BUT THE DARING! GORDON RUMSON reports on a Paul Badura-Skoda recital in Calgary The eminent Viennese pianist and scholar is currently on a wide ranging tour of North America. His stop-over in Calgary coincided with a ferocious cold snap (minus 29C) but this hardly daunted the seventy-five year old master pianist. A part of a symposium on Schubert held at the University of Calgary, Paul Badura-Skoda gave a brief lecture outlining some connections between Schubert's songs and instrumental works. His observations reminded us that it is crucial and also valuable to study the songs. They provide important insights into instrumental music as well. For all that, far more significant was the superb recital played the following night. The first half of the concert was played upon an 1822 Broadwood and Sons piano provided by the Cantos Music Foundation. In almost original condition the instrument was both visually beautiful and aurally satisfying. The second half of the concert was performed upon a modern Yamaha concert grand. It may be thought that Paul Badura-Skoda, long associated with period performance, period instruments and the Classical era is 'merely' a fortepianist. Nothing could be further from the truth. Indeed, I think that for all of the interest in the Classical masters (and I consider his recording of the Op 106

South American Belle A portrait of Clara Rodriguez by BILL NEWMAN This whole business of placing a concert pianist in a special category may spell taboo to piano buffs, but the thoroughly vivacious Venezuelan-born Clara Rodriguez has several unusual slants to her artistry. And a growing number of appetizing programmes, all containing intriguing titles to whet people's appetites and dissuade them from returning home afterwards. The desirable alternative is to camp out in the precincts of London's Bolivar Hall, adjacent to Tottenham Court Road and its constant flow of traffic leading down from Warren Street Tube Station! Her Liszt was persuasively different to other artists' unleashing of tonal forces with portentious architectural exaggerations pummeling the listener's senses into a state of nullified submission. It was reflective and tender, each new subject and harmonic strand treated with natural respect, and a visionary understanding of their correct place within the whole. One didn't require to express plaudits following it, but just to give thanks for revealing the music's inner message. Meanwhile, Clara's investigations into new repertoire and ideas grew along with the tours abroad. The Latin American continent features strongly in the music of Ernesto Lecuona, recorded for Meridian

Sign up for our e-mail bulletin Contact us Return to main Faculty Biographies - Paul Badura-Skoda Paul Badura-Skoda Piano Paul Badura-Skoda is one of the most important pianists of our time. He is a legendary artist who has been heard in all the world's greatest concert halls, and for years was the pianist who had the largest number of recordings available on the market. His musical personality is characterized by complete immersion in music, a passionate search for the essential, and a sense of artistic responsibility. It soon becomes evident to any listener that he loves music with every part of his being. In 1945, Badura-Skoda entered the Vienna Conservatory, and two years later won first prize in the Austrian Music Competition and a scholarship which allowed him to study with Edwin Fischer. These years laid the foundation for Badura-Skoda's artistic future. In 1949, Wilhelm Furtwangler and Herbert von Karajan became aware of Badura-Skoda's outstanding talent, and invited him to play concerts. Practically overnight the young Viennese pianist became a world-famous artist.

Now in his seventies, Badura-Skoda’s skills and prolific memory seemed to be undimmed by time, He managed to perform a gigantic program consisting of Mozart’s Fantasie in C Minor, K. 475, Haydn’s Sonata No. 46 in A-flat, Frank Martin’s Fantasie sur des rhythmes flamenco and Beethoven’s Op. 111. This is a program that would be daunting to someone half his age. Also, he managed to charm his audience with generous and entertaining remarks about the music he was performing. This is the first time I had ever heard his speaking voice, and I am pleased to report that he has a perfect command of the English language (unlike that other Austrian, our new State Governor, who has a perfect command of broken English). It was interesting that his Mozart and Haydn playing seemed more in the style of Beethoven than Mozart and Haydn, but this was Badura-Skoda making a valid point here that these works do contain the aggressive boldness that we associate with Beethoven.

This review has been kindly sponsored by Singapore Symphonia Company. by Chia Han-Leon I decided to attend this concert to hear the considerably-lauded Concerto for Orchestra by Lutoslawski, who died only three years ago. Born in 1913, here is a man who lived through some of the most jolting years of human existence, an experience which, I must admit, I'm not extremely keen to share. I also admit that I've never heard the work, so this review is more of a review of a first-time encounter with Lutoslawski and "one of [his] most accessible works" (according to the programme notes). The dark, pounding beginning reminded me of Brahms's first, with a forbidding theme on the celli, interspersed with flashes of light as the music climbs its way through the higher strings. What struck me as interesting were these "flashes of light" among the darker strains of the score these form a shifting wave of light and dark modes, constantly modulating. The movement builds up its material to several climaxes before ending quietly with the chiming "ding... ding..." of bells. Whizzing, insect-buzz like string writing begins the next movement; the composer's bold orchestration returning via the brass before the movement ends with strings

Ludwig van Beethoven Piano Sonatas: An Overview of Selected Recordings By Ron Drummond [The following survey of Beethoven sonata recordings, written in 1996, was never intended to be comprehensive. It was meant as a survey of selected recordings. There were numerous famous recordings that I deliberately chose not to include, some because they were already known quantities and others because at the time I was not yet sufficiently familiar with them to comment. The recordings I did survey struck me then, and still strike me now, as being important and significant and worthy of your consideration. Ron Drummond, 9/23/04] Any complete recording of a cycle as diverse as Beethoven's is going to be uneven, period. You will not find a be-all end-all. Nevertheless, I do think it's useful to have a complete recording by one artist, for the insights a single, refined sensibility can bring to Beethoven across the full range of his sonatas. But one should also consider supplementing a complete recording with additional recordings of individual sonatas by various performers. Of complete sets, I highly recommend Richard Goode on Elektra/Nonesuch. Goode has been praised in almost all quarters as perhaps the finest surveyor of Beethoven's sonatas since Schnabel. He has all the chops and a wealth of feeling and insight to convey. The recording is state of the art. Though superb throughout, Goode is at his best in Sonatas 12-18.

INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS MANAGEMENT HOME INSTRUMENTALISTS CONDUCTORS ENSEMBLES ... CONTACT P A U L B A D U R A - S K O D A Originally he wanted to become an engineer but luckily he changed his mind. Nowadays, he is applauded in all the world´s great concert halls, from Carnegie Hall in New York to the Golden Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna. He makes extensive concert tours on all continents, plays with leading orchestras and can be found in the recording studios of the celebrated record companies. In either words, Paul Badura-Skoda is one of the most important pianists of our time. One thing has remained with him from his early professional interests - the desire to 'look behind the scenes', to understand the functioning and the impact of great musical works and, in playing them, to make the preception accessible to others. In this critical appraisal first editions and autographs are compared, the text deviations investigated and historical instruments are used. Not only does he play music, he also reflects on it, producing numerous cadenzas to Mozart concerti and style-sensitive completions of unfinished works by Mozart and Schubert. The musical personality of Badura-Skoda is characterized by complete immersion in music, a passionate search for the essential and a sense of artistic responsibility, but not in a technical or academical sense. 'Paul Badura-Skoda makes us feel something which is rare in a professional musician - that he loves music with every part of his being', a critic once said.
