Lyrics: Giannis Theodorakis
Composer: Mikis Theodorakis

Νύχτα μαγικιά μια σκιά περνά
σκέψου τώρα τη φωνή
που σου ’λεγε, ποτέ, ποτέ μαζί

Βάδιζα σκυφτός, ήσουν ουρανός
με των άστρων τη μουσική
μου τραγουδάς, ποτέ, ποτέ μαζί

Μάγισσα χλωμή, το στερνό σου φιλί
ξεχασμένη μουσική
μια μαχαιριά, ποτέ, ποτέ μαζί.
-
Una magica notte trascorre come un'ombra
devi pensare ora ad una voce
che ti diceva: mai, mai insieme.

Procedevo piegato, tu eri un cielo
pieno di musica di stelle
e mi cantavi: mai, mai insieme.

Pallida strega, fu il tuo estremo bacio 
una musica dimenticata
un tiro di coltello: mai, mai insieme.
-
Bewitched Night a shade passes 
think now the voice 
that has saying to you ,never, never together 

I walked bowed, you were sky 
with the music of stars 
you're singing to me , never, never together 

Pale witch , your breastbone kiss 
forgotten music 
one stab, never, never together.
-
Nuit magique, une ombre passe 
pense maintenant à la voix 
qui te disait, plus jamais, plus jamais ensemble 

Je marchais courbé, tu étais le ciel 
avec la musique des astres 
tu me chantes, plus jamais, plus jamais ensemble 

Pâle sorcière, ton dernier baiser 
musique oubliée 
un coup de couteau, plus jamais, plus jamais ensemble
-
Magische nacht, een schaduw passeert
denk nu aan de stem
die je zei, nooit, nooit samen

Gebogen stapte ik, je was de hemel
met de muziek van de sterren
je zingt voor mij, nooit, nooit samen

Bleke tovenares, je laatste kus
vergeten muziek
een messteek, nooit, nooit samen.
-
En la noche, mágicamente pasa una sombre
Pienso ahora en la voz
Que te dijo nunca más, nunca más juntos

Caminaba encorvado, eras el cielo
Con música de las estrellas
Me cantabas nunca más, nunca más juntos

Pálida hechicera, tu último beso
Música olvidada
Una cuchillada, nunca más, nunca más juntos
-
Zauberhafte Nacht, ein Schatten zieht vorbei
denk jetzt an die Stimme
die dir gesagt hat, nie mehr, nie mehr zusammen

Ich war dir ergeben, du warst der Himmel
mit der Musik der Sterne
singst du mir, nie mehr, nie mehr zusammen

Bleiche Zauberin, dein letzter Kuss
die Musik vergessen
eine Messerstich, nie mehr, nie mehr zusammen.
-
Magiczna noc, przechodzi zjawa.
Pomyśl teraz o głosie,
który mówił ci nigdy, nigdy razem.

Chadzałem schylony, byłaś niebem.
Przy muzyce gwiazd
nucisz mi nigdy, nigdy razem.

Blada czarodziejka, twój ostatni pocałunek,
zapomniana muzyka,
pchnięcie nożem, nigdy, nigdy razem.

PIE JESU In memoriam Laura Searle 

Hofmeyr wrote this setting of the words “Dear Lord Jesus, grant them rest”  from the Requiem mass on the day his beloved piano teacher and mentor, Laura Searle, passed away. It was first performed at her funeral.


'Pie Jesu' performed by Pro Arte Singers (USA) conducted by Arthur Sjogren

A collaboration with guitarist Giovanni Piacentini, this EP was recorded during the Covid-19 pandemic with both of us playing/recording our parts in separate states across the country. The title work, written by Piacentini refers, in a metaphorical way, to a kind of hallucination where we wander through a magical space with an epicurean abandon simply rejoicing in pleasure and instant euphoria, free and without any kind of remorse or sense of guilt. Also features an version of my own composition Resonance, arranged for violin and guitar, and Rachmaninoff’s Vocalise.

Sonata 46 for violin and classical guitar

Sandra Haniszewska - Violin
Tomasz Kandulski - Classical Guitar

I was attending music school as an undergraduate in 1998 at the University of Texas at Austin. At the time, Matthew Gould (of Duo 46) was attending as a Doctoral student in guitar and living in Austin with his partner, violinist Beth Schneider. They had started Duo 46 maybe a few years before this. I was hanging out with them a lot in those days - just going over to their apartment or whatever. One day, Matt said to me, "Hey man, why don't you write us a piece?", and I said, "Umm.. ok."

At this point, I don't think they expected much. They hadn't had that many pieces written for them yet, and I was just starting as a composer, only in my second year of school. I decided I wanted to write something that would really show off what they could do technically and musically, and that would leave audiences breathless.

