Das Antoine Spranger Quartet um den deutsch-französischen Pianisten und Komponisten Antoine Spranger ist ein noch junges internationales Jazzensemble. Zur Band gehören außerdem Ludovic Ernault am Saxophon, Matis Regnault am Kontrabass und Tobias Frohnhöfer am Schlagzeug. Das Quartett verbindet Modern Jazz mit klassischer Musik, wobei die Harmonik stark vom musikalischen Impressionismus beeinflusst ist, sagt Antoine Spranger und verweist auf Claude Debussy und Maurice Ravel. Spranger hat an der Musikhochschule in Mannheim studiert und lässt nun mit seinem Debütalbum „Castle of Ice“ aufhorchen, das beim Bremer Label „Laika Records“ veröffentlicht wurde.

Case Scaglione retrouvera ses musiciens de l'ONDIF vendredi 22 mai à la Cité de la musique à Paris puis le 29 à Vélizy-Villacoublay. Il dirigera des œuvres de Bartok, Brahms et Berio, trois compositeurs qui ont en commun d'avoir été puiser dans le répertoire traditionnel pour nourrir leur musique, à travers des démarches différentes. Ce programme s'ouvrira avec les Folk Songs du compositeur italien chantées par Iva Bittova. Un cycle fascinant qui réunit des chants traditionnels américains, français, italiens et même azéris, harmonisés, orchestrés et modernisés par Berio. Ce cycle figure justement au programme du nouvel enregistrement de Case Scaglione avec ses musiciens, sorti chez NoMadMusic. Le chef américain nous éclairera ce soir sur le programme de cet album qui réunit également des pages d'inspirations espagnoles, particulièrement voluptueuse et chatoyantes, de Maurice Ravel.

