Podcast appearances and mentions of Simon Rattle

For those looking for an example of a life lived with both artistic excellence and personal richness, oboist Christoph Hartmann is an inspiring model. A member of the Berlin Philharmonic since 1992, Christoph is not only a world-class orchestral musician but also a sought-after soloist and chamber player. He teaches at the Freiburg Musikhochschule, where he now lives, regularly commuting to Berlin for performances with the Philharmonic.Outside of his musical career, Christoph is deeply involved in endurance sports—he has run around 40 marathons and is an avid cyclist. His passion for biking even led him to create his own line of bicycles, Pasulli bikes, as well as open a bike shop. With a schedule this full and diverse, Tony was eager to learn how Christoph balances it all—and that's exactly what this wide-ranging conversation explores.In Part 1, Christoph reflects on his time with the Berlin Philharmonic, sharing how the orchestra has evolved over the decades and offering insight into the leadership and influence of conductors Claudio Abbado, Simon Rattle, and Kirill Petrenko. He also talks about the experience of performing for the Philharmonic's Digital Concert Hall and whether those streamed performances come with added pressure. The conversation turns to the ever-present topic of reeds and their impact on oboe playing, as well as how he manages his time between teaching in Freiburg and performing in Berlin. Christoph also shares how his interest in long-distance running and biking fits into his musical life, and we wrap up the first part with a look at the Mozart Oboe Concerto video he recorded for the YouTube Symphony.[Subscriber Content] Part 2 begins with a thoughtful discussion about Christoph's personal motto—“live your dreams”—and how he balances that ideal with the practical demands of his life. Given how many passions he juggles, Tony asks how he determines his priorities and maintains focus. Christoph also offers his perspective on the differences between German and American styles of oboe playing. The conversation then travels back to his early days on the instrument, culminating in the story of his audition for the Berlin Philharmonic. The episode concludes with his reflections on why the Mozart Oboe Concerto continues to be an ideal first-round audition piece for aspiring orchestral players.DoricoProfessional music notation and composition software from Steinberg.

Ein glanzvoller Moment für die Musikwelt: Sir Simon Rattle, Chefdirigent des Bayerischen Rundfunks, wurde mit dem renommierten Ernst von Siemens Musikpreis ausgezeichnet. Am Wochenende ist der Preis im Münchner Herkulesssaal verliehen worden und Ulrich Möller-Arnsberg war für BR-KLASSIK dabei.

Simon Rattle ist einer der berühmtesten Dirigenten der Welt und Chef von BR-Chor und BRSO. Eine neue Doku über ihn feiert jetzt Premiere beim DOK.fest in München. Regisseur Benedikt Schulte spricht im Interview über die berührendsten Momente beim Dreh.

Für sein Lebenswerk erhält Simon Rattle den Ernst von Siemens Musikpreis, der mit 250.000 Euro dotiert ist. Nicht zuletzt für das Musikleben in Deutschland war und ist Simon Rattle prägend. Als Chefdirigent der Berliner Philharmoniker erweiterte Rattle das Repertoire des Spitzenorchesters nachhaltig und stieß mit einem großen Tanzprojekt für Berliner Schüler eine neue Art der Vermittlung klassischer Musik an. Danach war Rattle bis 2023 Chef des London Symphony Orchestra, heute leitet er das Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks in München.

In deze twijfelachtige aflevering komen er 2 onderwerpen ter sprake. We trappen af met de eeuwige twijfel en onzekerheid. Prachtig verwoord door de living legend Sir. Simon Rattle. En we kijken naar de imposante carrières van twee legendes van onze eigen kopersectie. Tubaïst Hendrik-Jan Renes heeft nog een handje vol concerten te gaan en dan mag hij aan zijn welverdiende pensioen beginnen. In de Solistenkamer bespreken we onder andere met hem hoe de twijfel zich manifesteerde gedurende zijn carrière. En "Het verhaal uit de zaal" komt deze keer van niemand minder dan oud-collega en hoornist Jos Buurman. Onze Pierre zit op zijn stoel, en we bespreken hoe het toch komt dat die stoel zo heet is. Speelt Jos nog? Komt hij nog wel eens luisteren? Duidelijk wordt dat deze legendes niet voor 1 pensioengat zijn te vangen. Het pareltje is deze keer van Jos Buurman. Hij vertelt dat op tournee met Yuja Wang het toegift hem altijd in de juiste stemming bracht :)Je kan niet tegen de wind in plassen..Jan-GhendrikHet staat er maar 1 keer.Abonneer nu snel op onze podcast en volg ons op:FacebookInstagramTikTokYoutubeRotterdams Philharmonisch Orkest Hosted on Acast.

