Hildegard of Bingen: De Spiritu Sancto (Holy Spirit, The Quickener Of Life) zevnikov 2023-04-06 | Hildegard of Bingen (German: Hildegard von Bingen; Latin: Hildegardis Bingensis; c. 1098 – 17 September 1179), also known as Saint Hildegard and the Sibyl of the Rhine, was a German Benedictine abbess and polymath active as a writer, composer, philosopher, mystic, visionary, and as a medical writer and practitioner during the High Middle Ages. She is one of the best-known composers of sacred monophony, as well as the most recorded in modern history. She has been considered by scholars to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany.Hildegard's convent elected her as Magistra (mother superior) in 1136. She founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. Hildegard wrote theological, botanical, and medicinal works, as well as letters, hymns, and antiphons for the liturgy. She wrote poems and supervised miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias. There are more surviving chants by Hildegard than by any other composer from the entire Middle Ages, and she is one of the few known composers to have written both the music and the words. One of her works, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play. She is noted for the invention of a constructed language known as Lingua Ignota.

He wrote: "Joyful, danceable melodic loops grow into a unified whole, while the music is designed in surprisingly rich-sounding consonances. Thus, with a new sound, I established a dialogue with the past. The sounds of medieval musical instruments add to the excitement of the audiofrescoes that spread out before us.

Despite a childhood accident that left him partially blind, his passion for music, particularly the guitar, remained unwavering.Tárrega honed his skills under local musicians, developing a unique right-hand fingerpicking technique that revolutionized guitar playing. This innovation, characterized by a balance between melody and accompaniment, offered a new level of sophistication to the instrument.Furthermore, Tárrega dedicated himself to elevating the guitar's repertoire. He meticulously transcribed numerous works originally written for piano and other instruments, expanding the available pieces for guitarists.In 1874, Tárrega entered the prestigious Madrid Conservatory, but his focus remained firmly on the guitar. By the late 1870s, he had established himself as a virtuoso performer and a sought-after teacher.Tárrega's influence extended far beyond his own compositions. He mentored a generation of exceptional guitarists, including Miguel Llobet and Emilio Pujol, who became instrumental in solidifying the foundation of modern classical guitar playing.Tárrega's own compositions, like the melancholic yet hopeful "Lágrima" (Spanish for "tear"), stand as testaments to his mastery of melody and harmony. These pieces solidified his place in the pantheon of classical guitar composers.Francisco Tárrega's life was a story of dedication and innovation. He transformed the classical guitar from a folk instrument into a voice of profound beauty and expression, leaving an indelible mark on the musical world.

J.S.Bach: Violin Concerto No. 2 in E major | A Fabulous Musical Journey | zevnikov 2024-01-26 | The Violin Concerto in E major, BWV 1042, by Johann Sebastian Bach is a concerto based on the three-movement Venetian concerto model, albeit with a few unusual features as each movement has "un-Italian characteristics". It is written for violin, strings, and continuo in the following movements: Allegro, Adagio, Allegro assai. While there are two 18th-century scores, neither is autographed; however, Bach re-used the concerto as the model for his Harpsichord Concerto in D major, BWV 1054, found in his 1737–39 autographed manuscript of these works. The concerto is thought to have been written when Bach was working for the court of Köthen or when Bach was in Leipzig.Icelandic-Slovenian violinist, Rannveig Marta Sarc, is increasingly recognized as a versatile and dynamic musician. She enjoys an active performing career as a soloist, chamber musician and teacher, and has performed throughout Asia, North America and Europe.

O Little Town of Bethlehem - A Christmas Carol zevnikov 2023-12-15 | "O Little Town of Bethlehem" is a Christmas carol. Based on an 1868 text written by Phillips Brooks, the carol is popular on both sides of the Atlantic, but to different tunes: in the United States, to "St. Louis" by Brooks' collaborator, Lewis Redner; and in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Ireland to "Forest Green", a tune collected by Ralph Vaughan Williams and first published in the 1906 English Hymnal. The text was written by Phillips Brooks (1835–1893), an Episcopal priest, then rector of Church of the Holy Trinity, Philadelphia, and later of Trinity Church, Boston. He was inspired by visiting the village of Bethlehem in the Sanjak of Jerusalem in 1865. Three years later, he wrote the poem for his church, and his organist Lewis Redner (1831–1908) added the music.

