WELCOME RETURN TO AUSTRALIA BRAZILIAN PIANIST NELSON FREIRE
Nelson Freire. Image courtesy Decca/Benjamin Ealovega Nelson Freire is a Brazilian pianist. Nelson Freire was a child prodigy. Nelson Freire is a superstar. Nelson Freire is shy. These are just some of the words used to describe an undeniable star of the piano world who will be visiting Sydney in September to perform both a solo recital and Schumann’s Piano Concerto with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. But Freire is a man, who by his own admission is “difficult to define”. He tells Fine Music: “Of course I try to be honest and generous not only in music but in life as well. I’m happy if it comes out when I play. But ‘what am I’ is hard to tell. “Sometimes I look back and think ‘I have been so many Nelsons in my life’. It may not show from outside but deep inside it is how I feel.” Perhaps it is this flux and introspection that makes Freire such a captivating soloist. A pianist is the musician without a section, the piano the instrument that can imitate all others but yet it stands alone. A piano is many things just as Nelson Freire has been many men. So how will they combine in this September recital?
Freire in recital Freire’s selection of pieces is inspired by the same philosophy with which he views himself. He can play a piece for decades so long as “I see and feel differently whenever I approach them”. 2

fineMusic 102.5
If this is found not to be the case he lays the work aside and waits “until it comes to life again”. Freire opens his September program with Bach, a feature of his 2016 season. Asked where, in light of the HIP (historically informed performance) movement, Freire sees Bach’s place in the piano repertory, he replies emphatically: “Bach! The father of Music. Ageless, his works display all that would come after him”. This would be reason enough for Bach’s music to open a recital but Freire adds further justification: “Sometimes before practice, ‘if I’m not in a musical mood, I start playing Bach and immediately there’s an awakening”. Audiences, thus, will be aroused by Bach’s Partita No. 4, a delightful set of dances that rely on a pianist’s understanding and technique to show off their individual character. From Bach, Freire moves to Beethoven. The Sonata No. 32 in C minor was to be Beethoven’s last Piano Sonata and one of his final compositions for piano. It is discernibly mature with its perfectly balanced two movements (eschewing the traditional three) and the complexity of its musical and emotional language. Asked if he thinks Beethoven had a specific fascination with C minor (it is the key of his 5th Symphony and many other great works), Freire explains that, “Beethoven has expressed all the
human emotions. From joy to anger, sadness to exaltation and so on. His life, everyone knows, was incredibly hard. C minor is the key of drama, but also revolt and strength. “Chopin knew it when he composed his Revolutionary Etude. That fight was constant in Beethoven’s life, therefore so many (of his) significant works are in that key.” Freire will surely bring something unique to the work, as he will, too, with the succeeding ‘palate cleanser’. Shostakovich’s Three Fantastic Dances are the composer’s earliest piano compositions and are both short and characterful. In this recital they act as a reprieve before Freire’s two chosen Rachmaninoff Preludes. Freire has selected the B minor and G minor Preludes of Rachmaninoff’s Opus 32 for the way that they reflect aspects of the composer. “The B minor,” Freire explains, “was [Rachmaninoff’s] favourite, apparently. It’s said it was inspired by the BÖcklin painting The Homecoming”. This nostalgic and powerful Prelude is set in contrast to the “fluid G sharp minor”. The many facets of Nelson Freire are at play once more. There occurs the thought that a recital program is not dissimilar to curating an art exhibition. It’s about how you balance the works so that even the most famous can be seen, or heard, anew. It is perhaps with this philosophy in mind that Freire selects to round off his program with Chopin. He
these two characters are coded in music. Coriolanus’ theme is in C minor, Beethoven’s key of drama, revolt and strength, as Freire explained, whereas Volumnia is depicted in Eb major, the key of love and devotion. When Freire joins Lehninger and the SSO to perform Schumann’s Piano Concerto, they will enter the world of A minor. Schumann’s only piano concerto began its life as a one movement Concert Fantasy. It was intended for, dedicated to, and shaped by his love for his wife Clara. It is no wonder, then, that A minor was chosen, being the key of pious womanliness and tenderness of character. When Clara rehearsed the Concert Fantasy she remarked that, “the piano is interwoven with the orchestra in the most delicate way one can’t imagine the one without the other.”
Nelson Freire. Image courtesy Decca/James McMillan is a Chopin devotee and his recordings are much celebrated. Describing his ongoing exploration of Chopin, Freire says, “Chopin? How sad would be the world without him. It’s music that touches everyone’s heart no matter which part of the World. He was maybe the best thing that happened to the piano for in his hands the piano was no more a percussion instrument but became a singing one”. And so Freire will dance, with two Mazurkas, and sing his way to the final glorious Ballade No. 4. And so the recital will end and Freire will take his bow.
Lehninger, Freire and the SSO If the recital is the finale to Freire’s Sydney visit, Schumann’s Piano Concerto is the impassioned lead up. It is the centrepiece to a concert that opens with Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture and closes with Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2. A concerto is a test of faith between the soloist and conductor. Leverage given for interpretation must be repaid with skill and integrity; combined in this way, magic can occur. Freire is to share the stage with fellow Brazilian, conductor Marcelo Lehninger. The two are long-time friends and collaborators, impressing audiences in the US with their compelling interpretations. The music they play, it is said, breathes. Though still in his 30’s, Lehninger has already had an illustrious career. Assisting James Levine at the Boston Symphony Orchestra, he was asked to step in at short notice when Levine took ill. In his rise to fame, he became known for ‘saving the day’. What, then, will Lehninger make of the story of Coriolanus? Perhaps, like Beethoven, he will relate to the tale of a lone man who heroically goes against orders. Or, perhaps, he will empathise with Coriolanus’ mother, Volumnia, a gentle and humane woman who pleads with her son to save himself. The facets of
It is a marriage, or concerto best realised, and the perfect foray for Freire and Lehninger’s mutual sensitivities. In its three movement form, the concerto moves from the opening fantasy to a slower and more delicate second movement. The modesty of this is balanced by the joy and vivacity of the finale. A woman, like a pianist, can be many things, and Schumann draws on this notion in his concerto. But as his lasting impression, he chooses a waltz – Clara in his arms for eternity. Love between people may be the theme of the first half but after interval a more religious note is invoked. Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2, with its stirring gloom, is the perfect emotional counterbalance to round out the concert. A piece that begins in mystery before breaking out into resounding wind chords and trembling strings, it will be fascinating to see how Lehninger controls the drama. Each movement evokes its own emotional world. The uneasy suspense of the first movement gives rise to a livelier second movement but one interwoven with the Dies Irae (Day of Wrath from the Requiem Mass). The slow third movement indulges in the beauty of a melody that allows the clarinet to sing but this calm is soon broken by the might of the fourth movement. Fanfares, bells and Rachmaninoff’s signature rhythmic pattern (yum-pa-ta-tum) bring this epic piece to a close. Three pieces spanning 100 years in time and the breadth of human emotion. Balanced as they are, the concert has the potential to be that perfectly curated art exhibition; one that permits an audience to experience, rather than just hear, music. In the making of music, each has their part to play – the united force of the orchestra, the artistic acumen of the conductor and the transfixion of the soloist – a concert requires them all. But the wonder of live music is the way it shifts in identity. Just as Nelson Freire has been many Nelsons so Rachmaninoff in Sydney is but just one incarnation. It’s what keeps us going back.

