Andrew Constantine and I have known each other for over 30 years, and catching up with him was brilliant. It was a lovely warm chat with someone who really thinks long and hard about what we do as conductors. We talk very frankly about the cultural differences between the US and the UK, I discover which competition he thought he should have won, and he uses a wonderful metaphor to describe the difference between Valery Gergiev and Yuri Temirkanov!

You were to refer to our article “French stars Omar Sy and Eva Green part of 2024 Cannes Film Festival jury”, and send in the answer to these questions: What is the name of that last-minute film, and what is the name and nationality of the director?The answer is, to quote our article: “There have been late additions to the festival's line-up in recent days, including The Seed of the Sacred Fig by Iranian director Mohammad Rasoulof, who has faced prison time for criticising the government. It is unclear if he will be able to attend the festival.”He was able to attend the festival – as we reported a few days later, Rasoulof left Iran without official permission, after being sentenced to eight years in prison and flogging for national security crimes.As he said at the time: “I had to choose between prison and leaving Iran. With a heavy heart, I chose exile.”Rasoulof, 52, is already known for There is No Evil, which won the top prize at the Berlin Film Festival four years ago, and for A Man of Integrity, highly praised at Cannes in 2018 - but which resulted in a string of travel restrictions, prison sentences and film-making bans in Iran. In 2023 he was unable to take up an invitation to join the Cannes competition jury because he was under detention.The Seed of the Sacred Fig not only won the longest-standing ovation at this year's festival – 12 minutes! – but it won the Fipresci award from the jury of the International Federation of Film Critics, a special award given at international film festivals.  In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: “What book made the greatest difference in your life, and how?”Do you have a bonus question idea?

Annemieke Bosman in gesprek met acteur Dick van den Toorn en Aike Dirkzwager. Dimitri Sjostakovitsj, de wereldberoemde Russische componist, leeft in voortdurende angst. Moet hij de wensen van Stalin inwilligen óf verslag doen van zijn schrikbewind en tirannie? Laat hij zich gebruiken door de dictator óf is hij juist de dissident die aan de kant van het volk staat?  Het dilemma van Sjostakovitsj, die leefde en werkte tijdens het Stalinistische bewind, is Faustiaans te noemen: hoe verhoudt zijn artistieke integriteit zich tot de dictatoriale machthebber? De vergelijking van Stalin met Poetin ligt voor de hand. In deze tijd zou Sjostakovitsj waarschijnlijk gecanceld worden, zoals gebeurd is met de Russische dirigent Valery Gergiev. Maar is dat terecht? Oordelen we niet te snel? Te heftig? Vanuit onze luxepositie van vrijheid en democratie?  De voorstelling De kwestie Sjostakovitsj  van BEER Muziektheater gaat over de menselijke stem, in de spagaat van ambitie en integriteit versus onderdrukking en opportunisme. Maar uiteindelijk ook over ons, het publiek en onze wens aan de goede kant van de geschiedenis te staan. In De kwestie Sjostakovitsj  kruipt Dick van den Toorn in de rol van Sjostakovitsj. René Groothof en Yari van der Linden vertolken alle rollen daaromheen. Zij excelleren alle drie in een absurde, geestige, en vertellende speelstijl met het vermogen het publiek diep te raken. Aike Dirkzwager regisseert de voorstelling. De tekst is van de onlangs overleden theatermaker Helmert Woudenberg.