After an initially modest public reception, the oratorio gained in popularity, eventually becoming one of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music.Megaron Choir is by my humble opinion one of the best European youth choirs. Their energy, virtuosity, and competence are beyond rational understanding. Megaron Chamber Choir was founded in October 2003 on the initiative of Damijan Močnik, composer and conductor, and united former students of the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium at St. Stanislav’s Institution in Ljubljana, who had before been active in various choral ensembles and received music education in one or more of the five choirs at the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium. As such, Megaron Chamber Choir represents the peak of the choir pyramid of St. Stanislav’s Institution. In the sixteen years since its founding, Megaron Chamber Choir has evolved into a high-quality choir performing regularly in Slovenia as well as in Austria, Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Poland, USA, and Canada, and thus earning a reputation at home as well as abroad.More: kzmegaron.com/aboutLive recording from Church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary, Koper (Capodistria)Megaron Baroque Orchestra and Megaron Choirconductor: Gary Gradenconcertmaster: Maria LindalII. violins: Maria LindalMojca JermanŽiga FaganelGilberto CerantoII II. violins: Joanna DobrowolskaAjda PorentaAnja NovljanEleonora ZanneViolas:Boyana MaynalovskaAsja FrankCellos: Alja Mandič FaganelPetra GrebloDouble Base: Daniele RosiOboa:Stjepan NobiloGabriel GramescFagot: Paolo CalligarisTrumpets: Miha PetekKristijan ZupanTimpani:Barbara KernikOrgan:Pierpaolo Turetta Megaron Choirartistic director: Damijan MočnikSopranIva BevcKatarina BriškiPatricija GrilTadeja JelnikarLucija KovačMana KrižnarNeža Križnar RističZalka LeskovarLucija MalovrhNeža MavčičMarjeta NahtigalMarta NovakJana PoredošLucija RusLucija TomcJerca UraničAna ZajecKatja ZgojznikNika ZgojznikTenorŽan BelcaPeter BerkopecAnton Jakob BončaUrban BošticMartin DrobničMiha FerjanJakob JakličPeter KunsteljAndraž RističValentin SojarFilip SuhadolcRok ŠtefanJan TrilerLovro Zupanc KovačMiha Zupanc KovačAltAna BenedikMojca BerkopecAmber BervarBernardka ČemažarLucija FabjančičTinkara JerkičLonja KlavžarAja Koblar TutičJerica KorpnikAna LamberšekMarta LegatKarolina MarcKlavdija OkolišAna Lucija ParkeljLara PlanincAna PrekAna RističMaruša RojcMagdalena SojarLora ŠtravsKlara ŽnideršičBasAmbrož BajtAndrej Emanuel CotmanMatevž FabjančičMatija JagerMatic KotarRok KotarTomas MejiasJan NovakJakob PanceAmbrož RenerJure StareLuka ŠtiftarSimon ZgoncProduction CrewCut Production Production Lead: Gal NagodeProduction assistant and dolly operation: Dan AžmanProduction assistant: Jakob ZevnikSound design: Danilo ŽenkoLight: Gal Nagode and Sebastijan ZavrlTube rerecording: Iztok ZupanFloral: Diana Argentirecorded in Capitol Church in Koper (Capodistria) SloveniaPPZ and TAJUS with Megaron Cultural Society production: Producers: Juš Hrastnik, Damijan Močnik, Primož Zevnikbroadcast director: Primož Zevnik
Agnus Dei - Music Against War, Death and Misery (Share it!) zevnikov 2023-11-01 | When Samuel Barber wrote his beautiful Agnus dei for choir, he had no idea that his music would be a messenger of peace. The world is heading dangerously towards war, misery, death, hunger, suffering and dehumanization. God Ares, god of bloody war is tirelessly awakening. He will leave nothing behind. Only the death of millions, tears and generations of innocent young men who will rot in forgotten graves. In front of you is a ray of the sun, which is like the smile of our creator, a ray of music that leads us to reconsider and to believe that it is possible to live in peace and brotherhood. That violence begets violence and solves nothing. It creates nothing, builds nothing, but destroys everything to the dark abyss of endless tears, destruction and oblivion. Today Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Palestine, yesterday Syria, tomorrow Europe, then a spiral of horror that will have no end or place. Agnus Dei - The Lamb of God is here. Hidden in this music, in the mystery and serenity of peace. Share it with others. Let him cry out his silent prayer to us. We are still human and we can still love each other.Primož Zevnik, PPZ production.Performed by The Slovenian Philharmonic Choirconductor: Jerica BukovecSlovenian Philharmonics director: Matej ŠarcThe Slovenian Philharmonic Choir was established as a professional choir in 1991.

Hildegard of Bingen: O Strength of Wisdom (O Virtus Sapentiae) zevnikov 2023-10-26 | Hildegard of Bingen (German: Hildegard von Bingen; Latin: Hildegardis Bingensis; c. 1098 – 17 September 1179), also known as Saint Hildegard and the Sibyl of the Rhine, was a German Benedictine abbess and polymath active as a writer, composer, philosopher, mystic, visionary, and as a medical writer and practitioner during the High Middle Ages. She is one of the best-known composers of sacred monophony, as well as the most recorded in modern history. She has been considered by scholars to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany.Hildegard's convent elected her as Magistra (mother superior) in 1136. She founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. Hildegard wrote theological, botanical, and medicinal works, as well as letters, hymns, and antiphons for the liturgy. She wrote poems and supervised miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias. There are more surviving chants by Hildegard than by any other composer from the entire Middle Ages, and she is one of the few known composers to have written both the music and the words. One of her works, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play. She is noted for the invention of a constructed language known as Lingua Ignota.St. Stanislav Girls’ Choir of the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium is among the best European choirs led by charismatic conductor Helena Fojkar Zupančič.

