Though she was born overseas, Patricia has always identified as Australian, having spent her formative years in Ringwood. She received her citizenship in 1994. Through her early training in ballet, Patricia developed a love for classical music and theatre that would remain with her for life. She remembers finding joy in collecting classical CDs which at one time came with the paper and included a book about the composer. Growing up, Patricia’s love of performing saw her selected by Margot Sheridan to be in the choir for The Tarax Show, where she would perform alongside Patti Newton (neé McGrath). She describes one of the highlights of this time as performing at Carols by Candlelight. Seeing the lights of the candles from the stage was a truly memorable experience. Patricia and her husband did things “the wrong way round” and decided to go travelling before having children. For two years they lived in London and spent the summers travelling around Europe in a campervan. On returning to Australia Patricia had two sons, Robert and Peter, who have both, in turn, made her a “very proud Nanna” of two grandsons and a granddaughter. Patricia stumbled across 3MBS almost by accident when she was listening in the car with her son Peter. She has been a consistent supporter of the station ever since and values its professionalism, jazz programs and Intermezzo. Unsurprisingly, given her background, Patricia is a particular fan of the 3MBS Young Performer Awards. She has also attended several other memorable 3MBS events, often with her friend Jennifer, including the 10th Classic Concerts Cruise with 4MBS in April 2008, as well the 25th anniversary celebrations at Government House of 3MBS’s first broadcast. Patricia is a supporter of several charities, including the Make a Wish Foundation and the Alannah and Madeline Foundation. She describes the decision to leave a bequest to 3MBS as a “fairly easy” one, knowing that 3MBS relies on the support of its volunteers and donors to exist. She believes that continued support by the listeners of 3MBS is exceptionally important, as she feels it is “such a terrific station, and like many other people I don’t want to see it go by the wayside. (3MBS) continuing as it is, is a really good thing.” 4 On Air apr 2015 BRONZE PATRONS ($500 - 1,034) Keith & Cornelia Adams Rosemary Ashby Ingrid Ashford Claire Baillieu Rowland Ball OAM Luisa Banks & Eugene Antczak Jane Bethell Virginia Billson Alison & Peter Brooks Maureen Brunt AO Jennifer Dowling Ian Godsil in memory of Evelyn Godsil Dr Ian Hanson OAM Ian Haskins OAM & Enid Haskins Geoff Hayes Winifred Hirst Noelene Horton Julie Huggard Geoff Illing Peter Kelly Mark & Alla Medownick Doreen Mules Anne & Murray Neil Elizabeth Oakes Susan Porter Ptarmigan Investments John Rickard David & Henrietta Roberts Lois Salamonsen John Scully Jan Smith David Taylor Juliet Tootell Noel Turnbull Phillipa Woodward Anonymous (8) From young performer to life-long lover of music.

But there is something powerful and beautiful about experiencing his music through the purity of a single performer and a single instrument, which focuses our hearing on notes over orchestrations, and on the music itself. Of the modern American composers who came before him, like John Cage (1912–1992), and of his contemporaries, such as Steve Reich (b.1936) and Terry Riley (b.1935), Glass is the only breakout composer of this kind. None of them has composed work that has been successfully embraced in minimalist, experimental, concert-orchestra, and mass-media settings. Nor has any other of them composed work which at times challenges the most basic of conventions of classical European composition, while at other times including “chord changes that are so Schubertian”, as Kronos Quartet founder David Harrington said of Glass’s music in 2012. Indeed, Harrington told the Village Voice, he wished Schubert (1797–1828) himself “could hear how another composer had found new relevance in certain beautiful chord changes”. Lisitsa explores the temporal and orchestrational range of Glass’s work over some three decades. The effect of hearing such a multitudinous effort expressed through one piano, two hands and eighty-eight keys is haunting and staggering. While some of the works here were composed for the instrument (or, like segments of The Hours, were arranged for the piano by long-time Glass collaborator Michael Riesman when the score was published), many were originally conceived for multiple instruments or a full orchestra. Valentina Lisitsa plays Philip Glass A Note on the Music “Philip Glass’s place in musical history is secure”, New Yorker critic Alex Ross wrote in 2012, after the premiere of the composer’s Ninth Symphony at Carnegie Hall. Glass’s name first appeared in the pages of the Village Voice in ads for his furniture-moving company. He continued to move furniture for several years