In this first part of a two-part episode, we look at the variety of ways that John Williams creates the musical world of Harry Potter. From school songs to Quidditch, from dragons to goblins, from ghosts to moving staircases, John Williams combines the rich late-romantic orchestral sound with the slightly odd notes resembling 20th century composers such as Stravinsky and Prokofiev to create a world that seems both familiar and different. He also expands in the second and third film from celeste and choir to adding instruments from the Baroque and Renaissance, combining new sounds with old. This episode focuses solely on the first three movies composed by John Williams.Host: Ruth MudgeMusic included in podcast:"The Arrival of Baby Harry" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"The Sorcerer's Apprentice" - The Sorcerer's Apprentice, performed by the Berlin Philharmonic & James Levine, music by Paul Dukas, 1987"Diagon Alley/The Gringotts Vault" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Act 1, Scene III, The Street Awakens" - Romeo & Juliet, Op. 64, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra & Valery Gergiev, music by Sergei Prokofiev, 2010"Platform Nine-and-three-quarters/The Journey to Hogwarts" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Hogwarts Forever!/The Moving Stairs" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Entry into the Great Hall/The Banquet" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"The Quidditch Match" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Christmas at Hogwarts" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Olympic Fanfare and Theme" - Celebrating John Williams (Live at Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles 2019), performed by Los Angeles Philharmonic & Gustavo Dudamel, music by John Williams, 2019"The Norwegian Ridgeback/A Change of Seasons" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Fawkes is Reborn" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Dueling the Basilisk" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Meeting Aragog" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Moaning Myrtle" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Knockturn Alley" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Pavana la Bataglia (Crumhorns & Ensemble)" - Dictionary of Medieval & Renaissance Instruments, performed by Christian Mendoza & Orchestra Antiqua Musica, music by Anonymous, 2002"Double Trouble" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Secrets of the Castle" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"The Portrait Gallery" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Quidditch, Third Year" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Apparition on the...

Synopsis It's strange to read the doubts Tchaikovsky expressed in letters about many of his greatest musical works, which he first would dismiss as failures, only to change his mind completely a few weeks later. Take, for example, his ballet The Nutcracker, which had its premiere performance on this day in 1892 at the Mariinsky Theater in St. Petersburg. Tchaikovsky described working on the ballet as a "dread-inspiring, feverish nightmare, so abominable that I don't think I have the strength to put it into words." At the time, Tchaikovsky was MUCH more optimistic about an opera he was writing titled Yolanta—only to abruptly changed his mind, writing "Now I think that the ballet is good and the opera nothing special." This time, Tchaikovsky got it right—although initially the opera DID prove more popular than the ballet. Another—and deliberately nightmarish—Russian composition had its first performance on this same day 70 years later. This was the Symphony No. 13 by Dmitri Shostakovich, subtitled Babi Yar, based on poems of Yevgeny Yevtushenko. This choral symphony was first heard on today's date in 1962 at the Moscow Conservatory, but was quickly banned by the Soviet authorities. Its title poem, Babi Yar, called attention to Soviet indifference to the Holocaust and persistent anti-Semitism in Soviet society. Yevtushenko later softened these lines so the symphony could be performed in the U.S.S.R.

Synopsis Two concert overtures – one very famous and one not so famous – had their premiere performances on today's date. In 1956, this music by British composer Sir Arthur Bliss provided a festive opening to that year's Edinburgh Festival of Music and Drama. The Edinburgh Festival Overture is a salute to Scotland's premiere arts festival, presented annually in late summer and early fall since 1947. Also premiered on today's date was Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture," commissioned for an international Exhibition of Industry and the Arts in Moscow, and first played at an all-Tchaikovsky concert on today's date in 1882. As pleased as Tchaikovsky was that his music was to be presented at the Exhibition, he was definitely not enthusiastic about the commission. "There is nothing less to my liking," he wrote, "than composing for the sake of some festival. What, for instance, can you write on the occasion of the opening of an exhibition except banalities and generally noisy passages?" On top of all that, the commission called for something (quote) "with a hint of church music, which must certainly be Orthodox." Glumly, Tchaikovsky to work, writing to another friend: "I don't think it has any serious merits, and I shouldn't be at all surprised and offended if you find that it is in a style unsuitable for symphony concerts." Ah, Peter Ilyich – you certainly got that one wrong! Music Played in Today's Program Sir Arthur Bliss (1891-1975) –Edinburgh Overture (City of Birmingham Symphony; Vernon Handley, cond.)

