  1. Beethoven: The Last Three Sonatas/Mitsuko Uchida album review – the music emerges as if new
    By Erica Jeal

    DeccaThere are no major surprises in this live recording, just the simple but sublime sense that the music is being handed from composer, through pianist, to us

  10. Monday's Prom sounds interesting. I saw Abel Selaocoe premier his own cello concerto with the Aurora Orchestra in the Edinburgh Festival last year, and was very impressed.

    Definitely one to listen on catch up! (I was at a jazz gig on Monday - it is the entity Jazz Festival, after all!)

  13. 今日はヨゼフ・シュトラウスの命日。1870年、楽旅に出張したワルシャワで脳卒中と見られる発作を起こし、ウィーンに辛うじて帰宅したものの、自宅で息を引き取る。享年42。

    今だったらやっぱり「過労死」と表現するのが適切か。元々体力的には弱かったが、作曲と演奏活動にかなり無理をしていたらしい。

    現在の墓はウィーン中央墓地の父ヨハンの墓の向かいに位置している。

  14. Bugger, it appears The Proms has crept up on me again this year. I alway forget for sum reason, bit of a blind spot for me? Thanks to BBC Sounds for suggesting one of my faves, the 'ole Ludwig Van's Glorious 9th (as Alex puts it), really gets the krovvy flowing, and never fails to bring a tear to the glazzies!

  16. Lilypond question:

    Lilypond is much nicer to engrave in than Dorico/MuseScore, but the latter two are much nicer for composing (e.g., when I need to quickly insert/re-order things), at least with my current Lilypond knowledge.

    Does anyone have suggestions on inserting/re-ordering material in Lilypond, or should I just do Dorico -> MusicXML -> musicxml2ly?

  18. BBCPhil/Noseda/Selaocoe review – a proms concert that was everything the festival does best
    By Alexandra Coghlan

    Royal Albert Hall, LondonA programme – Bach, Beethoven and a Jessie Montgomery premiere – that looked odd on paper made perfect sense in the hall, with Abel Selaocoe a mesmerising soloist in Montgomery’s ‘These Righteous Paths’

  20. I just received a CD of two more of Louis Spohr’s symphonies — I fell in love with the Fourth a couple years ago. The № 6 has the title “Historical Symphony in the Style and Taste of Four Different Periods.” The first movement is from the age of Bach & Handel, 2nd from that of Haydn & Mozart, 3rd from that of Beethoven, and fourth from “the very latest period.” I look forward to seeing how authentic he could manage to be.

    Spohr’s dates are 1784–1859; compare with Beethoven’s 1770–1827.

    In my opinion, Spohr is one of the most underrated early-romantic composers.

  31. Ariadne auf Naxos review – Laurent Pelly’s staging has plenty of wit but lacks weight
    By Erica Jeal

    Glyndebourne, East SussexThe director hits perfectly all the comic marks of Strauss’s opera about an opera, but there’s few insights in a work that should be moving as well as frothy and fun.
