PORGY AND BESS
GERSHWIN’S OPERA IN THE CONCERT HALL the experience of the African - American population. When Heyward’s wife Dorothy, adapted the novel into a play it broke further ground and, in a bold move, the Heyward’s insisted upon an African-American cast and Dubose susequently crediting them as collaborators who transformed the drama. Back in New York, Gershwin read Heyward’s Porgy and decided it would make a great opera. The Heyward’s stage play was already underway in development, so Gershwin decided to name his project Porgy and Bess to distinguish between the two. He decided, however, that this would be a folk opera and as he explained to the New York Times, Porgy and Bess is a folk tale. Its people naturally would sing folk music. When I first began work on the music I decided against the use of original folk material because I wanted the music to be all of one piece. Therefore I wrote my own spirituals and folksongs. But they are still folk music – and therefore, being in operatic form, Porgy and Bess becomes a folk opera.’ Seven years would pass before Gershwin and Heyward signed a contract with the Theatre Guild to write the opera but finally, in September 1935, the show opened at the Colonial Theatre.
Nicole Cabell. Image - Devon Cass. The Concert Hall of the Sydney Opera House is a most dynamic venue; as Sydney’s stage, it hosts virtuoso pianists, rock musicians and HSC students - and that’s just in one week. In November it will morph into yet another guise - an opera theatre, as conductor David Robertson and director Mitchell Butel bring their vision of Porgy and Bess to life. George Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess is inherently hybrid because musically, it blends jazz, African-American Spirituals and musical theatre while retaining the qualities of an opera. Through Robertson’s vision, its hybridity will extend beyond the music because his Australian orchestra Sydney Symphony (SSO) will be combined with an American cast. Opera will blend with concert. In technical terms, this is known as a ‘semi-staged’ performance. In layman’s understanding, this means a world of possibilities. Before we turn to the 2016 production, it is interesting to peel back the layers and discover how Porgy and Bess came to be formed. Like Shakespeare, its intersection of 2

