Dublin Brass Week Brochure 2016

FESTIVAL BROCHURE €2

Welcome David Collins Artistic Director, Dublin Brass Week I am excited to welcome you to the fourth edition of Dublin Brass Week at the Royal Irish Academy of Music.

From our modest beginnings presenting trumpet masterclasses in 2013 we have gradually expanded to full orchestral brass, with 2016 presenting masterclasses for trumpet, French horn, trombone and tuba.

It is an honour to welcome our truly world class faculty of 10 brass players to Dublin. 32 brass students join us from across the globe, many of whom are visiting Ireland for the first time. The DBW Concerto Competition continues this year with the winner performing as soloist with Dublin Orchestral Players in November 2016. The DBW Academy programme for players aged 18 and under is growing from strength to strength, featuring 9 of Ireland's most promising young brass players from counties across the island of Ireland.

This year, DBW16 presents three exciting concerts–our opening concert on 28 June features Marie-Luise Neunecker, Mike Lovatt and Zoltán Kiss at the Pepper Canister Church in a programme that covers everything from Schumann to “Schnapsodie”. The concert also showcases our DBW16 players in various brass dectets including the Irish premiere of the late Tim Souster’s “All Summer Long: A Beach Boys’ Fantasy”. The second concert on 29 June at TCD Chapel features baroque concerti performed by Richard Watkins, Jörgen van Rijen and Øystein Baadsvik with the Dublin Consort.

Additionally, Reinhold Friedrich performs the infamously high clarino trumpet part in Bach Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, which has only been performed in Ireland a handful of times over the past 50 years. Our Closing Concert on 30 June will include highlights from the entire festival with large instrumental ensembles and solos from our faculty (Oystein’s beatboxing on tuba is not to be missed…!) all in the beautiful surroundings of the Freemasons' Hall on Molesworth Street.

Dublin Brass Week would not be possible without a huge amount of work behind the scenes. Year round we are a team of three and everything from faculty flights, hotel bookings, organisation of student hosting, venue hire and design of this brochure are organised by Sarah, Tom and myself in our spare time from our full time jobs as professional musicians. I would particularly like to thank RIAM Director Deborah Kelleher for hosting us at the Royal Irish Academy of Music and supporting us since our inaugural festival in 2013. As DBW does not receive any public funding we rely heavily on private sponsorship and it is with the generosity of our sponsors, who you will see featured throughout this brochure, that Dublin Brass Week is kept alive.

Looking ahead to 2017, we are excited to announce that DBW will be teaming up with ESB Feis Ceoil and their senior brass competitions. The Senior Brass Recital competition will become the Dublin Brass Week Recital with the winner being awarded a scholarship place to Dublin Brass Week 2017.

A final thank you to you; the players, teachers, concert goers and brass enthusiasts for attending and supporting the festival this year and every year, as without participants and an audience we would not be where we are today. It has been a hectic time leading up to our biggest festival to date and we are looking forward to more successful editions of Dublin Brass Week in 2017 and beyond!

FACULTY

Reinhold Friedrich

Since his second prize in the international ARD competition in Munich in 1986 Reinhold Friedrich has been present on all important stages of the national and international music scene. His spectrum goes from the latest solo compositions to ancient music on historical original instruments, such as the baroque trumpet and the keyed trumpet. In 1982 he debuted at the Berliner Festwochen performing Luciano Berio’s “Sequenza X” and in 1994 at the Musikverein in Vienna playing Joseph Haydn’s Concerto on the keyed trumpet.

Reinhold Friedrich has played with Capriccio Basel, the Orchestre des ChampsÉlysées or the Vienna Academy on historical original instruments as well as premiered works of composers like Wolfgang Rihm, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, Rebecca Saunders, Hans Werner Henze, Nicolaus A. Huber, and Adriana Hölszky. The concertos “Eirene” by Herbert Willi and “Nobody knows de trouble I see” by Bernd Alois Zimmermann form important parts of his wideranging repertoire.

As a solo player, he performed with ensembles such as the Berliner Barock Solisten, La Stagione Frankfurt, Wiener and Basler Kammerorchester, Bamberger and Wiener Symphoniker, Orchestre Philharmonique de la Radio France, Deutsches Symphonie- Orchester Berlin, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, BBC Symphony Orchestra and German Radio Orchestras of the NDR and HR. These performances were conducted by, among others, Claudio Abbado, Semyon Bychkov, Christopher Hogwood, Krystjan und Neeme Järvi, Sir Neville Marriner, Ingo Metzmacher, Jonathan Nott, Kazushi Ono and Hans Zender.

