SYDNEY SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CHIEF CONDUCTOR, DAVID ROBERTSON
David Robertson, Chief Conductor of the SSO Symphonies are much like Shakespeare’s plays. They appear cyclically in the repertory of orchestras and yet as oft repeated as they may be, the house will fill. In the corridors and down the stairs the remark “I love it every time” will be heard. Just as with the plays, a director will return to the text to draw out new nuances and form his/her own interpretation, so a conductor returns to the score. For David Robertson, about to embark on his 4th season as Chief Conductor of the SSO, the aim is to “become very aware of what the composer wrote and start from that. This means that the experience of preparation is both objective and subjective at the same time. It is objective because rather than using
”
the key of full delight…
”
some artefact like a recording or another performance – even a performance that I have done myself – I try to go objectively in to what is in the score and figure out why the composer has decided to write the score in the exact way she or he has done. That is inevitably subjective, but it means I am trying to engage with the work in a fresh way every single time and not take it for granted even 2

though I may have done it a number of times before.” This method will guide Robertson’s approach to Tchaikovsky’s 5th Symphony, to be performed by the orchestra in February. A favourite with audiences for the emotional trajectory it takes from sorrow to triumph, the symphony is ripe with possibilities for discovery. What, to the audience, is experienced as a journey is coded in the score as a theme that exists in different permutations in all four movements. In musicological terms, this is known as cyclical. Then there is the harmonic progression, from the mournful E minor (in the Baroque period, known as the key of lament with a glimmer of hope) to the joy of E major (the key of full delight). But these are merely plot devices and so Robertson will dig deeper, contemplating how the instruments are paired, why Tchaikovsky instructs a crescendo for three bars but a diminuendo for three. Where this may be Robertson’s approach music historians would take a different tack. They might be fascinated by the history of the piece, that it was written in the summer of 1888, at a time when Tchaikovsky had
won favour with Tsar Alexander III and had begun to actively promote Russian music. They would wonder whether this period of somewhat stability in Tchaikovsky’s tumultuous life led him to contemplate the idea of destiny and compose a symphony about the resignation to fate. Where Robertson may give a nod to this idea, he is not bound to it for this is not the ‘truth’ of the score. As a man who does not believe in fate, Robertson is far more likely to see the symphony as more in line with “Hamlet’s speech, To be or not to be, and a question that goes all the way back to the Greeks: What do you do in a situation when things are stacked against you? The human condition is one where there’s a necessary struggle which is the struggle to live and that struggle in itself has a great quality of nobility. Whether or not you can discuss a fate as something unavoidable is only possible from a vantage point outside of the person who is undergoing the fate.” Tchaikovsky might be inclined to agree for, as the music historian would point out, the second performance of the 5th Symphony was given alongside the premiere of Tchaikovsky’s tone poem, Hamlet. Tchaikovsky’s 5th may be Robertson’s first concert with the orchestra for 2017, but
its reception. Criticism, however, was mixed for many were not ready to see the solo instrument taken off its virtuosic rostrum and infused into orchestral texture.
David Robertson and the SSO the season will be in fact be launched by Assistant Conductor Toby Thatcher with Haydn’s Symphony No. 68. Audience members lucky enough to attend both concerts will thus get to experience how the form evolved with time. As Robertson explains, “the development of the symphony through the classical period of the 1770s through 1790s in to the beginning of the 20th century has meant that the form can take on a huge number of different dramatic, lyric and even philosophical questions. The symphonies we are presenting span a very wide range of approaches to the symphony, from very concentrated to enormous and mammoth, and it’s particularly the breadth and spread of approaches that I find fascinating in this season.” As much as symphonies evolved, so did concerti and as the Haydn Symphony will be paired with a fellow classical work (a Mozart piano concerto), so the Tchaikovsky is matched with a Romantic wonder. Brahms’ Violin Concerto was written in 1878 for his good friend Joseph Joachim. Predominantly a pianist, Brahms consulted Joachim on the writing of the violin part. What is now established repertoire began its life as some jottings that travelled by post, being expanded on at one end and commented on at the other. Not all Joachim’s suggestions were taken by Brahms but his friend’s cadenza was deemed a success and remains in the work today. Performing the concerto in Sydney will be the great violinist Maxim Vengerov. As with Robertson, it will be interesting to see what Vengerov draws out of the part for this specific rendition. Injury led Vengerov to turn his hand to conducting and one wonders how seeing the orchestra from the other side has influenced Vengerov as a performer. Do his eyes fix on different aspects of the score?
As a concerto soloist, does he now relate to conductors differently? With Vengerov’s professionalism and thirst for music it can be trusted that any changes are enhancements. From his personal experience with injury, his work as a UN ambassador and a tutor at the Royal Academy (London), Vengerov easily sees the emotional power of music. He once said that music has “the power of healing because we learn something not only about music but about ourselves”. As conducting a work is as much a journey as performing it, Fine Music asked Robertson what he thinks he might learn from the Brahms Concerto. His answer is thoughtful. Whilst he agrees with Vengerov’s notion, he “thinks that what we learn is something that happens while we are engaging with the piece of music and it often comes as a surprise to us. It would be impossible for me to say what I learn from a piece of music before I’m actually engaged with that piece in that performance. Even then, the wonderful thing about music is that often times the feeling of the lesson that you learn or the thing that you perceive or the enlightenment that you have, feels quite often as though it can’t adequately be expressed in verbal language.” Brahms would certainly have agreed. So much of what he composed was inspired by an inexpressible emotional landscape. His love for Clara Schumann (Robert Schumann’s wife) inspired many of his great piano works and he wrote his Double Concerto for violin and cello to restore his friendship with Joachim. Similarly, Joachim tried to use music to make statements on Brahms’ behalf. The premiere of Brahms’ Violin Concerto was given with Beethoven’s Violin Concerto for Joachim hoped that the juxtaposition of an established work with a new one would aid
One such critic of the work was Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky himself. The two men reportedly disliked each other, Tchaikovsky thinking Brahms a scoundrel and Brahms dismissive of Tchaikovsky’s composing. Wondering if there was a deeper, musical reason for their animosity, the question is put to Robertson. Whilst considering that “many composers have a very personal way of looking at music and that’s partly there to protect their own gifts,” Robertson is not too concerned with whether “Britten liked Brahms or Tchaikovsky liked Wagner as opposed to whether or not we can hear the sound world that these individual artists were able to imagine and realise so incredibly well.” Personal politics may be entertaining and spice up a program but Robertson in his wisdom is encompassed in the musical. Though if one may speculate, it seems likely that Brahms and Tchaikovsky were in fact too similar to get on and it is for that reason that their music pairs so beautifully. Joachim and Brahms, Vengerov and Robertson. Great performers and conductors make formidable pairs. Robertson is looking forward to working with Vengerov for whilst the two have crossed paths this will be their first collaboration. One wonders what they will talk about in the dressing room. Might they pontificate on the concept of fate or consider their own musical journeys? Perhaps they will be found, heads buried in the scores pondering their secrets. Or perhaps as two Jazz lovers they will have Chet Baker’s Moon Love playing in the background. It was inspired by Tchaikovsky’s 5th Symphony after all. - Nichy Gluch

