Maciej Frąckiewicz Soloist With NOSPR, Katowice - Polandby Harley Jones |
Video: Fachwerk composed by Sofia Gubaidulina, soloist Maciej Frackiewicz, Live performance from Konzerthaus in Detmold, Germany, Published on Feb 23, 2016. The Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra (NOSPR) is featuring composer Sofia Gubaidulina on the 10th November, with a performance of "Under the Sign of Scorpio", soloist Maciej Frackiewicz (picture right), conducted by Christopher Lyndon-Gee (picture below). One of the favorite instruments of Gubaidulina is the bayan and about "Under the Sign of Scorpio" (composed 2003), she wrote: "The title comes from the fact that this work has been dedicated to one of the most important musicians of our time, bayan player Friedrich Lips, who was born under the sign of Scorpio. (Indeed, this is also my zodiac sign)." Soloist Maciej Frackiewicz was the winner of the 20th ‘Arrasate Hiria’ International Accordion Competition in Spain (2012). He studied with Klaudiusz Baran (FCUM Warsaw), with Inaki Alberdi, (ESMUC Barcelona), Grzegorz Stopa (HFM Detmold) and Mie Miki (Folkwang Universität der Künste). In 2013 he received the “Polityka” magazine “Passport” award for “very mature and diverse interpretations of contemporary music and other music genres. For courage, daring and consistency. For enriching the musical repertoire. For his concert creations and stimulating our imagination, as well as his persuasive strength”. He regularly appears on stage to perform solo parts with the leading orchestras in Poland, as well as in several chamber ensembles. He is also a devoted propagator of accordion among contemporary composers. It was his initiative or inspiration that influenced composing over 70 new works for accordion. |
Pauline Oliveros in Concert at the Jewish Museum, New York – USAby Rita Davidson Barnea |
Pauline Oliveros will perform in ‘Bang on a Can’ on Thursday November 10th, 7.30pm, at the Jewish Museum, 1109 Fifth Avenue at 92nd Street, New York City. ‘Bang on a Can’ and the Jewish Museum are presenting the second concert of their 2016-2017 concert season featuring seminal American composer Pauline Oliveros. Accompanying the exhibition, ‘Take Me (I'm Yours)’, the concert will feature Oliveros performing ‘The Sound of Meditation’ on Roland V Accordion. Like the exhibition, the concert also blurs the boundary between the performer and the audience by asking the listener to participate in the making of music. Since the 1960s Pauline Oliveros has influenced American music profoundly through her work with improvisation, meditation, electronic music, myth and ritual. In the 1950s she was part of a circle of iconoclastic composers, artists, poets in San Francisco. She is the recipient of the John Cage award for 2012 from the Foundation of Contemporary Arts, and serves as Distinguished Research Professor of Music at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY and Darius Milhaud Artist-in-Residence at Mills College. She has been as interested in finding new sounds as in finding new uses for old ones - her primary instrument is the accordion, perhaps an unexpected visitor to the musical cutting edge. Pauline is the founder of ‘Deep Listening’, which she describes as a way of listening in every possible way to everything possible to hear no matter what you are doing. Such intense listening includes the sounds of daily life, of nature, of one's own thoughts as well as musical sounds. "Deep Listening is my life practice," she explains, simply. Oliveros is the founder of the Center For Deep Listening at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY, formerly the Pauline Oliveros Foundation. |