Few pianists are as widely admired as Brazilian Nelson Freire. And his welcome return to Australia after two decades will see him perform a concerto perfectly suited to both the poetry and the virtuosity of his art. Schumann’s rhapsodic Piano Concerto is music from the heart, composed for his new wife to play and full of irresistible beauty. Rachmaninoff’s Second Symphony was a hit long before Eric Carmen borrowed its best tune for Never Gonna Fall in Love Again. And it’s the gorgeous gloominess of the music that has made it popular. Never has heartfelt emotion and sighing melancholy been so glamorous. Add Beethoven in dramatic mode and you have a program of poetic and emotionally moving music.

LEGENDARY FLAMENCO ARTISTS TO TOUR AUSTRALIA
Paco Peña talks to Fine Music
Paco Peña Flamenco is an art form as cerebral as it is physical for as much as it is about passionate expression it is also about control. While the feet go a thousand miles an hour, the torso is held still. While men and women dance together, their bodies do not touch. It is this
restraint that makes Flamenco so alluring; it is simultaneously emotional and honest and no more so than in the eyes of guitarist Paco Peña. Peña and his company of dancers and guitarists will travel to Australia to perform

Flamenco in Concert at a series of venues from Perth to the east coast during September and October. Peña is not reticent about the long journey. Rather, as he explains to Fine Music he considers travelling “a part of what I have to do and it sorts of builds up to a performance, a kind of struggle to actually give birth to something interesting which I want to say on the stage”. Peña embodies the cerebral aspects of Flamenco. He is shy, not “forward–going” enough to dance so chooses instead to “motivate dancers with the music that I play, with my ideas”. Peña’s music and ideas take centre stage in the first half of Flamenco in Concert, as he will perform solo. Asked if he sees his guitar as an instrument or an extension of himself, he says: “It is really an extension, in human terms, an extension of my words of my feelings and therefore it is of course an instrument but it has to be a responsive instrument to those motivations, to those things I want to say.

