London Philharmonic Orchestra

the Orchestra takes up its annual residency at Glyndebourne Festival Opera, where it has been Resident Symphony Orchestra for over 50 years.

The Orchestra also tours internationally, performing to sell-out audiences worldwide. In 1956 it became the first British orchestra to appear in Soviet Russia and in 1973 made the first ever visit to China by a Western orchestra.

One of the finest orchestras on the international stage, the London Philharmonic Orchestra balances a long and distinguished history with its reputation as one of the UK’s most forward-looking ensembles. As well as its concert performances, the Orchestra also records film soundtracks, releases CDs and downloads on its own label, and reaches thousands of people every year through activities for families, schools and local communities.

The London Philharmonic Orchestra has recorded many blockbuster film scores, from The Lord of the Rings trilogy to Lawrence of Arabia, East is East, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and Thor: The Dark World.

It also broadcasts regularly on television and radio, and in 2005 established its own record label. There are now over 100 releases available on CD and to download.

Recent highlights include Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11 and Mahler’s Symphony No. 8 under Vladimir Jurowski; a commemorative box set of historic recordings with former Principal Conductor Sir Adrian Boult; and works by Richard Strauss under Klaus Tennstedt, featuring soprano Jessye Norman.

The Orchestra was founded by Sir Thomas Beecham in 1932, and has since been headed by many great conductors including Sir Adrian Boult, Bernard Haitink, Sir Georg Solti, Klaus Tennstedt and Kurt Masur.

In September 2021 Edward Gardner became the Orchestra’s Principal Conductor, succeeding Vladimir Jurowski, who became Conductor Emeritus in recognition of his transformative impact on the Orchestra as Principal Conductor from 2007–21.

Karina Canellakis is the Orchestra’s current Principal Guest Conductor and Brett Dean is the Orchestra’s current Composer-in-Residence.

In summer 2012 the London Philharmonic Orchestra performed as part of The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the River Thames, and was also chosen to record all the world’s national anthems for the London 2012 Olympics. In 2013 it was the winner of the RPS Music Award for Ensemble.

The Orchestra is resident at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London, where it gives around 40 concerts each season. It also enjoys flourishing residencies in Brighton, Eastbourne and Saffron Walden, and performs regularly around the UK. Each summer

Pieter Schoeman

The London Philharmonic Orchestra is committed to inspiring the next generation of musicians, and recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of its Education and Community department, whose work over three decades has introduced so many people of all ages to orchestral music and created opportunities for people of all backgrounds to fulfil their creative potential.

Its dynamic and wide-ranging programme provides first musical experiences for children and families; offers creative projects and professional development opportunities for schools and teachers; inspires talented teenage instrumentalists to progress their skills; and develops the next generation of professional musicians.

The Orchestra’s work at the forefront of digital technology has enabled it to reach millions of people worldwide. Over the pandemic period the LPO further developed its relationship with UK and international audiences through its ‘LPOnline’ digital content: over 100 videos of performances, insights, and introductions to playlists, which collectively received over 3 million views worldwide and led to the LPO being named runner-up in the Digital Classical Music Awards 2020.

From Autumn 2020 the Orchestra was delighted to be able to return to its Southbank Centre home to perform a season of concerts filmed live and streamed free of charge via Marquee TV.

Leader

Pieter Schoeman was appointed Leader of the London Philharmonic Orchestra in 2008, having previously been Co-Leader since 2002. He is also a Professor of Violin at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance.

Pieter has performed worldwide as a soloist and recitalist in such famous halls as the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Moscow’s Rachmaninov Hall, Capella Hall in St Petersburg, Staatsbibliothek in Berlin, Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and London’s Royal Festival Hall.

As a chamber musician he regularly appears at London’s prestigious Wigmore Hall. His chamber music partners have included Anne-Sophie Mutter, Veronika Eberle, Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Boris Garlitsky, JeanGuihen Queyras, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Martin Helmchen and Julia Fischer.

September 2021 saw the opening of a new live concert season at the Royal Festival Hall, featuring many of the world’s leading musicians including Sheku KannehMason, Klaus Mäkelä, Renée Fleming, Bryn Terfel and this season’s Artist-in-Residence, Julia Fischer.

Looking ahead to its 2022/23 season, the Orchestra is delighted to be continuing to offer digital streams to selected concerts throughout the season through its ongoing partnership with Intersection and Marquee TV.

Pieter has performed numerous times as a soloist with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Highlights have included an appearance as both conductor and soloist in Vivaldi’s Four Seasons at the Royal Festival Hall, the Brahms Double Concerto with Kristina Blaumane, and the Britten Double Concerto with Alexander Zemtsov, which was recorded and released on the LPO Label to great critical acclaim.

Edward Gardner Principal Conductor, London Philharmonic Orchestra

© Benjamin Ealovega

In demand as a guest conductor, recent seasons have seen Edward debut with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, San Francisco Symphony, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic and Vienna Symphony. He also continues his longstanding collaborations with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, where he was Principal Guest Conductor from 2010–16, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra, whom he has conducted at both the First and Last Night of the BBC Proms.

Music Director of English National Opera for ten years (2006–15), Edward has an ongoing relationship with New York’s Metropolitan Opera, where he has conducted productions of La damnation de Faust, Carmen, Don Giovanni, Der Rosenkavalier and Werther.

In London he has future plans with the Royal Opera House, where he made his debut in 2019 in a new production of Káťa Kabanová and returned for Werther the following season. The 2021/22 season saw Edward make his debut with the Bayerische Staatsoper in a new production of Peter Grimes. Elsewhere, he has conducted at La Scala, Chicago Lyric Opera, Den Norske Opera and Ballet, Glyndebourne Festival Opera and Opéra National de Paris.

