Modernes Klavier oder historisches Cembalo: Manche Pianisten machen daraus eine Glaubensfrage, wenn es um die Musik von Johann Sebastian Bach geht. Bach selbst war da pragmatisch: Er spielte alle Tasteninstrumente, die gerade im Raum standen. Egal ob Cembalo, Orgel, Clavichord oder Hammerklavier. Der junge Pianist Jonathan Ferrucci spielt Bachs Toccaten auf einem modernen Yamaha-Flügel - und das klingt ganz phantastisch.

Interpreten: Kristian Bezuidenhout, Freiburger Barockorchester Label: harmonia mundi EAN: 3149020952030 Seit vielen Jahren gestaltet der Pianist Kristian Bezuidenhout mit dem Freiburger Barockorchester Konzerte und CD-Aufnahmen. Gemeinsam haben sie u.a. Werke von Mendelssohn und sämtliche Klavierkonzerte von Beethoven aufgenommen. Ein Schwerpunkt der gemeinsamen Arbeit liegt jedoch auf den Klavierkonzerten W.A. Mozarts und zwei der großen Konzerte sind auf unserer CD der Woche zu erleben. Mehr dazu von Michael Gmasz. Schon seit einigen Jahren gehört der australische Pianist südafrikanischer Herkunft Kristian Bezuidenhout zur crème de la crème der Hammerklavier- und Cembalovirtuosen. Ob mit Solowerken, im Bereich der Kammermusik oder als Solist mit Orchester, seine Interpretationen sind nicht nur fundiert historisch informiert, sondern nehmen uns als Zuhörer auch immer ein und machen gehörigen Zuhörspaß. Da es sich mit dem Freiburger Barockorchester, hier von Konzertmeister Gottfried von der Golz geleitet, ebenso verhält, ist die Kombination beider Kräfte eine nicht zu unterschätzende Qualitätsmacht. Hier bei Mozart wieder einmal nachzuhören. Mit den beiden Konzerten KV 459 und KV 488 setzen Bezuidenhout und die Freiburger ihre Zusammenarbeit sehr erfolgreich und auch sehr populär fort. Gehört vor allem das A-Dur Konzert KV 488 doch zu den populärsten und meistgespielten Werken Mozarts. Ein Konzert, das auch den Klarinettisten der Freiburger einen Einsatz beschert, hat doch Mozart hier anstatt der üblichen Oboen die Klarinetten gewählt. Schon die Introduktion klingt ausgesprochen beschwingt und kristallklar im Ton. Wie bei der Kammermusik geben einander Orchester und Solist danach die musikalische Führung in die Hand. Hier spielt kein Solist mit Begleitung sondern es ist ein großes Miteinander, bei dem jeder und jede die eigene Rolle kennt und wunderbar ausführt. Stellt sich nur die Frage, ist jemand, der Hammerklavier spielt auch automatisch ein Hammerpianist? Wohl eher nicht, auf Kristian Bezuidenhout trifft die Bezeichnung jedoch vollends zu! (mg)

This Day in Legal History: WIPO EstablishedOn April 26, 1970, a significant advancement in the protection and management of intellectual property took place with the establishment of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). This marked the enforcement of the Convention Establishing WIPO, making it one of the specialized agencies under the United Nations focused on intellectual property (IP) issues. WIPO's primary mission is to promote and protect intellectual property across different countries by fostering international cooperation. As of now, 184 countries are signatories to the convention, showcasing a global commitment to the principles laid out by WIPO.WIPO plays a crucial role in the development of a balanced and accessible international IP system, which benefits both creators and the public, thereby contributing to economic, social, and cultural development worldwide. The organization administers 26 international treaties, including the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property and the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works. These treaties serve as the backbone for international IP law, standardizing the protection of IP across borders and promoting creative activity globally.WIPO also assists countries in developing their IP strategies and provides a platform for dispute resolution concerning IP. Through its various programs, WIPO enhances the ability of countries to utilize IP for economic development. Additionally, WIPO's efforts include tackling the challenges of IP in relation to new technologies, which continually reshape the boundaries of law and creativity.The creation of WIPO in 1970 was a response to the growing significance of intellectual property in the age of technological and artistic innovation, recognizing the need for a systematic approach to IP issues that transcended national borders. Today, WIPO continues to evolve as it