ideas, characters and politics makes it quite timeless. George Gershwin was a product of New York of the early 1900s. Born Jacob Gershwine, he was the son of RussianUkrainian immigrants, a boy who cut his musical teeth in Yiddish theatre, learnt the art of classical music and then scored his first job writing popular songs on Tin Pan Alley. In his twenties, Gershwin began collaborating with his older brother, Ira, and together they produced over a dozen Broadway musicals and some of the most memorable songs of their generation. Around this time, further down the Atlantic coast, a man by the name of DuBose Heyward was hard at work writing a novel, Porgy, a local tale that would reach the world. Set on the streets of Heyward’s hometown in Charleston, South Carolina, Porgy told the tale of a disabled African - American beggar and his efforts to rescue his beloved Bess, from the hands of both her lover Crown and a drug dealer by the name of Sporting Life. For its time, Porgy was a brave work and indeed, it was the first novel to validate
Eighty years later, and an ocean away, staging Porgy and Bess is perhaps a timely reminder of how little the world has really changed. Fine Music spoke with soprano Nicole Cabell who will be performing the role of Bess in the SSO production. Upon being asked what the story means to her, Cabell responded, ‘Porgy and Bess is a story of love in the hardest of circumstances. Sometimes the characters triumph in love, and sometimes they fail, but the message always is of hope. The story is also an expression of joy when faced with unfair, heartbreaking circumstances. This small community in Catfish Row looks after one another, living and fighting through tragedy, always managing to come out stronger in the end. I can personally relate to some of the struggles expressed in this story, and can attest that it is only strong relationships that matter, that can get you through hard times.’ Cabell’s answer captures succinctly why the work remains so humanly and emotionally timeless. When asked what draws him to the work, Robertson provided an understandably musical answer. ‘The brilliance of invention of
work to truly take off. Opinions were divided as to whether it was a racist work or an empowerment of race. As such, the opera fell into relative obscurity during the race riots of the 1960s. Its revival came at the hands of the Houston Grand Opera in 1976. For the first time the opera was being performed by an American opera company, rather than a Broadway production, and it secured the work in the opera repertory. Houston Grand Opera deservedly won a Tony award for the production. Sydney Symphony Orchestra performs at the Opera House - David Robertson. Image - Ken Butti.
As it is Cabell who will be voicing these tunes, it is interesting to try and understand how she relates to the character of Bess. Female characters in opera seem to exist somewhere on a spectrum of sweet to manipulative but as Bess sits on the crossroads, Fine Music asked Cabell which one she prefers to play. ‘Antithetically I actually have more fun playing the good girl,” she replied. “It’s more natural for me, I guess. That said, it’s also fun to play “bad” even though many of the rougher female characters in opera, such as Bess, have a heart of gold. I’ve come to embrace the challenge, to step outside my comfort zone, and it’s certainly becoming easier.” From the way she describes Bess, it is clear she feels an emotional kinship with the character. ‘Bess is only a little manipulative,’ she defends, ‘and it’s really a survival tactic. Most of her hard exterior comes from pain and struggle, both of which she constantly fights to overcome. She wants to be sweet and loving, but has suffered a lot of abuse. You can see, watching the opera, that she has a wealth of love to give, but fights quite hard to tap that well. Her weaknesses are the weaknesses we all suffer, or would suffer, in her circumstances. Given the right circumstances, she can be, and is, very sweet.’ With this powerful evocation of the female lead, it is left to wonder in what way Porgy’s character provides a counterpart and it is Robertson, perhaps, who provides the answer when asked what audiences should take away from their night at the opera: ‘The resilience of hope within the human spirit.’ That’s Porgy, through and through. Joining Cabell in Sydney will be Alfred Walker as Porgy, Eric Greene as Crown, Karen
Slack as Serena, Julia Bullock as Clara, Leon Williams as Jake and Jermaine Smith as the acrobatic Sportin’ Life. Being a semi-staged production, there will neither costumes nor set but as Cabell explains, this is far from a disadvantage. ‘When an audience isn’t given the full distraction of a set, lighting and costumes, they are encouraged to listen more closely to the music.’ And what music it is! As Robertson emphatically explains, ‘He thinks it is unlikely that there is an audience member alive on the planet who is unfamiliar with Gershwin’s music - they may just not know those beautiful melodies are associated with that particular composer. Gershwin is at once sophisticated and direct and very human.’ This directness and humanity is what permits the story to be told with only minimal dramatics. At the helm of those stage movements is Australian director, Mitchell Butel, who, much like Gershwin, has also explored the breadth of his field. Acting in everything from Romeo and Juliet to Oklahoma! and The Mikado, Butel turned his

the melodies and the way in which Gershwin is so incredibly fecund in coming up with all of these brilliant tunes, is what makes it so appealing.’

”
hand to directing in 2015. That same year he won Best Director of a Musical for his work in Violet performed at the Hayes Theatre. Butel is clearly well equipped to tackle this hybrid production and it is fascinating to try and imagine what he has in mind. Robertson is clearly pleased with the direction the collaboration is taking, saying he and Butel have ‘already had preliminary discussions and what he is putting forward is going to be an essential part of what I think will be a huge success.’ Robertson may be confident about his venture but it took a long time for Gershwin’s
From Cabell’s description, as would be hoped, it seems that today the work is seen as empowering, a foray into exploring race relations and manifesting aspects of humanity. Beneath the sails of the Sydney Opera House it is hoped that the opera will take people beyond the streets of Catfish Row and into their own hearts. This is the tale of two brothers, a husband and wife and two lovers brought together in a fusion of music and drama, popular and classical. It is a hybrid work for an ever re-incarnating hall. Come on down.

PINCHGUT OPERA
PRESENTS HANDEL’S MASTERPIECE one of the baroque composer’s greatest masterpieces. Lindy Hume directs this tale of innocence, love, faith and courage in ancient Rome struck down by blind hatred and the thirst for power. The beautiful young Theodora has inspired many to embrace the Christian faith – including the Roman officier Didymus, who has fallen deeply in love with her. When the order comes through that all Christians are to be arrested and executed, the two lovers find themselves locked in a battle to the death – each determined to sacrifice their own life to save the other. Christopher Lowrey - Pinchgut Bajazet. Image - ®Keith Saunders. Pinchgut rounds off a spectacular year with Handel’s Theodora, a succession of dramatic arias and choruses that promises to be a profoundly moving and achingly beautiful experience. In the last twenty years, Handel’s second last oratorio and his favourite work, Theodora, has come to be recognised as