Synopsis The eastern Russian city of Kuibyshev might seem an unlikely site for an important symphonic premiere, but from 1941 to 1943, Kuibyshev was the temporary capital of the Soviet Union. As German and Finnish troops advanced from the west, the Russian government and its cultural institutions moved east. Among the refugees relocated to Kuibyshev were the Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra from Moscow and the composer Dimitri Shostakovich from Leningrad. And so, on today's date in 1942, Kuibyshev was the venue for the world premiere of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7, subtitled “Leningrad.” A microfilm copy of the new score was flown to Tehran, then transported by car to Cairo, then flown to Brazil for transfer by the U.S. Navy to New York, where the American premiere was given on July 19, 1942, by the NBC Symphony under Arturo Toscanini. Less than a month later, on August 9, 1942, the “Leningrad” symphony was even performed in the besieged and starving city of Leningrad. The few musicians still capable of performing were given extra rations to keep up their strength, and, to ensure a measure of quiet during their performance, a Russian artillery commander ordered an intensive artillery bombardment on the enemy troops surrounding the city.

Se em tempos de paz a cultura atua muitas vezes como moeda diplomática, o famoso soft power, em tempos de guerra seu papel assume tons mais sombrios, como mostram as ações movidas pelos atores culturais na França, após a invasão da Ucrânia. Se a guerra atualmente é híbrida, não há combatentes melhores que os artistas, experts em construir narrativas e convocar emoções. Da Bienal de Veneza ao Carnegie Hall, passando pela Filarmônica de Paris, o mundo ocidental manda seu recado à Rússia. Na França, da Ópera Nacional de Paris ao Festival de Avignon, muitas instituições culturais expressaram seu apoio "ao povo e aos artistas ucranianos" nos últimos dias. Mas artistas ucranianos que vivem na França também estão se mobilizando. É o caso, por exemplo, do famoso Quarteto Elysée, que inclui o violinista ucraniano Andrei Malakhov. Com seu grupo, ele decidiu gravar uma peça do repertório de um jovem compositor ucraniano, conforme contou em entrevista à RFI: "A iniciativa seria gravar um quarteto de cordas composto por o compositor e violonista ucraniano, Ilia Bondarenko, que tem 20 anos e está atualmente sob os bombardeios em Kiev", diz. "É uma música muito poderosa e sombria, e que traz um elemento inédito e precursor - os alarmes antiaéreos em primeiro plano", revela Malakhov. "Primeiro, vamos divulgar um vídeo tocando o quarteto para apoiá-lo, mas também estamos preparando, com músicos ucranianos e franceses e com o apoio da comunidade ucraniana na França, um concerto solidário para ajudar a Ucrânia, será provalemente na subprefeitura do 15° distrito de Paris, no dia 21 de março. E buscamos eventualmente também uma segunda data", declarou o músico. Nesta sexta-feira, 4 de março, a partir das 20h pelo horário da França, os canais de TV e rádio Culturebox e France Culture, que fazem parte do serviço público francês, farão uma vigília de cinco horas de apoio à Ucrânia no Teatro Nacional da Dança, o Palais de Chaillot, em Paris, que será transmitida ao vivo pela internet. Combate às fake news e acolhimento de artistas O cineasta ucraniano Igor Minaiev, 68 anos, que vive em Paris há vários anos, conversou com a RFI sobre sua vida depois da invasão, pontuada por telefonemas para seus amigos em Kiev e Kharkiv. "Todo dia de manhã eu telefono ou escrevo para todo mundo, começo por Kiev, depois Karkhiv e na sequência Odessa, para ficar por dentro de onde eles estão, e sobretudo como passaram a noite, que é o período mais angustiante", relata o diretor. "Tento trocar informações, porque existem muitas fake news circulando, então tento saber ao certo como as coisas estão acontecendo na realidade, se eles têm o que comer, se têm eletricidade, água, aquecimento", diz Minaiev. "Há alguns ucranianos que descem para dormir nos abrigos anti-bombardeios, sobretudo em Kiev. Outros que dizem que não descem mais, dormem no corredor, no banheiro", conta o cineasta. "Também repasso informações que temos aqui no Ocidente. Para eles é um incentivo saber que praticamente todos os veículos de imprensa na França falam deles o tempo todo e que não estão abandonados. Não poderíamos imaginar essa ajuda da Europa e do resto do mundo. Passamos por tantas coisas, e agora, todo mundo está conosco", vibra. Lucie Berelowitsch, diretora do Centro Nacional de Teatro da Normandia, falou sobre o desejo de ajudar os artistas na Ucrânia. "Uma parte dos artistas ucranianos ficou no país e se mobiliza de todas as maneiras possíveis, tomando a palavra e organizando redes de ajuda entre eles. Hoje em dia a questão não é saber que hospitalidade poderemos lhes oferecer, mas como ajudá-los na Ucrânia", sublinha a diretora. "Estamos criando redes de solidariedade com a Polônia e a Romênia para que possamos ajudar de maneira rápida no acolhimento dos artistas. Eles dizem que sentem uma mobilização muito grande por parte da Europa e que isso é muito importante para eles. Eles dizem sentir a necessidade de lutar para continuarem livres, simplesmente", afirma Berelowitsch. Cancelamento Mas não só de solidariedade que a guerra cultural é feita. Na França, o nome Valery Gergiev é o emblema de uma verdadeira ruptura cultural. O maestro russo pró-Putin, ao mesmo tempo diretor geral do prestigioso Teatro Mariinsky em São Petersburgo e até então um dos maestros mais procurados do mundo, foi ostracizado e está enfrentando uma onda de cancelamentos como um sinal de "solidariedade com o povo ucraniano". Depois do Carnegie Hall em Nova Iorque e dos prestigiosos festivais suíços em Verbier e Lucerna, a Filarmônica de Paris cancelou a presença de Gergiev, agendada para 9 e 10 de abril. Na Bienal de Veneza deste ano não foi diferente: a equipe do pavilhão ucraniano cancelou sua participação, ao mesmo tempo em que convocou no Instagram "a comunidade artística internacional a usar toda nossa influência para deter a invasão russa da Ucrânia". Uma mensagem que foi ouvida. Na segunda-feira 28 de fevereiro, a equipe russa em Veneza renunciou à sua participação no evento, anunciando que o pavilhão russo permaneceria fechado na abertura da Bienal em abril, para não servir de justificativa para uma invasão militar. Assista a mensagem das artistas ucranianas do cabaré punk Dakh Daughters:

