Tatiana Roitman (Piano) & Jeffrey Zehngut (Violin) performing Mozart on March 28th, 2013 at the University of Central Arkansas. 

Pianist Tatiana Roitman has appeared as a soloist and recitalist across North America and Europe. The BBC hailed her performance of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue as “formidable…both accurate and with rarely seen joy.” Her recording of the original, big band version of the work was released by Naxos Records in the album Jazz Nocturne - American Concertos of the Jazz Age. Roitman’s radio broadcasts include H.Villa-Lobos’ Mystic Sextet on NPR’s Performance Today, and B.Bartok’s Contrasts on New York’s classical music station, WQXR.

Jeffrey Zehngut joined the second violin section of The Cleveland Orchestra in August 2011. Mr. Zehngut previously served as associate principal second violin of the San Diego Symphony 2005-11 and as principal second of the Canton Symphony Orchestra 2002-05. He holds degrees from the Cleveland Institute of Music, where he studied with William Preucil and Paul Kantor.

From UCA student newspaper, The Echo:

The College of Fine Arts and Communication and the music department sponsored performances by Jeffery Zehngut and Tatiana Roitman Mann. Zehngut and Mann performed at 7:30 p.m. March 28 at the Snow Fine Arts Recital Hall. Zehngut, violinist, and Roitman Mann, pianist, performed pieces for their audience. Presenting themselves on stage in all-black attire, a large black piano and a brown violin, Zehngut and Mann lit up the room with their distinctive sounds.

After the duo took the audience to different heights with the many pitches and paces of their instruments, they would leave the stage, gathering applause, and would return shortly to perform their next pieces. Their performances featured pieces by Dmitri Shostakovich, Johannes Brahms, W. A. Mozart, and Sergie Prokofiev. Sophomore Kendle Carter said she enjoyed the performance. “The violinist and pianist were very good at juxtaposing between slow and fast, playful and serious, melancholy and happy rhythms,” she said. “It created an exciting and beautiful work of art. I really enjoyed it because it kept me eager for their next pieces.”

The show’s program states that Tatiana’s interpretations of solo, concerto and chamber repertoire are characterized by their warmth and emotional intensity. Sophomore Nathaniel Trent said he was impressed by the act. “The performance went well,” he said. “Using not only the piano, but also the violin, they were able to portray happy and sad sounds. In every piece, I could relate a background story to go with it. Both instruments were able to come together to form a beautiful sound. I enjoyed it.”

The program provided background coverage on the two musicians. Zehngut, for the past few years, has gone on tour throughout the United States and Europe. He performs regularly as a soloist and as a chamber musician. He has positions with the Orchestra Nova and California Chamber Orchestras. Tatiana Roitman Mann has traveled across North America and Europe. She is currently an Artist-in-Residence at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.

The crowd stood in ovation as the two musicians bowed after their performance, showing its appreciation.

• Frank Peter Zimmermann - one of the best Violinists of his time.
• Zimmermann’s triumphant return to Mozart's concertos since his legendary EMI-recordings from over 30 years ago. 
• The first of three installments which will contain, when completed, all of Mozart’s works for concertante violin. 

Today, when Frank Peter Zimmermann says that Mozart has always been easy for him, he needs only call to mind his debut concert at the age of ten – when he played Mozart's G major Concerto K. 216; or when, some 30 years ago, as a fresh 20-year-old, the same FPZ  made his first recording of the five concertos for EMI; and then if one factors in that over the years that each of these Mozart works has passed through his hands nearly 300 times in concert, then one can begin to appreciate the intense physical and spiritual experience that Frank Peter Zimmermann brings to these new recordings.

One will immediately hear on this CD the experience that a master can bring to these works, because no one else plays these works with the same incredible, almost balletic, weightless elegance and rich tone, reaching a degree of intimacy, without any obstacle between the performer and the listener, as does Frank Peter Zimmermann.  Mozart’s every wish is perfectly fulfilled! The Chamber Orchestra of the Symphony Orchestra of the Bavarian broadcasting company serves both masters admirably.

