JAKOB GIMPEL: A BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY by Peter Gimpel (Earlier versions of this article appeared previously in the booklet notes to "Jakob Gimpel at Ambassador Auditorium [vol. 1]: All-Chopin Recital - May 11th, 1978," published in 1996 by Cambria Master Recordings; and in the Jewish Press of New York (September and October, 1990). Permission to include previously published portions of this article is gratefully acknowledged.) In 1938, having timely taken heed of the tragic developments which were to culminate in the Holocaust, he emigrated with his wife Mimi (my mother) to the United States, never again to see his parents, who perished in the Holocaust along with more than thirty other known relatives, or his older brother Karol (a gifted pianist and conductor), who was said to have died of "dysentery" in a Soviet prison. Unknown in America, and unadept at the musical powerplay that characterized the New York "scene", my father took up residence in Los Angeles, where he supported his family through teaching and recording for "the studios," a routine punctuated by occasional concerts across the U.S. When the great Soviet Jewish violinist David Oistrakh invited my father to tour the Soviet Union in 1963, American management (without whose assistance such a tour could not be arranged) first promised, then declined to send him, or subsequently to include him in a cultural exchange program. Incredibly, my father never appeared in any major American music festival, or with any major U.S. symphony, excepting Pittsburgh, Boston and Los Angeles. Despite the clamorous success of his 1968 "debut" at the Los Angeles Music Center, playing the Chopin f minor Concerto with Zubin Mehta conducting, New York remained closed to him. As late as 1985, the National Symphony Orchestra turned down a private offer to bring him to Washington D.C.

document.write(code); Fresh Prince Joshua Bell on composition, hyperviolins, and the future by David Templeton Joshua Bell admits it: He's always loved technology. "Computers, video games, special effects," he says, "for me, it's all fun. I like playing around with new possibilities, so when it comes to technology and music —well, let's just say I have a pretty open mind." An open mind. Anyone attempting to unite the magic of modern technology with the glories of classical music would have to have an open mind, as the classical music world is notoriously suspicious of newfangled inventions and other "improvements." But if anyone can change the world, it's Bell. Legend has it that Bell, 34, received his first violin before the age of five, after his parents noticed his habit of stretching rubber bands over the handles of dresser drawers, plucking and strumming the self-designed "instruments" to make his own, brand-new kind of string music. That knack for tinkering is probably at the root of Bell's interest in modern technology, which has found a place in his current work with composer Tod Machover at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. At MIT, Bell is helping Machover—who the

Faking the Orgasm By Mr. Pronto Allegro FIRST PUBLISHED IN THE TRIBUNE , OCT 1991. Simon Green is only 19 but he has power in his hands. He is gifted with the skills of centuries in recreating great violins - or to put it more accurately, great violin fakes. Simon is one of an increasing number of Australians to have been accepted at the Rubato School of Violin Making in Cremona, Italy. It is in fact only a few streets away from the famous Cremonese School founded in 1560, and just opposite `The Strad' take-way pizza restaurant. Cremona is the birthplace of the 17th Century Stradivari violin and this town consequently has become the name to be reckoned with when we think of the great contemporary fake violin makers. Ms Wanna Zambelini is director of Rubato and she is most impressed with the high standard of fake `Strads', `Amatis' and `Guarneris' being cranked out world wide in the last few years, and particularly the output from Australia. Its impossible to tell now the difference between a Cremo fake and an Ozi fake, she exudes as we stand in front of the beautiful (and is it really so decaying or are those `fake' cracks in the side of his face?) badly crafted bust of Antonio Stradivarius himself. The reason why we still attract so many students here is because we have the edge in marketing skills. An authentic address is the other drawcard. Sitting on a plastic carving stool at

The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth , known for its religious tolerance as a "Jewish paradise", attracted numerous Jews who fled persecution from other European countries. Poland soon became a major spiritual and cultural center for Ashkenazi Jewry, and Polish Jews contributed strongly to Polish cultural, economic and political life.

