1925. Pianiste en componiste Amy Beach schrijft het prachtige kleine pianowerkje By The Still Waters. Minder groots dan haar Eerste Symfonie waar ze bekend mee werd, maar Clara en Sander worden er helemaal stil van. Het leven van Beach was daarentegen minder rustig, van haar relatie met een rijke topdokter uit Boston, tot een lege erfenis… spannend genoeg om heel wat roddelboekskes mee te vullen. En doet Beach haar muziek jou ook zo denken aan die van Satie? Hoe zou dat komen?

Seit Herbst 2023 ist der gebürtige Franzose Joseph Bastian Chefdirigent der Münchner Symphoniker - und gleich zu Amtsantritt hat er sich für Komponistinnen starkgemacht. Ein erstes gemeinsames Album, erschienen beim Eigenlabel der Münchner Symphoniker, ist der amerikanischen Spätromantikerin Amy Beach gewidmet - eine echte Entdeckung, meint Fridemann Leipold.

Juliana Soltis is an innovative cellist who has done extensive research to connect listeners with some forgotten stories of classical music. In this episode we talked about her recent album American Woman which features cello and piano music of women composers; you'll hear Juliana's insights into the lives of Mary Howe, Amy Beach, Margaret Bonds, Helen Crane, Dorothy Rudd Moore and Florence Price and hear excerpts from this album which Juliana recorded with the wonderful pianist Ruoting Li. Many listeners will be familiar with Juliana's playing as a Baroque cellist, and it was fascinating to hear about how the French relinquished their beloved viol relunctuantly to the Italian cello. I really love Juliana's recording of the complete Suites for solo cello of J.S. Bach and you'll hear some music from her album Going off Script: the Ornamented Suites for cello. Juliana shared great advice about performing from an athlete's perspective and also the joy of connecting with audiences. This interview begins with one of her beautiful greyhounds, and for those of you watching this on YouTube, hopefully you'll enjoy this comforting canine presence throughout this inspirational conversation.

Die Münchner Symphoniker und ihr Chefdirigent & Künstlerischer Leiter Joseph Bastian legen gemeinsam mit Camille Schnoor, Sopran, und Angela Brower, Mezzosopran, eine neue Einspielung mit symphonischen Werken der amerikanischen Komponistin Amy Beach vor.

“Notas de Mujer” una celebración del talento y la creatividad de destacadas mujeres compositoras a lo largo de la historia. De lunes a viernes a las 9:00 hrs. en www.radioudec.cl y el 95.1 FM. Producción: Carolina Valdés - Locución: Sergio Morales.

Amy Beach is a name that might not be familiar to you. She was born in 1867 and died in 1944, and her life was one of the most fascinating and varied in musical history. She was a child prodigy, became a successful pianist, and then pivoted to composing at her husband's request. She was one of the first successful composers without any training from Europeans, and when her Gaelic Symphony was performed for the first time in 1896, it became the first symphony by an American woman to be published or performed. This symphony, and Beach's whole career, is inextricably linked with the history and mores of the time, from the influence of Dvorak on American music, to Beach's stop and start relationship to performing. The Gaelic symphony is a remarkable amalgamation of American symphonic brilliance, some European influence(especially from Dvorak), and the music of Beach's own heritage. It's a symphony that was very popular in its time and then was forgotten, but now is finding itself on the stage more and more often. This week on the show we'll go through this beautiful symphony, a pillar of early American classical music, and a piece that certainly deserves to be better known than it is. Join us!

Interpreten: Lisa MariaSchachtschneiderLabel: Ars ProduktionEAN: 4260052383773Es gab eine Zeit, da war der Begriff „Konzeptalbum“ein wenig in Verruf geraten. Mittlerweile jedoch erlebt die thematisch passendeZusammenstellung verschiedenster Komponisten, Zeiten und Stile wieder eineHochblüte. Besonders gelungen, in mehrfacher Hinsicht, ist dies beim jüngstenAlbum der Pianistin Lisa Maria Schachtschneider.Die aus Deutschland stammende, seitJahren jedoch in der Schweiz beheimatete, Pianistin Lisa Maria Schachtschneidersieht es als großes Privileg, „von atemberaubend schönen Berglandschaftenumgeben zu sein und eine der höchsten Luftqualitäten weltweit täglich einatmenzu dürfen“. So schreibt sie es am Beginn des Beihefttextes zu ihrer neuen CDPlanet Earth – as within so without. Mit dem Musikprogramm darauf, den vierElementen zugeordnet, möchte sie einen künstlerischen Anstoß zu einem „wertschätzenden,achtsamen und bewussten Wahrnehmen und Erhalten unserer Natur und Umwelt geben“.Eine Referenz an ihre SchweizerWahlheimat findet sich mit dem Schweizer Jahr aus den Années de Pèlerinage vonFranz Liszt sowohl beim Wasser als auch in der Luft. Bekanntes stammt weitersaus dem Repertoire von Claude Debussy, u.a. Feux d'artifice, Maurice Ravel,Jeux d'eau oder Igor Strawinsky, danse infernale aus dem Feuervogel. Zu denprominenten Herren der Tonsetzerzunft gesellen sich nicht minder großartigeWerke von Komponistinnen der letzten 200 Jahre. So gibt es Höhepunkte wie dasu.a. wunderbar impressionistische From Grandmother's Garden von Amy Beach oderdie, für ihre Entstehungszeit um 1947/48 sehr spätromantische, Klaviersonatevon Martha von Castelberg zu entdecken. Oder die ausgesprochen originellen Preziosenaus den Träumereien von Sophie Gräfin Wolf Baudissin. Es ist jedoch nicht nurdie Auswahl der einzelnen Stücke, und natürlich das ganz hervorragende Spielder Pianistin selbst, sondern auch die Anordnung und Dramaturgie derZusammenstellung, die diese CD zu etwas ganz Besonderem macht.