In May 1941, a magnificent main altar with a statue of St. Jožef (made by sculptor Božidar Pengov). But this decoration only enriched the church for a short time. In 1949, the post-war authorities confiscated it, together with the two houses and all other property, in the pursuit of the Jesuits. On April 23, 1949, the two priests took the Blessed Sacrament to the cathedral. The next day, Holy Sunday, the bells no longer invited us to worship... During the visit of John Paul II. in 1996, it was returned again and now it is renewed waiting for the blessing. It housed a film studio in the post-war years. It was rebuilt and damaged, so the state restored it and returned it to its former beauty.

J.S.Bach: Violin Concerto No.1 in a minor BWV1041 - (A Superior Performance) zevnikov 2023-09-08 | Ranni exclusive on Bach series is a first-class PPZ production event. We recorded series in a Trinity Church Ljubljana, Slovenia in the spectacular baroque set with vibrant Orchestra matutina, led by her father Matej Šarc, a recognized oboist and director of Slovenian Philharmonics. Icelandic-Slovenian violinist, Rannveig Marta Sarc, is increasingly recognized as a versatile and dynamic musician.

While it is "generally thought to have been composed at Köthen in 1717–23". Christoph Wolff has argued that the work may have been written in Leipzig during Bach's time as director of the Collegium Musicum.The piece has three movements:1. Allegro moderato, in A minor The opening movement is in ritornello form. This means that there is a main section that comes back in fragments in both the solo violin and orchestral parts. This 'ritornello' can be found in the first movement up until bar 24. The motifs of the theme appear in changing combinations and are separated and intensified throughout the movement.2. Andante, in C major, common time meter; In the Andante second movement, Bach uses an insistent pattern in the ostinato bass part that is repeated constantly in the movement. He focuses the variation in the harmonic relations. Butt notes that "Bach seems to have associated" the ostinato scheme "particularly with violin concertos.". 3. Allegro assai, in A minor,In the final movement Bach relies on bariolage figures to generate striking acoustic effects. The meter and rhythm are those of a gigue. Butt describes it as "perhaps Bach's most animated and carefree movement in the minor mode."Production crewJuš Hrastnik - executive producer Gal Nagode - production manager and light Tadej Pernuš - camera operatorMatej Zagorc - crane operatorMB Grip group - cameras, dolly, crane, lensesJakob Zevnik - media manager and Ursulines of the Roman Union - set dressingTaja Križnar Starčič, floral, scenography, cateringTinkara Šubic, scenography, floral, cateringOliver Dizdarević, balance engineerIztok Zupan, masteringJuš Hrastnik - assistant director Primož Zevnik - producer and director Productions: TAJUS, KLOPOTEC, PPZ, Slowind Musical Society, Orchestra matutinaPPZ production wants to thank Ursulines of the Roman Union Ljubljana for its amazing and friendly hospitality and help with production.
William Boyce: Symphony No.2 in A-major - Royal Music At Its Best! zevnikov 2023-08-17 | William Boyce (baptised 11 September 1711 – 7 February 1779) was an English composer and organist. Like Beethoven later on, he became deaf but continued to compose. He knew Handel, Arne, Gluck, Bach, Abel, and a very young Mozart, all of whom respected his work. As Master of the King's Musick Boyce had the responsibility of writing music for royal occasions including funerals, weddings and coronations. He, however, refused to make a new setting of Zadok the Priest for the coronation of George III and Charlotte in 1761 on the grounds that Handel's setting of the anthem was unsurpassable – as a consequence of which Handel's setting has been played at every subsequent British coronation.Boyce was largely forgotten after his death and he remains a little-performed composer today, although a number of his pieces were rediscovered in the 1930s and Constant Lambert edited and sometimes conducted his works. Lambert had already launched the early stages of the modern Boyce revival in 1928, when he published the first modern edition of the Eight Symphonies (Bartlett and Bruce 2001).

