Stravinsky’s Gallic Jeu de Cartes is a ballet “in three deals”, reflecting the composer’s inclination to cards, tobacco and liquor. Aaron Copland's ballet score for Billy the Kid was prompted by impresario Lincoln Kirstein, who had pressed two books of old cowboy tunes into Copland's hands in hope that the composer write something with an American feel. The Olympian Violin Concerto of Brahms closes the concert.

Culture in Israel
by Asher Weill
(June 2000)
A review of any country's cultural history over the last fifty years would show enormous changes - undoubtedly a quantum leap - and certainly more changes than in any other fifty year period in history. How much more so in Israel, where that same period was marked by a series of cataclysmic events which had - and are still having - an effect on the very nature and cultural character of this young but old nation. Israel in 1948: a country of 640,000 Jews; just three years after the annihilation of six million Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe. A country on the eve of invasion by five neighboring Arab nations intent on wiping it out, or, in the words of one Arab leader, "driving the Jews into the sea." A country in the throes of absorbing the remnant of decimated European Jewry - despoiled of all their worldly goods and brutally severed from their cultural and linguistic roots, but intent on surviving and creating a new life in the one piece of land that was prepared to accept them. Each of the decades that followed was marked by yet more social and political convulsions. The fifties were the years of the

The life and thought of Joseph Swensen. oseph Swensen is one of the more interesting musicians on the scene today. He spent the first 15 years or so of his career as a concert violinist, and turned to conducting about a decade ago. He is conductor of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and principal guest conductor of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales. His guest-conducting duties are numerous. Mr. Swensen is an American, brought up in New York City. He attended the Juilliard School of Music from age seven. His father's parents were Norwegian immigrants, and his mother's parents were Japanese immigrants. Mr. Swensen lives in Copenhagen with his wife (a Dane and also a professional musician) and children.

The "Berliner Philharmoniker"
For the past 117 years the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra has played an outstanding part in the musical life of the city of Berlin. The orchestra was founded in 1882 by a group of some 50 ambitious musicians as a rebellion against the autocratic and parsimonious Benjamin Bilse , in whose kapelle they played; from this date onwards they held their fate in their own hands. Financial difficulties meant that the young orchestra was threatened with dissolution on numerous occasions. In 1887 the management was taken over by the concert agent Hermann Wolff , who brought a degree of financial security and above all enabled the orchestra to engage Hans von Bülow , the best, most modern and most uncompromising conductor of the day. In just five years Bülow laid the foundations for the orchestra's playing culture. The guest conductors who came to Berlin included Hermann Levi, Hans Richter, Felix Mottl, Felix von Weingartner, Ernst von Schuch, the composers Brahms, Grieg and the composer-conductors Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss and Hans Pfitzner.

STEVEN SPIELBERG JEWISH FILM ARCHIVE

THE COLLECTION
The Steven Spielberg Jewish Film Archive holds over 3,000 titles on film and video, constituting the largest collection of Jewish documentary film footage in the world. The vaults contain material shot in Israel before and after the establishment of the State in 1948, motion picture records of many Jewish communities in the Diaspora and two special collections relating to the Holocaust. EARLY ZIONISM AND THE STATE OF ISRAEL As the official film archive of the World Zionist Organization and its subsidiaries, including the Jewish Agency, Keren Kayemeth Leisrael (Jewish National Fund) and Keren Hayesod (Palestine Foundation Fund, later United Jewish Appeal), the Spielberg Archive is particularly strong in its coverage of Zionist activity before and after 1948. The earliest Zionist film was already produced in 1911 and a version of it is preserved at the Archive. From the early 1920s onward, film became an integral part of the activities of Zionist organizations, to the extent that they may be considered the pioneer producers of Israel's film industry.

