The present DVD brings together the recordings of two of Helmut Lachenmann's orchestral works that originated far apart in time, but are similar in their small-scale scoring (strings and 3 grand pianos or just strings): Klangschatten - mein Saitenspiel (1972) and Double (Grido II) (2004). We filmed Double in May 2016 with the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrucken Kaiserslautern under the musical direction of Peter Hirsch, who has long been collaborating with the composer. Two films have been created from the sectional rehearsals of several hours in length (Sectional rehearsal violins/ Sectional rehearsal violas, cellos, double basses) in which, among other things, Lachenmann explains in detail and demonstrates the relevant playing techniques. Our camera could accompany the rehearsals of Klangschatten - mein Saitenspiel (SWR Sinfonieorchester Baden-Baden and Freiburg, conductor: Pascal Rophe) for only a few hours. The result is two shorter rehearsal films, giving nonetheless a good insight into the piece that Lachenmann describes as one of his favorites among his own works. (Wiebke Popel)In 2015/16 I travelled across Europe with cameraman Michael Zimmer to document a total of nine orchestral rehearsals of and with [meaning rehearsals of music by HL, conducted by HL? OR?] Helmut Lachenmann in the course of Lachenmann Perspectives, a project of the Musik der Jahrhunderte. This DVD series is the filmic result of these journeys.

It's bewitched! Valentina, the little witch, together with Chebby the fox, guides the young students through the 3 volumes of the school, which was designed for pre-school children or young elementary school students, in an age-appropriate manner. Accordingly, the pace of learning is very gentle. Long explanatory texts were avoided and instead motivating exercises, music puzzles and illustrations to color in were used. Volume 1 initially focuses on gripping the left hand and the tones g' to c''. Volumes 2 and 3 will follow in 2016.

The cycle Scenes for solo flute, written in September 1997 and dedicated to Ãdám Szokolay, occupies an extraordinary place in György Kurtág's oeuvre. The premiere of the long-withheld composition was held in 2016 on the composer's 90th birthday. Each movement in the cycle reformulates familiar gestures of Kurtág's music: it develops pensive, impetuous, ethereal or playful characters. Signs, Games and Messages are collections for solo instruments and small chamber ensembles. Each of the three words refers to an essential factor in Kurtág's music. Signs ties to the composer's study year in Paris as a young man, when he could not compose but merely put graphic signs on the paper. Games links with his nine-volume series for the piano with that title. Messages conveys the very personal content of these works, in that these short pieces are actually diary-notes and missives to musicians and friends important to Kurtág. The collection - like similar collections for string and wind instruments - does not form a coherent cycle; thepieces can be played individually, or in various orders, or together with pieces from Signs, Games and Messages written for other instruments.

We have travelled very far to record this last DVD of the Lachenmann Perspectives: In March 2015, the rehearsals of Kontrakadenz [Contra Cadence] took place in the Casa da Musica in Porto, Portugal, under the direction of Lothar Zagrosek. Sectional rehearsals had already familiarized musicians of the Orquestra Sinfonica do Porto with the most important playing techniques. Together with Helmut Lachenmann, these were then further consolidated, specific noise sounds with, for instance, table tennis balls, spinning metal discs, and water-filled zinc tubs were thoroughly elaborated. For SCHREIBEN [Writing], we then followed Lachenmann to San Sebastian in February 2016. There, with the Orquesta Sinfonica de Musikene under the direction of Arturo Tamayo, we had in front of the camera a student orchestra, motivated, though still not experienced with the music of Lachenmann. What the composer also explains in the interview, becomes very clear in the rehearsals: how the starting point of the piece, the idea of writing, is picked up and implemented for each instrument individually. The rehearsals of both pieces were predominantly in English - so the films are mostly without subtitles.

This is a fascinating and important book for everybody even remotely interested in the history of American bands. Bryan Proksch has done some painstakingly thorough research in putting together an amazing assemblage of documents… This is a must-have book! —Jon Ceander Mitchell   The Wind Music Research Quarterly: Mitteilungsblatt der IGEB   (March 2022), 14–15 For the scholar, each entry presents an opportunity for expansion. For the teacher, this work provides source readings for courses on wind band history or for complementing Strunk or Weiss-Taruskin in university music history courses. That said, these documents stand as an enriching and entertaining read in their own right for anyone interested in the subject. —Michael O’Connor   Historic Brass Today 1/2 (Spring 2022), 32 The Golden Age of American Bands is ideally suited for courses on the history and literature of bands in America. Indeed, this volume could suffice as a textbook for adventuresome teachers in that it touches on the major musicians, instruments, ensembles, and functions expected of such a course. . . . Both private and classroom band instructors will find compelling glimpses into the history of their craft. [It is] bursting with opportunities to inspire curiosity in their students while effectively supporting their own curricular goals. —Benjamin D. Lawson and James A. Davis   The Journal of Music History Pedagogy Proksch’s new collection of documents is a most welcome step in the direction of getting [the story of bands] under control. The juxtaposition of documents from so many levels and types of ensembles proves to have a cumulative effect: one begins to see the subtle and long-lasting connections among them despite the big differences. It is easy to envision it as a supplemental text in a course on band history and literature, but the book is also just an absorbing read. There is much to learn here, and much to enjoy. —Ken Kreitner   Notes 79/2 (December 2022): 217-218 This is the story of the American wind band, told chronologically by those who experienced it in real time from 1835 to 1935.

Through source documents and articles, Bryan Proksch takes us on an extraordinary journey from the time of the first brass bands in the 1830s, through the Civil War and the golden ages of Gilmore and Sousa, to the cusp of the wind ensemble just before World War II.

King as he muses on the fate of bands after the death of Sousa. See Patrick Conway’s first undergraduate music education curriculum. Gawk as trombonist Fredrick Neil Innes embarrasses “world’s greatest cornetist†Jules Levy at Coney Island. Explore as Alan Dodworth revolutionizes bands. Retreat with a military band in the middle of a Civil War battle. Find out what it felt like to sit in a Sousa Band rehearsal. Ask Herbert L. Clarke why he thinks you should be playing a cornet instead of a trumpet. Find out how P. S. Gilmore managed to pull off the biggest concert events in American history. The book includes numerous rare and unknown illustrations to show you the places where band history happened. The documents include rare periodical excerpts, handwritten letters, and other writings taken from archives throughout the United States. These first-person accounts are certain to further refine and deepen our understanding and appreciation of American band history on a grand scale.
