Synopsis One of the last chamber works of the American composer Aaron Copland received its first performance on today's date in 1971 in Philadelphia as a benefit for that city's Settlement Music School. Copland himself was present for the premiere of his “Duo” for flute and piano. The work was commissioned by friends and students of the late William Kincaid, for many years the principal flutist of the Philadelphia Orchestra. By 1971, thorny, complex, and atonal music was the fashion in both Europe and America. Copland, for his part, had composed some challenging orchestral works along these lines as well. His “Duo,” however was unashamedly lyrical. As Copland put it: “What can you do with a flute in an extended form that would NOT emphasize its songful nature? Lyricism seems to be built into the flute. Some expressed surprise at the tonal nature of my Duo, considering that my recent works had been in a more severe idiom.” Copland needn't have worried. As music critic Michael Steinberg put it, reviewing its first performance in Boston: “Copland's Duo is a lightweight work of a masterful craftsman. It is going to give pleasure to flutists and their audiences for a long time.” Music Played in Today's Program Aaron Copland (1900 – 1990) — Duo (Jennifer Stinton, flute; Malcolm Martineau, piano) Collins 1385

Daniel Weissmann, altiste Directeur de l'Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège, Daniel Weissmann est aussi altiste. Après un premier opus paru chez Fuga Libera (2018) et consacré principalement au répertoire germanique, il poursuit pour le même label son exploration des pièces de chambre pour alto avec un nouvel enregistrement paru le 9 octobre et réalisé avec la complicité du pianiste Peter Petrov. (OPRL) -- Christiane Karg, soprano Avec ce premier récital soliste pour harmonia mundi, Christiane Karg et son fidèle partenaire Malcolm Martineau nous proposent une incursion dans ce que la musique de Mahler a de plus intime : les chants du Knaben Wunderhorn nous plongent au cœur du processus créateur du compositeur, à l'image des lieder de jeunesse ou des plus tardifs Rückert-Lieder. Intime ? Oui, car deux de ces pièces (dont la célèbre Himmlische Leben de la Quatrième Symphonie) sont accompagnées ici par... Mahler lui-même, grâce aux performances des incroyables « rouleaux Welte-Mignon » qui, au tout début du XXe siècle, ont su capter le jeu du compositeur bien mieux que n'importe quel enregistrement de cette période.
