Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactStravinsky admitted that Pulcinella wasn't just homage—it was liberation. “It was a backward look, of course,” he said, “but it was a look in the mirror too.” By reworking 18th-century melodies with his own twists, he essentially invented neoclassicism—proving that recycling old material can still create something revolutionary.About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.

Dana Ciocarlie đến với giới yêu nhạc cổ điển tại Việt Nam lần đầu tiên từ 28/11 đến 07/12/2025. Chuyến lưu diễn bắt đầu bằng buổi hòa nhạc tại thủ đô Hà Nội cùng Dàn nhạc Giao hưởng Quốc gia VNSO (Vietnam Symphony Orchestra) ngày 28/11/2025, tiếp theo là 4 buổi độc tấu xoay quanh chủ đề sông nước qua các thành phố : Huế (02/12), Đà Nẵng (03/12), Hồ Chí Minh (06/12) và Đà Lạt (07/12). Đồng thời, bà sẽ tham gia giảng dạy hai buổi Master-class cho sinh viên Học viện Âm nhạc Huế và Nhạc viện TP. Hồ Chí Minh. Dana Ciocarlie trưởng thành từ Học viện Âm nhạc Quốc gia Bucarest, trường Âm nhạc « Alfred Cortot » tại Paris, Nhạc viện Cao học Quốc gia Paris. Từng là học trò của Victoria Melki, Dominique Merlet và từng đoạt các giải quốc tế lừng lẫy tại Zwickau, Zurich, Leipzig. Bà được giới yêu nhạc cổ điển biết đến qua bộ CD tập họp các tác phẩm chọn lọc của Robert Schumann, thu âm trực tiếp từ 15 buổi trình diễn trong suốt 4 năm. Từ năm 2022, bà tiếp tục hành trình thu âm trực tiếp các concertos của Mozart cùng dàn nhạc Open Chamber Orchestra do Yair Benaim chỉ huy. Cho đến nay, bà đã có cho riêng mình hơn 20 đĩa nhạc độc tấu và hợp tấu. Bà thường xuyên được mời lưu diễn qua nhiều quốc gia và hợp tác với nhiều nhạc sĩ, nghệ sĩ từ nhiều nước: Thụy Sĩ, Rumani, Mỹ, Nhật, Trung Hoa, Canada, Bỉ, Hà Lan, Tây Ban Nha,.. Là một giáo viên tận tâm với cách giảng dạy đặc sắc, hiện Dana Ciocarlie là giáo sư nhạc thính phòng và piano tại Nhạc viện Quốc gia Lyon, trường Âm nhạc Alfred Cortot và Nhạc viện Quận 19 tại Paris. Nhiều sinh viên được bà đào tạo đoạt các giải dương cầm hay nhạc thính phòng quốc tế với thứ hạng cao. Theo dòng nước, từ sông Loire đến sông Mê Kông Dự án « Theo dòng chảy, từ sông Loire đến sông Cửu Long » xuất phát từ ý tưởng của hiệp hội Novelette, Dana Ciocarlie cùng Anne Nguyen, một người bạn Việt-Pháp của bà. Chương trình này được Viện Pháp tại Việt Nam và Trung tâm Quốc gia Âm nhạc Pháp tích cực hỗ trợ về mặt nghệ thuật lẫn tài chính. Có trụ sở đặt tại Monteaux, bên bờ sông Loire, hiệp hội Novelette lấy dòng sông làm nguồn cảm hứng đồng thời ưu tư về các vấn đề sinh thái, giáo dục, âm nhạc và thi ca. Còn được gọi là sông Mê Kông/Mékong, Cửu Long vốn giữ vai trò huyết mạch trong đời sống của người Việt Nam, từng nuôi dưỡng hai nền kinh tế và văn hóa của đất nước. « Cửu Long » (chín con rồng) tượng trưng chín cửa sông đổ ra biển và sức mạnh của thiên nhiên lẫn tiềm năng phát triển của các vùng đất ven sông. Tuy nhiên, dòng sông này đã và đang phải đối mặt với những áp lực lớn: biến đổi khí hậu, phát triển thủy điện, tranh đấu xuyên biên giới, nguy cơ sinh thái… Năm 2025 cũng là năm Viện Pháp tại Việt Nam hợp tác với nhiều đơn vị chức năng Việt Nam trong dự án « Sống cùng các dòng sông » bao gồm sông Mê Kông và sông Hồng, nhằm nâng cao và bảo vệ các dòng sông Việt Nam, để ứng phó với những thử thách không ngừng nghỉ về nhiều mặt : kinh tế, xã hội, môi trường (lũ lụt, hạn hán, nước