Tras el ataque ruso contra Ucrania, el mundo cultural multiplica sus alertas y su repudio contra la política de Vladimir Putin. Varias iniciativas han nacido en todo el mundo. Entre los conciertos e iniciativas artísticas contra la invasión rusa y por el regreso de la paz, también hubo renuncias, despedidas de los artistas rusos cercanos al líder ruso. Es el caso de Valery Gergiev, que fue despedido por no haberse desligado de la política de Vladimir Putin. Nueva York y París anularon sus prestaciones previstas en los próximos meses en esas ciudades, convirtiendo el ex jefe de la Orquesta Filarmónica de Múnich y cercano de Putin en el símbolo del quiebre cultural con Moscú en tiempos de guerra. Al interior de Rusia, se registró una ola de fuertes gestos de protesta. Peticiones inéditas han florecido, firmadas por miles de artistas. Elena Kovalskaia, directora del centro cultura Vsevolod Meyerhold dimitió, seguida por Mindaugas Karbauskis, director del teatro Maiakovski entre los más notorios. Por su parte, el equipo del Teatro de Arte de Moscú remplazó su emblema tradicional por una paloma de la Paz y los colores de la bandera de Ucrania. El rapero ruso más popular Oxxxymiron también denunció en las redes sociales un “crimen” cometido por el Kremlin. En Francia Entre los franceses, se destaca Laurent Hilaire, director de la tropa del ballet del Teatro Académico Musical Stanislavski de Moscú, quien dimitió por estar en contra de la guerra en Ucrania. Aquí en Franica, Lucie Berelowitsch, directora del Centro Dramático Nacional de Normandía-Vire, lanzó una iniciativa para que los artistas se movilicen y se reciba a los artistas refugiados de Ucrania.   A raíz de esas reacciones, surgió el debate sobre si se debe boicotear la obra de los artistas rusos, un debate algo peligroso para la cultura y la paz, según algunos artistas.