Jacobus Gallus: Pater noster - A High Renaissance Polyphony zevnikov 2023-06-09 | This is first of exceptional series in collaboration with Slovenian Philharmonics and PPZ production. Slovenian Philharmonic Choir is one of the best European professional choirs. Every year they invited most renowned choir leaders from abroad. This particular session was conducted by award-winning director Sebastjan VrhovnikJacobus Gallus (a.k.a. Jacob(us) Handl, Jacob(us) Händl, Jacob(us) Gallus; Slovene: Jakob Petelin Kranjski; between 15 April and 31 July 1550 – 18 July 1591) was a late-Renaissance composer of presumed Slovene ethnicity. Born in Carniola, which at the time was one of the Habsburg lands in the Holy Roman Empire, he lived and worked in Moravia and Bohemia during the last decade of his life. Gallus represented the Counter-Reformation in Bohemia, mixing the polyphonic style of the High Renaissance Franco-Flemish School with the style of the Venetian School. His output was both sacred and secular, and hugely prolific: over 500 works have been attributed to him. Some are for large forces, with multiple choirs of up to 24 independent parts. Tenor voice part of Gallus' Ecce quomodo moritur iustus, published in his Opus Musicum IIHis most notable work is the six-part Opus musicum, 1587, a collection of 374 motets that would eventually cover the liturgical needs of the entire ecclesiastical year. The motets were printed in Prague printing house Jiří Nigrin, which also published 16 of his 20 extant masses. The motet O magnum mysterium comes from the first volume (printed in 1586) which covers the period from the first Sunday of Advent to the Septuagesima. His motets show evidence of influence by the Venetian polychoral style, with their use of the coro spezzato technique. Pater noster : Opus musicum 69PATER noster, qui es in cœlis; sanctificetur nomen tuum: Adveniat regnum tuum; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in cœlo, et in terra.Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie:Et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris:et ne nos inducas in tentationem: sed libera nos a malo.Quia tuum est regnum, et potestas, et Gloria, in saecula. Amen.The Slovenian Philharmonic Choir was established as a professional choir in 1991. Initially known as the Slovenian Chamber Choir, it has been operating within the framework of the Slovenian Philharmonic since 1998. The choir was led by Dr Mirko Cuderman from its inception until the autumn of 2009. In the 2009/10 season, the leadership was taken over by conductors Martina Batič and Steffen Schreyer, with the latter serving as the chief conductor until the end of the 2011/12 season. In the 2012/13 season, Martina Batič took over the artistic leadership in its entirety, overseeing the choir’s activities until the end of 2017.

Hallelujah from Handels Messiah - A Superior Peformance by MEGARON Choir and Orchestra zevnikov 2023-03-02 | Messiah (HWV 56) is an English-language oratorio composed in 1741 by George Frideric Handel. The text was compiled from the King James Bible and the Coverdale Psalter by Charles Jennens. It was first performed in Dublin on 13 April 1742 and received its London premiere nearly a year later. After an initially modest public reception, the oratorio gained in popularity, eventually becoming one of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music. Megaron Choir is in my humble opinion one of the best European youth choirs. Their energy, virtuosity, and competence are beyond rational understanding. Megaron Chamber Choir was founded in October 2003 on the initiative of Damijan Močnik, composer and conductor, and united former students of the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium at St. Stanislav’s Institution in Ljubljana, who had before been active in various choral ensembles and received music education in one or more of the five choirs at the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium. As such, Megaron Chamber Choir represents the peak of the choir pyramid of St. Stanislav’s Institution. In the sixteen years since its founding, Megaron Chamber Choir has evolved into a high-quality choir performing regularly in Slovenia as well as in Austria, Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Poland, USA, and Canada, and thus earning a reputation at home as well as abroad.More: kzmegaron.com/aboutLive recording from Church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary, Koper (Capodistria)Megaron Baroque Orchestra and Megaron Choirconductor: Gary Gradenconcertmaster: Maria LindalI. violins: Maria LindalMojca JermanŽiga FaganelGilberto CerantoII: violins: Joanna DobrowolskaAjda PorentaAnja NovljanEleonora ZanneViolas: Boyana MaynalovskaAsja FrankCellos: Alja Mandič FaganelPetra GrebloDouble Base: Daniele RosiOboaStjepan NobiloGabriel GramescFagot: Paolo CalligarisTrumpets: Miha PetekKristijan ZupanTimpani: Barbara KernikOrgan: Pierpaolo Turetta Megaron Choirartistic director: Damijan MočnikSopranIva BevcKatarina BriškiPatricija GrilTadeja JelnikarLucija KovačMana KrižnarNeža Križnar RističZalka LeskovarLucija MalovrhNeža MavčičMarjeta NahtigalMarta NovakJana PoredošLucija RusLucija TomcJerca UraničAna ZajecKatja ZgojznikNika ZgojznikTenorŽan BelcaPeter BerkopecAnton Jakob BončaUrban BošticMartin DrobničMiha FerjanJakob JakličPeter KunsteljAndraž RističValentin SojarFilip SuhadolcRok ŠtefanJan TrilerLovro Zupanc KovačMiha Zupanc KovačAltAna BenedikMojca BerkopecAmber BervarBernardka ČemažarLucija FabjančičTinkara JerkičLonja KlavžarAja Koblar TutičJerica KorpnikAna LamberšekMarta LegatKarolina MarcKlavdija OkolišAna Lucija ParkeljLara PlanincAna PrekAna RističMaruša RojcMagdalena SojarLora ŠtravsKlara ŽnideršičBasAmbrož BajtAndrej Emanuel CotmanMatevž FabjančičMatija JagerMatic KotarRok KotarTomas MejiasJan NovakJakob PanceAmbrož RenerJure StareLuka ŠtiftarSimon ZgoncProduction CrewCut Production Production Lead: Gal NagodeProduction assistant and dolly operation: Dan AžmanProduction assistant: Jakob ZevnikSound design: Danilo ŽenkoLight: Gal Nagode and Sebastijan ZavrlTube rerecording: Iztok ZupanFloral: Diana Argentirecorded in Capitol Church in Koper (Capodistria) SloveniaPPZ and TAJUS with Megaron Cultural Society production: Producers: Juš Hrastnik, Damijan Močnik, Primož Zevnikbroadcast director: Primož Zevnik
Dmitri Shostakovich - Gavotte from Ballet Suite No.3 (A Beautiful Dance Music) zevnikov 2023-02-03 | Dmitri Dmitriyevich Shostakovich (25 September [O.S. 12 September] 1906 – 9 August 1975) was a Soviet-era Russian composer and pianist who became internationally known after the premiere of his First Symphony in 1926 and was regarded throughout his life as a major composer. Shostakovich combined a variety of different musical techniques in his works. His music is characterized by sharp contrasts, elements of the grotesque, and ambivalent tonality; he was also heavily influenced by neoclassicism and by the late Romanticism of Gustav Mahler. Shostakovich's reputation has continued to grow after his death. Scholarly interest has increased significantly since the late 20th century, including considerable debate about the relationship between his music and his attitudes to the Soviet government.

