  • #ClassicsaDay #Bernsteinat100 Week 2

    Aug 10th, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #Bernsteinat100, #ClassicsaDay, Classical music, contemporary classical music, Franz Schubert, George Gershwin, Leonard Bernstein, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Twitter

    August 2018 is the centennial of Leonard Bernstein’s birth. Many classical radio stations, performance groups, and writers marked the occasion. And so did #ClassicsaDay. Bernstein was known as a composer, conductor, performer and an educator. Since #ClassicsaDay is primarily a music feed, I concentrated on the first two of those roles (and occasionally the third).

    Apr 6th, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #ClassicsaDay, #PoetryMonth, Claude Debussy, Franz Liszt, Franz Schubert, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Twitter

    What’s the connection between classical music and classic poetry? That was theme some of us decided to explore with #ClassicsaDay. For April 2018 we posted examples of settings of poetry in classical music, works inspired by poetry, and more. Here’s an annotated list of the works I posted for the first week of #PoetryMonth.   […]

    The Deceptively Easy Mastery of Gilbert Kalish

    Aug 11th, 2014 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Bridge Records, CD Review, Classical music, Classical piano, Franz Joseph Haydn, Franz Schubert, Gilbert Kalish, Ludwig van Beethoven

    In this recording of Haydn, Beethoven and Schubert, Gilbert Kalish presents an appealing program of works he knows well. The opening and closing works are the final piano sonatas of their respective composers — Haydn and Schubert, with a selection of short works by Beethoven in the middle. Haydn’s Sonata No. 62 in E-flat (Hob.XVI:52)  […]

  • The Strange Case of the Schubert Symphonies

    Nov 20th, 2013 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Franz Schubert, Romantic period, Symphony

    If there’s one thing most people know about Franz Schubert, it’s that his most popular symphony is unfinished. If there’s a second thing folk remember about Franz Schubert, it’s that he only wrote nine symphonies. But if you look carefully at the list, you’ll notice two oddities. Symphony No. 1 in D major, D 82 […]
