director of the Loch Shiel Spring Festival in the Scottish Highlands and maintains his interest in chamber music with the Florin Ensemble. He plays a violin made for him in 2007 by the young German luthier Stephan von Baehr. Vor seiner Ernennung zum Mitleiter des BBC Concert Orchestra im Jahr 2007 hatte Charles Mutter vier Jahre lang das Edinburgh Quartet geleitet und war seit zehn Jahren Mitglied des Smith Quartet gewesen. Seine Arbeit mit diesen beiden Ensembles hatte ihm viele Preise und hohes Kritikerlob eingebracht. Seit 2007 ist er oft als Solist mit dem BBC Concert Orchestra und anderen Orchestern aufgetreten. Auch als Gastleiter ist er sehr gefragt, besonders beim Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Daneben hat Charles noch die künstlerische Leitung des Loch Shiel Festivals in schottischen Hochland inne und pflegt seine Liebe für die Kammermusik mit dem Florin Ensemble. Er spielt eine Geige, die 2007 eigens für ihn von dem jungen deutschen Geigenbauer Stephan von Baehr angefertigt wurde.

In recent years, recordings of Volkmar Andreae’s chamber music compositions have been issued, principally on the Guild label, to universal critical acclaim, not least for the quality of the musical invention the works contain. The fact that Andreae’s music had been unjustly neglected for so long was not the least surprise attending those releases, for if the name of Volkmar Andreae had been mentioned to most reasonably informed musiclovers in the latter half of the 20th-century, the almost universal reaction would have been to recognise him solely as a conductor. Volkmar Andreae was undoubtedly a conductor of considerable merit; for example, he had been approached by the board of the New York Philharmonic in 1911 with an offer to succeed the recently-deceased Gustav Mahler as the Orchestra’s music director, but Andreae declined: his ties to Switzerland, especially Zürich (where he had been appointed conductor of the Tonhalle Orchestra in 1906, a position he was to hold for over 40 years), were too strong to break. His conducting was admired by such contemporary luminaries as Toscanini, Bruno Walter, Fritz Busch, Nikisch, Weingartner and Henry Wood, many of whom – together with others – also performed a wide range of his music, from operas to symphonic orchestral compositions. Mention of Fritz Busch recalls Andreae’s Violin Concerto of 1936, which was dedicated to and premiered by the great Adolf Busch, brother of the conductor. 3