Hildegard of Bingen: Caritas abundant in Omnia - Love Aboundeth In All Things zevnikov 2022-12-28 | Hildegard of Bingen (German: Hildegard von Bingen; Latin: Hildegardis Bingensis; c. 1098 – 17 September 1179), also known as Saint Hildegard and the Sibyl of the Rhine, was a German Benedictine abbess and polymath active as a writer, composer, philosopher, mystic, visionary, and as a medical writer and practitioner during the High Middle Ages. She is one of the best-known composers of sacred monophony, as well as the most recorded in modern history. She has been considered by scholars to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany.Hildegard's convent elected her as Magistra (mother superior) in 1136. She founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. Hildegard wrote theological, botanical, and medicinal works, as well as letters, hymns, and antiphons for the liturgy. She wrote poems and supervised miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias. There are more surviving chants by Hildegard than by any other composer from the entire Middle Ages, and she is one of the few known composers to have written both the music and the words. One of her works, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play. She is noted for the invention of a constructed language known as Lingua Ignota.

In May 1941, a magnificent main altar with a statue of St. Jožef (made by sculptor Božidar Pengov). But this decoration only enriched the church for a short time. In 1949, the post-war authorities confiscated it, together with the two houses and all other property, in the pursuit of the Jesuits. On April 23, 1949, the two priests took the Blessed Sacrament to the cathedral. The next day, Holy Sunday, the bells no longer invited us to worship... During the visit of John Paul II. in 1996, it was returned again and now it is renewed waiting for the blessing. It housed a film studio in the post-war years. It was rebuilt and damaged, so the state restored it and returned it to its former beauty.

This Incredible Music Was Written by 11-Year-Old Boy - Loved by God zevnikov 2022-09-14 | Symphony No. 6 in F major, K. 43, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1767. According to Alfred Einstein in his 1937 revision of the Köchel catalog, the symphony was probably begun in Vienna and completed in Olomouc, a Moravian city to which the Mozart family fled to escape a Viennese smallpox epidemic. The symphony is in four movements. Its initial performance was at Brno on 30 December 1767. The autograph of the score is today preserved in the Biblioteka Jagiellońska in Kraków. The instrumentation for the first performance was: 2 flutes; 2 oboes; 2 horns; a bassoon; strings and a keyboard continuo. The flutes are used in the second movement in place of the oboes. For the first time in a symphony, Mozart uses two obligatory viola parts.Performed by Slovenian PhilharmonicsConcertmaster: Miran KolblDirector: Matej ŠarcSlovenian Philharmonics is the greatest musical institution in Slovenia.

Gorgeous Ernestina sings Schubert - Du Bist die Ruh (You Are Repose) zevnikov 2022-07-07 | Du bist die Ruh' " (You are rest and peace) D. 776; Op. 59, No. 3 is a Lied composed by Franz Schubert (1797–1828) in 1823. The text is from a set of poems by the German poet Friedrich Rückert (1788–1866). It is the third poem in a set of four. This song is set for solo voice and piano.Rückert's poem was originally untitled. Schubert used the poem's first line as the title of the song. Rückert later titled his poem "Kehr ein bei mir" (Stay with me). Franz Liszt transcribed many of Schubert's songs for piano, including "Du bist die Ruh" (S. 558/3). The melody and harmonies are all Schubert's but with the addition of Liszt's own interpretation, while still staying true to the original meaning of Rückert's poem. The piece is in triple meter (38) and is marked larghetto (fairly slow) and pianissimo (very soft). The piece is in bar form and its original key is E-flat major. It starts with both hands playing broken triads softly and slowly in treble clef. Solo sopran: Ernestina Joštpiano: Ivan PernickiThis was Ernestina's final concert for Ljubljana Academy of Music, where she graduated. She got summa cum laude grades for her singing. I hope you will enjoy this emotional performance.

Father And Daughter Last Performance Before Her Wedding - Bach: Oboe and Violin Concerto in C Minor zevnikov 2022-06-11 | This Concerto by Johann Sebastian Bach is a special one. PPZ production captured one of the best young violinists of our time Rannveig Marta Šarc accompanied by her father, a renowned oboist, and director of Slovenian Philharmonics. It was a special moment where father and daughter came together in a beautiful baroque set and played this iconic Concerto for Oboe and Violin in C Minor BWV 1060R by Johann Sebastian Bach. I uploaded this amazing video and audio clip on the day of her wedding in Iceland. It is a special gift of mine to Ranni and her father Matej.Ranni exclusive on Bach series is a first-class PPZ production event.

