New beginnings

Wij hebben van vele muziekliefhebbers begrepen dat zij uitkeken naar de restart van Momentos de Musica na enkele jaren coronablokkade. Velen hebben genoten van de concerten op 10 februari van Duo Black&White Keys (piano & marimba) en op 1 en 2 april van Trio Rodin (viool, cello, piano)  in Villa “El Nido”. 

De nieuwe formule is uitgekristalliseerd: op zaterdag middag en op zondagmiddag steeds 1 huiskamer concert met slechts ca. 35 gasten in de ruime patio van villa “El Nido” in Javea. Beide concerten dezelfde formule met open bar gedurende de inloop, pauze en meet & greet. Catering en ondersteunende bediening verzorgen een soepje in de pauze en een vers gemaakt hapje tijdens de meet & greet. 

De muziek is zaterdag en zondag hetzelfde, evenals, -conform de traditie sinds 2014 van Momentos de Musica-, de muziek steeds door getalenteerde professionele musici wordt vertolkt.

Trio Rodin

The Rodin Trio, one of the young groups with the most projection in the chamber music scene, was born in 2011 in the city of Utrecht (Holland) with the desire to forge a common project from three different personalities. Critically acclaimed for their expressive power and their communicative performances with the public, the Rodin Trio is unanimously awarded first prize in the “XI Montserrat Alavedra Chamber Music Contest” (Terrassa, Spain). In addition, they receive the prestigious “Storiani Festival Prijs” from the members of the Trio Storioni themselves, as well as the Audience Award at the “Who’s next?, International Competition”, both held in the Netherlands. On the other hand, they are also awarded in different national and international competitions. His repertoire covers a very extensive range of styles, from Classicism to the most current music. This interest in the music of our days has led them to be the recipients of several newly created works by young promises, premiering them thanks to the “Call for composers” project. In addition to receiving advice from great personalities, they have worked together with the Trio di Parma at the “Scuola Superiore Internazionale di musica da camera del Trio di Trieste” in Duino, Italy. Regarding its concert activity, the Rodin Trio has performed in some of the most prestigious auditoriums in Europe (“Concertgebouw” in Amsterdam, National Auditorium in Madrid, Palau de la Música in Barcelona and Valencia), and in the most recognized Festivals such as the “Grachtenfestival” (Amsterdam), “Monteleón Chamber Music Festival” (Spain), “Kilkenny Music Festival” (Ireland), “Gaudeamus Muziekweek” (Utrecht). His music has been broadcast by “Radio Nacional de España” (RNE), “Catalunya Música”, “Radio4” (Holland), “France Musique” (France), “WDR” (Germany), as well as by “RAI”. italian. His recording debut with the Italian label OnClassical (“Enrique Granados: Chamber music with piano”), has been a brilliant success with excellent reviews, receiving the Gold Medal at the “Global Music Awards” in the United States, as well as appearing among the 5 best record proposals of the year. It has also been selected by the record company “NAXOS” as one of the most attractive albums, and nominated for the “Enderrock Awards” for best Classical Music album. They have recently been selected as the only chamber music group within the prestigious “Circuitos FestClásica”.

