their life and to truly enjoy life as well. In this video you can hear "Ah! Vita Bella", originally by Lucilla Galeazzi, covered by us. There is a video of both pieces on YouTube (with Al Revés - upside down -, a piece composed by Rhea Elise, featuring as the 9th track on her album: (http•••)) and a short intro by Jan Troost, an activist in this field for 50 years: (http•••) Video description: seven members of the Netherlands Wind Ensemble, my mobile street piano and I are standing in the train station of Nijmegen and making music together, set against the background of the beautiful historic red brick wall with arches. We are all wearing winter clothes, I'm also wearing gloves and a Hoodlamb hat. I am seated in an electric wheelchair with green features and wearing a blue shawl and scarf with a butterfly on it. There are spectators in a large semi-circle around us. During the second part, the other musicians gather and dance around me and my mobile piano. At the very end, there’s some footage of the first attempt, with the title “Prelude - If at first you don’t succeed”, where the steering control unit of my wheelchair falls down and almost hits the piano keys. Two people, photographer Paul Rapp and the artistic leader of the NBE, Bart Schneemann, come to set it up properly again. ~ Artists ~ Het Nederlands Blazers Ensemble (NBE, the Netherlands Wind Ensemble) Flute/piccolo - Jeannette Landré Oboe - Bart Schneemann Bass Clarinet - Jesse Faber Clarinet - Jaime Peña Martínez Saxophone - Johan van der Linden Bassoon - Marieke Stordiau Trombone - Alexander Verbeek and Piano - Rhea Elise ~ Ah!

Den prisbelönta rockmusikalen Hair är vild och egensinnig. Det tidlösa budskapet talar om kärlek, trots det krig som kommer allt närmare. Fantastiska låtar och ett kollage av historier blir en föreställning som är både rockkonsert och teater. I Rikard Bergqvists svenska version ser vi unga talanger och etablerade musikalartister tillsammans med ett rockband på scen. Hela ensemblen sjunger och dansar sig igenom drygt femtio musikaliska nummer, rapp dialog och spännande visuella effekter. Här ryms kärlek och värme, utanförskap och fördomar, krig och droger, samhällskritik och längtan efter en bättre värld. Mer info: opera.se/forestallningar/hair-2016-2017/
