Die Namensliste der Chefdirigenten, die das BRSO über die Jahre lenkten und begleiteten, liest sich imposant: Eugen Jochum, Rafael Kubelík, Sir Colin Davis, Lorin Maazel, Mariss Jansons und heute Sir Simon Rattle. In der Aufzählung fehlt jedoch ein Mann, der das nicht wurde, was er werden sollte. Markus Vanhoefer erinnert an ein tragisches Kapitel der Orchestergeschichte.
SynopsisIn St. Petersburg on today's date in 1897, the First Symphony of Sergei Rachmaninoff had its disastrous premiere.Now, there are bad reviews and then there are really bad reviews. When Rachmaninoff opened up a newspaper the next day he read, “If there were conservatory in hell, and if one of its students were instructed to write a symphony based on the seven plagues of Egypt, and if he were to compose a symphony like Rachmaninoff's, he would have fulfilled his task brilliantly and delighted the inmates of hell.”Ouch!What must have really hurt was that the review was written by a fellow composer, Cesare Cui, and the premiere was conducted — poorly, it seems — by another composer colleague, Alexander Glazunov.The whole affair was so painful that Rachmaninoff needed therapy before he could compose again, and when he left Russia for good in 1917, he left the symphony's manuscript behind, and in the turmoil of the Bolshevik revolution it was lost. However, the original orchestral parts for the 1897 premiere survived. They were rediscovered in 1945, two years after Rachmaninoff's death, and a belated — and this time successful — second performance took place that same year.Music Played in Today's ProgramSergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943): Symphony No. 1; St. Petersburg Philharmonic; Mariss Jansons, cond.

Synopsis“Spaghetti western” is a nickname given to a genre of Italian films from the 1960s, most famously directed by Sergio Leone, and often starring Clint Eastwood as the taciturn, gun-toting anti-hero.Spaghetti Western also is the title of a Concerto for English horn written by American composer Michael Daugherty that received its premiere performance on today's date in 1998 at a Pittsburgh Symphony concert conducted by Mariss Jansons.“Just as Leone's films redefined the Western genre from an Italian perspective,” writes Michael Daugherty, “I redefine the European concerto … within an American context. In my ‘Spaghetti Western,' the English horn soloist is the ‘Man with no Name,' moving through a series of sun-drenched panoramas, barren deserts, and desolate towns of the Wild West, … [one of ] the gun-slinging characters who haunt the landscape.”Daugherty gave Italian titles to his three-movement concerto: “Strade Vuote” (“Empty Streets”), “Assalto all'Oro” (“Gold Rush”) and “Mezzogiorno di Fuoco” (“Noon of Fire”). And since Eastwood was unable to play the English horn for the Pittsburgh Symphony premiere, Harold Smoliar removed the cigar from his parched, suntanned lips, adjusted his poncho and took up his English horn for the performance.Music Played in Today's ProgramMichael Daugherty (b. 1954) Spaghetti Western Harold Smoliar; University of Michigan Symphony; Kenneth Kiesler, cond.

Have you ever wondered what it is that us conductors are really doing up there? Are we just waving our arms in time to the music? What role does the conductor actually play in a concert? How about a rehearsal? Do we also learn to be train conductors as well? Well, today's episode is about answering those questions! We'll talk about conducting on 3 different levels, including the basic level where we'll talk all about beat patterns, studying, rehearsals, concert programming, and more. We'll also talk about what I like to call the 30,000 feet level, where all of those basic decisions can help translate into musical ideas that inspire the orchestra and move the audience. And finally, we'll head to what the late great conductor Mariss Jansons called the Cosmic level, where true inspiration takes place. This can happen as little as once or twice in a lifetime in a concert, but when it does, there is nothing like it! We'll talk about all this, and more today - join us!
Synopsis On today's date in 2002, Mariss Jansons led the Pittsburg Symphony in the premiere performance of the Second Symphony written by a then 32-year-old American composer named Michael Hersch. Hardly a child prodigy, Michael Hersch was introduced to classical music at age 18 by his brother Jamie, who showed him a videotape of Georg Solti conducting Beethoven's Fifth. That experience shook him. "It scrambled everything.” Hersch recalled. “That's when I knew that I was to be a composer... My whole life started over at that moment." Hersch certainly made up for lost time, exhibiting an uncanny ability to master both the piano and the intricacies of contemporary compositional techniques in less than a decade. His first success as a composer came when his Elegy for Strings won a major prize and was conducted by Marin Alsop at Lincoln Center in New York in 1997. Since then, his works have been commissioned and performed by many other leading orchestras and performers. Hersch's Symphony No. 2 has no stated program, but it was composed shortly after the events of September 11, 2001, and knowing that, it's hard to disassociate the score's violent opening and subsequent elegiac mood from that tragic moment in American history.