SynopsisOn today's date in 1908, the Hoffman String Quartet gave a recital at Boston's Potter Hall, opening their program with a Romantic classic, Robert Schumann's String Quartet from 1842, followed by much more modern fare — Debussy's String Quartet written in 1893.And to close their program, the Hoffman Quartet premiered a brand-new contemporary work: a piano quintet by American composer Amy Beach, with the composer at the piano.The Boston Globe's critic noted “the audience was of goodly proportions and very demonstrative in its appreciation of Mrs. Beach's composition,” but (critics being critics), did a little nit-picking, concluding, “The work is thoroughly good, though a little too choppy at times.” The critic from The Boston Evening Transcript had fewer nits to pick, writing: “The quintet begins in the luminous key of F-sharp minor, and throughout Mrs. Beach modulates freely … [she] has sought a modern sonority of utterance … Her rhythms spurred the ear, and her harmonies [have] tang and fancy … In imagination, feeling, and expression, it is distinctly rhapsodic. Mrs. Beach can think musically in truly songful melodies, and such are the themes of her new quintet.”Music Played in Today's ProgramAmy Beach (1867-1944): Piano Quintet; Garrick Ohlsson, piano; Takács Quartet; Hyperion CDA-68295

In den nächsten Tagen ist die amerikanische Pianistin Claire Huangci in Bayern und in Vorarlberg unterwegs, unter anderem mit Musik von Amy Beach. Musik aus Amerika hat Huangci auch zum Thema ihrer neuesten CD gemacht, die im vergangenen Herbst erschienen ist: "Made in USA".

Samantha Ege is both a leading scholar and interpreter of Florence Price. In this interview, she talks about her recent book “South Side Impresarios: How Race Women Transformed Chicago's Classical Music Scene”. I was fascinated to learn about this compelling history of Chicago's Black Renaissance with women such as Nora Holt,  Margaret Bonds, and Katherine Dunham.  Dr. Ege shared how the scholarship side of her work informs both her identity as a pianist and also how this research and storytelling cause her to reflect on some of her own challenges. We also talked about some of her other recent recording projects, including the upcoming Avril Coleridge-Taylor piano concerto and chamber music with Castle of our Skins, and she reflected candidly on her personal creative life as a writer, performer and composer.

Dorothy Byrne has worked in journalism for more than 40 years, including almost 20 years as Head of News and Current Affairs at Channel 4 from 2003 to 2020. She talks to Michael Berkeley about the sexism and harassment she experienced as a young producer, which she detailed in her MacTaggart Lecture at the Edinburgh Television Festival in 2019, in which she added that she would still recommend journalism to young women today - ‘in what other line of work, when... you hear of some absolute disgrace, can you say to yourself “I'm going to make a programme exposing that and I'll put a stop to it!” And sometimes you even do.' She has also argued that challenging journalism which calls politicians to account is a vital part of any healthy democracy. Since 2021 she has been President of Murray Edwards College, a women-only college at the University of Cambridge. Her music choices include pieces by Mozart, Handel, Amy Beach and Nina Simone, as well as a recording of her college choir performing music by Hildegard of Bingen.Producer: Graham Rogers

In this very special episode, I perform for you music by Jean Louis Nicodé, Dora Pejacevic, Edward MacDowell and Amy Beach. I also feature an exclusive addition of a brand new piece by a current  contemporary London based composer, Nickie Hart, as well as a very special piece from Ukrainian composer Mykola Lysenko. To finish I also perform Movement 2 from Piano Concerto in A minor Op.16 by Edvard Grieg.