Not knowing how to begin, I lifted a line from a piece that I had just written - a solo flute piece titled "The Five Rings of Miyamoto Musashi". That became the opening line of the piece. Then, inspired by the one movement sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti, I wrote the piece based on that line. The piece is full of things that I was just discovering and becoming influenced by at the time: baroque sonatas, renaissance lute music (hence the "lute" tuning of the guitar), the tangos of Piazzolla as well as the ever-present rock and heavy metal that has always been part of my music. Since Duo 46 premiered the piece in 1999, Sonata 46 has become one of my most frequently and widely performed pieces.

About Intermezzo D'Anniversaire by Danae Vlasse: This piece is a Theme and Variations on the famous Op118 No2 Intermezzo by  Johannes Brahms. It develops my favorite 8 measure theme from the original work and was specifically composed in the style of Brahms. The second section in this piece is built on specific pitches such that it incorporates a message for the recipient of the commission "Joyeux Anniversaire Karen" ("Happy Birthday Karen").

Homage to Margherita Hack (1922-2013) - Piano Solo

With his adventuresome spirit and vast musical gifts, violinist Tim Fain has emerged as a mesmerizing new presence on the music scene.  The “charismatic young violinist with a matinee idol profile, strong musical instincts, and first rate chops” (Boston Globe) was most recently seen on screen and heard on the soundtrack of the new hit film Black Swan, and heard as the sound of Richard Gere’s violin in Fox Searchlight’s feature film Bee Season. Selected as one of Symphony and Strad magazines’ “Up-and-Coming Musicians,” Fain captured the Avery Fisher Career Grant  and a Young Concert Artists International Award.  As The Washington Post recently raved, “Fain has everything he needs for a first-rate career.”

He electrified audiences at debuts with the Baltimore Symphony with conductor Marin Alsop, at Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival and with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s.  He has also appeared with the Mexico City and Oxford (UK) Symphonies, Cincinnati Chamber Symphony, Brooklyn and Hague Philharmonics, and the Curtis Symphony Orchestra in a special performance at Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center.  In addition, he was the featured soloist with the Philip Glass Ensemble at Carnegie Hall in a concert version of Einstein on the Beach and continues to tour the US and Europe in a duo-recital program with Phillip Glass.

Fain appeared in recital at the Ravinia Festival, Amsterdam’s venerable Concertgebouw, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, the Kennedy Center Mexico’s Festival de Musica de Camara in San Miguel de Allende, Carnegie’s Weill Hall, California’s Carmel Mozart Society, University of Georgia, Boston’s Ives and Ringling International Festivals, San Diego Art Institute, University of California at Davis, Alice Tully Hall, the 92nd St Y, and elsewhere across the globe. His multi-media evening Portals premiered to sold-out audiences in New York, Los Angeles and at its midwestern premiere at Omaha’s KANEKO. The centerpiece of the evening is Partita for solo violin, a new work written especially for him by Philip Glass, and also features collaborations with Benjamin Millepied, Leonard Cohen, film maker Kate Hackett, and with radio personality Fred Child and pianist Nicholas Brittel appearing on screen.  

A dynamic and compelling performer in traditional works, he is also a fervent champion of 20th and 21st century composers, with a repertoire ranging widely from Beethoven and Tchaikovsky to Aaron Jay Kernis and John Corigliano; as the Los Angeles Times recently noted, his career “is based, in part, on new music and new ways of thinking about classical music.“  His provocative debut CD Arches, music for solo violin, reflects Fain’s inquisitive passion and intellect, combining old and new solo works by J.S. Bach, Fritz Kreisler, Kevin Puts, Mark O’Connor, Daniel Ott, and Randy Woolf. His new disc, River of Light (Naxos), brings the tradition of the virtuosic short piece into the present, with short works by living American composers.

He has collaborated with such luminaries as Pinchas Zukerman, Richard Goode, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Jonathan Biss, has appeared with the Mark Morris Dance Group, Seán Curran Company, and Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, and appeared onstage with the New York City Ballet, performing alongside the dancers in the acclaimed premiere of Benjamin Millepied’s “Double Aria." He has also worked with jazz pianists Billy Childs and Ethan Iverson (The Bad Plus), guitarist Rich Robinson (Black Crowes), and appeared at Jazz at Lincoln Center with singer-songwriter Rob Thomas (Matchbox 20). 

A sought-after chamber musician, Fain has performed at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, New York’s Bargemusic, Chamber Music Northwest, and the Spoleto (Italy), Bridgehampton, Santa Fe, Caramoor, Bard, Lucerne (Switzerland), “Bravo” Vail Valley, Moab, and Martha’s Vineyard Festivals. He has toured nationally with Musicians from Marlboro, and was first violinist of the Rossetti String Quartet. 

A native of Santa Monica, California, Tim Fain is a graduate of The Curtis Institute of Music, in Philadelphia, where he studied with Victor Danchenko, and The Juilliard School, where he worked with Robert Mann.  He performs on a violin made by Franceso Gobetti, Venice 1717, the “Moller,” on extended loan from Clement and Karen Arrison through the generous efforts of the Stradivari Society of Chicago.