Mark-Anthony Turnage is a composer of contemporary classical music. Once called “Britain's hippest composer”, he has been in a rock band, got drunk with Francis Bacon, and tackled anything from drug abuse to football in his works. Mark was born in June 1960 in the Thames estuary town of Corringham in Essex. His musical talent was nurtured by his parents and he studied composition at the junior department at the Royal College of Music from aged fourteen. There he met the composer Oliver Knussen who became his tutor, mentor, and life-long friend. His first performed work, Night Dances, written while still at the Royal College, won a prize and heralded Mark's evolution into what one critic calls “one of the best known British composers of his generation, widely admired for his highly personal mixture of energy and elegy, tough and tender”. Greek, his debut opera, a reimagining of the Oedipus myth whose protagonist is a racist, violent and foul-mouthed football hooligan, shocked the establishment, which flinched, but accepted “Turnage, the trouble-maker” as a forceful voice. Over the past four decades he has sustained a distinguished and productive career that has seen him working closely with conductors of the stature of Bernard Haitink, Esa-Pekka Salonen and, particularly, Simon Rattle. He has been attached to prestigious institutions, such as English National Opera and both the BBC and Chicago symphony orchestras, and has written a vast range of music for many different instruments and ensembles. His influences include soul, gospel, all sorts of jazz and the great symphonic works of the repertoire. He has written operas, ballets, concertos, chamber pieces and choral works together with orchestrating a football match. His key works include Three Screaming Popes and Blood on the Floor (both inspired by Francis Bacon paintings, and the latter containing an elegy for his younger brother, Andrew, who died of a drug overdose in 1995), as well as more operas including one about the former Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith. Mark lives in North London with his partner, the opera director, Rachael Hewer. DISC ONE: Symphony No. 9 in D Minor, Op. 125 II. Molto vivace - Presto - Molto vivace – Presto.

Gerade hat er seinen 70. Geburtstag gefeiert. Aber wie fing das alles an mit seiner Musikerkarriere? Ein Kind, das nächtelang vorm Spiegel Shakespeares Richard III. spielt. Ein Teenager, der sich von LKW-Fahrern die Begeisterung für Barockmusik abguckt. Und eine autistische Schwester, die dem kleinen Simon Schönberg-Partituren bringt. Und dann sind da noch sein Schlagzeug und die Plattensammlung seines Vaters. Und natürlich Liverpool, die Stadt der Beatles. Was legt Simon Rattle auf in dieser Stunde? Lassen Sie sich überraschen! Eine Produktion von BR-Klassik aus der Reihe "Meine Musik"

Bevor Simon Rattle im Herbst 2023 beim Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks Chefdirigent wurde, leitete er sechs Jahre lang das London Symphony Orchestra. Zum 70. Geburtstag von Rattle hat das orchestereigene Label einen Londoner Konzertmitschnitt von 2022 veröffentlicht. Das Album bietet einen Querschnitt durch das Schaffen von Kurt Weill.

Für eine langfristige Zusammenarbeit mit Orchestern wird der Dirigent Simon Rattle mit dem Ernst von Siemens Musikpreis 2025 ausgezeichnet. Damit wird auch sein Engagement in der Vermittlungsarbeit geehrt. Pöllmann, Rainer www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit

Patenschaften kann man für alles mögliche haben: Kinder, Tieren und eben auch ganze Orchester. So ist das auch für das Bayerische Landesjugendorchester und dem BRSO. Am 28. Januar kommt das BLJO mit seinen Patenmusikern vom BRSO in den Herkulessaal und spielt unter der Leitung von Sir Simon Rattle. Er sei zwar ein Star, aber fürchten müsse man sich nicht, sagt Rattle selbst.

SynopsisOn today's date in 1946, the octogenarian German composer Richard Strauss conducted the final rehearsal of his latest work, Metamorphosen, a study for 23 strings. Paul Sacher, the Swiss conductor and music patron, had commissioned the work and conducted the public premiere later that day in Zurich.Strauss had begun work on the piece on March 13, 1945, one day after the Vienna State Opera house had been bombed by the Allies. When the Nazis had come to power in 1933, Strauss was at first fêted as the greatest living German composer, but he soon fell out of favor. While his music was not banned, official Nazi support for Strauss eventually fell away, and the fact that Strauss' beloved daughter-in-law was Jewish meant increasing anxiety about her fate and that of his grandchildren as the Nazi's race laws tightened their noose.In a postwar memorandum, Strauss wrote, “The most terrible period of human history has come to an end, the 12-year reign of bestiality, ignorance and anti-culture under the greatest criminals, during which Germany's 2,000 years of cultural evolution met its doom and irreplaceable monuments of architecture and works of art were destroyed.”Music Played in Today's ProgramRichard Strauss (1864-1949) Metamorphosen; Vienna Philharmonic; Simon Rattle, cond.

