今日はクリストファー・ホグウッドの誕生日。1941年、ノッティンガムの生まれ。
モーツァルトの交響曲全集は「交響曲」として演奏されたセレナードの抜粋なども含んだ膨大なもので、音楽学者としての研究成果の集大成の1つだった。
今日は矢代秋雄の誕生日。1929年、東京・大森の生まれ。父親は美術史家の矢代幸雄。
残念ながら一般には殆ど知名度がないか。映画音楽などの仕事は行わなかった。寡作な上に早世してしまったのが悔やまれる。死因は心不全だが、芸大教授として多忙な日々を送っていたことで過労に陥っていた可能性が高い。
個人的には「交響曲」を第一に挙げるか。「ピアノ協奏曲」は中村紘子が折に触れて取り上げていた。

今日はリヒャルト・シュトラウスの命日。1949年没、享年85。
1908年頃から当初は別荘として購入したガルミッシュパルテンキルヒェンの邸宅に最期の時まで住んでいた。邸宅は歴史的建造物として保護されているが非公開とのこと。周辺のストリートビューも存在しない。 https://note.com/chihomikishi/n/n194acaa0a6e4 ここで「エレクトラ」以降の全ての作品が書かれている。
ガルミッシュパルテンキルヒェンには遺族が寄付した遺品をもとにリヒャルト・シュトラウス研究所が設立され、遺品の展示やリサイタルが開催されている。https://maps.app.goo.gl/ygBfeix7FHjb2ygs8
今日はアントニン・ドヴォルザークの誕生日。1841年生まれ。
生家は現在記念館として整備されている。https://maps.app.goo.gl/xkkUT8uikxvyZQ5j7 隣の広場には指揮棒を持ったドヴォルザークの像が据えられている。https://maps.app.goo.gl/cEfBRHjxHGdXELb27
付近に鉄道が通っているが、開業したのは1850年、ドヴォルザークが9歳の頃。今はドヴォルザークが「鉄ちゃん」だったと言われることが増えているが、確かに子供の頃に自分の村に鉄道が敷設されて開業する様子をつぶさに見ていれば、その印象は強く残りそう。
父親は肉やだったが、アマチュアの音楽家でトランペットなどを演奏できた。