Gestern wurde an der Wiener Staatsoper Peter Iljitsch Tschaikowskys „Pique Dame“ in der Inszenierung von Vera Nemirova wieder aufgenommen. radio klassik Stephansdom Opernexperte Richard Schmitz war auch diesmal wieder dabei. Die Premiere war im Oktober 2007 und hat sich im Repertoire bis 2015 gehalten. Damals sangen Martina Serafin und Neil Shicoff das Liebespaar, Seiji Ozawa hat dirigiert. Das war gestern ein packender unsentimentaler Tschaikowsky. Valery Gergiev ist im russischen Repertoire authentisch. Spannend wurde es erst nach der Pause, da kamen auch die Sängerinnen und Sänger besser in Fahrt. Wendepunkt war der Monolog der Gräfin. Nicht zu Unrecht stellt sie fest: „Was ist das für eine Welt! Die können sich nicht einmal amüsieren.“ Olga Borodina macht mit eindringlichen Pianomelismen und mit herrischen Befehlen viele ihrer Vorgängerinnen in dieser Rolle vergessen. Elena Guseva kann aus der Lisa kein unschuldiges junges Mädchen machen; aber sie bewältigt die Partie mit Anstand. Ihre Arie erntet Szenenapplaus. Ihr geliebter Hermann ist ja nicht gerade ein Sympathieträger. Da ist es zu akzeptieren, dass er keine schöne Stimme hat. Die manische Spielsucht in den letzten Szenen geraten deshalb dramatisch und glaubwürdig. Fürst Jeletzki Boris Pinkhasovich begeistert mit seiner Arie das Publikum. Das übrige Ensemble sorgte für einen gelungenen Ablauf des Abends. Vera Nemirovas Regie hat ihre Repertoiretauglichkeit ja schon bewiesen. Die immer noch üblichen Tricks, wie Sopranistin bloßfüßig im Negligé oder Transgenderfiguren in den Tanzszenen regen heute niemanden mehr sonderlich auf. Auch dass sich Lisa nicht in die Newa stürzt sondern in ein Meer von Regenschirmen ist nicht mehr bemerkenswert. Im ersten Bild geht die wunderbare Frühlingsmusik von Tschaikowsky im Schlafsaal eines Kinderinternats vollkommen unter. Enttäuschend nach wie vor das Einheitsbühnenbild von Johannes Leiacker und die Kostüme von Marie-Luise Strandt. Es ist zu erwarten, dass in den Folgevorstellungen nicht nur der Chor und das Staatsopernorchester schon in den ersten drei Bildern zu Hochform auflaufen, sondern auch die Solisten auch vor der Pause ihre Qualitäten ausspielen. Herzlicher Applaus, der aus Gründen der Sperrstunde durch das Senken des Vorhanges verkürzt wurde.. Wertnote: 7,9/10 Punkten

Peter Quantrill, who reviewed both of these sets in latest edition of Gramophone joins me this week to assess the relationship between these composers, as well as bringing his perspective on how performance practices, and his own personal relationship to these composers have changed over the years.Harriet Smith returns to the show to discuss some of her favourite pianists, drawing upon 85 years of piano recordings from the earliest recorded ivory tinklers to the most recent trailblazers.
