In part one of our series on classical composer and pianist, Franz Liszt, we examine the earliest parts of the young prodigy's life. Though he was born the son of a humble bookkeeper, by age seven Franz would demonstrate such unbelievable skill on the piano that he would be accepted as a pupil in Vienna under the tutelage of the legendary composers Carl Czerny, and Antonio Salieri. But that was just the beginning of his rise to superstardom, as before he reached the age of 15, Franz would perform concerts in front of nearly every King and Queen in Europe, stir his audiences into a screaming frenzy, and stun his orchestras into silence... mid-performance. Buckle your seatbelts, everyone: we're just getting warmed up with the birth of the world's first rockstar. Tune in for part one of our series on Franz Liszt to learn more! (Ep. 030)

Antonio Salieri havia alcançado uma elevada posição social, sendo frequentemente associado com outros celebrizados compositores, como Joseph Haydn ou Louis Spohr. Desempenhou um papel importante na música clássica do século XIX e ensinou compositores famosos como Ludwig Van Beethoven, Carl Czerny, Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Franz Liszt, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Ignaz Moscheles, Franz Schubert e Franz Xaver Süssmayr. Ensinou também ao filho mais novo de Mozart, Franz Xaver Apresentado por Aroldo Glomb com participação especial de Aarão Barreto, nosso padrinho!

Our Spring concert series begins with the vibrant Kaha Trio, all students from the University of Auckland School of music. They start with Bach's unique and beautiful fifth cello suite. They follow with Beethoven's piano sonata no 24 in F# major which, according to Carl Czerny, Beethoven singled out along with the “Appassionata” as one of his favourite sonatas. Chopin‘s Andante spianato et grande polonaise brilliante op. 22 for piano will draw the listeners in with its dreamy opening movement contrasted with the dramatic dance movement.

Beethoven war 27 Jahre jung, als er seine Klaviersonate op. 7 drucken liess. Er nannte sie «Grande Sonate», was einmal ihrem Umfang angemessen ist, dann aber auch Beethovens eigenem Anspruch entspricht. Beethovens Schüler Carl Czerny nannte sie später sogar «eine frühe Appassionata». Trotzdem ist diese Nummer 4 von Beethovens insgesamt 32 Klaviersonaten keine sehr bekannte Sonate geworden; Pianistinnen und Pianisten spielen sie meist erst dann, wenn sie eine Totale der Sonaten planen und in ihre Übersicht auch dieses Werk mit einbeziehen. Das Stück lohnt aber natürlich den genauen Blick bzw. das genaue Hinhören, denn was besonders spannend ist an dieser Musik: Wie der junge Beethoven es schafft, die vier Sätze, die jeweils sehr unterschiedlich sind, zu einem Ganzen zusammenzufassen und Entwicklungen genauso wie Kontraste zu gestalten. Gäste von Norbert Graf sind der Pianist Manuel Bärtsch und der Musikwissenschaftler Hans-Joachim Hinrichsen.

It's the series 3 finale so it's time for a big one - settle in for an epic adventure as we read Little Snow White!

 Filicide, attempted cannibalism, talking mirrors, seven little helpers, a very poisonous apple - it's the story you know and love but even more unpleasant and violent. Chatting with her mirror, a queen learns that her step-daughter is grown beautiful than she is. So she decides to kill her and eat the girl's heart. But Little Snow White escapes and finds shelter in a strange cottage, home to seven unexpected tenants. When the queen discovers Snow White is alive, she beings to weave dastardly plots, determined to put an end to Snow White for good. After the story we ask the important questions, including why would you drink wine from a mug? And is Snow White really a shoe? We then compare the story with other incarnations of the folktale, speculate on the validity of the “real-life” Snow White, hear tell of the incredible connection to Alan Turing, and finally explore the true meaning of the tale.  We've had a total blast this series, we hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have.

