22 Zoltán Kodály BARTÓK from Bratislava to Nagoya The National Theatre in Slovakia's capital, where Béla Bartók and his mother lived in 1892/93, is to stage two of his three one act works - the opera Bluebeard's Castle and the ballet The Wooden Prince (première on 15 January 2005). A week later, the ballet will also open at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Duisburg (22 Jan); Bluebeard will see a semi-staged performance in Nagoya on 11 Feb. The suite from the ballet has been programmed in Berlin under Michael Gielen (1-2 Feb) and in Paris under Kirill Karabits (6-8 Jan). Steven Sloane will conduct the suite from the pantomime The Miraculous Mandarin on 13 Feb in Bochum, and Peter Eötvös will conduct performances in Stuttgart (19-21 Jan) and Hamburg (25 Feb). KODÁLY Psalmus and Dances Psalmus hungaricus, generally akknowledged to be one of the greatest choral works of the 20th century, will be performed on 28 Jan at the St. Nikolauskirche in Aachen (Collegium Musicum of the RWTH Aachen under Hub. Pittie). In his psalm, composed in 1923, Zoltán Kodály used the words of a medieval Hungarian preacher to criticise the conditions of his own day. During the next few months, two Kodály favourites - Marosszék Dances and Dances from Galánta - will be heard in Zurich (28 - 30 Jan) and in Koblenz (23 January 2005). bartók / kodály
KRENEK Ernst-Krenek- Institute Private Foundation in Krems 12 September 2004 saw the opening of the Ernst-Krenek-Institute Private Foundation in Krems, Austria. Ernst Krenek, who left Austria following the Anschluss of 1938, settled in California, where he died in 1991. His widow, Gladys N. Krenek, has since done much to promote the appreciation of his oeuvre. In February 2004, she founded the Ernst-Krenek-Institute Private Foundation with the support of Austria's federal government and the Province of Lower Austria. The Foundation exists to collect and house Krenek’s entire legacy permanently in Krems, making this city the composer's new home. The Foundation is dedicated to the research, presentation, support and promotion of Ernst Krenek's work. Krenek's 2-part opera Jonny spielt auf, premièred in 1927 in Leipzig and performed thereafter on over 70 European stages, will be performed on 24 February 2005 at the Cologne Opera in Günter Krämer's production which was premièred at the Vienna State Opera on 16 De- cember 2002. Musical direction: Ryusuke Numajiri, Gürzenich Orchester Köln. Further performances: 26 Feb and 4, 6, 11, 13, 16, 19, 23 and 27 Mar 2005. Fragmente aus Karl V for soprano and orchestra will be heard on 26 Feb in Eindhoven with Marc Soustrot and Het Brabants Orkest. Capriccio recently released Krenek's three one act works Der Diktator, Schwergewicht oder die Ehre der Nation and Das geheime Königreich (Capriccio, 2 CDs, 60107). krenek 23