biển ngày càng dâng cao, các hiện tượng thời tiết cực đoan). Dự án kêu gọi sự tham gia của nhiều chuyên gia từ hai phía Pháp – Việt và mở rộng 3 lĩnh vực : khoa học – môi trường, đô thị - quy hoạch, giáo dục – đào tạo. Chương trình này song hành cùng dự án nêu trên, nhân đó tạo điều kiện cho việc kết hợp, giao lưu hai nền văn hóa và âm nhạc Pháp-Việt vốn đã được thai nghén từ 2 năm trước, sau rất nhiều tìm hiểu qua hình ảnh và lịch sử của 2 dòng sông. Dự án sẽ đưa khán thính giả vào một hành trình xuyên thời gian, từ năm 1800 đến nay, xuôi theo dòng nước, từ Loire đến Mê Kông. « Nước » là điểm nhấn nhằm nêu lên các thách thức về sinh thái, kinh tế, chính trị hay văn hóa. Tình bạn Việt - Pháp « Theo dòng chảy » đưa chúng ta hòa nhập vào một hành trình âm nhạc, xây dựng cầu nối và trí tưởng tượng giữa hai dòng sông, như thể chúng ta cùng đến từ một dòng nước, một dòng máu, một nhịp đập, một dân tộc, một đất nước.  Dự án này phản ánh những cam kết đã được đưa ra tại Hội nghị Đại dương Liên Hiệp Quốc vào ngày 5 tháng 6 vừa qua tại thành phố Nice mà nghệ sĩ Dana Ciocarlie cùng một số nghệ sĩ khác được dịp trình diễn trước một cử tọa lên đến 15 ngàn người bao gồm các nghiên cứu gia, nguyên thủ quốc gia, các đại biểu từ hệ thống Liên Hiệp Quốc, các tổ chức liên chính phủ, các tổ chức tài chính, học viện, xã hội dân sự v v… Trong chuyến lưu diễn sắp tới, nghệ sĩ Dana Ciocarlie sẽ độc tấu các tác phẩm của Henri Dutilleux, Francis Poulenc và Emmanuel Chabrier, lấy cảm hứng từ di sản sông Loire, cũng như các tác phẩm đương đại như « Đại dương » của Tôn Thất Tiết và « Ra khơi » của Edith Canat de Chizy, mang âm hưởng nước và thơ. Chương trình sẽ càng thêm phong phú trong bầu không khí du dương và gợi cảm từ các tác phẩm « Khúc dạo đầu » của Élise Bertrand, « Những ngày mưa » của Marie Jaëll, và « Phù du » của Philippe Hersant, lấy cảm hứng từ thơ haiku Nhật Bản. Các tác phẩm tiêu biểu của Ravel, Debussy, Enesco và Fauré sẽ gợi thêm hình ảnh, màu sắc, âm hưởng của nước và thiên nhiên. Trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt, Dana Ciocarlie cho biết bà cảm thấy mình có nhu cầu truyền tải và chia sẻ kinh nghiệm qua việc dạy học. « Chính nhu cầu chia sẻ này đã thúc đẩy tôi đi lưu diễn; trong cuộc đời nghệ sĩ của tôi, khía cạnh này là một trong những phần phong phú nhất, cả về mặt nhân văn lẫn nghề nghiệp, và tôi đặc biệt trân trọng việc gặp gỡ các nhạc sĩ trẻ ở những quốc gia tôi đến thăm. ». Bà còn cho biết tình bạn Việt-Pháp đã cho bà ý tưởng giảng dạy Master-class cho các học sinh trường nhạc ở Huế và Saigon, đồng thời mang âm nhạc về Việt Nam, tập trung vào hai chủ đề chính : vai trò của một nữ nghệ sĩ ủng hộ âm nhạc của các nhà soạn nhạc nữ ngày nay và vai trò của một sứ giả, làm cầu nối giữa hai dòng sông. « Trong ba năm qua, tôi rất may mắn được hợp tác chặt chẽ và thu âm các tác phẩm của hai nữ nhạc sĩ thuộc hai thế hệ khác nhau : Edith Canat de Chizy, một học viện gia, và Elise Bertrand, một nhạc sĩ trẻ. Những khoảnh khắc bên họ đã mang lại cho tôi nhiều cảm hứng và soi sáng thêm sự nghiệp trình diễn của tôi. » Phải nói là dịp gần nhất Việt Nam đón tiếp một nữ nghệ sĩ Pháp là vào năm 2016, Célimène Daudet, tức đã 9 năm kể từ lần đó. Chương trình biểu diễn này sẽ không dừng ở đây. Trong tương lai sẽ có một dự án tương tự được thực hiện ở vùng Centre-Val de Loire, nơi hoạt động của hiệp hội Novelette.