Since its founding in 2003, Reinhold Friedrich is a permanent principal trumpet of the Lucerne Festival Orchestra and artistic director of the Lucerne Festival Orchestra Brass Ensemble. Numerous recordings give evidence of his comprehensive work. The latest recording with the Göttinger Symphony Orchestra under Christoph-Mathias Mueller called “Russian Trumpet Concertos” has been awarded an ECHO Classic. In 2016, Reinhold Friedrich will record again Bach’s 2nd Brandenburg Concerto with the Berliner Barock Solisten. Reinhold Friedrich is professor in Karlsruhe, honorary professor at the Royal Academy of Music in London and in Hiroshima, Japan.

Mike Lovatt Mike Lovatt studied at Trinity College of music where he was awarded the Jon Kelly Jazz Scholarship. He has performed and recorded a wide range of musical styles with many artists including Quincy Jones, Robbie Williams, Eric Clapton, The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Michael Buble, Oasis, Michel Le Grand, Tony Bennett, Toots Thielmans, Marty Paich, Johnny Mathis, The Michael Nyman Band, Michael Ball, Shirley Bassey, Michael Crawford, Danny Elfman, Joby Talbot, The BBC Symphony and Concert Orchestras, London Brass, and The Glenn Miller Orchestra.

As Principal Trumpet in London’s West End, Mike has performed in Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita, The Producers, Billy Elliot, Guys and Dolls, Saturday Night Fever, My Fair Lady, and Spamalot amongst others. Mike is the lead trumpet of the BBC Big Band who featured him in a tribute to Maynard Fergusson. He has played on movie soundtracks including the James Bond films Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day, Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows with The London Symphony Orchestra, the award winning Chicago, Kevin Spacey’s Beyond the Sea, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Madagascar, and The Corpse Bride.

He is featured on trumpet and cornet in George Fenton’s Mrs Henderson Presents, and on trumpet in ‘Looking for Eric.’

Mike is principal trumpet with the Grammy Nominated John Wilson Orchestra and has been featured in their celebrated BBC promenade concerts and recordings. In 1999 Mike first performed the Sacred Music of Duke Ellington with Jessye Norman, Mark Markham, Ron Carter and Grady Tate. This collaboration with Ms Norman has continued with a duo appearance at the Tate gallery in London, and touring extensively with performances at Carnegie Hall, throughout Europe and the Montreux Jazz Festival where the legend Quincy Jones commented “great chops Mike.”

Mike is sought after as a teacher, clinician and is a professor of trumpet at The Royal Academy of Music and The Royal College of Music. In April 2013, Mike was proud to be awarded the prestigious position of The Derek Watkins' Chair of Trumpet at The Royal Academy of Music, London.

In 2009 Mike was soloist with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra Brass Ensemble and more recently the Espoo Big Band Helsinki and The London Symphony Orchestra with Eddie Daniels. In 2012 Mike recorded and was featured with Carl Davis on his score for the TV Drama series ‘Upstairs Downstairs’, John Lunn's music for 'The Lady Vanishes' and Charlie Moles's music for the hit ITV series 'Mr Selfridge'.

A founder and former president of the British Trombone Association with many publications to his credit, Peter has earned particular recognition for his work with young people. He has a long-standing association with the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain and the European Union Youth Orchestra where he has been professor of trombone since 1977 and 1984 respectively. In 2009 Peter was acting director of the National Youth Orchestra for the summer course, Aldeburgh Festival, Royal Albert Hall prom and for the subsequent entrance auditions. As a teacher, brass specialist and conductor he has taken masterclasses and workshops in many European conservatoires and with professional groups in Germany, France, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Spain, Holland, Austria, Italy and the US. In 1996 his international reputation was confirmed by the presentation of the Neill Humfeld Award for excellence in trombone teaching by the International Trombone Association.

He became a professor at the Guildhall School in 1971, was elected a Fellow of the School in 1981 and was Head of the Wind, Brass and Percussion department from 1988 to 2008. He still contributes to the specialist brass and wind programmes at the Guildhall and remains a professor at the department. He is Artistic Adviser to the Combret Music Festival, Aveyron, France.

Zoltán Kiss Born in Budapest (Hungary) in 1980, Zoltán was largely self-taught, developing his technique through being inspired by leading trumpet players. He attended the Chopin University of Music in Warsaw, winning a handful of national competitions both as a soloist and with chamber ensembles.

Zoltán was invited to audition for the Austrian brass septet Mnozil Brass in 2005, for which he now tours the world performing in over 100 concerts per year. He has released three albums to date including Slideshow (2010), Rebelión (2011), and Non-Stop (2014). In 2014, Zoltán was appointed as International Trombone Tutor for the The Philip Jones Centre for Brass (Royal Northern College of Music) in Manchester, United Kingdom.

​Zoltán plays exclusively on his signature trombones, Kissbone and KissboneX, designed in collaboration with Austrian maker, Schagerl. His self-designed ‘Zoltán Kiss’ edition mouthpiece is produced by Latsch Custom Brass in Germany. Whenever time permits, Zoltán engages himself as a guest soloist, educator, or adjudicator.

