Radoslav Kvapil (piano)

In comparison with his symphonies and chamber works, Dvorák’s piano oeuvre has been paid relatively scant attention. The composer himself was not a virtuoso and by means of the piano he frequently gauged the bearing capacity of his musical ideas, instrumenting a number of his originally piano compositions shortly after completing them. Accordingly, his piano pieces lack virtuoso flamboyance and are more than anything else a reflection of his inner life. It concerns delicate personal lyricism, the capturing of momentary ideas which are, however, cultivated with the refinement of a musical genius.

This delicacy and inner wealth fully come to the fore at the hands of Radoslav Kvapil, a pianist renowned as an eminent connoisseur and promoter of Czech piano music. In addition to the complete piano works of Dvorák and Janácek, his discography includes the breakthrough recording of J. V. H. Voríšek’s works. Radoslav Kvapil has had the opportunity to represent Czech music on many prestigious concert stages worldwide, including the Royal Albert Hall, Barbican and Carnegie Recital Hall.

簡介:

關於巴哈這首「郭德堡變奏曲」的版本，數量之多不在話下，不過基本上還是以鍵盤樂器的演奏，包括鋼琴、大鍵琴、古鋼琴與管風琴的版本居多。1903年波蘭籍的女大鍵琴家蘭朵芙絲卡，為當代的詮釋揭開序幕，並於1933年完成此曲的世界首度錄音，半個多世紀以來此曲也成為各方名家競相詮釋的重要曲碼。1980年代初由小提琴家西特寇維茲基，將此曲改編為弦樂三重奏版，並由他和中提琴家柯塞、大提琴家麥斯基作世界首演，將此曲以全新的面貌呈現。成軍於1994年的阿瑪替三重奏團，對於此曲一直相當偏愛，他們以手中的樂器在許多國家包括荷蘭、以色列等地，完成此曲弦樂三重奏版本的首次演出。本輯是他們為紀念加拿大鋼琴怪傑，也是被公認為巴哈音樂權威的顧爾德，於1999年特別錄製的。累積多年的心得與特別的情感，阿瑪替三重奏以自然流暢的手法將樂曲性格刻畫入微的精采詮釋，讓人回味無窮。（舊版編號：B-99564）

CIACCONNA, partita II in D min BWV 1004

‘Bach’s Chaconne from the Partita for solo violin in D minor BWV 1004 has enjoyed a quite exceptional destiny, not only in the devotion it has inspired in so many of the finest performers, but also because of the close attention it has received from a number of other composers, among them Brahms, Busoni and Lutz.

This work has acquired a paradoxical status, representing at one and the same time a musical tradition at its most accomplished, and the height of modernity.’ Evelyne Delmas

------------------------------------------------------------------
Edna Stern - a pupil of Krystian Zimerman in Basel, Martha Argerich in Brussells and Leon Fleisher in the USA, and prizewinner of the Juventus Foundation - herself belongs to this to-and-fro between musical tradition and modernity. It was while she was studying basso continuo at the Musik-Akademie in Basel that her improvisation teacher Rudolf Lutz wrote and ultimately dedicated to Edna Stern his 32 variations on Bach’s chaconne.

After we have listened to these transcriptions by three composers and ‘disciples’, Amandine Beyer - holder of a Premier Prix from the Paris Conservatoire on the modern violin, and a soloist’s diploma from the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis under Chiara Banchini on the Baroque instrument, winner of the First Prize at the Antonio Vivaldi International Violin Competition of Turin, and prizewinner of the Juventus Foundation - offers us a timelessly beautiful interpretation of the original chaconne on Baroque violin.

ZIG-ZAG Territoires collection

ZIG-ZAG Territoires catalogues offers 100 records since nearly 10 years.

