Ravinia sitting pretty this summer with lively lineup
February 20, 2003 BY WYNNE DELACOMA Classical Music Critic
The last two summers have been exceptionally monsoon-free. But beyond placating the rain gods, the Ravinia Festival must have been doing something right with its musical lineup. While most arts and entertainment venues are worrying about declining attendance and escalating debt, Ravinia is coming off two seasons of setting attendance records beyond the 600,000 mark. Its budgets are relatively balanced, despite pressure on longtime corporate supporters including United Airlines. Building on this strong foundation, the festival has announced plans for a lively classical music lineup for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and guest artists and ensemble this summer. The classical highlights of the season running June 6-Sept. 8 are many, from soprano Jane Eaglen's Chicago area recital debut Aug. 19 and Alicia de Larrocha's farewell recital Aug. 20 to orchestral blockbusters from Beethoven to John Adams throughout the season. This will be Christoph Eschenbach's final season as music director. After becoming Ravinia's musical chief in 1995, he takes the helm of the Philadelphia Orchestra in September, though he will return to Ravinia as a guest conductor in coming seasons. This summer he will conduct eight of the CSO's 24 concerts July 25-27 and Aug. 3-5 and 9-10. Throughout the season the focus will be on three B's dear to Eschenbach's heart: Beethoven, Berlioz and Leonard Bernstein.

Chinese Piano Prodigy Makes Collaboration Debut with Philadelphia Orchestra
Piano Prodigy Makes Collaboration Debut with Philadelphia Orchestra Chinese piano prodigy Lang Lang, made his collaboration debut with one of the world's leading orchestras, the Philadelphia Orchestra, on its centennial celebration tour in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Friday evening.
The 18-year-old Chinese pianist was the soloist for Mendelssohn 's Piano Concerto No.1 under the direction of Munich-born master conductor Wolfgang Sawalisch.
Sawalisch said before the performance at a press conference, " Mendelssohn's work is very demanding for the soloist. But we're sure that this promising young man will be able to handle it well. " Lang Lang expressed excitement about performing with the Philadelphia Orchestra and said he would go all out for tonight's performance. The engrossed young pianist's passion and skill carried away the audience of some 10,000, who applauded ardently for an encore. Lang Lang played two extra performances including one adapted from a Chinese folk song and again received massive ovations.

In Search of the Unforgettable Sound By France Graage Sometime last April, my friend Anadel Rich and I drove from Washington to Baltimore to hear pianist Lang Lang play the Grieg concerto under Yuri Temirkanov's direction. We had the best seats in Meyerhoff Hall, balcony on the left, almost, but not quite above the stage. Walking on stage, the conductor and the young pianist were an image of friendship and complicity. Lang Lang sat down and immediately dove into the large chords of the opening phrase. We sank back into our chairs
and from then on we were carried away. Later, Anadel mentioned that, when Lang Lang began those big opening chords, she experienced the same thrill that she has often felt at the movies when the lights go down and the MGM lion roars. Anadel and I had been asked by the Washington Performing Arts Society to choose the artists for the Patrick Hayes and Evelyn Swarthout Piano Series at the Terrace Theatre in Washington, D.C., and Lang Lang is one of our choices for the coming season. Our mission is to raise the profile of the series, which means finding the best young, or not so young, but still relatively unknown pianists available, keeping in mind certain budgetary limits, of course. This task is something of a dream assignment for me as I have, for a long time, tried to help artists develop their careers. Part of the scope of the task is to work within a new environment of cooperative programming among regional presenters which is being developed by the WPAS and other

Django Reinhardt
, Les Paul and Jimi Hendrix, are household names, familiar beyond the confines of their respective spheres.
Yet it is highly unlikely that the instrument would have evolved in the way it did without two major factors, both of which occurred in the mid 1920s: the introduction of the electrical recording process and the arrival in New York of the Philadelphia born guitarist, Eddie Lang . His trail blazing achievements were made possible by this technological breakthrough. Until that time the banjo was the emblem of popular music, principally because out of all musical instruments, its percussive twang was best equipped to cut through the murkiness of the acoustic horn recording process. Indeed, the most popular early recordings were banjo solos, usually transcribed from piano rags, and often interpreted by such virtuosi as Fred Van Eps and Harry Reser
Before the introduction of microphone recording, the guitar was seldom heard outside the concert hall, or in less formal folk circles, such as flamenco or gipsy. As early as 1922, just prior to the new recording process, when the singer Nick Lucas, The Singing Troubadour, began his studio career (which lasted over four decades) he accompanied himself on guitar, although his style was rooted in the ragtime tradition of the banjoists. Between them, the new technology and Eddie Lang created an entirely fresh role for the guitar, and in the process helped change the sound of popular music.

