Music For Upright Piano Composer's Autograph Series

Music For Upright Piano Composer's Autograph Series

Einojuhani Rautavaara 's Music For Upright Piano . Commissioned by Radio Helsinki and dedicated to Ralf Gothoni. In 1965, when Einojuhani Rautavaara was thirty-seven years old, he was awarded the prestigious Sibelius Prize, previously given to Stravinsky, Hindeman, Messaien, Britten, Shostakovitch and Lutoslawski. A member of one of Finland's most important musical families (comparable to the Casadesus family) Rautavaara first attracted public acclaim in 1954 with 'Requiem In Our Time'. Following his studies at Helsinki university and the Sibelius Academy, Rautavaara held scholarships at Juilliard, Tanglewood and Cologne. In 1971 he was appointed State Professor of Fine Arts and in 1976 joined the faculty of the Sibelius Academy as Professor of Composition. He was elected to the Swedish Royal Academy and is a member of the Board of the Society of Finnish Composers. Rautavaara 's earliest compositions were influenced by folk music, Bartok, Stravinsky and Prokofiev; later he embraced serialism. The 'Second String Quartet', an Opera, 'The Mine' and 'Symphony No. 3', which pays homage to Bruckner and Berg, belong to this period. Around 1967 Rautavaara entered a third period rejecting atonality and reintroducing folk elements. His later works include 'True And False Unicorn' and 'The Water Circle' for Chorus and Ensemble; concertos for Cello, Violin, Piano and Soprano; a work for four Celli and Piano, 'Regular Sets Of Elements In Semi-Regular Situation'; a 'Concerto For Birds And Orchestra' (tape and Orchestra); a dramatic work, 'Apollon Contra Marsyas'; 'The Temptations' for Orchestra; and 'Dancing Helsinki', for four Saxophones and Orchestra.

Carl Czerny: One Hundred Progressive Studies for the Piano, Op. 139

Yehudi Wyner: Piano Concerto “Chiavi In Mano”

Yehudi Wyner: Piano Concerto “Chiavi In Mano”

The idea for a Piano concerto for the Boston Symphony was instigated by Robert Levin, the great Mozart scholar and Pianist. The idea was evidently embraced by BSO Artistic Administrator Tony Fogg and supported by Music Director James Levine. Much of the concerto was composed during the summer of 2004 at the American Academy in Rome in a secluded studio hidden within the Academy walls. While much of the composing took place far from home, the concerto comes out as a particularly “American” piece, shot through with vernacular elements. As in many of my compositions, simple, familiar musical ideas are the starting point. A shape, a melodic fragment, a rhythm, a chord, a texture, or a sonority may ignite the appetite for exploration. How such simple insignificant things can be altered, elaborated, extended, and combined becomes the exciting challenge of composition. I also want the finished work to breathe in a natural way, to progress spontaneously, organically, moving toward a transformation of the musical substance in ways unimaginable to me when I began the journey. Transformation is the goal, with the intention of achieving an altered state of perception and exposure that I am otherwise unable to achieve. “Chiavi in mano” – the title of the concerto – is the mantra used by automobile salesmen and realtors in Italy: Buy the house or the car and the keys are yours. But the more pertinent reason for the title is the fact that the piano writing is designed to fall “under the hand” and no matter how difficult it may be, it remains physically comfortable and devoid of stress. In other words: Keys in hand."" - Yehudi Wyner, December 13, 2004
