NEWS ARCHIVE Contact: Jennifer Gallagher (860) 987-6082; E-Mail: jennifer_gallagher@bushnell.org HARTFORD, Conn., February 12, 2001 - The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, under the direction of Principal Conductor Riccardo Chailly, will perform a primarily Brahms program when they appear at The Bushnell as part of Fleet Showcase on Tuesday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m. Cellist Mischa Maisky and violinist Vadim Repin will be the evening's featured soloists during Brahms' Double Concerto for Violin and Cello in A minor. The program will also feature Brahms' Symphony No. 1 in C minor and Anton Webern's Passacaglia, Op. 1. Tickets are available at The Bushnell Box Office by calling (860) 987-5900 or online at www.bushnell.org. On November 3, 1888, the Concertgebouw Orchestra gave its very first performance at a time when there was almost no tradition of symphony performances in the Netherlands. In its first decades, under the leadership of its first conductors Willem Kes and Willem Mengelberg, the Orchestra developed into a trend-setting European ensemble. The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, whose "Royal" predicate was awarded by the Queen for the Orchestra's centenary celebration in 1988, is now considered to be among that exclusive and highly restricted group of the world's most pre-eminent symphonic ensembles. The 115 top musicians that currently make up the Orchestra are not just outstanding virtuosos on their instruments, but together they maintain the specific performance culture that gives the Orchestra its unique sound. With its velvet strings, the golden sound of the brass and the typically Dutch timbre of the winds, the Orchestra has created for itself a special place among the very best internationally renowned orchestras. The Orchestra has built up a reputation through its interpretations of the late Romantic repertoire, including music by Brahms, Mahler, Bruckner and Richard Strauss.

Eisler continues, "what is most captivating about his playing is his innate feeling for the music, his unerring sense of style, and his irresistible charm."

Thanks and enjoy! The name Vadim is reasonably common in the ex-Soviet republics, and most Vadims tend to be from there. It is pronounced as vuh-DEEM . Vadim is a unique name, not a truncation of Vladimir or expansion of Dima, though it changes to localized forms such as Vadimas in Lithuanian and Wadim in Romania. The history of where the name Vadim originates, and what exactly it means is fuzzy. Several sources that I have heard of so far have come up with the following: Vadim has a root in Slavic vedet or vadit or wiedziec , which means "to know" - as the old magicians in pagan Slavic beliefs were called veduny - "the knowing ones". "Vedet" still exists in Czech and Polish today (

Extractions: Eduard Wulfson, artistic director of the international Chateau de Champs Masterclasses for violinists held each summer outside of Paris, has become the Society's first European Director of European Operations. The esteemed violinist and professor, well-known for his coaching of international soloists, last year orchestrated the purchase of the only existent Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù cello, 1731, "Messeas." Shortly thereafter, Wulfson, on behalf of The Stradivari Society, loaned this exceptional instrument to the acclaimed cellist David Geringas. "I am very proud to be the Society's first European patron and first European director of operations," said Wulfson. Acquisition of the del Gesù evolved from Wulfson's great mutual admiration and friendship with Geoffrey Fushi, he explained. "I admire his great achievements with his partner, Robert Bein, as world-leading violin experts and dealers. When Geoffrey mentioned the existence of the unique and superb only existent cello by del Gesù," related Wulfson. "I was so surprised about such a sensational discovery that I asked to see the cello. I immediately fell in love with the wonderful sound and the gorgeous, divine projection of this instrument, as did David," remarked Wulfson, who quickly developed the financial structure to acquire the rare cello.

Extractions: By John Lutterman It is only recently that Western scholars have begun to reevaluate Russian musical culture. It is a culture in which music matters a great deal. Government support of music may have been motivated by thoughts of its propaganda value, but such propaganda could only function in a culture that valued music highly to begin with. While political considerations may at times have placed severe restrictions on artistic freedom, the fact that government officials felt that it was necessary to control the arts is evidence of a culture in which the power of the arts has played a much more important role than in the west. Repin and Berezovsky are among the last generation of the prodigious and prolific Soviet-era musicians, heirs to the tradition of such imposing performers as Oistrackh, Rostropovich and Richter. While they must have had to struggle with a meddling political and bureaucratic regime, they clearly have benefited from coming of age in a culture that nurtures and values musicians so highly. Perhaps this explains some of the mesmerizing power of Sundays performance. They evince a firm belief in the power of the arts, in the importance of their roles.

Extractions: The International Festival of Music Lucerne was created in 1938, the year Hitler marched into Austria. Due to the political circumstances, Switzerland became, for a few years, a safe-haven for a lot of artists who could or would not perform anymore in Germany or Austria. The Concert de Gala of the year 1938 was directed by Arturo Toscanini. He performed Wagner's Siegfried-Idyl which the composer had written in his house in Lucerne. In its more than 60 years of existence, the Internationale Musikfestwochen Luzern , as the festival is called in German has become one of the leading events of classical music in the world. For its year 2000 edition, the organizers have published substantial programs, including a book of 460 pages with essays on the festival's guiding theme, metamorphosis, and on other subjects such as the anniversary of Johann Sebastian Bach and the composer's in residence, György Kurtág and Toshio Hosokawa, to whom another, 301-page book, is dedicated. The salle blanche , conceived for 1840 people by the acoustics specialist Russell Johnson and the French architect Jean Nouvel, who first wanted it blue and red, but changed his original plans after criticism by conductors against too much color, was inaugurated in August 1998. The acoustic are excellent thanks to the traditional shoe box hall-form with its its 1:1 relation of height to width. The insulation of the hall from outside noise is perfect. Not only for these reasons, the festival can live up to its ambitions and the prestige of its famous performing guests. By the way, the audience was excellent too. No cell phone ringing! What a pleasant contrast to Zurich's Tonhalle. The following article renders the impressions of three symphony concerts of this year's edition.

That which strikes one most, and which constitutes the group's distinguishing characteristic, is however the capacity to use the total quality component, not in a hedonistic sense but, on the contrary, as a privileged instrument in the structural definition of the composition ...".