Comincio oggi con un personale omaggio a Venezia, ricordando il profumo della mia giovinezza, trascorsa al Conservatorio Benedetto Marcello. Qui ho avuto modo di incontrare dei grandi maestri, come Ugo Amendola, Gino Gorini ed Eugenio Bagnoli. Ad Amendola va il mio primo caro ricordo, colmo di gratitudine: pianista, compositore, e grande direttore del Conservatorio. La puntata, però, verrà dedicata ai duetti di pianoforte eseguiti in primis dal maestro Gino Gorini e dal maestro Sergio Lorenzi, sodalizio durato più di trent'anni. Alla morte del maestro Lorenzi, si compone un altro legame artistico fra i maestri Gorini ed Eugenio Bagnoli. Le capacità e le rispettive personalità si fondevano e diventavano preziosamente complementari. Questi sodalizi pianistici si sono esibiti in tutto il mondo. Ascolteremo un omaggio eseguito dal primo duo: Gorini - Lorenzi, in Debussy, “Lindaraja”. Successivamente, il piano concerto in do maggiore, opera 153, di Carl Czerny: concerto live del 1985 eseguito dal duo Gorini - Bagnoli. Per finire, ancora Gorini - Bagnoli che eseguono Bach - corale 147. Il finale è pura poesia. Buon ascolto da Lorella Turchetto Michieli. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/radio-nostra/support

Andante cantabile (12:38)3. Rondo. Allegretto (18:38)Prima esecuzione: 18 febbraio 1796 London Mozart PlayersHoward Shelley, pianoforte--------------------Carl Czerny era figlio di un pianista che lo introdusse nel mondo della musica, studiò pedagogia ed all'età di 15 anni era già un insegnante molto apprezzato. Visse a Vienna insegnando pianoforte (tra i suoi allievi Franz Liszt) e fu allievo di Antonio Salieri, Johann Georg Albrechtsberger e di Beethoven, dal 1801 al 1803, che dopo averlo sentito suonare, propose appunto di dargli lezioni private. All'età di dieci anni nel suo repertorio erano presenti la maggior parte delle opere per pianoforte di Mozart, Clementi e di altri compositori dell'epoca. Fu un musicista dotato di una memoria stupefacente, che gli consentì di suonare l'opera integrale delle sonate di Beethoven. Si dedicò con interesse alla didattica pianistica per la quale scrisse numerosi Studi (più di 1000) che da allora vengono considerati alla base dell'insegnamento del pianoforte.Compose anche sinfonie, ouverture, cantate e musiche da camera. Alla morte di Beethoven trascrisse alcune sue importanti opere, come le nove sinfonie, per pianoforte a quattro mani, su incarico di Heinrich Albert Probst.La sua revisione del Clavicembalo ben temperato di Johann Sebastian Bach ebbe un'enorme influenza sull'interpretazione bachiana dei secoli successivi e la pubblicazione parziale delle sonate di Scarlatti sarà fondamentale per la diffusione delle opere di un compositore allora ancora poco noto presso il grande pubblico.Testo tratto da: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Czerny----------Figlio di Wilhelm Cramer, famoso violinista e direttore d'orchestra londinese, fratello di Franz Cramer, compositore e direttore d'orchestra londinese e proveniva da una famiglia numerosa, Johann Baptist Cramer venne portato a Londra quand'era ancora piccolo e fu proprio lì che si svilupparono le sue capacità musicali. Dal 1782 al 1784 studiò pianoforte con Muzio Clementi e presto divenne noto come pianista professionista sia a Londra che in tutta Europa. Ebbe una reputazione mondiale e fu anche molto apprezzato da Beethoven.Cramer fu anche un importante compositore e fondò nel 1824 la London music-publishing house of Cramer & Co. Ha scritto diverse sonate per pianoforte e altre composizioni, ma gli studi sono il lavoro che più l'hanno reso noto e per cui è conosciuto tuttora. Questi studi sono apparsi in numerose edizioni e sono diventati pezzi fondamentali per lo studio del pianoforte.Testo tratto da: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Baptist_Cramer

