Podcasts about Daniel Barenboim

Voormalig minister van Justitie en Veiligheid Ferd Grapperhaus wordt zwaar beveiligd vanwege 'ernstige dreigingen' uit de onderwereld. De voortvluchtige crimineel 'Bolle Jos' Leijdekkers zou achter de bedreigingen zitten. Misdaadverslaggever Jan Meeus schetst wie deze Bolle Jos is en waarom een voormalig minister bedreigd wordt. 1 februari is het 70 jaar geleden dat de Watersnoodramp plaatsvond. Tijdens de ramp zette een groep van ruim 300 oester- en mosselschippers uit Yerseke een reddingsactie op touw. Gek genoeg is er weinig over deze helden bekend. Anneke Jumelet tekende hun verhalen op in het boek Het water is kwaad. Ze vertelt onder andere over haar vader, die één van de redders was. De 80-jarige pianist en dirigent Daniel Barenboim stopt na dertig jaar als chef-dirigent bij de Berlijnse Staatsopera. Zijn gezondheid is zo achteruit gegaan, dat hij zijn werk niet meer kan uitvoeren. Dirigent Jurjen Hempel bespreekt het muzikale werk van de fenomenale pianist. Henk Swinnen, manager bij de Belgische pianobouwer Maene vertelt over de speciale piano die ze maakten voor de Barenboim. Jazz-musicus, drummer, acteur én presentator Edwin Rutten is jarig: 80 jaar werd hij deze week. Hij blikt terug op zijn veelzijdige en bijzonder lange carrière.

Synopsis In the hands of a great performer, the violin can sing with the personality and intensity of a great opera singer. Pyrotechnics may dazzle, but nothing moves an audience as much as when a great violinist "sings" through his instrument. On today's date in 1896, a French audience in Nancy must has been so moved when the great violinist Eugène Ysaÿe gave the first performance of this music: the Poème for Violin and Orchestra by Ernest Chausson. In addition to famous artists like Manet and Degas, Chausson counted among his friends many of the great musicians of his day, including the great violinist Ysäye. Although they admired his work, Chausson was not always appreciated by the public. But when Ysaÿe premiered Chausson's Poème in Paris in 1897, the applause went on and on. Used to just the opposite reaction, Chausson was stunned by his success, and, while thanking Ysaye profusely, kept repeating to himself: "I just can't believe it!" Two modern-day violinists, Joshua Bell and Pamela Frank, were the inspiration for this songful contemporary work by Aaron Jay Kernis. Titled Air for Violin, it was originally composed for violin and piano, and premiered in 1995 by Joshua Bell. The following year, Pamela Frank and the Minnesota Orchestra premiered a new version of Air for violin and orchestra. Music Played in Today's Program Ernest Chausson (1855-1899) Poème, Op. 25 Isaac Stern, violin; Orchestre de Paris; Daniel Barenboim, conductor.

The Spanish pianist Javier Perianes is racking up quite a lot of frequent flyer miles these days. This season alone, his concert schedule has him zigzagging the globe to perform with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Dallas Symphony here in the States, Europe's Budapest Festival Orchestra and the Oslo Philharmonic, and a whirlwind trip to Australia for concerts with the Melbourne and Sydney Symphony Orchestras, among many other engagements. And while the thrill of making music with friends and colleagues around the world is a key driver for Perianes's career, his extensive travels also provide a key element that fuels his creativity: new life experiences. "When you're with a piece, you have big emotional landscapes — death, pain, suffering, hope, joy," Perianes shares on the latest episode of the Classical Post podcast. "Where can you get all those feelings to convey? You can't get that from others' lives. You can't imitate them. You have to have them deep inside you." That authentic approach to performance has served Perianes well. A prolific recording artist, he's released 20 critically acclaimed albums on the Harmonia Mundi label — and he's performed with many of today's leading conductors, including Gustavo Dudamel, Klaus Mäkelä, Daniel Barenboim, and Vladimir Jurowski. Next up for Perianes are three performances of Saint-Saëns's Fifth Piano Concerto — also known as "The Egyptian" — with the LA Phil and conductor Gustavo Gimeno. In this episode, we talk more about how he's preparing the Saint-Saëns concerto and what he hopes audiences in Los Angeles will enjoy about this seldom-heard work. Plus, Perianes shares how short siestas and long walks to work are part of his wellness routine, the Manhattan restaurants he seeks out whenever he's performing in New York, and how defining success for him is simply to "Do what you love." — Classical Post uncovers the creativity behind exceptional music.

Synopsis On this day in 1919, Edward Elgar conducted the London Symphony in the premiere performance of his new Cello Concerto, with Felix Salmond as soloist. What should have been a joyous occasion turned out to be a frustrating one — there simply wasn't enough time to rehearse properly, and the premiere was a near-fiasco. Puzzled, the less-than-full house in Queen's Hall gave Elgar a polite ovation but left shaking their heads. Mrs. Elgar blamed the conductor, Albert Coates, who hogged all the orchestra's rehearsal time working over the two pieces HE was to conduct on the same program as Elgar's new Concerto, for which Coates would hand off the baton to Elgar. In her diary for October 26th she writes, “Poor Felix Salmond in a state of suspense and nerves — wretched hurried rehearsal — an insult to Elgar from that brutal, selfish, ill-mannered bounder, Coates.” After the botched premiere of the new Concerto, critic Ernest Newman reported: “Never, in all probability, has so great an orchestra made so lamentable a public exhibition of itself.” Despite this rough beginning, Elgar's Cello Concerto has gone on to become one of the composer's best-loved works worldwide, and has proven to be a favorite with the great cellists of our time, including the late British cellist, Jacqueline du Pré. Music Played in Today's Program Sir Edward Elgar (1857-1934) Cello Concerto, Op. 85 Jacqueline du Pré, cello; Philadephia Orchestra; Daniel Barenboim, cond. Sony 60789