We consider our role as record producers to be that of mediators between artists and public. The choice of programmes, venues and sound balance is the result of a constant dialogue with the artists. As the catalogue has grown, the approach to sound recording developed by Franck Jaffrès has become established as one of the label’s hallmarks.
Zig-Zag Territoires wishes to offer along with its CDs - unique objects, halfway between individual craftsmanship and industry - a genuine intellectual and aesthetic complement, through in-depth booklet notes and original artwork by the painter Anne Peultier. It has turned out to be an exciting adventure, enriching the experience of record-making, which becomes an artistic exchange between label, musicians, sound engineer, painter, designer.
We have built the label on artists whom we have succeeded in bringing forward ourselves, such as the harpsichordist Blandine Rannou (complete keyboard works of Rameau, English and French Suites of J. S. Bach, works by Couperin) and on the arrival of artists of international reputation: Ensemble 415 and Chiara Banchini, Anima Eterna et Jos van Immerseel. The values we represented - the capacity to listen to artists, and creativity in graphic design -certainly corresponded precisely to what Jos van Immerseel no longer found with Sony...

BACH - SUITES

Jean-Marc Apap - the eclectic violist, regular partner of Richard Galliano, the Rita Mitsouko, and his brother Gilles Apap, a brilliant graduate of the Curtis Institute of Philadelphia - presents the cello suites of J. S. Bach on the viola. This free approach to the music brings his experience of jazz and Indian music to bear on the universality of Bach.

The transcriptions of the Leipzig Chorales add three contrasting interludes to the rhythm of this solo CD, three excursions towards the peaks of Bach’s polyphonic art. The wealth of traditional expertise so typical of improvised music makes a vivid contribution to these new readings.

An authentic and passionate approach, a highly original slant on the indestructible, ever-fresh music of Bach.

CPE BACH - Violin and Pianoforte

Their common aesthetic approach in our programme centring on the Chaconne of J. S. Bach transcended the differences between styles (Busoni, Brahms, Lutz) and instruments (Baroque violin and Steinway piano). Now they meet in the music of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach - this time both playing period instruments.

Bach - Sonates pour violon & clavecin - Malgoire / Rannou

Thanks to his intimate acquaintance with both the harpsichord and the violin, Bach did not opt for sonatas for violin accompanied by harpsichord, but instead used his mastery of the specific features of each instrument to combine them in a conversation of equals, where one cannot exist without the other.

Inspired by Bach’s polyphonic vision, Blandine Rannou, Florence Malgoire and Franck Jaffrès took great care to position the two instruments on the same sonic plane, so that the recording would place us at the centre of the polyphony, rejecting the notion of a violin in the foreground with an accompanying harpsichord set behind it. And thanks to this, everything becomes crystal-clear . . .

We can hear Bach’s attention to the interplay of timbres (plucked strings, bowed strings), as if he were dealing with organ stops where each voice is of equal importance. We can appreciate the sparring between the violin and the harpsichordist’s right hand, while the left hand provides the harmonic and rhythmic structure, the soaring melodic lines on the violin while the harpsichord articulates, the moments where the violin comments on the arabesques of the harpsichord . . . Bach’s ingenuity is endless. Sonata no.6 - with its extraordinary wealth of contrapuntal lines - recalls both the festive jubilation of the Brandenburg Concertos and (in its middle movement) the fruitful harmonic tensions of the Musical Offering. All Bach is here, in that magical process whereby two artists merge into one.

Claude-Bénigne Balbastre（1727—1799）出生在第戎，但是关于他的出生时间现在还有争议。他的父亲是第戎的一位管风琴师，结过两次婚有18个子女，Claude-Bénigne是他的第16个孩子。Claude-Bénigne最初的音乐教师自然是他的父亲，之后他又成为Claude Rameau的学生——C. Rameau是Jean-Philippe Rameau的弟弟，也是第戎人。1750年，Claude-Bénigne Balbastre来到巴黎跟随Pierre Février学习并且之后接替了他的老师在Saint Roch教堂的管风琴师一职。Jean-Philippe Rameau也帮助了这位年轻人并把他介绍给巴黎的音乐圈子以及上流社会。这以后他的职业生涯开始步入辉煌：他在圣灵音乐会上演奏，先后担任了皇家礼拜堂和巴黎圣母院的管风琴师，教授路易十六和他的皇后Marie-Antoinette羽管键琴以及管风琴。
