2. Music Under Soviet Rule: Ashkenazy Talks About Shostakovich Read this interview, conducted with the Russian pianist and conductor by John Stratford and John Riley in October 1991. http://www.siue.edu/~aho/musov/ash/ash.html

SHOSTAKOVICH AND THE SOVIET STATE Vladimir Ashkenazy talks about the composer Vladimir Ashkenazy was interviewed by John Stratford and John Riley in October 1991 while travelling by car to his hotel from Walthamstow Town Hall, where he had spent the day rehearsing the Eighth Symphony with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. This interview, conducted shortly before the attempted Communist coup which, backfiring, brought Boris Yeltsin to power, originally appeared in DSCH. You left the Soviet Union in 1963. Did you ever meet Shostakovich? I met him two or three times. Once I played his Trio for him with some friends of mine. He was very sweet. But he didn't make any comment. Later I found out that this wasn't very good. It probably meant he didn't like our interpretation too much! Fair enough, we were only students. But I thought we played quite well! Another time I met him at a concert, and he congratulated me; and another time I went to the first performance of his Cello Concerto, given by Rostropovich with piano accompaniment, in the Union of Soviet Composers. I shook his hand, I think. But I never met him properly. You mentioned playing the Trio. Have you played much of the piano music?

pianisten Vladimir Ashkenazy, Krebs biographie Vladimir Ashkenazy Pianist, Dirigent Geb. 1937 Gorki (RUS) Vladimir Ashkenazy war am Moskauer Konservatorium Schüler von Lew N. Oborin. Im Alter von 18 Jahren gewann er bereits einen 2. Preis beim Warschauer Chopin Wettbewerb und 1956 dann den 1. Preis beim Concours musical international Reine Elisabeth in Brüssel. Als direkte Folge dieser Auszeichnungen wurde Ashkenazy zu großen Tourneen durch Amerika und Kanada eingeladen. International bekannt wurde der Pianist, nachdem er 1962 den Tschaikowsky-Wettbewerb gewonnen hatte. 1963 zog er mit seiner Familie nach London um. Hier spielte er mit den größten Interpreten jener Zeit, André Previn und Itzhak Perlman. Mit Perlman nahm er sämtliche Sonaten für Violine und Klavier Ludwig van Beethovens auf, und für BBC spielte er Beethovens 32 Sonaten für Klavier ein. Ab 1968 wurde er zum Organisator des Festivals in Reykjavik, und er ließ sich auch in Island nieder. Sein Repertoire reichte jetzt von Mozart bis zu Schostakowitsch, behielt aber immer Chopin im Zentrum. Zunehmend griff Ashkenazy aber auch zum Dirigentenstab, wobei Tschaikowsky, Sxhostakowitsch, Prokofjew und Sibelius zu den bevorzugt umgesetzten Komponisten gehörten. Das Royal Philharmonic Orchestra holte ihn 1987 als Dirigent. Seit 1989 ist er Chefdirigent des Deutschen Symphonie-Orchesters Berlin. Seit 1982 lebt Ashkenazy in der Schweiz.

categories='cat1=music'; Artsworld links Classical Music, Jazz and Opera on Artsworld TV Biography Vladimir Ashkenazy Conductor Russia/ Iceland Born 6 Jul 1937 Vladimir Ashkenazy has often been quoted as saying that for him music is indivisible. This conviction is borne out by his passionate engagement with so many different aspects of music-making, whether as conductor, piano recitalist or chamber musician or as the architect of large-scale projects encompassing the full range of musical activities. He defected in 1963 and took Icelandic citizenship in 1972 (the country of his wife Thorunn, also a pianist), and lives in Switzerland. The first part of his long career as a musician was devoted to the piano. Building on the foundation of his studies at the Central School of Music and Moscow Conservatoire and his success in winning second prize at the Chopin Competition in Warsaw in 1955, first prize in the Queen Elizabeth Competition in Brussels in 1956 and the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1962, he spent three decades touring the great musical centres of the world, performing an ever-growing recital and concerto repertoire and appearing with chamber music partners such as Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zuckerman, Lynn Harrell, Elizabeth Soderstroem, Barbara Bonney and Matthias Goerne. In January 1998, Vladimir Ashkenazy took up the position of chief conductor of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra and since then has devoted himself to a broad range of tours, recordings and special projects with the aim of focusing appropriate attention on this great orchestra with its rich and individual musical tradition. The 1999-2000 season was an important one for them, coinciding as it did with the tenth anniversary of the 'velvet revolution', and over the coming months audiences around the world will have the opportunity to hear them in repertoire which is at the very heart of the orchestra's history and cultural identity - from Mozart and Mahler to Krasa, Janacek and Martinu - as they tour through the UK, Japan, United States and South America.

