Andrea Gabrieli (1532-1585)-E dove non potea
Sprezzatura playing E dove non potea by Andrea Gabrieli (1532-1585) at the El Paso Public Library van Doren Branch on August 4th, 2018.
Based in El Paso, Texas, Sprezzatura is a quartet which focuses on the performance and promotion of early music. Simply put, early music is generally pre-Classical era music: any music from the Medieval (c.500-c.1400), Renaissance (c.1400-c.1600), and Baroque (c.1600-c.1750) eras. We focus mostly on the music of the Renaissance and early Baroque because we enjoy the creative freedom it allows in terms of varying instrumentation, ornamentation and improvisation.
We serve as an outreach group for the Rio Grande Chapter of The American Recorder Society, whose mission is to promote education, performance and appreciation of the recorder as an instrument for professional, amateur and student musicians.
We consider ourselves to be music educators, and are therefore passionate about sharing our knowledge of this music with our audiences. Most of our public performances include plenty of explanations and discussions about the instruments we play, the composers whose works we perform, the compositions themselves, and life during the Renaissance.
We are available for a variety of events, such as: educational performances for world history and/or music appreciation classes, Renaissance/art fairs, weddings, and so on. Our members are also available for individual private lessons or group coaching on both historical and modern instruments (beginners and all ages are welcome; see member biographies below).
Our members:
Marcia Fountain- viola da gamba, recorders
Dr. Marcia Fountain is retired from the faculty at the University of Texas at El Paso, where at one time or another she taught cello, theory, and music history. She now enjoys playing viola da gamba and recorder with various groups in the El Paso area.

Dr. Lindsey Macchiarella joined the music faculty at the University of Texas at El Paso in fall 2015 as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Music. She received her Bachelor of Arts from the University of California, Riverside, and a Master’s in Musicology and certificate in Early Music Studies from Florida State University. In 2016, she completed her PhD with a focus in musicology from Florida State University. Her area of specialization is early modernism in fin-de-siècle France and Russia and her recent studies have focused on the sketches and libretto of Aleksandr Skryabin’s (Alexander Scriabin) unfinished work, Prefatory Action. She completed extensive archival research at the Scriabin Museum in Moscow, Russia.
Lindsey is also an early music performer on the recorder and viola da gamba. She is co-Director of the Rio Grande Chapter of the American Recorder Society and she performs with Sprezzatura, an early music performing group based in El Paso. She is the founder and director of the UTEP Early Music ensemble, a group which performs Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque repertoire on period instruments.

Impromptu Op.14 No.1 by Alexandr Scriabin, played here by Alexey Chernov
The State Tretyakov Gallery is the foremost gallery of Russian fine art in the world. The collection was begun in 1856 when the Moscow merchant Pavel Mikhailovich Tretyakov acquired works by Russian artists of his day with the aim of creating a collection, which might later grow into a museum of national art. In 1892, Tretyakov presented his already famous collection of approximately 2,000 works (1,362 paintings, 526 drawings, and 9 sculptures) to the Russian nation.
The façade of the gallery building was designed by the painter Viktor Vasnetsov in a peculiar Russian fairy-tale style. It was built in 1902–04.
Today, the gallery extends to several neighboring buildings, including the 17th-century church of St. Nicholas in Tolmachi. There are in excess of 130,000 exhibits and includes the collection of George Costakis, the Russian born Greek collector of Modern Russian avant-garde art.
This is a wonderful gallery and always spend a day here when in Moscow....