Conductor: Brett Weymark.
“If the guitar is a particular instrument,” he continues, “then it is an instrument that provides percussive elements which the dancer can emulate and use for displaying her art, or his art”. But it also has a sort of lyrical quality that emulates and projects the very special qualities of the human voice, says Peña. He believes that as a soloist he can bring out both aspects, the rhythmic and the singing. “Those two things are actually part of establishing who I am, what I perform, what I try to project,” he says. ‘Project’ seems the best word to capture what Peña aims to do. He laughs when asked if he sees what he does as performing; he likes the question, he’s just been caught off guard. After giving it some thought he replies, “I have to say it is and it isn’t. Though I am not a forward-going person, on stage I put forward strongly what I believe in musically. Nevertheless, I’m honest in that so there is no performance there”. But in putting himself on the stage, Peña actually has a very strong mission or commitment to convince, “to bring with me, all those people that have come to see me and hear me so though in a sense it is very honest, from my point of view, it is also something that I have to devise and I suppose that becomes a performance”.
True to art
This theme of honesty extends to the second half of Flamenco in Concert when dancers will join Peña on the stage. The tradition of Flamenco as a hybrid music and dance form is, to Peña, “a very honest articulation of a culture, of the feelings of a culture, which is my culture”. “It is a very true art form, which touches people, hopefully, in a very special way, even if society now is, thank god, by and large in a very comfortable state of affairs. Flamenco deals with feelings that are almost kind of primordial which are very true and belonging to humanity in a way that people can catch from the performance,” said Peña. His comments touch on Flamenco’s tumultuous past. Catholic society once persecuted the Gypsies, Moors and Jews who had brought Flamenco to Spain. Peña himself was raised Catholic and, when commissioned to compose a large-scale religious work, set out to reconcile those strands. His Misa Flamenca unites “the Flamenco voice which is very raw, a very emotional and almost careless crying out of emotion… with the well-established, well organised system of the Mass and that rite of the Mass”. It seems as much a humanitarian effort as a compositional one; to set right the history of the art form that defines him and
to highlight the universality of the human condition. Misa Flamenca is as much a part of Peña’s musical ‘journey’ as Flamenco in Concert. Travelling the world is part of his process ‘of actually realising my ambitions, in terms of artistic endeavour.’ Peña says he gains something from every place he visits but this honest and emotional man confesses to having gained something special here. “Australia,” he concludes, “has given me a lot of something very important… confidence”.

RICHARD GILL & ORCHESTRA SEVENTEEN88
Education is as HIP as ever they need people who can open their minds,” says Gill.
An extraordinary orchestra
Richard Gill There isn’t much that Richard Gill hasn’t done in his seventy odd years. He has been a music educator, a choir master a music director, a conductor, an academic and most recently the Artistic Director of Sydney Chamber Choir and orchestra seventeen88. Most recently he was honoured on the Queen’s Birthday List with an AO for distinguished service to “the performing arts as a conductor, artistic director and advisor, to the development of music education, and as a mentor of young musicians”. Reading Gill’s memoir - Give Me Excess of It - released in 2013, one gets the sense that this is a man on a mission. He has been at the forefront of music education and has engaged entire generations of students and excited many thousands of Australians with a love and passion for new music. Now in his 75th year there is no stopping Gill, as he continues to be a driving force in music. “If you are teaching music properly to children one of the things you want to teach them is how to improvise and how to make their own music,” he tells Fine Music. “When they make their own music they understand how music works and then they can apply those principles to the music they hear. We are not here to sell them taste - we are here to provide them with as much music as possible from which they can make decisions. “When people are learning about music they don’t need pioneers and crusaders
Gill is currently Artistic Director of the Sydney Chamber Choir, and Chief Conductor and Artistic Director of Sydney’s newest orchestra, orchestra seventeen88. However, this is no ordinary orchestra as it is an ensemble devoted to performing works through their renditions of historically informed performance practice, otherwise known as HIP.
Upcoming work Richard Gill will be at the helm when orchestra seventeen88 and the Sydney Chamber Choir perform in Sydney on 1 October. The program features works by Haydn and Ross Edwards. “The Nelson Mass is an extraordinary Mass for strings, trumpets and timpani. It’s sometimes called the ‘Mass in Troubled Times’. It exists in a number of versions, but we do know the version for strings trumpets and timpani is the original version. “Because we pride ourselves on the editions that are as close to the original as possible we are going this version,” says Gill. The Nelson Mass is contrasted with a performance of Ross Edwards’ Missa Alchera (Mass of the Dreaming) performed by the Sydney Chamber Choir. Also on the program is Hadyn’s Symphony No. 104 the ‘London’.
“All of these players are specialists – the string players play on gut strings, wind players play on the instruments of the period (either very good copies or close models) and we play at A430.
“Haydn’s late symphonies represent a peak in classical symphonic writing and they have had a lasting impact on classical music with orchestras all over the world still playing them today,” said Gill.
“There is constant research coming to light about the way this music was played and articulated. It has to do with note length and what you do dynamically with the music, as there are very few dynamic indications as it was expected that the players would know what to do… rather like jazz,” said Gill.
So, what can we expect next from Richard Gill? “Much the same as what I am doing now,” he says with enthusiasm, “day by day, that’s my view”.
The orchestra was formed after a performance of Marriage of Figaro with Victorian Opera in 2012. “That particular group of musicians really enjoyed playing together and we decided we would establish an orchestra,” explains Gill. The performers in this orchestra all perform in the top HIP positions around the world and come together to bring Sydney audiences high energy performances. A lot of scholarly research goes into recreating performances from another time that reflect how it would have sounded in Mozart or Haydn’s day. “So the scholars research this stuff, they compile evidence. We look at the evidence, the way the instrument was made, what it can do, why the gut strings work- that gives you insight into how this music sounded,” said Gill.

