Robert Schumann: „Szenen aus Goethes Faust“ / 
„Scenes from Goethe’s Faust“

Christian Gerhaher, Christiane Karg et al.

The work is not an opera, nor is it an oratorio, a cantata or a choral symphony. Indeed, Robert Schumann's "Scenes from Goethe's Faust" is very hard to categorize. The professional world has recently re-appraised the "Faust Scenes" as one of Schumann's major works, and this BR-KLASSIK recording reflects today's increased interest in a piece considered by the composer himself to be among his best. At the helm of the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks is the outstanding English conductor Daniel Harding, and with the "Faust Scenes" he presents a large-scale masterpiece that traces Goethe's complex and highly philosophical literary work in a loose sequence of musical scenes. In the last decade of his life in particular, Schumann repeatedly fathomed the possibilities of music-dramatic and vocal-symphonic composition. In his "Genoveva", "Manfred," "Requiem for Mignon" and also the "Faust Scenes" he goes beyond the opera, oratorio and cantata and treads entirely new musical ground. The development process for the work lasted over a decade, and Schumann only finally completed it in 1853 shortly before the sudden deterioration in his health. With its lyrical and dramatic movements, Schumann's creation spans the story from Gretchen to Faust's death, and on to the mysterious transfiguration and redemption of the final Chorus mysticus. The part of Faust is sung by outstanding baritone Christian Gerhaher. He is joined by Christiane Karg as Gretchen and other internationally renowned soloists, together with the Chamber Choir of Augsburg Cathedral Boys' Choir and the Bavarian Radio Choir.

The word Viridian is defined as a chrome green pigment that is a hydrated oxide of chromium.  Originally written for the sax/harp duo Pictures on Silence, Viridian Soliloquy is the third piece in my series of duets for one melodic instrument and one harmonic instrument.  Each soliloquy is titled after a color – the first being cerulean (for flute and piano) and the second being obsidian (for cimbalom and theorbo).  As a composer, I experience the phenomenon of synesthesia.  This is where I see colors associated with sounds and vice versa.  I was inspired to choose viridian for this piece because of the sometimes shiny green hue that reflects off of the body of the saxophone and the “green” timbre of the instrument.  The spirit of the piece is short, fast and furious and incorporates influences from rock, jazz, heavy metal and early music.

After two earlier Dvořák releases, the Trios nos.3 and 4 (Dumky) and the two Piano Quartets, Omri Epstein, Mathieu van Bellen and Ori Epstein are joined by one of their teachers at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel, the violist Miguel da Silva (founder member of the famous Quatuor Ysaÿe) and the violinist Maria Milstein, who was also an artist in residence at the Music Chapel from 2011 to 2014. Together they continue this recording of the Czech composer’s complete chamber music with keyboard, this time in the two Piano Quintets and the Bagatelles. There is an obvious close rapport between these musicians, who share with us their passion for this repertory and their enjoyment of playing together. A gap of fifteen years separates Dvořák’s two Piano Quintets, which have few features in common except a shared home key: the First marks the debut of a youthful composer, while the Second shows him at the peak of his art. The Bagatelles, originally scored for two violins, cello and harmonium, are among his bestknown short pieces. A recording scheduled for release in autumn 2018 will complete this quadriptych of Dvořák’s piano trios, quartets and quintets.

Anthony Joseph Lanman is an active and passionate musician that divides his time between composing, performing, teaching and advocacy for new classical music.

As a composer, Anthony creates music that reaches general audiences as well as new music connoisseurs. Embracing influences that range from progressive rock and metal, to medieval and renaissance music, to jazz, to new classical, Anthony strives to create a sound that is his own. He has written for ensembles and soloists around the world.

Recent commissions include – E.G.S./A.J.L. for guitarist Matthew Cochran, Hear Us! for children’s choir and string ensemble commissioned by Otter Creek Middle School, Automaton – a concerto for 8-string electric guitar and percussion for Clocks In Motion, The Rag and Bone Shop – a song cycle for baritone and piano trio for Brian Lewis and David Small commissioned by the University of Texas Butler School of Music, Rush – a quartet commissioned by the Music Teacher’s National Association and the Indiana Music Teacher’s Association, Hommages for Piano, Book 2, for Holly Roadfeldt, and Damselfly – a duo for 8-string electric guitar and percussion for Kyle Lutes.

Anthony’s performing career began in high school while singing and playing electric guitar with his touring progressive band Canvas. His principle instrument changed to classical guitar during his undergraduate years at University of Texas at Austin where he studied with Adam Holzman. Through his graduate study at Indiana University he added renaissance lute and theorbo to his instrumental arsenal, studying with Nigel North. He has performed with the University of Texas New Music Ensemble, the University of Texas Early Music Ensemble, the Indiana University New Music Ensemble, the Indiana State University Wind Ensemble, and Clocks in Motion. He has also performed many concerts of solo and chamber music.

Anthony’s advocacy is life-long. In the nineties, he hosted a contemporary classical music radio show on KVRX in Austin, Texas. In the 21st century, he promoted fellow Indiana University composers through a web presence on Mp3.com (now defunct); created Guitar Heroes, a weekly presentation series in Second Life; and produced more than 100 episodes of his ongoing music-centric podcasts All the Cool Parts and the 1,000 Recordings Podcast. He has appeared as a guest on Soundnotion, Composer Quest, Classical Guitar Insider, Goes 2 Eleven, and The Portfolio Composer.  His new podcast 1 Track focuses on the music of the contemporary classical world.  In addition, he has exposed thousands of new listeners to contemporary classical composers by sharing this music to his more than 400,000 followers on Soundcloud.

Anthony has held several positions at multiple universities and colleges, as well as K-12 public schools. In 2016, he held an adjunct position at Butler University in addition to teaching choir and music at West Vigo Middle School. He holds a BM in composition from the University of Texas, and an MM and DM in composition from Indiana University.

Anthony currently resides in Bloomington, IN with his wife Jenna and their cats Silas and Bod.
