Lisbon Film Orchestra A Lisbon Filme Orchestra volta este ano para um mega concerto. Desta vez além da banda sonora dos filmes, junta as séries de televisão, "

[melworld-blog]

COMIC-CON PT 2017 (3º DIA)

O 3º dia começou cedo, com a visualização da ante-estreia de "Knightfall"´. Gosto de séries históricas, e acho que esta série tem potencial. Depois, a Warner Bros. deu-nos a conhecer as estreias de 2018, como por exemplo: "The Disaster Artist", "Aquaman", "Ready Player One"... Um dos pontos altos do dia foi, sem dúvida, ter a oportunidade de assistir ao Hollywood in Concert. A Lisbon Film Orchestra interpretou algumas da melhores músicas do cinema, que pertecem a filmes como: "Star Wars", "Spider Man", "Harry Potter", "Gladiator"... Realmente, ter a oportunidade ver ouvir estas músicas interpretadas ao vivo é uma experiência única. Por falar em pontos altos do dia, outro foi a conferência do actor Dominic Purcell, conhecido pelos seus papéis nas séries "Prison Break" e "Legends of Tomorrow". Deu a conhecer que entrou no mundo do entretenimento, de forma quase acidental. Na Austrália, ele desenhava jardins e um dia foi buscar a namorada a um casting. Alguém achou que ele seria o ideal para um anúncio de cigarros, e convenceram-no a fazer a audição, que foi bem sucedida. Em relação a "Legends of Tomorrow", foram abordados vários pontos. Quando questionado, referiu que não imagina que alguma vez voltará a ser o vilão Cronos, pois seria um retrocesso para a sua personagem. Também se falou de John Constantine, que irá aparecer brevemente na série. Dominic referiu que a interação entre os dois é divertida. Também mencionou que existiu uma mudança de ambiente depois da 1ªtemporada, pois esta era levada demasiado a sério. Agora, a série é mais divertida. Notou-se que fala com apreço da série "The Flash", pois foi onde começou, e também de Grant Gustin. Revelando que não compreende porque Gustin não foi o Flash no filme "Justice League". E, admitiu que não viu o filme, pois, segundo mesmo, não é a praia dele. Também se falou dos crossovers, que Dominic diz que gosta, apesar de serem complexos em termos de filmagem. E, admitiu que existe a possibilidade de termos 3 crossovers, no próximo ano. Em relação a "Prison Break", apesar de questionado sobre uma 6ª temporada, Dominic só disse que está em desenvolvimento. E, que, também é da opinião que a série deveria ter acabado na 2ª temporada, porque era excelente na altura. Também falou de Wentworth Miller, com quem tem uma boa relação de amizade. Por último, de referir que Stan Lee, segundo Dominic, o queria para interpretar The Punisher (Frank Castle). Apenas disse que foi há alguns anos, mas não disse se seria para filme ou série.

LO SCORSO ANNO È ANDATA COSÌ…

Secondo il credo di François Truffaut, “Tre film al giorno, tre libri alla settimana, dei dischi di grande musica faranno la mia felicità fino alla fine dei miei giorni”, e come dargli torto? Tenendo conto che però i ritmi di Truffaut sono certamente inarrivabili, ne condivido di certo la filosofia. Quest’anno è andata così, però ho la pessima abitudine di non annotare i dischi che ascolto, ecco un buon proposito per il 2023.

As a composer, João Paes' work is particularly noteworthy as the author of original music for films by Manoel de Oliveira such as Benilde or the Virgin Mother (1974), Amor de Perdição (1976-1978), Francisca (1980), Le Soulier by Satin (1984-1985), O Meu Caso (1986) and Os Canibais (1987), the opera he dedicated to the director, which he transposed to film and for which he received the prize for best soundtrack at the International Festival of Sitges, in Spain. The relationship with Manoel de Oliveira, which the Dictionary of Portuguese Cinema defines as “a singular fidelity and symbiosis”, also placed João Paes as the filmmaker's musical consultant, in films such as O Passado e o Presente (1971). In the area of ​​cinema, João Paes was also a critic, during the 1960s, for the magazine O Tempo eo Modo and for Jornal de Letras e Artes. Later, in the 1990s, he wrote for the journal; PÚBLICO, where he was one of the main columnists as a music critic and, in particular, of opera. Cultural Counselor of the Embassy of Portugal in Washington, from 1982, during that decade he was also founder of the Régie-Sinfonia Orchestra, director of music programming at Lisbon 94 - European Capital of Culture, member of the National Council of Culture, from 1994 to 1998 , and president or member of the jury of international competitions in Singing, Composition and Conducting Orchestra, in competitions held in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Switzerland. https://www.instagram.com/p/CWWQmwVITb0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hidden Figures in Classical Music

by Mahaliah Edwards

The 2016 film Hidden Figures was a huge success, both at the box office and in making us aware of the African American women who were instrumental in NASA’s 1962 mission to put John Glenn into orbit. We’ve all heard of Scott Joplin but there were and are several classical composers of colour who have seemingly been forgotten through the ages. Here are just a few of the many hidden figures in classical music past and present. Have you heard of these musicians, virtuosi, and composers before?