addresses emerging issues in intellectual property influenced by the digital age and globalization, underscoring its ongoing relevance in international legal and economic landscapes.The Supreme Court is currently deliberating on Donald Trump's assertion of immunity from prosecution regarding charges that he illegally tried to remain in power. During a hearing, there was notable skepticism from the justices towards Trump's broad claims of immunity relating to his efforts to overturn the election results of 2020. Chief Justice John Roberts suggested possibly remanding the case back to lower courts for a more detailed examination of the allegations, indicating that the appeals court had not sufficiently scrutinized the specifics of the actions and documents in question.Justice Brett Kavanaugh expressed concerns about the potential long-term implications of making presidents vulnerable to prosecution for their official acts, fearing it could cyclically affect future presidents. Meanwhile, the liberal justices questioned the absence of constitutional immunity for presidents, highlighting the risk of a president acting without fear of legal consequences. Justice Amy Coney Barrett also challenged the idea that former presidents could only be prosecuted post-impeachment.The case underscores the urgency from Special Counsel Jack Smith, who is pressed by time constraints to try Trump before the upcoming election, given that a trial and subsequent conviction could adversely affect Trump's electoral prospects. Trump, facing multiple prosecutions, has argued for absolute immunity for actions taken while in office, which include his conduct leading up to and on January 6th.There are fundamental questions that must be addressed about the scope of presidential power and its limits, which are central to the case's legal and constitutional stakes.Supreme Court Wary of Trump Immunity But May Keep Trial on HoldThe Biden administration's Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program, a key component of the Inflation Reduction Act aimed at reducing the costs of certain Medicare Part D drugs by 2026, has attracted significant legal attention. Numerous former government officials, scholars, and patient advocacy groups have filed amicus briefs supporting the administration in response to legal challenges from the pharmaceutical industry, which contests the constitutionality of the program.These challenges involve several constitutional claims by the pharmaceutical companies, including violations of compelled speech under the First Amendment, the takings clause and due process under the Fifth Amendment, and excessive fines under the Eighth Amendment. The industry argues that the program unlawfully compels them to sell their products at government-dictated prices without just compensation.However, a notable decision by Chief Judge Colm F. Connolly dismissed AstraZeneca's due process claims, asserting that the manufacturer did not have a constitutional property interest jeopardized by the program. This decision aligns with several key legal precedents cited in various amicus briefs that reinforce the government's position.The case also touches on broader implications for governmental regulatory powers and the limits of constitutional protections for businesses under economic regulation frameworks. Legal experts and scholars have argued that the claims raised by the pharmaceutical industry stretch constitutional interpretations to protect against price negotiation practices that have been historically upheld as constitutional.The legal battle also involves a debate over the First Amendment, with the government asserting that the program does not compel speech from drug manufacturers. Judges and legal experts have scrutinized these claims, emphasizing the potential impact of accepting such an interpretation on a wide range of regulatory activities.While the majority of amicus briefs support the government, a few filed on behalf of the pharmaceutical industry focus on concerns about stifling drug innovation and the severe financial penalties imposed for non-compliance with the program's pricing mandates.The ongoing legal proceedings at the district court level, though less common for amicus filings than higher courts, play a crucial role in shaping the preliminary legal landscape before potentially reaching the Supreme Court. The involvement of high-level legal expertise in the form