Faking the Orgasm
By Mr. Pronto Allegro FIRST PUBLISHED IN THE TRIBUNE , OCT 1991. Simon Green is only 19 but he has power in his hands. He is gifted with the skills of centuries in recreating great violins - or to put it more accurately, great violin fakes. Simon is one of an increasing number of Australians to have been accepted at the Rubato School of Violin Making in Cremona, Italy. It is in fact only a few streets away from the famous Cremonese School founded in 1560, and just opposite `The Strad' take-way pizza restaurant. Cremona is the birthplace of the 17th Century Stradivari violin and this town consequently has become the name to be reckoned with when we think of the great contemporary fake violin makers. Ms Wanna Zambelini is director of Rubato and she is most impressed with the high standard of fake `Strads', `Amatis' and `Guarneris' being cranked out world wide in the last few years, and particularly the output from Australia.
Its impossible to tell now the difference between a Cremo fake and an Ozi fake, she exudes as we stand in front of the beautiful (and is it really so decaying or are those `fake' cracks in the side of his face?) badly crafted bust of Antonio Stradivarius himself. The reason why we still attract so many students here is because we have the edge in marketing skills. An authentic address is the other drawcard. Sitting on a plastic carving stool at

The Josef Marx Story
Nancy and Charles-David Lehrer
I think that every great artist has to have that ability to gamble, to take a chance, to stay out there on the edge and open new frontiers. Josef would try; sometimes he would miss; and sometimes he would crash and burn; other times he was just unforgettable. But he was always there again, to try once more, and I think that was part of his greatness in my estimation. Bert Turetzky Lux Feininger, artist and son of the famous Bauhaus artist Lyonel Feininger, wrote to us about the firm of McGinnis & Marx: "To tell of the early times of Josef Marx and his friends is to breathe again a richly hopeful air of my past... His publishing company of McGinnis & Marx changed its address repeatedly but never faltered in doing battle for the underdog. From Hell's Kitchen it had moved by the late forties to Waverly Place, which seemed hopeful. But it was not so for long: in 1949 we see Joe Marx in a lowly dwelling at 408 Second Ave., trying to pick up the pieces, not of his publishing enterprise but of his home life. The marriage with "McGinnis" had collapsed, although the firm somewhat mysteriously survived under the old masthead. Why would an oboist working hard hours in the pit of the Metropolitan Opera be destined to start a publishing company? To our surprise we began to accumulate a great deal of information which showed Josef to be most unusual among oboe players.

Brunswick Records: The Early Years
By R.J. Wakeman
Comments? email Tim Gracyk Click here to visit (or return to) Tim Gracyk's main page listing all articles. NOTE: The complete story of Brunswick as a maker of machines and records is told in back issues of Victrola and 78 Journal. The 13 back issues are available for $60 postpaid (U.S.A. only). Below is a simplified version of two articles. Brunswick enjoyed in 1916 a working relationship with the Pathe Phonograph Company. Brunswick did not manufacture records at the time. The two companies agreed that Brunswick would produce machines that played, among other types, Pathe discs. Moreover, Brunswick dealers would carry Pathe discs. In turn, Pathe (a maker of phonographs as well as records) bought many cabinets from Brunswick. Perhaps if the relationship had lasted, Brunswick would not have turned within a few years to record manufacturing. By 1919 Benjamin Bensingerwho, as president of Brunswick, was frustrated that music lovers turned to other companies for records to play on Brunswick machinesjudged the time ripe to introduce Brunswick discs in the U.S. market (some were already being sold in Canada). This was despite rising shellac costs in late 1919 and early 1920. The April 1920 issue of Talking Machine World reports that shellac shipments from India were small due to a tiny Kushmi crop in the fall of 1919. Early 1920 was a time of escalating prices in general. Effective February 15, retail prices on Brunswick machines were raised.

OK, we'll relent and tell you a bit about the music: If you got off on those live Allman Brothers double-albums from almost 30 years ago (also on Capricorn), the extended jams of this Athens, Ga.-based band will likely float your boat, too. But the package of 'Light Fuse Get Away' is another story. Instead of the standard jewel box, 'Fuse' comes in a stunning gatefold paperboard sleeve; the discs themselves come encased in inner sleeves printed with Kanji (Chinese characters), which pull out of the gatefold, a la vinyl albums. Both CDs sport a spiffy mid-'70s Capricorn center-label design, adapted to the album's red-and-yellow "firecracker" color scheme. There's also a beautiful eight-page insert that slides out of one of the gatefold's sleeves; on its back page, one band member is pictured thumbing through a dog-eared copy of the late John Kennedy Toole's 'A Confederacy of Dunces,' one of the coolest books ever written.