C'est l'un des projets les plus originaux imaginés pour les célébrations du 150ème anniversaire de Ravel en 2025 ! Léo Warynski et les chanteurs de l'ensemble Les Métaboles ont donné un programme entier de transcriptions pour chœur A cappella d'œuvres du compositeur français, incluant le célèbre Boléro. Un programme qui avait fait l'objet d'un grand concert à la Philharmonie de Paris l'année dernière et que nous restitue au disque le label b.records. Léo Warynski nous racontera ce soir la naissance de ce projet et tout le travail réalisé par les chanteurs pour s'approprier l'œuvre orchestrale ou pianistique de Ravel. Ils seront en concert mercredi 15 avril à l'Auditorium du Louvre dans un nouveau programme conçu en lien avec l'exposition « Michel Ange / Rodin », incluant une transcription originale du Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune de Debussy.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Songforms of conventional and highly unconventional sorts tonight, taking in folk traditions from around the world, jazz, the outer limits of metal and more, plus strange twistings of clubforms, impressionist composition of the early 20th century, field recordings and more… LISTEN AGAIN, unconventionally. Stream on demand from fbi.radio, podcast right here. Wendy Eisenberg – Take A Number [Joyful Noise/Bandcamp] Wendy Eisenberg – Curious Bird [Joyful Noise/Bandcamp] We’ve heard from brilliant guitarist, sometime banjoist, songwriter, improviser & composer Wendy Eisenberg in many contexts in the last couple of years: there’s the amazing postpunk/art-rock trio Editrix, Bill Orcutt’s Guitar Quartet, their avant-garde songwriting collaboration with Caroline Davis, and most recently their appearance on their now-partner Mari More Eaze Rubio’s brilliant solo album sentence structure in the country. But the highlight for me remains Eisenberg’s breathtaking final track, “In The Pines”, from their 2024 album Viewfinder. So for all their jazz guitar chops and restless experimentation, I’m already primed to love Eisenberg’s most pure songwriting on this album. There’s definitely a statement in self-titling a mid-career album, and Wendy Eisenberg presents as a straightforward album of songwriterly storytelling, deeply grounded in their newfound love with Mari Rubio. There’s definitely more than a little country in these songs, as well as folk-revivalist styles from Britain, Appalachia etc, but whatever genre, Wendy’s particular melodic sensibility comes through. Supporting this, however, are the utterly essential, sumptuous string arrangements from Mari Rubio, who also co-produced the album with Eisenberg and added pedal steel and synths. With longtime bandmates Trevor Dunn on bass (known for Mr Bungle, Secret Chiefs 3, many John Zorn-related lineups etc) and Ryan Sawyer on drums (of too many collaborations including a time in At The Drive-In and long-ago UFog faves Stars Like Fleas), there’s a homely feel to these songs, songs which contemplate identity, life’s trajectory, past trauma and coming into a hard-won happiness. Margareth Kammerer – Gift [Ftarri/Bandcamp] Margareth Kammerer – Amor [Ftarri/Bandcamp] Weirdly, when I did my DJ set for Art After Hours/Liquid Architecture/Sydney Biennale in March (stream it here) I decided to play a track by Berlin-based Italian singer & composer Margareth Kammerer, and only a day or two later I discovered that she’d just released a new album, The Garden. I’ve been a fan of hers since, I would say, the mid 2000s, when she released the extraordinary album To Be an Animal of Real Flesh, full of odd, experimental songs. Following a few years later came two wonderful, mysterious albums with The Magic I.D., a quartet with Christof Kurzmann on electronics and vocals next to her own guitar & vocals, and the two clarinettists, Kai Fagaschinski & Michael Thieke, who also play bewitching, alien music as The International Nothing. So it’s reasonable to say she’s been deconstructing and re-examining songform for some decades by now. Released by Japanese label Ftarri (also a tiny experimental music venue & store in Tokyo), The Garden is of a piece with her earlier albums – the last of which came out a mere 12 years ago… Her oddly beautiful songs are supported by many important fellow travellers including our own Chris Abrahams of The Necks etc, double-bassist/electronicist Werner Dafeldecker, experimental musician Valerio Tricoli and experimental cellist Bo Wiget. I remain in awe. Espen Reinertsen – Til noens dype muskelvev [SusannaSonata/Bandcamp] Espen Reinertsen – Skal jeg følge deg til havet [SusannaSonata/Bandcamp] What astonishing beauty to stumble upon without warning! Espen Reinertsen is a name I’ve known for a while, as his saxophone and woodwinds – or his mixing skills – are credited on many a Norwegian release, including those from Trondheim Jazz Orchestra, Erik Honoré, Kim Myhr, Jenny Hval and Christian Wallumrød Ensemble. But these are his own songs, with sparse live drums and drum machines, sparse keyboards and gorgeous woodwind & trumpet arrangements which frequently shift into unexpected voicings and harmonies. You’ll hear a lot of Radiohead here – albeit more jazz-informed – but it’s also one of those rare cases when the post-rock-as-in-Talk-Talk tag is completely justified. Reinertsen’s melodies are simple until they spin off into some harmonically distant galaxy, and his layers of woodwinds are delicately emotive, merging invisibly with synthesizers just as Erik Nylander’s acoustic drums somehow have the precision of drum machines and also the sparkle of jazz drums. What a blessing. Marianna Sangita Angeletaki Røe & Trondheim Jazz Orchestra – Kori [Puritone/Bandcamp] So, Trondheim Jazz Orchestra are a collective with a varying lineup of Norwegian improvising musicians, who enlist different musicians to collaborate with them, with reliably extraordinary results. On this album, they work with Greek-Norwegian singer & composer Marianna Sangita Angeletaki Røe, who has titled the album ΣΠΙΤΙ (SPITI), which is Greek for “Home”. Marianna Sangita explores her own search for belonging, caught between two very different places, and she sings in four different languages: Norwegian, Greek, English, and Sámi, the latter being a people indigenous to the Sápmi region across northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and part of Russia. The music, too, draws from many different traditions, with Greece’s proximity to the area Europeans call the “Middle East” evident in its traditional musical forms, and the combined vocals of Sangita, Ina Sagstuen and Sissel Vera Pettersen (and other musicians at times) evoking Eastern European musics as much as Nordic. The musicianship is uniformly brilliant, the songs sparkling, moving, joyful. Highly recommended. Mayssa Jallad – Taamir (Bahriyyeh) [Ruptured Records/Bandcamp] A few years back, Beirut label Ruptured put out an amazing album by Lebanese singer/songwriter and researcher Mayssa Jallad called Marjaa: The Battle of the Hotels. In touching experimental songs, Jallad chronicled the beginning of the Lebanese Civil War in 1975, in which Christian Nationalists and pro-Palestinian leftists fought a violent battle amongst the high-rise hotels in Beirut, leading to the Green Line dividing the city, a rift that lasted for 15 years. Since then the album has been remixed in spectral dub fashion by Civilistjävel!, and in 2024 Mayssa created a stunning piece about a Palestinian woman displaced from her village in the Nakba. That single