after the premiere of his opera Einstein on the Beach (1976), until he was in his early forties. While his early compositions for the Philip Glass Ensemble were reviewed by the Voice, the first alternative newsweekly in the United States, Glass’s work would be dismissed as just noise by mainstream publications like the New Yorker until many years later. Yet by 2015, the year in which pianist Valentina Lisitsa is releasing this beautiful, comprehensive and sensitive interpretation of his music, Glass’s place in musical history isn’t just set; he is enjoying a present as America’s most important classical composer. Lisitsa’s recordings are but one recent way to understand how far Glass has penetrated musical language in recent years. In addition to film scores, there’s Beck’s 2012 CD Rework_ Philip Glass; the Dublin Guitar Quartet’s appropriation of his string quartets and his recent compositions made for cellist Yo-Yo Ma and street dancer Lil’ Buck, to name a few examples of the panoply 6 On Air apr 2015 Lisitsa includes “Opening” from Glassworks (1982), which Glass said in a 2011 interview was composed specifically for CBS Records in order to expose his music to a broader audience. It’s sort of a halfway point of accessibility for a Glass listener. At one end of the spectrum is “How Now”, an almost half-hour-long solo piece. At the other end are Lisitsa’s renditions of songs from the film scores to Mishima (1985), The Truman Show (1998) and The Hours (2002). These tracks illustrate Glass’s ability to compose scores which simultaneously work as a standalone symphonic composition (which could exist without the film entirely), as a series of discrete songs, and as a series of motifs which lodge themselves as irrevocable mnemonic devices in one’s brain. After experiencing them, it is difficult to read the Japanese writer Yukio Mishima without hearing the refrain from “Closing” from Mishima, and equally hard to hear “Choosing Life” from The Hours without thinking of Virginia Woolf and her watery grave. In 1988 Glass published both Metamorphosis I-V and Wichita Vortex Sutra. It is fascinating to hear Lisitsa perform both the former, written for piano, and the latter, composed to be performed with words written and read by poet Allen Ginsberg (more recently with Patti Smith at the Park Avenue Armory in 2012). This collection also includes Mad Rush (1979), which Glass played in 2012 at a concert on top of the 2,000-year-old Temple of Dendur at the apr 2015 On Air 7 Metropolitan Museum of Art. That night, Glass said that he had been commissioned to write it for the first visit of Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, to New York City. It was composed for the organ at the Cathedral of St John the Divine, and needed to be “of indeterminate length”, as the Dalai Lama’s arrival time was uncertain. (Given the indeterminate feeling of pieces like How Now, this self-aware insight from the composer drew laughter.) When, we might wonder, does Glass’s music have more ambition; in the latter years, with a lifetime of affirmation and a whole symphony orchestra at his disposal? Or when he was a furniture mover, composing in modes and with orchestrations no one had ever heard before? Valentina Lisitsa’s encyclopedic exploration of both eras has the effect of distilling three decades of work through one pianist. This strips away the varying scales of orchestrations and makes something obvious: Glass’s musical daring grows and matures. Indeed, as was obvious when Glass was one of ten pianists performing his Piano Études all in one night for the first time ever, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Next Wave Festival, he is primarily a composer and has achieved a kind of immortality with his place in musical history as such. But as a performer, he is ageing and as mortal as you, the listener. What will last about him are the notes he wrote, and the live performances and recordings of those who interpret them. Right now, the music lives in the hands of Valentina Lisitsa, who has created a beautiful next chapter in the telling of a composer’s musical journey for your ears. Steven W. Thrasher Valentina Lisitsa plays Philip Glass Decca 478 8079 Trusts & Foundations We gratefully acknowledge the support from Trusts and Foundations enabling 3MBS to undertake broadcasting and performance projects and station capacity-building which would otherwise be impossible: The Arnold Foundation Freemasons Victoria The Community Broadcasting Foundation The Opus 50 Charitable Trust 8 On Air apr 2015 The Robert Salzer Foundation photo: Steven Godbee Louis Lortie by Robin Usher The French Canadian pianist, Louis Lortie, is supremely confident about his powers after decades playing with leading conductors in the world’s top halls. “As I get older (he is 55) I have become increasingly interested in music that is not programmed