She enjoys an active performing career as a soloist, chamber musician, and teacher, and has performed throughout Asia, North America, and Europe. She has appeared as a soloist with orchestras such as the Iceland Symphony, Slovenian Philharmonic, and Iceland Youth Symphony. As a chamber musician, she has appeared at festivals in Ravinia, Taos, Kneisel Hall, Aspen, and Thy. She has received numerous awards, including the Nerenberg Award from The Musicians Club of Women, the American Scandinavian Society Cultural Grant, and the Rotary Club Scholarship, to name a few. Rannveig holds Bachelor's and Master of Music degrees from The Juilliard School, where she was a proud recipient of the Kovner Fellowship. Her teachers include Catherine Cho, Laurie Smukler, and Donald Weilerstein, as well as Robert Mealy on baroque violin. This Concerto for Oboe and Violin in C Minor is a reconstruction of the supposed original form of the concerto for two harpsichords in C Minor. In this version, each instrument makes full use of its own timbre and characteristics. In the finale, the violin clearly gets more scope than the oboe to show off its most virtuoso side, while in the second movement both instruments become closely entangled.Max Schneider's reconstruction as a concerto for two violins in D minor was performed in 1920 at the Leipzig Bach Festival According to Max Seiffert, it makes more sense to keep the same key as the keyboard version, that is C minor when reconstructing the concerto for violin and oboe soloists.In his preface to the 1990 second edition of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV), Wolfgang Schmieder proposed to add a capital "R" to a BWV number to indicate a reconstructed version of a composition that is only extant in a later version, hence reconstruction of a conjectured earlier version of the BWV 1060 concerto can be indicated as BWV 1060R. Schmieder used the 1060R catalog number for reconstruction in C minor, for oboe and violin soloists, in the 1990 version of the BWV.

This Is Heaven - Slavonic Dance op. 72 zevnikov 2022-05-19 | This is Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestra dedication to brave Ukrainian people who suffer under the brutal Russian invasion. Our musicians performed this beautiful Slavnonic Dance a couple of years ago. The Slavonic Dances (Czech: Slovanské tance) are a series of 16 orchestral pieces composed by Antonín Dvořák in 1878 and 1886 and published in two sets as Op. 46 and Op. 72 respectively. Originally written for piano four hands, the Slavonic Dances were inspired by Johannes Brahms's own Hungarian Dances and were orchestrated at the request of Dvořák's publisher soon after composition. The pieces, lively and full of national character, were well received at the time and today are considered among the composer's most memorable works, occasionally making appearances in popular culture.Opus 72: No. 2 (10) in E minor (Starodávný, traditional dance) Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestraconductor: Nejc BečanFLAVTE (FLUTES): Aleksandra Pleterski, Katja Stanovšek, Zarja Hude, Neža Čadež, Manca Teran, Pia Krumpestar, Katjuša Rupnik, Anja Kišek; PIKOLO (PICCOLO) Manca Rozman; OBOE: Pavli Kac Ana Stoshitzky; KLARINETI (CLARINETS): Nadja Drakslar, Uroš Gorenc, Drejc Flajnik, Domen Kos; BAS KLARINET (BASE CLARINET): Jan Šifrer; FAGOTI (BASOONS): Arpad Balazs Piri, Miha Petkovšek; ROGOVI (FRENCH HORNS): Žiga Cesar, Marko Pirc, Miha Lončar, Klever Felicio; TROBENTE: Aleš Klančar, Anžej Remšak, Marko Novak; POZAVNE: Domen Gantar, Žan Škrjanec, Filip Istenič; EVFONIJ: Nina Tajč; TUBA: Tilen Oblak; TOLKALA: Dan Ažman Pistotnik, Domen Blaznik, Vid Ušeničnik, Miha Ogris: KLAVIR (PIANO): Monika Podlogar, Rok Zupanc, Katja Jerič, Ana Maria Beguš; VIOLINE 1 (FIRST VIOLINS): Nejc Avbelj, Neža Capuder, Peter Jud, Oskar Longyka, Klavdija Jarc Bezlaj, Mojca Batič, Ajda Porenta, Dora Rakar, Tina Zajec, Neža Piry, Katarina Miklavčič, Evita Oberžan, Domen Lorenz; VIOLINE 2 (SECOND VIOLINS): Uroš Bičanin, Matija Udovič, Tjaša Gorjanc, Nina Pečar, Klara Gruden, Daniel Perez Tujillo, Laura Bartelj, Tonka Pogačnik, Eva Dukarič, Ana Marija Lazari, Vivijana Rogina; VIOLE (VIOLAS): Špela Pirnat, Neža Papler, Anuša Plesničar, Vanja Kojić, Jurij Gracej, Neža Sečnik, Hana Lavrinc, Anita Gnamuš, Urša Žun, Martin Kokošinek; VIOLONČELA (CELLOS): Urh Mrak, Arslan Hamidulin, Lucija Rupert, Alenka Piotrowicz, Katarina Kozjek, Nika Vremšak, Klara Pahor, Katarina Minatti, Ana Zupan; KONTRABASI (DOUBLE BASSES): Grega Rus, Todor Markovič, Andrej Kašič, Gašper Livk, Joana Gonzales Subira, Arthur Piotrowicz; HARFA (HARPS): Urša Rihtaršič Ajda Krišelj; SAKSOFONI (SAXOFONES): Gal Grobovšek, Urša Uršič, Manca Krivec; BAS KITARA/KITARA (BASS GUITAR / GUITAR): Luka Štibelj, Urh Zupan, Rok Klančar, Karim Zajec; HARMONIKA (ACCORDEON): Ana LombarConcert and broadcast director: Primož Zevnik

