ROBERT SCHUMANN PUR

YÖRK HÖLLER – World Premiere

This year, once again, we invited a series of young talented pianists to perform their debut at the Ruhr Piano Festival. Two of them, Elena Fischer-Dieskau and Giorgi Gigashvili, are featured on the first CD of the current Vol. 41 boxed set, and they both centered their recital programmes around the great Romantic composer Robert Schumann. Our first CD thus consists of “pure Schumann.”

I was particularly thrilled that this year we were able to ensure the world premiere performance of the great York Höller’s Double Concerto for Cello, Piano and Orchestra, a work commissioned by the Ruhr Piano Festival.

Pianist Martin Helmchen and cellist Marie-Elisabeth Hecker set out with the Double Concerto on a highly successful maiden voyage at the Stadthalle Mühlheim with the Cologne Chamber Orchestra under the baton of Christoph Poppen.

That major musical event was supplemented two days later with a portrait recital by Hanni Liang, featuring piano works by York Höller from three decades of his oeuvre. Thus, our second CD offers you a fascinating overview of the output of this particularly appealing composer.

As always, I extend my heartfelt thanks to all participating artists for having agreed to participate in.
(Excerpt from the Forword of the Booklet by Franz Xaver Ohnesorg)

ROBERT SCHUMANN PUR

YÖRK HÖLLER - Uraufführung

Auch in diesem Jahr luden wir eine Reihe junger Pianisten zu ihrem Debüt beim Klavier-Festival Ruhr ein. Zwei unserer Debütanten, Elena Fischer-Dieskau und Giorgi Gigashvili, können Sie auf der ersten CD unserer CD-Box Vol. 41 kennenlernen. Beide stellten den großen romantischen Komponisten Robert Schumann in den Mittelpunkt ihrer Programme, und so erleben Sie auf der ersten CD „Schumann pur“.

Ganz besonders habe ich mich gefreut, dass wir 2022 die Uraufführung des von uns in Auftrag gegebenen Doppelkonzertes für Violoncello, Klavier und Orchester des großen York Höller realisieren konnten. Martin Helmchen und die Cellistin Marie-Elisabeth Hecker hoben dieses Werk mit dem Kölner Kammerorchester unter Christoph Poppen in der Stadthalle Mülheim überaus erfolgreich aus der Taufe.

Ergänzt wurde dieses Ereignis nur zwei Tage später durch ein Porträtkonzert, bei dem Hanni Liang Klavierwerke York Höllers aus drei Jahrzehnten vorstellte. Auf der zweiten CD können Sie somit einen hochinteressanten Einblick in das Schaffen dieses faszinierenden Komponisten gewinnen.

Her 2018 début at the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie was followed by a number of acclaimed national and international performances at Ludwigsburg Castle Concerts, at the Heidelberg Spring Festival, and at the Würzburg Mozart Festival, apart from appearing in Saint Petersburg and Beijing. She has received decisive musical influence from Maria João Pires. All these artistic experiences and encounters, along with her long-standing collaboration with composer Manfred Trojahn (leading to several world premieres) have reinforced her vision of seeking to encourage a more harmonious co-existence among human beings of all backgrounds through music.
Thus, apart from her solo appearances, Hanni Liang curates a number of artistic social projects that function on a participative basis and focus on a subject of social interest. This has led to collaborations with “Fridays for Future,” with sociologist Harald Welzer, and with concert poet Timo Brunke; furthermore, she has felt inspired to team up with TONALi, the Hamburg art project, to ensure the formation of the TONALiSTEN collective. In 2022, Hanni Liang presented a project for the fourth time at the Ruhr Piano Festival.

Giorgi Gigashvili (piano)

Born in Tbilisi, Georgia in 2000, Giorgi Gigashvili took his first piano lessons without ever thinking about becoming a professional pianist. Instead, his passion was singing and arranging Georgian folk tunes and pop songs.