very often,” he says on the phone from Baltimore where he is on a tour of the north-east US. “This is not meant to be a crowd-pleaser because I don’t care if the hall is not full. I want to play interesting music.” He is speaking of the recital program that he will play in the Melbourne Recital Hall in April, as well as in Sydney. It is made up of the famous Preludes by Chopin, coupled with the far less well-known preludes by Gabriel Fauré and Alexander Scriabin, written around the turn of the 20th century. “I think there is a laziness on the part of many pianists that takes them back to the usual repertoire all the time,” he says. “But much of the great literature for the piano is not well-known. People need to hear music that is not usually played in the concert hall, which is the blessing of this program.” He cannot be accused of taking it easy on his Australian tour. “This program is horrible for me,” he says. “It is very strenuous, with sudden shifts in mood. Usually in a program there is a long piece to build momentum, but in this case as soon as something starts to build it is gone – much like life.” His Melbourne recital is grounded in the apr 2015 On Air 9 photo: Steven Godbee “I think pairing shorter pieces is very attractive because a lot of writing for piano and orchestra is not performed publicly,” he says. He acknowledges the Adelaide program with Schumann’s concerto is more traditional.” “I played this many years ago but have never performed it with Tortelier. It is an incredibly dense piece that changes direction by itself every time I approach it.” But he says Schumann was most at home writing shorter pieces. “He was one of many Romantic composers who suffered writing longer sonatas,” he says. “They suffered in the longer form but it’s their shorter pieces that are seldom programmed today.” His Australian repertoire is an example of Lortie’s wide range. The London Times said his playing has a “combination of total spontaneity and meditated ripeness that only great pianists have”. He has performed the complete Beethoven sonata cycles in London, Berlin and Milan, leading Die Welt newspaper to describe his Berlin performances as “possibly the finest Beethoven since the time of Wilhelm Kempff”. sudden shifts in mood. Usually in a program there is a long piece to build momentum, but in this case as soon as something starts to build it is gone – much like life.” His Melbourne recital is grounded in the Chopin Preludes and Lortie is a renowned Chopin interpreter. His early studies in Montreal were with Yvonne Hubert, herself a student of the legendary Alfred Cortot, famous for his interpretations of Chopin. In a recent review of a Lortie’s recording of Chopin’s music, the London Guardian says his playing “has a wonderful, penetrating directness about it”, describing his version of the composer’s third sonata as one of the best in recent times. Lortie will conclude his Melbourne recital with Chopin, acknowledging the audience will need to concentrate on the more rarely heard music by Fauré and Scriabin in the first half. “Fauré’s Preludes come from his late period, which people are usually scared to program,” he says. “The music is far-fetched harmoniously but his melodic line is easy to follow and is quite beautiful.” He says Scriabin, the mostly 20th century Russian composer, was prolific and had many different phases. “But his Preludes (written between 1888-96) are very early when he was at his easiest, influenced by Schubert and Schumann and modelled on Chopin. They are very interesting to hear in a cycle.” Lortie is performing with the Sydney and Adelaide Symphony Orchestras with conductor Yan-Pascal Tortelier before and after his Melbourne recital but even these reveal his programming daring. His contribution to the Sydney concert is made up of Franck’s Symphonic Variations and Mozart’s Rondo in D. 10 On Air apr 2015 Lortie, who is based with his family in Berlin, has also won acclaim for his interpretation of Ravel and Chopin and celebrated the bicentenary of Liszt’s birth in 2011 by performing the complete Années de pèlerinage at international music capitals and festivals. His Chandos recording of this monumental work was named one of the 10 best of 2012 by the New Yorker magazine. But Lortie has never played Liszt’s music on any of his visits to Australia, despite it being a regular part of his repertoire. He is performing Liszt’s massive sonata in London’s Wigmore Hall just before he comes to Australia, an acknowledgement there is much of his playing still to be discovered by local audiences. He played Mozart’s 25th concerto on his previous Melbourne visit two years ago, which he remembers because he did not like Hamer Hall’s acoustic. “Mediocre acoustics make it hard to attract an audience because modern recordings are made in perfect conditions, which has spoiled people and caused them to