Podcasts about messiaen

The writer Simon Barnes has two very public passions - sport and the natural world. He wrote about both for The Times for 30 years, covering seven Olympic Games and six World Cup finals, while also delivering columns on short-eared owls, mountain hares and “the organ-pipe contact call of lions." His books include reflections on the meaning and the soul of sport, and numerous titles about birds, including the best-selling How to Be a Bad Birdwatcher, in which he says: ‘Birdwatching is a state of being, not an activity. It is not a matter of organic trainspotting. It is about life and it is about living.' This way of seeing also informs his most recent book How to Fly – which examines not only birds, but butterflies, bees, bats and the deep human fascination with flight. Simon's musical choices include Beethoven, Scarlatti, Monteverdi and Messiaen.

Today, we're putting The Tonearm's needle on Toronto drummer and composer Nick Fraser.Nick Fraser is one of the most distinctive voices in Canadian improvised music. He has played with Anthony Braxton, Roscoe Mitchell, and William Parker, and has led projects that range from raw free jazz to something much harder to name.His latest record, Areas, just dropped on Elastic Recordings. It's a trio date with saxophonist Tony Malaby and pianist Kris Davis. Electroacoustic interludes by composer John Kameel Farah thread through the album, built from processed duo recordings of Fraser and Malaby. The album has weight and atmosphere in equal measure, and it's unlike anything I've heard this year.We talked about the making of Areas, what a long-term group actually sounds like from the inside, and where his music is headed.(The musical excerpts heard in the interview are from Nick Fraser's Areas)—Dig DeeperArtist and AlbumVisit Nick Fraser at nickfraserthedrummer.com and follow him on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTubePurchase or stream Areas at BandcampElastic Recordings — the Toronto imprint releasing AreasCollaborators on AreasKris Davis — pianist and composer; also visit her label Pyroclastic RecordsTony Malaby at Berklee College of Music — saxophonist and facultyJohn Kameel Farah — Palestinian-Canadian composer and pianist; hear the Farahser duo album at BandcampBen Monder — guitarist, who subbed for Davis at the Toronto album release concertsTribute and Influence: Brodie WestBrodie West — Toronto saxophonist and composer; "There Are Other Ways" is a tribute to his workWays — Brodie West's duo project with drummer Evan Cartwright, which the tribute track honorsLong-term CollaborationsLina Allemano — Toronto/Berlin trumpeter and composer; Fraser has played in the Lina Allemano Four for twenty yearsDrumheller — Fraser's decade-long cooperative group with Brodie West, Rob Clutton, Eric Chenaux, and Doug Tielli (2003–2013)Hamid Drake — Chicago drummer whom Fraser has been encouraging Brodie West to record withThe Imaginary Brass Band — a trio featuring Fraser alongside Doug Tielli and Heather Saumer; recorded the song “Sketch 57”Previous Trio RecordingsZoning (2019, Astral Spirits) — BandcampToo Many Continents (2015, Clean Feed) — Clean Feed RecordsMusical ReferenceOlivier Messiaen, Quartet for the End of Time — Fraser drew on Messiaen's harmonics when composing the title track "Area"Toronto Scene and OrganizationsAssociation of Improvising Musicians of Toronto (AIMToronto) — the nonprofit Fraser co-founded with Rob Clutton, Scott Thomson, Ken Aldcroft, and Joe Sorbara (now largely inactive; linked here is an academic roundtable with founding members)FACTOR — the Foundation Assisting Canadian Talent on Recordings; co-funded by the Canadian federal government and private radio broadcastersNick Fraser at the University of Toronto Faculty of Music — where Fraser teaches—Dig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com—• Did you enjoy this episode?

Wer schon einmal eine Übertragung der Berliner Philharmoniker im Stream geguckt hat, hat wahrscheinlich gar nicht bemerkt, dass da jemand in einer Regie sitzt und im Sekundentakt entscheidet, was zu sehen ist. Erste Geige? Pauke? Dirigent? Halbtotale? Der Mann hinter diesen Entscheidungen liest dabei nicht den Spielplan, sondern die Partitur. Heute geht es im Credit to the Edit Podcast um eine Variante des Schneidens, die in Echtzeit passiert: Live-Bildregie bei klassischen Konzerten. Zu Gast ist Sascha Etezazi, der für den WDR und andere Sender Konzerte als Streams und Filme begleitet. Sascha erzählt, wie er Wochen vor einem Konzert mit der Partitur "ins Bett" geht, wie er aus jedem Takt eine Bildidee macht und warum sein Job am Ende vor allem eines verlangt: Vertrauen. Vertrauen vom Bildmischer, der seine Anweisungen sekundengenau umsetzen kann. Vertrauen vom Orchester, das sich nicht ungerecht ins Bild gesetzt sehen will. Und Vertrauen ins eigene Bauchgefühl, wenn der Dirigent plötzlich vom Plan abweicht. Sascha Etezazi ist Tonmeister, Klangregisseur und Komponist. Er studierte Tonmeister am Erich-Thienhaus-Institut der Hochschule für Musik Detmold bei Bernhard Güttler und Komposition an der Robert-Schumann-Hochschule Düsseldorf bei Oliver Schneller. Seine Arbeit bewegt sich zwischen CD- und Radioproduktion, Bildregie, Klangregie und eigener Komposition für Konzert und Klanginstallation. Als Video Recording Producer gestaltet er seit Jahren die Bildregie der Klangkörper des WDR und ihrer internationalen Gäste; als Klangregisseur ist er regelmäßig bei den Darmstädter Ferienkursen, den Donaueschinger Musiktagen und Podium Esslingen aktiv. Aktuell beschäftigt er sich verstärkt mit der musikalischen Erkundung virtueller Umgebungen und mit den künstlerischen Mechanismen der Digitalität.