For a new label which places artistic integrity first, Blue Heron Records hit the jackpot when it decided to feature the compositions of three of the 20th century’s greatest popular composers in its first release. It couldn’t have found a better instrumentalist to interpret their music than tenor saxophonist Harry Allen who has been playing the music of Gershwin, Porter and Ellington for many years, continually finding inspiration in their peerless melodies.

from the seemingly endless treasures of The Great American Songbook, his style anchored in his early influences, Stan Getz and Zoot Sims. He’s comfortable with these songs and it shows here as he plays with authority, elegance, intimacy and, on Happy Reunion, with a touch of sensuality. One is reminded of the legendary Zoot as he swings effortlessly through Love For Sale, spiced with Latin rhythms by percussionist Little Johnny Rivero who is on three tracks. The rest are by a quartet with Israeli-born pianist Ehud Asherie, a sparkling and nimble soloist; bassist Nicki Parrott, who not only anchors the session but sings delightfully; and Chuck Redd, a swinging pulse on drums and a superb vibraphonist. If I was to single out one track, and it wouldn’t be easy, it’s Gershwin’s

Upward Spiral is a collaboration of two highly talented and creative jazz artists Kurt Elling and Branford Marsalis. Elling’s rich baritone voice spans four octaves and showcases both astonishing technical mastery and emotional depth alongside the alto and tenor saxophones of Marsalis. Featured on nearly all tracks are Marsalis’ long time, freewheeling rhythm section- the pianist Joey Calderazzo, bassist Eric Revis, and the drummer Justin Faulkner. Elling has repeatedly proven his prowess for working with star instrumentalists and quartets having recently won a Grammy Award for his tribute to the famed collaboration between saxophonist John Coltrane and vocalist Johnny Hartman. Marsalis, also a Grammy winner, is a flexible and ambitious
artist renowned for his work on classical evergreens and for his crossover into film soundtracks and the blues. Featuring fresh arrangements of Songbook staples I’m A Fool To Want You, Blue Velvet and There’s A Boat Dat’s Leavin’ Soon For New York, jazz standards like Jobim’s Só Tinha de Ser Com Voce and Lester Lee’s Blue Gardenia, adding ‘standards-to-be’ like West Virginia Rose with music and lyrics from pianist Fred Hersch and Practical Arrangement from Sting and Robert Mathes, this new artistic alliance is an unforgettable stellar showcase of both instrumental and vocal jazz expertise. - Barry O’Sullivan
legacy. A few years later when Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane were the pre-eminent tenor saxophonists and many critics were in the thrall of the so-called “new thing”, one of the twin pillars of the instrument (Lester Young was the other), recorded a session which would not only enrich this legacy but confirm that Coleman Hawkins was still a musical giant. Released on the label’s Moodsville series devoted to ballads, this 28 February, 1961 date finds Hawkins blowing in magisterial splendour on a repertoire from the classical age of popular American songwriters. With his sound warm and mellow, Hawkins raises the bar far above what could be called mood or background music as befitting someone who recorded jazz’s greatest saxophone solo (Body And Soul in 1939). Hawkins was going through a
renaissance in this period, mainly because he usually surrounded himself with young musicians and this date is no exception: guitarist Kenny Burrell (enough said); pianist Ronnell Bright who would later be pianist, arranger and conductor for a number of singers including Sarah Vaughan; a 21-yearold drummer Andrew Cyrille who would find fame with avant garde; and bassist Ron Carter, who would be a member of one of Miles Davis’ greatest groups. As for the music, Frank Sinatra would have been envious of Hawkins’ soulful reading of More Than You Know and his conservations with Burrell on Moonglow and Just A Gigolo are worth the price of the album alone. Memorable. - KJ
FINE MUSIC HIGHLIGHT OF THE MONTH
An introduction to the Master Key Series tuning anomalies that made them sound very uneven. Equal temperament is, therefore, a compromise tuning system in which the octave is divided into twelve equal semitones.
Johann Sebastian Bach This month, as part of the Sunday Specials, Fine Music 102.5 begins a series of monthly programs dedicated to the 24 diatonic keys. Titled Master Key, it begins with C Major on the 18th of September. The system of keys developed from the Church modes that were used to sing the liturgical chants of the middle ages. The modes originated in Ancient Greek musical theory and while they have many features common to the major and minor scales of later Western Music, they have many differences. For instance, most do not have a leading note (Major 7th above the first note). The first harmonies notated in Western music history are known as organum—a practice of singing plainchant in parallel fourths or fifths. While organum created polyphonic music, the practice did not function in the same was as harmony. As polyphonic music evolved, performers, and eventually composers, altered the notes of the modes to invent the cadences and progressions that we might recognise today as functional harmony. Over time these alterations to the modes became codified and the system of major and minor scales and chords was established. At the same time, systems of tuning were evolving to provide the flexibility for major and minor keys on all twelve notes to sound good. There were many different tuning systems that divided the octave by slightly different methods. The most important were Pythagorean tuning and Just Intonation. Explaining the differences between tuning systems can be very complicated and technical, but the thing to remember is that these systems did not divide the octave into twelve equal semitones. This meant that some keys sounded much as modern listeners would expect, but others had
Equal temperament had been theorised by several people during the Renaissance Period, including Vincenzo Gallilei (father of Gallileo Gallelei), who composed dance suites on all 12 chromatic notes and in 1568 included ricercares in all keys in his instructional book for the Lute. During the baroque period equal temperament became desirable as theories of triadic harmony, such as that developed by Rameau, suggested the possibility of tonal modulation to distant keys within a single work. Such modulations were limited only by the extent to which the tuning system would allow the harmony to sound well in distant keys. Bach’s masterpiece of the Baroque, the Well-Tempered Clavier, explored the 12 major and 12 minor keys not once but twice. It is debatable whether ‘Well-Tempered’ means ‘Equal Tempered’, however we would assume that the system of temperament used by Bach would have been very close to equal.
Baroque instruments Many instruments of the baroque period were not well suited to playing in all twelve major and twelve minor keys as lute or keyboard. So Telemann’s comprehensive set of Fantasies for solo flute only includes twelve different keys. Absent from the set of Fantasies are the keys that are very difficult to play on Baroque flute, such as B major and C minor. It was only in the late 19th century that all the woodwind instruments had been developed to the stage where playing in all keys with equal technical proficiency was feasible. Until the invention of valves in the mid-19th century, brass instruments (other than the trombone) needed either a system of crooks to change the length of the instrument (horn) or a set of different sized instruments (trumpet) to play in different keys, limiting these instruments and symphonic music to a much smaller set of keys.
The Worcester Fragments’: 15 leaves of polyphonic music recovered from bindings of Bodleian Manuscripts. Since the time of Bach, many composers have composed piano works in all keys, including Shostakovich, Chopin and Rachmaninov. Other composers have been fascinated by particular keys, such as Beethoven, who is associated with E flat Major, the key of his Eroica Symphony and Emperor Concerto. The Master Key series begins on Sunday 18 September at 3pm with C Major. Highlights include the C Major Prelude and Fugue from the Well-Tempered Keyboard by J.S. Bach and Bizet’s wonderful Symphony in C Major. Sadly a two-hour program is barely long enough to cover the many gems composed in each key. We are keen to hear your favourite works in particular keys. Please tune in to hear our Master Key Series on the third Sunday of the month, beginning in September.