A casual discussion about Shostakovich by two Bruckner enthusiasts (Jason and Sébastien). A graduate from the Royal Conservatory of Liège in Belgium (1st prize organ, 1st prize harmony, 1st prize history of music, 1st prize musical analysis); Sébastien Letocart is a self-taught composer, who has built his musical equally by studying ancient music (i.e. Josquin Desprez, William Byrd, Tomas Luis Vitoria, Roland de Lassus, Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Claudio Monteverdi, Dietrich Buxtehude, Johann Sebastian Bach), practicing it (organ, harpsichord and singing) as well as analyzing the great scores of the Classical Symphony (Haydn, Mozart), the Romantic (Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, Dvořák, Bruckner), the Post-romantic (Debussy, Roussel, R.Strauss, Mahler, Sibelius, Nielsen) and the symphonic repertoire of the first half of the 20th century (Bartók, Hindemith, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Bax, Vaughan Williams, Holst, Walton, Honegger, Martinu, Varèse). He is also highly interested in the music of the last sixty years, his preferences are going from György Ligeti, Iannis Xenakis or Esa-Pekka Salonen to Einar Englund, Aulis Sallinen, Emil Tabakov, Kalevi Aho, Vagn Holmboe, John Adams, Sir Malcolm Arnold or Sir Andrzej Panufnik. He is also greatly attracted by chamber music, especially by the refined writing that the string quartet demands and by Béla Bartók's six String Quartets which are the nec plus ultra of the genre.

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.