always expect perfection in the sound.” But he urges people to hear live performances “because you never know what will happen in the concert hall”. He says he is looking forward to playing in the Elisabeth Murdoch Hall with its renowned acoustic as part of the Major Performers series. Louis Lortie will perform Fauré’s Nine Preludes, Op.103, Scriabin’s Twenty-Four Preludes, Op.11, and Chopin’s TwentyFour Preludes, Op.28, at the Melbourne Recital Centre at 7.30pm on 14 April. apr 2015 On Air 11 Vesa-Matti Leppanen Kathryn Selby by Robin Usher Kathryn Selby is unique in Australian music. She arranges and leads five national concert tours a year but unlike other touring organizations she does not rely on the permanent support of a particular group of musicians. Umberto Clerici more ambitious to bring touring soloists to Australia. The point is not about profit but to provide a wonderful professional outlet for players,” she says. “Success means I can continue and everybody has fun.” Her next series of concerts illustrates her approach. She will be accompanied for a second time by the concertmaster of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, Finnish violinist Vesa-Matti Leppanen, and Umberto Clerici, who is co-principal cellist of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Instead, the Sydney-based pianist invites different players to perform with her in each concert, and admits the amount of organization required is daunting. “But it’s fun and fresh all the time, based on camaraderie and trust,” she says. “Colleagues tell me they are envious of the talent I get to play with over a year. The audiences are appreciative of what we do, because it involves great musicians playing great music and having fun.” The Finn is one of three concertmasters playing with Selby this year – Andrew Haveron, who will perform in May, is with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra after playing with the Brodsky Quartet for eight years, while Dale Barltrop (touring in November) recently joined the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. “These guys are extraordinary soloists, which most people don’t appreciate hearing them play in orchestral concerts,” Selby says. “You need a strong personality to be a concertmaster, confident in your abilities without being overbearing.” Her programming has become more adventurous over the past two years, now including sonatas as well as the more common trios and quartets. “I wonder why I never did it before, because it is so enjoyable for the players as well as the audience,” she says. “There is much more variety and it allows me to program pieces I have always wanted to play. I learn so much working with people of this quality.” She first played with Leppanen two years ago, accompanied by the principal cellist with the Australian Chamber Orchestra and regular collaborator, Timo-Vekko Valve. “I was nervous because I feared being the odd one out with two Finns,” Selby says. “Of course they did speak to each other in Finnish but they were very funny as well as being hard-working. There was no risk in being under-cooked.” This incarnation of Selby & Friends began in 2012 and is the latest evolution in the pianist’s life as a chamber musician. Her first group was the acclaimed Macquarie Trio which lasted 14 years with the support of Macquarie University before imploding over personality issues in 2006. Leppanen says he finds playing chamber music is a refreshing change after playing with an orchestra. “It is very good for my musical fitness,” he says. “It provides new insights into how I am doing as a player.” Her second group, Trioz, existed for five years and was always supplemented by the addition of musical friends. “I will have been playing with friends for 10 years next year and have plans to be even 12 On Air apr 2015 He moved to New Zealand in 2000 when he was 28 to be assistant concertmaster to Wilma Smith before she moved to Melbourne and he took over as concertmaster four years later. “I was in a string quartet with Wilma and we did a lot of touring. Chamber music is important to both of us.” apr 2015 On Air 13 He is not the only Finn with the NZSO – the music director and chief conductor since 2007 is Pietari Inkinen, who won acclaim conducting the Wagner Ring cycle in Melbourne for Opera Australia. But Leppanen says it is a coincidence they are both in Wellington because they did not know each other previously. Their collaboration could be seen as an indication of the strength of Finnish musical culture. Finns are in charge of London’s Philharmonia Orchestra (Esa-Pekka Salonen), as well as the Minnesota, Oslo and Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestras and the Royal Stockholm Symphony Orchestra. Leppanen says music is an integral part of Finland’s education system and is available to everyone. He moved to a music school