Sunday 5 May 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last few weeks have been unusually busy for the piano class due to the fact that this year there were not just one or two pianists performing their Graduation Concerts, but as many as six of them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First up was Anna Jubro with Liebermann, Schumann, Poulenc, Ravel and Rachmaninov in the program, then came Erik Flock with Turina, Clarke, Smetana and Pann, and Julia Thuvesen who played Tarrodi, Debussy, Chopin, Schubert and Arnold. The week after Efraim Tropp played Prokofiev, Schubert and Adams, together with Siri Karlsson who performed Scarlatti, Crumb, Thalberg and Muczynski and Mischa Carlberg whose program consisted of Rameau, Couperin, Chopin, Conrad, Debussy and Messiaen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A piece after 1970 is compulsory for all students, what I think was great about this year’s program selection was that several of the pianists gave  New Music more space in their programs! If we look at the composers by centuries, there is clearly an emphasis on music composed in the 19th and 2000s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examenskonserter f\u00f6r pianister<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

De senaste veckorna har varit ovanligt hektiska f\u00f6r pianoklassen p\u00e5 grund av att det i \u00e5r som brukligt inte var bara en eller tv\u00e5 pianister som skulle framf\u00f6ra sina examenskonserter, utan s\u00e5 m\u00e5nga som sex studenter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

F\u00f6rst ut var Anna Jubro med Liebermann, Schumann, Poulenc, Ravel och Rachmaninov i programmet, sedan kom Erik Flock med Turina, Clarke, Smetana och Pann, och Julia Thuvesen som spelade Tarrodi, Debussy, Chopin, Schubert och Arnold. Efraim Tropp spelade veckan efter Prokofjev, Schubert och Adams, tillsammans med Siri Karlsson som framf\u00f6rde Scarlatti, Crumb, Thalberg och Muczynski och Mischa Carlberg vars program bestod av Rameau, Couperin, Chopin, Conrad, Debussy och Messiaen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ett stycke efter 1970 \u00e4r obligatoriskt f\u00f6r samtliga studenter, det som jag tycker var roligt med \u00e5rets programval var att flera av pianisterna gav den nyare musiken stort utrymme i sina program! Om vi tar komposit\u00f6rerna i kronologisk ordning s\u00e5 \u00e4r det ocks\u00e5 klar tyngdpunkt p\u00e5 musik komponserad p\u00e5 19- och 2000-talen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
