Tangos for Piano from Latin America and Europe (BVHAAST 0702)
Download here 'A fuego lento' by Horacio Salgan (MP3, 504 KB) This CD places the tangos of South America, where the dance originated, next to and against tangos written by European composers in the early twentieth century, when the tango first crossed the ocean. In addition, three recent tangos written by Dutch composers are included, two of which were composed especially for Marcel Worms. From the very beginning, the piano played an important role in the tango orchestra. Many of the genre's greatest figures were both bandleader and pianist. 1. Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) - Tango (1940)
2. Horacio Salgan (1916) - A fuego lento (1953)

GYULA CSAPO By: Montse Andreu.
T
T
I n 1979 Csapo is given a post as professor of music at the Bartok Conservatory, where he is in charge of ear training, orchestration, musical theory and chamber music, and he stays there until 1983. Then he travels to the United States, while continuing as a lecturer at the Liszt Academy. Three years before he had paid a short visit to this country, where he became interested in the American musical panorama, since the NMS had been in close professional contact with the American avantgarde, having premiered several works by John Cage, Morton Feldman, Christian Wolff, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, La Monte Young, Frederick Rzewski, Charlemagne Palestine and others, in spite of the dislike that the Hungarian government had for them, hardly "tolerating" them, given the Communist Party policies with regard to American cultural interference. The NMS members were not prosecuted as political instigators, however, thanks to the fact that the works they performed had no explicit texts whatsoever.

Web Search On the Aisle [INDEX] Carnegie Hall: Budapest Festival Orchestra and Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra By Philip Anson / January 16, 2003 On the Aisle The Budapest Festival Orchestra (photo left) was founded by Hungarian conductor Ivan Fischer and pianist Zoltan Kocsis in 1983 but did not start playing together permanently until 1992. Created as an alternative to what was then perceived as mediocre “official” socialist-era Hungarian orchestras such as the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra, the Budapest Festival Orchestra hired musicians on merit and asked them to work for little or nothing while the band established itself and sought private funding. The group toured to raise its profile and landed a contract with Philips Classics. Its albums of music by Liszt, Dvorak, and Bartok got good reviews. Yet the road to success was rocky. Fischer faced unexpected competition from his former partner Kocsis who in 1997 became the artistic director of the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra. Kocsis more or less undercut Fischer by implementing his reforms at the National and landing several millions of dollars in government funding. Meanwhile, Fischer was left to beg for corporate handouts to support his fledgling “capitalist” enterprise. Today the Budapest Festival Orchestra is actively trying to brand itself and to find a niche in the competitive world of major symphony orchestras.Its job is not made any easier by the simultaneous U.S. touring of its erstwhile competitor the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra.

Audio Midi LSM About LSM LSM News Distribution Advertising ... Web Search On the Aisle INDEX Russian National Orchestra Mikhail Pletnev, Conductor Avery Fisher Hall New York, N. Y. Great Performers at Lincoln Center Series Jan. 21, 2000. New York - The fall of Soviet Bloc communism and the subsequent drying up of government subsidies stimulated the creation of several new orchestras along the lines of privately sponsored western institutions. Hungary's Budapest Festival Orchestra was founded in 1983 by conductor Ivan Fischer and pianist Zoltan Kocsis. The Moscow-based Russian National Orchestra was created in the former Soviet Union in September 1990 by pianist Mikhail Pletnev, bringing together what promotional literature describes as "the finest musicians in the country" and "many players from the principal ranks of the major Soviet orchestras, most of them soloists in their own right." The need to earn hard currency and to promote their thirteen Deutsche Gramophon recordings means that the RNO has to tour constantly. Their latest American tour covered Ann Arbor, Worcester, Troy, Long Island, and Manhattan between Jan. 19 and Jan. 24. Performing six concerts in as many days is no way to get the best out of weary musicians, as the RNO's lacklustre Jan. 21 concert at Lincoln Centre's Avery Fisher Hall demonstrated.

Opera Orgy in Eastern Europe Review by Ray Chowkwanyun
Click here to e-mail reviewer
I n October of 2002, I visited the Czech Republic and Hungary in search of cheap opera, where the sets are cheesy, but the singing is not. Prices were indeed cheap, no more than $25 for the best seat in the house. National Theatre Praha (Prague): Sleeping Beauty
By a huge margin, the National Theatre in Praha (Prague) has the best acoustics of the five venues I sampled. I never thought I'd see these words in cold print but forget Vienna, forget Luzern, and especially forget the Met. This is it. I would be happy to sit here for hours' just listening to the orchestra tuning up, so gorgeous is the sound. The first thing I heard as I entered was the harps tuning up. Each note was a liquid drop of golden sound. There is such a bloom to the acoustic in this auditorium. It is as if each note were floating on its own acoustic pillow. This theatre treasures and coddles every note with perfect clarity. There is no muddiness at all. All the different threads in the music can be heard separately and yet in such full richness of tone.
When the bassoon started practicing it sounded as if he were playing an instrument the size of a young sequoia. What a huge tone… so loud and so woody. The only drawback of seeing a ballet is that I was unable to judge how singers would have projected from the stage. Oh well, guess I'll just have to come back and check it out. It's a tough assignment but someone's got to do it.

Great Book of Interviews Sunday, February 4, 2001 These titles are available through Dover Publications which is a significant source of important material for musical and cultural enrichment. This latest book is no exception. It's full of great quotable material. Great Contemporary Pianists Speak For Themselves Elyse Mach This book would ordinarily follow a reading of Great Pianists on Piano Playing by James Francis Cooke, also available from Dover, which I reviewed here last year. For one thing this is a far more contemporary book than Cooke's and the pianists interviewed are a mix of some of the older greats with some of the newer talents. Conspicuously missing but far from forgotten is Arthur Rubinstein. He is remembered largely through his protege, Janina Fialkowska. The portraits of some of the pianists one will actually meet inside are from top left to bottom right, Vladimir Horowitz, Claudio Arrau, Andre Watts, Alicia de Larrocha, Glenn Gould, Emil Gilells, Rosalyn Tureck and Jorge Bolet. Each has quite different stories to tell of how they came to be concert pianists. In this book, one will hear one of the few instances where a pianist goes into some depth concerning pianos themselves; It is true that you transport your own piano for the concerts you play?
