About Us Our Season Tickets Past Artists ... Home Past Artists Established in 1892 as the Tuesday Morning Musical Club, Tuesday Musical's first concerts were held in local homes and the Fontenelle Hotel ballroom. After 1911 it expanded into local theaters and emerged as a non-profit concert series of international artists, open to all. Many of the artists, unknown at the time of their engagement here, have since become legend; some have been relegated to oblivion, but all contributed in some measure to the musical life of Omaha. It has been estimated that in the first 70 years following the change from club to non-profit organization, Tuesday Musical brought 95 percent of the world's greatest artists to Omaha. Here is a partial list of artists who have been part of this pioneer endeavor: Charles Wakefield Cadman, pianist Paul Kennedy Harper Max Landow, pianist Eugene Ysaye, violinist Raphael Navas, pianist Harold Bauer, pianist Louise Homer, contralto Zoellner String Quartet Pavley and Oukrainsky, Russian dancers Leopold Godowsky

43. Benjamin Intartaglia Jelly Roll Morton specialist, the excellent jazz pianist Butch Thompson. Ethel Leginska, Teresa Carreno, guiomar novaes, Vladimir de Pachmann, http://www.ragtime.nu/intartaglia.htm

Benjamin Intartaglia Benjamin Intartaglia was born on April 3, 1981, in Paris, France. He started to play piano at the age of 5, and organ at age 12. Here is Benjamin's biographical sketch in his own words: My passion for ragtime music is recent although I have listened to it since a very early age because my father often listened to the famous movie soundtrack of "The Sting" , featuring Scott Joplin's music. At age 5, despite my deafness, I started to attend music courses, initially with a young and passionate jazz piano player and next at the conservatory. When an organist visited my primary school to speak about his passion and profession, he invited us to hear him play at his own Great Organ at the Jacques Decour lyceum chapel. Since then I've been interested in the "pope of the instruments", as Franz Liszt called the great organ. After completing organ courses (with improvisation, graduated in organ at age 18 composition, and accompaniment-related subjects), I graduated in organ at 18. After being titularized (made a church's head organist) at age 16 at the Saint-Jean Bosco church in Paris, France, I discontinued my professional organ activities in 1999. Now, although I play organ only for fun from time to time (when I'm not busy with other music activities), I'm always delighted to hear my organ colleagues when they play for recitals or concerts.

44. Article On Maryla Jonas, In Newsweek, 1946. 25 Maryla Jonas was just another refugee pianist making a Carnegie Hall debut . produced the English Myra Hess and the Brazilian guiomar novaes. http://users.bigpond.net.au/nettheim/jonas/newsweek.htm

Nettheim home page Index of Jonas items [This article appeared in Newsweek , 8 April 1946, pages 84, 86. This web version is dated 21 September 2004. She Shall Make Music Par 1 On Feb. 25 Maryla Jonas was just another refugee pianist making a Carnegie Hall debut. On March 30, frightened and nervous, she sat behind the biggest, blackest eight-ball in New York. Came the morning of March 31 and she awoke, more bewildered than ever, to find that she had become the most sensational story of the 1945-46 music season. Par 2 That this could all happen in the short space of 34 days is naturally a tribute to indisputable artistry. But it is also a telling reminder of the power of the New York critics. Miss Jonas was so unknown when she made her debut that Carnegie Hall contained only the barest handful of listeners. It is the policy of the New York newspapers, however, to review practically every Carnegie or Town Hall debut, major or minor, promising or unpromising. Par 3 Par 4 On the strength of Bohm's review and the strong support given his stand by the afternoon papers, Miss Jonas was immediately signed to a contract by the Metropolitan Musical Bureau, a part of Columbia Concerts, biggest bookers in the business. A second concert was scheduled for March 30. Would the New York Times, which had been caught off base by not printing a review of the debut, agree with The Tribune and thus guarantee Miss Jonas as a "must" to every local impresario all over the United States? Or would The Times disagree and thus cast doubt on the discovery of a new star? And could Miss Jonas, a sensitive artist and a frightened foreigner unused to American methods of marketing music, stand the strain and play as well the second time as she had the first?

