Er gründete das erste Schweizer Paraplegikerzentrum, wurde als Mediziner eine internationale Koryphäe und sass selbst im Rollstuhl: Alain Rossier war in vielerlei Hinsicht ein Pionier. Vor 57 Jahren erzählte er in «Musik für einen Gast» aus seinem Leben. Wie wirkt dieses Gespräch aus heutiger Sicht? Am letzten Tag seines Medizinstudiums erlitt Alain Rossier im Schwimmbad einen Unfall, der seinen privaten und beruflichen Weg massgeblich prägen sollte: Er war fortan querschnittgelähmt, schloss noch im Krankhaus sein Staatsexamen ab, spezialisierte sich auf die Paraplegiologie und wurde über die Jahre zu einer Koryphäe auf seinem Gebiet. 1968 besuchte Roswitha Schmalenbach, die langjährige Moderatorin von «Musik für einen Gast», Rossier an seinem Arbeitsort, im Hôpital Beau-Séjour in Genf, wo er das erste Paraplegikerzentrum der Schweiz aufgebaut hatte. Der damals 38-Jährige erzählte von seiner eigenen Geschichte, den Erfolgen und Entwicklungen in seinem Fach, aber auch den Hindernissen, die ihm im Alltag begegneten. Wie klingt dieses Zeitdokument in den Ohren einer Person, die heute auf einen Rollstuhl angewiesen ist und sich für die Rechte von Menschen mit Querschnittlähmung einsetzt? Das erfahren wir zum Schluss der Sendung von Olga Manfredi, Juristin und Präsidentin der Schweizer Paraplegiker-Vereinigung. Die Musiktitel: 1.

durée : 00:25:03 - Antonin Dvorák, Concerto pour violoncelle et orchestre - par : Anne-Charlotte Rémond - Le 9 février 1895, jour de l'anniversaire de son plus jeune fils, Dvořák, met un point final à son Concerto pour violoncelle. A peine 3 mois depuis les premières esquisses. Si quelques temps auparavant, on lui avait dit qu'il écrirait un concerto pour violoncelle, il aurait été le premier étonné... - réalisé par : Philippe Petit

Klaviertrios sind meist feste Gebilde: Ensembles wie das Trio Wanderer oder früher das Beaux Arts Trio zeigen schon im Namen an, dass sie zusammengehören. Jetzt ist eine Aufnahme der vier Klaviertrios von Antonin Dvorák erschienen, bei der die Formation die Namen der Solisten trägt: Veronika Jarůšková an der Geige, der Cellist Peter Jarůšek und Boris Giltburg am Klavier. Ob die Drei dennoch eine Einheit bilden, verrät nun Christoph Vratz.

SynopsisAt 6:05 p.m. on today's date in 2007, the Interstate 35W Bridge in Minneapolis collapsed, plunging dozens of cars and trucks into the Mississippi River. Thirteen people died. Investigators said a design flaw was to blame, and the event served as a wake-up call about America's crumbling infrastructure.It also inspired a new piece of music.In 2007 Minnesota composer Linda Tutas Haugen had been commissioned to write a piece for solo instrument and organ for performance at the next American Guild of Organists' national convention. Haugen had been looking at various hymn tunes for inspiration when the I-35 bridge collapsed.As she recalled, “I had family members who'd been over the bridge a day before. Many were feeling, ‘It could have been me.' I reread texts of the hymns I had been considering, and there was one that talks about ‘God of hill and plain, o'er which our traffic runs' and ‘wherever God your people go, protect them by your guarding hand.' That inspired my writing.”Haugen scored her new piece for trumpet and organ and titled it “Invocation and Remembrance.” “For me,” said Haugen, “it's a prayer, an invocation for protection, and also a remembrance of what happened.”Music Played in Today's ProgramLinda Tutas Haugen Invocation and Remembrance Martin Hodel, trumpet; Kraig Windschitl, organ Augsburg Fortress Music CD (with ISBN: 9780800679118)On This DayBirths1779 - Baltimore lawyer Francis Scott Key, who in 1814 wrote the words of "The Star-Spangled Banner," setting his text to the tune of a popular British drinking song of the day, "To Anacreon in Heaven," written by John Stafford Smith; The text and the tune became the official national anthem by and Act of Congress in 1931;1858 - Austrian composer Hans Rott, in Vienna;1913 - American composer Jerome Moross, in Brooklyn;1930 - British pop song and musical composer Lionel Bart, of "Oliver!" fame, in London;Deaths1973 - Gian-Francesco Maliperio, Italian composer and first editor of collected works of Monteverdi and Vivaldi, age 91, in Treviso;Premieres1740 - Thomas Arne: masque, “Alfred” (containing “Rule, Brittania”), in Clivedon (Gregorian date: August 12);1921 - Hindemith: String Quartet No. 3, Op. 16, by the Amar Quartet (which included the composer on viola) in Donaueschingen, Germany;1968 - Webern: "Rondo" for string quartet, written in 1906, at the Congregation of the Arts at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire;1993 - Ellen Taaffe Zwilich: Concerto for Horn and String Orchestra, at the Bravo!

