One of the oldest-established festivals in the UK, the Norfolk & Norwich comes round in the merry month of May.
[…] Messiaen, Norwich Cathedral will also resound to a different tune and music style with an emotive brand of folk-pop (Saturday, 18th May) featuring Kenny Anderson (aka King Creosote) whose latest album ‘I DES’ explores a kaleidoscopic musical terrain with vibraphones, accordions, e-bows and samplers. A record breaker, for sure, the King has released over 100 records since his début in the 1990s while his songs have been covered and performed by such luminous artists as Patti Smith and Simple Minds. Local (but international) Norwich-born musician, Laura Cannell, also returns to the festival to present the ‘live’ version of her seventh solo album, Antiphony of the Trees, in a concert focusing solely on the recorder taking inspiration from the sound of birdsong which cuts through the crisp air of the Fen valley where she lives. Armed with bass, tenor, alto and double recorders, she’ll transcribe birdsong into a minimalist solo chamber-music recital. Fellow […]

[…] these peripatetic Germans. The second season at New York began and ended with nothing eventful to record. At the close of the summer, the season of 1850-51 was again passed in Baltimore, where a second series of thirty concerts had been subscribed for. At the close of these concerts, which were fully as successful as those of the previous winter, the orchestra went on a four weeks’ trip to the Southern States with Parodi, Amalia Patti, and Strakosch. Following this engagement was one with Jenny Lind, for whom they played in nearly thirty concerts, and when these were concluded, the repaired to Newport for the third summer. At the close of the subscription concerts in Baltimore, Mr. Lenschow, the original director of the orchestra, had tended his resignation, and Mr. Wilhelm Schultze, the leader of the violins, was chosen conductor ad interim. This arrangement continued with excellent results until the […]

Dichterliebe Reimagined: Koen van Stade & Neal Peres Da Costa bring creative freedom & musical rhetoric to bear on Schumann's song cycle
[…] fact, the bass Robert Blass (1867-1930) studied with Stockhausen and recorded two songs, 'Im wunderschönen Monat Mai' and 'Ich grolle nicht' in 1903, and mezzo-soprano Therese Behr-Schnabel (1876-1959), also a Stockhausen pupil, recorded 'Ich grolle nicht' in 1904.Whilst orchestras and instrumentalists have mined early recordings for information about performance practice in late 19th and early 20th-century music, these early vocal recordings have not had such currency. Few, if any, singers have attempted to emulate say Adelina Patti's performing style in the arias from Don Giovanni that she recorded. Why not?Early recordings plus vocal treatises such as those of Manuel García’s (1805–1906) are important sources of information about late 19th century styles of performance. This is only something that has relatively recently been taken on board by Historically Informed Performance. For most of the late 20th century and later, HIP involved instrumentalists performing in period style with singers who might go some way to […]
