Podcast appearances and mentions of lawrence foster

Malcolm McNab is quite possibly the greatest trumpeter in the world that you've never heard of. I recall a friend of mine back in 2008-09 timeframe putting in Malcolm's CD Exquisite, and being unable to believe what I was hearing. The range, the accuracy, the musicality.My friend said something along the lines of, "This is the guy who played the lead part on Jurassic Park.""Oh," was my reply.Why is it I've never heard of this guy?!One of this life's great injustices is that the musicians on those movies we've grown up with do not get proper credit for their work. The music makes or breaks the movie. Any director or producer will tell you that.The Hollywood scene is not one with which I have any familiarity, so I'll keep further judgment to myself. But suffice it to say I'm grateful to be able to share some of Malcolm's thoughts with y'all listening into the podcast.We began talking about the great Raphael Mendez, including an incredible story from his childhood that very well could have contributed to him being such a kind and generous person on and off the stage.And talking with a great master of his craft, the conversation naturally drifted into pedagogy, as well as some cool stories of Malcolm's interactions with some of the elite Hollywood directors and producers, including Steven Spielberg making a cameo appearance playing clarinet on Jaws.Yes, it's that kind of episode.Enjoy!BTW, I have an extremely limited number of Malcolm's CD's available FOR FREE. Yes, no cost. Malcolm had some of his CD's with him at the conference, and he told me to just give them out to people.So tune in to the very end of the episode to learn how you can get a copy of one of Malcolm's CD's for free (if you can pay for shipping, it's appreciated but not required.)Episode highlights:-The incredible story of Raphael Mendez being conscripted into Pancho Villa's army as a child...04:20-Raphael's firing from a studio gig became the catalyst for his great solo career...08:30-Raphael's story as told in an opera has sadly been lost to posterity...13:36-How Malcolm continues his legacy by passing on his knowledge to others with lessons and camps...21:22-Looking for the "sweet spot" with the tone and pitch...28:52-If you can master the physical side of playing, it naturally has a positive effect on your mental and spiritual wellbeing...32:30-Breaking into the Hollywood music scene and making connections with some of the great filmmakers...45:51-The future of "Camp McNab" in wake of the pandemic's devastating effects...57:38-Suffering in life comes full circle years later...1:05:48-Plus whatever your discerning ears deem worthy of your time and interest...Body + Mind + Spirit = Mastery. Now available is a collection of excerpts from some of the most popular episodes of the Trumpet Dynamics podcast featuring the likes of Chris Coletti, Sergei Nakariakov, Manny Laureano, and more.It's a FREE download available right now on brassmastery.com!About the Guest:Malcolm Boyd McNab was born in Cleveland, Ohio on March 25th 1943. That summer, his family moved out to California where he was raised in the San Gabriel Valley. He began studying the trumpet at the age of nine, with his father Boyd McNab as his first teacher. Later, he studied with Pasadena trumpet teacher Walter Laursen, and performed with the Pasadena Symphony at the age of fourteen while still a student at Mark Keppel High School in Alhambra.In 1958 at the age of 15, Malcolm began playing with the Young Musicians Foundation Debut Orchestra under conductors Dr. Miklos Rosza, Lawrence Foster, Gerhard Samuel and Henry Lewis. He soon became...

- Sposób pisania Enescu zmusza słuchacza do bycia bardzo uważnym, bo jego muzyka jest bardzo kontrapunktyczna. Nie ma także pulsu rytmicznego jak u jego bliskiego przyjaciela Bartóka, dlatego też Bartók jest dużo bardziej popularny - mówił w Dwójce Lawrence Foster. Maestro poprowadził w czwartkowy wieczór Narodową Orkiestrę Symfoniczną Polskiego Radia. Jako solistka wystąpiła niemiecka skrzypaczka Carolin Widmann.

Amerykański dyrygent pochodzenia rumuńskiego Lawrence Foster przez ostatnie cztery sezony kierował Narodową Orkiestrą Symfoniczną Polskiego Radia. Koncertem, który odbył się w Katowicach 23 czerwca, gość Dwójki zwieńczył tę współpracę. Spotkaliśmy się jeszcze podczas prób i odbyliśmy długą rozmowę, w której nie zabrakło podsumowań.

- Tak naprawdę wybrałem "Falstaffa" niedługo po tym, jak objąłem swoje stanowisko w NOSPR. Starałem się patrzeć możliwie jak najdalej w przyszłość i wiedziałem, że chcę zakończyć tę współpracę koncertowym wykonaniem opery - mówił w Dwójce Lawrence Foster, który w piątek (23.06) po raz ostatni poprowadził Narodową Orkiestrę Symfoniczną Polskiego Radia w roli dyrektora artystycznego i I dyrygenta.

