O R T H We are pleased to welcome you to the 38th season of Cliburn Concerts! Fort Worth is fortunate to have amazing cultural venues such as Bass Performance Hall, the Kimbell Art Museum, and the Modern Art Museum, and it is our pleasure to bring some of the finest classical artists performing today to fill these beautiful halls with timeless music.

The Cliburn’s mission is to share excellent classical music with the largest audience possible—across cultural, economic, and geographic boundaries. This year we continue to add to the ways people can experience this art, both in our community and around the world.

Locally, this means several new partnerships to offer diverse and accessible programming. We are working with the Live Oak Music Hall & Lounge to present Cliburn Sessions: three classically-focused concerts in a relaxed, casual environment. We are also expanding our Cliburn in the Community program to provide more free concerts in public gathering places, such as Sundance Square Plaza and the Fort Worth Central Library. Our music education program, which now will reach 48,000 elementary students in schools every year, is partnering with Performing Arts Fort Worth’s Children’s Education Program to develop and produce a brand new presentation about the life of Van Cliburn at Bass Hall for all FWISD 4th graders in fall 2014.

Internationally, our 2013 winners are performing recital, chamber, and concerto engagements around the globe, reaching hundreds of thousands. And, for the first time, we will be webcasting a selection of our Cliburn Concerts—Beatrice Rana (Sept. 30) and the John Giordano Tribute (April 7)—live from Bass Hall.

Please enjoy this remarkable season, and join us for some of our other offerings throughout the year—including the inaugural Cliburn International Junior Piano Competition and Festival at TCU in June. None of this could be accomplished without your patronage and support, and we thank you.

Best wishes,

Carla Kemp Thompson

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Thank you for joining us for the 2014–2015 Cliburn Concerts season, the premier recital series in DFW. We warmly welcome the great artists of the world to North Texas for these intimate performances—a refuge from a busy world that offers a pure connection with our fellow audience members, the artists, and the music. We invite you to allow it to speak to you through these finely-trained and consummate ambassadors, who are—as described by Van Cliburn—but its witnesses and messengers.

We open the year at Bass Hall with 2013 Cliburn Silver Medalist Beatrice Rana, whose success in Fort Worth last year took an already promising career to a new level. It’s fitting that we welcome Beatrice—who also won the 2013 Audience Award from online voters—back to Bass Hall by making her recital the first ever Cliburn Concerts performance to be webcast. People from across the world will be able to watch live and, after the concert, on demand in perpetuity.

Denis Matsuev won the Tchaikovsky Competition in 1998 and has since become one of the preeminent pianists in the world. He’ll make his Fort Worth debut here in February with a big, mostly-Russian program. And what better way to celebrate John Giordano’s 40 years of service to the Cliburn as jury chairman than by bringing 8 medalists from the 11 competitions over which he presided to perform on one special night, which will also be webcast.

The Kimbell’s new Piano Pavilion auditorium is a stunning place to hear music, and we’ve coupled it with high-end, exceptional soloists in voice, violin, and piano. The chamber music atmosphere provides for a completely different concert experience for us all to enjoy.

Finally, we are proud to be back at the Modern with a series of exceptional composers. Moderated by Buddy Bray, these concerts are unique occasions to listen to great music while also learning about its origination and vision directly from the composer.

We look forward to seeing you and talking about music, life, and the things that make our society and our city a better place to live.

The Board of Directors of the Cliburn salutes with gratitude the generosity of the

SID W. RICHARDSON FOUNDATION

for supporting the performance of

BEaTRiCE Rana

BEATRICE RANA pianoFor performances heralded as “intensely personalized music-making” (Dallas Morning News) with “an electrical current running through virtually every measure,” (Cleveland Plain Dealer), 21-year-old Italian pianist Beatrice Rana drew mass attention during the 2013 Cliburn Competition, capturing second prize, as well as the Audience Award. Since then, she continues to build a reputation for sophisticated interpretations of emotional depth, prompting Gramophone magazine to proclaim that she “possesses an old soul that belies her 20 years, and more than a touch of genius.”

In the 2014–2015 season, Ms. Rana makes orchestra debuts with the Los Angeles Philharmonic with Bernard Labadie, Detroit Symphony with Jun Märkl, and the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in Zürich with Zubin Mehta at the International Music Festival of the Orpheum Foundation for Advancement of Young Soloists. In the United States, a recital tour will take her to the Kennedy Center (under the auspices of Washington Performing Arts), Spivey Hall, Cliburn Concerts, the Gilmore, and Lied Center of Kansas, among others. Internationally, she has been invited to Wigmore Hall, the Auditorium du Louvre, Zürich’s Tonhalle, Hamburg’s Laeiszhalle, Filharmonica della Scala, RAI Symphony, Accademia di Santa Cecilia, the Hong Kong Sinfonietta, and the Orchestre Philharmonique de Liège. A prizewinner many times over, Ms. Rana first attracted international attention at age 18 when she won first prize and all special prizes at the Montreal International Musical Competition in 2011. She was named “One to Watch” by International Piano magazine in 2013 just before her Cliburn appearance, and her artistry was highlighted again in the magazine’s “30 under 30” list in 2014. She has previously been invited to several festivals around the world, including Ferrara Musica, La Folle Journée, La Roque d’Antherón, Klavier Festival Ruhr, Lanaudière, Radio-France in Montpellier, Rencontres Musicales d’Evian, Piano aux Jacobins International Piano Festival in Toulouse, and Toronto Summer Music Festivals.