biographics music conductors Vladimir Ashkenazy biography Vladimir Ashkenazy Pianist, Conductor Born in 1937 in Gorky, (Russia). Vladimir Ashkenazy studied at Moscow State Conservatory with Lev N. Oborin. At the age of 18, he won 2nd prize at the Warsaw Chopin Competition, and in 1956, he won the Queen Elizabeth Prize in Brussels. The direct result of these successes was an invitation to tour the United States and Canada. From 1968 onwards, he became the organizer of the Reykjavik Festivals, also residing in Iceland. By now, his repertoire covered a broad spectrum from Mozart to Shostakovich, always centering however, on Chopin. Ashkenazy progressed more and more into conducting, whereby the works of the composers Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich, Prokofiev and Sibelius remained his preferred subjects. In 1987, Ashkenazy was appointed principal conductor of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and since 1989, he has been principal conductor of the German Symphony Orchestra in Berlin. Since 1982, he has been a resident of Switzerland. Ashkenazy belongs to those exponents of the performer's art, who's motivation it is to try to perform the works of the composers as they themselves felt their music should be, rather than follow his own personal ego, to quote a statement to that effect by the Berlin daily newspaper.

I feel privileged to be associated with a composer such as Prokofiev. I have felt affection and admiration for him ever since my childhood and soon after graduating from the Moscow Conservatory, I felt it was my duty to express these feelings. I gave a recital in the Small Hall of the Conservatory, playing the sixth, seventh and eighth sonatas in one evening. Richter attended and made some complimentary comments afterwards. This was a great day for me! As a pianist, I have a particularly close relationship with the eighth sonata, and find its first movement one of Prokofiev's most sincere and moving pages. As a conductor, my heart goes particularly to Romeo and Juliet and the Fifth Symphony. I wish the Serge Prokofiev Association much luck with its dedicated work and I look forward to following and supporting its progress in years to come; starting of course with Prokofiev 2003 during which I am organising a Festival at the South Bank, London, in the second half of March. Patron    Vladimir Ashkenazy has been an active exponent of Prokofiev's works and has made many recordings both as conductor and pianist. These include all the piano concertos, symphonies no.1,5,6, and 7, Symphony-Concerto for Cello, Cinderella (complete ballet and excerpts for piano solo), Overture on Jewish Themes, Autumnal Sketch for small orchestra op.8, Waltz and Scherzo from The Love for Three Oranges, Piano Sonatas no. 6, 7 and 8, pieces for piano from Romeo and Juliet, Waltz from War and Peace for solo piano and Violin Sonatas no.1 and 2.

16. Review: Vladimir Ashkenazy Conducts Sibelius: Sym. 7, Tapiola I have never thrilled to vladimir ashkenazy as a pianist. To quotea friend He has two dynamics piano and forte, that's it. I http://www.flash.net/~park29/ashkenazy.htm

a Review Sibelius, Jean: Symphony No. 7 in C, Op. 105; Tapiola, Op. 112. Philharmonia Orchestra, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Conductor Decca 411-935-2 (Digital Stereo). Recorded March 1982 at Kingsway Hall, Lond on. Currently Available on London 455-405-2 (Digital Stereo). I hadn't realized it at the time I bought this disc (actually, it was a cassette, and I later bought the disc while stationed in Germany when the tape wore out), but I was being set-up for an education in "how to properly appreciate Sibelius." I bought these superb recordings at the Camelot Music store at a mall in Lynchburg, Virginia (a seemingly most improbable place) in 1983 while driving from my parents' home in West Virginia to Alabama, to attend my Army technical school, right off Christmas furlough and right out of basic training. Prior to purchasing this cassette, I had only previously been exposed to Sibelius' Second Symphony (A 1950's RCA "Living Stereo" record of Monteux/London Symphony, which I adore to this day) and his Fourth (a symphony which I would not fully appreciate yet for a few years) and the Jenson/Ormandy Violin Concerto . I bought the tape because I admired Sibelius' Second and Violin Concerto so much. At the time, I was only familiar with Ashkenazy as pianist, so it was a curiosity to me to see him on the cover, baton in hand.