The Latin term “memento” means “remembrance.” There are many Spanish composers who enjoy great fame and recognition, such as Albéniz, Falla, Granados, Turina,… But today we want to take a trip back in time to rediscover and remember other great composers who left a legacy of incalculable value, but who they were not lucky that their works endured over time. Enrique Granados, one of the best and most well-known Spanish composers of all time, wrote these Spanish Dances in his youth, and they constitute a great contribution to the Spanish nationalist music of the s. XIX. The Oriental is a slow dance full of lyricism where the left hand draws a heartfelt accompaniment, while the right sings the main melancholic melody. La Andaluza, the best known of all, has a certain flamenco atmosphere due to the fact that the left hand makes a kind of dotted pattern reminiscent of strumming the guitar. Granados composed his Piano trio op. 50 in 1895 after studying in Paris for several years. It is a work full of freshness, fantasy, purity and luminosity, with numerous elements of French influence. In the first movement, the imitative game between the three instruments and the wide and generous melodic lines stand out. The Scherzo breathes dance airs and plays with the pizzicatti of the strings and the staccatti of the piano, giving special relevance to the rhythmic content; in a second section, the air of popular music takes center stage with a brilliant imitation of the bagpipe’s snare, which precedes an interlude where the piano plays with a Moorish air that prepares a finale full of rhythm and sympathy. In contrast, the Duetto is the most intimate and sentimental part of the work, featuring a dialogue between violin and cello. Finally, the dance and the popular elements return to the score in a brilliant finale that demands a great understanding of the performers. Despite the fact that Trio No. 1 op. 3 is one of the first works by Lluís Benejam, it is a mature score, of considerable dimensions and great intensity. His long experience as a violinist in chamber and symphonic ensembles allowed him to start a career as a composer – now over 35 years old – without going through “youthful works”. The work is structured in four movements and presents an optimistic and romantic general character. Francesc Civil, a composer trained at the Escolania de Montserrat and at the prestigious “Schola Cantorum” in Paris, was a great figure in the field of sardanístic composition, but he also left us a great legacy in other genres. As a pianist, he was part of a trio for which he surely wrote this wonderful and captivating “Piano Trio” that we will listen to today. It is a work full of lyricism, poetry and beauty, although it is also full of enthusiasm and joy, especially in the last movement, a sardana.

Spanish original text:

El Trío Rodin, uno de los grupos jóvenes con más proyección en el panorama musical camerístico, nace en 2011 en la ciudad de Utrecht (Holanda) con el deseo de forjar un proyecto común a partir de tres personalidades distintas. Aclamados por la crítica por su fuerza expresiva y sus interpretaciones comunicativas con el público, el Trío Rodin es galardonado por unanimidad con el primer premio en el “XI Concurso de Música de Cámara Montserrat Alavedra” (Terrassa, España). Además, reciben de manos de los propios miembros del Trio Storioni el prestigioso “Storioni Festival Prijs”, así como el Premio del Público en el “Who´s next?, International Competition”, ambos celebrados en Holanda. Por otro lado, también son premiados en distintos certámenes nacionales e internacionales. Su repertorio abarca un abanico de estilos muy extenso, desde el Clasicismo hasta la música más actual. Este interés por la música de nuestros días les ha llevado a ser los destinatarios de varias obras de nueva creación por parte de jóvenes promesas, estrenándolas gracias al proyecto “Call for composers”. Además de recibir consejos de grandes personalidades, han trabajado junto al Trio di Parma en la “Scuola Superiore Internazionale di musica da camera del Trio di Trieste” en Duino, Italia. En cuanto a su actividad concertística, el Trío Rodin ha actuado en algunos de los auditorios más prestigiosos de Europa (“Concertgebouw” de Ámsterdam, Auditorio Nacional de Madrid, Palau de la Música de Barcelona y Valencia), y en los Festivales más reconocidos como el “Grachtenfestival” (Ámsterdam), “Festival de Música de Cámara Monteleón” (España), “Festival de Música de Kilkenny” (Irlanda), “Gaudeamus Muziekweek” (Utrecht). Su música ha sido retransmitida por “Radio Nacional de España” (RNE), “Catalunya Música”, “Radio4” (Holanda), “France Musique” (Francia), “WDR” (Alemania), así como por la “RAI” italiana. Su debut discográfico con el sello italiano OnClassical (“Enrique Granados: Chamber music with piano”), ha tenido un éxito fulgurante con excelentes críticas, recibiendo la Medalla de Oro en los “Global Music Awards” de Estados Unidos, además de figurar entre las 5 mejores propuestas discográficas del año. También ha sido seleccionado por la casa discográfica “NAXOS” como uno de los discos más atractivos, y nominado a los “Premios Enderrock” como mejor disco de Música Clásica. Recientemente han sido seleccionados como único grupo de música de cámara dentro los prestigiosos “Circuitos FestClásica”.

