Extractions: We all go to live concerts hoping for the magic. You know it when you hear it, when the music lifts itself into another sphere, when the communication between the performers and the audience slips into another gear, when breathtaking beauty occurs before our very ears. It happened Thursday evening at the Aspen Music Festival in the slow movement of the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2. Conductor David Zinman , the festival's music director, drew preternaturally hushed playing from the Aspen Festival Orchestra, laying down the merest whisper of chords. Cellist Richard Weiss, who spends most of the year as first assistant principal for the Cleveland Orchestra, spun out the long solo in a magnificent arc while pianist Yefim Bronfman wove a spell of perfect embroidery around it.

PIANOnews Leseprobe Translate this page Der pianist yefim bronfman. Von Carsten Dürer. Er macht sich nichtzu viele Gedanken über die Dinge, die nicht die Musik betreffen. http://www.pianonews.de/leseprobeaktuell9.htm
Extractions: Der Pianist Yefim Bronfman Er macht sich nicht zu viele Gedanken über die Dinge, die nicht die Musik betreffen. Und genau dies macht Yefim Bronfman so sympathisch. Der amerikanische Pianist russischer Abstammung gilt heute als meistbeschäftigter Pianist weltweit. In Deutschland ist sein Name noch immer nicht so bekannt, wie er es sein sollte. Denn abgesehen davon, dass Bronfman mit den größten und berühmtesten Musikern konzertiert und von den bekanntesten Orchestern begleitet wird, ist er in den USA ein absoluter Star. Wir trafen ihn kurz vor einigen Konzerten in Berlin, der Stadt in Deutschland, in der er am häufigsten spielt. Was er über das Geschäft mit der Musik, über seine Schallplatteneinspielungen und über das Zusammenspiel mit anderen Musikern denkt, lesen Sie in diesem Interview. Er sieht ein wenig müde aus. Bronfman ist erst zwei Tage, bevor wir ihn im Chefdirigentenzimmer der Berliner Philharmonie treffen (dem Zimmer, in dem sich normalerweise Simon Rattle tummelt), aus den USA in Deutschland gelandet und hat direkt das Eröffnungskonzert des Klavierfestival Ruhr gespielt. Drei Tage später stehen nun drei Konzerte in der Berliner Philharmonie an. Doch das ist der große und korpulente Pianist gewohnt, ihn treibt es beständig für die Musik durch die Welt und die Säle in allen Ländern. Warum aber ist er in Deutschland immer noch so unbekannt? Kaum verständlich, hat er doch bereits 1980 sein Debüt mit dem Israel Symphony Orchestra in München gegeben. Seither ist er doch in jedem Jahr in Deutschland zu hören? Nein, nicht jedes Jahr, gibt er stirnrunzelnd zu bedenken.

Sony Classical has recently released a CD with music of Emanuel Axs and Yevim Bronfmans two piano program. Emanuel Ax Devoted to chamber music literature, Mr. Ax regularly collaborates with such artists as Young Uck Kim, Cho-Liang Lin, Yo-Yo Ma, Peter Serkin, Isaac Stern and Jaime Laredo. He has made a series of acclaimed recordings with Mr. Ma, and as a duo they have won three Grammy awards for the Beethoven and Brahms sonatas for cello and piano. The pair has also teamed with Richard Stoltzman for a Grammy award-winning album of clarinet trios and with Pamela Frank, Rebecca Young and Edgar Meyer for the Schubert Trout Quintet. The Ax-Stern-Laredo-Ma Quartet has toured and recorded extensively in recent seasons, including piano quartets of Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorak, Fauré, Mozart and Schumann for Sony Classical. Yefim Bronfman This past summer featured appearances at the BBC Proms and at the Aspen, Bad Kissingen, Ravinia, Salzburg and Tanglewood festivals, as well as a series of concerts in the Far East. Last season Mr. Bronfman again appeared with the orchestras of Baltimore, Boston, Cincinnati, Dallas, Los Angeles, Minnesota, New York, Pittsburgh, Seattle and Toronto, as well as the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, the NDR Symphony Orchestra of Hamburg, the Maggio Musicale Orchestra of Florence, the NHK Symphony of Tokyo and the Philharmonia Orchestra of London.

Extractions: "Then there's the drama that he brings to it, one of the most important elements making Beethoven a very special composer," he adds. "Also, this sonata has one of the best interplays between violin and piano, sounding at times like a conversation between two lovers we're eavesdropping on."

Extractions: Monday, March 10, 2003 Setting aside briefly the exquisite reading of Henri Dutilleux's spellbinding quartet, the most thrilling thing about the Tokyo String Quartet's concert Saturday was that the group sounded like the Tokyo String Quartet. This is news. The Tokyo quartet had always placed its biggest aesthetic bet on a remarkably homogenous and sumptuous tonal blend, instrumental finesse and a tasteful interpretive flair. When a new first violinist was needed in 1996, the group gambled on Mikhail Kopelman, hoping his Slavic pedigree might inject new energy and ideas into the dialogue. But a string quartet is a fragile balance of personalities, and the risk never paid off. Kopelman proved inconsistent and willful. The quartet lost its polished veneer without leveraging any compensatory artistry. Canadian Martin Beaver replaced Kopelman last year, joining violinist Kikuei Ikeda, violist Kazuhide Isomura and cellist Clive Greensmith.

Extractions: Bo Skovhus, baritone - , and Donald Runnicles, piano - November 10, 2003 The internationally renowned Danish baritone, Bo Skovhus, is in demand by all the world's opera houses. At the Vienna Opera, he often collaborates with conductor Donald Runnicles. Their Billy Budd, with Skovhus in the title role, was the high point of the 2002 Vienna season. According to the European press, he is the hottest Don Giovanni ever. His stunningly rich voice is equally suited to lieder and opera. His recent recordings of the Schubert cycles are now the standards by which all newcomers will be judged. The Skampa Quartet - November 17, 2003 David Finckel, cello , and Wu Han, piano December 16, 2003 David Finkel has appeared here as the cellist of the Emerson String Quartet. Great as the Emerson is, many music lovers wish he would devote his time primarily as the sonata partner of his wife, the extraordinary Taiwanese pianist, Wu Han. Here is collaborative energy unique on the concert stage today. They say they have been finishing each other's sentences, musical and otherwise, for many years. The tireless duo also leads the Music@Menlo summer festival, and teaches at the Aspen Festival, the Isaac Stern Chamber Music Workshop in New York, and the Jerusalem Music Center. This is our Beethoven's birthday concert, and their very generous program includes most of Beethoven's works for cello and piano.