Stāsta ērģelnieks Aivars Kalējs Runa ir (nevis iet, protams, no krievu речь идёт) par vārdu projekts. Ja okupācijas laikā mēs ar to sapratām projektēšanu un darbību arhitektūras birojā, gatavojot mājām plānus, tad tagad, ja ir runa par kādu koncertu vai izrādi, dienu dienā tiek runāts par projektu nevis uzvedumu. Tas, protams, ir arī pateicoties Kultūrkapitāla fondam, taču viņiem tā ir forma un nepieciešamība, lai nebūtu dažādi apzīmējumi. Mūzikā un arī mākslā taču var pateikt iecere vai radoša iecere, radošs nodoms, kompozīcija, skaņdarbs, glezna - ir ļoti daudz iespēju. Bet nē! Visur ir projekts, jo tas skan nozīmīgāk, svarīgāk - ir taču vesels projekts, tur kaut kas būs! Otrs vārds kolektīvs. Mēs joprojām, it īpaši kultūras cilvēki, neesam beiguši mūsu apziņā 1946. gada novembrī Dobeles kolhozā "Nākotne" uzsākto kolektivizāciju. Kolektivizācija mūsu apziņā turpinās. Man tas griež ausīs kā ar zāģi, bet mēs ātri pie visa kā pierodam. Nu var taču pateikt koris, grupa, ansamblis, vienība. Un ir pat tā: es klausos "Klasiku", mūziķi sākumā ļoti jauki pasaka orķestris, ja runa ir par orķestri, taču nē!- pēc tam jau seko kolektīvs. Un bez šī kolektīva neiztiek, viņš nāk iekšā ar joni… Tas īsti nav arī krievu valodas vārds, lai gan, protams, visur uzsverot kopību un sociālistisko celtniecību, lietoja koļekķiv. Nu padomāsim, vai tas mums ir vajadzīgs! Tālāk. Valoda ir piebārstīta ar vārdiem godīgi sakot, īstenībā (nu tas vēl varētu būt), patiesībā jeb patiesību sakot. Kā tas jāsaprot? Vai tas pārējais viss nav godīgi? Vai tas pārējais nav patiesībā? Vai tas neatbilst īstenībai? Arī padomāsim, vai tas ir vajadzīgs! Tālāk. Atvadoties telefonsarunā vai vienkārši uz ielas satiekoties, saka: Nu tad, davai! Par to, starp citu, ļoti pārdzīvo mūsu jaukais tenors Ingus Pētersons, ka inteliģenti vai šķietami inteliģenti cilvēki lieto to savā valodā, kas ir tipiski tieši šķiroties. Tad vēl ir vārds baudījums - baudīt koncertu, baudīt izrādi… Es domāju - vai mēs tagad esam kļuvuši, tā kā savā laikā romieši, par hedonisku sabiedrību, nepārtrauktu dzīves un mūzikas baudītāju? Mariss Jansons teica pārdzīvot, bet, ja nu mums ne līdz Marisa Jansona līmenim mūziku klausoties, tad teiksim klausīties. Var arī teikt - tas varbūt atkal skan vecmodīgi, veclaicīgi - patikšana. Bet baudīt - tas attiecas uz cilvēka fizioloģiju; baudīt ēdienu, gurmāniem sevišķi tas raksturīgi, gardēžiem. Padomāsim, vai tas mums ir vajadzīgs! Protams, varētu vēl daudz ko runāt par kā, kad un ka lietošanu un jaukšanu, par to jau ir runājuši valodnieki – tas ir tik dziļi iesēdies, ka, liekas, viņu neizsēdināt laukā. Un arī par galotnēm. Saka liekās, bet ir taču liekas. Tajā pašā laikā –ināt, -īties ir ar garo izskaņu. Bet cilvēkiem, kad viņiem jākoncentrējas uz saturu, ir grūti reizē domāt par pareizu runu. Bet tomēr piedomāsim vismaz ikdienā pie tā!
Tussen de paukenisten was de beste plek om te zitten toen hij op vijfjarige leeftijd naar de repetities van zijn vader kwam kijken. Het leidde ertoe dat Marc, toen hij zelf een instrument mocht kiezen, slagwerk ging studeren. In deze aflevering vertelt hij hoe een dvd met Ein Heldenleben van Richard Strauss onder leiding van Mariss Jansons ervoor zorgde dat hij het zonnige Spanje verruilde voor Amsterdam en hoe ‘mindblowing' het was om jaren later zelf onder leiding van de vooraanstaande dirigent te mogen spelen.

French born pianist Jean Yves Thibaudet has performed in Pittsburgh in at least three visits with Mariss Jansons, Charles Dutoit and Marek Janowsky. He was scheduled for a return when the pandemic hit but promises to back soon. Fom his home in LA, he spoke with Jim Cunningham about his new cd Carte Blanche with 24 tracks of very personal favorites, arrangements, encores, music from the film score for Pride and Prejudice, Pierre Sancan, Morton Gould, Chopin, Couperin. He's done 50 cds for Decca, so the company said you've got Carte Blanche to record what you like and he went to work just this past May at the Colburn School in Los Angeles. Renee Fleming interviewed Jean Yves for the notes and he discusses their work together on a PBS special broadcast just this past New Year's Eve 2020. Jean Yves has a special memory of playing an encore for Mariss Jansons and he had to include something for his Mom on the play list.
Composer Jerod Tate and conductor Devin Patrick Hughes discuss Chickasaw musical culture, Jerod's influences and how composers are plugged into ethnicity and national identity, along with growing up with Stravinsky, Bartok, Barber, and Liszt.

Synopsis When asked to name some important musical works associated with World War II, music lovers are apt to think of the sonatas and symphonies Prokofiev and Shostakovich wrote during those years. But three symphonies by the Swiss composer Arthur Honegger form another very compelling war triptych. Honegger spent the war years in occupied France, and his Symphony No. 2, which premiered in 1942, might be considered a symphony of the grim wartime resistance. It is scored for strings alone, but at the very end includes an optional trumpet solo, a dramatic gesture that seems an emotional call to action. Honegger's Symphony No. 3, which premiered on August 17, 1946, is titled “A Liturgical Symphony,” with the titles of each of its movements taken from the Latin Mass for the Dead. Considering the great loss of life on all sides of the conflict just ended, this work, too, packs an emotional wallop. And to round out the triptych, Honegger's Symphony No. 4, from 1947, is subtitled “The Delights of Basel.” This music captures the elusive and bittersweet mood of a Europe tentatively groping its way back to normal life, closing with a decidedly wistful evocation of carnival time in the Swiss city of Basel.