YOUNG VIRTUOSI
Unearthing musical talent and diversity
Simon Watts
Anna da Silva Chen This month, Young Virtuosi presents a range of fascinating programs featuring music from the Fine Music’s Even Younger series, the Sydney Eisteddfod Piano Scholarship and the work of our very own Young Composer Award winner for 2016.
Even Younger performers The first broadcast this month features our youngest musicians from the Fine Music Even Younger series which is a program designed to showcase the musical talent of children aged four to 11. The multi-talented and delightful Jessica Hunt is four years old and is both a singer and a pianist with an astonishing mastery of range and pitch for one so young. Listeners will surely delight in the efforts and accomplishments of all the young aspiring musicians featured in this program.
Allison/Henderson Sydney Eisteddfod Piano Scholarship On 14 September, the Young Virtuosi program broadcasts the finals of the Allison/ Henderson Sydney Eisteddfod Piano Scholarship which took place on the 26 August when four incredible young pianists showcased their talents. The finalists,

aged 16 to 25 years, presented a complete major work of up to 35 minutes on which adjudicators Ian Munro and Professor Michael Brimer judged their choice of repertoire, presentation, current level of achievement and potential. In 2015, 23-year-old Victorian pianist David Soo triumphed against formidable competition to win the Scholarship with a colourful and convincing rendition of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No 31 in A Flat major. His competitors were fellow Victorians 18-year-old Kevin Chow and 22-year-old Nikki Wei, as well as 20-year-old NSW pianist Robbin Reza. For his well-deserved victory, Soo took home a weighty $10,000 scholarship and $2,000 cash prize. Currently studying at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music under Glenn Riddle, Soo holds an array of national and international honours to his name, including the Australian National Piano Award and finalist in the 2014 ABC Young Performer of the Year Award. With such a great reservoir of talent and dedication, Soo is set to achieve great things, and has already been accepted to a twoyear Master of Music degree at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
Orchestral recordings On 21 September, the Young Virtuosi program broadcasts a performance of The North Sydney Symphony Orchestra (NSSO) featuring the second and third place getter from last year’s Fine Music Young Virtuoso Award 2015, Chloe Chung (flute) and Simon Watts (saxophone). Here they are recorded with the NSSO: Chung plays the Mozart Flute Concerto No 2 in D Major and Watts performs the Tomasi Saxophone Concerto. Included in this broadcast is a performance of Anna da Silva Chen (violin) playing the Sibelius Violin Concerto on the 7 May, with the New South Wales Youth Orchestra (NSWYO).
Don’t miss the world premiere of A Clarinet Concerto The last Wednesday of the month, the Young Virtuosi program will broadcast the world premiere performance of the winning composition from this year’s Fine Music Young Composer Award. The recording features A Clarinet Concerto performed by Som Howie (clarinet) and the Willoughby Symphony Orchestra (WSO) at the Concourse in Chatswood on 17 and 18 September. The Fine Music 102.5/Willoughby Symphony Orchestra Young Composer’s Award is an annual competition which gives the opportunity for composers to have works played as part of the Willoughby Symphony Orchestra program and recorded by Fine Music 102.5. This year’s composition challenge was to create a clarinet concerto featuring flutes, oboes, bassoons, French horns, trumpets, timpani, strings and solo clarinet. The selected entry will receive a cash prize of $5,000 as well as the world premiere performance with the WSO. The APRA Encouragement Award receives $500 (without a performance).

Bach: Goldberg Variations Mahan Esfahani, harpsichord Deutsche Grammophon

Transcendental Daniil Trifonov plays Franz Liszt Deutsche Grammophon - 2 Disc Set ASIN: B01FYHNG5Y
✶ ✶ ✶✶✶ Daniil Trifonov has the stamina of a marathon runner when it comes to the piano. He burst onto the scene after resounding victories in the Tchaikovsky & Rubinstein competitions and since then has wowed audiences with his meticulous and imaginative playing. His delicate touch juxtaposed with a highly organised brand of technical wizardry makes him one of the most sought after pianists on the circuit today. The repertoire for his latest album is Liszt’s Complete Concert Etudes. This is a highly significant release by Deutsche Grammophon as it is the first time the complete set of Etudes