WORLD PREMIERES, BICYCLE BELLS AND HIGH ENERGY MUSIC:
Nexas Quartet’s Debut Album “Current”
“The jostling counterpoint and textural ideas in my score are inspired by the art of slipstreaming or drafting, as it is known in cycling parlance. Between the saxophone quartet world and the world of cycling, there are parallels to be found, not the least of which are the pursuit of precision teamwork and a love for “the thrill of the ride”, Orlovich writes about his work.
L-R: Nathan Henshaw, Jay Byrnes, Andrew Smith, Michael Duke Since their inception over twelve years ago, Nexas Quartet (Michael Duke, Andrew Smith, Nathan Henshaw and Jay Byrnes) have premiered countless new Australian works and collaborated with the finest musicians here and abroad. The culmination of all of this hard work and dedication is now being presented in their CD Current which is being launched at the Utzon Room at the Sydney Opera House. The CD includes works that are all Australian works including world premieres. Featuring the music of Elena Kats-Chernin, Matthew Hindson, Matthew Orlovich, Lachlan Skipworth and Daniel Rojas, Current is an eclectic recording showcasing the diverse nature of Australian music and the vibrant and engaging sound of the saxophone quartet. Nexas first performed Elena Kats-Chernin’s From Anna Magdalena’s Notebook in Strasborg at the World Saxophone Congress. While it was originally written for string quartet, Kats-Chernin adapted it for Nexas. “This offers a fresh take on one of Elena’s most popular works and also explores new possibilities of timbre and enhanced dramatic effects,” says Andrew Smith. Nexas have a strong association with Elena Kats-Chernin, with Michael Duke premiering her saxophone concerto Macquarie’s Castle with the Sydney Conservatorium Orchestra earlier this year. In 2014, Nexas teamed up with internationally renowned composer Matthew Hindson and presented a ballet version of Romeo and Juliet. Nexas loved the piece so much that they asked Hindson to turn it into a suite. The result, Scenes from Romeo and Juliet
Suite was premiered earlier this year. “In this piece, I tried to use some aspects of Elizabethan dance forms mixed in with my more contemporary dance responses. It is still always classical music, however. My hope is that the music sounds very emotive of the drama and action implicit in the story,” Hindson says. Scenes from Romeo and Juliet Suite is divided into six movements, each depicting aspects of the characters and the drama of the narrative. Byrnes, Henshaw and Smith tell me that Lachlan Skipworth wrote Dark Nebulae while he was based in Germany and this is very much removed from his typical musical style. “Dark Nebulae alludes to deep space and dark matter. That’s why the sound world for it is based upon multi phonics and these slowly evolving musical lines that emerge from nowhere and from within each other,” says Smith. “There is this cluster of sound. This is probably the most ‘out there’ piece on the recording” Smith adds. Also featured on the recording is Matthew Orlovich’s Slipstream, also written especially for Nexas. Orlovich’s saxophone music is making its mark on the world stage and he has become a prominent voice for contemporary saxophone music. “I’ve written this piece called Slipstream, in three movements, and the first movement is a fanfare introduction and an up tempo lively feeling. The second movement is a ‘split personality’, with two types of character, which I have juxtaposed. There is a ‘funky’ character and a straight laced character. The third movement is a bit of a race to the finish line,” Orlovich explains.
Daniel Rojas, known for his energetic and Latin American influenced music, demonstrates a tender and lyrical side to his compositional style in Little Serenade. He writes of his piece: “Little Serenade is my homage to our memories of childhood. The contrasting middle movement, Nostalgia, is a bittersweet tribute to an innocence that dissolved long ago; vague traces of those childhood joys and tears, however, are etched into the delicate fabric of adult life.” For this recording, the slow movement, Nostalgia has been arranged and adapted by Jay Byrnes. “The translation from strings to saxophone often works quite well, and this piece is quite effective for a saxophone quartet,” says Byrnes. “The biggest challenge in arranging this is capturing the harmonies and nuances from the eight parts of the string orchestra to only four parts for the quartet.” “The pieces on this album are all substantial works that we feel very passionate about,” says Byrnes. “One of our aims is to bridge the divide between the intensely challenging contemporary works as well as the more accessible and find a middle ground. So that there’s something in there for everyone,” adds Andrew Smith. “There’s a lot that goes into recording new works and putting them in a permanent manner,” he continues. “We’re hoping that this recording cements our reputation as leading saxophone quartet in Australia and the world stage,” he adds further. -Samuel Cottell

