The Ambache At Ironmongers' Hall, Review By Stephen Pettitt The pianist Diana Ambache s two groups, the Ambache Orchestra and the AmbacheEnsemble, have a purpose they exist in order to fly the flag for neglected http://www.ambache.co.uk/Standard2.htm
Extractions: Return via your browser's Back button The pianist Diana Ambache's two groups, the Ambache Orchestra and the Ambache Ensemble, have a purpose: they exist in order to fly the flag for neglected women composers. Over the years they've been crucial in shifting perceptions and assumptions with their readings of fine works by the likes of Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn. But the two (piano-less) works by 20th century American women composers played in last night's concert, the second in a series called Old Masters, New Mistresses, were hardly unjustly unacknowledged masterpieces, though each was well-imagined and craftsmanlike. To be fair, each must have been chosen with due regard to the personnel required for the last piece, Poulenc's spikey-warm Piano and Wind Sextet. What we heard might, therefore, not have been truly representative of its composer. Thus Mary Howe's four-movement Wind Quintet of 1957 combined a light, though undeniably refined, Romantic manner with a neo-classicism redolent of Hindemith and a gentle angularity that might have come from 1920s Stravinsky. I was not surprised to learn from the programme note that she had studied with Nadia Boulanger, a woman who had a hand in forming the talents of a host of 20th century greats. And the better known Ruth Crawford Seeger's three movement Suite for Wind Quintet of 1952 stemmed from Schoenbergian roots but was still, for the most part, a lightish, even mischievous confection, rather than a statement of something deep or a recognition of anything very seaching.

Extractions: Although a long term UK resident, his compositional influences are transatlantic. He comments: "I have lived in Britain since 1974 but my musical heroes remain American: I admire Charles Ives's unapologetic juxtaposition of vernacular music and the avant-garde, Henry Cowell's irreverent use of fist and arm clusters, the propulsive energy of minimalism and John Cage's radical dictum that 'all sound is music’”. As a "virtuoso pianist" [New York Times] he has recorded for all the major European radio networks, performed at Carnegie Hall, London's Queen Elizabeth Hall and Paris's Centre Pompidou. In 1985 he formed a duo with pianist Philip Mead, Montague/Mead Piano Plus which tours internationally. He also collaborates with the sculptor, Maurice Agis, providing multi-channel electroacoustic sound environments for his giant inflatable sculptures, Colourspace and Dreamspace Montague has recently had Composer Portrait Compact discs of his works are available on ASV (UK), Continuum (NZ), Centaur (USA), Point Records (USA) and others. In addition to music he is an active cyclist and tennis player (the former Florida Junior College Tennis Champion).

Stephen Hough - Reviews - Chamber Music Stephen Hough @ Melba hall, September 1 2004. pianist Stephen Hough is no strangerto Melbourne; our established concertgiving bodies have sponsored his http://www.chambermusic.co.nz/reviews/253.php
Extractions: This review is of Stephen's performance at Australia's Melba Hall in September 2004. Stephen Hough @ Melba Hall, September 1 2004 Pianist Stephen Hough is no stranger to Melbourne; our established concert-giving bodies have sponsored his tours for many years and currently he is collaborating with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in a Mozart piano concerto at Monash and Hamer Hall concerts. Fortunately, the Impresaria organisation swooped on the occasion and presented Hough in recital format at Melba Hall in a program that gave full rein to his ability to balance substantial Romantic works with flighty (if not flimsy) virtuosic pieces. For an opening gambit, we heard the Berg Sonata and then Schubert's G Major Sonata, each work representing the finest in keyboard products from the two Viennese schools. Distinguished as his Opus 1, Berg's one-movement work presents a serious challenge to any interpreter, principally that of sustaining its rhetorical tenion. A richly chromatic construct with a perpetually shifting tonal focus, this sonata found a willing exponent in Hough who treated its ages as a solid essay woven from one fabric, rising to a massive climax before dying away in its home-tonality of B minor. The G Major Schubert sonata enjoys few performances, perhaps because pianists see it as too easy, not melodious enough, possessing a static and repetitive quality in its first movement. Hough gave a luminous reading of this splendid work, one that holds just as much of the composer's optimistic ruefulness as more popular works like the later A Major and earlier D Major sonatas. One moment to be carried away from the night with particular pleasure came in the third movement's trio, an impeccable exhibition of control of touch and emotional empathy.

Rachmaninov: The Piano Concertos Recorded at the Eugene McDermott Concert hall, Morton H Meyerson Symphony Stephen Hough is a pianist of immense finesse, who is incapable of playing a http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/details/67501.asp
Extractions: Ever since we started working with Stephen in 1996 recording these concertos has been on the agenda: its probably been the project closest to his heart. But it took several years before we found the orchestra and conductor that we felt would do justice to this important project. The combination of Dallas and Litton offers a conductor who adores Rachmaninov (he has recorded all the symphonies) and understands the works from a pianists perspective, an orchestra with a glorious and old-fashioned string sound of the kind with which the composer would be familiar, a hall to record in which is one of the best in the world, and lets not forget Stephen Hough who has already won two Gramophone Record of the Year accolades for his concerto recordings. As the results here triumphantly show, all our hopes have been fulfilled, and more. Apart from the Paganini Rhapsody, recorded after a concert performance, these are essentially live recordings. Over a period of eighteen days eleven concerts were given, with each concerto being played several times. From these we have pieced together an ideal performance free of coughs, noises and the few musical mishaps which occurred, but still capturing the excitement of what was, by common consent, a sensational series of concerts.

Extractions: The pieces to be featured: Vanishing Time will be performed by Bruce Gustafson (harpsichord) and the New York Camerata Quartet (string quartet). The piece received its world premiere on Feb. 26, 2000, and was performed by the Camerata of New York with Bruce Gustafson, harpsichord. Vanishing Time , "Although continuous, it is built around three main sections with a brief prologue and epilogue which are related to each other. Somewhere in the midst of composing the second section, I began to associate it with the idea of 'water.' Reflecting on the already composed first section, I immediately thought of 'earth.' 'Air' seemed like the logical completion of this trio of images." French Harpsichord Music of the 17th Century has become the standard reference work it its field. He is the president of the Society for Seventeenth-Century Music. Tobias Picker's Tres sonetos de amor will be performed by Judith Bettina (soprano) and James Goldsworthy (piano). The duo originally premiered the work Nov. 11.