Today, we're unravelling a piece that's as simple as it is spellbinding - one of the most well known and oddly mesmerising compositions of the 20th century. Some call it brilliant, others find it unbearable, and few sit on the fence. And the piece that's at the heart of this marmite reputation? Ravel's Bolero. We explore what makes this 15-minute loop so unforgettable, from its relentless snare drum rhythm to its slow-burning crescendo to determine what it is that keeps listeners hooked (or drives them mad). Plus, things get very heated between Andy and Sue in the end-of-episode quiz…#PitchMeClassicalInstagram: @londonphilharmonicorchestra TikTok: @lporchestraBluesky: @lporchestraFacebook: @londonphilharmonicorchestra YouTube: @londonphilharmonicorchestra Hosted on Acast.

This season, she gave the world premiere of Clarice Assad's “Lilith” concerto, composed for her. Ljova's “Voices” for piano and historical recording was composed for her and commissioned by the Milken Center of American Jewish Music in 2020.Faliks created a one-woman show “Polonaise-Fantasie, Story of a Pianist”, an autobiographical monologue for pianist and actress, premiered in New York's Symphony Space and performed worldwide. A committed chamber musician, she has had notable collaborations with Rachel Barton Pine, Gilbert Kalish, Ron Leonard, Fred Sherry, Ilya Kaler, Colin Carr, Wendy Warner, Clive Greensmith, and Antonio Lysy, among many others.Inna Faliks has been featured on radio and television throughout the world. She co-starred with Downton Abbey's Lesley Nicol in “Admission – One Shilling,” a play for pianist and actor based on the life of the great British pianist, Dame Myra Hess.Her CD releases, Reimagine: Beethoven and Ravel on Navona Records and The Schumann Project Volume 1, on MSR Classics, received rave reviews, and were named to several “best of 2021” lists. With her all-Beethoven CD release on MSR, WTTW called Faliks “High priestess of the piano, concert pianist of the highest order, as dramatic and subtle as a great stage actor.” Sound of Verse, was released in 2009, featuring music of Boris Pasternak, Rachmaninoff and Ravel. “Polonaise-Fantasie, Story of a Pianist” on Delos captures her autobiographical monologue-recital with short piano works from Bach to Carter.Faliks is founder and curator of Music/Words, an award-winning poetry-music series: performances in collaboration with distinguished poets.

She chronicles years of training with teachers and her steady rise in the world of classical music. With a warm and playful style, Faliks helps non-musicians understand the experience of becoming a world-renowned concert pianist. The places she grew up, the books she read, and the poems she memorized as a child all connect to her sound at the piano. The way she hears and shapes a musical phrase illuminates both classical music and elite performance. She explores how a person's humanity makes their art honest and voice unique, and how the lifelong challenge of retaining that voice is fueled by balancing the demands of musicianship and being human. Throughout, Faliks provides powerful insights into the role of music in a world of conflict, change, and hope for a better tomorrow. Learn more about your ad choices.