The 18th century saw many composers of African descent flourish, despite being born mostly into slavery or lowly conditions.

Ignatius Sancho (1729-1780), was not only a composer but was also an actor and gained significant fame as a writer.

Joseph Bologne, Le Chevalier de Saint-Georges (1745-1799). The son of a wealthy planter and his slave, Joseph Bologne was a conductor, composer and virtuoso violinist. He was a dedicatee of several works by prominent composers such as Carl Stamitz and Gossec. As a composer, he had a varied volume of works from the popular opera comiques to many vocal works, from 14 violin concerti to symphonies and chamber works.

Joseph Antonio Emidy (1775-1835). Born in West Africa and sold into slavery as a child, Emidy began playing the violin under the support of his master. Not long after learning the violin, he won a position in the second violin section of the Lisbon Opera orchestra. Unfortunately, after his fortunes in Lisbon, during the Napoleonic wars he spent some years on ship as a fiddler. Emidy eventually settled in Cornwall, England, becoming a music teacher and leader of the Truro Philharmonic Orchestra.

George Bridgetower (1778-1860). The son of a servant of the Hungarian Prince Esterházy, George Bridgetower was something of a child prodigy and by the age of 10 had moved to London to perform on the stages there. Did you know that Beethoven had originally dedicated his violin sonata No. 9 to Bridgetower? The two fell out over a lady and Beethoven rededicated the sonata to Kreutzer, which is why we all know it as the Kreutzer Sonata.

Fast forward to the late 19th/early 20th century and we have Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875-1912) who was hailed as the “African Mahler”. He was a composer and conductor who studied with Charles Villiers Stanford at the Royal College of Music in London. He composed a stunning Violin Concerto in G minor and you can find Tasmin Little’s recording of it online. He also compiled 24 Negro Melodies in 1905, including Deep River, performed here by Jascha Heifetz. His daughter Avril Coleridge-Taylor followed in his footsteps and became a composer herself.

For more modern composers we have the likes of Julius Eastman (1940-1990) who was a composer, pianist and vocalist from New York. He graduated from the Curtis Institute and had a career making music particularly in the minimalist style. As a vocalist he became noted for his recording of Nonesuch by Peter Maxwell Davies.

Segun Akinola is a composer who graduated with first-class honours from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. I first came across his music when watching a BBC Docu-series “Black and British: A Forgotten History.” I discovered that he composed the apposite score for the documentary and have been following him since. Segun is a BAFTA Breakthrough Brit. Check out his sound cloud to hear some of his material: https://soundcloud.com/segunakinola

Fun Fact: Did you know..?

Coretta Scott King won a scholarship to study at the New England Conservatory in Boston.

Mahaliah Edwards is a student at the Birmingham Conservatoire and a blogger for Behind the Bridge.

Today we remember the passing of Dizzy Gillespie who Died: January 6, 1993, Englewood, New Jersey

John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie was an American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, composer, and singer. Gillespie was a trumpet virtuoso and improviser, building on the virtuoso style of Roy Eldridge but adding layers of harmonic and rhythmic complexity previously unheard in jazz.

His combination of musicianship, showmanship, and wit made him a leading popularizer of the new music called bebop. His beret and horn-rimmed spectacles, his scat singing, his bent horn, pouched cheeks, and his light-hearted personality provided some of bebop's most prominent symbols.

In the 1940s Gillespie, with Charlie Parker, became a major figure in the development of bebop and modern jazz. He taught and influenced many other musicians, including trumpeters Miles Davis, Jon Faddis, Fats Navarro, Clifford Brown, Arturo Sandoval, Lee Morgan, Chuck Mangione, and balladeer Johnny Hartman.