in only his second year at primary school and studied music every day, culminating in his attendance at the Sibelius Academy. In a population of 5.3 million people, Finland has about 50 registered symphony orchestras. He says there is little doubt the strength of the musical tradition is due to Sibelius’ international standing. “Everyone who studies classical music around the world studies his works,” he says. “In such a small country a figure as huge as Sibelius continues to be relevant. Much of his music is based on Finnish myths and made Finns proud of their country.” Perhaps not surprisingly given the key role played by two Finns, the NZSO has recorded all the Sibelius symphonies. Leppanen, who plays a 1770 Gagliano violin on loan from an investor, says music is doing very well in New Zealand, especially considering the financial pressures facing classical music internationally since the global financial crisis. “Nevertheless, we would like to be able to do more,” he says. “Collaborating with Australia on sharing touring soloists is expensive but it probably always will be.” He enjoyed touring with Selby and Valve, and is thrilled to be returning. “Kathryn is very down to earth and there are no egos involved in her music-making. We really clicked the first time around.” The program for the April tour includes Beethoven’s Sonata For Cello & Piano (Op.5/1) and César Franck’s Sonata For Violin & Piano before concluding with Shostakovich’s Second Piano Trio, a classic in the repertoire. “The trio was written in 1944, which was one of the blackest years in Soviet history,” Leppanen says. “When you consider the environment in which it was written, you can understand the unbelievable darkness of the largo in the middle of the work. The last movement might sound happy but everyone knows that Shostakovich is really crying.” Kathryn Selby performs with Vesa-Matti Leppanen (violin) and Umberto Clerici (cello) in Federation Square’s Deakin Edge at 7.30pm on 15 April. 14 On Air apr 2015 Vale, Nicky McFarlane Nicky McFarlane, a dedicated volunteer at 3MBS for many years, died on 1 January following a stroke. Nicky was a “Pom” and grew up in an England at war. She recalled the Battle of Britain and fighting taking place over the school where she and her brother were boarders. At sixteen she began her working life as a nursing aide and went on to train as a nurse. Hers was a life spent caring for others, the “others” including the notorious Kim Philby just prior to his defection to Russia and a very old lady who claimed to have been one of King Edward VII’s lady friends! In 1953 she decided to come to Australia, where she continued her nursing career until her marriage, when raising seven children occupied her time. The family was constantly on the move, including two years in Port Moresby. She joined the Moresby Repertory Company and theatre became a passion which remained with her until her last days. After the death of her husband in 1996 she settled in Melbourne and, hearing a 3MBS appeal for presenters, she offered herself for training. For several years she was “on air” before retiring and continuing as a member of the volunteer group which provides talks to clubs and other organizations about the history and work of 3MBS. She was also a member of the team which prepares our progam guide On Air for mailing and, for a considerable time, assisted with office duties on Saturdays. Her faithful little dog Sam was often in attendance. Vale, Nicky, and thank you. Hector Walker apr 2015 On Air 15 Lacey performs with MCO Around Melbourne by Robin Usher American star violinist returns American violinist Sarah Chang has been gathering attention since she debuted with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra aged eight in 1988. She had been admitted to the Juilliard School two years earlier and today has gone on to become one of the world’s most distinguished and loved performers. She had played with the Philadelphia and London Symphony Orchestras by the time she was 11 and Yehudi Menuhin declared her to be “the most wonderful, the most perfect and the most ideal violinist I have ever heard”. She plays a 1717 Guarneri del Gesu, selected when she was a teenager with the help of Isaac Stern. Chang is making a second visit to Melbourne to play with the MSO after giving an electrifying performance of Barber’s violin concerto two years ago, this time playing Bruch’s famous G minor concerto with conductor Sir Andrew Davis. The program opens with Ives’ Three Places in New England and concludes with Nielsen’s Fourth Symphony. She follows this with an appearance at the Melbourne Recital Centre accompanied by pianist Caroline Almonte in a program made up of Bartók’s Romanian Folk Dances, Brahms’ Third Violin Sonata and Tchaikovsky’s Souvenir de Florence. She has said that playing chamber music is important, because it allows