82. Linton Music Series who has been described as the most awesome jazz pianist anywhere on Symphony Orchestrafor helping make possible the appearances of yefim bronfman, Gil Shaham http://www.wguc.org/Linton/linton_music_series.htm

Six Concerts at the First Unitarian Church 536 Linton Street, Cincinnati, OH This concert features the talents of three musicians, all with ties to the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Phillip Ruder was Concertmaster of the CSO for 21 years, and appeared as soloist with that orchestra more than 20 times. This is his 23rd consecutive season performing for the Linton audience. Both Richard Hawley and Michael Chertock are currently members of the CSO. Mr. Hawley replaced Richard Waller, Linton's Artistic Director, when he retired six years ago as principal clarinetist. The program includes Contrast, a work for violin, clarinet and piano, by Bela Bartok, and Brahms Quintet in G, Opus 111, for 2 violins, 2 violas and cello. Opus One - Ida Kavafian, violin; Steven Tenenbom, viola; Peter Wiley, cello; Anne-Marie McDermott, piano. Opus One is an inspired collaboration between four extraordinary instrumentalists, who are also close friends. Their combined resumes include membership in such prestigious chamber music groups as the Beaux Arts Trio, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, TASHI, the Guarneri Quartet, and the Orion String Quartet. Although each one of these incredibly talented musicians had performed on the Linton concert stage a number of times over the years, it was not until 1998 that the group premiered as Opus One. Six weeks after their opening at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. they appeared on the Linton Chamber Music Series. We are pleased to welcome Opus One back for our 23rd season of Music Making Among Friends.

ELIZABETH LAMBERTON During the nineteenth century, before the age of electronically produced sound, there was a strong tradition of music-making in the home. The piano became something of a home entertainment center: every household had or aspired to have one, and this, together with the sheer sociability of making music together, resulted in a thriving market for piano duets. The two-piano duet has a smaller repertoire than the one-piano duet, since it was rare to find two instruments in a single room except in concert halls, colleges of music and the homes of professional musicians and composers. Musically speaking, however, two pianos offer the most varied opportunities, because each performer has the complete range of the keyboard at his disposal, and this makes possible an element of virtuosity inhibited by the comparatively cramped position of two players at one keyboard. Today's program comprises three monuments from the rarely heard duo-piano repertoire: Variations on a Theme of Haydn and the Sonata in F Minor Op. 34bis

The management's choice then fell on Kazushi Ono, who made his successful American debut last night. Ono, chief conductor of the Tokyo Philharmonic for the last decade, was a Tanglewood conducting fellow in the summer of 1983; he is currently general music director of the opera house in Karlsruhe, Germany, where he became the first Japanese conductor to lead Wagner's complete ''Ring'' cycle. Ono doesn't have Hindemith's Konzertmusik for String and Brass, Gatti's scheduled opening gambit, in his repertory, so he substituted Kodaly's ''Dances of Galanta,'' which made an effective pairing with Bartok's Second Piano Concerto. Slight of stature, elegant of demeanor, Ono is a big, vigorous conductor who led a performance that left some dots and crosses unattended to, but they really didn't matter all that much in the colorful, brilliant, and entertaining performance. William R. Hudgins provided a spicy clarinet solo. This story ran on page D10 of the Boston Globe on 03/19/99.

he piano was by far Prokofiev's favorite instrument. He was a formidable pianist in his own right, premiering most of his works in concert halls around the world. Fortunately, many of the greatest pianists of the 20th century were drawn to Prokofiev's compositions as well. Two Russian pianists who knew Prokofiev and premiered his later piano sonatas stand tallest in the pantheon of great interpreters of Prokofiev's piano works Emil Gilels and Sviatoslav Richter. As with the great conductors of today who specialize in Prokofiev's works, there are a number of young pianists who rival the greats of yesterday. Several pianists have recently completed recording the entire Prokofiev piano cycle including Boris Berman (on Chandos), Frederic Chiu (on Harmonia Mundi), and Oleg Marshev (on Danacord). Also not to be missed is Barbara Nissman , who was the first to record the complete piano sonatas to commemorate Prokoifev's 100th birthday in 1991 her sonata cycle remains one of the towering achievements of the last twenty years for Prokofiev lovers.

With guest conductor Carlos Kalmar on the podium, Bronfman undertook one of the greatest of the great romantic concertos: Brahms' Piano Concerto No. 2, four movements' worth of richly satisfying virtuoso writing for keyboard and orchestra. And yes, Bronfman did command that big piano sound and the incredible technical alacrity for which he is famous. His titanic technique, however, was only part of the story. He also produced phrases of silky delicacy and surprising restraint, as in portions of the second movement, and carved out phrases of great melodic beauty. (So did the orchestra's principal cellist Ray Davis, in his very nice extended solo.)