was created out of an instrumental track by Tunefork Studios & Ruptured Records’ Fadi Tabbal, and her new song “Taamir (Bahriyyeh)” is a musical collaboration with Tabbal, featuring drums from Postcards & SANAM‘s Pascal Semerdjian. Jallad is an urban researcher as well as a musician, and urban history is the basis of all these works. This song is about the Taamir social housing project, built in the wake of a destructive earthquake in 1956. By the time the project started, the Ain el Helwe refugee camp had already existed for 8 years, and the juxtaposition of Palestinian refugees, unfortunates who lost their homes in the earthquake, and those more fortunate, is explored by Jallad in this moving, experimental piece, with rumbling, clattering drones and field recordings surrounding Jallad’s voice. Radwan Ghazi Moumneh & Frédéric D. Oberland – Squeal Of Swine خنخنة خنازير [Constellation/Bandcamp] Montreal’s storied Constellation label here brings together a Canadian and French artist for their first duo work. Radwan Ghazi Moumneh has been deeply involved in the Montreal postrock & experimental music in Quebec for over 2 decades, and he’s the co-owner of the mighty Hotel2Tango, originally a performance & artists’ space co-run by members of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and A Silver Mt. Zion, but his main musical outlet has been Jerusalem In My Heart, begun as an audiovisual project with Erin Weisgerber, with Moumneh’s stunning melismatic vocals fed through granular processing to create a contemporary Arabic music ahead of its time in the mid-2010s. Frédéric D. Oberland is a key figure in Paris’s psych & avant-rock scenes, although he also began making films on Super8 & video. Among many bands & collaborations, he leads the incredible Oiseaux-Tempête, a collective whose music draws on psych, krautrock, postpunk and electronic music, with many collaborators and a deep connection to SWANA artists. Moumneh & Oberland had worked together via Oiseaux-Tempête and other projects, but had long intended to collaborate as a duo. Some works were started at Hotel2Tango in 2023, but as Moumneh puts it, since the genocide began he’d experienced sever writer’s block, so he took himself off to Paris in 2024 to complete the work. Four of the seven tracks do feature Moumneh’s voice, but here it’s Oberland taking more of a driver’s seat. Nevertheless, as well as Moumneh’s pain-filled voice Moumneh plays both buzuk and rababa, and there’s daf in the mix along with lots of electronic drones, drum machines and Oberland’s sax and clarineau. This is immersive music of great emotion. Maryam Saleh – Nedaa نداء [Simsara Records/Bandcamp] I first heard Egyptian singer Maryam Saleh as part of the magnificent trio release Lekhfa back in 2017. There, Saleh’s voice combined with the voice and instruments of Palestinian-Egyptian musician Tamer Abu Ghazaleh and the production wizardry and music of Maurice Louca – a masterpiece of Arabic indie music. As far as I can see, her new album, coming some 9 years later, is her first since that collaboration. Produced by Maurice Louca, it also features multiple instruments and creative mentoring from Paris-based Palestinian musician Kamilya Jubran, who founded the organisation Zamkara in Paris to support artistic projects. After three years of development, the result is Syrr سِرّ, the Arabic word for secret, which also happens to be the name Saleh gave her daughter. The album is imprinted by heavy events in Saleh’s life, particularly post-natal depression and divorce. Released by Sarah El Miniawy‘s Simsara Records, this is a creative take on Arabic music, leaning into trip-hop at times, into acoustic instrumentation at other times, carried by Saleh’s beautifully expressive voice and the confident hands of Jubran and Louca, and the impeccable musicianship of the other instrumentalists who join them. But one of the highlights is “Nafas نفَس”, in which Saleh is accompanied solely by Jubran’s oud and exquisitely-harmonised vocal shadows from the two of them. All in all, not to be missed! Taroug – Sirocco [Denovali/Bandcamp] On his second album with Denovali Records, Chott, Düsseldorf-based Tunisian musician Taroug (aka Tarek Zarroug) presents a highly varied mixture of styles. When Zarroug wants to make beat-based bass music, he hits all the right production notes with a healthy dose of north African percussion, while elsewhere there’s dreamy postrock with vocals by the artist himself. Honestly it’s uncanny how the album flits between genres, displaying Zarroug’s ancestry here, slipping into UK bass there or indie guitar music elsewhere. A really impressive album. Wraz. – Twist [Deep Dark & Dangerous/Bandcamp] Rites, the second full album from Montreal dubstep master Wraz., is released through Deep Dark & Dangerous, the label run by New Zealand’s longstanding dubstep duo Truth. As usual, heavyweight dubstep gear, sci-fi aesthetics, surprising melodies… Battery Operated – Stutter [YUKU/Bandcamp] Battery Operated – Casting Shadows [YUKU/Bandcamp] It should be obvious by now that YUKU delivers the goods, but here they are again with something insanely great. The artist behind Battery Operated is also known as PS95, an outlet for mangled jungle breaks that draws our attention to the fact that the Playstation was launched in 1995, the heyday of jungle. On the other hand, Battery Operated has thus far been an alias for deliciously lo-fi tape loops – see their Instagram for videos of their beautifully-modded cassettes & players. But the debut Battery Operated album for YUKU, TYPE I, combines these two strands in stunning fashion. From what I can tell, PS95 & the recording artist Battery Operated are the same person, but the tape loop “art” projects are done with his brother. So this ain’t dance music, not primarily, but nor is it dreamy loop-jelly. Breaks surface from tape hiss, tape loop experiments are layered & sequenced into melodies and sonic narratives, often sounding like a half-analogue/half-digital current-day version of IDM. Wonderful. Thugwidow – IT DIDN’T NEED EXPLAINING [Thugwidow Bandcamp] Thugwidow – pristine heart [Thugwidow Bandcamp] Jungle may be having a renaissance right now, with no end in sight, but Welsh producer Alex Lowther-Harris was on the jungle train way before most. The first Thugwidow releases were around 2017, and for a few years he was fiercly prolific, released mostly on cassette and digital, with a couple of CDs and some vinyl further down the track. His lo-fi early work gave way to slicker production chops as time went on, and the creative firehose slowed by around 2021-22. So it was a joyful shock to see something new appear on his bandcamp, only… it’s a swan song? Yes, SWUN SUNGZ does do what its title suggests, but it also shows that this prolific artist had more up his sleeve – it’s just that the pleasure had drained from it, he was feeling stuck… So here’s *ahem* 121 tracks, going for almost 11½ hours, and there’s a lot of quality material here, including a bunch of collaborations, and productions ranging from hardcore jungle-techno to advanced rhythm science. It’s a helluva way to go out! Note also that not only is all the money likely going to the British bird & wildlife charity RSPB, but he says most of his earnings from the project were always given away to charity. CRZKNY – 009 [Virgin Babylon Records] Japanese experimental electronic producer CRZKNY (which I’ve just learned stands for “CRAZY KENNY”) has brushed shoulders with experimental genre-mashing