BRINGING IT ALL TOGETHER
André Previn’s Life in Music of jazz and modernism. His music is harmonically rich, and there is a clear sense of melody, texture and lyricism. Previn composed a number of works for violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter, most strikingly the marvellous violin concerto, Anne Sophie. In the 1980s Previn composed a piano concerto for Vladimir Ashkenazy, which has jazz overtones, moments of witticism and delightful ideas mixed with fiery musical ideas, reminiscent of Prokofiev.
André Previn In a ‘world of specialisation’ there are few musicians who transcend the single road career; however there are a few exceptions. Perhaps one of the most famed examples is André Previn. Considered one of the most versatile musicians in the world, Previn is capable of navigating countless styles of music that have seen him have a career spanning five decades and excelling in every area that he pursues. A ‘complete’ musician in every sense of the word. His music career is one that many could only dream of. Film Music Career Fleeing Europe as a ten year old with his family and arriving in American, Previn soon realised he had an affinity for jazz. So, when the opportunity came to arrange a jazz tune at MGM studios he leapt at the chance. And so began his career as a pianist, arranger, and then later composer at the MGM Hollywood studios. During this time he won four Oscar Awards for his work on various films, including My Fair Lady. Previn has documented his time in Hollywood is his book, No Minor Chords: My Days in Hollywood. Conductor Realising this was not the place to do ‘serious’ music, Previn left Hollywood to pursue a career as a classical musician at age 30. In his late thirties he took a gamble and left the studio system that he had been so involved in. It was time to pursue a career, against all odds, on the classical circuit as a conductor. Previn appeared on the Morecambe and Wise Christmas special of 1977 where he was to conduct Grieg’s piano
concerto. He was introduced as “Andrew Preview”. This fast became one of the most famous musical comedy sketches in history and gave the London Symphony Orchestra mass appeal to many new audiences. During his tenure with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra he hosted a television series Previn and the Pittsburgh in which he would talk to the audiences about the pieces the orchestra was performing or undertake interviews with guest musicians. Most notably was his hour long interview with jazz pianist, Oscar Peterson. During the broadcast Previn and Peterson performed a piano duet, to much acclaim. Jazz Pianist He would go on to record an instrumental version of My Fair Lady, which was the first jazz record to sell a million copies and has never been out of print. This paved the way for many more instrumental recordings of film soundtracks. Previn made several notable recordings with the David Rose orchestra, Secret Songs for Young Lovers (1959) Like Blue (1960) . They speak to Previn’s place in music, a bridge between two styles; playing jazz piano with strings. After a long break from jazz, Previn returned to the medium in the 1980s and recorded After Hours with Joe Pass and Ray Brown and since then has released a number of jazz recordings, including We Got Rhythm: The Music of George Gershwin, with bassist David Finck. Composer Previn’s composing style is deeply rooted in the idea of the Romantic tradition, with tinges
These days he spends most of his time composing. He recently said in an interview “I’m not worried about if people will be playing my pieces in many years, I’m just happy they are playing them [next] Wednesday.” His opera, A Streetcar Named Desire was commissioned by the San Fransisco Opera and was well received. A recording was released on the Deutsche Grammophon label. Previn’s Trio for piano, oboe and bassoon is a delightful tour de force, that mixes 20th century harmonies with tinges of jazz and delicate melodies. On a more local level, Previn’s piece for Wind Orchestra was recently been recorded on the debut album of the Sydney Conservatorium Wind Symphony, Celebrare features Previn’s piece No Strings Attached, a substantial contribution to the wind repertoire. This is a man who has had a turn at almost every facet of the music industry. His original music makes an important statement, a reflection of his personality and his style. It is music that appeals to all audiences, no matter their tastes. His music brings it all together. - Samuel Cottell

