LUDWIGVANA Beethoven Festival

LUDWIGVANA Beethoven FestivalCelebrating the music and legacy of Beethoven,Ludwig van is about transformation. With Europeon the brink of revolution, and the ideals of theEnlightenment giving way to a new Romantic spirit,Ludwig van Beethoven transformed Western classicalmusic forever. From his earliest musical experiments tohis final, ground-breaking artistic statements, you canhear the changing times in these sounds; and manyof these scores are transformed through transcriptionand arrangement, by Beethoven himself, by hiscontemporaries and those that followed him.With over 100 events spanning eight months, Ludwigvan is one of the largest Beethoven festivals the UKhas seen in many years. Featuring not one, but twosymphony cycles, and performances of the completestring quartets, piano trios, violin, cello and pianosonatas, the festival also looks at how Beethoven’smusic has influenced art, literature, dance, jazz,comedy and film, and how modern-day composershave responded to the man and his music.Nine Symphony Days will look at these hallowedscores with fresh eyes from all sides. Presented inorder of composition, each Day is based around aperformance of the symphony, a second concert oftranscriptions of the same symphony from piano duetto string quartet to wind ensemble, and illuminatedby talks by leading Beethoven experts from the UKand the US, as well as other events that explore linkswith other art forms. Ten different orchestras will beinvolved, working with conductors including Jac vanSteen, Ivor Bolton, Nicholas Kraemer and DouglasBoyd.Within this series sits a recreation of the famous‘Akademie’ of 22 December 1808, a 4½ hourmarathon concert within which both the fifth andsixth symphonies and the fourth piano concertowere unveiled for the first time, and presented herein collaboration with the University of ManchesterSymphony Orchestra.Three special weekends are dedicated to Beethoven’schamber music, string and piano repertoire. TheRNCM Chamber Music Festival rings in the New Yearby focusing on the complete string quartets, pianotrios and other chamber music, with performances byartists and ensembles that include the Talich Quartet,the Gould Piano Trio and the Endellion Quartet.Later in 2013, the RNCM Strings Weekend presentsthe complete violin and cello sonatas alongsidesupporting masterclasses and lectures, and in theSummer the RNCM Keyboard Weekend undertakesa complete cycle of the 35 piano sonatas, headlinedby François-Frédéric Guy, alongside performances byRNCM alumni Martin Roscoe, Peter Donohoe, Jin Ju,Ronan O’Hora and Graham Scott.We also look at how Beethoven’s music has beenreinvented in 21st Century Beethoven, a festivalwithin-a-festival featuring performances by the BBCPhilharmonic at Mediacity and the RNCM NewEnsemble, a screening of Kagel’s ‘Ludwig van’ film,a live theatrical reinvention inspired by this, not tomention a Beethoven comedy set.One of the highlights of the RNCM’s 40th anniversarycelebrations, Ludwig van places the composer at thecentre of our musical world, allowing us to reflect onBeethoven’s transformed times from the 21st century.Toby SmithDirector of Performance and Programming

Friday 11 - Sunday 13 JanuaryHIGHLIGHTSRNCM CHAMBER MUSICFESTIVALFriday 11 JanuaryBeethoven transformed chamber music in the 19thcentury, both through the extraordinary advances inhis music for the genre and, consequently, through theestablishment of chamber music in the Concert Hall.Beethoven’s personal development as a composeris nowhere more apparent than in his writing forstring quartet, and over this weekend you can hearall 15, with guest performances from the Endellion,Henschel and Talich Quartets. A similar developmentcan be traced in Beethoven’s complete piano trios,with concerts featuring the Gould, the Sitkovetskyand Cropper/Prause/Young Trios. A programme oflectures and open workshops, alongside chambermusic for winds and mixed ensembles and a numberof Beethoven’s arrangements of his own works,complete this total immersion into the world ofBeethoven’s chamber music.Ludwig van Beethoven Piano Trio in C minorOp 1 No 3; Piano Trio in B flat major Op 97‘Archduke’Full details can be found atwww.rncm.ac.uk/chambermusicfestival2pm RNCM Concert HallSitkovetsky Piano TrioTickets 127.30pm RNCM Concert HallHenschel QuartetLudwig van Beethoven String Quartet in F majorOp 59 No 1; String Quartet in A minor Op 132Tickets 17Saturday 12 January2pm RNCM Concert HallGould Piano TrioLudwig van Beethoven Piano Trio in G majorOp 1 No 2; Piano Trio in E flat major Op 70 No 2Tickets 127.30pm RNCM Concert HallTalich QuartetLudwig van Beethoven String Quartet in E minorOp 59 No 2; String Quartet in B flat major Op 130;Große Fuge in B flat major Op 133Tickets 17Sunday 13 January2pm RNCM Concert HallCropper/Prause/Young TrioLudwig van Beethoven Piano Trio in E flat majorOp 1 No 1; Piano Trio in D major Op 70 No 1‘Ghost’Tickets 127.30pm RNCM Concert HallEndellion QuartetLudwig van Beethoven String Quartet in F majorOp 135; String Quartet in C major Op 59 No 3;String Quartet in C sharp minor Op 131Tickets 17For details of festival and day tickets, please contact the Box Office

Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 JuneHIGHLIGHTSRNCM KEYBOARDWEEKENDSaturday 22 JuneAlongside the symphonies and the string quartets,Beethoven’s piano sonatas have an equally crucialstory to tell. More than any other composer,Beethoven plays a key role in developing the conceptof the piano sonata, adopting the characteristicsof the genre as laid out by Mozart and Haydn,yet pushing their boundaries with the imposition ofhis visionary ideas around thematic and harmonicdevelopment. Such transformations will be laid barefor all to hear in an intensive weekend of talks andperformances built around a cycle of the 35 pianosonatas, featuring RNCM students and alumni fromthe full 40 years of the College’s history, as well as aheadline recital from the acclaimed François-FrédéricGuy.Full details will be available atwww.rncm.ac.uk/keyboardweekendfrom March 20137.30pm RNCM Concert HallFrançois-Frédéric GuyLudwig van Beethoven Piano Sonata No 15in D major Op 28 ‘Pastoral’; Piano Sonata No 14in C sharp minor Op 27 No 2 ‘Moonlight’;Piano Sonata No 29 in B flat major Op 106‘Hammerklavier’Tickets 17 14Sunday 23 June7.30pm RNCM Concert HallPeter Donohoe, Jin Ju,Ronan O’Hora, Martin Roscoe,Graham ScottLudwig van Beethoven Piano Sonata No 8in C minor Op 13 ‘Pathétique’; Piano Sonata No 21in C major Op 53 ‘Waldstein’; Piano Sonata No 23in F minor Op 57 ‘Appassionata’; Piano SonataNo 30 in E major Op 109; Piano Sonata No 32in C minor Op 111Tickets 17 14For details of festival and day tickets, please contact the Box Office

Monday 24 – Thursday 27 JuneHIGHLIGHTS21ST CENTURYBEETHOVENMonday 24 JuneWhilst happily acknowledging his musical legacy,many composers have shied away from theman and his music as the stimulus for new workcommenting on old. Yet, many have risen to the samechallenge, creating companion pieces, inventing andrearranging, imagining what might have been, andeven setting Beethoven’s everyday correspondence tomusic. Mauricio Kagel’s ‘Ludwig van’, the 1970 filmthat gives this festival its name, bookends this 21stCentury Beethoven programme, on screen to openit and in the theatre to close it. Between, the BBCPhilharmonic, the RNCM New Ensemble and a rangeof chamber groups will get to grips with a dizzyingrange of Beethoven-inspired scores, from a setting ofhis famous ‘Heiligenstadt testament’ to P D Q Bach’sirreverent commentary on the Fifth Symphony.Full details will be available atwww.rncm.ac.uk/21stcenturybeethovenfrom March 20138pm RNCM Studio TheatreMauricio Kagel’s Ludwig vanMade in 1970, Beethoven’s bicentenary year, Kagel’sfilm interrogates how the composer’s music hasbeen both used and abused through a montage ofsequences that are provocative, funny, exasperatingand thought-provoking by turn.Free admission, by ticket onlyTuesday 25 June7.30pm RNCM Concert HallRNCM New Ensemblewith Rainer HerschP D Q Bach New Horizons in Music Appreciation:Beethoven’s Fifth SymphonyLudwig van Beethoven (arr Gorb) Große FugeOp 133 for saxophone orchestraBrett Dean Pastoral Symphonyplus comedy from Rainer HerschMark Heron conductorFree admission, by ticket onlyWednesday 26 June7.30pm BBC Philharmonic Studio, MediaCityUKBBC Philharmonic OrchestraJohn Corigliano Fantasia on an OstinatoColin Matthews Grand BarcarolleBrett Dean TestamentStephen McNeff HeiligenstadtClark Rundell conductorFree admission, by ticket only, to reserve your tickets callRNCM Box Office (limited Thursday 27 June4 - 10pm RNCM Studio TheatreLudwig van LiveRNCM students join forces with students studyingat MMU Manchester School for Art to create aninstallation inspired by Kagel’s film (see above),revisiting its ideas to create an immersive experiencethat is part-film, part-theatre and part-performance.Free admission, no ticket required