AN ORCHESTRA FOR ISRAEL The inaugural performance of the Palestine Symphony Orchestra took place in Tel Aviv on December 26, 1936, conducted by the legendary Arturo Toscanini. The orchestra was founded by Polish violinist Bronislaw Huberman, to provide a haven for Jewish musicians escaping the rise of Nazism. When the state of Israel was declared in 1948, the orchestra became the Israel Philharmonic. During the War of Independence, a young conductor named Leonard Bernstein led them in a desert concert for 5,000 soldiers. They then travelled in armoured cars to Jerusalem, where they gave performances to boost the morale of civilians and the military alike. Those concerts established the orchestra as an enduring symbol of Israeli nationalism, performing at times of national celebration and national crisis. In 1967, during the Six-Day War, Zubin Mehta left a Metropolitan Opera tour to conduct the orchestra in Israel. At the end of the same conflict, Leonard Bernstein conducted Mahler's "Resurrection" Symphony in Jerusalem. Mehta led the IPO again during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, including concerts for troops at the front lines, and again during the Gulf War. It's no surprise that Zubin Mehta occupies a special place in the hearts of Israelis. He's the only non-Israeli ever to be awarded the country's highest honour, the Israel Prize. Zubin Mehta first conducted the Israel Philharmonic in the 1960s. In 1968, he was appointed its Music Director, and in 1981 that appointment was extended for life. He holds other orchestral posts and travels extensively, but it's clear that Israel is his first love. It's also clear that the Israel Philharmonic is more than just one of the world's great orchestras. First and foremost.... it's an orchestra for Israel.

http://www.jasperwood.net/reviews/americanrecord/
American Record Guide American Record Guide ECKHARDT-GRAMATTE: Caprices; KULESHA: Caprices. Author/s: Elaine Fine
Issue: Nov, 2000 Jasper Wood, vAnalekta 3149 (Albany) 57 min Russian-born Sophie-Carmen Eckhardt-Gramatte (1899-1974) was a child prodigy who studied violin with Bronislaw Huberman. While she was living in Spain in the 1920s, she worked with Pablo Casals. Her ten caprices are charming and unusual descriptive character pieces written in stolen moments in 1924 and 1934. After moving to Vienna in 1939, she went on to Winnipeg in 1953 where she spent the rest of her life. Each of her ten Caprices is a musical world unto itself. Her 'Danse Marocaine', for example, has double-stops that include both harmonics and natural tones. She has musical pictures of a bird realizing that it is trapped in a cage, a piece about sitting with a sick friend, a piece about a departing train, and an Elegie for her first husband. These caprices are the musical equivalent of a photograph collection, each carefully composed to include all the possible dramatic contradictions in a given situation. In contrast to the Eckhardt-Gramatte caprices, the three by Toronto-born Gary Kulesha (b. 1954) are expressive in a more concise and aggressive way. The first dance sounds connected to Eastern European traditions, the second contains many difficult-to-play seconds, and the third is a rhythmic ostinato that includes a section of perfectly appropriate quarter-tones.

Masques et Bergamasques
, Gabriel Urbain Fauré (Born 12 May 1845 at Pamiers; Died 4 November 1924 at Paris)
There is no better description of Fauré's music than that of Aaron Copland when he wrote:
"It is not difficult to see why Fauré's example was inspiring to a generation of composers who were quickly tiring of impressionism. They easily overlooked the fact that Fauré had his roots in the romantic movement, because his was a pre-Wagnerian brand of romanticism - delicate, reserved, and aristocratic. Moreover, no matter what its derivation may have been, it possessed all the earmarks of the French temperament; harmonic sensitivity, impeccable taste, classic restraint, and a love of clear lines and well-made proportions."
Fauré was an influential composer as well as a distinguished teacher. He studied under Niedermeyer, Dietsch, and Saint-Saëns. His instrument was the organ, and his first position as a musician was as organist at St. Sauveur, Rennes. He won honors as the Inspecteur des Beaux-Arts (succeeding Guiraud in 1892) and became Director of the Conservatoire in 1905. He was a great teacher, which can be measured by his best-known students: Louis Aubert, Nadia Boulanger, Roger Ducasse, Georges Enesco, Grovlez, Laparra, Schmitt, and Maurice Ravel.
Tonight's little touch piece in four movements was written when the composer was 76 years old. The movements were excerpted from a theater piece to be used as entertainment for the Opéra-Comique. The clean formal structures and clarity of the melodic lines are typical of the composer in his neoclassical treatment of 18th Century forms. It is lightly scored for pairs of winds, horns, and trumpets, timpani, harp and string choir. This is the first performance of this work at these concerts.
