|
 | ||
| Sage: Hall One, Gateshead, Gateshead, United Kingdom Sunday 9-Jun-13 07:30pm The Romantic Symphony 4 May 1841, and Clara Schumann could hear her husband at work on his Fourth Symphony. “I know it is emerging from the bottom of his heart’ she wrote.” In fact, her husband was writing Clara into the piece: in the delicately winding string and bassoon theme of the work’s opening, Schumann purposefully captured their fragile but heartfelt love. The distinct, mature colouring of Brahms’s final symphony brings our season-long double portrait of Brahms and Schumann to a close. | ||

| Snape Maltings Concert Hall, Snape IP17 1SP, United Kingdom Thursday 13-Jun-13 07:30pm Songs from the Same Earth Pairing Britten’s only German song collection with Schumann acknowledges his debt to one of the grand masters of Romantic lieder. But while Schumann’s magnifi cent cycle creates a large canvas on which to draw his protagonist’s desires and despair, Britten’s is a miracle of concision where every phrase is potent, every song a fl eeting impression befi tting the ‘fragments’ of the title. Birtwistle’s major new cycle reunites composer, writer David Harsent and lead role from his 2009 Aldeburgh-commissioned opera, The Corridor. | ||

|
 | ||
| Aldeburgh Church, Aldeburgh IP15 5DY, United Kingdom Friday 21-Jun-13 03:00pm Britten–Pears Young Artists II A concert that juxtaposes the sounds of a horn quartet with viola – Hindemith and Britten’s own instrument – is an alluring prospect, and the instruments’ very essence seems to be represented here. The viola’s burnished eloquence weeps in memorials by Hindemith and Bridge and spins fantastical tales in Schumann’s fairy stories; the horn’s heritage celebrated in smooth cantilenas and quicksilver caprice. Ghosts lurk here too – the horn virtuoso Dennis Brain and his quartet, and Britten, whose deft arrangements of other people’s music so often blends poetry and polish, working with the grain to reveal new beauty beneath the veneer. | ||

They show a confidence of expression and technique consistent with Haydn's preeminent position in European musical life. They followed hard upon the second of Haydn's highly successful visits to England and demonstrated that at the age of 65 or so, Haydn still had much to offer in the development of the quartet form. It was indeed the only instrumental form that continued to hold his interest as he drew close to the end of his composing career. Speaking of the richly varied Opus 76 set of quartets, Charles Burney, the English writer and musician, told Haydn that he had "never received more pleasure from instrumental music; they are full of invention, fire, good taste and new effects". Benjamin Britten's Three Divertimenti started life as an abortive string quartet entitled Alla Quartetto Serioso: Go play, boy, play: a quotation from Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. This early version dates from 1933, when the composer was nineteen, and, in turn, it grew out of an Alla Marcia which he had planned for an Emil and the Detectives suite. Five movements were projected for Go play, boy, play, each of which was to portray a schoolboy friend and to give impressions of boyish fun and games. The Alla Marcia was subtitled P.T. (Physical Training), and portrayed David Layton, a considerable athlete who went up to Cambridge. Subtitled Ragging, the third movement portrayed Francis Barton, a friend from prep. school days. The three completed movements were performed in 1933 and were well received, although the composer had his reservations and ceased work on the quartet. Nevertheless they were to receive another airing when a few years later Britten revised them and chose a new title – Three Divertimenti. (Notes by John Dalton courtesy of Making Music.) Schumann was the first great composer to combine piano and string quartet and he did it with such masterly skill, and with such inspiration, that he created in this work one of the eternal jewels in the entire repertoire of chamber music. The thematic material is full of youthful spontaneity and it is shaped and moulded with assured and mature craftsmanship. Only occasionally does the piano override the strings and the five instruments share a texture of extreme clarity and always with well-defined lines. Prize winners in the 2010 Royal Over-Seas League Competition and the 2009 5th Trondheim International String Quartet Competition in Norway, the Finzi Quartet has given recitals and made numerous festival appearances at major venues throughout the UK and Europe, including Wigmore Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Purcell Room, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Auditorio Sony in Madrid. The Quartet has also performed live on BBC Radio 3 and on Viennese Radio. As selected Young Artists the Quartet has benefited from the support of the Tillett Trust, Park Lane Group, the Tunnell Trust and the Kirckman Concerts Society. The Quartet held a Chamber Music Fellowship at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester between 2010 and 2012, and made its debut release with Resonus Classics in May 2012. Now based both in London and Paris, the members of the Finzi Quartet are alumni of the Royal College of Music in London and the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, and the Conservatoire National Superior de Musique et de Danse of both Paris and Lyon. British pianist Ashley Fripp has given solo, concerto and chamber music performances in many of the most prestigious venues throughout the UK, such as the Royal Festival, Queen Elizabeth, Birmingham Symphony, Barbican and Wigmore Halls. Recent international invitations have taken him throughout Poland, Germany, the Netherlands, China, Japan, Australia and the USA, to such halls as the Carnegie Hall (New York) and the Audimax Hall (Regensburg). He has won prizes at more than a dozen national and international competitions, including the coveted Gold Medal from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, Diploma of Outstanding Merit at the 8th Hamamatsu International Piano Competition, 1st Prize at the Brant International Piano Competition and the Award for Keyboard at the Royal Over-Seas League Competition. He has made appearances on BBC television and radio and has also performed in the Edinburgh, Brighton, Chipping Campden and City of London Festivals. Ashley Fripp studied at the Royal College of Music Junior Department and the Purcell School with Emily Jeffrey, and recently graduated with First Class Honours from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, where he is now undertaking postgraduate studies with Ronan O’Hora. Future plans include performances throughout the UK, France and Germany, and the recording of a Liszt album with Resonus Classics. His CD recording of both Chopin Piano Concertos was recently released on the Spektral Records label. Schumann, Robert (1810-1856), Piano Quintet | ||