of amicus briefs underscores the significant stakes and complex legal issues at play, reflecting the profound implications of the outcome on the healthcare sector and regulatory practices.Wave of Amicus Briefs Back Drug Price Plan at Trial Court StageThe EPA's recent final rule under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as the Superfund law, designates two PFAS chemicals—perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS)—as hazardous substances. This designation is expected to significantly impact companies responsible for contaminated sites, potentially leading to the reevaluation and cleanup of sites previously considered resolved.The rule aims to address sites contaminated with PFOA and PFOS, which are part of a group of chemicals known as "forever chemicals" due to their persistence in the environment. Currently, only a small fraction of National Priorities List (NPL) sites have been identified as contaminated with these substances, but this number is expected to rise as more comprehensive testing is implemented. The EPA's action follows increasing evidence of the health risks associated with high concentrations of these chemicals, including potential links to cancer and other serious health issues.Companies and other entities responsible for releases of these chemicals will face new reporting requirements if they release one pound or more of PFOA or PFOS within a 24-hour period. These reports will contribute to the Toxics Release Inventory and are part of broader efforts to increase transparency and regulatory oversight regarding PFAS releases into the environment.The designation of PFOA and PFOS as hazardous substances under CERCLA is likely to lead to significant legal and financial implications for responsible parties due to the costly nature of cleanup efforts and potential litigation. Moreover, the rule's implications extend beyond immediate cleanup efforts, potentially impacting water utilities and prompting them to seek remediation and accountability from polluters as stricter limits on PFAS in tap water are set to take effect.This regulatory change reflects a growing recognition of the serious environmental and health impacts of PFAS chemicals, and it aligns with broader environmental justice efforts to address pollution exposure disparities among racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups. The long-term challenges of managing PFAS contamination will involve complex legal, environmental, and public health considerations, particularly as affected communities and regulatory agencies navigate the implications of these pervasive pollutants.New PFAS Designation Expected to Spark Rise in Superfund SitesHarvey Weinstein's 2020 conviction for sexual assault and rape was overturned by New York's highest court on April 25, 2024. The court, in a closely contested 4-3 decision, cited critical errors by the trial judge, particularly in allowing testimony about alleged assaults that were not directly related to the charges Weinstein faced. This decision has reignited discussions about the challenges in prosecuting powerful figures and has been met with dismay by many, including actress Ashley Judd, who viewed it as an institutional betrayal.The Manhattan District Attorney's office, led by Alvin Bragg, has indicated plans to retry the case, underscoring their ongoing commitment to addressing sexual assault. The overturned conviction, which had been a significant victory for the #MeToo movement, involved allegations by Miriam Haley and Jessica Mann that dated back to 2006 and 2013, respectively.Weinstein's legal team celebrated the decision as a triumph for justice, noting Weinstein's relief and resilience despite his ongoing incarceration. He remains imprisoned on a separate 16-year sentence in California for similar charges, which stands unaffected by the New York ruling.This case has had broad implications, influencing legislation and public awareness about sexual misconduct. New York, among other states, has passed laws allowing civil lawsuits for sexual misconduct outside the typical statutes of limitations, reflecting a legislative response to #MeToo. The case's developments continue to be closely watched, with potential impacts on both legal precedents and societal norms concerning accountability for sexual violence.Harvey Weinstein's rape conviction is overturned by top New York court | ReutersThe defamation lawsuit filed