Musikalisches Opfer Bwv 1079 On Digital Instruments By Mehmet Okonsar
The actual music of J
The actual music of J. S. Bach has been maintained alive merely by a small circle of enthusiastic and educated music lovers till the particular The Leipzig Cantor revival that was kicked of through Felix Mendelssohn along with his historic public performance of The actual St Mathew Passion within March of 1829.
The six Brandenburg Concertos (BWV 1046-51), among several additional secular musical output, date from his Cothen years. Bach started to be "Kantor" of the particular Thomas School inside Leipzig in May 1723 and also held the particular post right up until his death.
It has been in Leipzig the fact that he composed the majority of his religious together with secular cantatas.
There isn't any sharp historical hint as to the organization in which the parts of the Musical Offering by Johann Sebastian Bach need to be played neither in what order. Bach dispatched the work, etched at his own cost, to Frederick the Great in about three installments, without having any performance or instrumentation suggestions, no program order, along with the canons were being merely one-liners that the players would need to understand. Therefore it is up to the particular producer as well as artists to resolve on a program order, as well as instrumentation.
Musical Offering is bound to have its origins within a meeting in between Bach as well as Frederick II on May 7, 1747. The actual gathering, taking place at the King's property inside Potsdam, came about for the reason that Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel was basically employed there as court music performer.
Frederick planned to present J.S. Bach a uniqueness, the piano, one of the firsts ever made, which in turn have been conceived a few years earlier. The King possessed some of the experimental instruments being designed according to Gottfried Silbermann.
During his predicted visit to Frederick's palace in Potsdam, Bach, who has been well known for his particular proficiency at improvising, obtained from Frederick a long and complex musical theme on which to improvise a three-voice fugue. He succeeded, nevertheless Frederick subsequently pushed him to improvise a six-voice fugue on exactly the same theme.
The public present contemplated the fact that only a malevolent caprice through the particular King, who was intent after embarrassing philosophers in addition to music performers.
Bach answered that he might ought to great music composition the particular score in addition to send it towards the King later on. He then came back to Leipzig to write down the "Thema Regium" (i.e. theme of the king).
Two months after the meeting, Bach released a collection of pieces based on this particular theme that we all at present recognize as "The Musical Offering" BWV 1079.
Bach inscribed the particular piece "Regis Iussu Cantio Et Reliqua Canonica Arte Resoluta" (the theme provided by the the king, along with innovations, resolved within the canonic style), the very first letters of that spell out the saying "Ricercar", a well-known genre of the time.
The particular "Thema Regium" sounds like the theme for the purpose of the primary and even last movements of the 7th Sonata within D Minor basically by Friedrich Wilhelm Rust, composed within 1788, and even also as the theme with regard to complex variations according to Giovanni Paisiello within his "Les Adieux de la Grande Duchesse des Russies," published throughout 1784, over his leaving from the court of Catherine the Great.
Mehmet Okonsar released an entire version of the BWV 1079 realized on electronic instruments.
Mehmet Okonsar was born in Istanbul (Turkey) and resided in Paris for the duration of his earliest schooling. He started mastering piano in the National Conservatory of Ankara, with Nimet Karatekin and Necil Kazim Akses.
Right after about a year and half learning at the Ankara Conservatory, the Okonsar family transferred to Belgium where Mehmet entered the class of Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden at the Brussels Royal Conservatory of Music.
Additionally, the specific style as well as guidelines of Pierre Sancan who has been the mentor of Michel Beroff, met with Okonsar in the person of one of the master's students he met for the duration of his short stay in the Turkish capital in the last years of the nineteen seventies.
Even at his primary public appearance in 1979, the specific eclecticism connected with his recital programs to come could be found. He offered a collection of the Preludes by Messiaen among others.
The piano studies of Okonsar terminated with all the best honors any student can certainly ever get at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. "Premier Prix avec Distinction", performing the "Dante Sonata" by Liszt followed by "Diplome Superieur de Piano Avec la plus Grande Distinction, Premier Nomme", in 1986, performing the Piano Concerto Op. 42 by Arnold Schoenberg.
At the finish of his piano studies, Okonsar obtained the particular privilege of working with one of the biggest composers of Belgium: Madame Jacqueline Fontyn. He as well studied with a scholar of Messiaen, Claude Ballif. In 1989 he gets his diplomas in Composition-Orchestration from the Royal Conservatory of Music of Brussels.
"Functioning through Turkey will not be impossible in our times" affirms the pianist.
It is true that he's specially secure while using the computers and possesses an extremely formidable appearance on the Internet.
Okonsar is extremely productive from Turkey where he performs, practice, compose and also writes. He operates a CD company and a publishing house.
Mehmet Okonsar's worldwide career commenced with the help of the first prize at the International Young Virtuoses Competition of Antwerp in 1982. His orchestral debut was the third Concerto by Rachmaninoff executed at the "de Singel" Concert Hall in Antwerp, Belgium. His various other prizes are: Paris, 1989, "J. S. Bach" at the Salle Gaveau: second prize; 1990, Rome, Association Chopin "Premio Etruria": 1st prize; and 1991, United States, Utah, the 6th prize at the "Gina Bachauer International Piano Competition".
Functioning widely on technical matters, as he says "the actual technologies might actually "totally free" the artist", his studies were being displayed in a lecture at the Yamaha headquarters in Hamamatsu, Japan.
His repertoire encompasses a selection from the early 17.th century ("The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book") including composers, amongst others, Orlando Gibbons and Giles Farnaby and also reaches up to late 20.th century with the works by Karlheinz Stockhausen as well as Witold Lutoslawski.
Dominant works in this particular repertoire are: J.S. Bach "The Art of Fugue" performed on organ (or piano) and also harpsichord; the Goldberg Variations, the integrale of Well-tempered Keyboard.
All the particular aspects associated with the tremendous musical work by J. S. Bach happens to be given together with fantastic readability and essence in the selection of "sounds" and also "instruments" put to use. A lot more "human" when compared to Wendy Carlos, substantially less "affectionate" than Tomita the outcome is certainly truly interesting.
Two distinct artistic options applied by The multi-faceted music artist Okonsar definitely worth observing. First he thought to take advantage of sampled historical instruments (i.e. viols "da gamba") with regard to the particular Sonate in Trio. The complete sound generated from those viols and the block flute is actually impressive. Subsequently he by choice decided to give the "endless" canon an authentic infinite component by not ending the music but rather fading out its conclusion.
Most of the other prevailing key cd releases of the musical work constantly looked like ineffective to my opinion. Usually the orchestrations tend to be "too sizable" ordinarily pompous. In all probability the pianist and composer Okonsar created the best contemporary choice with regards to the instrumentation (which is definitely not described in the actual music score). The Belgian performer once pointed out the fact that if perhaps Bach was alive right now he would probably have used electronic instruments mainly because he seems to have been constantly intrigued along with the fresh sound resources associated with his particular time period.
The Turkish born Belgian artist is an adept of the "Free Music" school of thought. Virtually all his downloads are shared according to most of the 3rd party artist. This is without a doubt a good unique behavior which, according to the particular composer will be of enormous returns to both the particular artist, the main launch and the main classical music field.
Similarly the very the top video site Youtube(r) incorporates a variety of Mehmet Okonsar performance media. Generally his Disc publications are on the other hand published as live videos into the artist's Youtube(r) channel: mokonsar.
