Dear Czernowitzers,
It is my great pleasure to inform you about this year’s Mandyczewski Festival, which will take place in Czernowitz/Chernivtsi in late September:
http://ehpes.com/blog1/?p=10587
While last year’s festival was dedicated only to Mandy’s music – after the discovery of several manuscript scores – we broadened the scope this year: the concerts will include music by Mandy’s mentors, friends, and students (Hrimaly, Fuchs, Rottenberg, Sinigaglia), and we will also reconstruct the wider musical soundscape of the city at the turn of the century by including music by local bandmasters (Kostelecky) and amateur composers (Poras, Buchenthal).
Members of the listserv have supported this project in manifold ways (as always – thanks, Edgar, thanks, Bruce!). I am especially grateful to Joe Poras, who sponsored the re-orchestration of the waltz “Studentenliebe” (A student’s love), a piece composed by his grandmother Eleonore in 1914, and, according to the Czernowitzer Allgemeine Zeitung – the hit of the ball season of 1914! (the waltz will be performed at the opening concert, which is dedicated to string orchestra works)
If you are around, please join us!
Yours,
Dietmar Friesenegger