Mahan Esfahani is an Iranian-American harpsichordist born in Tehran in 1984. He has given concerts widely in Europe, the United States, China and other parts of Asia. In 2011 he gave the first solo harpsichord recital in the history of the Proms in London. Esfahani made his American debut at the Frick Collection in New York in 2012. His recordings have won several awards; and he is now Professor of the Harpsichord at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London. Esfahani’s recording of the Goldberg Variations must be one of the best of that widely recorded work. He elicits a beautiful silvery tone from the harpsichord. His virtuosity is astonishing in the more rapid passages. His tempi are sensible - not too slow in the slow sections nor exaggeratedly
fast in the quicker sections. On the vexed and arcane question of ornamentation, his playing is in accordance with the copy of the score that I have. Esfahani makes all the repeats requested by the composer. His rhythmic control is excellent. In all respects, his playing fully reveals the greatness of this masterpiece of Bach. Much as one admires the performances of this music by pianists such as Glenn Gould and others, there seems little doubt that the music sounds more natural when played on the harpsichord. I look forward to hearing his other recordings and hope that it will not be long before Esfahani performs in Australia. – Richard Gate
As part of the 40th anniversary celebrations the ACO re-visits the recording of these wonderful and popular works originally directed by the much acclaimed Dutch maestro, Frans Bruggen, one of the great pioneers of the early music revival. Critics felt that the symphonies were produced as a personal expression without regard to the demands of patrons or public and that motivation, in turn, goes far to explain their extraordinary scope and their striking ingenuity. Taken together, these three final symphonies seem to explore Mozart’s personality. Symphony no.39 is gentle, buoyant and courtly as if to reflect the royal patronage upon which Mozart depended for his livelihood. No.40 is a rare foray into gravity, one of his only two symphonies in
minor keys, perhaps reflecting Mozart’s depression over his waning popularity; whilst no.41 in C-Major presents a dazzling summation of Mozart’s past. The ACO under Tognetti’s attention to detail exploits the character and moods of each work and indeed each movement. There are few great conductors like Bruno Walter and Thomas Beecham who have not recorded these symphonies, and their performances have been much admired. This ACO recording shows all the usual dynamism, vibrancy and much fulfilled excitement expected from Tognetti and his Orchestra. These recordings will be considered a wonderful acquisition to any personal CD collection. - Emyr Evans
has been recorded as a whole. Trifonov completed the task in a mere five days. The first disc is devoted entirely to the 12 Transcendental Etudes. Right from the opening Preludio, a sense of showmanship is evident with Trifonov relishing in all the Lisztian pianistic requirements ranging from the sensual and floating account of Ricordanza right through to the incredibly dashing and demonic Mazeppa. Trifonov displays a brand of intelligent and thoughtful playing, which under the hands of another pianist might simply be passed off as bombastic and souless. The second disc contains the remainder of the Oeuvre de etudes with the Two Concert Etudes, Three Concert Etudes and the Grandes etudes de Paganini. His connection with Liszt and his sense of appreciation of the score is apparent and this is no more evident than in the first of the Two Concert
Etudes where the immaculate dexterity in his playing easily conquers all of Liszts technical demands. The 3rd Etude La Campanella occasionally suffers of overplaying but Trifonov takes a more measured approach, whilst losing nothing in his interpretation. This is playing of the highest quality. Experienced listeners will quote the performances of Liszt by the likes of Bolet, Berman and Arrau. In time Trifonov will be included in that list and a lot sooner than one might expect. He is a highly accomplished artist and this album may well prove to be his crowning achievement to date. - Frank Shostakovich September 2016