El término latino “memento” significa “recuerdo”. Son muchos los compositores españoles que gozan de una gran fama y reconocimiento, como Albéniz, Falla, Granados, Turina,… Pero hoy queremos hacer un viaje al pasado para redescubrir y recordar otros grandes compositores que dejaron un legado de un valor incalculable, pero que no tuvieron la suerte de que sus obras perdurasen en el tiempo. Enrique Granados, uno de los mejores y más conocidos compositores españoles de todos los tiempos, escribió estas Danzas Españolas en su época de juventud, y constituyen una gran aportación a la música nacionalista española del s. XIX. La Oriental, es una danza lenta llena de lirismo donde la mano izquierda dibuja un sentido acompañamiento, mientras que la derecha entona la melancólica melodía principal. La Andaluza, la más conocida de todas, tiene cierto clima flamenco debido a que la mano izquierda hace una especie de punteado que recuerda el rasgueo de la guitarra. Granados compuso su Piano trio op. 50 en 1895 tras estudiar en París durante varios años. Es una obra llena de frescura, fantasía, pureza y luminosidad, con numerosos elementos de influencia francesa. En el primer movimiento destaca el juego imitativo entre los tres instrumentos y las líneas melódicas amplias y generosas. El Scherzo respira aires de danza y juega con los pizzicatti de la cuerda y los staccatti del piano dando especial relevancia al contenido rítmico; en una segunda sección, el aire de música popular toma protagonismo con una brillante imitación del bordón de la gaita, que precede a un interludio donde el piano juega con un aire morisco que prepara un final lleno de ritmo y simpatía. En contraste, el Duetto es la parte más íntima y sentimental de la obra, protagonizada por un diálogo entre el violín y el violonchelo. Finalmente, la danza y los elementos populares vuelven a la partitura en un final brillante que exige una gran compenetración de los intérpretes . A pesar de que el Trío nº 1 op. 3 es una de las primeras obras de Lluís Benejam, se trata de una partitura madura, de dimensiones considerables y de gran intensidad. Su larga experiencia como violinista en formaciones de cámara y sinfónicas le permitió comenzar una carrera como compositor -ya con más de 35 años – sin pasar por las «obras de juventud». La obra se estructura en cuatro movimientos y presenta un carácter general optimista y romántico. Francesc Civil, compositor formado en la Escolanía de Montserrat y en la prestigiosa “Schola Cantorum” de París, fue una gran figura en el campo de la composición sardanística, pero también nos dejó un gran legado en otros géneros. Como pianista, formó parte de un trío para el que seguramente escribió este maravilloso y cautivador “Trio con piano” que hoy escucharemos. Es una obra llena de lirismo, poesía y belleza, aunque también cargada de entusiasmo y alegría, sobretodo en el último movimiento, una sardana.

This month we are proud to welcome ‘Duo Aria’, this special duo consists of Lola Smolokowski (pianist) and Nadia Kashaeva (mezzo-soprano). Since the concert will take place inside of the beautiful Villa El Nido places are limited, which is why we chose to host two concerts in a row: on the 24th and the 25th of September. Some of you might remember Nadia’s wonderful performance last year, when Peter Neeteson accompanied her on the piano. This year she will perform in ‘Duo Aria’ and will be accompanied by Lola.

Lola Smolokowski

When she turned 18 she moved to Europe to improve her skills even further. In those years she won awards in several competitions in France, Italy and Switzerland.

Performing with a symphonic orchestra is something she has always loved and during her years of studying at the Geneva Conservatory she found another passion: chamber music and accompaniment of vocalists.

Приобщитесь к классической музыке вместе с Momentos de Música

Два известных русских музыканта играют 12 и 13 марта в зале Matinee House
Концерты на вилле El Nido в городе Хавеа: выступает пианист Всеволод Дворкин из Милана и виолончелистка Ольга Котченкова из Берлина/Валенсии (член известного оркестра Дворца искусств имени королевы Софии/Оперы Валенсии).