Scott Yanow wrote, "Dizzy Gillespie's contributions to jazz were huge. One of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time, Gillespie was such a complex player that his contemporaries ended up being similar to those of Miles Davis and Fats Navarro instead, and it was not until Jon Faddis's emergence in the 1970s that Dizzy's style was successfully recreated. Gillespie is remembered, by both critics and fans alike, as one of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time"

In the 1980s, Gillespie led the United Nation Orchestra. For three years Flora Purim toured with the Orchestra. She credits Gillespie with improving her understanding of jazz.

He starred in the film The Winter in Lisbon that was released as El invierno en Lisboa in 1992 and re-released in 2004. The soundtrack album, featuring him, was recorded in 1990 and released in 1991. The film is a crime drama about a jazz pianist who falls for a dangerous woman while in Portugal with an American expatriate's jazz band.

In December 1991, during an engagement at Kimball's East in Emeryville, California, he suffered a crisis from what turned out to be pancreatic cancer. He performed one more night but cancelled the rest of the tour for medical reasons, ending his 56-year touring career. He led his last recording session on January 25, 1992.

On November 26, 1992, Carnegie Hall, following the Second Baháʼí World Congress, celebrated Gillespie's 75th birthday concert and his offering to the celebration of the centenary of the passing of Baháʼu'lláh. Gillespie was to appear at Carnegie Hall for the 33rd time. The line-up included Jon Faddis, James Moody, Paquito D'Rivera, and the Mike Longo Trio with Ben Brown on bass and Mickey Roker on drums. Gillespie was too unwell to attend. "But the musicians played their real hearts out for him, no doubt suspecting that he would not play again. Each musician gave tribute to their friend, this great soul and innovator in the world of jazz."

A longtime resident of Englewood, New Jersey, Gillespie died of pancreatic cancer on January 6, 1993, at the age of 75 and was buried in Flushing Cemetery, Queens, New York City. Mike Longo delivered a eulogy at his funeral.

On June 25, 2019, The New York Times Magazine listed Dizzy Gillespie among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the 2008 Universal fire.

29.01.20 MUSICBOX The Legendary Tigerman

"Inspirado no velho formato de one-man-band nascido nas margens do Delta do Mississipi”.  É assim que começa o press release de The Legendary Tigerman. E assim tem sido nos últimos 20 anos. A primeira frase sempre foi o mote, a fundação de tudo, quase como um mantra que ecoaria em cada canção de Paulo Furtado. Mas o homem tigre vestiu muitas peles, galgou terreno nos 7 continentes, abraçou cada um de nós, fosse na sala mais pequena do Japão ou no maior festival da Europa. Tigerman fez-se de muitas formações, muitos formatos para entregar o rock n’ roll como só ele sabe... em doses desmedidas de turbulência e agitação, exactamente como tem de ser. 20 anos depois da estreia a solo, The Legendary Tigerman regressa ao palco novamente sozinho, acompanhado apenas da sua guitarra, um kit de bateria e um kazoo. Serão 11 cidades, 11 celebrações do mais puro rock n’ roll e blues. Únicas e irrepetíveis. Únicas e apetecíveis. “Queria começar um projeto que fosse lendário logo �� partida, como uma provocação” dizia, altivo e sagaz, The Legendary Tigerman. Pois então que se celebrem as provocações no tempo do politicamente correcto. Celebre-se o amor às causas. Celebre-se o Rock n’ Roll lendário... em cada noite, em cada cidade, como se fosse a última vez.

30.01.20 LUX FRÁGIL VALSA DE VIANA Jeff Mills

Jeff Mills is considered the most brilliant DJ and producer of Techno Music  in the World. He is the most recoｇnized representative figure of Detroit Techno , where he began his career as a DJ on the WDRQ radio in 1984. He has created with “Mad Mike Banks” the collective “Underground Resistance”, which became a reference in the electro sphere. In 1992, Jeff Mills created his own label in Chicago :with “Axis”, he could keep his artistic independence and produce his own timeless electronic music compositions, inspired of science fiction. Jeff Mills’ artistic career goes much further than techno music.

For over a decade, he’s been transcending disciplines with a large number of collaborations in contemporary art. Interested in cinema and attracted by images, Jeff Mills started working, in 2000, on the fusion of image and sound. In 2000, he created and presented at the Centre Pompidou a new sound track for the film “Metropolis” by Fritz Lang. A year after, he created “Mono”, an installation inspired by the movie “2001, a Space Odyssey”, by Stanley Kubrick. In 2004, Jeff Mills produced the DVD “Exhibitionist” which presents DJ sets filmed from various angles (from front, top and side). At that same period, he acquired a new tool, the DVJ-X which allowed him to manipulate image and sound together paving the way into the Art World. 