AUSTRALIAN WORLD ORCHESTRA Chamber Music Festival in the Southern Highlands
Australian Violinist Anne Harvey-Nagl When Auguste Bernadel applied the finishing polish to his violin in Paris in 1864 he couldn’t have known the same violin would one day grace the stages of the NSW Southern Highlands, “I fell in love with it immediately when it was shown to me and luckily, I’ve never needed to search for another instrument in over 25 years,” says Anne Harvey-Nagl, a Vienna based Australian violinist who will return home in November to perform in the Australian World Orchestra Chamber Music Festival in the Southern Highlands on 26th and 27th of that month. The festival, now in its third year and curated by Artistic Director Christina Leonard, has built a solid reputation as a weekend event featuring fine music played by some of Australia’s most highly acclaimed classical musicians living at home and abroad, complimented by beautiful food and wine in the company of like-minded people. The festival also aims to introduce works by Australia’s foremost living composers. In previous years the festival has hosted Mary Finsterer, George Palmer, Tim Dargaville, Andrew Ford, and Elena Kats-Chernin. This year’s festival features the music of Australian composer Paul Stanhope who will introduce his works alongside others by Beethoven, Saint-Säens, Schumann, Ravel and Kodaly to name a few. The three programs titled ‘My Song Is Love Unkown,’ ‘The Sweetest Nightingale’ and ‘Into The Sunset’ draw inspiration from Leonard’s experiences in the Southern Highlands. “It’s such a spectacularly beautiful part of the world.

creativity and makes it the perfect place to host a festival. I love the challenge of programming both cornerstones of the chamber music repertoire – well known music as well as music that is rarely heard, and also I really value the opportunity to introduce our audiences to the music of some of Australia’s finest living composers, as well as the composers themselves!” says Leonard.
working with these wonderful musicians in an intimate setting.”
Leonard, a saxophonist from Sydney who plays custom made instruments by Japanese instrument maker Yanagisawa, and the only ones of their kind in Australia, has a strong vision for this year’s Chamber Music Festival, “I’m looking forward to continuing to present concerts that showcase musicians from the AWO (Australian World Orchestra) in a really up close and personal way and to enjoy beautiful food and delicious wines with interesting people, because I always meet so many of them after a concert! Festival goers will enjoy the intimacy of chamber music, the skill of the performers and the beauty of their sounds. You always hear the mastery the players possess in chamber music repertoire.”
The festival is billed as a weekend of fine music, delicious food and uplifting experiences and will be presented at the Bowral Memorial Hall, St Jude’s, Bowral and Wombat Hollow, East Kangaloon.
The musicians from the Australian World Orchestra are some of Australia’s finest – a unique orchestral initiative that brings Australian musicians from home and abroad to perform together under the one roof. In its short 5 year history, the orchestra has attracted stellar conductors such as Maestro Zubin Mehta and Sir Simon Rattle. Violinist Harvey-Nagl says, “Every single player is at the highest level of professionalism and expertise and it’s simply a wonderful experience to work with likeminded, open, friendly, funny Australians, many of whom I have known since my student days.” As concertmaster of the Vienna Volksoper, the home orchestra to the Viennese Opera House of the same name, Harvey-Nagl is a seasoned international performer, “I am thrilled to be part of the Southern Highlands Chamber Music Festival, and to perform some of my favorite works with outstanding musicians. I’m especially looking forward to the diverse programmes, the opportunity to perform some Australian works, and to

The iconic Sydney Town Hall once against sets the scene for the Sydney University Graduate Choir’s performance of an equally iconic work, Handel’s Messiah. Composed in 1741 and premiered in Dublin just after Easter in 1742, Messiah has become one of the best-known and most frequently performed works in the choral repertoire. With the words from the King James Bible and Psalms from the Book of Common Prayer, as adapted by librettist Charles Jennens, Messiah counterpoints rich choruses – ‘And the glory of the Lord’, ‘Hallelujah’, ‘Worthy is the Lamb’ – with glorious arias – ‘Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion’ (soprano), ‘Why do the nations so furiously rage together’ (bass), ‘O death, where is thy sting’ (alto and tenor). The Sydney University Graduate Choir and orchestra, under the leadership of music director Christopher Bowen OAM, will be joined by a large guest choir drawn from across the city of Sydney. Soloists include Anita Kyle (soprano), Tim Chung (alto), Andrew Goodwin (tenor) and David Hidden (bass). Tickets (ranging in price from $25-$45) can be purchased from the Seymour Centre Box Office: phone 02 9351 7940 or online.