by Jack and Leslie Flynn against CNN, which involved claims of being wrongfully associated with the QAnon conspiracy theory, has been dismissed by a judge. The case revolved around a CNN segment that showed the Flynns at a barbecue raising their hands while Michael Flynn, the former National Security Advisor, recited a phrase linked to QAnon. The Flynns argued that this portrayal falsely labeled them as QAnon followers, which they considered defamatory.CNN countered that the phrase "where we go one, we go all" used by Michael Flynn during the event is widely recognized as associated with QAnon, and that the Flynns were visible participants in the event. The court, upon review, determined that the term "QAnon followers" as used in the context of the CNN segment is a non-defamatory opinion, not a statement of fact. The judge ruled that opinions, especially when based on disclosed, non-defamatory facts, do not constitute defamation.Furthermore, the court highlighted that the portrayal of the Flynns in the segment was based on their actual appearance and participation in an event alongside Michael Flynn, which is not disputed by the Flynns. The dismissal reflects judicial recognition of the challenges in proving defamation when the statements in question are based on interpreted opinions rather than explicit facts. The decision underscores the importance of context in defamation cases, particularly when public figures and political movements are involved. This case also reflects ongoing legal debates about the limits of free speech and the scope of media responsibility in reporting on controversial public figures and events.Flynn Family's SLAPP Suit Against CNN Slapped Down By Judge | TechdirtThis week's closing theme is by Ludwig van Beethoven.For this week's closing piece of classical music, where we will once again delve into the towering genius of Ludwig van Beethoven and his monumental Piano Sonata No. 29 in B-flat major, Op. 106, known as the "Hammerklavier." Composed in 1819, the "Hammerklavier" Sonata stands as one of the pinnacles of Beethoven's creative output and showcases his profound depth in musical structure and expressive range.This sonata is particularly renowned for its technical difficulty and ambitious scope, pushing the boundaries of the piano sonata form of the time. Beethoven's late period, during which he composed the "Hammerklavier," is marked by an increased use of complex structures and an exploration of new musical ideas, and this sonata is a testament to his innovative spirit.This week, we will focus specifically on the second movement of this sonata, the Scherzo: Assai vivace. In stark contrast to the grandiose and deeply serious first movement, the Scherzo bursts with energy and playfulness. Its rapid tempo and lively rhythms present a dazzling display of technical prowess and artistic flair. This movement is a brilliant example of Beethoven's ability to juxtapose contrasting moods within a single piece, providing a refreshing and exhilarating counterpart to the sonata's more introspective segments.The Scherzo is structured around a lively theme that leaps and dances across the keyboard, filled with syncopated rhythms and sudden dynamic changes that challenge even the most skilled pianists. It embodies a sense of joy and almost mischievous playfulness, showcasing Beethoven's mastery in transforming musical ideas into a vivid emotional narrative.As we close this week's episode with the Scherzo from Beethoven's "Hammerklavier" Sonata, let the vivacity and brilliance of this music inspire you. It serves not only as a showcase of Beethoven's technical mastery but also his undiminished spirit and the enduring power of his music to evoke a wide range of profound emotions. Enjoy the spirited journey through one of the most challenging yet rewarding pieces in the piano repertoire.Without further ado, Beethoven's Piano Sonata no. 29 “Hammerklavier”, Op. 106 - II. Scherzo - Assai vivace. Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