legend (and seminal UFog artist) World’s End Girlfriend before, on WEG productions and on his label Virgin Babylon, but this is a bit of a special release – a bit like Thugwidow’s above, this is a massive collection of unreleased tunes, here all just numbered as they’re pieces that CRZKNY has played at the Nagoya club GOODWEATHER. CZRKNY put this collection together to help support the club’s founder Eri Ishii after she suffered both an aortic dissection and a cerebral thrombosis, leaving her in a coma for some weeks. She is now on a long road of rehabilitation, and CRZKNY wants to give back to a person who built this perfect live space for his music. Lots of great techno, including glitchy shit and tasty breakbeats, for a good cause. deafkids – CICATRIZES [Neurot Recordings/Bandcamp] Brazilian band deafkids may nominally be classed as “punk”, but hardcore punk mixes with industrial and noise in their sound, along with electronic music of all shapes. They released the incredible uncategorizable Metaprogramação on Neurosis‘ Neurot Recordings in 2019, and then when the pandemic hit, they put out a series of EPs that mixed Latin rhythmic complexity with guitar pedal and software experimentation, collected now on the album Ritos do Colapso. Except before that in 2020 came their collaboration DEAFBRICK with cross-continental noise-metal-industrial-electronic duo PETBRICK. So with various collabs and oddities in the interim, their forthcoming CICATRIZES DO FUTURO (Scars of the Future) is their first album proper since Metaprogramação. It looks to be more electronic, more intense, more angry than ever, a visceral reaction to the state of the world. Highly rhythmic and danceable, it shifts between hardcore punk, industrial, Latin American and club sounds with abandon. I can’t wait to hear the whole thing. Lint – Balsam of Peru [Lint Bandcamp] OK so, you know, like Scattered Order? A band who I have referred to in the past as “Sydney postpunk/post-industrial/experimental electronic legends”. Mitch Jones is a founding member of said legendary band, active since the early ’80s or possibly slightly earlier, post-etc as described above. Drusilla Johnson aka Dru Jones has been a member of said legendary band at times, and has contributed some brilliant artwork in various phases of their existence. She’s also Mitch’s wife, and they live now in Mt Victoria, in the Blue Mountains on Dharug and Gundungurra country, and at times they release music together as Lint. It’s instinctual, artistic, splashes of colour washed over detailed line drawings… It’s the sound of Air in the taps, but it’s also the sound of over four decades building and trashing and rebuilding a musical language, and you can hear it in every dialogue sample and every wonky beat and the occasional guitar noise solo. It’s so lovely to have a seemingly endless font of new music from these folks in many changing combinations. Roman Rofalski – Ondine (radio edit 1) [Puddle Label/Bandcamp] Last time we heard from German pianist Roman Rofalski – only a few weeks ago – he was deconstructing his piano… again, following his wonderful Fractal from 2024, which shredded piano and prepared piano into constellations of granular sound and rhythm. Ravel Reimagined does just what it tells you – but to be clear, Rofalski does it really well. Over four tracks, Rofalski excerpts four celebrated piano works by the beloved impressionist composer and deconstructs them – and it’s notable that these are live performances, with Rofalski playing grand piano and simultaneously sampling himself, then reworking phrases into loops & glitchy constructions, overlaying them with synths and even beats at times. Maurice Ravel was famously prickly, was not fond of the borrowed artistic term of “impressionism” being used for his music (nor was his elder, Debussy), and was underappreciated in his time. He’s also one of my favourite composers, who I believe advanced composition in directions hitherto unimagined. Rofalski’s extrapolations push Ravel far beyond his imaginings, and it’s quite likely he would be horrified to hear what’s been done to his pieces – but now we’re imagining a composer unmoored by over a century from his origins; these prickly pieces require decades of context to situate them here and now. The virtuosic pianism outlining harmonies full of augmented and diminished intervals, whole-tone scales, melodies woven through corruscating hemidemisemiquavers (hear the original here) are thrown immediately into digital reverberation and gradual distortion until they’re glitched and chopped, then crash into long-ringing tones, a fragmented sample bleating around Ravel’s melody as the piece comes to a close. Bravo. OD – Arrival [Driftworks/Bandcamp] Alex O’Donovan is a recording & mixing engineer, but as OD he makes his own music. On Svalr, O’Donovan documents time spent in Svalbard, an island archipelago in the Arctic which is also home to Norway’s Global Seed Vault (the subject of another beautiful sound work by Ecker & Meulyzer). This album is part of a new project called SITE, co-curated by Audiobulb and Driftworks. O’Donovan took extensive field recordings of the diversity of natural sounds (including glaciers!) as well as the built environment, and found commonalities in all these sounds that formed the basis of his compositions. Remote as it is, Svalbard is inevitably encroached upon by anthrogenic climate change, and as the EP goes on, the sounds of water & ice & animals are swept up in almost industrial impulses, and glitched beat constructions. OD’s Svalr makes compelling music around its highly engaging field recordings. Sandscape – half closed eyes [Octopoda Records/Bored of Works/Bandcamp] Sudanese-Scottish “ethereal grunger” Eliza Shaddad and screen composer Daniel Sonabend team up as Sandscape on the forthcoming album Phenomenology, and first single “half closed eyes” is like hearing a dusty 7″ record playing in a different room of your house – a beguiling piece of ambient-dub-jazz with both artists’ vocals, soft but saturated piano, and muffled drumming from Liam Hutton. Unexpected harmonisations flow over the looping music, but not long after it fades away like a dream – “half closed eyes” indeed. The album promises noise-laden trip-hop, muffled jazz and an exploration of the mixed Arab/British/Jewish heritage between the members… Keen to hear more. Stine Janvin / Morten Joh – Leaving home – O Verden, Hav Da Gode Nat! (feat. Lucy Railton) [Futura Resistenza/Bandcamp] Stine Janvin / Morten Joh – Before the burial site – Jeg Raader Eder Alle [Futura Resistenza/Bandcamp] Returning now to Norway, we finish with beautiful strangeness from Norwegians Stine Janvin and Morten Joh, adapting funeral procession music (“Liksongen” = corpse songs) from Ryfylke, Norway. Janvin’s voice forms the basis of these works, but the ceremonial music is rendered alien through extensive electronic processing and additional electronics, and occasional vibraphone from Joh. Two guests, both with innovative approaches to their instruments, contribute further: Berlin-based Australian guitarist Jules Reidy and British cellist Lucy Railton. But one of the most magical moments must be when Janvin’s voice is shadowed by its electronic twin in warbling harmony. On the second last track, the alien elements mostly give way to the acoustic sounds of voice and vibraphone, although the album concludes with stentorian synths playing J.S. Bach. Not for the faint of heart, but rewarding listening. Listen again — ~208MB