SynopsisA remarkable shift of focus in music history occurred in the latter part of the 20th century when performers and musicologists began turning their attention to neglected works by women composers of the past and present. Composers such as Hildegard von Bingen, Clara Schumann, Amy Beach, Rebecca Clarke and Florence Price began to receive the attention they deserved.Much work remains to be done on this front, however.Take the case of Monserrate Ferrer Otero, also known as Monsita Ferrer, born in San Juan on this date in 1885. She began playing the piano at an early age and later pursued composition studies in New York. She was one of Puerto Rico's first professional woman composers and in 1956 served as an adviser in the planning of its Conservatory of Music. Although enjoying success during her lifetime, only a few of her works are still performed today. This slow waltz, Bajo el Oro del Crepúsculo (or Under the Gold of Twilight) was dedicated to fellow travelers aboard the luxury liner Victoria Luisa.A string quartet and most of her other vocal and piano works remain unpublished long after Ferrer‘s death in 1966.Music Played in Today's ProgramMonserrate Ferrer Otero (1885-1966) Bajo el Oro del Crepúsculo (Vals lento); Kimberly Davis, p. from album ‘La Ondina: Una Colección de Música Puertorriqueña para Piano'

Amy Beach konnte im Alter von einem Jahr Melodien sauber singen, mit zwei Jahren Kontrapunkte dazu improvisieren, mit drei Jahren brachte sie sich selbst lesen bei. Überflüssig zu erwähnen, dass sie ein Klavierwunderkind war.

I was talking with one of my high school students a few weeks ago about music by women composers. We were studying "Canoeing" by Amy Beach in the Celebration Series Level 7 Piano Repertoire book, the third piece in her Op. 119 collection, From Six to Twelve for Piano written in 1927. "Amy Beach was the first American woman to achieve widespread recognition as a composer of large-scale works," I read from my iPad.My student, in addition to piano and double bass, her primary instrument, is also a composer. Her most recent work was a four-and-a-half-minute piece for string ensemble that she wrote over a weekend!She's also picked up numerous other instruments through the years—harpsichord, marimba, viola, bass drum, guitar, and even a Viola da Gamba.We listened to a recording of the piece and played through the score. We discussed how the rippling eighth notes between the hands create a sense of paddling, left then right. We talked about Amy Beach's life, marriage, and musical career."This piece reminds me of works by a few other women composers," I said after a few minutes. I pulled up a copy of Cecile Chaminade's Album des enfants, Op. 123 written in 1906 and played the first page. "Another female composer writing around this same time was Charlotte Sohy," I said. "She has a set of piano pieces that might be fun for you to play," I said, pulling up the score for 6 petites pièces on my iPad. Her eyes lit up. "Yes, I'd like that," she said, nodding.This is how the idea began for studying and learning music by women composers during the month of March, International Women's Month. In this episode, I'll talk about the composers and scores we'll study over the next four weeks and share a resource list of elementary and intermediate piano music written by women composers that you can reference in your teaching.For show notes, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.Celebration Series Level 7 Piano Repertoire bookFrom Six to Twelve for Piano, Op. 119 (Amy C.

The Cabildo is an actual building in New Orleans that was once a prison. Frank says he did an opera-based scene in Tuesday's Einstein Simplified improv show.  Kathryn gave her niece a backstage tour during Amahl and the Night Visitors at Opéra Louisiane. Frank likes the backstage area at the Knoxville Civic Auditorium. Frank bought a discounted ticket to the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra's Clayton Holiday Concert.  During the show, Frank got a text and a call from his home-alarm monitoring company. The motion detector had triggered the alarm. Frank's next door neighbor was also notified because he is listed as Frank's emergency contact. Frank contacted four more of his neighbors to ask them to look around while the police were on the way. Frank thinks the heating system might have caused the curtains to billow under the motion detector. Kathryn wonders if it could have been triggered by a mouse.  This episode is sponsored by BoneZones.com (don't forget the S).

Concert Pianist Joanne Polk (who is on the piano faculty at Manhattan School of Music) is playing a recital at Carthage College on Tuesday evening, October 11th, 7:30 p.m. in Siebert Chapel. The program will consist entirely of music by great women composers such as Amy Beach, Cecile Chamiade and Louise Ferrenc. This interview is interspersed with examples of Ms. Polk's piano playing.

Synopsis Amy Marcy Cheney Beach was born in Henniker, New Hampshire, on today's date in 1867. Amy Beach – or, Mrs. H.H.A. Beach, as she was also called – was one of America's first major women composers and a gifted concert pianist to boot We probably have Mr. Beach to thank for Amy's decision to devote herself more to composition than performance. In the spring of 1885, at the age of 18, Amy debuted as a soloist with the Boston Symphony, and it seemed a major concert career was in the offing. But later that same year, she married Dr. Henry Harris Aubrey Beach, a prominent New England physician. In respect to his wishes and the custom of the day for women in high society, Mrs. H.H.A. Beach curtailed her concert career and concentrated instead on writing music. Her first published work was a setting of a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, a long-time family friend. Only after her husband's death in 1911, did Amy revive her career as a concert pianist with a concert tour throughout Germany, returning to America at the outbreak of World War I. In her later years, she acted as mentor to a whole new generation of American women pursuing careers in music. She died in New York in 1944. Music Played in Today's Program Amy Beach (1867-1944) –Piano Concerto in c#, Op. 45 (Joanne Polk, piano; English Chamber Orchestra; Paul Goodwin, cond.) Arabesque 6738