Synopsis Most classical music lovers know and love Dvorak's “New World” Symphony, Opus 95, and his “American” String Quartet, Opus 96, but fewer know the work he wrote next: his String QUINTET, Opus 97. We think that's a shame, since all three rank among the finest things the Czech composer ever wrote. Dvorak's Quintet is also nicknamed the “American” – and for good reason: It was completed in 1893 on today's date in Spillville, Iowa, during the composer's summer vacation in that small, rural community of Czech immigrants, where he and family could escape the noise and bustle of New York City and his duties there at the National Conservatory. Dvorak had been brought to America to teach Americans how to write American music, but, like any good teacher, Dvorak was as eager to LEARN as to teach. In New York, Henry T. Burleigh, a talented African-American Conservatory student taught Dvorak spirituals, and in Spillville, Dvorak eagerly attended performances of Native American music and dance by a group of touring Iroquois Indians. Traces of those influences can be heard in Dvorak's “American” works. In his Quintet, for example, unison melodic lines and striking rhythms seem to echo the Iroquois chants and drums Dvorak heard during his summer vacation in Spillville.

Already during their lifetimes, Antonin Dvorák and Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky were among the most famous composers in the world. Their music is extremely sophisticated, the product of highly skilled composers, and their beautiful melodies have always been especially beloved.

Synopsis On today's date in 1935, at the Church of Saint François-Xavier in Paris, organist Geneviève de la Salle gave the first complete performance of the three-movement Suite, Op. 5, by the French composer, teacher, and virtuoso organist Maurice Duruflé. If you sing in a choir or are a fan of choral music, you're probably familiar with Duruflé's serene and tranquil “Requiem,” Op. 9, which premiered some 12 years later. Duruflé's Op. 5 premiered in 1935, his Op. 9 in 1947, so you might reasonably conclude the composer was a slow worker – which he was.  He was also a very self-critical perfectionist whose catalog of works is rather small, but exquisitely crafted.  In all, Duruflé's output comprises less than 15 published works, of which seven are for organ. Duruflé's music is firmly embedded in the French tradition of organ composers like César Franck and Louis Vierne, and orchestral composers like Debussy, Ravel, and Duruflé's own composition teacher, Paul Dukas.  The great French organist Marie-Claire Alain, when asked to describe Duruflé's music, replied "it is a perfectly honest art… He was not an innovator but a traditionalist… Duruflé evolved and amplified the old traditions, making them his own."  Music Played in Today's Program Maurice Durufle (1902-1986) — Organ Suite, Op. 5 (Todd Wilson, o (Schudi organ at St. Thomas Aquinas Church in Dallas, Texas)) Delos 3047 On This Day Births 1752 - Italian composer Muzio Clementi, in Rome; 1878 - English composer Rutland Boughton, in Aylesbury; Deaths 1837 - Irish composer John Field, age 54, in Moscow (Julian date: Jan.11); 1908 - American composer and pianist Edward MacDowell, age 47, in New York; 1981 - American composer Samuel Barber, age 70, in New York; Premieres 1724 - Bach: Sacred Cantata No. 73 ("Herr, wie du willst, so schicks mit mir") performed on the 3rd Sunday after Epiphany as part of Bach's first annual Sacred Cantata cycle in Leipzig (1723/24); 1729 - Bach: Sacred Cantata No. 156 ("Ich steh mit einem Fuss im Grabe") probably performed in Leipzig on the 3rd Sunday after Epiphany as part of Bach's fourth annual Sacred Cantata cycle (to texts by Christian Friedrich Henrici, a.k.a.

Burleigh; 1943 - Duke Ellington and his orchestra present their first concert at Carngie Hall in New York, presenting the "official" premiere of Ellington's "Black, Brown and Beige" Suite (This work had received its world premiere at a trial performance the preceding day at Rye High School in Rye, New York).