The Principal Flute of the New York Philharmonic, Robert Langevin, served as Principal in Pittsburgh for eight years until he was asked to join New York by Kurt Mazur. He discusses his new cd on the Bridge label "La Belle Epoque" with the Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun and Syrinx, Faure Fantaisie and Morceau, Enesco Cantabile and presto, Mouquet Flute de Pan, Widor Suite and Gaubert Nocturne, Fantaisie and Madrigal with pianist Margaret Kampmeier. Robert remembers his years with Lorin Maazel and Mariss Jansons in Pittsburgh and New York, talks about his love of summers at Chautauqua, New York, recordings of Mozart and Nielsen and whether he has bribed the director of Live From Lincoln Center to feature his solos on the PBS New Year's Eve broadcasts. The tradition of French flute playing is explored in detail in this conversation with Jim Cunningham.

Stāsta pavārmākslas burvis Mārtiņš Rītiņš 1994. gadā slavenais blūza maestro - BB Kings bija restorāna "Vincents" atklāšanā. Mēs viņam uzdāvinājam Suitu sievu priekšnesumus, kurus viņš baudīja Cutty Sark viskija pavadījumā. Toreiz tādu viskiju sameklēt Latvijā arī bija māksla... "Vincentā" ēdināju slaveno čellistu Mstislavu Rostropoviču. Daudzi viņu uzskata par 20. gadsimta visizcilāko čellistu. Es nekad neaizmirsīšu to neatkārtojamo auru, kas toreiz valdīja "Vincentā". Pusdienu nagla bija fazāns no Latvijas laukiem. Monserata Kavaljē, kuru dēvē par La Superba, "Vincentā" ir ēdusi 5 reizes. Toreiz viņa koncertēja Latvijas Nacionālajā operā un Doma baznīcā. Kad Monserata Kavaljē dziedādama gāja pa Doma baznīcas galveno eju, ieraudzīja mani un piemiedza ar aci. Mums bija kaut kas kopīgs, abi esam veģetārieši. Speciālisti apgalvo, ka pateicoties veģetāram ēdienam, viņai bija tik izcila balss. Hosē Karerass bija pirmais viesis Rīgā, kuru cienājām ar suši. Tajā laikā "Vincents" bija vienīgais, kas gatavoja šo japāņu delikatesi, kā arī Japānas vagjū gaļu. Elīnai Garančai man bija tas gods gatavot maltīti ne tikai Rīgā, bet arī Karaliskajā Concertgebouw Amsterdamā, kur 2004. gadā Mariss Jansons kļuva par orķestra virsdiriģentu. Mariss Jansons arī man bija tuvs draugs un vairākkārt bijis viesis pie manis klātajiem galdiem. Sena draudzība mūs saista ar Inesi Galanti. Man bija tas gods dziedāt uz tās pašas skatuves Kanādas Dziesmu svētkos 90. gadu sākumā, uz kuras dziedājusi arī Inese Galante. Viņa ir regulārs viesis "Vincentā". Inese sagādāja man lielu pārsteigumu, uzstājoties manā 70. dzimšanas dienas ballītē "Hanzas Peronā". Vēl vienai manai draudzenei - Kristīnei Opolais - labi garšo manis gatavotais Fēru salu lasis. Pēdējo reizi pēc uzstāšanās Latvijas Nacionālajā operā "Vincentā" rīkoju svinīgās vakariņas viņai un Andrejam Žagaram. Kādu laiku esmu sekojis Andrim Nelsonam viņa koncerturnejās. Neaizmirstams koncerts bija Essenē 2016. gadā, kur Andris diriģēja Bostonas simfonisko orķestri ar Kristīni Opolais kā solisti. Pēc koncerta viņu ģērbtuvē baudījām steiku un šokolādes kūku. Eltonu Džonu atceros kā melnā kaviāra baudītāju pie galda, kas bagātīgi rotāts ar baltiem ziediem. Depeche Mode Rīgā uzstājās trīs reizes. Viņu prasība bija - "Mārtiņš un kaviārs ar olām un bliņām". Un noteikti kartupeļi cepti zoss taukos... Džo Kokers "Vincentā" bijis divas reizes, un abās obligāts bija steiks, tomāti un šokolāde. Pārsteidzu viņu ar Amedei šokolādes Nemesi. Pie mums "Vincentā" to vēl joprojām var baudīt katru dienu. Savu pirmo disku "Vincentā" prezentēja "Prāta vētra". Problēma bija sarūmēt 150 meitenes... Puiši ar savām ģimenēm un es ar savu komandu vienu gadu "Vincentā" svinējām Ziemassvētkus. Atceros Renāra dzimšanas dienu 1. septembrī Skonto stadionā. Uznesu uz skatuves izcilu torti... Pēc tam visi dziedājām un dejojām. Pēc tam intervījā Renārs stāstīja, ka Vairas Vīķes-Freibergas un mans apsveikums bijis kā ķirsītis dzimšanas dienas svinībām...

