Klaus Döring's Classical Music/Klaus Döring's Klassische Musik

by   Emily E. Hogstad  Composers have been writing violin concertos since the beginning of the eighteenth century. Over the next three centuries, composers created thousands of violin concertos. Most have since fallen into obscurity…but a handful have demonstrated their enduring appeal to both musicians and audiences. © medium.com Although it’s a fool’s errand to make an objective list of the ten greatest violin concertos, we’re taking a shot at making a subjective one. So here’s our list of the ten greatest violin concertos, a brief overview of what makes each one so appealing, and a link to the most popular YouTube performance of each concerto. 10. J.S. Bach: Violin Concerto No. 1 (c. 1720)    Johann Sebastian Bach’s first violin concerto likely dates from around 1720, when Bach was employed by Prince Leopold of Anhalt-Köthen. While working for Leopold, he wrote more instrumental secular music than religious music. One of the pieces dating from this time was this v...

Published Nov 18, 2025 11:24 pm In a landmark moment for Original Pilipino Music, Rockwell’s Proscenium Theater opened its doors to a historic three-night celebration of artistry, heritage, and musical mastery. From Nov. 14 to 16, 2025, audiences were transported into the heart of OPM through MaestroClass: The Songs of Ryan Cayabyab, a concert that brought together three pillars of Philippine music on one stage. National Artist for Music Ryan 'Mr. C' Cayabyab, The Concert King Martin Nievera, and The Nightingale Lani Misalucha. More than a performance, MaestroClass became a testament to Cayabyab’s enduring genius, his melodies, his mentorship, and his unmatched influence on generations of Filipino artists. Held at the elegant Proscenium Theater, the first major concert staged in its acoustically calibrated 780-seat space, the event was immersive from the first note to the last. The venue’s natural acoustics, designed so that every nuance rings with clarity, gave Cayabyab’s musi...

by   Maureen Buja  French conductor Pierre Monteux (1875–1964) always seemed to be the right man at the right time. As a student of violin and viola at the Paris Conservatoire, his fellow students included George Enescu,  Fritz Kreisler , and  Alfred Cortot . Upon graduation, one of his first jobs was violist for the orchestra of the Folies Bergère (1889–1892), when the Folies had Toulouse-Lautrec doing their posters. He played in or conducted works by Camille Saint-SaënsSaint, including being a last-minute conductor for a performance of Saint-Saëns’s cantata  La Lyre et la Harpe  (the composer at the organ), earning Saint-Saëns’s undying gratitude. Irwin D. Hoffmann:  Pierre Monteux , 1959 (Boston Public Library) In 1894, he was named both principal violist and assistant conductor of the Colonne Orchestra in Paris. The orchestra’s founder, Édouard Colonne, had known  Berlioz  and could work with Monteux on what the composer really wante...

by  Emily E. Hogstad Most musicians don’t know a lot about Fanny Mendelssohn besides the fact that she was Felix’s uber-talented older sister. But she was a hugely important musical figure in her own right. We look at thirteen facts you (probably) didn’t know about the life and career of Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel. Fanny Mendelssohn © play-images.primephonic.com     4. She wrote her own music for her wedding the night before the ceremony.  Felix had never gotten around to doing it for her, as he’d promised he’d do. 5. She named her son Sebastian Ludwig Felix Hensel after her three favorite composers: Bach, Beethoven…and her brother.  Sebastian would be her only child.

Wilhelm Hensel used her as a model for a famous painting depicting Miriam, a Biblical figure often used to represent the art of music.  In 1838 Queen Victoria met Hensel, sa...

by   Hermione Lai   César Franck’s genius flowered astonishingly late. Until his 50s, he composed mostly sacred choral works, songs, and early orchestral essays that met with indifference. Public acclaim eluded him as even his 1841 Trio dedicated to  Franz Liszt  faded quickly. César Franck Yet from 1879 onward, a creative surge produced masterpieces that redefined French music. Just think of the passionate  Piano Quintet , the vivid symphonic poem  Le Chasseur maudit , the  Symphonic Variations  or the  Prélude, Choral et Fugue .    César Franck:  Prélude, Choral et Fugue Disowning his Youth These works fused German structural depth with elegance, influencing  Ravel ,  Debussy , and the entire École Franckiste. Yet, Franck remained a modest man, dying on 8 November 1890 after a street accident exacerbated pleurisy. In his early years, however, Franck displayed an astonishing natural gift for the piano and composition...

by   Joanna Latala   Music is often thought of as an art form that exists primarily through sound, but for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals, music is not necessarily beyond reach. Instead of being heard in the traditional sense, music can be felt through vibrations, seen through visual representations, and even experienced emotionally in profound ways. How do deaf individuals engage with music, and what innovations allow them to access its beauty? Let’s explore the ways in which music transcends sound.    Feeling Music: Experiencing Sound Through Vibrations One of the most common ways that deaf individuals experience music is through vibrations. Sound waves create physical movements in the air, and these vibrations can be felt through the skin, bones, and body. Here’s how: Bone Conduction  – The inner ear can pick up vibrations transmitted through bones, a technique that some deaf musicians and listeners use to “hear” music in a tactile way. Vibrational...
