James Ehnes has established himself as
one of the most sought-after violinists on
the international stage. Gifted with a rare
combination of stunning virtuosity, serene
lyricism and an unfaltering musicality,
Ehnes is a favourite guest of many of the
world’s most respected conductors including
Vladimir Ashkenazy, Marin Alsop, Andrew
Davis, Stéphane Denève, Mark Elder,
Iván Fischer, Edward Gardner, Paavo Järvi,
Juanjo Mena, Gianandrea Noseda, David
Robertson and Donald Runnicles. Ehnes’s
long list of orchestras he has worked with
include the Boston, Chicago, London, NHK
and Vienna symphony orchestras, the Los
Angeles, New York, Munich and Czech
philharmonic orchestras, and the Cleveland,
Philadelphia, Philharmonia and DSO
Berlin orchestras.
In 2021, Ehnes was announced as the
recipient of the coveted Artist of the Year
title in the 2021 Gramophone Awards which
celebrated his recent contributions to the
recording industry. This includes the launch
of a new online recital series entitled ‘Recitals
from Home’ which was released in June
2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic
and subsequent closure of concert halls.
Ehnes recorded the six Bach Sonatas and
Partitas and six Sonatas of Ysaÿe from his
home with state-of-the-art recording equipment
and released six episodes over the
period of two months. These recordings
have been met with great critical acclaim
CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS

by audiences worldwide and Ehnes was described
by Le Devoir as being "at the absolute
forefront of the streaming evolution".
Recent orchestral highlights include
the MET Orchestra at Carnegie Hall with
Gianandrea Noseda, Gewandhausorchester
Leipzig with Alexander Shelley, San
Francisco Symphony with Marek Janowski,
Frankfurt Radio Symphony with Andrés
Orozco-Estrada, London Symphony with
Daniel Harding, and Munich Philharmonic
with Jaap van Zweden. In 2017, Ehnes premiered
the Aaron-Jay Kernis Violin Concerto
with the Toronto, Seattle and Dallas
symphony orchestras, and gave further performances
of the piece with the Deutsches
Symphonie-Orchester and Melbourne
Symphony Orchestra. Throughout the
21/22 season, Ehnes is named as Artist
in Residence with the National Arts Centre
of Canada.
Alongside his concerto work, Ehnes
maintains a busy recital schedule. He performs
regularly at the Wigmore Hall, Carnegie
Hall, Symphony Center Chicago, Amsterdam
Concertgebouw, Ravinia, Montreux,
Chaise-Dieu, the White Nights Festival in
St Petersburg, Verbier Festival, Festival de
Pâques in Aix, and in 2018 he undertook a
recital tour to the Far East, including perfor-

mances in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore
and Kuala Lumpur. In 2016, Ehnes undertook
a cross-Canada recital tour, performing
in each of the country’s provinces and
territories, to celebrate his 40th birthday.
As part of the Beethoven celebrations,
Ehnes was invited to perform the complete
cycle of Beethoven Sonatas at the Wigmore
Hall in 2019/20. His third and final instalment
of Beethoven Violin Sonatas recordings
with Andrew Armstrong was released
by Onyx in 2020 and was given a glowing
review by Gramophone: “[Ehnes gave us]
the flawless technique, the purity of his
sound, and the extent to which everything
always feels elegant and just right, with no
attention-grabbing quirks or determined
originalities… a huge spectrum of colour
and articulation [is] employed”.
As a chamber musician, he has collaborated
with leading artists such as Leif Ove
Andsnes, Renaud Capuçon, Louis Lortie,
Nikolai Lugansky, Yo-Yo Ma, Antoine Tamestit,
Jan Vogler, Inon Barnatan and Yuja
Wang. In 2010, he formally established
the Ehnes Quartet, with whom he has performed
in Europe at venues including the
Wigmore Hall, Auditorium du Louvre in
Paris and Théâtre du Jeu de Paume in Aix,
amongst others. Ehnes is the Artistic Director
of the Seattle Chamber Music Society.