SynopsisComing of age in the first half of the 20th century were two exceptionally talented children of the wealthy Austrian steel magnate Karl Wittgenstein: Ludwig Wittgenstein became a famous philosopher and Paul Wittgenstein a concert pianist.Paul served in the Austrian army in World War I, and, for a concert pianist, suffered a horrific injury: the loss of his right arm. Undaunted, he rebuilt his career by commissioning and performing works for piano left-hand. The family fortune enabled him to commission the leading composers of his day, including Richard Strauss, Maurice Ravel and Sergei Prokofiev.Unfortunately, even the Wittgenstein fortune couldn't protect the family from the racial laws of Nazi Germany, given the family's Jewish heritage. In 1938, he left for the United States after Austria's Anschluss with the German Reich.In America, he commissioned a concert work from young British expatriate Benjamin Britten, also living in America at the time, and gave the premiere performance of Britten's Diversions for piano left-hand and orchestra on today's date in 1942, with the Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy. Wittgenstein later confessed that of all his commissions, Britten's work came the closest to fulfilling his needs and wishes.Music Played in Today's ProgramBenjamin Britten (1913-1976) Diversions; Peter Donohoe, piano; City of Birmingham Symphony; Simon Rattle, cond.

Seit 2019 dirigiert Simon Rattle jährlich die traditionsreiche Tschechische Philharmonie in Prag und hat dort in den letzten Jahren mit seiner Frau, der mährischen Mezzosopranistin Magdalena Kožená, Volkslieder aus aller Welt eingespielt. Das Album "Folk Songs" ist jetzt erschienen - das muss man hören, meint Fridemann Leipold.

Wie steht es um das geplante Münchner Konzerthaus? Wahlversprechen, Pandemie, Krisen, Denkpause. Aber die Planung ist abgeschlossen. Jetzt nach den Wahlen in Bayern ist es Zeit nachzuhaken. Dafür hat sich Simon Rattle, der neue Chefdirigent von Chor und Symphonieorchester des BR, mit dem Vorstand der Stiftung Konzerthaus München getroffen.

Am 21. September gab Simon Rattle im Münchner Herkulessaal sein Antrittskonzert als neuer Chefdirigent von Chor und Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks. Auf dem Programm stand Joseph Haydns "Schöpfung". Bernhard Neuhoff war für BR-KLASSIK dabei.

Am 21. September leitet Sir Simon Rattle erstmals als Chefdirigent den Chor und das Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks. Auf den Briten warten in München große Aufgaben. Und nicht nur am Pult. Wir haben ihn getroffen.

Mit dem Saisonauftakt startet auch die Münchner musica viva. Im Gespräch mit BR-KLASSIK verrät der künstlerische Leiter Winrich Hopp, was er sich von Simon Rattle als neuen Chefdirigenten des Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks erhofft und wie sich das Programm von musica viva gestaltet.

Jess Gillam and baritone James Newby swap some of their favourite tracks and chat about their lives in music. James - who was one of Radio 3's New Generation Artists - is one of the country's most exciting young baritones and performs all around Europe in everything from contemporary opera to intimate song recitals. His music picks include a choral piece by Howells that changed the direction of his life and catapulted him into a music career and the stunning voices of Celeste and Bryn Terfel. Meanwhile, Jess picks a stunner of a voice of her own in Sarah Vaughan, alongside the energy of John Adams and a tender ballad for violin and piano by Donald Grant.

Jess Gillam meets violinist Tessa Lark to swap some of their favourite music. Tessa is an in-demand classical concert violinist but growing up in Kentucky, she's equally inspired by bluegrass music and American folk styles and so blends the two influences in a lot of her work.

One of the great ways to learn how music works is to study written scores.  There are different ways to approach this but, in this episode, we're mainly talking about orchestral scores and improving the knowledge of harmonies, orchestration, development of melodic material, ear training, and more all directly from existing pieces of music from the composers themselves. Our guest is Andrew Callo, a composer and arranger who has done a lot of work with the Air Force Band and a number of other concert works.  We talk about the benefits of score study to improving the ability to compose and arrange music. Music Excerpts in this episode are: (18:10) Beethoven: Symphony No. 1  (mvt I)  - performed by the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Herbert Von Karajan (48:42) Holst: The Planets (Mars) - Berlin Philharmonic; Simon Rattle (55:53) R.

Jess meets up with Love Ssega to swap some of their favourite music. A founding songwriter and vocalist of Clean Bandit, Love Ssega is hugely in demand for his collaborative work across genres from pop to visual art. He is currently the Philharmonia's artist in residence. Ssega came with some truly epic Elgar played by Sheku Kanneh Mason, a serious ear worm of an opera chorus by Verdi, and introduced Jess to the incredible voice of Alice Smith (she's been listening to her on loop since). Meanwhile Jess played Ssega Vivaldi arranged by Max Richter, some 12th century vocal music by Hildegard von Bingen, and an elegy to the environment by Marvin Gaye.