SynopsisToday is International Women's Day, a global celebration of the social, economic, political, and cultural achievements of women, so here's a French composer whose name you may not have heard before, but you should!After all, her music was good enough that Gabriel Fauré, Paul Dukas, and Maurice Ravel performed it at musical salons in Paris. She was a close friend of the famous composer and teacher Nadia Boulanger, studied organ with Louis Vierne, and composition with Vincent d'Indy.But enough name-dropping. Her name was Charlotte Sohy. Born in Paris in 1887, and in the early decades of the 20th century, achieved both professional status and public success as a composer, writing masses, art songs, piano pieces, chamber music, and this symphony, which dates from 1917.Unlike many women composers of the past, Sohy's husband fully supported her career. After all, he was also a composer, and she even collaborated with him on a few of his pieces. Still, even in cosmopolitan Paris, she chose to publish her music under the pseudonym Charles Sohy, and while her chamber works received performances, her symphony remained unperformed during her lifetime.Music Played in Today's ProgramCharlotte Sohy (1887-1955): Symphony in C-sharp minor; Orchestre National de France; Débora Waldman, conductor; Palazzetto Bru Zane Label BZ-2006

Từ ngày 27/11 đến 9/12 năm 2025, nghệ sĩ piano Pháp-Rumani Dana Ciocarlie đã thực hiện chuyến lưu diễn tại Việt Nam, đưa khán giả đi qua những dòng sông, nơi âm nhạc gợi lên hình ảnh chuyển động của nước và tạo thành những kết nối giữa các thế hệ, các nền văn hóa. Chuyến lưu diễn nằm trong khuôn khổ dự án Vivre avec les fleuves của Viện Pháp và danh hiệu Living with Rivers của hiệp hội Novelette, thể hiện tinh thần hợp tác nghệ thuật và ý thức về môi trường, biến mỗi buổi trình diễn thành một hành trình khám phá đầy cảm hứng. Việt Nam là một đất nước được hình thành và được nuôi dưỡng nhờ nước. Các con sông không chỉ tạo nên địa hình và cảnh quan, mà còn đóng vai trò trung tâm trong đời sống kinh tế, xã hội và văn hóa. Từ miền Bắc đến miền Nam, sông ngòi kết nối các vùng đất, định hình đô thị, điều tiết mùa màng và lưu giữ ký ức tập thể. Tại Hà Nội, nhịp sống đô thị dày đặc, liên tục vận động, gợi cảm giác dòng chảy không ngừng. Ở phía Nam, sông nước mênh mông, chia nhánh, tạo thành vùng châu thổ rộng lớn của sông Mê Kông. Trong bối cảnh ấy, chuyến lưu diễn của Dana Ciocarlie gợi lên hình ảnh một cuộc hành trình xuôi theo dòng nước, nơi âm nhạc đối thoại với không gian, lịch sử và con người. Dự án này không chỉ xuất phát từ một chủ đề hay một lãnh thổ, mà còn từ một tình bạn Pháp–Việt được xây dựng qua thời gian. Trước chuyến lưu diễn, đó là một quá trình trao đổi lâu dài, dựa trên sự tin cậy, những câu chuyện được chia sẻ và « dịch chuyển » theo nghĩa rộng : dịch chuyển trong ngôn ngữ, văn hóa và ý tưởng sáng tạo nghệ thuật. Âm nhạc dần trở thành phương tiện chung, kết nối sông Loire – biểu tượng di sản của Pháp – với sông Mê Kông, nguồn sống thiết yếu của Việt Nam, và rộng hơn là kết nối các dân tộc với nhau. Dana cho biết : « Ở Pháp, chúng tôi có một con sông lớn mang tên Loire, đồng thời cũng là nơi khai sinh hiệp hội Novelette mà tôi tham gia thành lập. Và năm 2025 lại được chọn là Năm Quốc tế về sông nước, nên điều này thật hiển nhiên khi chúng tôi nghĩ đến việc tạo nên một chương trình âm nhạc và hành trình khám phá Việt Nam, bắt đầu từ Loire sau đó hướng về Mê Kông. Hai dòng sông này thậm chí còn được chính thức kết nghĩa với nhau. » Chuyến lưu diễn được triển khai với sự hỗ trợ của Viện Pháp tại Việt Nam và hiệp hội Novelette, đơn vị đạt danh hiệu Living with Rivers. Dự án là những suy tư về nước không chỉ như một yếu tố tự nhiên, mà như một mối liên kết sống động giữa con người, văn hóa và sáng tạo. Trong khuôn khổ đó, sông trở thành một không gian gặp gỡ giữa các lĩnh vực, các thế hệ và các chương trình nghệ thuật khác nhau. Một trong những khoảnh khắc đáng nhớ của chuyến lưu diễn là cuộc gặp gỡ với nhóm nghiên cứu CARE (Center Asian Research on Water) trên sông Sài Gòn, nơi Dana Ciocarlie trao đổi về tình trạng của các hệ thống sông ngòi đô thị với các nhà khoa học Pháp và Việt