In 2005, Jeff Mills made, for MK2, a new sound track for the silent movie “Three Ages” by Buster Keaton, and created a serie of 6 video art works presented in Paris at the Galerie Georges-Philippe et Nathalie Vallois and at the « rendez-vous vidéo » of the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Rouen. Jeff Mills continued this work period with a production on Josephine Baker, presented during the FIAC 2005 in the Grand Palais. 

On July 2nd 2005, Jeff Mills played together with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Montpellier, for the 20th anniversary of the Pont du Gard's inclusion in the world heritage list by UNESCO. Together with the orchestra, Jeff Mills performed his own compositions, orchestrated by Thomas Roussel for this occasion. In 2007, he was invited by the movie director Claire Denis to create the sound environment of the exhibition « Diaspora » at the musée du quai Branly in Paris.. That same year, Jeff Mills received the title of « Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres» from the French ministry of Culture. In 2008, Jeff Mills was commissioned to create a comtemporary installation for 100 Year Anniversary of the Futurist Manifesto at the Pompidou Center.

Depois de já ter sido a casa dos principais promotores locais e palco de festas de alguns dos mais interessantes agitadores internacionais, chega a vez de Inatel, uma noite 100% de curadoria musical VU . Não é a primeira vez que o espaço promove uma noite em nome próprio, as festas Madame e o mítico aniversário do Village que acontece em Maio, são exemplo de festas em que a programação musical fica a cargo do espaço, mas Inatel marca o início de um novo ciclo, e traz à sala indoor do VU um conceito que tem sido esquecido e ultrapassado, pela necessidade de encher lineups. Por isso Inatel será sempre a noite em que brilha apenas 1 DJ (ou uma dupla), durante toda a noite, neste caso, 7 horas.   São as All Night Sets do VU, a inaugurar com... Stereo Addiction. Village Underground Lisboa launches its own night promoting something that has been somehow lost in many clubs and nights: the all night sets. DJs playing the opening, the middle and the closing slots, giving them the opportunity to create something special with the audience, a story they want to tell. For the first night, Village Underground has chosen a long time well known techno duo from Lisbon, Stereo Addiction. The duo is Gustavo and John-E who have played together in London, Berlin, Serbia, Japan, Brasil and all the main festivals in Portugal. Gustavo is the producer of all events at Village and is behind the scenes of all the major techno festivals in Portugal including the dance temple at boom festival. As John-E continues to play for the most underground and great parties all over Lisbon. The duo is known for their close friendship and unique complicity, created throughout the more than 25 years playing together, raving dance floors and having fun.

As Portugal still is a significant religious nation, Christmas is somewhat of a big deal. It is such a joyful and heartwarming season. It even makes you to forget its cold outside and just in enjoy holidays in Portugal.

Sonia Wieder-Atherton - Song In Remembrance Of Schubert

Sonia WIEDER-ATHERTON - violoncelle

For Sonia Wieder-Atherton, music has always been a laboratory. Her unbounded research has taken her from one repertoire to another, from one discovery to the next. Constantly exploring criss-crossing musical avenues, she unravels the received wisdom in a relentless pursuit of meaning.

She was born in San Francisco of a mother of Romanian origin and an American father.

She grew up in New-York and then Paris, where she enrolled at the Conservatoire National Supérieur, studying with Maurice Gendron. She very soon found herself investigating form and sound, already seeking a language that could be a common denominator for all music.

At 19 she crossed the iron curtain to live in Moscow, where she studied with Natalia Shakhovskaya at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory. Her years there left an indelible mark, for, in addition to receiving a top-class education, she took away a special relationship with time, stories and man.

Returning to France she has never stopped querying the repertoire. At 25, she won the Rostropovich Competition.

Sonia Wieder-Atherton works as tirelessly as she experiments. She enjoys nothing better than to decipher the language of contemporary composers like Pascal Dusapin, Georges Aperghis, and Wolfgang Rihm, all of whom she has been prompt to champion and who have written for her.

Researching the "classical" repertory with equal devotion, her curiosity sets her interpretations apart.

She performs as a soloist under the guidance of numerous conductors, notably: the Paris Orchestra, the French National Orchestra, the Belgian National Orchestra, the Liège Philharmonic, the Israel Philharmonia, the Gulbenkian Orchestra in Lisbon, the Philharmonic Orchestra of Luxembourg, the NDR Orchestra in Hanover, the REMIX Ensemble, Les Siècles, Asko/Schönberg… and works regularly with musicians like Imogen Cooper and Raphaël Oleg, with whom she records and performs in concert.