Donald Macleod journeys into the varied musical landscape of Adolphus Hailstork, in conversation with the composer himself. American composer Adolphus Hailstork has written in many genres ranging from orchestral and chamber, to choral, song cycles and operatic scenes. Of African-American heritage and now in his eighties, Hailstork's works have been performed by major orchestras in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia, and leading conductors have championed his music including Kurt Masur, Daniel Barenboim and Lorin Maazel. Born in 1941, his early instrumental studies included the organ, piano, violin and the voice, but it was his experience both in the Anglican Cathedral tradition, and hearing and singing spirituals, that have had a significant impact upon the development of his own musical language. For many years he's been a Professor of Music at the Old Dominion University in Norfolk, and he resides in the state of Virginia, USA. His own list of teachers is impressive, not least of all Nadia Boulanger at the American Institute at Fontainebleau. Hailstork's own reputation has been significant, and he's been called the Dean of African-American composers.

Amanhã é anunciado o Prémio Nobel da Paz. Não está previsto que este vá para Daniel Barenboim, mas o percurso dele bem o merecia. A crónica de Francisco Sena Santos.

Episode: 2308 A twentieth-year reminder of what we're trying to accomplish.  Today, twenty years together.

Synopsis On today's date in 1907, the "Pomp and Circumstance" March No. 4 by Sir Edward Elgar had its premiere performance in London. Say "Pomp and Circumstance" to most people and they will start humming the tune of Number One, later set to words as "Land of Hope and Glory." That march accompanied many of us down the aisle at our high school or college graduations. In all, Elgar composed five "Pomp and Circumstance" marches, and meant to write a sixth, but just never got around to it. No. 1 is the most familiar, but No. 4 runs a close second, with another very noble, very British main tune. During World War II, Sir Alan Herbert fitted his "Song of Freedom" to this music and with its opening line of "All men must be free," it became an unofficial alternate British national anthem. Meanwhile on these shores, we note that one of America's classic chamber jazz ensembles was founded on today's date in 1951 in New York City , when the Modern Jazz Quartet was formed by pianist John Lewis, vibraphonist Milt Jackson, bassist Percy Heath, and drummer Kenny Clarke. Under the direction of Lewis, the Quartet fused jazz improvisation with classical forms and Baroque counterpoint. Instead of playing in smoky bars, MJQ made a point of playing in concert halls and even wore tuxes, asking audiences to afford their chamber jazz the same attention and respect usually reserved for classical music.

Synopsis Decades after their deaths, Richard Strauss and Dmitri Shostakovich still remain politically controversial. Strauss worked in Nazi Germany under Hitler, and Shostakovich in the Soviet Union under Stalin. Was their art compromised by politics – and should that influence how we hear their music today? In July of 1935, Strauss pleaded with Hitler for a personal meeting to explain his resignation as President of Germany's office of musical affairs. He needn't have bothered: the Gestapo had intercepted a letter Strauss had sent to the Jewish writer, Stefan Zweig, the Austrian librettist of Strauss' latest opera. In that letter, Strauss mocked the Nazi's obsession with race and urged Zweig to continue to work with him, even if they would have to meet in secret. Strauss was asked to resign, and, anxious to avoid further trouble for himself and his family, appealed directly to Hitler, who never responded. Dmitri Shostakovich also ran afoul of his dictator when, in 1936, Stalin attended Shostakovich's opera “Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk” and hated it. The next day, Shostakovich was harshly condemned in the official press, and lived in terror for the rest of Stalin's reign, redirecting his music according to Party line and making obsequious political utterances whenever asked. Even so, many today claim to hear both terror AND heroic – if coded – resistance in Shostakovich's best scores.

The last time we had conductor/pianist William (Bill) Eddens on the program, the conversation covered everything from Daniel Barenboim and "play conducting" to craft beer and Mozart's piano concertos. Now Bill returns to perform on the podium with the Toledo Symphony with returning guest pianist Stewart Goodyear, and we're still talking about all those things and more (just swap Beethoven for Mozart!).

This weekend sees the final installment in the Toledo Symphony's Festival of 88, which highlight the keys of Mozart's favored instrument by pairing one of his most popular concerti with a TSO premiere. Guest conductor/pianist William Eddins joins us for an entertaining rundown on Mozart, Craft (and Canadian) Beer, English Cars, Daniel Barenboim, Play Conducting, and much, much, much, much more!

We celebrate our 100th episode (!) with some of the most hilarious moments from our past three seasons, including Bernstein à la Shakespeare via TSO thespian Bob Clemens; pre-eminent conductor/pianist William Eddins' impression of Daniel Barenboim; our never-ending New Year's episode, and "Felecia's Kazoo" (enough said). Also, a never before heard blooper reel from our first season Messiah podcast with conductor Sara Jobin. Come join the party!