Frank Peter Zimmermann‘s Mozart edition will be released on 3 CDs; the second CD will be released in February, 2016 and will include the Sinfonia concertante (with Antoine Tamestit), the Violin Concerto No. 2 D Major K. 211, the Rondo in B-flat Major KV 269 as well as the Haffner Serenade K. 250 in which the violin plays a big role. The third CD is planned for February, 2017 and will contain the Concertone for two violins, the Violin Concerto No. 5 and the Kassation K. 63.

The String Quartet No. 16 in E flat major, K. 428/421b, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This is the third of the Haydn Quartets, a set of six string quartets he wrote during his first few years in Vienna and later dedicated to Joseph Haydn.

It is in four movements:

I. Allegro non troppo
II. Andante con moto
III. Menuetto & Trio
IV. Allegro vivace

The first movement is highly chromatic, with the chromaticized bridge theme in the exposition being one of several examples, the end of the exposition being another.

The slow movement "invokes ... the slow movement of Haydn's Op. 20 No. 1. The ostentatious dissonances of its opening almost have an antique flavour, caused by the collision of semitonal ascents and descents, and this strongly suggests the opening subject of the first movement, so surprisingly isolated there." Other commentators hear it as pointing forward to Johannes Brahms.

Throughout the third movement Mozart "makes use of a pedal point in the bass, thus giving the music an entrancing rustic effect." The last movement "can best be described as being an abridged rondo form."

Quartet No. 16 in E-Flat Major, K. 428: III. Menuetto, Allegretto

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's String Quartet No. 15 in D minor, K. 421/417b is the second of the Quartets dedicated to Haydn and the only one of the set in a minor key. 

Though undated in the autograph, it is believed to have been completed in 1783, while his wife Constanze Mozart was in labour with her first child Raimund. Constanze stated that the rising string figures in the second movement corresponded to her cries from the other room. 

It is in four movements:

Allegro moderato
Andante (F major)
Menuetto and Trio (the latter in D major). Allegretto
Allegretto ma non troppo

The first movement is characterized by a sharp contrast between the aperiodicity of the first subject group, characterized by Arnold Schoenberg as "prose-like," and the "wholly periodic" second subject group. In the Andante and the Minuet, "normal expectations of phraseology are confounded."

The main part of the Minuet is in minuet sonata form,[ while "the contrasting major-mode Trio ... is ... almost embarrassingly lightweight on its own ... [but] makes a wonderful foil to the darker character of the Minuet."The last movement is a set of variations.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart completed his Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, on 10 August 1788.[1] It was the last symphony that he composed, and also the longest.

The work is nicknamed the Jupiter Symphony. This name stems not from Mozart but rather was likely coined by the impresario Johann Peter Salomon in an early arrangement for piano.

The four movements are arranged in the traditional symphonic form of the Classical era:

Allegro vivace, 4/4
Andante cantabile, 3/4 in F major
Menuetto: Allegretto - Trio, 3/4
Molto allegro, 2/2

The symphony typically has a duration of about 33 minutes.
The sonata form first movement's main theme begins with contrasting motifs: a threefold tutti outburst on the fundamental tone (respectively, by an ascending motion leading in a triplet from the dominant tone underneath to the fundamental one), followed by a more lyrical response.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - 1756–1791
is unarguably one of the most prolific and notable classical composers of all time. A child prodigy, Mozart was already proficient on the keyboard and violin by the age of five, composing remarkable works and performing before European royalty. At just 17 years old, he was engaged as a musician at the Salzburg court but, driven by ambition and a restless spirit, he embarked on travels to seek better opportunities.

In 1781, while visiting Vienna, Mozart’s dismissal from his Salzburg post marked a turning point in his life. He chose to remain in the imperial capital, where he gained widespread fame but struggled to achieve lasting financial stability. It was during his final years in Vienna that Mozart created many of his most celebrated works, including symphonies, concertos, operas, and the unfinished Requiem.

Over the course of his short but extraordinary life, Mozart composed more than 600 works, spanning symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral genres. These masterpieces are recognized as pinnacles of Western art music and continue to inspire audiences and musicians alike. His enduring influence on classical music is profound, solidifying his legacy as one of history’s greatest composers.