Ehnes has an extensive discography
and has won many awards for his recordings,
including a Grammy Award (2019) for
his live recording of Aaron Jay Kernis Violin
Concerto with the Seattle Symphony and
Ludovic Morlot, and a Gramophone Award
for his live recording of the Elgar Concerto
with the Philharmonia Orchestra and Andrew
Davis. His recording of the Korngold,
Barber and Walton violin concertos won a
Grammy Award for ‘Best Instrumental Soloist
Performance’ and a JUNO award for
‘Best Classical Album of the Year’. His recording
of the Paganini Caprices earned
him universal praise, with Diapason writing
of the disc, “Ehnes confirms the predictions
of Erick Friedman, eminent student of Heifetz:
‘there is only one like him born every
hundred years’.” Recent releases include
sonatas by Beethoven, Debussy, Elgar and
Respighi, and concertos by Walton, Britten,
Shostakovich, Prokofiev and Strauss, as
well as the Beethoven Violin Concerto with
the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
and Andrew Manze, which was released in
October 2017 on Onyx Classics.
Ehnes began violin studies at the age of
five, became a protégé of the noted Canadian
violinist Francis Chaplin aged nine, and
made his orchestra debut with L’Orchestre
symphonique de Montréal aged 13. He continued
his studies with Sally Thomas at the
Meadowmount School of Music and The
Juilliard School, winning the Peter Mennin
Prize for Outstanding Achievement and
Leadership in Music upon his graduation
in 1997. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society
of Canada and in 2010 was appointed
a Member of the Order of Canada. Ehnes
was awarded the 2017 Royal Philharmonic
Society Award in the Instrumentalist category.
Ehnes plays the “Marsick” Stradivarius
of 1715.

12 CAMA'S 103 RD CONCERT SEASON
NOTES
ON THE PROGRAM
By Howard Posner
Throughout Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s
life the piano-violin sonata was in a state
of evolution in the musical world around
him. Many composers wrote for amateur
keyboard players who might want to invite
a violinist (or violinist and cellist) over
for duets occasionally, but wanted music
that also worked without additional players.
The sonatas tended to be complete
in the keyboard part, with the violin either
doubling the right-hand keyboard part or
adding body to the sound without playing
anything indispensable. The violin gradually
achieved equality, and then, in the 19th
century, supremacy.
But Mozart was inclined to give the
violin a more significant role right from the
start, when keyboard-violin sonatas were
the bulk of his earliest compositions—he
wrote 16 of them by the time he was nine!
Twelve years later, he finished his first
adult keyboard-violin sonata on March 11,
1778, at the tail end of a four-month stay in
Mannheim, part of an extended excursion
in search of employment anywhere other
than his native Salzburg. Mozart and his
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
mother lodged in the home of a Mannheim
privy court counselor not only at no cost,
but with candles and firewood thrown
in, as Frau Mozart wrote in a letter to her
husband in Salzburg. In exchange for the
VIP treatment, Wolfgang gave piano lessons
to the counselor’s 15-year-old daughter,
Thérèse Pierron Serrarius. It proved a
better exchange than the Serrarius family
could have expected, because Mozart
wrote this sonata for Thérèse as a parting
gift of sorts. It was a remarkably consider-
CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS
13
ate thing to do for someone as preoccupied
as Mozart was, not only with preparing to
travel to Paris, but also with his first serious
love affair, with the singer Aloysia Weber. (It
didn’t work out, and he married her sister
Constanze four years later.)
It may have been out of regard for the
Serrarius family that Mozart did not publish
the sonata with a group of others printed
in Paris later in 1778. In 1781, Mozart published
it as part of set of six in Vienna that
was labeled “Opus 2.”
