BERLINER BAROCK SOLISTEN

MOZART: VIOLA CONCERTO/SINFONIA CONCERTANTE

El famoso concierto para clarinete con viola solista y la popular Sinfonía Concertante en una nueva grabación a cargo del excelente conjunto barroco y los solistas de la Filarmónica de Berlín.

La Berliner Barock Solisten, fundada en 1995 por Rainer Kussmaul, Raimar Orlovsky y otros destacados miembros de la Filarmónica de Berlín, destaca en el ámbito de los conjuntos de música antigua. Utilizan instrumentos antiguos pero modernizados y arcos específicos de la época, creando un enfoque único de las obras de los siglos XVII y XVIII. Su excepcional homogeneidad y sus solistas de primera fila han asegurado su reputación internacional. Conocidos por su capacidad para presentar composiciones históricas desde una perspectiva contemporánea, destacan en la interpretación de los maestros italianos, Telemann y Bach. A lo largo de 26 años, su característico estilo interpretativo ha sido aclamado por el público y la crítica de todo el mundo. Las colaboraciones con artistas de renombre como Thomas Quasthoff, Anne Sofie von Otter y Emmanuel Pahud aumentan aún más su prestigio. Bajo la dirección artística del maestro Reinhard Goebel, los Berliner Barock Solisten siguen causando un impacto significativo en el mundo de la música antigua. Su grabación del Concierto de Brandemburgo de Bach para Sony Classical se convirtió en un éxito de ventas y recibió un OPUS KLASSIK como grabación de concierto del año.

Desde el notable éxito del violista Diyang Mei en el Concurso Internacional de Música ARD 2018, no ha dejado de avanzar en su carrera internacional. Como solista, ha actuado con orquestas prestigiosas como la Orquesta Sinfónica de la Radio de Baviera y la Konzerthausorchester de Berlín, y en festivales notables como el Festival de Mecklemburgo-Pomerania Occidental. Mei ha colaborado con estimados músicos como András Schiff y Sabine Meyer. Desde octubre de 2022, ocupa el puesto de violista solista de la Filarmónica de Berlín, tras su cargo de primer viola principal de la Orquesta Filarmónica de Múnich. Mei también actúa como músico solista y ha recibido numerosos elogios a lo largo de su carrera.

Noah Bendix-Balgley es el concertino y primer violín de la Filarmónica de Berlín, cargo que ocupa desde que en 2014 abandonó la Orquesta Sinfónica de Pittsburgh, donde desempeñaba la misma función. Como solista, ha actuado con orquestas de renombre como la Filarmónica de Dresde, la Orquesta Filarmónica de Radio Francia, la Orquesta Filarmónica de Auckland y la Orquesta Filarmónica de Nagoya, así como con las orquestas sinfónicas de Shanghai, Utah, Pittsburgh y Baltimore. Apasionado de la música de cámara, Bendix-Balgley es miembro de varios conjuntos, entre ellos el Cuarteto de cuerda Rosamunde y el septeto Philharmonix, que fusiona varios géneros.

I love listening to bass arias. As a high bass, there is near zero representation of my voice type in music. Most singers are high tenors or baritones at lowest and the small handful of basses making their rounds are basso profundos, which is amazing, but a little lower than my range and tessitura.

I cannot tell you how it makes me feel to hear voices like Rene Pape or Thomas Quasthoff, to hear timbres of notes and projection that usually mean the notes are outside of my range and yet, when I sing along, I find them comfortably in my tessitura.

It's a beautiful thing and I wish there was more bass representation outside of opera, a couple country or soul singers, and the basso profundos of YouTube and acapella groups

Papagena/Papageno Duet - Montserrat Caballé y Thomas Quasthoff

[sayiklamalarim]

Bu kadar.. Bütün ömrüm bir kahve fincanının içinde hapsolmuş gibi. Elimden tutup bayram yerine götürmüştü beni babam. Elinden tutup sessiz mezar taşlarının diyarına götürdüm sonra. Kucak dolusu virgül taşımıştım soru işaretlerinin nezaretinde.. Bekledim çok. Tek başıma.. Biri cevap versin istedim gözyaşlarıma. Biri anlasın tedirgin hızlı konuşmalarımı.

Çağırsan gelirdim. Çağırmasan ölürdüm.

İşte şimdi kapına geldim ayaklarımın zoruyla. Kapında durdum öyle.

Fakat işte yoksun yine. Ziller beyhude yankılanıyor boş evde.

Nihayet anladım;

Boşuna yaşamışım ben de..

Hello! What are your favourite classical music pieces to listen to?

hi!

i LOVE chopin’s nocturnes, especially played by arthur rubinstein. and i feel you can’t really go wrong with yiruma, ludovico einaudi, and lorenzo masotto. 

when it comes to studying in particular, i love piano renditions of pop songs, because the tune is familiar but as there are no lyrics to compete with the words i’m reading i don’t get distracted, and it’s fun, so it lifts my mood. erik satie’s gymnopedie 1 also really helps me concentrate, as does clair de lune.

in terms of being a bit more extra, i love ‘halloween’-type pieces and have since i was a child, like in the hall of the mountain king, the sorcerer’s apprentice, danse macabre, night on bald mountain, mozart’s requiem in d minor, bach’s toccata and fugue in d minor, liszt’s totentanz, etc.

other misc: i think schubert’s der leiermann is stunning, especially thomas quasthoff’s version. i used to play cello, so i love, e.g., elgar’s cello concerto in e minor, fauré’s élégie (ADORE julian lloyd webber’s version) and romance op 69, vivaldi’s cello pieces, etc ❤️