What a task! Coupled with a great aspiration to present a gargantuan work by incoming
The Seattle Recital - Works by Beethoven, Chopin, Prokofiev, Debussy, Ravel & Bach Emil Gilels, piano DG 479 6288

Recently, I came across a web page listing the greatest 25 pianists of all time. Whilst the usual suspects were there, one was strangely absent. I found it incomprehensible that the Ukrainian virtuoso Emil Gilels would Richard Strauss: Symphonic Interludes from Intermezzo & Ein Heldenleben Melbourne Symphony Orchestra/ Sir Andrew Davis ABC 481 2425
✶ ✶ ✶✶
Coupling these two choice opuses from the pen of Richard Strauss is not coincidental. Their link is that they are semiautobiographical….and before I am accused of being vague with words, let me just add that the incidental music from Intermezzo is based on a fictionalised version of what happened to Mr and Mrs Strauss relationship while the longer Ein Heldenleben is Mr Strauss’ self-glorification in the role of hero.

international musicians who don’t normally act as a team but with a ‘Manager’ who knows how to get the best out of his players. That is what we have on the table with Sir Simon Rattle conducting the Australian World Orchestra ’one of the great orchestras of the world’ in a recorded performance of Bruckner 8 in the Concert Hall of the Sydney Opera Opera House. And no wonder that the performance was crowned Best Orchestral Concert of the Year at the 2016 Helpmann Awards. Bruckner began work on the Eighth Symphony, the last symphony the composer completed and it was premiered under conductor Hans Richter in 1892 in Vienna and dedicated to the Emperor in 1885. The 1890 premiere was twice scheduled to occur under the direction of the young Felix Weigartner but each time he substituted another work at the last minute eventually telling Bruckner that he was unable to undertake the performance
because the work was too difficult and he did not have enough rehearsal time. In particular, the Wagner Tuba players in his orchestra did not have enough experience to cope with their parts. Did Sir Simon become affected by similar difficulties in his Sydney performance? I don’t think so! One anonymous writer described the symphony as “the crown of music in our time” whilst Hugo Wolf wrote to a friend that the symphony was “the work of a giant that surpasses the other symphonies of the master in intellectual scope, awesomeness, and greatness. Need one say any more? Acquiring this recording could be a valuable momento of a great Australian musical occasion. - Emyr Evans
not be included and I immediately dismissed the list. This previously unreleased recording, a live recital from Seattle in 1964, dispels any theories that he is not up there with the very best concert pianists of all time. The recital opens with a powerful and energetic reading of Beethoven’s Waldstein sonata. His recordings of the Beethoven sonatas are legendary and this is no exception. Whilst some of the intricacies of the work are lost, and I put this down to the recording equipment, his powerful surges in the outer movements are counterbalanced tremendously with moments of delicacy and serenity in the short slow movement which serves as more of an introduction to the finale. Other highlights on this disc include a jaw dropping account of Prokofiev’s brief one movement Sonata No 3 and a brash, virtuosic account of Stravinsky’s popular Russian Dance from Petrushka. There
is more Prokofiev, with excerpts from his Visions Fugitives, as well as shorter works from Debussy and Ravel. He finishes with a Bach Prelude in B Minor which displays his ability to encompass music from all periods of Western music. His account of Chopin’s rarely performed Variations on Là ci darem la mano evokes sensitivity combined with a majestic grandeur and sense of occasion. Whilst the music itself is spectacular, I feel as though DG could have done more to clean up this recording and remove more of the background noise, especially the incessant coughing from the audience. This was particularly noticeable towards the end of the first movement of the Waldstein Sonata. This is an important release in the 100th anniversary of his birth. Connoisseurs of Gilels will be tripping over themselves to get hold of this. They won’t be disappointed. - Frank Shostakovich
Strauss once told a friend: “I don’t see why I should not compose a symphony about myself. I find myself quite as interesting as Napoleon or Alexander.” Initially, I should praise the Melbourne Symphony and Sir Andrew Davis for the way he has moulded this excellent orchestra. It has biff, bash and no lack of bravado. As for Intermezzo, it is based on a misunderstanding on the supposed affair that Strauss had with a ‘penpal’ which almost led to divorce proceedings. Strauss, on his part objected to his flirtatious wife having a dalliance with a younger singer. And so the plot (which Strauss was forced to write as he could find no collaborators) was born. The incidental music is light, frothy and highly appealing. Which, alas, is more than I can say for Ein Heldenleben. Strauss loved
his brass and that has front-of-house status in this symphonic poem. Hopefully for me, it is like a hair shirt ……. an acquired habit!! - Randolph Magri-Overend

