SUMMARY:Echo and Image
DESCRIPTION:Guarneri Hall presents the complex world of Sergei Prokofiev through the lens of his nine piano sonatas. From biting modernism to wartime introspection\, this three-part series traces a musical and cultural evolution\, exploring the rarely discussed Russian Avant-Garde of the early twentieth century. \n\n\n\n\nEcho and Image concludes our series with Prokofiev’s Piano Sonata No. 5\, which stands apart as his only piano sonata composed entirely abroad. Prokofiev wrote No. 5 in 1923\, during his years touring internationally as a pianist and composer before returning to the Soviet Union despite the growing artistic censorship of Stalin’s regime.  \n\n\n\nIn contrast\, the expansive Piano Sonata No. 8 (1944) and the enigmatic Piano Sonata No. 9 (1947)\, both written after his return to the Soviet Union\, reveal a markedly different artistic landscape: more introspective\, complex\, and shaped by the socio-political pressures of life back home. Together\, these three works trace Prokofiev’s life from exile to return\, as his compositional language and identity evolved in his final contributions to the piano sonata genre.  \n\n\n\nThe program will be hosted by Tanya Landau\, PhD candidate in the department of Musicology at Northwestern University with opening remarks from Inna Naroditskaya\, Professor of Musicology at Northwestern University. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\nSergei Prokofiev (1891-1953): Piano Sonata No. 5\, Op. 38Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Sonata No. 8\, Op. 84Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Sonata No. 9\, Op. 103 \n\n\n\nArtists: Adam Neiman\, piano; Tanya Landau\, host; Inna Naroditskaya\, guest speaker

SUMMARY:Revolutions 1: 1796
DESCRIPTION:How does change really happen? What is revolutionary change? Are there relationships between political revolution\, social revolution and musical revolution?  \n\n\n\nRevolutions 1 explores these questions through the music and politics of 1796\, in the aftermath of the French Revolution. In fact\, post-revolutionary Paris was also home to a revolutionary time in the development of the bow. Violinist and violin expert Stefan Hersh will explain how changes in bow design led to changes in music that helped to usher in the heightened emotional range of the Romantic era that followed.  \n\n\n\nA program of selected works by Mozart\, Haydn and Beethoven will bring these revolutionary changes to life. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\nWolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791): Sonata for Violin and Piano in E minor\, K. 304Joseph Haydn (1732-1809): Piano Trio No. 35 in C major\, Hoboken XV:21Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827): Piano Trio Op.1\, No. 3 \n\n\n\nArtists: Chelsea Wang\, piano; Nathan Meltzer; Alexander Hersh\, cello

SUMMARY:Revolutions 2: 1918
DESCRIPTION:How does change really happen? What is revolutionary change? Are there relationships between political revolution\, social revolution and musical revolution?  \n\n\n\nRevolutions 2 explores these questions through the music and politics of 1918\, in the wake of World War I and the Russian Revolution. As monarchies dissolved and empires transformed\, boundaries that had previously constrained composers gave way and new compositional freedoms burst forth\, as evidenced in works by Ravel\, Stravinsky and Janáček.  \n\n\n\nSocial scientist Andreas Glaser will add perspective to what promises to be a 3-way conversation between scholars\, musicians and the Guarneri Hall audience. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\nMaurice Ravel (1875-1937): DuoIgor Stravinsky (1882-1971): L’Histoire du SoldatLeoš Janáček (1854-1928): Quartet No. 1\, “The Kreutzer Sonata” \n\n\n\nArtists: Chelsea Wang\, piano; Nathan Meltzer and Eric Gratz\, violin; TBD\, viola; Alexander Hersh\, cello; Katherine Jimoh\, clarinet

Williams returns to Guarneri Hall for Winterreise\, a cycle of 24 songs composed by Schubert in 1827 and set to texts by Wilhelm Müller.  \n\n\n\nIn failing health and nearing the end of his brief life\, Schubert was in a deeply melancholic frame of mind as he composed Winterreise.

SUMMARY:Syncopated America (Feb 9)
DESCRIPTION:Grammy-nominated pianist John Novacek brings his deep inside knowledge of ragtime to Guarneri Hall for a solo performance that celebrates this uniquely American style. Syncopated America features wonderfully informed performances of classic rags by Scott Joplin\, Joseph Lamb\, James Scott and others alongside some of Mr. Novacek’s own compositions. Some are incredibly touching\, others raucous fun.

SUMMARY:For the Birds: Music of Olivier Messiaen (Mar 29)
DESCRIPTION:The French composer-organist Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was fascinated by birdsong. His field collection of the songs of hundreds of bird species\, meticulously transcribed into musical notation\, would become a vital musical source for Messiaen.  \n\n\n\nFor the Birds explores two of Messiaen’s works most deeply influenced by birdsong: Quartet for the End of Time\, where birds symbolize nature free and unfettered\, and selections from the Catalogue d’oiseaux\, where they evoke rich non-human ecologies within their natural habitats. \n\n\n\nJohn Bates\, Curator of Birds and Section Head of Life Sciences at the Field Museum\, will introduce the program. \n\n\n\nArtists: Daniel Pesca\, piano; Maria Ioudenitch\, violin; Graham Steele Johnson\, clarinet; Alexander Hersh\, cello; John Bates\, guest speaker \n\n\n\nThe program repeats on March 30 at Guarneri Hall.