M y passion for ragtime music is recent although I have listened to it since a very early age because my father often listened to the famous movie soundtrack of The Sting, featuring Scott JOPLIN 's music. A t age 5, despite my deafness, I started to attend music courses, initially with a young and passionate jazz piano player and next at the conservatory. A t that time, I wasn't interested in ragtime or even jazz. My music education is traditional, and my idols were (and still are) Johann-Sebastian BACH and Antonio VIVALDI. During my music education, I've been successively interested in other great composers, especially during my harmonical courses for their original harmonic progressions: Richard WAGNER, Léo DELIBES, César FRANCK, Max REGER, Johann Jakob FROBERGER and Rudolf FRIML. W hen an organist visited my primary school to speak about his passion and profession, he invited us to hear him play at his own Great Organ at the Jacques Decour lyceum chapel. Since that time I've been interested in the " pope of the instruments," as Franz Liszt called the great organ.

In the unpublished article Bresilien Music I arrived in Brazil just in the middle of the carnaval. It is a time during which popular mirth bursts forth with a violence undreamed of by Europeans accustomed to the three days of festivity of a carnaval in Nice or Aix, interrupted by the sternness of Ash Wednesday giving way to Lent. In Brazil three days are not enough. During the months preceding a carnaval, one organizes it. Clubs are founded, a group of friends decides that they will remain together during the carnaval festivities and thus forms a committee with a president, a vice-president, a secretary and a treasurer. The major part of their savings goes into the making or the renting of gorgeous costumes, in which ostrich feathers play an important part. For several weeks on Saturday evenings these small clubs sing and dance along the streets; they take part in the popular dances held in public squares or enter the dance halls. In the country these same groups, seated on floats covered with foliage, sing their favorite songs on the roads, accompanied by the different instruments indispensable to all carnavalesque clubs.

[Note: Clavier Magazine is supposed to publish this article in early 1997. As they accepted it in 1992, it seems that their scheduling is a little behind. Read it here first. A.E.] At the piano with Ignaz Friedman, by Allan Evans. Friedman's introduction to teaching came as he assisted for four years his own teacher, Theodor Leschetizky (1830-1915), himself a pupil of Beethoven's pupil Czerny. Daily contact with Leschetizky sharpened Friedman's pedagogical abilities even further. Friedman witnessed how his Professor adopted a unique approach to each talent, broadening their playing and refining it into mastery. Friedman recalled : "He was probably the last of the great artists who knew how to unite the sovereign and the Bohemian in one and the same person. He was one of the teachers who knew, who knew positively , when the student had ceased to be a student and had become an artist. Then the man who the day before had played the part of a veritable tyrant, would show himself the day after in the role of an old colleague, ready to consult on a footing of equality with his erstwhile pupil. Though he might have thrown a volume of music at his pupil's head a few hours before, once he felt that the former had crossed the boundary line which separated him from artistic maturity, he would discuss the most delicate nuances of his art with him in the most loyal and open-hearted manner, and permit him to take all sorts of liberties. All this merely because he realized that what had been merely grape juice was turning into wine."