The sonata’s energetic dialogue between
the two instruments struck contemporaries
as something new. A Hamburg
critic described the Opus 2 Sonatas as “the
only ones of their kind” in a 1783 review,
calling them “rich in new ideas, showing the
great musical genius of their author,” and
noting that the “the violin accompaniment
is so ingeniously combined with the piano
part that both instruments are continuously
employed; and thus these sonatas demand
a violinist as accomplished as the pianist.”
The day was coming when nobody would
think of saying “violin accompaniment,” and
Mozart was hastening it.
Franz Schubert’s Fantasie in C dates
from December 1827, when Schubert was
suffering from advanced syphilis and had
less than a year to live, but managed to
maintain a level of productivity that would
have exhausted nearly anyone else.
Like the Rondeau brillant of a year earlier,
the Fantasie was written for the young
Bohemian violinist Josef Slawjk, who had
recently come to Vienna. Slawjk was looking
for crowd-pleasing music, and the Rondeau
had served admirably in that capacity,
but the Fantasie may have disappointed
him: one critic at its first performance in
January 1828 wrote that much of the audience
left before it was finished. It may
have been the end of a long evening, or a
bad performance, or it may have been that
those first listeners didn’t quite know what
to make of a work that seemed undecided
about whether it wanted to be virtuosic fluff
or a serious sonata. Even today, it seems to
go both ways, or perhaps either way. The
insistent piano tremolos in the introduction
may sound mysterious, threatening, or
just sentimental, depending on how they’re
played or the listener’s mood. The vivacious
second movement, in loose sonata
form, greatly resembles many calling-card
pieces that virtuoso players were writing
for themselves, but also has some more
cerebral features, such as the way the vio-
Franz Schubert by Josef Kriehuber (1800–1876)
14 CAMA'S 103 RD CONCERT SEASON
lin and piano play the theme in canon. And
characteristically for Schubert, it wanders
into remote keys (more noticeable and unnerving
to Schubert’s contemporaries, who
were still used to the more settled harmonic
language of Haydn, than it is to us), taking
a movement that begins in A minor and
eventually leading into a third movement in
the very distant key A-flat major, (the A‐flatmajor
scale has only two notes in common
with the A‐minor scale).
The third movement, about as long
as the other three put together, is a set of
variations on a somewhat altered version
of Schubert’s 1822 song “Sei mir gegrüßt.”
Again, the movement comes to no real
close, but leads into a section that recalls
the original introduction. What it introduces
this time is a jaunty marchlike finale in C major,
which makes another surprising modulation
to A‐flat major, for what amounts to
one more variation on “Sei mir gegrüßt,” before
a quick coda ends the Fantasie.
Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s incidental
music for Shakespeare’s Much Ado About
Nothing was a work in progress for about
two years. It began in 1918 when the Wiener
Volksbünde, a Vienna theater company,
commissioned Korngold to write music
for a production it would be staging in
the 18th-century Schloßtheater in the
Schönbrunn Palace.
The 21‐year‐old Korngold, who was being
underused as a music director for an
Austrian army Vienna regiment, jumped at
the prospect. He wrote 18 numbers, from
short cues and transitions to full‐blown
Erich Wolfgang Korngold in 1916, credit AKG-Images
scenes, running about 40 minutes in all. He
conceived it for a small group, for several
reasons: resources were limited because
World War I was still going on (and Austria
was losing it), the performing space was
small, and some of his music was to be
played under the dialogue. So his orchestra
was a chamber ensemble with one player to
a part: strings, four woodwinds, two horns,
trumpet, trombone and percussion.
In the summer of 1919, with Korngold
polishing the orchestration and the production
virtually ready, the Wiener Volksbühne
went bankrupt and shut down. Vienna's bigger
and wealthier Burgtheater took over the
production, and contracted members of
the Vienna Philharmonic to play Korngold’s
music, but it would be nearly another year
before the curtain would go up.
In the meantime, Korngold fashioned
some of the music into a three-movement
orchestral suite, which he conducted in performance
in January 1920. If it was the first
time the music was refashioned for life out-
CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS

Camille Saint-Saëns
side the theater, it would not be the last.
