Extractions: Daniel Martyn Lewis performed an all-Bach program for his North American premiere. The Formal Opening Night Gala concert featured the spectacular Russian pianist Andrei Gavrilov , returning for his 25th anniversary season, in a stirring concert of Bach and Chopin. Gold medalist of the famed Tchaikovsky Competition, Gavrilov was one of the first young Russians to appear in America. Illustrious piano performances were likewise presented by Agustin Anievas John Bayless Bernadene Blaha Victor Borge Mirian Conti Kevin Fitz-Gerald Kemal Gekic Carlo Grante Alain Jacquon Francine Kay Piers Lane Valentina Lisitsa Hamish Milne Pedja Muzijevic Juana Zayas Thomas Hrynkiw , and Yamaha artists Frederic Chiu and Anne-Marie McDermott "Every year seems to be another knock-out. Yamaha has been a major sponsor of the Newport Music Festival since 1987. I can't imagine doing this festival without them," Malkovich admits. "Yamaha has been so helpful. The pianos always arrive on time, properly tuned, and with 64 concerts spread over 17 days, that's extremely important to us. Logistically, it was flawless, and much of that was due to the cooperation of Yamaha." John Bayless at The Breakers The Newport Music Festival, long synonymous with outstanding classical performances in a Rhode Island community renowned for seaside elegance, garnered yet another accolade last February. For the second consecutive year, it was chosen by Cadogan Press as one of "America's Elite 1000 - The Ultimate List," placing Newport in company with just 19 other national events including the Academy Awards, the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament, and The Metropolitan Opera.
Extractions: May 07, 2004 LAS VEGAS SUN It started with a bang, a Fourth of July impromptu pops concert in Summerlin to replace the faltering Nevada Symphony Orchestra.

The program features Dimitry Kabalevsky's "Colas Brugnon Overture," Sergei Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" (featuring Lisitsa) and Peter Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4. A graduate of Kiev Conservatory, Lisitsa moved to the United States in 1992 and often performs as a duo with husband Alexei Kuznetsoff. She first performed at age 4 and was awarded a scholarship at age 7 to study at Kiev Conservatory. More recently she has been developing her solo career. The concert will be at 8 p.m. Saturday at Artemus Ham Hall. Tickets are $25, $40, $60. For more information, call 895-2787.

Tracy Woodard > Violin Blog Tracy Woodard's Violin Blog Posted on Jun. 1, 2004 at 2:27 PM (MST) Just got back from the Greenville Symphony audition. Didn't get the contract, but my friend Pepina did, though she won't be able to work past December since that's when her work permit runs out. Blah. I was the last to play, came right after her. Played my concerto (well, got as far as the exposition). The conductor heard two bars of my first and only excerpt before shouting, "Go back. Again, faster." Played it again, and that was it for me. This is why I signed up to play first at my last audition. It was nice to be completely relaxed. While waiting outside the stage, I sat in a chair fingering some Bach presto, to keep my left hand warm, and I nearly fell asleep in my chin rest. I only made one mistake in my playing, and it was something I hadn't even considered during my practice (yeah, ya know, that thing called subdividing your rests). Link to this item E-mail this item