Synopsis The year 2000 marked both the arrival of a new millennium and the 250th anniversary of the death of the great German Baroque composer Johann Sebastian Bach. The International Bach Academy in Stuttgart decided to mark the occasion by commissioning four very different composers to write four new passion settings, one each after the Gospel accounts of the evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. A German composer, Wolfgang Rihm, was chosen for the St. Luke Passion; a Russian, Sofia Gubaidulina for St. John's; an Argentine, Osvaldo Golijov for St. Mark's; and a Chinese composer, Tan Dun, for the Passion according to St. Matthew. And on today's date in 2000, Helmuth Rilling conducted the world premiere of Tan Dun's “Water Passion after St. Matthew.” Tan said he was struck by the references to water in St. Matthew's gospel, so his setting includes seventeen large, illuminated bowls of water, positioned on stage in the form of a cross. These divide the chorus, with three percussionists and a group of additional soloists stationed at the four points of this cross. In Tan's “Water Passion,” natural sounds of water mix with a wide range of vocal techniques, including Tuvan throat singing and the stylized virtuosity of Peking Opera.

Synopsis Today’s date marks two anniversaries in the life of American composer, teacher, and organist Leo Sowerby, who lived from 1895 to 1968. Sowerby was born on May 1st in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and on his 32nd birthday in 1927, was hired as the permanent organist and choirmaster at St. James’ Church in Chicago, where he remained for the next 35 years. Sowerby wrote hundreds of pieces of church music for organ and chorus, plus chamber and symphonic works, which are only recently receiving proper attention. It’s not that Sowerby was neglected during his lifetime–he won many awards, including a Pulitzer Prize in 1946–but many seemed “put off” by both his unabashedly Romantic style and his unprepossessing physical appearance. The younger American composer Ned Rorem, who took theory lessons from Sowerby, puts it this way: “Leo Sowerby was … of my parents’ generation, a bachelor, reddish-complexioned and milky skinned, chain smoker of Fatima cigarettes, unglamorous and non-mysterious, likable with a perpetual worried frown, overweight and wearing rimless glasses, earthy, practical, interested in others even when they were talentless; a stickler for basic training, Sowerby was the first composer I knew and the last thing a composer was supposed to resemble.” Music Played in Today's Program Leo Sowerby (1895 – 1968) Classic Concerto David Mulbury, organ; Fairfield Orchestra; John Welsh, cond.

A cura di Massimiliano SamsaLa puntata di questa sera è dedicata interamente a Antonin Dvoràk (1841 - 1904).La Serenata per archi op. 22 fu scritta nel 1875 in soli 12 giorni. Quello fu un anno speciale per il compositore ceco: il governo austriaco infatti, grazie ad una commissione di cui erano membri fra gli altri il critico Eduard Hanslick e Johanncs Brahms gli concesse una borsa di studio che costituì per Dvorak il vero e proprio trampolino di lancio verso i più importanti circoli musicali europei. Nessuno dei membri della commissione lo conosceva personalmente, ma, come raccontò lo stesso Hanslick più tardi, essi rimasero colpiti da quel talento straordinario. E in seguito fu proprio Brahms a raccomandare Dvorak al prestigioso editore Simrock, presso il quale uscirono tutte le sue opere principali.La prima esecuzione della Serenata era stata prevista per la fine del 1875 a Vienna sotto la direzione del celebre direttore Hans Richter (con il quale Dvorak intesse una preziosa amicizia) ma alcuni inconvenienti costrinsero a rimandarla all'anno seguente a Praga sotto la direzione di un'altra celebre bacchetta, Adolf Cech. Ripartita in cinque movimenti in forma di suite, la Serenata op. 22 è un brano di intensa carica melodica e di grande fascino.Le nove Sinfonie sono il punto d'incontro del Dvorak popolare e del Dvorak educato alla tradizione tedesca, in quanto la ricca invenzione melodica s'unisce alla riflessione su come fosse possibile, dopo Beethoven e Schubert e accanto a Brahms, espandere la Sinfonia oltre le regole convenzionali. La Sinfonia n. 7 in re minore op. 70 (fino ad alcuni anni fa indicata come n. 2: quest'oscillazione dipende dal fatto che quattro Sinfonie giovanili sono state riscoperte solo in tempi recenti) ha un carattere equilibrato, compatto e austero, che si potrebbe definire brahmsiano: in effetti pare che il successo della Terza Sinfonia di Brahms avesse fatto nascere in Dvorak - la cui notorietà era allora legata al successo delle Danze slave - il desiderio di dimostrare di non essere inferiore al grande maestro tedesco, nei cui confronti provava ammirazione e amicizia. Diretta dallo stesso Dvorak a Londra nel 1885, questa Sinfonia ebbe un immediato successo, tuttavia fu poi eclissata dalla celeberrima Sinfonia "Dal Nuovo Mondo". Ingiustamente, perché è una delle Sinfonie più mature e profonde del compositore boemo.Sitografia:https://www.flaminioonline.it/Guide/Dvorak/Dvorak-Serenata22.htmlhttps://www.flaminioonline.it/Guide/Dvorak/Dvorak-Sinfonia7.htmlAntonin Dvoràk (1841 - 1904) - Serenata per archi in mi maggiore, op. 22 (B. 52)I.