Critically acclaimed saxophonist, flautist and composer, Xhosa Cole is an embodiment of the success of numerous community outreach arts programmes in Birmingham, UK. Holding his spirituality at the center of his creative practice, Cole has been forging a career across communities in the UK and beyond. Having developed his unique mixed-heritage, black British queer voice in the Jazz tradition, Xhosa's musical roots are in collaboration and improvisation. This alchemic mix has opened the doors to work alongside a diverse and expansive pool of creative forces from different traditions, cultures, backgrounds and practices.The output of Cole's artistic practice manifests through performance, composition and teaching; all informing and reinforcing each other. With a musical language that is informed by and spans across cultures and modalities, Xhosa is a sought after composer in the contemporary classical and improvising industries in the UK. Having been commissioned by the BBC, Symphony Hall, Ideas of Noise Festival and Flatpack Film Festival and Aldeburg Festival Cole is building his own methodology for composition that puts islamic geometry, natural structures/processes, West African rhythms and non-hierarchical orchestration and performance at its center. This unique combination is the foundation of highly invigorating music that has the stability of sacred music structures found in Wester- Harmony and free combustion of Black improvising traditions. Cole's teachers include John O'gallager, Hans Koller and Pat Thomas, who supported in building an understanding of Western Classical composition from the foundations of Schoenberg's ‘Fundamentals of Musical Composition' through to the modalities of Messiaen, Bartok and Thelonious Monk.

En investigaciones recientes se está demostrando la complejidad de nuestra percepción. Nuestro cuerpo percibe su entorno con un sistema perceptivo que va mucho más allá de los cinco sentidos considerados hasta ahora. Los retos de nuestra cultura contemporánea implican un replanteamiento del conocimiento desde la perspectiva de lo afectivo, de lo holístico, desde la imaginación y desde el cuerpo. Es el caso de las relaciones entre pintura y música que se intensifican a inicios del siglo pasado. Recordamos Kandinsky y Schoenberg, Debussy y los impresionistas y muchos más. Para comprender estas interrelaciones sensoriales escucharemos obras de Debussy, Messiaen, Grisey, Unsuk Chin, y SaariahoEscuchar audio

Weltuntergang. Apokalypse. Das Ende der Zeit: Wer in einer Suchmaschine seiner Wahl diese Begriffe eingibt, bekommt in Sekundenschnelle Millionen Einträge. Weltuntergang hat Konjunktur. Filme, Videos, Musik und Social Media sind heute voll mit Untergangsfantasien. So wie in dem Science fiction - Klassiker von Douglas Adams „Per Anhalter durch die Galaxis“. Im Roman wird die Erde einfach gesprengt, weil sie im Weg ist. In der Antike und im Mittelalter waren es Unwetter, Pest oder Heuschreckenplagen, die als Vorboten der nahenden Apokalypse gedeutet wurden. Die Angst vor dem endgültigen Untergang begleitet die Menschen seit Jahrhunderten. Und auch die Frage: Ja, wann genau geht die Welt denn nun unter? Allein im Jahr 1600 kursierten 24 konkrete Termine für das Ende der Welt. Während bis ins späte 16. Jahrhundert hinein vor allem religiöse Endzeitvorstellungen die Menschen beunruhigten waren es spätestens nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg die Angst vor dem menschengemachten Ende der Welt, dem ökologischen Zusammenbruch und der Auslöschung unseres Planeten durch Atomwaffen.

Olivier Messiaen macht in „La Nativité du Seigneur“ das Weihnachtsmysterium mit seinen schwebenden Orgelklängen hörbar. Dem berühmten Werk widmen sich nun der schwedische Organist, Komponist und Maler Hans-Ola Ericsson, der Messiaen jahrelang bis zu seinem Tod 1992 begleitete, und die Organistin und Lyrikerin Katrin Bibiella. Gemeinsam schufen sie das Orgelwerk rahmende Bilder und Gedichte. Kerstin Bachtler hat die Künstler in Oppenheim besucht und ihnen in der Katharinenkirche gelauscht.