In recent years she has instigated a wide range of projects conceived as complete musical and visual experiences: Jewish songs, a cycle for cello and piano inspired by the art of the Hazzan; Eastern songs, for cello and instrumental ensemble, conceived as a journey from Russia to Central Europe; Vita, for cello solo and three cellos, in which she tells the story of Angioletta-Angel via two timeless geniuses, Monteverdi and Scelsi; Odyssey for cello and imaginary choir, in which a woman, alone with her cello, accompanied by a soundtrack, faces the elements : wind, waves, chaos, storms; and her latest project, Little Girl Blue, from Nina Simone.

For Sonia Wieder-Atherton, playing Bach, Beethoven, Jewish songs or Nina Simone, is the same movement, asking the same questioning: that of a voice that can never be understood if it is heard in isolation.

Sonia Wieder-Atherton constantly pushes back the boundaries, venturing with her cello into other artistic forms, with projects like From the East in music, a show designed with footage from Chantal Akerman's film Est, and two projects with celebrated actresses: Danses Nocturnes, with Charlotte Rampling, featuring works by Benjamin Britten and Sylvia Plath, and Marguerite Duras' Navire Night with Fanny Ardant.

In 2011, she received the Bernheim Foundation Award, which each year acknowledges three creative works in the fields of the arts, literature and science.

BUTOH-TECHNO

We have invited musicians and dancers to participate in this spectacular project that links two cultural worlds. Butoh-Techno is a spectacle that combines improvised and techno music, visuals and dance movements to tell a fable of man living a life as journey. Both dancer and musicians are characters in this performance playing on the metaphorical stage of life. Butoh dancer uses his body to tell stories of falls and uprises while struggling against odds of life. Muscians take role of his friends as well as his adversaries. They build obstacles or make it easier for him to overcome them by creating multilayer abstract spaces filled with improvised and techno music and live visuals. The idea for the spectacle originated from collaboration of Shepherds of Cats with Japanese musician Ayako Ogawa and polish artist Filip Zawada. The stream of mutual intuitions and understanding, various aesthetical and cultural roots and need to share different ways of looking at the same world led us 3 years ago to create Butoh-Techno. The spectacle flourish each year with new ideas and it will be third year we will perform it.

Shepherds of Cats

They use improvisation as working method to create sonic stories and worlds, drenched in incredulity at their own existence. Plethora of instruments, found sounds and moving images allow them to layer contrasting sounds to create haunting and mesmerising soundscapes. Bells chime, bows scrape, moans and groans weave in and out, found and synthesized sounds intermittently warm the pieces sonically while their colaboration with VJ add visual dimension to their intriguing performances. They explore the outer boundaries of sound, pushing it to the limits of what can be considered acceptable in the realm of so called music. Their compositions are created in real time, though sometimes time as well as good taste and other senses maybe suspended. In 2015 and 2017 Shepherds of Cats toured Germany and UK to play concerts in places such as at Kreuzung an St. Helena for In Situ Art Society in Bonn, Das Gespinst in Essen, MK Gallery in Milton Keyens, The Kazimier Gardens in Liverpool and the legendary Cafe OTO in London. They colaborate closely with Manchester-dwelling saxophone swinger and Tombed Vision Records headmaster David McLean, german trombonist Gunter Heinz, japanese pianist Ayako Ogawa, composer and Lisbon experimentalist Pascal Ansell AKA Panelak. Maciek Piatek AKA VJ Pietrushka, experimental live video maker. In collaboration with their Japanese and Polish friends they created Butoh – Techno spectacle. Shepherds are:

Aleksander Olszewski - ethnic percussion

Adam Webster – cello, voice

Jan Fanfare – guitar, loops, voice

Dariusz Blaszczak – synthesizers and electronics

Aching Lullaby: The Week in Classical Music

[Read all of our classical music coverage here.]

Readers and listeners, here’s wishing you a very happy, and hopefully relaxing, Memorial Day weekend.

On Monday I went to the premiere screening of a restored version of Meredith Monk’s “Quarry” at Anthology Film Archives. (Seth Colter Walls did a fascinating interview with her a few days before, with excerpts from the restoration.)

There are dated aspects to the piece, but also passages of great beauty and performances of intense commitment. (Here, in very much not restored footage, is an amazing Ping Chong as the nameless Dictator.) It was a poignant moment when, during a question and answer period after the screening, the handful of original performers who were in the audience were asked to stand.