an exciting new 2017 season
Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra. Image by Nick Gilbert. The Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra (formerly orchestra seventeen88) has announced an exciting new 2017 season – along with its new ‘brand’! In the New Year, the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra brings to life the colours and contrasts of Classical music together with the expressive and emotional realm of Romantic music in a fabulous concert season. Performing on the exquisite and dynamic period instruments of the time, Australia’s world-class Romantic and Classical orchestra presents bold and daring programs with superlative soloists, conducted by Artistic Director Richard Gill AO and Principal Guest Conductor Benjamin Bayl.
ARCO (which also means ‘to bow’ a string instrument in Italian music terminology) burst onto Australia’s music scene in late 2013 as orchestra seventeen88 and has since performed outstanding orchestral and chamber concerts all around Australia. Featuring some of Australia’s finest international musicians and directed by legendary Australian conductor and educator Richard Gill AO, it aims ‘to inspire, educate and enlighten’ audiences. Through the combination of historical integrity and quality of musical performance, ARCO leads a rediscovery of Classical and Romantic repertoire with the beauty and clarity unique to a full period instrument orchestra. It has also made music education a focal point of its vision and the ambitious 2017 program steps this up a gear too with a series of workshops at public and private schools.
Mezzo soprano Fiona Campbell. Image by Nick Gilbert.
The excitement begins in March with the “Italian Romance” program, featuring Beethoven’s Romance for Violin (Rachael Beesley, soloist; Benjamin Bayl, conductor) and Mendelssohn’s beloved ‘Italian’ Symphony. The concerts take place at the Elisabeth Murdoch
Hall of the Melbourne Recital Centre (MRC) on Friday 24 March and the City Recital Hall, Angel Place in Sydney on Saturday 25 March (both at 7.30pm). May sees the “Unfinished Romance” series come to the same two major city venues, this time featuring Schubert’s ‘Unfinished’ Symphony and highlights from Rossini’s daring Barber of Seville. Mezzo-soprano Fiona Campbell is the featured soloist with Richard Gill conducting as the orchestra starts in Sydney’s City Recital Hall on Saturday 20 May then performs in the Elisabeth Murdoch Hall, MRC on Monday 22 May (both concerts at 7.30pm). Finally, the September “Revolutionary Romance” chamber concerts offer Mozart’s famous Clarinet Quintet (Nicole van Bruggen, soloist; Rachael Beesley director) and his exquisite Sinfonia Concertante as well as a favourite movement from Spohr’s String Sextet.

