William Christie, the founder - and guiding spirit for the past 45 years – of Les Arts Florissants, celebrates his 80th birthday on December 19.  Gramophone's James Jolly went to visit him at home in Paris to talk about his long career and its colossal impact of the rediscovery of the music of his adopted homeland. Since leaving the USA in the early 1970s and settling in France, Christie has been a major figure both in concert and on record (with a clutch of Gramophone Awards to his name), focusing on music of the 17th and 18th centuries. Their conversation ranged widely taking in memories of the harpsichordist Ralph Kirkpatrick, the countertenor Alfred Deller, the founder of Harmonia Mundi Bernard Coutaz, and many others. Musical excerpts are from from his Harmonia Mundi catalogue, including his latest release 'Bill and Friends' which finds him performing with a host of young musicians.

SynopsisOn today's date in 2000, King's Chapel in Boston presented a festival of music by the early American composer William Billings, honoring the 200th anniversary of his death in 1800.  As the Chapel's records of 1786 stated, Billings taught singing “to such persons of both sexes as incline to sing psalm-tunes.” They must have liked him, because in 1790, when Billings was in financial trouble, the Chapel held a benefit concert for him.When Billings was born in 1746, America was still a British colony. The last record we have of him as a composer dates from 1799, when he wrote music for a memorial concert for George Washington, the first president of the United States, who had died in December of that year.Today, Billings is regarded as America's first truly original composer. His contemporaries agreed. The Reverend William Bentley of Salem was moved to write in his diary: “Many who have imitated him have excelled him, but none had better original powers … he was a singular man, short of one leg, with one eye, and with an uncommon negligence of person. Still, he spake and sung and thought as a man above common abilities.”Music Played in Today's ProgramWilliam Billings (1746-1800): Emmaus and Shiloh; His Majestie's Clerkes; Paul Hillier, conductor; Harmonia Mundi 90.7048

SynopsisWe're cranking up the Datebook time machine today to take you back to a charity concert that took place in Hamburg on today's date in 1786. The concert was organized and conducted by 72-year-old composer Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, who had been producing new sacred music in Hamburg for many years.But instead of new works, for the charity concert C.P.E. Bach programmed some music that in 1786 was almost 40 years old: he opened with the Credo from his father J.S. Bach's Mass in B minor, followed by two excerpts from Handel's Messiah, namely the Hallelujah Chorus and I Know that My Redeemer Liveth, both sung in German, and then his own setting of the Latin Magnificat, a work he had composed back in 1749 when his father was still alive.C.P.E. Bach's Magnificat is not heard as often as J.S. Bach's more famous setting, which is a shame, since, like his father's Magnificat, C.P.E.'s is a festive, exciting piece of sacred music with trumpets and drums and tuneful vocal solos, along with great choral writing — and we suspect papa J.S. Bach would have nodded with approval that his son's version concluded with a well-constructed choral fugue.Music Played in Today's ProgramC.P.E.

SynopsisIn 1724, Feb. 20 fell on a Sunday, and at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe, or, in English, Jesus Gathered the 12 to Himself, a church cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach, was performed as part of the Sunday service.Meanwhile, on Feb. 20 in London that same year, audiences at the King's Theater in the Haymarket heard the premiere of Giulio Cesare in Egitto or, Julius Caesar in Egypt, a new Italian opera by George Frideric Handel.How interesting to find Bach in church and Handel in the theater, on the same date — but not, as it turns out, on the same day.In 1724, Bach's Germany kept track of time under the Gregorian calendar, but in Handel's England, the older Julian calendar was still used, and so Handel's calendar would say Feb. 20 was a Thursday, while Bach's would say was it was a Sunday. It wasn't until 1752 that England adopted the same calendar that Germany used — the Gregorian one we still use today.In the 18th century, apparently, you didn't need Albert Einstein to remind you that time is a very relative concept!Music Played in Today's ProgramJ.S.