Gerne hätte ich berichtet, dass alles halb so wild ist; noch in der Pause war ich dieser Überzeugung. Burgtheaterdirektor Martin Kušej hat doch schon interessante Inszenierungen geliefert. Doch am Ende muss ich sagen, die vernichtenden Medienstimmen sind berechtigt. Die Verlegung ins Mafiamilieu ist in keiner einzigen Situation überzeugend. Das Herumfuchteln mit den Pistolen erregt kaum jemanden, schon gar nicht Susanne und Figaro oder das Publikum. Negativer Höhepunkt ist das Finale des 2.Aktes, wo alle alle mit gezogener Waffe bedrohen und dabei auch noch banales Rampentheater liefern. Dass alle statisch den Dirigenten angeschaut haben, hat nichts zur Präzision beigetragen. Es war ein Chaos. Der neue Mozartstil wird diese Mischung hoffentlich nicht werden. Ich bin überzeugt, der akkurate Nikolaus Harnoncourt würde sich dagegen verwehren, von Raphaël Pichon als Vorbild genannt zu werden. Die Abkehr von zwingenden Noten hin zur Möglichkeit eigener Verzierungen wurde kaum wahrgenommen und wenn, dann mit wenig originellen Figuren. Überflüssig war auch das Geklimper vom Hammerklavier während der überlangen Umbaupausen. Auch das ohne den geringsten Bezug zu Mozarts genialer Musik. Der Asiate, der neben mir gesessen ist, hat fast die ganze Zeit durchgeschlafen. Mehr ist zum Dirigat des Herrn Pichon nicht zu sagen. Gegen die Regie und den Dirigenten haben sich nur die beiden Damen zeitweilig durchsetzen können. Zu recht kam nach der Arie der Gräfin Jubel auf. Adriana Gonzáles gestaltete das Seelengemälde einer enttäuschten Ehefrau mit schöner Stimme. Auch Sabine Devieilhe als Susanne konnte mit der Rosenarie noch Festspielniveau erreichen. Andrè Schuen habe ich schon besser gehört, gerade weil der Graf Almaviva sicher nicht zu seinen besten Rollen gehört. Gesangstechnisch ist es sicher eine Herausforderung die große Arie auf einem Bein stehend zu singen. Da wird er von einer Nackerten angezogen. Sehr witzig!!, da kann man sich voll auf die Empörung des Grafen konzentrieren ?! . Krzysztof Baczyk singt den Figaro, von Rollengestaltung keine Rede. Italienisch ist nicht seine Muttersprache. Ansprechend ist noch Lea Desandre als Cherubino. Alle andern Sänger  können sich in dieser Inszenierung nicht entwickeln. Keine Personenregie, aber auch keine kleinen Ideen. Martin Kušej ist diesmal nichts eingefallen. Das sachkundige Publikum differenzierte beim Applaus deutlich und feierte Adriana Gonzàles und Sabine Devieilhe. Auch der Schussapplaus wäre wohl schnell vorbei gewesen, hätte man das Haus für Mozart nicht lange hermetisch abgeriegelt. Wertnote: 5,3

Der Klavierstimmer trimmt unsere Instrumente auf Norm. Pioniere stürzen die Vorherrschaft der gleichschwebenden Stimmung und knüpfen mit wohlverstimmten «Clavieren» an vorbachsche Epochen an. Jedes Klavier klingt schief. Noch schiefer jede Orgel, weil die Unsauberkeiten lange nachklingen. Das liegt in der Mathematik begründet und dem unserem Tonsystem eigenen Fehler. Es ist unmöglich, alle zwölf Töne der Tonleiter so zu stimmen, dass die harmonisch wichtigsten Intervalle (Quinten und Terzen) sauber klingen. Mit dem Erlanger Traktat (um 1450) war die Forderung auf dem Tisch, die reine Terz anstelle der pythagoräischen Terz in die abendländische Musik einzuführen. Somit kamen der grosse Ganzton (9:8) und der kleine Ganzton (10:9) in die Welt. Jetzt musste ein Tonsystem gefunden werden, das unterschiedlichen Ganztönen genügte, neben der reinen Quinte auch die reine Terz enthalten sollte und zur Transponierung geeignet war. Der enharmonische Instrumentenbau florierte zuerst in Italien. Nicola Vicentino baute um 1555 das Archicemablo mit 36 Tasten pro Oktave, verteilt auf zwei Manuale mit gebrochenen Obertasten. In der Kirche San Martino in Lucca wurde 1584 eine der ersten Orgeln mit geteilter Tastatur eingeweiht. Das Klavier geht auf eine Erfindung um 1700 zurück. Bartolomeo Cristofori, Hofinstrumentenbauer von Ferdinand de Medici in Florenz, baute das erste dnyamisch abstufbare Cembalo und später das erste funktionstüchtige Hammerklavier. Wie die Tasteninstrumente (Claviere) gestimmt werden sollen, um der Vielfalt an Musik und ihren unterschiedlich gefärbten Tonarten gerecht zu werden, gibt fortan zu streiten. Auch Komponisten, allesamt abseits grosser Musikzentren wirkend, regen sich und treten der Vorherrschaft der «wohltemperierten» Stimmung entgegen. Sie beginnen schon im 19. Jahrhundert Töne zwischen den Halb- und Ganztönen zu komponieren und benötigen Claviere, auf denen ihre mikrotonale Musik erklingen kann. Corinne Holtz begibt sich mit dem Literatur- und Musikwissenschafter Silvan Moosmüller auf einen Streifzug durch die Musikgeschichte des Claviers und lädt zu Zwischenhalten in die Werkstatt von Urs Bachmann. Er überträgt die 10 kreierten Stimmungen von Edu Haubensak für 'Grosse Stimmung' auf 10 Flügel, Simone Keller probiert.

