2022 Unsung Concerts

[eschiss1]

Raff's sextet was performed late last year in NYC; another performance seems to be on the way on 3 July 2022, by the EnsembLesAlpes, apparently in Andermatt, Switzerland.

This weekend a concert with Stanford's 2nd string quintet is part of the Midsummer Music series in Wisconsin; a few days ago they opened their season with piano quartets by Friedrich Kiel and Joachim Raff... other works according to the schedule PDF include in late August a Smyth/Schubert quintet concert, preceded by another containing Ries' septet op.25, etc....

Hello All,
I am friends with a descendant of the Scharwenka brothers on Facebook and he's sent me details of the Scharwenka festival in Poland. I'm sure it can be easily found on Google for those who are close enough to go.
Best regards
Jonathan

The Tenerife Symphony Orchestra will be playing Kurt Atterberg's Sixth next March: https://bachtrack.com/concert-event/sinfonia-dolar-orquesta-sinfonica-de-tenerife-auditorio-de-tenerife-17-march-2023/366857

It's interesting to see Spanish orchestras do these unsung pieces. This year I, unfortunately, had to miss Woyrsch's First in Badajoz (it was also played in Caceres), and now this.

The Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin is going to up in Quebec Saturday to play Étienne Nicolas Méhul's Symphony No. 1 in G minor. Bard is doing Ferruccio Busoni's Piano Concerto in C Major later this summer along with the prelude to Paderewski's  opera Manru.

I do hope that this concert heralds a recording of Massenet's La Nef Triomphale, which I think is the only piece which hasn't been recorded at least once.

A Balakirev overture, btw, will be performed live September 17 at River Center for the Performing Arts by the Columbus Symphony Orchestra.  Bax's Tintagel was already in Prom 2 (July 16.)

I do hope that this concert heralds a recording of Massenet's La Nef Triomphale, which I think is the only piece which hasn't been recorded at least once.

Yes, agreed. In the meantime the piece has the 'honour' of featuring on a postage stamp!

Conductor and Music Director Leon Botstein highlights four German and Austrian composers of the early 20th century whose music was unfairly ignored or suppressed following World War II. TŌN is partnering with the Hugo Kauder Society to debut a new restoration of the Viennese composer's First Symphony.

I probably missed this, but Emilie Mayer's Faust overture is being performed 14 October in Berlin- see https://bachtrack.com/concert-event/zu-neuen-ufern-orchester-der-komischen-oper-berlin-komische-oper-berlin-14-october-2022/365032. 22 October in Stockholm brings a performance of her G minor string quartet.

Apparently not mentioned in this thread yet, but Raff's octet is being performed in NYC on September 19th by the Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players.

[Alan Howe]

Question: what concert featuring music by Raff can I attend here in the UK?
