Rachmaninoff’s The Isle of the Dead transforms Böcklin’s painting into a dark, hypnotic sound-journey. A small boat approaches a lonely island as the orchestra pulses in a steady 5/8 rhythm, like oars cutting through black water. Echoes of the Dies Irae cast a shadow over the music, turning the piece into a brooding reflection on death, memory, and the quiet pull of the unknown.

Florence Price (1887-1953):
Symphony No. 1 in E minor

#ClassicalMusic #symphony #MusicWomenWednesday
Inspired by Böcklin’s iconic painting, Rachmaninoff’s symphonic poem imagines a solitary boat gliding through dark waters toward a silent, mysterious island. The steady 5/8 pulse suggests the rhythm of oars, while the haunting Dies Irae theme drifts through the score as a reminder of mortality.
He shapes a powerful vision of transition — between life and death, memory and oblivion — shadowy, poetic, and deeply human.

今日はオリヴィエ・メシアンの誕生日。1908年生まれ。
現代音楽の部類に入れられることの多い作曲家の中では、「トゥーランガリーラ交響曲」や「世の終わりのための四重奏曲」など、今でも比較的演奏機会は多い方。一般に知られているとまでは言えないけれど。

Sharp, bold, and deeply influenced by Schoenberg, Hanns Eisler’s early chamber pieces fuse expressionist intensity with a growing political edge. These works show a young composer breaking rules, experimenting with atonality, and shaping a clear, uncompromising voice.
Fierce, modern, and full of character — a glimpse of Eisler before he became a leading musical voice of the Left.

Got that pesky gig out of the way this morning. (Beethoven Cavatina from Op.130, and bits of Schubert and Haydn, as part of a memorial service.). A typical Suffolk church in December, wherein pew heating keeps congregants warm, but not those (us) doing the work. And there was a lot of sitting around waiting for the next time to play: cold hands and cold feet. (Even though it was a balmy 13° outside, that’s not a temperature for performing in.) It was all ‘pitch perfect’ said the client, but more ‘I think we got away with it’ on my side.

「トゥーランガリーラ交響曲」や「世の終わりのための四重奏曲」辺りは今でも演奏機会は多い。ただ、クラシックを積極的には聴いてない層にまでは広がっていないかなぁ。
Australian carols that are perfect for celebrating Christmas in the sun

The lovely opening movement of Camille Saint-Saens' piano quartet in b-flat major Op. 41, played here by the Fine Arts Quartet with Christina Ortiz on the piano from a 2013 Naxos CD (if you expand the description, you can find the playlist of the whole album):

今日はジャン・シベリウスの誕生日。1865年生まれ。ハメーンリンナの生家は現在はシベリウスの博物館になっている。https://hmlmuseo.fi/ja/home/見どころ/シベリウスの生家/ 1965年以降とあるから、要するに生誕100年を記念して博物館化されたんだな。
第二次大戦の最中にソ連がフィンランドに侵攻を仕掛けていたものの、ハメーンリンナはヘルシンキの北北西にあって、そこまでは侵攻されなかったのが幸いしたとも。
Now, a more recent recording from 2018. Two top-class personalities joined forces to perform and record Viennese songs from the turn of the century: the soprano and conductor Barbara Hannigan and the legendary pianist and conductor Reinbert de Leeuw, who died in 2020 after a long illness.

Very grumpy now. Had a rehearsal that was moved (by the violinists) to a venue that was twice as far away, and not comfortable, and they (the two violinists) had unilaterally decided not to use the supplied edition of the music (= different bowings and articulations and no bar numbers, making rehearsing more difficult). And they also seemed not to be very familiar with one of the pieces. Where they did have musical views, they were almost diametrically opposed to mine.
I had been looking forward to this. Sigh.

Iannis Xenakis — sound as architecture, energy, and myth.
Syrmos (1959): A raw, electrifying string piece where glissandi collide and swarm — music as pure sonic physics.
Polytope (1970s): Xenakis’s legendary light-and-sound environments — architecture, lasers, and electronic sound fused into immersive, futuristic ritual spaces.
Medea (1967/68): Fierce, primal, and ritualistic — Xenakis channels ancient tragedy into explosive rhythms and elemental vocal writing.

Mathis der Maler — Paul Hindemith’s powerful symphony about the role of the artist in times of crisis. Inspired by the painter Grünewald and his struggle between artistic calling and political oppression, the work becomes a musical statement about integrity, moral courage, and the responsibility of art.
Luminous, turbulent, and deeply human — a symphony about creating beauty when the world turns dark.