Camille Saint-Saëns: The Swan (from The Carnival of the Animals) zevnikov 2022-01-25 | Gimnazija Kranj Christmas Concert Series - Anniversary Edition Series. In this series, I am going to re-upload some of the milestones from our performing and recording productions in the last 15 years. Our lead master technician Mr Iztok Zupan remastered all of our analogue audio recordings in an amazing digital Hi-Res audio landscape. He used sophisticated rerecording processes, rubidium clock processes and some other exotic black magic for one of the most superior sounds, you can get it on youtube. This recording is particularly legendary. Our balance engineer Matjaž Culiberg from National Radio did an amazing sound design. Many of those musicians are playing now in the best world symphonic orchestras: Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, Berlin Philarmonic Orchestra, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Tonhalle Zürich, Slovenian Philharmonic Orchestra, Vienna State Opera, Frankfurt Opera, Kremerata Baltica, Bavarian State Opera and other renowned orchestras around the Globe. Our master engineer Iztok Zupan carefully inspected this beautiful audio material and did a spectacular re-recording audio miracle. Enjoy this legendary and one of the best performances on Youtube. Camille Saint-Saëns: The Swan (from The Carnival of the Animals)Gallus Hall, Slovenia, Europerecording session: December 2013Maruša Bogataj - celloMarjan Peternel - pianoMaruša and Marjan are today renowned musicians with splendid careers. Marjan is a professor and composer at Ljubljana conservatorium, Maruša is solo cellist in RTV Symphony Orchestra in Ljubljana. They were important core musicians in the legendary Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestra. The Carnival of the Animals (Le Carnaval des animaux) is a humorous musical suite of fourteen movements by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. The work, about 25 minutes in duration, was written for private performance by two pianos and chamber ensemble; Saint-Saëns prohibited public performance of the work during his lifetime, feeling that its frivolity would damage his standing as a serious composer. The suite was published in 1922, the year after his death. A public performance in the same year was greeted with enthusiasm, and the work has remained among his most popular. In addition to the original version for chamber ensemble, the suite is frequently performed with a full orchestral complement of strings. Producer and broadcast director: Primož ZevnikPPZ Production

In the other half of the song the suffering soul opens towards compassionate God which is full of love and Who sends his only Son to the Earth. Composer: Ubald VrabecLyrics: Vinko BeličičTranslated by dear friend and polyglot Tog Hoathlyrics: It was night, and the soul, it was weepingWith bitter pain as it travelled along bright paths,Ancient sin weighed upon its' wings.In its' despair, in hope, it trembled.And the God of Love, the Lord of the UniverseTook pity upon tearful mankind.Sent He the light to Bethlehem;From ages past, the turmoil resolved by His grace.Banished is silence by Heavenly harmonies,The Heaven of Angels is now openO Jesus, be our staff of life, O Jesus, be our vine,May Your mercy, forever, upon us, shine.The Ljubljana Glasbena Matica Mixed ChoirConductor: Sebastjan VrhovnikSebastjan Vrhovnik is an awarded Slovenian conductor and professor at Ljubljana Academy of Music.