CREDITS Chamber Music in Israel Ora Binur Chamber music is the most intimate medium in classical music and its attraction lies in its clarity. Chamber music developed in parallel with the wave of virtuosity that swept Europe in the 19th century. The pianist Franz Liszt was the first person who appeared in a solo recital and it was also he who initiated the sideways position, sitting in profile so that the audience could see his fingers flying over the keys. But the greatest acrobatic ability of all was that of the Italian violinist Niccolo Paganini, whose playing was so amazing in its speed, accuracy and emotional power, that rumours circulated that he was in league with the devil. But while musicians were demonstrating acrobatic control on one instrument, intimate chamber music was also developing for trios, quartets and quintets and even for sextets and octets. Of all these groupings, the peak of them all was considered the string quartet. Haydn was called "The father of the quartet" and it was he who shaped its classic form as well as influencing other chamber music groupings. Chamber music, developing in tandem with the development of the symphony orchestra, was the most important form for the composer to express his own personal emotions. and the different groupings played an important role in this form of expression. In chamber music there is an emotional dialogue among the instruments, and great stylistic unity is required from all the performers.

TV Notes for other telecasts LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER January 14, 2004, 8:00 p.m. on PBS at the Penthouse I first met Joshua Bell some 20 years ago in Charleston, South Carolina at the annual Spoleto Festival. He was then a teenager, but already a force to be reckoned with. Playing with some of the hallowed names of the concert stage, he already had the distinguishing characteristics of a superb artist: impeccable technique, a distinctive sound, and a questioning musical mind. A native of Bloomington, Indiana, where his psychiatrist father and pianist mother were faculty members of Indiana University, Joshua had made his debut as a soloist with the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra in 1975at the age of 7! Another member of Indiana University's faculty at the time was the renowned violinist and pedagogue, Josef Gingold. Gingold had studied with the great Belgian violinist Eugene Ysaye (who became Conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra early in the 20th century), before settling into a life as an orchestral musician, first in Toscanini's NBC Symphony Orchestra and later as concertmaster of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and the Cleveland Orchestra. But it was as a teacher that Gingold achieved his greatest prominence; he became Joshua Bell's most important musical influence and inspiration, and Gingold, in turn, recognized a brilliant talent in in the young man. Joshua Bell first came to national attention as the grand prize winner in the Seventeen Magazine/General Motors National Concerto Competition, which led to his debut, at the age of 14, with Riccardo Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra. That was the beginning of a career that has taken him to every important concert stage the world oveJr in the ensuing two decades. Today, at the age of 36, he is generally recognized as one of the master violinists of our time.

The story behind a very special commission Judy Hurtig Lyric Suite Having won a coveted seat in the Vienna Philharmonic, Felix was never able claim it because with the rise of the Nazis in Austria, Jews were suddenly banned from playing in the orchestra. Sensing the growing disaster which was about to descend on Europe and particularly its Jews, violinist Bronislaw Huberman urged Jewish musicians to come to Palestine where he was forming the Palestine Orchestra which eventually became the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. Felix and his sister, violist Renee Galimir, heard the call and fled. When Toscanini took up the baton for the inaugural concert of the Palestine Orchestra on December 26, 1936, Felix Galimir was a member of the band. From 1954 until his death Felix spent his summers at the Marlboro Music Festival, playing with Rudolf and Peter Serkin, Pablo Casals, Yo-Yo Ma, Emanuel Ax, Richard Goode, Benita Valente and members of the Guarneri, Cleveland, Emerson, Orion and many other quartets, in addition to hundreds of younger musicians, many of whom went on to distinguished careers as chamber musicians. People often talk of the Marlboro Music Festival as the place where chamber music was born and nurtured in the United States. Marlboro was still an infant when Felix showed up. Shortly after his death, Richard and I were in Hancher listening to Yo-Yo Ma play the