What’s On ENSEMBLE Musica Viva presents The Jerusalem Quartet Alexander Pavlovsky, violin Sergei Bresler, violin Ori Kam, viola Kyril Zlotnikov, cello 19 September, 7pm 24 September, 2pm Venue: City Recital Hall Tickets: $30-$109 Bookings: musicaviva.com.au/Jerusalem or 1800 688 482 The internationally acclaimed Jerusalem Quartet returns to Australia this September to perform two glowing programs of classical masterworks at the City Recital Hall in Sydney. With three members of the quartet having played together since their youth, there is a confidence and ease on stage which allows them to capture the depth and beauty of great classic works by Beethoven, Haydn and Dvořák. For this tour they have chosen exquisite pieces highlighting their musical authority. Program one perfectly pairs Beethoven op 18 no 6, perhaps the most ‘Haydnish’ of his quartets, with Dvorák’s Quartet no 13, tinged with Bohemian tunefulness. Program two is full of equal delights; opening with Haydn’s well-loved ‘Lark’ Quartet, and closes with the first of Beethoven’s ‘Razumovsky’ Quartets. At the heart of each program lies Ross Edwards’ String Quartet no 3, Summer Dances.

Genevieve Lacey (recorder) and James Crabb (classical accordion) are two internationally acclaimed soloists with a passion for chamber music and imaginative collaboration. Recorder and classical accordion are perhaps an unlikely pairing, but in the hands of these two musicians it becomes a magical one. Their CD – Heard This and Thought of You – presents music written across half a millennium and two hemispheres. A number of Australian writers were sent an early edit of the album, and invited to reflect on the music
with a letter to anyone – real or imagined – using the idea ‘heard this and thought of you’. The response was overwhelming, the music inspiring contributions from cartoonist Michael Leunig, journalist Jana Wendt, poet Luke Davies, theatre director and author Scott Rankin, and novelists Helen Garner and Chloe Hooper.

Hartog met no Indigenous Australians, and the only direct imprint of his visit was a pewter plate left as a record, rather like the golden discs sent out of the solar system with the Voyager spacecraft.

Eendracht (the Land of the Eendracht). Just as the spelling of Hartog’s name varied, so did early European attempts to write down Indigenous names. The Song Company embarks on a vocal voyage contrasting Renaissance music from Hartog’s musical DNA in the Low Countries with a soundscape of contemporary Australia, including motets from Sweelinck’s Cantiones Sacrae of 1619 and new works from our 2016 Call for Scores.

Also indulging in the warmth and richness of light are Samuel Barber’s Summer Music for Wind Quintet and three movements from Ravel’s exquisite solo piano work, Miroirs, in which we hear the floating sounds of bells across a village square.

Exotic rhythms and brooding intensity will rouse your passion and ignite your soul in this Spanish-themed concert program. Under the baton of outstanding Australian conductor, Paul Fitzsimon, the elegant Clarinet Concerto No. 1 by Carl Maria von Weber will receive a breath-taking performance by Australian clarinettist Som Howie, who returns from a sterling London career with the Southbank Sinfonia to perform as guest soloist. The Orchestra will also perform Matthew Hindson’s Bright Red Overture, followed by the impossibly colourful Capriccio Espagnol by Russian master, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. The concert will conclude with the brooding and enigmatic Love, the Magician (El Amor Brujo) by Manuel de Falla, a beautiful work that effortlessly combines tender subtlety with glowing fire, all flavoured with the warmth of mezzo-soprano Sarah Kemeny’s glorious voice. The concert will also feature the world premiere of the winning composition from the2016 Willoughby Symphony/Fine Music 102.5 Young Composers Award.
ENSEMBLE Elgar’s Cello Concerto Omega Ensemble with guest artist Teije Hylkema 5 September 7:30pm Venue: City Recital Hall Tickets: $29-$94 Bookings: cityrecitalhall. com or 8256 2222 Information: omegaensemble.com.au In 1919, in the aftermath of the Great War and as Elgar’s health began to fail, the composer poured his feelings into this haunting lament for a lost world. Poignant and restrained, the Cello Concerto is interpreted with maturity by Dutch cellist Teije Hylkema. The Concerto is set against the assured sophistication of fellow Englishman Benjamin Britten’s Sinfonietta, a work that belies the age of its creator – for Britten was just 18 when it was composed. Mozart’s Fantasia in F minor showcases Omega Ensemble’s musical precision, while contemporary works by French composer Guillaume Connesson and Australia’s own Mark Grandison are delivered with characteristic flair.