Die Bratsche hat Antonin Dvorak als junger Mann im Caféhaus-Orchester spielen gelernt, und er selbst hat dann auch mitgespielt viele Jahre später bei der Uraufführung seines Streichquintetts Es-Dur op. 97. Dieses ist in Amerika entstanden und Resultat eines unbeschwerten, glücklichen Sommers. Komponiert ist dieses Quintett für die Besetzung Streichquartett mit zusätzlicher Bratsche; die Musik ist also durchzogen von dieser etwas dunkleren, milderen Instrumentenfarbe, da hier gleich zwei Bratschen mit von der Partie sind. Die nicht standardisierte Besetzung ist vermutlich auch der Grund, weshalb das Stück weniger oft aufgeführt wird als das fast zeitgleich entstandene «amerikanische» Streichquartett Nr. 12. An der Musik liegt es sicher nicht: Die ist frisch gedacht und originell geformt, und auch von einer «herrlichen, fast nicht mehr zu ertragenden Glückseligkeit» durchzogen, wie es ein Musikforscher charakterisiert hat. Wobei das nicht mit Oberflächlichkeit zu verwechseln ist. Welche Aufnahme die Herausforderungen, die diese Musik stellt, am überzeugendsten meistert, darüber diskutieren der Bratschist Markus Fleck und der Musikwissenschaftler Jakob Knaus zusammen mit Norbert Graf.

Oslooperans förre chef Paul Curran är från skotsk arbetarklass, feminist och öppen bög. Och möt Jenny Hval, författare och kompositör, och numera avlidna Nina Krohn från norska radions musikredaktion. Birgitta Tollan gör självsvåldiga nedslag i musiklivet i sex städer: Reykjavik, New York, Oslo, Helsingfors, Berlin och Köpenhamn. Har vardera stad en speciell musiksjäl? Vi möter musiker, tonsättare, operachefer, operasångerskor, ensembler, programläggare, kritiker, festivaldirektörer och musikvetare. Det är dags för Oslo! Möt Oslooperans nya chef, Paul Curran, som är uppvuxen i skotsk arbetarklass, är feminist och lever öppet som bög. Han säsongsöppnar nya Oslo-operan med Norgepremiär av Antonin Dvoráks Rusalka, i sin egen regi. - En vän beskriver mig som en Jack Russel-terrier. Ni vet, de där små engelska hundarna med starka ben och tänder. Min hårda uppväxt I Glasgow gav mig styrka, säger Paul Curran.   - Min cellokonsert är inspirerad av Hardingfelan och norsk folkmusik, berättar cellisten Lene Grenager i den experimenterande gruppen SPUNK, som var den första ensemble som gav konsert på nya oslooperans tak. Ett av deras projekt sträcker sig över 12 år och har titeln Das Wohltemperirte SPUNK.   - Det mest intressanta är det som föregår tvärs över genregränserna. Musiklivet har varit dominerat av stora institutioner som symfoniorkestrar och operahus, vilka har haft enorm makt över kvalitetsbegreppet. Den positionen har blivit mindre. Det är sunt, säger tonsättaren Lars Petter Hagen, ny direktör för Ultima-festivalen.   Författaren och kompositören Jenny Hval, även känd som Rockettothesky, skapar musikaliska rum där hennes intima röst står mot den jättestora klangen. - Det är en frihet att använda den lilla, ljusa, höga rösten som i historien ansetts vara häxaktig, hysterisk, menstruerande eller jungfrulik, säger Jenny Hval.   I programmet medverkar även Nina Krohn, den numera avlidna redaktören vid norska radions musikredaktion och sångerskan och musikkritikern Astrid Kvalbein.   Spellista: Untitled In CoF Minor A Valentine To Sherwood Anderson Mikhail/Gertrude Stein Mikhail.