Agnus Dei - 🇺🇦 A Beautiful Prayer For Our Brave Ukrainian Brothers and Sisters 🇺🇦 zevnikov 2021-09-15 | This is a Prayer, deep religious music, performed by Slovenian Philharmonic Choir. I dedicate this prayer to our suffering Ukrainian people under the brutal claws of the primitive and deadly attack. We all pray for you dear people of Ukraina, the heart of Eastern Europe. Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) is a choral composition in one movement by Samuel Barber, his own arrangement of his Adagio for Strings (1936). In 1967, he set the Latin words of the liturgical Agnus Dei, a part of the Mass, for mixed chorus with optional organ or piano accompaniment. The music, in B-flat minor, has a duration of about eight minutes.Barber's Adagio for Strings began as the second movement of his String Quartet, Op. 11, composed in 1936. At the request of Arturo Toscanini, he arranged it for string orchestra, and in January 1938 sent that version to the conductor, who premiered it in New York with the NBC Symphony Orchestra. In setting it to the liturgical Agnus Dei, a part of the Mass, Barber changed the music only a little. As with the other arrangements of Adagio for Strings, it was published by G. Schirmer.Performed by The Slovenian Philharmonic Choirconductor: Jerica BukovecThe Slovenian Philharmonic Choir was established as a professional choir in 1991. Initially known as the Slovenian Chamber Choir, it has been operating within the framework of the Slovenian Philharmonic since 1998. The choir's artistic director is Gregor Klančič. https://www.filharmonija.si/en/Recording set:Jože Plečnik's unconventional design for the Church of St. Francis (Cerkev sv. Frančiška), constructed between 1925 and 1927, is derived from his plans for the Church of the Sacred Heart in Prague, built-in 1922. The central part of the church is covered with a gently sloping roof topped with a belfry added in 1931. The belfry has a distinctive shape dominated by two rows of pillars in its upper two storeys and a conic roof sloping up steeply.The main entrance is enhanced by a monumental colonnade with an open tympanum. The inside of the church is unusual. Its central space is framed by a row of monumental brick columns, on the outer side of which, next to the walls, there is enough space to walk all the way around the central part of the church. The main altar is positioned right next to the colonnade, at a distance from the church wall behind it. It is flanked by side altars, which are also positioned next to the rows of columns.Later, when the church was already in use, Plečnik occasionally added new elements to it. He furnished it with chandeliers and, after World War II, decorated the church's Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrow, baptistery and sacristy.Production: TAJUS and PPZ productionasistenti: Dan Ažman, Gal Nagode, Jakob Zevniklight design: Gal Nagodecrane operator: Matej Zagorcdolly grip: Gal Nagodeproduction lead and director of photography: Juš Hrastniksound: Kloptec produkcijabalance engineer: Iztok Zupan mastering: Iztok Zupanscript: Primož Zevnik assistant director and executive producer : Juš Hrastnikeditor and director: Primož Zevnikrecorded in st.

Ernestina sings Morgen by Richard Strauss zevnikov 2021-07-17 | Morgen!" ("Tomorrow!") is the last in a set of four songs composed in 1894 by the German composer Richard Strauss. It is designated Opus 27, Number 4. The text of this Lied, the German love poem "Morgen!", was written by Strauss's contemporary, John Henry Mackay, who was of partly Scottish descent but brought up in Germany."Morgen!" remains one of Strauss's best-known and most widely recorded works. Strauss himself recorded it in 1919 accompanying the tenor Robert Hutt on the piano,[1] and again in 1941 conducting the orchestral version with tenor Julius Patzak and the Bavarian State Orchestra. His last recording of it was 11 June 1947, a live broadcast on radio with Strauss conducting the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana and soprano Annette Brun.Solo sopran: Ernestina Joštpiano: Ivan PernickiThis was Ernestina final concert for Ljubljana Academy of Music, where she graduated. She got suma cum laude grades for her singing. I hope you will enjoy this emotional performance.

Kaiserwaltzer / Emperor Waltz (arr. Schoenberg) - Splendid members of Slovenian Philharmonics zevnikov 2021-06-19 | Kaiser-Walzer, Op. 437 (Emperor Waltz) is a waltz composed by Johann Strauss II in 1889. The waltz was originally titled Hand in Hand and was intended as a toast made in August of that year by Emperor of Austria Franz Joseph I on the occasion of his visit to the German Emperor Wilhelm II where it was symbolic as a 'toast of friendship' extended by Austria-Hungary to the German Empire.Strauss' publisher, Fritz Simrock, suggested the title Kaiser-Walzer since the title could allude to either monarch and thus satisfy the vanity of both rulers. The waltz was first performed in Berlin on 21 October 1889. The original cover of the piano edition bore the illustration of the Austrian Imperial Crown.Arnold Schoenberg or Schönberg ; (13 September 1874 – 13 July 1951) was an Austrian-born composer, music theorist, teacher, writer, and painter. He is widely considered one of the most influential composers of the 20th century. He was associated with the expressionist movement in German poetry and art, and leader of the Second Viennese School. As a Jewish composer, Schoenberg was targeted by the Nazi Party, which labelled his works as degenerate music and forbade them from being published.] He emigrated to the United States in 1933, becoming an American citizen in 1941.Schoenberg's approach, bοth in terms of harmony and development, has shaped much of 20th-century musical thought. Many European and American composers from at least three generations have consciously extended his thinking, whereas others have passionately reacted against it.Slovenian Philharmonicsdirector: Matej ŠarcMatej Grahek, fluteMassimiliano Miani, clarinetŽiga Faganel in Irina Kevorkova, violinsSam Burstin, violaAlja Mandič Faganel, celloIvan Ferčič, pianoTomaž Sevšek Šramel, harmoniumPRODUCTION CREWproduction lead: Gal Nagodesound designDanilo Ženkofloral and setIvo Uršičlight designJanez KocjankamermaniTadej PernušAndraž ŽigartGal NagodeKamermani Produkcije TAJUSkran operatorMatej Zagorcdolly gripDan Ažmanassistant technician and digital storageJakob Zevnikfloor managerDan Ažmanproducer: Juš Hrastnik (TAJUS)director: Primož Zevnik (PPZ production)