SynopsisOn today's date in 1693, a new opera based on an old legend had its premiere performance at the Académie de la Musique in Paris. The new opera was by French Baroque composer Marc-Antoine Charpentier. The old legend was that of Medea, the sorceress who murdered her children to avenge her abandonment by their father, the Greek hero Jason.Charpentier's Médée (to give his opera its French title) was well received by its first audiences. The most celebrated French soprano of her day sang the title role, but one contemporary critic, impressed by Charpentier's achievement, wrote, “The emotions are so vivid, that even if the role were only spoken, the opera would not fail to make a great impression.”In the three centuries following Charpentier's opera, many other musicians have taken up the Medea legend as well. In 1980, American composer Jacob Druckman took themes from three famous Medea operas and worked these into a three-movement orchestral suite, Prisms, with Charpentier's version of Medea having pride of place and quoted in the first movement of Druckman's score.Music Played in Today's ProgramMarc-Antoine Charpentier (1635 – 1704) Médée; Les Arts Florissants; William Christie, cond.

SynopsisOn today's date in 1979, a new play by Peter Schaffer titled Amadeus opened at the National Theatre in London.Schaffer's play tells the story of Mozart's final years in Vienna, including some posthumous gossip that it was the petty jealousy and back-stabbing intrigue of Mozart's Italian contemporary Antonio Salieri that hastened Wolfgang's untimely demise. There was even a Romantic legend that Salieri had actually poisoned Mozart, a legend Shaffer gave a psychological spin.Music historians were quick to attack Shaffer's play as wildly inaccurate and downright unfair to poor old Salieri, who, they said, was not all that bad a fellow. Accurate or not, Schaffer's play was a big hit, and five years later was made into a wildly successful film. That movie version of Amadeus prompted millions of new classical music fans to snap up any recordings of Mozart's Requiem they could find.And what about the music historians? They couldn't even find comfort in the old public relations adage, “There's no such thing as bad press as long as they spell your name right!” They felt even the movie's title was bogus. Mozart never signed his middle name “Amadeus,” preferring the French version, “Amadé.”Music Played in Today's ProgramWolfgang Mozart (1756 – 1791) Requiem; La Chapelle Royale and Orchestre des Champs Elysees; Philippe Herreweghe, cond.

Synopsis On today's date in 1727, the opera season in London ended early when rival Italian prima donnas, Francesca Cuzzoni and Faustina Bordoni, came to blows on stage during a performance of an opera by Bononcini. Londoners were shocked, but not surprised. Trouble had been brewing between the two, egged on by partisan behavior from their rabid English fans, who (depending on their preference) greeted them with either extravagant applause and bravos, or catcalls, hissing, and, as one contemporary put it, “other great indecencies.” It was all terrific box-office, as Handel must have realized and so worked their rivalry into HIS opera Alessandro, in which the hero finds it hard to decide between the attractions of the dueling divas. Handel prudently gave exactly the same number of solos to each soprano. Even so, according to Handel's first biographer, years earlier he had threatened to toss Cuzzoni out the window when, during a rehearsal she refused point blank to sing one of his arias. Madam, Handel is quoted as roaring as he dragged her towards the window, “I know you are a veritable devil, but I would have you know that I am Beelzebub, the KING of all the devils!” Music Played in Today's Program George Frederic Handel (1685 - 1759) aria, fr Alessandro Lisa Saffer, soprano; Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra; Nicholas McGegan, 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 In 1723, the Leipzig Town Council appointed Johann Sebastian Bach as the new Kantor of St. Thomas Church. Despite what Bach might have felt about the workload, he apparently did like the Church: it was there that his family worshipped and 12 of his 20 children were baptized. But Bach was responsible for music at TWO Leipzig churches: St. Thomas and St. Nikolaus Church. In Bach's day, St. Thomas was regarded as the lesser of the two, with St. Nikolaus Church the official venue for most important occasions, including the premiere performances of many of Bach's sacred works. For example, it was at St. Nikolaus Church on today's date in 1724 that Bach's “Passion According to Saint John” was premiered. Bach apparently intended his new Passion to be performed at St. Thomas Church, ignoring the Council's specific request for the other venue, and changed his plans ONLY after the Council authorized more space for performers in the choir loft at St. Nikolaus—and after they repaired that church's harpsichord. Chalk up one victory for the cagey cantor! Alas, Bach's tussles with the Council didn't end there. While posterity regards Bach's years in Leipzig as one of the most glorious epochs in music history, it's quite likely that both Bach AND his employers might have recalled it as one long battle of wills over matters large and small.