The former United States ballroom dancing champion’s third album is arguably her best, not only because of the timeless quality of the songs but the way in which she stamps her own personality on them with effortless phrasing and flawless intonation. Not easy when you consider many of these songs are synonymous with great artists of the past but it doesn’t appear to be a problem for a polished performer like Lyn Stanley who is among that unique band of vocalists who not only tells a story through the lyrics but does so with emotional warmth _ and

class! And to think she has been singing professionally for a little more than five years. The album begins and ends on a high note: Gershwin’s How long has this been going on with impressive trombone from Bob McChesney and a duet with guitarist John Chiodini on I’m A Fool To Want You from the Sinatra canon. I first heard many of these songs as a teenager and these, with other gems from The Great American Songbook, have proven a refuge from the barbaric garbage which passes for popular music these days and to hear them stylised by Stanley in a contemporary setting is a more than satisfactory experience. Take Boulevard of broken dreams where its atmosphere is enhanced by the combination of Hendrick Meurtens’ harmonica and the cello of
Cecilla Tsan and with the same pair she elegantly remakes Ellington’s In A Sentimental Mood. A beautifully recorded album. - Kevin Jones
This is another outstanding offering from the Joe Lovano Quartet featuring the late great Hank Jones. Jones passed away at the ripe young age of ninety-one in 2010, five years after this album was recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival in 2005. What we’re left with is another collaboration between Jones and Lovano that gave us the Blue Note albums I’m All for You (the title track which finds its way into this live set), the now iconic Joyous Encounter plus the duo outing Kids: Live at Dizzy’s Club. Drummer Lewis Nash replaces Paul Motian in the quartet’s previous line up on this album, accompanying them in a different way to his predecessor’s sonic landscaping. He is more at home driving hard and the other band members seem to thrive
on it. Technically this is a classic jazz quartet in every sense of the term. It is blessed with the inclusion of Hank Jones, one of the modern jazz geniuses of all time. His playing emanates imagination and inspiration and all his solos are full of love and musical poetry. The Brazilian influenced Don’t Ever Leave Me has some outstanding input from all players and Oliver Nelson’s Six And Four allows Lovano to get raunchy and raucous on the tenor, Jones to skillfully spiral across the keys, Nash to pulsate and throb on percussion and George Mraz on bass to just keep on walking. This culminates the album’s mission - that of being the perfect jazz for a summer’s day - not just in Newport. - Barry O’Sullivan
Nino Rota was an Italian composer, pianist and conductor who is best known for his film scores, most notably for the films of Federico Fellini and Luchino Visconti. He also composed the first two film scores of Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather trilogy, receiving the Academy Award for Best Original Score for The Godfather Part II, with the American Film Institute ranking Rota’s score number five on their list of the greatest film scores ever. This album focuses on Rota’s work for Fellini’s most popular films Amarcord, La Strada and La Dolce Vita plus Juliette Of The Spirits and Otto e Mezzo. Rota could write a great tune and his driving force was a unique sense of melody combined with elements of folk, circus music and opera. He embodied these elements with lush orchestrations,
marching bands and Italian swing, whereas The Umbrellas approach is more of a salon chamber ensemble incorporating bits of wild saxophone, playful trombone and pocket trumpet. But there are also vibes, marimba, mezzo-soprano voce and drum and bass to enjoy, all accompanied by the piano, organ and accordion of maestro Peter Dasent who was responsible for all the arrangements. This recent re-issue of the 2001 recording of Rota’s music is a potpourri of sonic magic extracted by the band from Rota via Fellini via Dasent, giving it new breath and continuous life. For happy music on a Summer’s day, it is highly recommended. - Barry O’Sullivan
ACACIA QUARTET
a wonderful partnership (with Acacia) I want to give opportunities to young people for them to be exposed to top-quality music.’