Er war nicht nur ein genialer Komponist, sondern ein ebenso virtuoser Pianist und Improvisator. Reflexionen über Ludwig van Beethovens Arbeitsweise mit der Musikwissenschaftlerin Corinne Holtz und dem Jazzpianisten Hans Feigenwinter. Beethovens Fantasie für Klavier op. 77 lässt erahnen, wie der Komponist improvisiert hat. Sein Schüler Carl Czerny sagte über dieses Stück: «Diese sehr geistreiche Fantasie gibt ein getreues Bild von der Art, wie er zu improvisieren pflegte. Wenn er kein bestimmtes Thema durchführen wollte und sich daher seinem Genie in Erfindung immer neuer Motive überliess.» Und Beethovens zum Teil sehr chaotische und mehrfach überarbeitete Autographe zeigen, mit wie viel Beharrlichkeit und Sorgfalt er an seinen Ideen arbeitete. Bis jeder Ton auch wirklich an seinem richtigen Platz war.

1996 gewann das Klavierduo Liuben Dimitrov und Aglika Genova den zweiten Preis beim Internationalen Musikwettbewerb der ARD. Seither kann das Künstlerehepaar auf eine steile Karriere zurückblicken, auch auf die Einspielung von mehr als einem Dutzend CDs. Die vorliegende präsentiert Konzerte von Carl Czerny und Max Bruch. "Höchst überzeugend", sagt Oswald Beaujan.

Ulrich Möller-Arnsberg stellt mit dem Pianisten Christoph Hammer die Fantasie für Klavier op.27 von Czerny vor.

Completed in 1824, the Ninth Symphony is one of the best-known works of the Western repertoire, considered both an icon and a forefather of Romantic music, and one of Beethoven's greatest masterpieces. The composer struggled for more than ten years before completing the work, and turned to the mighty Missa Solemnis while he considered his final symphony. Using voices in an orchestral symphony had never been attempted before. Beethoven finally decided to incorporate part of the Ode an die Freude (“Ode to Joy”), a poem by Friedrich Schiller, with text sung by soloists and a chorus in the new symphony's last movement. It is, indeed, the first example of a major composer using the human voice on the same level with instruments in a symphony, creating a work of a grand scope that sets the tone for the Romantic symphonic form.

London Symphony Orchestra, Bernard Haitink from "Beethoven: Symphonies Nos. 4 & 8" (LSO Live) Buy at iTunes Music Store Buy at eMusic Buy at Rhapsody Stream from Rhapsody Buy at Amazon MP3 More On This Album Symphony No. 8 in F Major, Op. 93 The work was begun in the summer of 1812, immediately after the completion of the Seventh Symphony. At the time Beethoven was 41 years old. As Antony Hopkins has noted, the cheerful mood of the work betrays nothing of the grossly unpleasant events that were taking place in Beethoven's life at the time, which involved his interference in his brother Johann's love life. The work took Beethoven only four months to complete, and was dedicated to the banker Count Moritz Fries, who, according to Karl Holz, paid Beethoven a regular subsidy for some years until his bankruptcy in 1825. The premiere took place on February 27, 1814, at a concert at which the mighty Seventh Symphony (which had been premiered two months earlier) was also played. Beethoven was growing increasingly deaf at the time, but nevertheless led the premiere. Reportedly, "the orchestra largely ignored his ungainly gestures and followed the principal violinist instead". Critics immediately noted that the Eighth did not reach the heights of its predecessor, launching a long tradition of complaining that the Eighth Symphony is not something different (more heroic, more emotive) from what it is. However, many listeners seem to be able to enjoy the symphony anyway, and it appears frequently today on concert programs as well as on recordings. When asked by his pupil Carl Czerny why the Eighth was less popular than the Seventh, Beethoven is said to have replied "because the Eighth is so much better." A critic wrote that "the applause it [the Eighth Symphony] received was not accompanied by that enthusiasm which distinguishes a work which gives universal delight; in short-as the Italians say-it did not create a furor." Beethoven was angered at this reception because he considered the Eighth "much better" than the Seventh. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._8_(Beethoven) http://www.lso.co.uk