The play opened May 6, 1920, and was
such a success that it ran months longer
than anyone expected, long past the time
the Vienna Philharmonic players had to quit
because the Philharmonic’s 1920/1921
season was beginning. Other seasons were
also beginning, which meant finding eight
good wind players free on short notice
might be difficult, but Korngold was friends
with two of the best solo and chamber violinists
in Vienna, so he quickly reworked
the entire score for piano and violin. Much
Ado, like all Shakespeare’s comedies, is a
story about young couples getting joined.
The couple that everyone remembers from
Much Ado is Beatrice and Benedick, who
constantly joust with, and insult, each other
in a “merry war of words,” until their friends
“trick” them into realizing that the they really
love each other.
The “Maiden in the Bridal Chamber” is
not Beatrice, but her cousin Hero, whose
almost-destroyed betrothal absorbs much
of the plot.
“Dogberry and Verges, March of the
Watch” is “in the tempo of a grotesque
funeral march,” which almost begs to be
likened to Mahler. “Watch” was an Elizabethan
term for local police; and the constabulary
in Much Ado are buffoons, with
Dogberry, their chief, comically mangling
the language at every opportunity.
The “Scene in the Garden” refers to the
scene in Act V when Beatrice and Benedick
start to have a serious talk about loving
each other, but lapse into their personal
brand of jest:
Benedick:
Tell me for which of my bad parts
didst thou first fall in love with me?
Beatrice:
For them all together; which maintained
so politic a state of evil that
they will not admit any good part to
intermingle with them.
The music is adapted from Korngold’s otherwise-forgotten
1917 work Dances in the
Old Style. It is the best known of the Much
Ado music, and shows the melodic gift that

served Korngold well when he came to Los
Angeles and scored 21 movies between
1935 and 1957. The Hornpipe that concludes
this suite also concludes the play.
If the Mozart and Korngold works on
this program are products of child prodigies
emerging into adulthood, and the
Schubert work the product of a 27-year-old
former prodigy staring at death, Camille
Saint‐Saëns’s first violin sonata is the work
of a 49‐year‐old former prodigy settling into
the full flush of international success.
He wrote it in 1885, after his three violin
concertos (and the ever‐popular 1865
über‐bonbon Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso
he wrote for the Spanish violinist
Pablo de Sarasate in 1865). The first sonata
is a different animal. It is Saint‐Saëns at his
most Beethovenian.
The allegro agitato that begins the work
is brooding, turbulent, and full of contrast
even by late 19th‐century standards. The
opening theme begins with 27‐beat phrases
(three measures in 6⁄8 time followed by
one measure in 9⁄8), an irregular meter that
makes everything uncertain and a bit surprising.
The second theme is angelically lyrical
(it, and the sonata as a whole, inspired
the sonata by the fictional Vinteuil in Marcel
Proust’s À la Recherche du temps perdu),
but it is just a respite from a battle that engulfs
both violin and piano. The movement
loses steam and melts away into the gentle
but passionate Adagio second movement.
The third movement is an edgy scherzo
with a middle section that uses the same
melodic figure as the main section, but
changes its character by changing the articulation
from short staccato notes to
smoother legato ones. It leads without
pause to the not‐quite-perpetual motion
of the finale. The first movement’s second
theme makes a return appearance, improbably
set against the finale’s running
16th‐notes.
Saint‐Saëns dedicated the sonata to
the Paris violinist Martin Pierre Marsick,
who played the first performance with him
in January 1886. [James Ehnes plays the
“Marsick” Stradivarius of 1715.] Saint‐Saëns
was aware that the sonata made enormous
demands on the violinist, and demanded a
great variety of technique and expression.
He wrote to his publisher that ordinary violinists
would call it the “hippogriff sonata.”
For non‐Harry Potter fans, a hippogriff has
the legs of a horse but the body of a giant
eagle. A very different animal indeed.