Acacia Quartet On the lower ground floor of Fine Music 102.5, tucked into Studio C, the Acacia Quartet are hard at work. Their name chosen to depict the wattle flower, it has, like them, evolved to represent a dedication to Australian music and composers. At the end of 2016, Fine Music will be bidding Acacia farewell as their time as Artist in Residence comes to an end. After three years, and a wonderful partnership, it is time for the quartet to spread their wings. Though they had already been nominated for an ARIA and an APRA-AMCOS award, few people had heard of the Acacia Quartet in 2014. Bringing together a wealth of talent in the guise of violinists Lisa Stewart and Myee Clohessy, violist Stefan Duwe and cellist Anna Martin-Scrase, the quartet needed to find a way to have their voice heard. Fortunately Liz Terracini, then General Manager of Fine Music, stepped in and invited the quartet to have a ‘Media Package’. As Myee Clohessy explains, suddenly, Acacia went ‘from being a relatively unknown ensemble to being recognised as one of Australia’s leading ensembles’. Fine Music’s support combined with Acacia’s hard work and dedication allowed them to find their niche and unique voice. Acacia’s dream was to have an Australian presence. Not only have they collaborated with musicians and composers such as Nick Russionello, Sally Whitwell and Elena Kats-Chernin (to name but a few) but they have also toured broadly throughout regional NSW. For Clohessy, this has meant a return to her roots. Having grown up in the Southern Highlands, Clohessy recalls how her Mum would look up the broadcast programme on radio and ‘record them, to let me listen to when I came home from school’. On the morning that she spoke to Fine Music, Clohessy had watched a 12-year-old girl play a Mozart violin concerto with her regional orchestra. ‘It reminded me,’ Clohessy mused, ‘of opportunities that I got when I was young. Now
This dedication to fostering a love for music across the generations is perhaps why Acacia have been selected for the Raphael Project. In May next year, they will travel to Berlin to record and perform three string quartets by the German composer, Günter Raphael. Though Berlin may seem a far cry from Bellingen, the origins of the project are closer to home. Lisa Stewart worked in Germany for many years and it is there that she met Fredrik Pachla, Raphael’s son-in-law. On hearing of the death of Pachla’s wife, solo violinist Christine Raphael, Stewart felt she needed to contact him. As she told Fine Music, ‘We began conversing with each other and talking about having lost such loved ones. Fredrik told me about the Christine Raphael Foundation and how it was an everlasting memory of her achievements promoting the overall presence of her father, Günter Raphael’s works. I was so touched by Fredrik’s love of both Christine and her father Günter Raphael that I was keen to know more. I told Fredrik of my life now in Acacia Quartet and said how I would love to hear Raphael’s music and was saddened to hear that Raphael’s music had been banned during the Nazi regime in Germany, and hoped that perhaps we could bring Günter Raphael’s music to Australia.’ Pachla agreed and sent over CDs of his wife playing her father’s music as well as scores of the works. The quartet fell in love with the music and after a couple of phone calls had an invitation to Berlin to record three (of Raphael’s six) quartets. As Stewart had hoped, they will also be performing these forgotten works at the Sydney Opera House and the Bowral Autumn Music Festival next year. For a quartet to cross the world (with their precious instruments in tow) is not, however, an inexpensive undertaking. Acacia hope their craft can help them raise the necessary funds. On the 6th of November, they will be holding their annual fundraise at The Rose Room, Burradoo - combining country surrounds, great food and beautiful music, it is the Acacia Quartet epitomised. Fine Music should be proud of what they have nurtured. They have helped an ensemble grow and, in the process, assisted
new composers to become established while ensuring that old ones are not forgotten. The Acacia Quartet is now fully in bloom.
- Nicky Gluch A word of thanks from Myee Clohessy: Acacia would love to thank Fine Music for their vision in recognising the Quartet’s potential back in 2014. Since being Artists in Residence we have received such great support from the Directors at Fine Music. Behind the scenes there have been so many amazing volunteers and staff that have welcomed and supported us. In particular, Acacia would love to say a huge thank you to Program Coordinator Steve-Marc McCulloch. We wish next year’s Artist in Residence the best of luck with their musical journey and urge other ensembles to apply for this wonderful opportunity.

