Ya-Fei Chuang plays Mendelssohn - WGBH Classical Performance

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 17:56:14 -0400

In these exquisite parlour pieces, Mendelssohn wanted to prove that music can say more by itself than it can with a text to go with it. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but music, according to this composer, "..fills the soul with a thousand things better than words."

The Hugo Wolf Quartet plays Haydn - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 19 Jun 2009 20:51:29 -0400

Franz Joseph Haydn wrote this delightful Opus 77 string quartet in 1799, the same year the young Beethoven came out with his amazing Opus 18 quartets. And then Haydn quietly stopped writing string quartets altogether. Was it because he felt he had met his equal? We'll never know, but this quartet is still enchanting.

For a musician in the 19th century, Mendelssohn had about the happiest life you could imagine. It's just that it was so darn short! Here's music from the period of his blissful marriage to Cecile Jeanrenaud.

Markus Schirmer and A Far Cry play Mozart - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 22 May 2009 18:33:10 -0400

When Mozart finished writing three piano concertos in 1782, he was very pleased with himself. In a December 1782 letter to his father he wrote, “These concertos are a happy medium between too heavy and too light. They are very brilliant, pleasing to the ear, and natural, without being insipid." We hear one of them, K. 414 in A major, played by the new conductor-less string ensemble, A Far Cry, performing in our studio with the Austrian pianist Markus Schirmer.

Yaron Kohlberg plays Schumann - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 17 Apr 2009 18:36:34 -0400

Robert Schumann was a critic and a composer, and in his words he was often critical of the "Philistines" in music - those who promoted conservative and ordinary talent. He gathered together a group of personalities called the "Davidsbundler", to fight the Philistines, and even wrote this set of intensely personal dances to celebrate this "Band of David". We hear it played by Yaron Kohlberg.

Andreas Klein plays Bach and Chopin - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 03 Apr 2009 18:40:36 -0400

J.S. Bach took a trip to Italy, and learned a great deal from the musicians he met. In this piece in the style of an Italian violin concerto, the pianist does double duty, playing the role of soloist and accompanist. Chopin, on the other hand, never made it to Italy, but captures the atmosphere of Venice beautifully in his Barcarolle.

Schumann read fairy tales to his own children, and was inspired to create musical fairy tales of his own. He didn't reveal the specific stories he was trying to evoke in this music, but the imagination can roam as the viola and clarinet penetrate the fairy world with their rich, dark colors.

Goran Krivokapic plays Sor and Giuliani - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 18:19:57 -0400

In the early part of the 19th century, opera was all the rage. All the best tunes came from the opera stage. So when Fernando Sor and Mauro Giuliani each set out to do variations on a theme for solo guitar, they chose their favorite opera tunes. Sor picked a tune from Mozart's "Magic Flute" and Giuliani chose melodies from several Rossini operas. We hear these two pieces played by a young virtuoso guitarist from Montenegro, Goran Krivokapic.

The Chiara String Quartet plays Haydn - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 13 Mar 2009 17:25:17 -0400

Haydn originally wrote his "Seven Last Words of Christ" as an oratorio for the cathedral at the Spanish port city of Cadiz. It was intended to be heard at the Good Friday Service, in between readings and discourses on each of the seven last statements of Christ on the Cross. We hear five movements in this abbreviated version.

Haldan Martinson and Sally Pinkas play Schumann - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 06 Mar 2009 17:42:41 -0500

Robert Schumann was not happy with his first Violin Sonata, composed in September of 1851, so he sat down and wrote another one, and finished it in October. But he must have had misgivings about this second one as well, because it wasn't published until two years later! This is some of Robert Schumann's most compelling music. We hear it played by Haldan Martinson, with Sally Pinkas at the piano.

David McCarroll and Dina Vainshtein play Schumann - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 27 Feb 2009 18:07:10 -0500

All his life, Robert Schumann had to manage two different personalities within himself. He even gave them names: Eusebius (his melancholy nature) and Florestan (his passionate side). In his literary work he would often refer to them and write from their different points of view. In his Violin Sonatas, you can hear both Eusebius and Florestan, holding forth! This is the first of a series - next week: Sonata No. 2.

The Auryn Quartet plays Haydn - WGBH Classical Performance

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 18:06:54 -0500

In 1781, when Haydn met Mozart, he called him "the greatest composer known to me either in person or reputation." Three years later he became good friends with the younger composer, and joined him in a "string quartet party" at a Viennese apartment. That was also the year (1784) Haydn wrote his Opus 50 Quartets, which - no surprise - bear a striking resemblance to the style of Mozart! Again we have the Auryn String Quartet.

Beethoven wrote this first String Quartet after he began to lose his hearing, so it was a time of anxiety and intense feeling for him.