a feeling of rediscovery when she returns to playing with orchestras. Recorder player Genevieve Lacey is one of Australia’s most renowned soloists, both here and overseas. Her next performance is with the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra, featuring Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No.4 and concertos by Telemann and English composer William Babell. Lacey has also commissioned, premiered and recorded scores of new works and won multiple awards. The program will include Handel’s famous sinfonia, Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, and one of his concerti grossi, as well as a new work by Melbourne composer Nicholas Buc, who has also arranged works by Ravel for string orchestra. This is the second time the MCO has commissioned Buc, following last year’s premiere of Rhapsody for All Seasons by the MCO Virtuosi. Buc, who has also written for film and television, is currently completing a master’s degree at New York University. Genevieve Lacey appears with the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra in The Virtuoso Recorder in Federation Square’s Deakin Edge at 7.30pm on 17 April and in the Melbourne Recital Centre at 2.30pm on 19 April. Goldners celebrate platinum anniversary Australia’s most internationally renowned string quartet, the Goldner, is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year with a national tour for Musica Viva, presenting a program that sums up its long-held philosophy of respecting the classics while pioneering contemporary works. The group’s Melbourne concerts, on 21 April and 2 May, conclude with Beethoven’s late 15th quartet, preceded by Ligeti’s first quartet which was considered too dangerous to premiere behind the Iron Curtain, and Paul Stanhope’s third quartet premiered at last November’s Huntington Estate Music Festival in collaboration with Musica Viva. The group’s membership, married couples Dene Olding (violin) and Irina Morozova (viola) and Dimity Hall (violin) and Julian Smiles (cello) has not changed. It has performed overseas regularly since making its London debut at Wigmore Hall in 1997. Sarah Chang performs with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in Hamer Hall on 11 & 13 April, and in Geelong on 10 April. She will appear with pianist Caroline Almonte in the Melbourne Recital Centre at 7.30pm on 15 April. 16 On Air apr 2015 Its recordings have won international acclaim, including being named editor’s choices in Gramophone magazine and BBC Music Magazine. This review in the Gramophone is typical: “The Goldners give the most sublimely articulate and raptly communicative reading of Elgar’s apr 2015 On Air 17 elusive String Quartet that it’s been my privilege to encounter.” The only criticism that might be made from a Melbourne perspective of the Goldner Quartet, named after the founder of Musica Viva, is that too many of its activities are focused north of the Murray - in Sydney, Huntington and Townsville’s annual chamber music festival. This is all the more reason to appreciate their music-making on the current tour, which will be enhanced by lighting by director Rodney Fisher. The Goldner String Quartet performs music by Ligeti, Stanhope and Beethoven in the Melbourne Recital Centre at 7pm on 21 April and May 2. Modern classic for Ensemble Liaison English composer David Bruce says his work, Gumboots, was inspired by the brutal work conditions of South African miners under apartheid. It was commissioned by New York’s Carnegie Hall for clarinettist Todd Palmer and the St Lawrence String Quartet and has been played around the world. It is included in the opening concert in this year’s subscription series by Ensemble Liaison, who describe it as a modern masterpiece. The group has an unusual combination of David Griffiths (clarinet), Svetlana Bogosavljevic (cello) and Timothy Young (piano). The concert opens with the group’s arrangement of Schumann’s Fairy Tales and concludes with Brahms’ Piano Quintet, for which the trio will be joined by violinists Elizabeth Sellars and Paul Wright and violist Cameron Hill. Ensemble Liaison presents Fairy Tales and Gumboots at 7pm in the Melbourne Recital Centre on 29 April. 18 On Air apr 2015 Thomas Tallis’ Top Twenty Terrific Trinkets of Tantalizing Trivia 1.

Irish and East Anglian influences permeate much of his music. After his sudden death in 1950, aged only fifty-four, he was seen to be only a minor composer. However, in recent years opinions have changed, and Moeran is now emerging from the shadows as one of the finest English composers of his generation. Through Moeran’s widow, there is an interesting link with Melbourne. Hector Walker surveys his life and work and introduces music which is virtually unknown to audiences in Australia. 10.00 Theatretrack with Henry Sachwald Original cast recordings from Broadway, the West End and Australia.