EMI CMS 7 64394 2 1:37 The Duke and Duchess of Plaza Toro arrive in Venice from Spain with their daughter Casilda who, as a baby, was married to the son and heir of the King of Barataria. The infant prince was taken by Don Alhambra to Venice and, as the King has died, the hidden prince is now king. Casilda is now the reigning queen of Barataria but she is secretly in love with Luiz, their drummer. Don Alhambra explains that the prince was raised by the gondolier, Baptisto Palmieri, a drunkard, who eventually forgot which boy was his own son and which boy was the prince. The two boys, Marco and

Giuseppe, are now gondoliers. They have just married Tessa and Gianetta respectively. Don Alhambra informs them that one of them is the King of Barataria, but no one knows which. The gondoliers agree to go to Barataria at once, acting as one individual until the actual king is identified. Don Alhambra neglects to mention that the King is married to Casilda. In Barataria Don Alhambra breaks the news that one of the gondoliers had married Casilda when they were babies and therefore is an unintentional bigamist. The Duke and Duchess of Plaza Toro arrive with Casilda and Luiz. Don Alhambra finds the nurse who cared for the young prince. She happens to be Luiz’s mother. She hid the prince and gave Don Alhambra her own son instead. Thus, the king is neither Marco nor Giuseppe, but Luiz. Casilda finds that she is already married to the man she loves and the two gondoliers surrender their crown to Luiz and, though a bit disappointed that neither will be a king, they can return happily to Venice with their wives.

The German prince Arminio is defeated by the Romans. His wife Tusnelda is torn between him and her father, Segeste, an ally of the Romans. Segeste’s son Sigismondo is in love with Ramise, Arminio’s sister and he is torn between her and his father, who tries to urge a more advantageous marriage, which he rejects. The Roman general Varo is in love with Tusnelda. Urged by Segeste, Varo prepares to kill the captured Arminio, who refuses to sue for peace and entrusts his wife to Varo, but she assures Varo that her approval will only be won by freeing Arminio. The Germans attack and Arminio, set free by Sigismondo, leads them to victory. He forgives Segeste who swears loyalty to him. Arminio is reunited with Tusnelda, while Sigismondo and Ramise are free to marry. Handel, G. Concerto grosso in G minor, op 6 no 6 (1739).

La Gioconda is in love with the exiled nobleman, Enzo, who has returned to Venice in disguise because of his love for Laura, wife of Alvise. The spy, Barnaba, jealous of La Gioconda’s love for Enzo, accuses her mother of being a witch but she is saved by Laura. He then tells Alvise of Enzo’s love for Laura. La Gioconda confronts Laura but recognises her mother’s protector. Alvise orders Laura to take poison, but La Gioconda substitutes a sleeping potion and takes Laura’s body to her home, where Enzo is waiting. They escape as Barnaba claims La Gioconda, but she takes poison as he arrives. 23:30 TWO HUNGARIANS Prepared by Frank Morrison Liszt, F. Mephisto waltz no 1, from Transcendental studies (1859-60).

Prospero uses his powers to liberate good spirits Maja and Ariel from the witch Sycorax, driving her into the sea and taking Ariel’s son Caliban into his care. Nine years later, a ship passes by and Prospero orders Ariel to draw it to the island. It is wrecked during a storm. A survivor, Fernando, Prince of Naples, lands and meets Prospero, who realises who he is. Fernando meets Miranda and they fall in love. Three members of Fernando’s retinue, Fabio, Stefano and Oronzo, come ashore. Caliban, appearing to them as the ruler of the island, encourages them to kill Prospero. Seeing Fernando as a threat, Caliban decides to disguise himself as Fernando and seduce Miranda but his plan is overheard by Prospero. Ariel leads the three shipwreck
survivors to Prospero who turns them to stone but then releases them. Disappointed, Caliban throws himself into the sea. Ariel intercedes with Prospero for the lovers. A sailor arrives with news that the people of Milan have revolted and wish Prospero to return as their duke.