Extractions: The end of an era begins this summer for the Grant Park Music Festival. The season of 29 free concerts that opens June 11 and runs through Aug. 16 will close out nearly seven decades of festival performances in the southern precincts of Grant Park. After 42 years in a "temporary" band shell left over from the 1933 World's Fair near 11th Street, and since 1978 in its current home, the Petrillo Music Shell, at Jackson and Columbus, the Grant Park Symphony and Chorus will move farther north next year. Next season's concerts will be held in Millennium Park, in the Frank Gehry-designed music pavilion being built east of Michigan near Randolph. Work is on schedule, said James W. Palermo, the music festival's artistic and general director, and festival staff should be able to move into new offices in the Music and Dance Theater adjacent to the outdoor pavilion in September. Founded by the Chicago Park District and co-presented by the city's Cultural Affairs Department, the festival is consolidating its resources this summer, though Palermo says its budget hasn't been unduly impacted by tough economic times. For years, Grant Park's basic 10-week schedule called for two sets of programs each week, one performed Wednesday and Friday, the second offered on Saturday and Sunday. Sunday concerts have dwindled in recent years, and none is scheduled this summer.
Donatella Flick Conducting Competition - News and, most recently, VAI Audio has issued a CD of a live recital from the NewportMusic Festival with Ms. Haendel accompanied by pianist valentina lisitsa. http://www.conducting.org/news.htm
Extractions: The Prize Information Programme Requirements ... News Further news about the competition will be published on this page. The fifth member of the jury for the 2004 competition is to be violinist Ida Haendel Diapason d'or are, invariably, the touchstones by which all others are judged. In a review of Ida Haendel's performance of the Elgar Violin Concerto, Nicholas Kenyon of The Times of London wrote: "If there is a more sheerly musical violinist before the public today than Ida Haendel, I have yet to hear him or her. Haendel's qualities - an unobtrusively precise sense of style, a glorious freedom of phrasing, an acute feeling for the large-scale direction of a piece - are not ones particularly prized these days, when cold precision and bar-to-bar flashiness are idolized." Critic Richard Dyer of the Boston Globe cogently summed up the artistry of Ida Haendel in a recent review of her performance of the Beethoven Violin Concerto with the Boston Symphony Orchestra: "Fresh, youthful inspiration still animates everything Haendel does; she knows it all, but she is still out on a voyage of discovery. She plays the notes with such simplicity, directness and emotional force that they tear your heart out." Ida Haendel has recorded primarily for the EMI, Decca and Testament labels. Videos of her performances are available from Video Artists International, and, most recently, VAI Audio has issued a CD of a live recital from the Newport Music Festival with Ms. Haendel accompanied by pianist Valentina Lisitsa.
Extractions: Cultural Fund's concert series presents Khoma, Bagratuni and Vynnytsky by Yaro Bihun WASHINGTON - Cellists Natalia Khoma and Suren Bagratuni and pianist Volodymyr Vynnytsky have performed in the capital area before. November 16, however, was the first time the three joined forces here on the same stage, and from the outset, the audience at the Lyceum, in Alexandria, Va., sensed this would be something special. And it was. After establishing their ensemble by opening the second concert in The Washington Group Cultural Fund's 2003-2004 series with George Frederick Handel's Sonata for two cellos and piano in G minor, Ms. Khoma and Mr. Vynnytsky took over the first half of the program with a diverse selection of compositions that included César Franck's Sonata in A major, Mykola Lysenko's elegy "Sum", and "Lost Tango," a piece for cello and piano written by Mr. Vynnytsky himself. Mr. Vynnytsky has been a featured performer in a number of concerts sponsored by the TWG Cultural Fund over the past few years; indeed, three years ago he shared the stage with Ms. Khoma in one of those concerts. This was the first time, however, that the Washington area audience was treated to a performance of one of his own compositions. Both Mr. Vynnytsky and Ms. Khoma began their music studies in Lviv, and, according to the normal progression in Soviet times, they moved on to Moscow. Mr. Bagratuni's career path was similar, except that it began in Yerevan, Armenia. Later, with numerous prizes in international competitions and noteworthy performances under their belts, all three would settle in the United States, where they now perform, teach and, in other ways, are active in the performing arts.
Untitled Document Hofmann was, to say the least, a controversial pianist; but it would fresh, highwiredebut of husband-and-wife team valentina lisitsa (interviewed elsewhere http://www.marcoantoniodealmeida.com/cdenglish.htm
Extractions: The title of this disc -Brazilian Ragtime- immediately calls Scott Joplin to mind. And these infectious tangos, waltzes, and polka (all but two composed during the first two decades of this century) certainly have a lot in common with Joplins contemporary efforts, not only in the catchy syncopated rhythms of the more kinetic numbers, but in the seductive redolence of the more introspective pieces as well. But there are other kinships as well: backward glances at Schumann in some of lhe harmonies, for instance references to Johann Strauss in some of the melodies (indeed, Confidêncías nearty quotes Artist's Life), and even some brief premonitions of Poulencs smoky café bittersweetness. But as Peter Burwasser pointed out in his thoughful review of Polly Fermans Nazareth recital on Talent (Fanfare 18:3; see also John Diskys assessment of an earlier Ferman disc in 13:3), the most potent influence is probably Gottschalks presence which had a tremendous effect on the musical life of the city, and the young Nazareth worked closely with Gottschalks friend, pianist and publisher Arthur Napoleão. And throughout this disc, one can feel the constant ínspiration of Gottschalks special blend of New World vernacular vocabulary and Old World musical syntax - as well as his love for brilliant pianistic effects. Certainly, Nazareths music is more self-consciously showy than Joplins - and more innovative in its use of the pianos resources (listen, for instance, to the way Nazareth uses the upper reaches of the keyboard in the polkas "Apanhei-te Cavaquinho" and "Ameno Resedá").
