Although it has featured in five of the last six seasons. Which is a bit punchy. #BBCproms #classicalmusic

The Ravel Piano Concerto in G major the gateway from #jazz to #ClassicalMusic for many I suspect. Including me. #BBCproms

今日はヘルベルト・フォン・カラヤンの命日。1989年没、享年81。

心臓発作を起こした時に当時ソニーのCEOだった大賀典雄が傍にいた。ちょうどソニーからリリースする映像作品について打ち合わせしていた折のことだった。

亡くなったアニフの別荘の前の通りにはカラヤンの名が付されている。https://maps.app.goo.gl/982A5Zyzeg7BUTMH8

「【7月15日】
本日はカール・チェルニー(1791-1857)の命日。ベートーヴェンの弟子でリストの師。多作で知られ、日本では練習曲の大家として知られますが、多くの絶版作品などから、21世紀に入り再評価が進み、弦楽四重奏の初演や練習曲を音楽作品として録音する試みなど真の姿に光が当たっています。」 / X