Synopsis A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty “Hi-yo, Silver!” Generations of American baby boomers first heard Rossini's “William Tell” Overture as the opening credits of the old Lone Ranger TV western, but we suspect only a few of them ever realized the overture by an Italian composer was written for a French opera about a Swiss archer, which was adapted from a German play by Friedrich Schiller. Like a Facebook relationship, “It's complicated.” Anyway, Rossini's “William Tell” was first heard in Paris on today's date in 1829. Rossini hoped “William Tell” would be considered his masterpiece. Ironically, the complete opera is only rarely staged these days, but the “William Tell” overture became a familiar concert hall showpiece – SO familiar, in fact, as to become something of a musical cliché. The Russian composer Dimitri Shostakovich gave a dark 20th-century spin to Rossini's overly familiar theme, when he quoted the “William Tell” overture in the opening movement of his Symphony No. 15. In the context of Shostakovich's enigmatic final symphony, Rossini's jaunty little theme comes off like a forced smile, and audiences are free to read whatever political subtext they wish into its rather sinister context. Music Played in Today's Program Gioacchino Rossini (1792-1868) –William Tell Overture (Philharmonia Orchestra; Carlo Maria Giulini, cond.) EMI 69042 Dimitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) –Symphony No. 15 in A, Op. 141 (London Philharmonic; Mariss Jansons, cond.)

Bach were both interested in the position - but not in Tunder's daughter; 1778 - Milan's famous Teatro alla Scala (La Scala) opens with a performance of “L'Europa riconosciuta” by Italian opera composer Antonio Salieri, a work written specially for the occasion; The theater took its name from the site previously occupied by the church of Santa Maria della Scala (named after Bernabo Visconti's wife, Beatrice della Scala); This same opera, conducted by Riccardo Muti, was performed on Dec. 7, 2004 at the Gala reopening of La Scala after three years of major renovation; 1779 - Mozart finishes in Salzburg his "Posthorn" Serenade; 1795 - The Paris Conservatory of Music is founded by the National Revolutionary Convention.

- Sądzę, że I Symfonia to niezwykle dojrzały i pomysłowy utwór. Schubert skomponował ją w wieku zaledwie 16 lat, dowodząc niezwykłej muzycznej wyobraźni. Imponujące jest to, jak traktuje formę symfoniczną i jak rozwija poszczególne tematy. Ten utwór nie powinien być postrzegany jako dzieło niedojrzałe, jako uczniowska wprawka. To trudna, ale i radosna muzyka - mówił w Dwójce znakomity dyrygent Lawrence Foster w przerwie koncertu zamykającego ten sezon działalności Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia.

If you asked 100 people where the expression Free Love came from, I doubt you would find more than one person who knows. I surely didn't. I thought it originated back in the 1960s with the flower children. But I was wrong. The term originated in the 1850s in a religious commune in Oneida, New York. Called the Oneida Community by some and the Oneida Experiment by others, it was an experiment with sexual freedom under religious auspices, and quoting scripture for its justification.I'm not sure what sent me looking for this, but I found an article in Touchstone magazine by Frederica Mathewes-Green called The Oneida Experiment: What We Have Discovered About Not-So-Free Love Oneida was founded on the principle of Bible Communism. Founder John Humphrey Noyes insisted that, under his personally-devised philosophy, there were to be no selfish attachments, no hoarding of love. Initially, it sounds very strange. How can you hoard love? And how can love be a selfish attachment when it is the outgoing giving of oneself to another person?According to Ms. Green, Noyes had put sexual freedom at the head of his agenda; he was the inventor of the term, free love. The Yale Divinity School student and sometime Congregationalist minister believed that complex marriage was God’s will, as indicated by the scripture, in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven [Mt 22:30]. Now, you may be way ahead of me on this, but it isn't clear to me how a complex marriage can be like angels who don't marry at all.According to Noyes, The abolition of sexual exclusiveness is involved in the love-relation required between all believers by the express injunction of Christ and the apostles […] The restoration of true relations between the sexes is a matter second in importance only to the reconciliation of man to God. As I read more on John Humphrey Noyes, I knew I had to talk to you about it; but I was torn. what is the story really about? Is it about sex? About love? About utopianism? And then I came to a paragraph by Lawrence Foster in an article titled The Oneida Community Experience and Its Implications for the Present…The Oneida Experiment - Frederica Mathewes-GreenWomen, Family, and Utopia: The Oneida Community Experience and Its Implications for the Present - Lawrence Foster

- Po kilku koncertach, które na przestrzeni lat poprowadziłem z NOSPR, Krzysztof Penderecki uznał, że dobrze byłoby, gdybym związał się z orkiestrą na stałe, jeśli rzecz jasna zespół wyrazi zgodę, bo najważniejsze jest przekonanie samych muzyków - mówił w Dwójce Lawrence Foster, dyrektor artystyczny NOSPR. 

Synopsis On today's date in 2020, the University of Maryland launched PriceFest–an annual festival devoted to the American composer Florence Price. The plan was to stage performances of works in the context of lectures and panels devoted to this long-neglected African-American composer. The Covid outbreak forced the first PriceFest to be an online event only, but that worked so well the 2021 PriceFest arranged for more live-streamed and interactive Zoom events. When Florence Price died at the age of 66 in 1953, she left behind instrumental, orchestra and vocal works that languished unperformed for decades until a revival of interest in music by women composers and composers of color led to a serious second look at her compositions and a rediscovery of their quality and importance. In 2009, a couple renovating an abandoned and dilapidated house in St. Anne, Illinois once owned by Price found a substantial collection of previously unknown Price scores.   As Alex Ross, writing in The New Yorker, commented: "not only did [Florence] Price fail to enter the canon; a large quantity of her music came perilously close to obliteration. That run-down house in St. Anne is a potent symbol of how a country can forget its cultural history.” Music Played in Today's Program Florence Price (1887 - 1953) – Mississippi Suite (Women's Philharmonic; Apo Hsu, cond.)