Jörgen van Rijen Principal trombonist of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Jörgen van Rijen is als​o much in demand as a soloist with a special commitment to developing new repertoire for the trombone and bringing the existing repertoire to a broader audience.

He is a specialist on both the modern and baroque trombone. He has performed as a soloist in most European countries, as well as the United States, Asia and Australia and performed concertos with orchestras including the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Czech Philharmonic, the Rotterdam Philharmonic, Combattimento Consort Amsterdam and the Netherlands Symphony Orchestra. In the coming seasons Jörgen will appear as a soloist with Taiwan Philharmonic, Nagoya Philharmonic, and on tour in Japan with Michel Becquet.

Jörgen was awarded the Netherlands Music Prize in 2004, the highest distinction in the field of music, by the Dutch Ministry of Culture. In 2006 he received the prestigious Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award, which is presented yearly to a selection of the most promising and talented young international soloists and ensembles. He has won other major prizes, including first prizes at the international trombone competitions of Toulon and Guebwiller.

In a review of his first CD, the music magazine 'Luister' wrote: 'Van Rijen is a real ambassador of his instrument, which is still not often used as a virtuoso brass instrument among composers. But there are not that many trombonists who reach the brilliant level of Van Rijen. In sound, dynamic, colour, musical understanding and expressiveness, Van Rijen is unequalled...'.

Many new pieces have been written for Jörgen, including a trombone concerto by Theo Verbey, commissioned by the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. In the spring of 2012 Jörgen has premiered a trombone concerto by Kalevi Aho that was written for him as a commission from the Borletti-Buitoni Trust, with concerts with the The Hague Philharmonic, the Oulu Sinfonia in Finland and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. About that last concert The Times wrote: "... van Rijen and Aho turned the trombone into a fount of melodic grace and gambolling, cradled over four generous movements by an equally refined orchestra..." Plans for the future include new commissions by Florian Maier and James MacMillan.

Jörgen teaches at the Amsterdam Conservatory and has been appointed International Visiting Professor at the Royal Academy of Music, London. He is also an active chamber musician. He was one of the founders of the New Trombone Collective and the RCO Brass. ​He plays exclusively on instruments built by Antoine Courtois and has released 3 CDs on the label Channel Classics.

Øystein Baadsvik Øystein Baadsvik is the only tuba virtuoso to have carved out a career exclusively as a soloist, rather than becoming a member of an orchestra or accepting a teaching post. His multi-faceted musical career as a soloist, chamber musician, lecturer and recording artist has taken him all over the world. The unique virtuosity and musicality Mr. Baadsvik’s brings to the tuba has established him as the exemplar of the instrument.

He studied under the celebrated tuba player Harvey Phillips, Distinguished Professor meritus, Indiana University and with the legendary Arnold Jacobs, who had a forty-year career and position of Principal Tuba with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Øystein Baadsvik’s international career began in 1991 when he was awarded two prizes at the prestigious Concours International d’Exécution Musicale in Geneva.

His international engagements include performances with orchestras such as the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, Bergen Philharmonic, Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, Taipei National Symphony Orchestra, Singapore Philharmonic, and Orchestra Victoria of Melbourne. Baadsvik has performed in some of the most famous venues in the world and in 2006 made his New York recital debut at Carnegie Hall. He works constantly to expand the musical aspects of the tuba and has premiered some forty solo works by composers from the USA, Russia, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. In this ongoing process he has developed new tuba-playing techniques that have been used in more recent works for the instrument.

Baadsvik is an active recording artist whose CDs receive unstinting praise. During the last two years he reached a major breakthrough in Japan, where his CDs ranked second in sales recordings for all wind instruments. In their review of “Tuba Works”, American Record Guide said, “This spectacular recording establishes Baadsvik as one of the best solo tubists in the world.” In praise of “Tuba Carnival”, The Daily Telegraph, UK said, “…his capacity for lyricism in a recording that emancipates the tuba from its Cinderella role with ear-catching panache. Baadsvik shows that anything a violin can do, a tuba can do too.

FESTIVAL PIANISTS David Adams has been a prize-winning performer on both organ and harpsichord since becoming the first winner of the Dublin International Organ Competition in 1986. Adams has released a solo organ CD as well as recordings on Naxos, Black Box and EZM. Adams has taught at DIT Conservatory of Music and Drama, Trinity College Dublin, conservatories in Freiburg, Berlin, The Hague, and currently lectures at the RIAM. Patricia M. Gane earned a national reputation for her skills in accompanying, coaching and teacher training. She is currently Director of a flourishing Music Association in the South of France and project manager of its annual festival, which involves the presentation of solo piano recitals, coaching and accompanying young European musicians.