With a warm and playful style, Faliks helps non-musicians understand the experience of becoming a world-renowned concert pianist. The places she grew up, the books she read, and the poems she memorized as a child all connect to her sound at the piano. The way she hears and shapes a musical phrase illuminates both classical music and elite performance. She explores how a person's humanity makes their art honest and voice unique, and how the lifelong challenge of retaining that voice is fueled by balancing the demands of musicianship and being human. Throughout, Faliks provides powerful insights into the role of music in a world of conflict, change, and hope for a better tomorrow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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!

Today in honor of Bastille Day, I present an episode featuring the late Gabriel Bacquier, who considered himself an “acting singer” rather than a “singing actor.” He made his first mark as a sublime Mozart singer, from there moving into Verdi baritone parts, and finally as a supremely skilled basso buffo. What is less well-known is that he was also a superb recitalist, and in today's bonus episode, I present him in recordings primarily from the early 1960s, but ranging into the late 1970s, which display his surprising skill in mélodie (for it is rare that one singer excels to the extent that Bacquier does in both opera and song). We hear him in live performances and studio recordings of songs of Fauré, Poulenc, Ravel, Duparc, Satie, and Poulenc, as well as examples from such lesser-known lights as Henri Sauguet, Louis Beydts, Maurice Yvain, and Marc Berthomieu. Bacquier's artistry began with the word as the basis for the shape and form of the music, and this approach proves to be equally valid and successful in song as in opera. Plus that, in the early years of his career, the voice was a thing of extraordinary beauty, whether in full-throated expostulation or the merest hint of a whisper. 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 journalist 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.

Send us a textTracy stops by the show to discuss her latest release, Sky Too Wide. We talk about people pleasing, connect over a Helen Reddy song, 'You and Me Against the World', her reimagined song 'Jumping Bean', and so much more.*****Tracy Bonham is a classically trained violinist and pianist turned alternative singer-songwriter who rose to fame in 1996 with her twice GRAMMYTM nominated album, The Burdens of Being Upright (Island Records). This debut album cast Bonham into the global spotlight with MTV fame and major radio airplay with her #1 alternative chart-topping song Mother Mother, an anthem for disgruntled teenagers of all ages. While so many of her songs have been placed in film and tv throughout the decades, you might have most recently heard Mother Mother in Yellow Jackets season 1 episode 2.Over the past 27 years, Bonham's albums and live performances have shown what it is to be an ever- evolving artist. While Bonham sings, she moves from guitar to violin, from violin to piano, and back again. When playing live, her songs from the 90s blend and blur with stylistic changes that she has created over time making her entire repertoire make sense as an entire body of work. She plays the old and new material and even though the songs span thirty years they all continue to be equally relevant.Bonham will be joined by upright bassist Rene Hart (David Amram, James Hunter) and drummer Alvester Garnett (Regina Carter, Abbey Lincoln) and with her new material she connects to something deeper than ever, her true self. Most of the new songs are performed on the piano giving her the chance to lean back to what made her fall in love with music in the first place. Borrowing harmonic structures and beautiful melodies from her favorite classical romantic composers, Bonham stretches herself artistically to combine this rediscovered passion with her unique and quirky songwriting style to create musical alchemy. This purifying process most certainly acts as a vehicle for inner transformation for Bonham. "It's like going back to the spark I had as a very young musician, discovering the beauty of Ravel and DeBussy and reclaiming that spark and everything that has happened after that". Bonham speaks of her current line-up, "Playing with incredible jazz musicians like Rene and Alvester has opened my mind and is now giving me the support I have always needed to spread my wings and fly. I am really enjoying exploring the intersections and overlaps of where classical and jazz meet without excluding my alternative rock sensibilities. These dudes can rock too. The three of us playing together is definitely my happy place".******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

I so enjoyed making this latest episode in my collaboration with G Henle Publishers. I talked with two absolute experts in their fields, Norbert Mülleman and Stefan Knüpfer, all about how to edit Ravel's music, and how to create the Ravel sound on the piano. This episode definitely veers into some very nerdy territory, but Norbert and Stefan are both so brilliant at explaining very high level concepts in a way that anyone can understand, from a person who has never looked at a score to a professional performer. I think everyone will learn a lot from this episode and I don't think you'll ever hear Ravel the same way again after listening! Enjoy!
