DARRAGH MORGAN presents BBC Radio 3 Inside Music
Sat 4 Jun 2022, 13:00 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0017ttz Violinist of the FIDELIO TRIO, Darragh Morgan with music that stops you in your tracks Violinist Darragh Morgan shares recordings made by his mentors, Detlef Hahn and Paul Zukofsky, which feature perfect demonstrations of intriguing violin bow techniques. He also delves into his vinyl collection to share some music from Mali and explores music whose irregular rhythms enchant the listener, including pieces by Kevin Volans and Steven Reich. Plus, a heartfelt elegy which manages to express comfort and hurt simultaneously. A Tandem Production for BBC Radio 3 
Andrew Zolinsky will perform an hour-long programme featuring works by Valentin Silvestrov (Ukraine), Tigran Mansurian (Armenia) and Laurence Crane (UK). The concert presents three living composers, outlining connections between the music formed in the Ukranian and Armenian avant-garde of the ‘70s, and the British experimentalism of the ‘80s and ‘90s – each attempting to establish new grounds in the melodic, the tonal, the lyrical and the familiar.

at SAMUEL BECKETT : IN CONFINEMENT The Institute of Irish Studies, University of Liverpool 6 & 7 May 2022 Beckett Confined: Ghost Trio by Samuel Beckett Fri, 6 May 2022, 20:00 Samuel Beckett's play Ghost Trio performed by Anna Nygh and Frank McCusker with music by the Fidelio Trio. Ghost Trio is a television play written by Beckett in 1975, its three 'acts' reflect Beethoven's Fifth Piano Trio, known as The Ghostbecause of the slightly spooky mood of the second movement, Largo. The passages selected by Beckett are from the "ghostly" second theme. In addition the Fidelio Trio will be performing pieces by Schubert, another of Beckett's favourite composers. BOOK : https://www.eventbrite.com/e/beckett-confined-ghost-trio Samuel Beckett's radio play "Words and Music", with music composed by Morton Feldman. Sat, 7 May 2022 performed by the FIDELIO TRIO and friends, directed by Darragh Morgan In 1961 Samuel Beckett wrote Words and Music for BBC radio, a play featuring the two characters “Words” and “Music” (also referred to as Joe and Bob). The work was withdrawn following the première due to Beckett’s dissatisfaction. 20 years later, Beckett suggested that Morton Feldman should compose the music, resulting in the first complete performance in 1987 (the year of Feldman’s death), produced for the American Beckett Festival of Radio Plays. In Feldman’s words: ‘It was a huge amount of fun to do something for Beckett, a sort of tribute to him, i.e. someone who has been part of my life since the ‘50’s … it was to some extent a labour of love, which I happily undertook.’ BOOK : https://www.eventbrite.com/e/beckett-confined-words-and-music May 2022

VINCENT LARDERET
LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 What a great recording! In retrospect, the fact that I raised it to the same level as the recordings by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli and Krystian Zimmerman still bothered me a bit. Reached too high? By no means! ... Vincent Larderet finds all of this to be a master of rhetorically charged art and, not least, the ideal Liszt interpreter. He not only has absolute control over his instrument and all parameters of piano playing, but also a mental, or rather poetic-philosophical, penetration of the works and their content that I have never encountered in this form with Liszt. ... Between virtuosity and spirituality, between asceticism and pathos, an inner tremor that is tense and just controllable pervades his game; and that's why his Liszt recording is deeply personal for me, so incomparable and simply recommendable.” Klassik Heute http://www.klassik-heute.de Vincent Larderet
“Larderet, quite justifiably, once again throws off the artificial shackles of the 'anti-impressionist' and gives free rein to his strongest sides - the ability to 'paint music', playing with timbres, contrasts of dynamic nuances, the deep and full-blooded sound of the instrument.[…]
This is not a piano, not an organ, or even an orchestra, but a chorus of human voices. It seems that such a 'special effect' could only be achieved with a very personal experience. And again, one has to wonder where a young man like Larderet has a life experience that allows him to penetrate into such abysses?"

VANESSA BENELLI MOSELL
NEW YORK TIMES Luckily, there is a sterling recent recording of “Klavierstück XII,” on Decca, by Vanessa Benelli Mosell, who worked with the composer before his death in 2007. From the first minute, she treats some quickly rising and falling motifs with an interpretive feeling that’s more romantic than you hear from other players in this repertoire. Yet it’s all in keeping with the surging thematic playfulness of “Licht”-era Stockhausen, a quality which might shock anyone who thinks of him only in terms of early works like “Kontra-Punkte.” SETH COLTER WALLS Oct 2019
