<\/p>{:}{:en}Rachmaninov' \u00e9tudes - by Zolt\u00e1n Kocsis\r\n
Composed in 1911 and 1916 (Op. 33 and Op. 39,respectively), the \u00e9tudes-tableaux were highly successful and were popular repertoire pieces of celebrated pianists. True to its name, the set consists of painterly descriptions, motivated accounts of experiences, moving psychological portraits, rather than mere \u00e9tudes. And as such, they lend themselves well to orchestration. Unsurprisingly, Respighi\u2019s cycle of five pieces stood the test of time and when in 2003 I first presented them to the Hungarian audiences, I secretly envied the brilliant orchestrator for having a free hand to pick the most characteristic and effective pieces of the two sets. Perhaps subconsciously it was then that I decided to follow suite and orchestrate a few \u00e9tudes-tableaux.Personally, I was more inspired by the lesser known ones; those that were rarely performed in their original form.When comparing the sound ideals of Rachmaninov and Respighi, it is striking just how much importance the Italian master attaches to appearances and how much more so than the composerhe likes to polish his style in his Latin way. Naturally I endeavoured to follow Rachmaninov\u2019s orchestration practice that is based more on the composer\u2019s unique treatment of the orchestra than on customary pianistic architecture. As much as Rachmaninov\u2019s piano works and orchestral works overlap, there is a striking difference. There are many reasons for that, including the Russian composer\u2019s larger-than-average hand size and his activity as a conductor. Consequently, my job was considerably more challenging than expected. The job of choosing a title, however, was no more difficult than Respighi\u2019s had been.\r\nThe composer revoked the D-minor \u00c9tude (Op. 33 No. 5) shortly before publication, together with two other pieces of the much-anticipated set, and the manuscript was not found and published in Moscow until after Rachmaninov\u2019s death. It is not known why he decided to cancel publication. The most likely reason is because he was displeased with his work. Whether or not he was right is up to the listener to decide. While working on the orchestration I had Alexei Tolstoy\u2019s charming hero Buratino in mind, whose adventures the \u00e9tude tells in miniature form. The other pieces are equally evocative. The C-minor \u00c9tude (Op. 39 No. 1) is thought to have been inspired by Rachmaninov\u2019s favourite Symbolist German painter Arnold B\u00f6cklin\u2019sIn the Play of the Waves (Spiel der Wellen), a painting depicting a mythological scene with nymphs and satires. However, to my mind the music is considerably more \u201ctempestuous\u201d than the painting would suggest.<\/p>\r\n

The era marked by the name of J\u00e1nos Ferencsik and Kobayashi Ken-Ichiro was followed by a new chapter in the history of the orchestra when in 1997 Zolt\u00e1n Kocsis became general music director until his death. In almost two decades the National Philharmonic Orchestra underwent renewal. After the death of Zolt\u00e1n Kocsis, the Ferenc Liszt Award-winning Zsolt Hamar held the post of Musical Director at the Hungarian National Philharmonic from March 2017 to August 2020. He previously worked with the orchestra as its first permanent conductor and built up an impressive international career.\r\n\r\nThe Orchestra is one of the top interpreters of the work of B\u00e9la Bart\u00f3k, and the albums of the Bart\u00f3k New Series<\/em> have won numerous accolades in Hungary and abroad. The orchestra perform not only classics but also numerous other important works previously missing from the repertoire, many of which require a large orchestral apparatus. It attaches great importance to introducing contemporary Hungarian works to the audiences. It has given many popular chamber music concerts and hosted events for young people.\r\n\r\nThe orchestra\u2019s concerts have featured world-famous soloists and conductors. It supports young musicians recently embarked on an international career. In recent decades, the National Philharmonic Orchestra has appeared in the greatest venues and festivals around the world, including the Avery Fisher Hall in New York, the Suntory Hall in Tokyo, the Birmingham Symphony Hall, the Megaron in Athens, Bozar Centre in Brussels, the Enescu Festival in Bucharest, the Beethoven Festival in Bogot\u00e1, as well as the Colmar and Canary Island Festivals. In the past two decades, the National Philharmonic Orchestra has given more than 330 concerts in some 40 countries.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n {:}","post_title":"{:hu}Nemzeti Filharmonikus Zenekar{:}{:en}Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra{:}","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"nemzeti-filharmonikus-zenekar","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-08-10 08:27:54","post_modified_gmt":"2020-08-10 08:27:54","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/www.filharmonikusok.hu\/institutions\/nemzeti-filharmonikus-zenekar\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"institutions","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"gombtipus":"link","jegyarak":"","jegyvasarlas_gomb":"","elkeltek_a_jegyek":false,"youtube_id":"","old_id":"","hivatkozas_gomb_szovege":"Tov\u00e1bb","hivatkozas_gomg_url-je":""},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filharmonikusok.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/concerts\/101367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filharmonikusok.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/concerts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filharmonikusok.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/concerts"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filharmonikusok.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
