Extractions: KEYBOARD The Keyboard Chamber Music Area of the Moores School of Music offers coachings in two-piano and four-hand literature as well as literature with mixed instrumentation. Students of all levels are able to enroll; subsequently, their playing levels and interests are assessed and matched, creating the ideal learning environment. At the end of each semester, jury examinations are held in an open format, with all students enrolled present to serve as a supportive audience. Crossover coachings with other areas are encouraged so that students receive highly-detailed instruction. These coachings are coordinated by the chamber music area directors. An example of the product of crossover coaching is the Moores Piano Trio (Mikylah Myers - violin, Erika Johnson - cello, and Tomoko Isshiki, piano). This trio, having been coached by Cellist Laszlo Varga and Pianist Timothy Hester, achieved success on a national level by winning the silver medal in the 2000 Carmel Chamber Music Competition. Pre-formed groups are encouraged to enroll. For example, if a group would like to organize their own 'named' ensemble, they may work on approved literature and are encouraged to pursue national competitions and festivals to help establish future careers in chamber music.
Extractions: I have heard the future of Rachmaninoff pianists. His name is Jean-Yves Thibaudet. I've been aware of him being lauded as a great interpreter of Rachmaninoff, but have shied away from even listening to one of his recordings for a few years, because I feared the letdown would be too great, should he not live up to expectations (my breaking point came a couple of years ago, when I started hearing about this "wonderful new pianist, David Helfgott." I bought his CD of Rachmaninoff's Third Psycho That spiel off my chest; now back to Thibaudet: His understanding of Rachmaninoff is totally intuitive Thibaudet's performance of the Fourth Concerto exemplifies this observation. A very difficult piece to perform properly, this is the most satisfying recording I've heard of it, aside from the composer's own. Although the Fourth is generally thought of as a "heavy" concerto (especially as performed by Rachmaninoff and Ormandy), Thibaudet's touch is the very essence of light. He does not play with as heavy a hand as his accompanist, Vladimir Ashkenazy, did in his excellent 1984 recording with Bernard Haitink and the Concertgebouw Orchestra. Even the chordal progressions towards the end of the first movement

In honor of this anniversary, the University of Richmond, along with the Freer Gallery in Washington, D.C., commissioned a new work by Bright Sheng, which the Shanghai Quartet premiered in the spring of 2000. Beginning in 2001 the Shanghai Quartet will also be in residence as guest professors at the Shanghai Conservatory in China. Formed at the Shanghai Conservatory in 1983, the quartet took second place two years later representing its country at the Portsmouth International String Quartet competition (now the Long International competition). In 1987 the Quartet won the prestigious Chicago Discovery Competition and embarked on an extensive touring career. They have been Ensemble-in-Residence at the Tanglewood and Ravinia Festivals and have made several appearances at Lincoln Center's Mostly Mozart Festival and on its "Great Performers" series. After leaving China, The Shanghai Quartet was coached by the Tokyo String Quartet and the Vermeer Quartet. In addition, they were Graduate Ensemble-in-Residence at The Juilliard School, where they assisted the Juilliard String Quartet.

Extractions: Trinity Church, New York, NY Beginning on Thursday, July 5, Trinity Concerts is proud to present its free, ten week summer music festival, Vive La France . The concerts, celebrating 1,000 years of French music, will be held at Trinity Church Wall Street and will begin at one o'clock in the afternoon. A $2 donation is suggested to help defray production costs. While concertgoers will only see the results of his industry, Earl Tucker, head of Trinity's concert department, admits that this festival wasn't exactly easy in the making he describes it as a "daunting" project. Research began with the year 1100. "I had to try to make a festival that provided enough meat in ten weeks when, in fact, any single period of French music could have been given ten weeks on its own," says Tucker. Judging by the quality of performers, Tucker has done admirably. Ruth Laredo, "the First Lady of American piano," opens the festival with music by Maurice Ravel. September 6th's closing performance by New York Philomusica is of Messiaen's "Quartet for the End of Time," written when the composer was imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp "a prophetic ending," says Tucker.