I hadn’t known that the aching solo that opens Ms. Monk’s breakthrough album “Dolmen Music” (as “Gotham Lullaby”) is at the core of “Quarry.” I can’t think of a better way to observe Memorial Day than Björk’s cover of the piece, performed in Germany on Sept. 11, 2001:

Next weekend brings, to Amsterdam, the staged presentation of a significant portion of scenes from Karlheinz Stockhausen’s seven-opera cycle, “Licht.” (We will have reporters on the ground covering it; I reviewed a one-act preview — specifically, the second act from “Dienstag aus Licht” — during the Dutch National Opera’s Opera Forward Festival last year.)

As Ben Miller writes in this sharp preview, productions of these operas have been hard to come by — in part because of Stockhausen’s extraordinary staging requirements. Most famous of these, perhaps, is the “Helicopter String Quartet,” from “Mittwoch aus Licht,” in which each member of a string quartet boards a different helicopter, and plays the work after taking off into the air.

Paradoxically, this most difficult-to-stage portion of “Licht” has long been the easiest section of the cycle to hear at home. While recordings of most of “Licht” can only be purchased by mail order, from the Stockhausen Verlag, a studio recording of the “Helicopter String Quartet” has long been more widely available on a release by the Arditti String Quartet.

You won’t derive any sense of the overall “Licht” narrative from this string quartet, though the work does provide a look at Stockhausen’s vibrant imagination, as tremolo playing from the string instruments collides with the whirring of propeller blades. SETH COLTER WALLS

On Sunday, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Leon Botstein led The Orchestra Now in a program called “Abstraction in Music and Art,” tied to one of the Met’s current exhibitions. With just about 45 minutes of playing, this was more of a lecture than it was a traditional orchestral concert. But the stretches of commentary and the performances both had their moments.

Mr. Botstein delivered some learned, witty remarks (complete with slide show) on the aesthetic ties between Anton Webern, Morton Feldman and the visual art scenes of their respective eras. Webern’s “Six Pieces for Orchestra” was played sensitively, twice, both before and after the intermission.

Yet the real star of the show was the belated New York premiere of Feldman’s “Orchestra”: a nearly 20-minute work of drifting sublimity that predates the composer’s “Neither,” a one-act opera with a text by Samuel Beckett.

Mr. Botstein and the players did justice to the strangeness of “Orchestra.” A meditative mood prevailed through whisper-quiet passages and more formidable, massed ones. And the strings brought a sneaky sense of unease to the haunting melodic line that reappears throughout the work’s final minutes.

That same riff turns up, later, in “Neither” — as well as in “Elemental Procedures,” another piece that Feldman drafted before the opera. (Feldman fans can find recordings of both “Orchestra” and “Elemental Procedures” on a recent recording from the Wergo label.) SETH COLTER WALLS

The pianist Daniil Trifonov is clearly drawn to the turbulent, mercurial, sometimes downright strange elements of Schumann’s fantastical piano music, as he showed earlier this year in a recital at Carnegie Hall. That evening he performed the quirky collection of short pieces called “Bunter Blätter” (“Colored Leaves”), almost never played complete, and tore through another rarity, the “Presto Passionato.” (He will play that program again on July 26 at Caramoor in Katonah, N.Y.)

Last Saturday Mr. Trifonov played Schumann’s Piano Concerto with the Met Orchestra and Valery Gergiev at Carnegie Hall. (The orchestra returns with Yannick Nézet-Séguin on June 3 and June 14.) Not surprisingly, he brought out the rhapsodic Romanticism of the music. Yet I was even more impressed by the grace and clarity of his playing, especially in the dreamy slow movement and the buoyant, rippling finale.

Here he is in an excerpt from the finale, from a 2017 performance in Lisbon. The intricate arpeggio figures that go through a sequence of shifting keys sound almost Mozartian here. ANTHONY TOMMASINI

On Monday, the composer and pianist Kelly Moran completed a residency at Roulette in Brooklyn with a selection of prepared-piano works that have occupied three of her recent releases — “Bloodroot” (one of our “best classical recordings” picks, in 2017), as well as the subsequent full-length “Ultraviolet” and the EP “Origin,” both of which use electronics in a more prominent way.

I was, once again, delighted by the pieces from “Bloodroot.” But I also found myself enjoying later ones just as much. In works like “Helix,” the electronic, granular low end of Ms. Moran’s setup suggests the gravitas of a pipe organ — and also works as a foil for her graceful and percussive live pianism.