Synopsis On today’s date in 1825, the Italian composer Antonio Salieri breathed his last in Vienna. Gossip circulated that in his final dementia, Salieri blabbed something about poisoning Mozart. Whether he meant it figuratively or literally, or even said anything of the sort, didn’t seem to matter and the gossip became a Romantic legend. Modern food detectives suggested that if Mozart WAS poisoned, an undercooked pork chop might be to blame… In one of his last letters to his wife, Mozart mentions his anticipation of feasting on a fat chop his cook had secured for his dinner! Twenty-five years after Salieri’s death, on today’s date in 1850, the Austro-Hungarian conductor Anton Seidl was born in Budapest. Seidl became a famous conductor of both the Metropolitan Opera and New York Philharmonic. It was Seidl who conducted the premiere of Dvorak’s “New World” Symphony. In 1898, at the age of just 47, Seidl died suddenly, apparently from ptomaine poisoning. Perhaps it was the shad roe he ate at home, or that sausage from Fleischmann’s restaurant? An autopsy revealed serious gallstone and liver ailments, so maybe Seidl’s last meal, whatever it might have been, was as innocent of blame as poor old Salieri.

Synopsis “How do you get to Carnegie Hall?” Well, the usual reply is, “By practicing!” But back in 1891, Peter Tchaikovsky would have probably answered, “by ship”–since he had, in fact, sailed from Europe to conduct several of his pieces at the hall’s gala opening concerts. The first concert in Carnegie Hall, or as they called it back then, “The Music Hall,” occurred on today’s date in 1891, and included a performance of Tchaikovsky’s “Coronation March,” conducted by the composer. The review in the New York Herald offered these comments: “Tchaikovsky’s March... is simple, strong and sober, but not surprisingly original. The leading theme recalls the Hallelujah chorus, and the treatment of the first part is Handelian… Of the deep passion, the complexity and poetry which mark other works of Tchaikovsky, there is no sign in this march.” Oh well, in the days that followed, Tchaikovsky would conduct other works of “complexity and poetry,” including his First Piano Concerto. Tchaikovsky kept a travel diary and recorded these impressions of New York: "It is a huge city, not beautiful, but very original. In Chicago, I’m told, they have gone even further–one of the houses there has 21 floors!"

Synopsis Few of us today really know–or care–very much about the War of Austrian Succession, a conflict that troubled Europe in the 18th century. For music lovers, it’s enough to know that to celebrate the end of that war, George Frideric Handel was commissioned to compose music for a fireworks concert in London’s Green Park, an event that took place on today’s date in the year 1749. Back then there were no such things as microphones and loudspeakers, so Handel’s score called for a huge military band of 24 oboes, 9 horns, 9 trumpets, 3 sets of timpani, 12 bassoons, 2 contrabassoons—and strings. When King George II was told about it, he balked a little at the expense: “Well, at least I hope there won’t be any fiddles,” he commented, and so Handel was informed the strings were definitely off. A public rehearsal was held at the Vauxhall Gardens and a London newspaper reported that 100 musicians performed for an audience of more than 12,000, causing a 3-hour traffic jam of carriages and pedestrians on London Bridge.