IPO website IPO History document.getElementById("table3").style.display="block"; ICM Artists document.getElementById("table3").style.display="block"; Steven J. Sherman Since its inception in 1936, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (originally named the Palestine Orchestra) has been dedicated to presenting the world’s greatest music to audiences in Israel and the world. Founded by the outstanding Polish violinist, Bronislaw Huberman, the IPO represents the culmination of his dream “to unite the desire of the country for an orchestra with the desire of the Jewish musicians for a country.” Huberman spent countless hours arranging for first-chair musicians of Eastern European and German orchestras, who had lost their jobs as a result of Nazism, to migrate to Palestine. In doing so, Huberman created an “orchestra of soloists” that under the esteemed leadership of Maestro Zubin Mehta, Music Director for Life, continues to provide vital inspiration to the people of Israel. From the outset, world-renowned soloists and conductors have performed with the IPO. Its inaugural concert was played under the baton of Arturo Toscanini who felt his participation was a means to demonstrate his opposition to Fascism. Since that time, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra has enjoyed associations with such renowned artists as Leonard Bernstein, Laureate Conductor of the IPO, and Kurt Masur, Honorary Guest Conductor of the IPO. Other celebrated artists to perform with the Orchestra are Daniel Barenboim, Yefim Bronfman, Yo-Yo Ma, Midori, Shlomo Mintz, Itzhak Perlman, Jean-Pierre Rampal, Arthur Rubinstein, Gil Shaham, Isaac Stern, Maxim Vengerov, Pinchus Zukerman and many others. Their contributions of time and talent have enriched the cultural life of Israel and have helped the Orchestra to maintain the highest artistic standards.

Dance Classical Talent Theater Contemporary Comedy Special Attractions ... Talent : Profile Israel Philharmonic Orchestra The Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, which celebrated its 60th anniversary during 1996, is one of lsrael's oldest and most influential cultural institutions. Its history is inextricably bound with that of the nation itself: on May 14, 1948, the orchestra performed the Israeli national anthem, "Hatikvah," at the official ceremony that declared Israel a sovereign and independent State. Today, as Israel marks its 50th anniversary, the orchestra continues to play a central role in the country's collective life. Music Director Zubin Mehta, who has held this post for three decades, has remarked: "These musicians play for audiences that can't do without them." The founding of the Israel Philharmonic, originally called the Palestine Orchestra, by famed Polish violinist and humanist Bronislaw Huberman in 1936 predated the founding of the State of Israel by twelve years. Its establishment affirmed the importance of music in a land that still faced years of danger and uncertainty before emerging as an independent nation. The ensemble's first concert took place on December 26, 1936, and was conducted by the legendary Arturo Toscanini, himself an impassioned spokesman for freedom. He led "an orchestra of soloists" - first-chair musicians from German and Eastern European orchestras who had lost their positions because of Nazism and were recruited by Huberman to join the new ensemble. The orchestra's early tours of Arab lands - to Egypt (within only a few weeks of its founding) and to Lebanon - reflected the founders' hopes that the new ensemble would serve as an ambassador of goodwill.

U of T Home In memoriam: Professor emeritus Lorand Fenyves Fenyves an inspiration to those his life touched April 5, 2004 Professor Emeritus Lorand Fenyves of the Faculty of Music died March 23 while travelling in Switzerland. He was 86 years old. Born in Budapest in 1918, Fenyves first visited Canada in 1962 as a coach for Les Jeunesses Musicales at Mount Orford. In 1965 he joined U of T's Faculty of Music as a visiting lecturer and subsequently became professor of violin. He retired in 1983 but remained active and maintained a full teaching schedule up until his death. In 1988 he established a scholarship to provide financial assistance to a gifted string student in the faculty's performance program. "Lorand single-handedly created a generation of string professionals in Canada," said Professor David Beach, dean of the Faculty of Music. "Every orchestra or chamber group in Canada has benefited from his vision and musicality." Fenyves received his early musical education in Budapest where he graduated with honours from the Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Well before his graduation he had already embarked on a concert career that included, at the age of 13, an appearance as soloist under conductor Felix von Weingartner. On the eve of the Second World War he left behind an established reputation in Europe to become concertmaster of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra at the invitation of its founder, Bronislaw Huberman, the great Polish violinist and humanist. In 1957 he returned to Europe to take over the same position with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande in Geneva. During this period he also performed extensively with orchestras and in recitals throughout Europe.