Partita No. 1 in B-flat Major, BWV 825JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACHB. 1685 (Eisenach, Germany)D. 1750 (Leipzig, Germany)

•Thesixpartitasarethefinalsetofsuites Bach wrote and contain the most difficult and varied writing of his keyboard suites.

•Partitas are composed of fouressential dance movements: allemande (slow), courante or corrente (fast), sarabande (slow), and gigue (fast), with an optional dance between the sarabande and gigue, and an opening movement.

•The First Partita is an audiencefavorite—charming and graceful, with a lyrical Italianate flow throughout all six movements.

Bach composed three sets of keyboard suites; the final set, whose six suites are titled “partitas,” contains the most difficult and varied works. They were written separately between 1726 and 1731, and were then gathered up in the first of four volumes Bach published under the collective title, Clavier-Übung, or Keyboard Practice.

Like Bach’s earlier sets (the six French Suites and the six English Suites), most of the six Partitas have four essential slow/fast/slow/fast dances: allemande, courante or corrente, sarabande, and gigue, plus an optional dance between the sarabande and gigue. While the six French Suites begin directly with

the allemande, Bach added lengthy preludes to the six English Suites and comparable opening movements under various titles to the six Partitas. A consistently charming work, the Partita No. 1 is the most accessible of the set and an audience favorite. It opens with a stately prelude; followed by the expected allemande, corrente, and sarabande; a delightful pair of minuets; and the concluding gigue, marked by a dazzling array of hand-crossing technique. This final movement strongly reminds the listener of Bach’s Italian contemporary, Domenico Scarlatti. There is also a lyrical Italianate flow to the music throughout all six movements of the partita, as well as an appealing harmonic profile. The ornamentation is gracefully subsumed into the general melodic line, and the overt dance movements are cheerful and lively. Sonata No. 2 in B-flat Minor, op. 35FRÉDÉRIC CHOPINB. 1810 (Zelazowa Wola, Poland)D. 1849 (Paris, France)

•Chopin’s Second Sonata is hismost famous, centered around the well-known funeral march.

•Controversialforitsfourradicallydifferent movements, modern scholars now view the sonata as innovative, with Chopin blending his own small forms (nocturnes and waltzes) into the larger design of a Classical-era sonata.

•The Second Sonata is unifiedby a dark opening motto, which appears in various guises throughout the movements. Pensive lyrical episodes alternate with passionate, restless movements.

Chopin’s Second Piano Sonata of 1839 is the most famous of his three works in that form. Its fame centered upon the controversy aroused by the celebrated funeral march in its slow third movement. Schumann heard the sonata and declared in one of his critical essays that the funeral march was out of context with the rest of the sonata, since it had been written two years before the remaining three movements. Indeed, Schumann went so far as to call the four movements of the sonata “four unruly children living in the same family.”

While 19th-century critics and commentators echoed Schumann’s sentiments, modern musical scholars take a more positive view of this innovative work, hailing Chopin’s dramatic alterations of musical forms he inherited from the past. They cite the unifying force of the sonata’s dark opening motto, which appears in various related guises in succeeding movements. And they call attention to the pensive lyrical interludes that alternate with the sonata’s passionate movements. In sum, modern commentators consider that Chopin blended his own small forms—nocturnes and lyrical waltz interludes common to the Romantic era—into the larger design of the four-movement sonata inherited from the late Classical era.

Chopin may have taken his cue from Beethoven, who included a funeral march in his Sonata in A-flat Major, op. 26—a work Chopin played and taught to several of his piano students. But the positive spirit that wells up through the music of many Beethoven sonatas is replaced by the troubled, alienated spirit of a typical Romantic artist in much of Chopin’s Second Sonata. After the somber, slow introduction, much of the opening movement is dominated by the restless principal theme, set in strong contrast to the lyrical subsidiary theme. The Scherzo is brighter in nature, with its central trio section relaxing into a song-like mood. The funeral march is again dark and somber, with a poetic Chopin nocturne to lighten the central portion of the movement. The brief finale, a windswept flurry of running octaves, is the sonata’s most remarkable movement, echoing the spirit of the composer’s famed “Winter Wind” Etude composed nearly a decade earlier.

Sonata No. 6 in A Major, op. 82SERGEI PROKOFIEVB. 1891 (Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine)D. 1953 (Moscow, Russia)

•During the years after the SovietRevolution, Prokofiev lived abroad, but gradually resettled in the Soviet Union in the late 1930s.

