Schubert Donat Beethoven Ferdinand Troyer Troyer Ying Quartet 2017
Ying Quartet Joseph Anderer, horn William Short, bassoon Alexander Bedenko, clarinet Brendan Kane, double bass Illustrated talk by Misha Donat Schubert — Octet No piece by Schubert pays clearer homage to his greatest contemporary, Beethoven, than his Octet, one of his most irresistibly exuberant chamber works. It was commissioned by Count Ferdinand Troyer, amateur clarinetist and chief steward to Beethoven’s pupil and patron Archduke Rudolph of Austria. Troyer wanted a piece modeled on Beethoven’s Septet, Op. 20, and Schubert duly scored his music for an almost identical ensemble. He also mirrored Beethoven’s six-movement scheme, even prefacing each of the outer movements with a slow introduction. And as in the Beethoven, the work’s centerpiece is a set of variations. This being Schubert, the variation theme comes from one of his vocal compositions: a duet in a Singspiel he had composed at the age of eighteen.

Ying Quartet Sydney Opera House 2006
The CrossFit Journal / ((http•••)) At 5 years old, Janet Ying started taking violin lessons. It wasn't particularly remarkable. "It was one thing among many that I did growing up—going to school, taking swimming lessons, things like that," she explains. Today, her Ying Quartet, which includes two of her brothers, is in its second decade of performing. The ensemble, which in 2006 won a Grammy Award for Best Classical Crossover Album, is in residence at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, N.Y. The quartet has performed at the White House, the Sydney Opera House and even a small farming town in Iowa, says Ying, who trains at CrossFit Rochester. CrossFit, she adds, was just about getting in shape—at first. "I think I discovered that there's more to it than simply fitness." Music, too, is multi-dimensional for Ying. "Classical music is about trying to express yourself," she continues. "So things are like despair or frustration—those things are in classic music, as well as sort of ecstatic and joyful and overcoming things." Video by Jordan Gravatt.