James Wood talks to Thomas Jones about Beethoven, drawing on his review of three recent books on the composer. They discuss some of the apparently immovable Beethoven mythologies – the keyboard pedagogy, the heroic glower, the many appropriations of the 9th Symphony – and the blend of Viennese tradition and radical invention which characterises his music, particularly the piano sonatas, from the ethereal melodic sweetness of The Tempest to the terrifying, thumping trills of the Hammerklavier.Read James Wood's piece here: https://lrb.me/beethovenpodSubscribe to the LRB from just £1 per issue: https://mylrb.co.uk/podcast20bPieces and recordings featured in this episode:5th Symphony: Berlin Philharmonic / Furtwängler (1954)3rd Symphony: Berlin Philharmonic / Furtwängler (1952)Piano Sonata No. 29 (‘Hammerklavier’): Barenboim (1984)Piano Sonata No. 29 (‘Hammerklavier’): Solomon (1952)Piano Sonata No. 17 (‘The Tempest’): Gould (1960)9th Symphony: Beyreuth Festival Orchestra / Furtwängler (1951)Piano Sonata No. 7: Horowitz (1959)Piano Sonata No. 26 (‘Les Adieux’): Kempff (1951)Piano Sonata No. 31: Hess (1953) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Jason Hardink just sent us a surprise—a full solo recital!—and asked if we’d share it with NOVA’s fans. Who can turn down an offer like that?A video version of this episode is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrsMs5ei6W8.Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Hammerklavier” Sonata is one of the most monumental works in the piano repertoire. The work’s nickname came from its title page, which indicated that it was written for the more modern “hammer keyboard” piano, rather than the harpsichord or other contemporary instruments. The “Hammerklavier” certainly makes full use of the piano’s dynamic range and expressive power.Brittany Green is a composer from North Carolina whose works often explore the relationship between sound, movement, and text. “Portraits” is a suite of character sketches based on poems by Bessie Irene. These movements “depict people we all know,” says the composer, ranging from “Le garçon qui passe”, who is “trying to hold onto something that cannot last” to “La fille dans les nuages”, a woman facing “the complexity of struggling between who you are and who the world thinks you should be.”You can hear more music by Brittany Green at https://www.brittanyjgreen.com.Brittany Green: PortraitsI.

This week, the world-renowned pianist Angela Hewitt chooses five contrasting aspects of the piano sonatas to discuss with Donald Macleod. In 2020, Hewitt reaches the end of her survey of Beethoven’s piano works with the last recording in her acclaimed series of his 32 piano sonatas. Begun in 2005, her Beethoven odyssey has been taken at a deliberately measured pace, to give ample space and time to reflect on each sonata, each recording being a testament to her deep understanding of Beethoven. Well known for her award-winning interpretation of Bach’s music, she brings that special insight to Beethoven’s profound admiration for the composer, after which she explores the humour Beethoven injects into his music, the composer’s ability to write cantabile or singing style and how Beethoven responded to the advancement of the piano. Composer of the Week is returning to the story of Beethoven’s life and music throughout 2020. Part of Radio 3’s Beethoven Unleashed season marking the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth.

The musical Avant-Garde in general and Avant-Garde jazz, in particular, have either misleading or no connotations at all for most listeners (and non-listeners.) Say the words "free jazz," and most will think of musical anarchy—sonic chaos. And then they'll run for their lives. But when you consider the most prominent practitioners of so-called "free jazz"—the likes of John Coltrane (late period), Ornette Coleman, and Cecil Taylor—one thing should be clear: these are great musicians. So before you run, at least consider why they might be doing what they do, and what they're really doing. And also consider some of your favorite mainstream music may be imbued with musical ideas brought into the world by the so-called Avant-Gardists. The Choice By definition, there is not much in common in the music of artists like John Cage, John Coltrane, Edgar Varese, and Sun Ra. They are, after all, musical outliers: they don't hang out in the same clubs together. But all of them do have one thing in common: they made a choice, somewhere along the line, to create their own musical languages. Making such a choice can, of course, be artistically and personally dangerous, leading to ostracization within the artistic community, derision by fans, and diminished employment opportunities. So why do some do it, where others are satisfied to work solely within the "accepted" musical frameworks, seemingly passed on down for generations? Here's the thing: what we think of as the "accepted" frameworks are almost always languages created by some bold musical soul in the past. Now, I will be the first to admit that we will probably never walk around humming Cecil Taylor or Schoenberg