Four years later, he leaves his post for the German side where he meets and falls in love with a farmer’s daughter, Kate. He marries her and becomes a farmer. One day the French troup, to which Duval formerly belonged, arrives. As a deserter, Duval would be shot but he has a brilliant idea. He says that he has maintained his post as a border guard for four years. The captain of the French troup doesn’t believe him and sends him for a courtmartial. However, the General appears, believes Duval’s story and ensures that he is honourably discharged from the army. Duval returns to his wife, Kate, and his life as a farmer. The twin brothers, D647.

Lieschen, on her 18th birthday, is eagerly awaiting her marriage to Anton. At her birth, her father, Der Schulze, agreed with a friend, Franz Spiess that, in exchange for a sum of money, Franz would be allowed to marry Lieschen when she came of age. Spiess left for the war and was presumed dead but he suddenly returns to claim his bride. Franz’s identical twin brother, Friedrich, returns to the village on that same day. Each of the brothers believes that his twin was killed in the war. They are never in the same place at the same time and are mistaken for each other. While one brother tries to marry Lieschen, the other gladly revokes his right to it, leading Der Schulze to believe that the old soldier is mentally impaired and is unfit to marry his daughter. The twins finally meet and Lieschen is allowed to marry Anton. The conspirators, D787. Singspiel in one act. Libretto by Ignaz Castelli after Aristophanes’ Lysistrata. First performed Vienna, 1861. BARONESS LUDMILLA: Edda Moser, sop UDOLIN: Adolf Dallapozza, ten BARON VON LÜDENSTEIN: Kurt Moll, bass ISELLA: Elke Schary, sop Bavarian State Opera Ch & O/Heinz Wallberg. EMI 4 64321 2 1:05 While the men are away fighting, the Baroness convenes a meeting of the women. Udolin, the Baron’s messenger, dresses as a girl to spy on them. The Baroness wants the women to keep their men away from a life of violence. They swear an oath that they will withhold all sexual favours until the men promise to give up fighting. The men return home from the war and Udolin reports on the women’s decision. The men decide to retaliate by refusing to give any affection. The women are upset by the men’s indifference and the Baroness finds it difficult to keep them to their oath. Udolin and his girlfriend, Isella, trick the Baroness and the women into bearing arms. The Baroness admits defeat and the men admit that they have been conquered by love and will give up fighting. 23:00 TO NOVEMBER Prepared by Randolph Magri-Overend Bax, A. November woods (1917).

At a time of revolution in Zilania, the baby Princess Silvia has been taken away to safety in Belgium and placed with a family in Bruges. Her adoptive mother, Dame Paula, runs a laundry known as The White Geese with the help of her six natural daughters and Silvia. Silvia has had an on and off romance with a dashing young soldier, Karl. Karl has also been courting a milliner, Liane. Liane disguises herself as an adopted daughter of the laundress and, in doing so, confuses those in pursuit of the ‘lost’ princess. Silvia’s distant cousin, Franz, has been named as Zilania’s heir apparent and during his travels he meets and falls in love with an enchanting young laundress. After many complications and sub-plots, Silvia’s true rank is revealed but not before she and Prince Franz have become ‘sweethearts’.

Harmonia Mundi 907145 48 3:22 Ginevra, daughter of the King of Scotland, is betrothed to Ariodante. Polinesso, a jealous rival of Ariodante, wins the confidence of Ginevra’s maid Dalinda and with her help makes Ariodante believe he is Ginevra’s lover. The King disowns Ginevra for her alleged infidelity and they hear Ariodante has killed himself. Polinesso then arranges to kill Dalinda, the only witness to his plot. But Ariodante, whose suicide attempt was foiled, meets Dalinda in the woods and defeats the would-be assassins. Polinesso, seeking the King’s favour, defends Ginevra’s honour in a tournament, but is mortally wounded. Ariodante, having learned about Polinesso’s plot from Dalinda, appears and offers to be Ginevra’s champion. The dying Polinesso confesses and Ginevra is pardoned by the King. Handel, G.

Early in the reign of Peter the Great, three groups of partisans vie for power. The Strelsky, a conservative group of decommissioned elite soldiers, are led by Prince Ivan Khovansky; the Old Believers, Russian Orthodox Christians who have abandoned their church after reforms were put in place, led by Dosifey; and those loyal to the new Tsar, committed to bringing Russia up to date with Europe, led by Shaklovity. The story involves prejudice, murder and brutality between the groups as well as personal stories of love and loyalty. Excerpts from Pictures at an exhibition (1874; orch. Ravel, 1922).