The year 2021 brought further stimulus, confirming his vocation as a Classical pianist: the Hortense Anda-Bührle Advancement Prize at the 15th Géza Anda Competition in Zurich, which brought him an invitation to perform at the KlavierOlymp in the German town of Bad Kissingen, where Gigashvili went on to win 1st Prize and the Audience Prize.
That same year he relocated in Geneva, where he entered the piano class of Nelson Goerner. Gigashvili is supported by Martha Argerich for his studies in Geneva, by the Lisa Batiashvili Foundation, and by the Géza Anda Foundation. 2022 was the year he first performed at the Ruhr Piano Festival.

Composer(s)

Robert Schumann

Robert Schumann was a German composer and influential music critic. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era. Schumann left the study of law, intending to pursue a career as a virtuoso pianist. He had been assured by his teacher Friedrich Wieck that he could become the finest pianist in Europe, but a hand injury ended this dream. Schumann then focused his musical energies on composing. Schumann's published compositions were written exclusively for the piano until 1840; he later composed works for piano and orchestra; many Lieder (songs for voice and piano); four symphonies; an opera; and other orchestral, choral, and chamber works. Works such as Carnaval, Symphonic Studies, Kinderszenen, Kreisleriana, and the Fantasie in...

Schumann's published compositions were written exclusively for the piano until 1840; he later composed works for piano and orchestra; many Lieder (songs for voice and piano); four symphonies; an opera; and other orchestral, choral, and chamber works. Works such as Carnaval, Symphonic Studies, Kinderszenen, Kreisleriana, and the Fantasie in C are among his most famous. His writings about music appeared mostly in the Neue Zeitschrift für Musik (New Journal for Music), a Leipzig-based publication which he jointly founded.
In 1840, Schumann married Friedrich Wieck's daughter Clara, against the wishes of her father, following a long and acrimonious legal battle, which found in favour of Clara and Robert. Clara also composed music and had a considerable concert career as a pianist, the earnings from which, before her marriage, formed a substantial part of her father's fortune.
Schumann suffered from a mental disorder, first manifesting itself in 1833 as a severe melancholic depressive episode, which recurred several times alternating with phases of ‘exaltation’ and increasingly also delusional ideas of being poisoned or threatened with metallic items. After a suicide attempt in 1854, Schumann was admitted to a mental asylum, at his own request, in Endenich near Bonn. Diagnosed with "psychotic melancholia", Schumann died two years later in 1856 without having recovered from his mental illness.

York Höller

York Höller was born 1944 in Leverkusen. He studied composition (with Zimmermann and Eimert), piano (Alfons Kontarsky) and orchestral conducting in Cologne, as well as musicology and philosophy. He also owes important impul- ses to the Darmstadt Summer Courses, particularly Boulez’s analysis seminars. In 1971 Stockhausen invited him to the Electronic Studio of the West German Radio (WDR). During the following years, Höller attained international renown with compositions that melted instrumental- vocal and computer-generated sounds. From the mid 1960s, he worked at IRCAM, and it was also in Paris that his opera The Master and Margarita (after Bulgakov) was premiered in 1989.

From 1991 to 1999 he was artistic director of the new WDR Studio for Electronic Music. He was appointed Professor of Composition at the “Hanns Eisler” College in Berlin, as well as at the Cologne College of Music. Höller has received numerous international commissions, scholarships (Cité des Arts, Villa Massimo), and awards (Bernd Alois Zimmermann Prize of the City of Cologne, Promotion Prize of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, Prize of the International Composers’ Forum of the UNESCO, Rolf Liebermann Prize for Opera Composers, Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition), and has been invited to give lectures and courses in Europe and America. In 1986 he was named Chevalier dans l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of the French Republic. He is a member of the Academies of the Arts in Berlin and Hamburg. In his compositions, Höller explores serial, aleatoric and stochastic methods, and takes up impulses from philosophy and information science. His concept of “Gestalt composition”, which also owes to Asian or medieval music, serves as the basis of a highly personal musical language that combines subjective impulse and rational control, construction and sensuousness of sound.