Concert series brings music of the world to campus
From the sublime artistry of 20-year-old violinist Hilary Hahn to the visceral power of Japanese percussion ensemble Kodo to the imaginative melding of new music with a 1928 silent film about Joan of Arc, the 97th season of the Cornell Concert Series brings a world of musical excitement to Ithaca. The Cornell Concert Series brings Japanese percussion ensemble Kodo to Bailey Hall March 13. Ryuichi Okano The primary goal of the CCS is to bring to campus world-class musicians who push the envelope in terms of virtuosity, expressivity, new repertoire and new artistic combinations. The second appearance by the women's vocal quartet Anonymous 4 is an example. The sensuous purity of the women's singing of medieval music inspired composer Richard Einhorn to create his oratorio "Voices of Light" with their voices in mind. In this beautiful new oratorio, which will be performed simultaneously with a screening of the 1928 silent film "The Passion of Joan of Arc," Anonymous 4 sing, together, the voice of Joan. Described as "lush," "brilliantly effective" and "moving" by The New York Times Washington Post and Chicago Sun-Times , the oratorio also calls for a large chorus (the Cornell Glee Club and Chorus) and orchestra (the Cayuga Chamber Orchestra). Scott Tucker, director of choral activities at Cornell, will conduct the Feb. 4 performance.

Previous Entry: 01/16/03 ... Next Entry: 01/17/03 Posted at 11:49 PM PST: "Lang Lang" Instead of heading to bed after returning home yesterday, I met up with Vienna Oliver , Mel, Emile , and Zhenya in the first row of the lower orchestra section of Davies Symphony Hall to hear Lang Lang perform Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2. I actually planned my trip around coming back into town to see him perform. He was absolutely stunning! At times, he literally vibrated with an energy that I felt might make him burst; it was thoroughly infectious, and none of us cared that we were sitting under the piano, unable to really hear a "proper" balanced sound from any of the instruments (it helped that all of us know the piece fairly well). I had the same reaction I had when seeing him play last year: he is the best pianist I have ever seen perform. I write that because I enjoy his performances more than I do other ones. The two performances of his I've seen stand out in every way I can imagine. Oh!

CD Review: Lang Lang, Yuri Temirkanov and the St. Petersburg Philharmonic: Rachmaninoff: Piano Concerto No 3.; Scriabin: Etudes (Telarc) Buy it here Since his career-making performance at the Ravinia Festival in 1999, Chinese pianist Lang Lang has become a major new voice in the classical world. On this CD, he takes on one of the warhorses of the repertoire, Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3 (in a performance recorded live at the London Proms in 2001) and makes it his own.
Abetted by an elegant and sympathetic reading by Temirkanov and the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, Lang Lang negotiates the vast range of the work with a dazzling technical and expressive elan. From the simple folk-tinged opening theme to the breathless build-up of the finale, the pianist displays an astonishing grasp of the concerto's broad melodic visions and the myriad intricacies of its countless shifts in mood and emotion.
Similarly, on a selection of Scriabin Etudes (recorded on a separate occasion), Lang Lang plays with a virtuosity and elasticity that encompass the composer's various compositional phases. The Etude Op. 2 No. 1

Lang Lang and Ling: A powerful performance
Concert review by Mary Ellyn Hutton
Post contributor
Whether Chinese-born pianist Lang Lang will "change the world" as Teen People predicted in its April 2002 issue along with 19 other "Top Teens" is an open question. What is clear right now is his capacity to rouse audiences, as he did at Thursday night's Cincinnati Symphony concert at Music Hall. With the final pounding chords of Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto, Lang Lang had them standing and cheering. As well they might. It was a powerful performance marked by considerable artistry. Conducting was former Cleveland Orchestra resident conductor Jahja Ling.