tunes. This music is too extreme in its willingness to push boundaries to become part of the popular music culture in its own right. Seeping Into the Mainstream But these extremes of musical expression, if they are any good, do enter the musical lexicon, even if we're not consciously aware of them doing so. They have a way of filtering down into more mainstream forms, enriching them with surprising turns and details. Listen to the experimental elements in later albums by the Beatles, like Sergeant Pepper's, then go check out modern "classical" composers like Edgar Varése or Karlheinz Stockhausen. The Beatles did. Or, as a more recent example, check out Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly. Then check out late Coltrane,or Ornette Coleman. And movie music? Psychologically challenging scenes would be nowhere without Arnold Schoenberg's serialism. To be sure, Schoenberg created his twelve-tone system for reasons that had nothing to do with Hollywood (though ironically, he ended up living there) but the point is that once these new musical languages are let loose into the world, they find many "uses" beyond the composer's original intention. They simply add to to the ever-growing musical palette. So before you run away from the Avant Garde, seriously consider what it has given us. Artists Mentioned in this Podcast: Cecil Taylor: Conquistador certainly gets right down to it. Cecil's pianistic language is so distinctive as to be recognizable in about 3 seconds. If you're looking for traditional song structures, tunes, recognizable chord changes, etc., you've come to exactly the wrong place. But, try to get through it. There is a structure there, just not one you're used to. And, more importantly, it's simply beautiful music by an oft-maligned genius. Late Beethoven: I mentioned the Great Fugue(Grösse Fugue) in the podcast. It is really a strange and difficult piece of music. Fugues, in general, are intellectually challenging, and this is what's known as a double fugue (two themes interacting.) Also, check out Hammerklavier. The first movement is particularly challenging; the 2nd highlights an interesting trait in late Beethoven wherein he seems to be hinting at a swing (jazz) rhythm. What's up with that? Late Coltrane: Interstellar Space, is one of the last things John Coltrane recorded. It' a suite with just him and drummer, Rashied Ali. To say the least, it's relentless and challenging. But even as Coltrane was always pushing boundaries, there is always something of his lyrical side here. Carlo Gesualdo: The madrigal, Moro lasso al mioduolo, is so strange, and harmonically ahead of its time that people probably thought the composer was crazy. And he probably was. Edgar Varése: Perhaps Poem Eletronique sounds like so much noise and effects to our ears—sound design in modern terms, and pretentious sound design at that. But while it may not be something you put on to chill (or sing along with) it does prove my point about sounds of the Avant-Garde being incorporated into the mainstream. So you can easily hear elements of this being incorporated into a "chill vibe" if not being a very chilly vibe itself. I don't' know if that's good or bad. It just is.

In Ep. 18a, Beethoven pt. 10 "The Candle in the Wind", first part of our massive grand finale(!) we start Beethoven on the last leg of his life. As a new father, and aging man with ill health, life would become more and more difficult for our great composer. His compositional life would prove more cumbersome as well, as massive new works that took a considerable amount of time to complete were now at the forefront of his mind: the "Hammerklavier" Sonata, the Missa Solemnis, the Diabelli Variations, and of course the Ninth Symphony in D minor. ---------------- For all things GCP Please rate, review, and subscribe on iTunes!

Piers Adams celebrates CPE Bach's 300th anniversary year with a visit to the city of Hamburg, where the 54-year-old Emanuel Bach began a new career as music director to the city's churches. Dutch keyboard player Pieter Jan Belder samples the vast collection of fortepianos and clavichords at the Museum of Decorative Arts, and there is a visit to the crypt of the Michaeliskirche where Emanuel Bach is buried. CPE Bach's three decades in Hamburg were the happiest and most productive of his career. He arrived there following many frustrating years at the Berlin court of Frederick the Great, who, he felt, never appreciated his talents. Emanuel took over the job previously occupied by his godfather Telemann in 1768, looking after the music of Hamburg's five main churches. He also found time to launch a series of subscription concerts, as well as leading a lively social life, as the English music historian Charles Burney noted when he paid him a visit. According to Burney, the best of CPE Bach's music is to be found in his keyboard works, and Pieter Jan Belder plays pieces written both for the new Hammerklavier, and for Emanuel's favourite instrument, the clavichord. Hamburg loved CPE Bach: one obituary praised his style as being so much superior to the 'kling-klang' of his contemporaries.