GEORGE SZELL 1897-1970 George Szell was born in Budapest on June 7, 1897 and was taken to Vienna at the age of three. Szell studied piano there with Richard Robert and gave his first public concert as an infant prodigy at eleven. George Seell first appeared as a conductor at sixteen, leading the Vienna Symphony Orchestra in a summer concert at Bad Kissingen when the regular conductor was indisposed. Szell performed as a conductor, pianist, and composer at a concert of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra the following year. It was at this time that Richard Strauss appointed him to the conductorial staff of the Berlin State Opera after hearing him play his own piano transcription of " Till Eulenspiegel." He remained in Berlin as assistant to Strauss for two years, and on Strauss' recommendation he succeeded Otto Klemperer as principal conductor of the Strasborg Municipal Theatre. In 1921, at the age of 24, he became principal conductor of the Court Theatre in Darmstadt, and a similar position at the Municipal Theatre in Dusseldorf followed. From 1924 to 1929 he was chief conductor of the Berlin State opera and of the Symphony Orchestra of the Berlin Broadcasting Company. He also was a member of the faculty of the famous Hochschule fur Musik in Berlin. In 1929 he went to Prague to become General Musical Director of the German Opera House and the Philharmonic Concerts and Professor at the Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts. At this period of his career he began to make guest appearances as guest conductor, leading most of the great orchestras of Europe and, in 1930 and 1931, journeying to America for extensive engagements with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra

Program Locations Argentina Austria Bolivia Brazil Chile Canada Costa Rica Dominican Republic Ecuador France Germany Greece Guatemala Italy Mexico Peru Portugal Puerto Rico Russia Spain Switzerland Venezuela Music and Dance The African musical influence is very strong in Brazil and is found in the instruments, rhythms, and dances that are enjoyed there. The most familiar African instruments are various large drums, two-toned agogo bells, a variety of rattles, and bowed instruments with a resonating gourd attached. Another popular African instrument is the friction drum, which is a metal drum with a leather head that is punctured by a stick wrapped in a wet cloth and moved up and down, making a haunting sound. Much African music is used to accompany dances that are included in rituals. The drums are considered sacred, and the drummer plays a very important role in the rituals. The most popular dance in Brazil, the samba, comes from African rhythms and movements. The music for the samba is usually played on African-derived instruments but might also include brass instruments and guitars. Each region of Brazil has its own form of samba. The best time to experience the music and dance of Brazil is during Carnival. This is a pre-Lenten festival in which groups of people dress in elaborate costumes and parade through the streets. The celebration usually begins with marches with lyrics that praise women and criticize the government. Members of different samba schools gather and enter the parade, dancing their samba down the street and singing their school song, accompanied by large drums.

59. Sorabji.com: February 12, 2003 - Cheating With The Classics (Like maybe he would have let the pianist grab that DSharp with the left hand, I recently bought the guiomar novaes recordings of the Chopin Etudes http://www.sorabji.com/whois/readthestories/2003/02/12/

Wander around sorabji.com: SORABJI.com Piano music BBS Pipes Foundcrap Road Trip, 2002 The Face Server The Punchline Server My pager Soundcrap February 12, 2003 mark thomas Visitors to the Sorabji.com/Mark A. Thomas household tonight would have heard me practicing Chopin's Nocturne in E Minor, Op. 72 , and Chopin's Etude, Op. 10 #1 . (Click to listen with RealAudio) I wonder if any pianists who played this Etude ever reached up with their left hand to hit that D Sharp on the fourth beat of measure 8? It's sure tempting now that the idea has crossed my mind, but I don't think I'd do it. You'd need the pedal there to hold the octave on the bottom, but it's right at the spot where a quick change of pedal has to happen (even if it's not indicated in the score). It would be almost Victor Borge-like to see someone hit that high E in Measure 48 with the left hand. Har dee har har, but I do know how to amuse myself. I laughed about this while practicing tonight, imagining a pianist reaching up with the left hand to pluck all those unaccompanied high notes in this piece. I think of the Op 10 #1 Etude as militaristic. I have played it since high school, but picked it up again recently after not touching it for many years. I'm going to work through all the Chopin Etudes between now and this summer. I decided to start with Op. 10 #1 from scratch, but got psyched out by it when I read that Horowitz considered it the hardest of all the Chopin Etudes. Horowitz himself never recorded it, and complained that Chopin would have changed many things about this and other of the Etudes if he had written them for a modern Steinway. (Like maybe he would have let the pianist grab that D-Sharp with the left hand, dammit...)