_DSF1621 (1)
Momentos de Música – это проект, начало которому было положено 1,5 года назад Петером Неетесоном для того, чтобы собрать вместе ценителей музыки из разных стран на вилле El Nido с садом в Хавее, чтобы в приятной компании наслаждаться хорошей музыкой в сопровождении изысканных вин и превосходных блюд. В уютном интерьере виллы, где царит расслабленная и приятная атмосфера, представители всех национальностей могут пообщаться друг с другом и с музыкантами. В зале виллы могут разместиться до 50 гостей, а в саду — до 80.
Momentos de Música всегда организует концерты с приемом, в ходе которого публика может пообщаться с музыкантами, и где свежеприготовленные блюда, входящие в стоимость билета, подаются официантами, так что гостям нет необходимости стоять в очереди в буфет. А о бесплатном баре мы упомянули?
В прошлом году многие известные музыканты дали концерты на вилле и на сцене в саду: прошлой весной здесь играл дуэт фортепиано и виолончели (голландец Адриан ван Донген, прикрепленный к Консерватории Валенсии вместе с Карлосом Апелланисом), затем — ансамбль из семи музыкантов (скрипки, вVsevolod-Dvorkin-H3B&Wиолончель, бас, арфа, кларнет, флейта) из знаменитого оркестра дворца искусств имени королевы Софии/Оперы Валенсии. В сентябре 2015 года состоялся концерт в уникальном формате, где семь профессиональных музыкантов из нашего региона выступали каждый в течение 15 минут: фортепиано-флейта (Кальп), фортепианный дуэт (Бенидорм), гитара (Хавеа), фортепиано/орган-скрипка (Дения), фортепиано/орган меццо-сопрано (Хавеа), фортепиано/органное соло (Хавеа).
Трио Sefardo Espagnol (гитара, скрипка, меццо-сопрано) также дало здесь великолепный концерт традиционной сефардской музыки, который был прекрасно принят аудиторией.

Video: Impression of Garden Concerts June -filmed from a drone

The Arteunita Ensemble, usually performing at the famous Opera House of Valencia, the Palau de les Arts Reine Sofia, visited Jávea for two Momentos de Música concerts. Two beautiful days with 160 people that came out to enjoy these 8 top-level musicians, filling the garden with romantic classical chamber music. Surrounded by truly beautiful acoustics we enjoyed various combinations of viola, violin, cello, bass, clarinet, flute and harp.

Of course the ensemble played The Swan by Saint-Saën on the cello and harp. The ambiance was something special, everything went quiet and still, with the exception of a bird or two that seem to hum along with the music coming from the garden. Sharing these types of moments with our many international guests accompanied by cava, wines and good food is what forms the base of Momentos de Música, a unique atmosphere that is becoming a phenomena here in the Costa Blanca.

Take a look at the video made with a drone flying over the garden during the concert:

During the event we had live recordings and interviews held with Peter and the musicians for the radio, you can enjoy the concerts and interviews here: “Momentos de Musica; classical music speaks any language!”   Newspapers The Costa Blanca Nachrichten, De Week and Hallo featured articles on the concerts.

Upcoming events

Momentos de Música is working on the preparations for two upcoming garden concert on Saturday 19 & Sunday 20 September. A selection of 7 professional musicians will play in duo’s in a sort of mini-concert-parade format (don’t worry, will be explained in the next newsletter). This will include exciting combinations with Spanish guitar, transverse flute, violin, soprano, piano and organ.

End of October or beginning November we will organise two more garden concerts. From December to April we will move from the garden to indoors, for the more intimate house concerts seating up to 40 guests in Villa El Nido, like we did last year with the Dutch pianists Wayenberg & Oei. I am hoping to bring these two top-pianists back to Jávea in the summer of 2016 but this time for a garden concert.

More about the upcoming events will be communicated shortly via our newsletter. Sign-up on www.momentosdemusica.es.

Thanks for the ongoing enthusiasm and see you soon!

Musical regards,

Peter Neeteson – Momentos de Música