CD Review
Fritz Wunderlich – The 50 Greatest Tracks Deutsche Grammophon 479 6418
✶✶✶✶✶
To mark the 50th anniversary of the tragic early death of the German tenor Fritz Wunderlich, Deutsche Grammophon has released a 2-CD set of 50 of his greatest tracks and what a superb collection it is too. Wunderlich was just days away from his 36th birthday and weeks away from his debut at the Met in New York when he tripped over his shoelaces and fell down a flight of stairs causing injuries from which he died soon after. Considered among the finest Mozartean tenors of his day, he embraced a wide repertoire which included the works of Schubert, Bach and Mahler, all of whom are represented on these CDs. And then there are the wonderful old pot-boilers like
O Sole Mio, Granada and Mattinata. They’re all here. But in addition to all these, DG, in collaboration with Wunderlich’s widow Eva, has dug up hitherto hidden recordings, including a performance he gave at his first appearance at the Salzburg Festival in 1959 of Richard Strauss’s comic opera Die schweigsame Frau in which he sings, together with soprano Hilde Güden and legendary bass Hans Hotter, the trio Du süssester Engel! Sitting listening to all the highlights of his career is a breathtaking experience and only serves to make one realise what a great talent was so tragically taken from us. - Michael Morton-Evans

of the week and most agree that it is the highlight! Fine Music is a volunteer run community radio station and all our Work Experience students are very appreciative and impressed with the generosity of time and effort our volunteers put into each of their sessions. “Their passion and love of music is very evident” says Kathleen Notohamiprodjo and “this experience gave me an incredible insight into the dedication and passion put towards running the station.” Students can apply online via our website. Just click on Under 30s on the toolbar and follow the cues. Applications open in March for 2017. It is advisable to get your application and Work Experience dates in as early as possible as we have a limited number of places. This year, in the next exciting stage of the Under 30s program, we hope to run our Work Experience component from the purpose-built Fine Music Learning Centre!
Kathleen Notohamiprodjo “My week of work experience with Fine Music was so enjoyable it didn’t feel like work at all. Throughout the week I met radio presenters, vocal trainers, programmers and musicians. During the day they guided me through activities which allowed me to experience different areas of the radio station. I learnt how to use and speak into the microphone, digitally edit and create my own programs, catalogue CDs and even got to speak on air. Working at Fine Music exposed me to many new composers, pieces and genres...my time there was a very valuable experience I will never forget.” (Kathleen Notohamiprodjo, Year 10, Mount Saint Benedict’s College) This is how one student described her Work Experience at Fine Music recently. The program offers Year Ten students who play an instrument or are passionate about either classical or jazz music to sample an operational radio station based in St Leonards in North Sydney. It is a week of immersion in all the behindthe-scenes* aspects of how a classical music radio station works. It gives the students the opportunity to meet musicians, composers, 10

Leonora realizes that the page has fallen in love with this mysterious woman and suggests she will help him win her. Meanwhile Rosmonda, who has been alone in her tower for three months, is torn between love and remorse. Arturo brings news of her lover’s return, but adds that ‘concerns of the King’ keep him from her. However, permission has been given for an elderly knight to wait upon her, none other than Clifford, her father. From him Rosmonda learns her lover’s identity for the first time. Leonora appears and Clifford beseeches the Queen to take his daughter under her protection. Leonora agrees to do so, but Enrico, suspecting her malignant intentions, orders that she go back to Aquitaine the next day. Leonora, however, is determined not to be disposed of so easily. Clifford asks Rosmonda to leave with Arturo and they leave for the garden. Leonora finds her there but when Enrico and his troops appear, Leonora stabs Rosmonda. Enrico and Leonora acept that they both must accept Heaven’s blame. Ballet music from La favorita (1840). London SO/Richard Bonynge.