The great French soprano Rachel Yakar died on 24 June 2023 at the age of 87. As she frequently performed opposite our last subject, Swiss tenor Eric Tappy, this episode makes a suitable pendant to that one. Celebrated for her transcendent performances of Baroque music, (Monteverdi and the French Baroque in particular), Yakar was (like previous podcast subjects Eugene Holmes, Oralia Domínguez, Hana Janků, Gwendolyn Killebrew, and Teresa Żylis-Gara) also a member of ensemble of the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Düsseldorf and Duisburg, with which company she performed for more than 25 years, singing a dizzying range of repertoire, everything from Mélisande to Arabella, Liù to Rusalka, Euridice to Desdemona. She also performed Donna Elvira and the Marschallin at Glyndebourne; and was an unforgettable Poppea in the Ponnelle-Harnoncourt Monteverdi cycle filmed for Unitel. In her prime she was also a frequent visitor to the recording studio, singing everything from Rameau to Varèse, Mozart to Messiaen, with conductors from Harnoncourt to Boulez, Leonhardt to Nagano. She was also a devoted song recitalist and in the later years of her career, she made two recordings of melodies for Virgin Records with the admirable support of her long-term accompanist Claude Lavoix. For the majority of this episode, I have chosen excerpts from both of those recordings, featuring the songs of Fauré and Hahn, which include settings of poets central to their output, including Paul Verlaine, Armand Silvestre, Léconte de Lisle, and Théodore de Banville, supplementing it with additional material in French by Ravel, Lekeu, Clérambault, Messiaen, and Poulenc. Yakar, who, like Régine Crespin and Nadine Denize, studied under the French dramatic soprano Germaine Lubin, was renowned for her faultless technique, her acting prowess, her peerless French diction, and her communicative artistic sensibility, traits of which are all in evidence in all of her recordings from the 1960s through the end of her career in the mid-1990s. Yakar was especially treasured by her colleagues, friends, and students for the warmth and effervescence of her personality, and her devotion to passing on her knowledge and experience to a younger generation of singers. May you delight in the delicacy, humor, precision, and pathos of one of the most prodigiously gifted and versatile vocal artists of her generation. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

The pioneering choreographer Shobana Jeyasingh has produced more than 60 original works, many of them created for outdoor or unusual settings.She was born in India and came to England in her late teens to study English literature at Sussex University. She had learned classical Indian dance as a child and in her early twenties, she drew on that passion, touring first as a dancer and then founding her own dance company in 1989 to develop her own work.Since then, she has collaborated with scientists, film-makers and numerous composers including Errollyn Wallen, Kevin Volans and Michael Nyman.Her most recent work is inspired by The Tempest, and views Shakespeare's story through the eyes of Caliban, the so-called ‘monstrous' slave.Shobana's music includes Mozart, Messiaen, Arvo Part and Purcell.

Dame Rachel de Souza is the Children's Commissioner for England. She's the fourth person to take on this role, which was established in 2004 to promote and protect the rights of all children. Before becoming the Commissioner in 2021, she worked as a teacher and headteacher, and was credited with improving failing schools in less than privileged areas. In her current post, she's said that her priority is to listen to children, to hear about their lives and champion their voices – and she's focused on big and difficult questions, including mental health, online safety and the strip-searching of children by the police. Rachel's music includes Handel, Tippett, Messiaen and Beethoven.

Join us on a melodic journey as we explore the upcoming Missouri Chamber Music Festival with executive director Nina Ferrigno! This year's event is set to be a spectacular showcase of talent, innovation, and, of course, beautiful music, running from June 9th to 20th, 2025.

From world premieres to unique collaborations, each concert is designed to take the audience on a musical adventure.

Whilst sifting through old drives for B-Roll for another video I found this old overhead shot of me working on a Till Brönner transcription from a few years back. Obviously I don't set up the camera and makes videos like this every time I transcribe something, but I do make a habit of transcribing on a regular basis. As my ear gets stronger, the material I'm transcribing tends to change. It's quite rare these days to be transcribing linear ideas for instance as I've done so much of that over the past three decades. I'm more curious now about harmony and chord voicings, and how those might work for orchestration and arrangement purposes when I'm in writing-mode. As you can hear from this very raw voice note made with my phone, I'm focusing on harmonic development for this new album I'm planning to record in Europe later in the year. I'm working towards recording the trio (possibly Jojo Mayer and Tom Cawley) in the south of Germany, and then hopping over to Sofia to record the New Bulgarian Voices on top of the trio right after. Layering elements of Jazz, European folk music, electronic music, and some of my biggest influences from the classical world like Chopin, Brahms, Messiaen, Mahler, Schubert, Ravel and Rachmaninoff, is something incredibly exciting to me. Knowing I have access to some of the greatest musicians, engineers, and studios out there gives me a lot of hope that no matter what we do in the studio, we will make music we love. And when you add in the possibilities a choir could generate… I start to get a real buzz about the project even when we're so many months away. This is a clip from my daily practice routine that I'm constantly documenting to make sure ideas aren't lost. The one recurring melody throughout this improvised clip could end up being the main theme for a choral arrangement for instance. You just never know. That's why I felt compelled to share these three things today. * The transcription clip represents where I'm coming from and the crazy amount of hours I've put into transcription and ear training over the years. * The audio clip gives you an idea of how I'm constantly making short voice notes of compositional ideas. * And the video clip is looking forward to this year's recording projects as I continue to write as much as possible every day, and get used to a new instrument so I'm in the best place possible when the red light goes on to record.