Edward Gardner began his tenure as Principal Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra in September 2021; he is also Chief Conductor of the Bergen Philharmonic, a position he has held since 2015.

From February 2022 he also became Artistic Advisor at the Norwegian Opera & Ballet, and will take up the position of Music Director in August 2024.

During the 2021/22 season Edward conducted the London Philharmonic Orchestra in eleven concerts at the Royal Festival Hall, opening with an acclaimed performance of Tippett’s The Midsummer Marriage in which the London Philharmonic Choir was joined by the ENO Chorus. On 31 August he conducts the Orchestra in Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius at the BBC Proms, with the LPC and the Hallé Choir. He returns to the Royal Festival Hall on 24 September to open the Orchestra’s 2022/23 season with Schoenberg’s Gurrelieder. Other LPO programmes next season include Mendelssohn’s ‘Reformation’ Symphony, Lutosławski’s Fourth Symphony, Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, Mahler’s Fifth Symphony, an Elgar symphony cycle, and – with the London Philharmonic Choir – Janáček’s Glagolitic Mass and Berlioz’s Damnation of Faust.

A passionate supporter of young talent, Edward founded the Hallé Youth Orchestra in 2002 and regularly conducts the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain.

He has a close relationship with The Juilliard School of Music and with the Royal Academy of Music, who appointed him their inaugural Sir Charles Mackerras Conducting Chair in 2014.

Born in Gloucester in 1974, Edward was educated at the University of Cambridge and the Royal Academy of Music. He went on to become Assistant Conductor of the Hallé and Music Director of Glyndebourne Touring Opera. His many accolades include being named Royal Philharmonic Society Award Conductor of the Year (2008), an Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Opera (2009) and receiving an OBE for Services to Music in the Queen’s Birthday Honours (2012).

Edward opened the Bergen Philharmonic’s 2021/22 season with a performance of John Adams’s Harmonium. Further highlights include an all-Stravinsky programme and new commissions by Thomas Larcher, Ryan Wigglesworth and Rebecka Ahvenniemi.

Following recent tours to Berlin, Munich, Amsterdam and at the BBC Proms and Edinburgh International Festival, the orchestra will perform in Barcelona and Paris this season.

Edward Gardner’s position at the LPO is generously supported by Aud Jebsen.

London Philharmonic Orchestra on Marquee TV • 16 April 2022 • Concerto for Orchestra

Programme notes Béla Bartók 1881–1945

Concerto for Orchestra 1943

1 Introduzione (Introduction): Andante non troppo – Allegro vivace 2 Giuoco delle coppie (Game of Couples): Allegretto scherzando 3 Elegia (Elegy): Andante non troppo 4 Intermezzo interotto (Interrupted Intermezzo): Allegretto 5 Finale: Pesante – Presto composer soon got the feeling that the Americans were less interested in his music than they were in his perceived prestige.

Bartók was also ill. He didn’t know it, but he was dying of leukemia. The pain and mystery of his illness put a huge strain on the composer and he withdrew into himself.

In 1942 the violinist Joseph Szigeti and conductor Serge Koussevitsky attempted to rekindle Bartók’s spirits with a commission for an orchestral work, to be performed by Koussevitsky’s Boston Symphony Orchestra. The result became Bartók’s signature work. For Koussevitsky, at the time of the Concerto for Orchestra’s first performance in December 1944, it was ‘the best orchestral piece of the last 25 years.’ The words were quoted by the composer himself, who wrote excitedly to a friend recounting the details of the first performance in Boston and Koussevitsky’s reaction to it.

Béla Bartók transcribed swathes of peasant music from his native Hungary as well as from Romania, Croatia and beyond. By the 1920s he had developed a musical voice that fused these discoveries with his existing postImpressionistic, late Romantic tendencies. It was a distinctive voice full of writhing textures, rhythmic drive, sonorous harmonies and elemental folk qualities.

The Concerto for Orchestra represents one of Bartók’s most successful attempts to marry local folk music to a more universal orchestral language. The work’s title reflects ‘a tendency to treat the single instruments or instrumental groups in a concertante or soloistic manner,’ and is built in an arch structure in which the first movement reflects the fifth and the second reflects the fourth. They surround a central Elegia described by Bartók as a ‘night piece’.

Like so many others, Bartók’s life was thrown off-course

by World War II. In 1940 the composer left Nazioccupied Hungary for a tour of America. Initially things turned out well: the tour was a success and Bartók was offered a teaching post at Columbia University. But the

Programme notes Bartók exploits the qualities of particular instruments or instrumental groups deliciously. But there are a few less-obvious features in the Concerto to listen out for.

One is his treatment of intervals (two notes separated by a specific gap), and his fondness for the interval of the perfect fourth (think of the first two notes of the carol ‘Away in a Manger’). The Concerto’s main theme is built from fourths, outlined in the piece’s hushed opening.

In Bartók’s second movement the folk influence can be heard via melodies strung into a chain, played by five pairs of wind instruments. Bartók characterises each pair with a particular interval: bassoons play in sixths, oboes in thirds, clarinets in sevenths, flutes in fifths and trumpets in seconds.

As the Concerto for Orchestra thumps towards its end, there’s a clear feeling of release. ‘Strings whip up clouds of dust under manic feet’ writes Alex Ross in his book The Rest Is Noise; ‘winds squawk like children.’

Was this an imagined homecoming from the exiled Bartók? If so, it was the nearest he’d get. He died in America ten months after the Concerto’s first performance.