•In the decade after his return,Prokofiev was prolific, writing some of his greatest master pieces, including the Sixth Sonata, which was begun in 1940.

PROGRAM NOTEScontinued

•The work bears many traitscommon to Prokofiev’s mature music: the large-scale Romantic sonata serves as a foundation, and is marked by Prokofiev’s distinct acerbic style.

Like many prominent Russians, Sergei Prokofiev lived abroad, mainly in France and the United States, during the years following the Soviet Revolution. However, he gradually resettled in the Soviet Union during the latter half of the 1930s. The decade after his return witnessed some of his greatest masterpieces: the ballets, Cinderella and Romeo and Juliet; the Fifth Symphony; the opera, War and Peace; and the Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Piano Sonatas. Reportedly, Prokofiev began work simultaneously in 1940 on all three piano sonatas, but soon postponed completion of the latter two while he finished the Sixth Sonata. The work bears many traits common to Prokofiev’s mature music: it is founded upon the ground plan of many large 19th-century sonatas, but stylistic traits of Romantic music are caught up in an acerbic manner of musical expression that mirrored Prokofiev’s sharp-tempered personality. Suggestions of the A-minor and A-major triads are tartly crushed together in a motto theme that is repeatedly hammered into the first two pages of the opening movement. Eventually, this gives way to a lyrical, arching theme reminiscent of the shining, transparent passages

spread here and there in the score to Cinderella. The two themes are combined in a pointed development section, until the return of the opening theme announces a compressed recapitulation and coda. A cantering pace, spiked by a light staccato manner, sets the gently sardonic Allegretto in motion. The movement serves as a substitute for a traditional minuet or scherzo, replete with a contrasting trio section in the middle. The slow movement takes the form of pensive waltz, again reminding one of comparable pieces in Prokofiev’s two ballets. It is the most Romantic movement in the sonata, and there are several contrasting verses and refrains that bring back the main theme. A long central episode takes on the character of a free fantasia, and the final return of the main theme brings the movement to an imposing climax. The closing rondo moves at a breathless pace, with its theme and contrasting episodes relentlessly chasing each other. The motto theme of the sonata’s first movement makes a dramatic return in the middle section, and later makes a final, brief reappearance to conclude the entire work.

WILL COURTNEY

Fort Worth native Will Courtney has shown a lifelong commitment to his hometown, from his time as a student at Lily B. Clayton Elementary to a successful career in real estate investment. As owner of Courtney & Courtney Properties, he manages shopping centers and business properties in Fort Worth, Dallas, and Colorado Springs. He also developed a deep love for classical music, inspired by his uncle, Will R. Allen.

When he purchased a home on Crestline Road across from River Crest Country Club in 1999, he and his wife Esther originally intended to make it their residence. But plans changed, and then-Cliburn Chairman Alann Bedford Sampson approached her childhood friend Will about using it to house some Van Cliburn Foundation furniture and artwork that had been displaced by an office move. The Courtneys were happy to help.

Will later moved a Steinway concert grand with a special history into the home. He had purchased the Van Cliburn-signed piano from Van himself; under Van’s ownership, it had resided at the Kimbell Art Museum, where he encouraged TCU students to come and play it to keep it from sitting dormant.

The addition of the piano began a unique and meaningful association between the Cliburn and what is now lovingly referred to as the “Courtney House.” As the 2001 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition approached, the Cliburn asked the Courtneys if competitors could use it as a practice space. Since that time, they have graciously opened the home for visiting Cliburn Concerts artists throughout the years, and competitors quadrennially. Cliburn Artistic Consultant Shields-Collins Bray says Cliburn visiting artists are always taken aback to find such a nice piano there, and that they are always charmed to know that it belonged to Van. “The Courtney House is a wonderful place to rehearse: the furnishings are beautiful, and the memorabilia is so much fun for visitors to see. It’s most important utility for the Cliburn is as a place for young pianists to connect in the language they all share.”

After 14 years of allowing the Cliburn to use his Crestline home, which now also houses former Chairman Phyllis Tilley’s piano, Will says he looks forward to many more years of classical music filling it. In Will’s words, “come on over, it’s here for all to enjoy.” Some of his favorite memories include documentaries being filmed there, and Joyce Yang—who he later invited to perform for his 70th Birthday at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs—using it for rehearsal.

Our heartfelt gratitude to Will and Esther, who generously personify Fort Worth’s trademark hospitality.

IMAGINE. EXPLORE.

CREATE.From the most brilliant brushstrokes to the

highest soaring arias, all great art begins

with a budding artist. It rests in a place where

creative minds are nurtured.Where inspiration and

imagination are cultivated. The University of Texas

at Arlington is just such a place. We recognize

potential and guide it from that early spark of talent

into lifelong passion. That’s what makes us a beacon

of artistic expression. Learn more at www.uta.edu.
