Festival Opening Concert

KOMORNI ORKESTER SLOVENSKE FILHARMONIJE

KLEMEN HVALA artistic leader

Soloist: RICHARD GALLIANO – accordion

 

 

Programme:

Nino De Gleria: Henki penki horizontal polka (a story in four movements), premiere of a new composition

Richard Galliano: Habanerando, Les 3 Dances, La Petite Suite Française, Opale concerto, La Valse à Margaux

 

The way he experiences music, his interpretation of it and above all his own music, which is based on melody, rhythm and harmony, has made Galliano famous and has enabled him to establish his frequently ignored and neglected instrument in classical as well as jazz music. His father being an accordion teacher, Richard Gall­ano has naturally been an accordion player from young age. He, like many others, was fascinated by Astor Piazzolla and his new tango. In 1983, Piazzolla invited Galliano to Comédie Française, where he played as a soloist on the bandoneon, the music Piazzolla wrote for Shakespeare’s “Midsummer’s Night Dream”. This marked the beginning of a friendship that lasted until the death of Piazzola in 1992.

Choral “Jesu bleibet meine Freude”

He is still alive and will remain so for ever …his suites, preludes, fugues, arias etc. are compositions which serve as inspiration to artists all over the world. Bringing together baroque and modern music? Why not, says the conceptual project leader Boštjan Gombač and continues: "/…/ The idea for the new project originates from an unselfish love for music in general, for Bach and jazz in particular. However, it is also well known that the Baroque period did not know the clarinet which means that composers could not write music for this instrument. How do compositions written for the violin, violoncello, organ, lute etc. sound when played on an instrument not existing in those times can only be imagined by those who are well acquainted with the sound of the clarinet. Everything follows exact rules that were handed down to us by the great master, one of the few composers who, many centuries before jazz, managed to come quite close to it. And at this point, two additional instruments, the double bass and the drums, enter in a manner typical of jazz.”

Johann David Heinichen: Concerto in D Major

Jan Dismas Zelenka: Hypochondria in A Major

Johann Friedrich Fasch: Concerto in G Major

Georg Phillipp Telemann: Orchestral suite in D Major

 

Il Fondamento was founded in 1989 by Paul Dombrecht, acting also as artistic director of this orchestra. In Europe and around the world they are known for being one of the leading performers of early music playing on period instruments. Apart from representing the in16 interpretations of known baroque compositions, the ensemble shows a particular interest in performing unpublished and unknown works due to the persistent research by Dombrecht. They often perform at their concerts many fascinating works never interpreted before. They have recorded a number of CDs and obtained one of the best international reviews for Fasch’s overture, issued at Fuga Libera Label as well as numerous prestigious awards and recognitions, such as: Diapason d’Or, four stars in music Le Monde, nomination as Pizzicato’s Supersonic and the best CD of the Month by Toccata and The Early Music Review. Although the ensemble is known for wandering outside the common lanes, Il Fondamento occasionally performs the larger works by Bach and the well known Oratorios by Händel.

Festival Closing Concert

 

CAMERATA BERN

ERICH HÖBARTH artistic leader

ANGELIKA KIRCHSCHLAGER – mezzosoprano

 

 

Programme:

Franz Joseph Haydn: Divertimento in E flat Major, Hob. II No. 6

Ottorino Respighi: Il Tramonto

* * *

Franz SchuberT

Five selected songs

– Du bist die Ruh

– Rastlose Liebe

– Geheimes

– Heidenröschen

– Ganymed

Antonin Dvořák: Serenade for Strings in E-Major Op. 22

 

Angelika Kirchschlager is said to have become an opera diva by coincidence. The world renowned mezzo-soprano and a regular guest of all most prominent opera stages around the globe initially studied piano, although piano had never really fully fascinated her and finally she gave up her further studies in piano. She knew that she wished to deal with music and to become either a music journalist or a critic. When she was 18, she took part with neither any particular ambitions nor formally educated voice in an audition at the Vienna Music Academy. All opera lovers can be grateful today that her life took her into that direction. Her first appearance in 1993 in Graz caused a real sensation in the media and in public. She sang an exceptionally difficult role for a mezzo-soprano: the young Octavian in Strauss’s The Cavalier of the Rose. The mezzo-soprano will be accompanied by Camerata Bern. The orchestra has developed during its over 40 years of existence into a highly acclaimed chamber orchestra made up of 14 musicians inspired by the idea of playing within a small flexible ensemble without a conductor. Under the artistic directorship of Erich Höbarth, born in Vienna, Camerata Bern offers a wide repertoire of music, ranging from the early Baroque to the more contemporary music.