IOLANTHE: Ann Drummond-Grant, cont STREPHON: Alan Styler, bar PHYLLIS: Margaret Mitchell, sop LORD CHANCELLOR: Martyn Green, bar FAIRY QUEEN: Ella Halman, cont D’Oyly Carte Opera Ch & O/Isidore Godfrey. LP Decca ACLA 1129 1:27 The fairy, Iolanthe, marries a mortal, although this is forbidden by fairy law. She bears a son, Strephon and 25 years later, she visits him on Earth. Strephon wants to marry Phyllis, a Ward of Chancery. All the members of the House of Peers also want to marry Phyllis. When Phyllis sees Strephon hugging a young woman (not knowing that it is his mother (as immortal fairies all appear young) she assumes the worst and sets off a climactic confrontation between the peers and the fairies.Although Iolanthe is not allowed by fairy law to contact her husband, she appeals to him, as he is now the Lord Chancellor, on behalf of her son that he be allowed to marry Phyllis. Her punishment from the Fairy Queen is execution. Meanwhile, the other fairies have become strongly attracted to the Peers and the Peers to the fairies so she would have to execute all of them. The Lord Chancellor suggests a law change that all fairies should marry mortals and the Peers happily go off to Fairyland with their chosen fairies.

MAGDA: Kiri Te Kanawa, sop RAMBALDO: Leo Nucci, bar PRUNIER: David Rendall, ten RUGGERO: Placido Domingo, ten LISETTE: Mariana Nicolesco, sop Ambrosian Opera Ch; London SO/Lorin Maazel. CBS M2K 37852 1:41 Rambalo and Magda, his mistress, are entertaining friends including Prunier, the poet, at Magda’s luxurious house in Paris. Magda talks of the days when, as an innocent girl in Bullier’s café, she met a man she can never forget. Rambaldo brings in a young man, Ruggero, who has just arrived in Paris. Prunier tells everyone’s fortune and says that Magda, like a swallow, will migrate far away from Paris to find love. After the party Magda and her maid, Lisette, change clothes. Magda dresses as a grisette and goes with Lisette, dressed as her mistress, to Bullier’s café. Magda sees Ruggero and, reminded of the past, falls in love with him. Magda tells Rambaldo that she has found love and is leaving for Nice with Ruggero. Eventually Magda realises that Ruggero’s mother would never understand her past and sadly decides that they must part. She returns to Paris, leaving forever the love of her life. Crisantemi (1890).

EMI 5 66159 2 1:54 In Paris in 1867, the courtesan Zénobie, the mascot of the hussars, is flirting with the rich Antonin de Mourmelon who is in love with her. Ciboulette arrives at the market place, Les Halles, and consults a fortuneteller who says she will find love under a cabbage. Ciboulette returns to her uncle’s farm and is introduced to Antonin. Although she has eight suitors, she is delighted because he was asleep under a cabbage. The hussars arrive with Zénobie. Ciboulette, realising that she loves Antonin, locks him in the cellar but he escapes and runs after the courtesan. Duparquet, the controller of Les Halles, offers to introduce Ciboulette to the director of the Opéra Comique who will make her a star.Antonin, who has broken up with Zénobie, regrets the loss of Ciboulette and decides to kill himself. While he and Duparquet are having a drink, Ciboulette appears, so beautifully dressed that Antonin fails to recognise her. However, Duparquet introduces her as his new star, and Antonin and Ciboulette fall into each other’s arms. L’heure exquise, from Chansons grises (1887-90); Les etoiles, from Douze rondels (1898-99).

EURIDICE: Nancy Argenta, sop ORFEO: Michael Chance, ct AMORE: Stefan Beckerbauer, treb Stuttgart Chamber Choir; Tafelmusik/Frieder Bernius. Sony SX2K 48040 1:23 The grieving Orfeo resolves to go to Hades to find his deceased wife, Euridice. The god, Amor, appears and announces that the other gods, moved by Orfeo’s grief, have decided to allow him to bring Euridice back on condition that he does not look at her until they have returned. At the entrance to Hades, the Furies bar Orfeo’s way but he calms them by playing his lyre and singing an eloquent song of his grief. They relent and allow Orfeo to pass into the Underworld. In the Elysian Fields, the Blessed Spirits dance and the Shades bring in his veiled wife. On the journey to the upper world, Euridice becomes agitated because Orfeo will not look at her and fears that he no longer loves her. Unable to resist her anguished pleas, Orfeo turns and as he embraces her, she dies once more. Overcome with grief, Orfeo plans to take his own life.
