String Quartet No. 11 in F minor, Op. 122I. Introduction: AndantinoII. Scherzo: AllegrettoIII. Recitative: AdagioIV. Etude: AllegroV. Humoresque: AllegroVI. Elegy: AdagioVII. Finale: ModeratoComposer: Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975)Ensemble: Borodin QuartetWritten in 1966World Premiere: May 28, 1966 at Glinka Concert Hall, Leningrad with the Beethoven QuartetShostakovich's Eleventh Quartet was written in January 1966 in memory of the composer's old friend and colleague Vasily Shirinsky who had died in the previous year. Shirinsky had been second violinist of the Beethoven Quartet, who had premiered all Shostakovich's previous quartets and also -- together with the composer -- his Piano Quintet.This work is sometimes described as the beginning of Shostakovich's late style, with its shifting and enigmatic harmonies and a feeling of elegiac elusiveness. Nonetheless it is still an accessibly lyrical piece with touching moments of great sweetness and notable passages of whimsy and humour, almost as though the composer were remembering sharing a joke with the musician whose memory is here being celebrated.The form is fascinating, a sequence of seven contrasted episodes each of which grows out the previous one, like a flower unfolding and revealing more and more of itself. Shostakovich even gives each episode a title. The opening 'Introduction' melts into a curious little 'Scherzo' with striking whoops and leaps in the melody. A violent 'Recitative' introduces a scrap of funeral chant which also reappears in the next two movements, an 'Etude' and a 'Humoresque', the latter with an unusually prominent part for the second violin, a tribute to Shirinsky's old position in the original Beethoven Quartet. An 'Elegy' for Shirinsky follows, a real funeral march and still with echoes of the chant. The wistful 'Finale' recalls earlier music including the whoops from the 'Scherzo' and, of course, the same forlorn scrap of funeral chant. http://www.boosey.com/cr/music/Dmitri-Shostakovich-String-Quartet-No-11-in-F-minor/4565&langid=1 [ More Detail ]

i recently learned this song. it took me about 4 weeks to learn and i finished learning it about a week ago. so i haven't had much practice but thats pretty good as far as i'm concerned for only playing it for 5 weeks. my mom is even more impressed than i am because she doesn't listen to that type of music. especially not that band so she can't tell when i miss notes.i'll post a better version when i can after i get more practice in. looks like i need to fix the closet door again.

Vianna da Motta was one of Liszt's last pupils, and at the time of his death in 1948 was the last remaining Liszt pupil. He was a Portuguese pianist who, after Liszt died, and after a period associated with von Bulow, joined the circle of pianists centred around Ferrucio Busoni in Berlin. He was a renowned pianist and teacher in his native Portugal, as well as teaching in Geneva after the first world war, but was essentially little-known outside Portugal due to a lack of an international concerting career and very few recordings being made by him.His style is noticeably more "modern" than that of the other Liszt pupils. All of his studio recordings come from 1928. This is a recording of a work by Busoni, the Elegy no.4 based on material from his opera, Turandot. [ More Detail ]
"Painting relates to both art and life. Neither can be made. (I try to act in that gap between the two.)"-- Robert Rauschenberg, 1959Elegy for Robert Rauschenberg is an homage to an artist who was my personal hero, and my nemesis, in my student years. He was my hero because of the infallibility of his touch, and the constancy of his ability to invent and re-invent the potency and power of visual art — to push the boundaries of what art could be. He was my nemesis because I saw him as pure genius and his every gesture as perfection — conditions that were not, I thought, possible for others to attain. But my joy and delight in his work continued and my pleasure in talking with him from time to time over the years was enormous.Curated by Paul Schimmel, Robert Rauchenberg: Combines was shown in early 2006 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. On seeing it there, and upon learning that there were no plans to film it, I asked Bob for permission to do so at the next venue, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.This elegy is dedicated to the memory of Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) and to the memory of his friendship with my late husband, Earle Brown (1926-2002), whose music has been intertwined and juxtaposed here with images of the glorious Combines.Susan Sollins-BrownExecutive DirectorArt21Elegy for Robert Rauschenberg has been created from footage filmed by Art21 at The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles during the 2006 exhibition of Robert Rauschenberg: Combines. Among the works seen in whole or in part are Minutiae (1954); Interview (1955); Monogram (1955-59); Canyon (1959); Gift for Apollo (1959); Black Market (1961); Empire II (1961); Pantomime (1961); Ace (1962); and Gold Standard (1964). The video is set to music composed by Earle Brown who, along with Rauschenberg, was a member of a small group of friends in the 1950s that included John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Morton Feldman, Jasper Johns, and Christian Wolff, among others. In the spirit of that long-ago friendship, and in the collaborative spirit of that time and group, excerpts from the following works by Brown have been selected and collaged, with permission of The Earle Brown Music Foundation, for this video: Music for Violin, Cello, &Piano (1952); Octet I (1953); Folio and 4 Systems (1954); String Quartet (1965); New Piece (1971); and Special Events (1999).VIDEO | Producer: Susan Sollins. Camera: Bob Elfstrom. Sound: Ray Day. Editor: Lizzie Donahue.