Nam. Những cuộc trao đổi này giúp bà nhận thức được rằng nước không chỉ là nguồn cảm hứng âm nhạc, mà còn là một thực thể mong manh, gắn với trách nhiệm chung, khiến mỗi buổi hòa nhạc trở thành một không gian chia sẻ và nâng cao nhận thức về môi trường. Ngày 28/11, nghệ sĩ piano Dana Ciocarlie tham gia buổi tổng duyệt đầu tiên với dàn nhạc VNSO, dưới sự chỉ huy của nhạc trưởng Honna Tetsuji. Trong chương trình biểu diễn tối 29 tháng 11 tại Phòng Hòa nhạc Quốc gia Hà Nội, bà trình diễn Concerto số 5 của Camille Saint-Saëns. Dana Ciocarlie chia sẻ : « Concerto số 5 là một tác phẩm khá đặc biệt, còn được gọi là ‘Egyptien' (Ai Cập), lấy cảm hứng từ đất nước, con người Ai Cập và phương Đông. Văn hóa Pháp thường xuyên hướng cái nhìn về các lục địa khác, các nền văn hóa khác. Camille Saint-Saëns là một nhà soạn nhạc thuộc trường phái Lãng mạn vào thế kỷ 19. Tác phẩm này mang ý nghĩa của một hành trình khám phá.» Bà cho biết thêm: « Tác phẩm có mạch chảy xuyên suốt và đồng thời giàu tính kỹ thuật, càng rực rỡ qua tiếng dương cầm, đưa người nghe qua nhiều tâm cảnh khác nhau.» Trong buổi hòa nhạc, nghệ sĩ và dàn nhạc tạo nên một cuộc đối thoại sinh động. Kỹ thuật nhanh nhạy, linh hoạt và giàu năng lượng của Dana Ciocarlie trên phím dương cầm mang lại cho người nghe cảm giác chuyển động – lúc mềm mại, lúc dữ dội như những dòng chảy của nước - phù hợp với chủ đề trung tâm của chương trình. Khán giả tại Học viện Âm nhạc Quốc gia đã dành cho nghệ sĩ những tràng pháo tay nồng nhiệt. Đáp lễ, bà biểu diễn thêm bản Hành khúc Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ của Mozart như một món quà đặc biệt ở phần cuối chương trình. Dana Ciocarlie hiện cũng đang thực hiện các bản thu trực tiếp các concerto của Mozart tại Paris, một số đã được phát hành và các phiên bản khác sắp ra mắt, mở rộng hành trình âm nhạc mà bà đã gửi đến người Việt Nam. Từ Hà Nội, chuyến lưu diễn tiếp tục đến Huế, Đà Nẵng, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh và Đà Lạt. Mỗi chặng dừng là một dịp gặp gỡ với các ê-kíp địa phương, khán giả, cũng như sinh viên và giảng viên các nhạc viện. Chương trình được xây dựng như một hành trình xuyên thế hệ và truyền thống âm nhạc, kết nối các nhà soạn nhạc có chung nền tảng đào tạo như Maurice Ravel, Gabriel Fauré và Georges Enesco, với các nhà soạn nhạc đương đại, trong đó có Élise Bertrand, gương mặt trẻ đang được chú ý tại Pháp, Édith Canat de Chizy và Marie Jaëll. Dana Ciocarlie đặc biệt quan tâm đến việc giới thiệu các tác phẩm của các nhà sáng tác nữ, xem đó như một phần thiết yếu trong cam kết nghệ thuật của mình. Bên cạnh đó là sự hiện diện của nhà soạn nhạc Việt Nam Tôn Thất Tiết, sinh ra tại Huế, một tên tuổi quen thuộc trên các diễn đàn âm nhạc quốc tế, dù còn ít được biết đến trong nước. Nói về tinh thần của chương trình, Dana Ciocarlie tâm sự với RFI : « Tôi nghĩ chương trình sẽ giống như một cơn lốc của những tương phản : có những bản nhạc nghe khá lạ lẫm, nhưng cũng có những giai điệu rất quen thuộc. Tôi mong đợi ở khán giả sự tò mò, sự quan tâm và cả sự thân thiện. » Các tác phẩm trong chương trình được lựa chọn để đối thoại với chủ đề nước và lịch sử âm nhạc, từ những âm thanh linh hoạt, trong trẻo của Ravel hay Dutilleux, đến không gian tĩnh tại, chiêm nghiệm của Debussy, và thế giới nội tâm, đa chiều trong các tác phẩm của Marie Jaëll, Philippe Hersant hay Édith Canat de Chizy. Fauré gợi nhịp điệu đều đặn, nhẹ nhàng như thuyền trôi êm đềm trên dòng sông phẳng lặng, Bertrand nhắc về nguồn cội, còn Tôn Thất Tiết khép lại chương trình bằng một bức tranh âm thanh đa tầng, diễn đạt những trạng thái đối lập của biển và thiên nhiên. Trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt, Dana Ciocarlie khẳng định âm nhạc là một ngôn ngữ chung, không cần lời nói, nhưng có khả năng kết nối con người và mở ra những cách nhìn mới về thế giới. Được công chúng Việt Nam đón nhận nồng nhiệt, dự án này cho thấy sự giao thoa chặt chẽ giữa nghệ thuật và ý thức môi trường. Sau hành trình tại Việt Nam, chương trình đã được giới thiệu tại Pháp, trong khuôn khổ lễ hội La Folle Journée ở Nantes, vào ngày 29/1/2026, nơi các dòng sông một lần nữa trở thành chất liệu âm nhạc và không gian suy ngẫm chung.

