Extractions: Excerpted from Strings magazine, March 2004, No. 117 Daring Duos Triple-CD set captures excellent sonata pairings By Edith Eisler Brahms: The Duo Sonatas for Violin, Clarinet, Cello, and Piano . Christian Tetzlaff, violin, Sabine Meyer, clarinet, Boris Pergamenschikow, cello. Lars Vogt, piano. Three CDs (EMI Classics, 5-57524-2; 5-52525-2; 5-57526-2) Recorded live at the 2002 Heimbach Chamber Music Festival, this three-CD set brings together four superb artists whose traversal of all the Brahms sonatas (plus some Schumann and Berg) combines technical and ensemble perfection with the inspired spontaneity attainable only in live performance. Lars Vogt, the festival's artistic director, is a strong, empathetic partner throughout, though the recorded balance sometimes favors the piano and exaggerates dynamic contrasts. Boris Pergamenschikow's playing of the cello sonatas is distinguished by its stately austerity and concentrated expressiveness. His tone is dark, warm, sonorous, and pure; his style is aristocratic, combining long, flowing lines with leisurely phrasing and loving attention to detail. The first sonata is somber, passionate, and serene, with enough time to make every note count; the second movement lilts, the fugue is clear. The second sonata goes from exuberance to mystery and courtly grace. Schumann's "Fantasy Pieces" are lovely, but the "Romances," originally for oboe, sound uncomfortable on the cello; unlike the Adagio and Allegro for horn, this is surely not the composer's own transcription. A Brahms song as an encore sings warmly.

Extractions: Why , one year after Dorothy DeLay left us, would people be eager to participate in the Starling-DeLay Symposium on Violin Studies? What is so unique about her legacy? What was the transforming power behind her teaching? Itzhak Perlman conducts a master class in Paul Hall. (Photo by Nan Melville) With these questions in mind, 119 people flocked to the second biannual Starling-DeLay Symposium, which ran June 3-7 at The Juilliard School. The first symposium, held two years ago, launched an event that provides a wonderful opportunity for young artists, teachers, and professional violinists to gain insight into the teaching methods of Dorothy DeLay, and to explore new approaches to their own teaching and performance. This year's symposium differed in that Miss DeLay, who died in March 2002, was not present. One of the world's most renowned violin teachers of the 20th century, she taught at Juilliard for more than 50 years and was the holder of the School's Dorothy Richard Starling Chair in Violin. "Legacy of Learning 2003" honored the memory of Dorothy DeLay and her great contributions to violin teaching, performance, and pedagogy. The five-day symposium was devoted principally to the topic of teaching the exceptional young violinist. Exploring this issue was a series of master classes with a distinguished roster of soloists and teachers, including Itzhak Perlman (who now holds the Dorothy Richard Starling Chair in Violin Studies), Paul Kantor, Brian Lewis, Anne Akiko Meyers, Donald Weilerstein, Won-Bin Yim, David Kim, and Stephen Clappâall former students of Miss DeLay who are intimately familiar with her pedagogical methods and who utilize elements of her approach in their own teaching. Participating in the master classes were 10 exceptionally talented young artists, chosen from some 150 applicants. Ranging in age from 9 to 23, the group included young violinists from the U.S., France, and Canada. Each presented repertoire of his or her choice in three master classes. The young artists were also featured in evening recitals in Paul Hall.

Schwantner: Orchestral Music anne akiko meyers violin GREGORY HUSTIS French horn JAMES DIAZ organ. DALLAS SYMPHONYORCHESTRA ANDREW LITTON conductor http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/details/67493.asp
Extractions: Compact Disc CDA67493 Joseph Schwantner was born in Chicago in 1943 and is a prominent figure in American contemporary music, his works receiving many accolades including the Pulitzer Prize for Aftertones of Infinity, Friedheim Awards first prize for Music of Amber and a Grammy Award nomination in the category, Best New Classical Composition for A Sudden Rainbow. Until recently he was Professor of Music at Yale University. His music has been performed extensively worldwide and is commonly compared to the likes of Berg, Crumb, Messiaen and Debussy; however, the modern nature of his work should not scare people off as this is accessable music, powerfully emotive and cinematic in style, with luminous textures and dramatic imagery. A Sudden Rainbow is Schwantners earliest work on this disc and calls for amplified piano and celesta and gives a prominent role to pitched and unpitched percussion. Angelfire is written for and performed on this disc by violinist Anne Akiko Meyers and explores the unique expressive aspects of the violin. Again Schwantner requests that the solo instrument be amplified so that it can compete with the sonorities of such a large orchestra. The September Canticle was commissioned by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and written as a personal tribute to the victims of 9/11. The combination of menacing, chromatic tonal suspensions and a heart-wrenching melody from the strings enhances the powerful and poignant nature of this one-movement work.
