Перечитал классический уже текст Алекса Росса в New Yorker про бум классической музыки в Китае. Сейчас обратил внимание на совершенно другой фрагмент — где немолодые китайские композиторы-авангардисты каются в грехах прошлого и возвращаются к романтической мелодии. В общем, случай Сильвестрова — совершенно не уникальный и даже не так уж связан с пост-советской ситуацией (хотя сравнение пост-советской и китайской культурной истории, вероятно, еще ждет своего исследователя.)
"Many of the ’78 composers have worked to reconcile avant-garde and populist values. “In the West, our situation as composers is very sad,” Chen Qigang told me. “In the nineteen-fifties, we lost command of the field, not just because popular composers took over but because we ceded the terrain. We ‘developed’ to the point where we no longer knew anything about the art of writing melody. We had a kind of nonexistence in musical life.” Nodding to his Olympics experience, he added, “Now I understand how hard it is to compose a cheery little song.” No composer has embraced that challenge as eagerly as Tan Dun, whose submission to the Olympic ceremony is a radically bathetic pop ballad entitled “One World, One Dream.” Conceived in league with the songwriter and producer David Foster, Tan’s song has been recorded by Andrea Bocelli, the platinum-selling crossover tenor, and Zhang Liangying, another competitor from the 2005 “Super Girl” contest. “You are me and I am you,” they sing together, in English. Unfortunately, they don’t go on to say, “I am the walrus.”

Taking stock of the Chinese music boom.
Пианисты пересылают друг другу это видео, ну и я вам тоже покажу. 9-летний грузинский мальчик играет Берга. На его собственном канале есть и другие удивительные записи, включая его собственную музыку (посвящение Штокхаузену, все такое).

«Нет, трагедия налицо. Она не в отсутствии уровня жизни, а в полувековом уничтожении Представлений об уровне. Именно это будет решающим фактором истории ближайших лет».

Nuria Schoenberg-Nono and Arnold Schoenberg
Nuria Schoenberg-Nono on her father, Austrian composer Arnold Schoenberg.
Translation (by dust2340):
My name is Nuria Schoenberg-Nono, Schoenberg after my father and Nono after my late husband. This is a picture of me and my father, I guess I am -- this…

Вот прекрасный концерт с музыкой Андриессена.
Sometimes things don't go as planned. The Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century commissioned a new piece to Louis Andriessen in the memory of Frans Brüggen: “May”, an oratorio for choir and orchestra intended to be premiered in The Holland Festival during a concert dedicated to the memory of Frans Brüggen. Unfortunately it couldn't happen.
But far from giving up, the Festival and the Orchestra decided to go on with an alternative plan, a new program involving all the participants in the original concert: Lucie Horsch, Daniel Reuss, Cappella Amsterdam and a reduced Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century (just a small string section of members based in The Netherlands!).
On the 7th of June, only 30 people were allowed in the audience of the Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ. Now you can all listen and watch such an amazing evening:
Listen on Sunday 14 June, 20:00, NPO Radio 4, Avondconcert

У Ференца Листа в паспорте, выданном австрийскими властями, стояла пометка Celebritate sua sat notus ("достаточно известен благодаря своей славе") — вероятно, первая на свете виза O-1.