Œuvre emblématique de Maurice Ravel, idéale pour se familiariser avec les différents instruments de l'orchestre symphonique, le Boléro s'est révélé également, en termes de droits d'auteur, un casse-tête juridique digne d'une saga.

Editor's Note, by Art Middlekauff When does a composer qualify for composer study? And when is music “good enough” for music appreciation? I have wondered this as I have surveyed Dawn Tull's table of composers studied in the Parents' Union School from 1908–1953. Many modern composers are listed. Some were studied in their own lifetimes. … The post Maurice Ravel first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.

Can an opera, that most complex of art forms, take you back to childhood?  Unlikely though it might seem, L'Enfant et les Sortilèges (“The Child and the Enchantments”) does just that through the talents of composer Maurice Ravel and writer Colette.  This one-act opera, fantastical though it is, can transport you to all-too-real, seemingly lost memories.  Over the course of the story, our nameless child protagonist wrestles with his powerlessness and power, responsibility and dependence, piteousness and pity.  Join host Pat with Erica Miner, the mystery writer, lecturer and former Met Opera violinist, in celebration of the 150th anniversary of the birth of French composer Maurice Ravel on this episode of Opera for Everyone.

Maurice Ravel war ein Klangmagier, er schuf einen Orchesterklang von unfassbarer Farbigkeit, Raffinesse und Transparenz. Mit "Daphnis et Chloé" hinterließ er ein Jahrhundertwerk. Zum 150. Geburtstag hat das Orchestre National de France unter Cristian Măcelaru die wichtigsten Orchesterwerke aufgenommen. Eine glänzende Einspielung.

Nowadays it's hard to imagine Maurice Ravel as a "bad-boy" revolutionary, a member of a group whose name can be loosely translated as The Hooligans. To most listeners today, Ravel's music is the very picture of sumptuous beauty. But the group he belonged to, Les Apaches ("The Hooligans"), earned its name because of its members' uncompromising attitudes about music; attitudes that clashed sharply with the conservative tastes of the establishment. Another composer who belonged to Les Apaches was the Spanish composer Manuel de Falla. Falla is certainly not as well known as Ravel, but the two became fast friends when he arrived in Paris in 1907. They formed a kind of mutual-admiration society that proved immensely fruitful for both of them. Falla was deeply impressed by Ravel's Spanish-inflected music, marveling at its authenticity given that Ravel was French. But Ravel, now a symbol of French music, was the son of a Swiss father and a Spanish-speaking mother, and he was born just eleven miles from the Spanish border in the Basque region. His Spanish voice was no affectation; it came from somewhere deep within, and Falla noticed this immediately, remarking that Ravel's Rapsodie espagnole was "a Spain ideally presented by his mother." Today on the show we'll explore the Spanish world of Falla and Ravel through two central works: Falla's Nights in the Gardens of Spain and Ravel's Rapsodie espagnole. These pieces, both astonishing in their creativity and craftsmanship, offer a wonderful opportunity to compare and contrast the music and approaches of these two close friends. We'll also talk about Les Apaches and their goals, legacy, and some of their legendary members. All this and more is coming up on this final collaboration on Ravel and Friends with G. Henle Publishers! Join us!

La relación entre el genio creativo y la salud mental lleva intrigándonos desde tiempos remotos. Se lo preguntan artistas, escritores, filósofos, psiquiatras y neurobiólogos: ¿existe algún vínculo entre inspiración y locura o se trata de un lugar común? La misma duda, lejos de arrojar una respuesta definitiva, abre otros interrogantes sobre la propia condición humana: ¿qué es la locura?, ¿por qué resulta fascinante asomarse a sus abismos?, ¿tiene el loco una sensibilidad artística diferente simplemente por serlo? En este documental, con guion de Alfredo Laín y realización de Mayca Aguilera, afloran nombres como Leopoldo María Panero, Salvador Dalí, Maurice Ravel, Vincent Van Gogh o Fiódor Dostoievski. Participan el psiquiatra Fernando Colina, autor de 'La belleza de los locos'; el periodista José Benito Fernández, responsable de la biografía 'El contorno del abismo. Vida y leyenda de Leopoldo María Panero'; Julia Ramírez, doctora en Historia del Arte e investigadora; Pedro Gargantilla, profesor de Humanidades Médicas de la Universidad Europea de Madrid; y José Ángel Morales, doctor en neurobiología.Escuchar audio

Alec and Nick return to podcasting to discuss their special respective connections to classical music. The conversation employs a back-to-basics overview of the form: what is classical music? What is NOT classical music? What was and is it? Taking a zoomed-out approach, the episode spans the culture, mechanics, operations, and evolution of classical music: arriving at an assessment of the “audacity of its form” in relationship to the dysfunction and cosmopolitanism of contemporary society. Johann Sebastian Bach, Igor Stravinsky, Richard Strauss, Maurice Ravel, Erik Satie, John Cage, Morton Feldman, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and even … Béla Fleck & the Flecktones are all mentioned.

In the mid-1920s, Maurice Ravel wrote a letter to the legendary composition teacher Nadia Boulanger. Boulanger's class was a mecca for composers, both young and old, and musicians from all over the world vied to study with her. But Ravel's letter wasn't on his own behalf. Instead, he urged Boulanger to take on a young student whom Ravel himself had declined to teach. He wrote: "There is a musician here endowed with the most brilliant, most enchanting, and perhaps the most profound talent: George Gershwin. His worldwide success no longer satisfies him, for he is aiming higher. He knows that he lacks the technical means to achieve his goal. In teaching him those means, one might ruin his talent. Would you have the courage, which I wouldn't dare have, to undertake this awesome responsibility?" Boulanger also declined to take Gershwin as a student, fearing, like Ravel, that she might damage his spontaneity and dynamic jazz sensibility. Whether or not the famous story is true (that Ravel turned down Gershwin's request to study with him by saying, “Why be a second-rate Ravel when you are a first-rate Gershwin?”) we may never know. But the two composers were friendly, and formed something of a mutual admiration society. Today, in this fourth collaboration with G. Henle Publishers in honor of their Ravel and Friends project, we're going to explore the connections between these two great composers: their friendship, their mutual influence, and the profound ways jazz infused itself into Ravel's music, particularly in his Violin Sonata and Piano Concerto in G. From the moment he discovered it, Ravel adored jazz, and like many French composers of the time, allowed its influence to permeate his work in ways both explicit and subtle. Join us!

As festas juninas, tão celebradas no Brasil, especialmente no Nordeste, são muito mais do que tradições populares: elas carregam significados profundos e simbólicos que remontam às antigas culturas europeias e se mesclam às raízes indígenas e africanas do nosso país. Neste episódio, o professor Paulo Tarcísio, da Nova Acrópole de João Pessoa, compartilha conosco uma reflexão filosófica sobre a origem, os símbolos e os significados dessa festividade tão rica. Com base no solstício de verão no hemisfério norte e o solstício de inverno no hemisfério sul, as festas juninas celebram a abundância, a fertilidade, a purificação e a união. Elementos como o milho, a fogueira, os balões, as danças e as bandeirinhas são repletos de simbolismo, representando tanto os frutos da terra quanto a luz que vence a escuridão. Paulo destaca a importância de adaptarmos esses símbolos à nossa realidade e convida à reflexão sobre o valor da gratidão, da convivência e da virtude, em meio às tradições culturais. Este episódio é um convite a vivenciar com consciência e profundidade as festas juninas, fortalecendo os laços afetivos e reconhecendo a riqueza simbólica que permeia nossas celebrações. Participantes: Paulo Tarcísio e Pedro Guimarães  Trilha Sonora: Jeux d'eau de Maurice Ravel

On today's episode of "Conversations On Dance", we are joined by former Chief Dance Critic of the New York Times and performing arts historian Alastair Macaulay to discuss the legacy of composer Maurice Ravel around the corner from his 150th birthday. We talk about Ravel's major commissions for dance, how dance influenced his compositions outside of those meant for the concert dance stage, and his continued impact on major choreographers of the 20th century and onwards, like Frederick Ashton and George Balanchine.

Magician, Swiss Watchmaker, Aloof, Elegant, Precise, Soulful, Childlike, Naive, Warm: these are all words that have been used to describe Maurice Ravel, a man of elegant contradictions. But perhaps these contradictions are why his music remains so beloved and universally appealing to so many musicians and audience members. Ravel has long been one of my favorite composers, and I always adore listening to his music and performing it. For the 150th anniversary of his birth, the legendary publishing house of G Henle has decided to focus on Ravel and his circle this year, calling this series Ravel and Friends. A few months ago, the Henle office contacted me to ask if I would be willing to collaborate with them on a series of Sticky Notes episodes about Ravel, each one focusing on the relationship between Ravel and another composer who was in his circle. This sounded like an amazing idea, and so I jumped at the chance to work with them. So, over the course of the next 5-6 months, you will be seeing 5 episodes under the Ravel and Friends theme. Today's episode will be a chance to do an overview on Ravel himself and to take a look at some major works that I haven't gotten around to covering on the show yet. We'll then finish the show with an interview with the great pianist Boris Giltburg, as we discuss the solo piano verison of Ravel's La Valse, one of the most challenging pieces in the entire repertoire. Later episodes will include a look at Ravel's relationships with Debussy, Gershwin, and De Falla, and much more! This is such an exciting chance to take a deeper look at one of the greatest 19th and 20th century composers, as well as take a look at the broader musical and social trends of that era, something I've always been deeply interested in.