The Piano Sonata No. 5, Op. 53, is a work written by Alexander Scriabin in 1907. This was his first sonata to be written in one movement, a format he retained from then on. A typical performance lasts from 11 to 12 minutes.
Avenue de la Harpe 14, Lausanne, Switzerland. Scriabin lived in that building between 1907 and 1908. Here he revised the score of his Poème de l'Extase and composed his Fifth Piano Sonata.
After finishing his symphonic poem Le Poème de l'Extase, Op.54, Scriabin did not feel comfortable living in Paris. In early September 1907 he wrote:
Life is fearfully expensive, and the climate is rotten. The air in the areas where we could find an apartment big enough for us at a reasonable price is frightful you cannot make any noise. You have to wear house slippers after 10 at night.
Scriabin decided to go to live in Lausanne with his pregnant wife Tatyana, since he found the place to be cheaper, quieter, and healthier, and only 7 hours away from Paris. Also, he had his music being printed there, as he had recently broken his long-term partnership with publisher M.P. Belaieff due to financial discrepancies.
On late December, Scriabin wrote to Morozova about the imminent completion of his new work:
The Poem of Ecstasy took much of my strength and taxed my patience. [...] Today I have almost finished my 5th Sonata. It is a big poem for piano and I deem it the best composition I have ever written. I do not know by what miracle I accomplished it .
Although the actual writing took only six days, from 8 to 14 December 1907, some ideas had been conceived much earlier. The initial nine bars of the first theme of the exposition, Presto con allegrezza (mm. 47 ff.), can be found in a notebook from 1905-1906, when Scriabin was in Chicago. Another notebook from 1906 contains the Imperioso theme, while elements from the Meno vivo can also be made out, as well as sketched-out passages for a few other sections.
Scriabin included an epigraph to this sonata, extracted from his essay Le Poème de l'Extase
Original Russian text
Я к жизни призываю вас, скрытые стремленья!
Вы, утонувшие в темных глубинах
Духа творящего, вы, боязливые
Жизни зародыши, вам дерзновенье приношу!
Original French translation
Je vous appelle à la vie, ô forces mysterieuses!
Noyées dans les obscures profondeurs
De l’esprit créateur, craintives
Ebauches de vie, à vous j’apporte l’audace!
English translation
I call you to life, oh mysterious forces!
Drowned in the obscure depths
Of the creative spirit, timid
Shadows of life, to you I bring audacity!
Five months after its completion, Scriabin published the work himself in Lausanne, producing an edition with 300 copies. He later gave the autograph as a present to his pupil Alfred La Liberté. In 1971 the pianist’s widow gave the manuscript, along with various other documents, to the Scriabin Museum.
The work was premiered on 18 November 1908 in Moscow by pianist Mark Meitschik.
Sergei Yuferov : Élégie , #3 from 6 Arabesques, Op. 1
This highly individual piece from the mid 1880s is by the Ukrainian composer Sergei Yuferov (Russian: Юферов Сергей Владимирович ) (1865-1927). I have little information on him (other than what is in the useful Wikipedia article: - but he was born in Odessa, and studied at both the St.Petersburg and Moscow conservatories. He wrote in many genres, including three operas - one a setting of Shakespeare's 'Antony and Cleopatra'. I would like to hear his epic cantata 'Ilya Muromets', and compare it with Gliere's monster symphony on the same subject. This is the only piano piece I have been able to see by him (although he wrote many more), but apart from the vaguely Wagnerian agitato middle section, it does not remind me of the work of any other composer. There is a little more on Yuferov - and his book collection on this Ukrainian site:

These are not such a collection of historical photographs as the house and grounds had been turned into a museum soon after the death of Lenin in 1924. However, I like them very much as they have a soft glow about them and show how light and airy the rooms are…..
The estate of Gorki belonged to various Muscovite noblemen from the 18th century. Zinaida Morozova, the widow of Savva Morozov, purchased it in 1909, the year before she married General Anatoly Reinbot (later Anatoly Rezvoy) the Moscow head of police. She engaged the most fashionable Russian architect, Fyodor Schechtel, to remodel the mansion in the then current Neoclassical style, complete with a six-column Ionic portico.
After the Soviet government moved to Moscow in 1918 it nationalized the luxurious estate and converted it into Vladimir Lenin's dacha. In September 1918 the Soviet leader recuperated there following an assassination attempt. He spent an increasing amount of time there as his health declined over the following years. On May 15, 1923 Lenin followed medical advice and left the Moscow Kremlin for Gorki. He lived there in semi-retirement until his death on January 21, 1924.

Russian pianist Andrej Hoteev is a phenomenon. Several years ago, he demonstrated his great art in the same Matinee in Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.
In the Piano Concerto by Alfred Schnittke in the introductory cadence Hoteev showed his depth to trance which allows him to go all the way... Suggestive music Schnittke's music gained a strong and multifaceted interpretation and Hoteev's performance sometimes resembled a delightful irrepressible and drive of Glenn Gould!
Jos Ruiters, Russische pianist geeft diepgang zonder gene bloot (Nordhollands Dagblad, Amsterdam, 04.02.02)
Andrej Hoteev is born virtuoso: powerful, incredible and amazing. One can rarely hear such a spectacular and powerful performance. He plays the piano, as if the fate of the world depends on it. He is a true warrior. He is a hero. Never seen!
Michel Faure ,, VERS L'APOTHEOSE (,, La Marseilles e 14.M ai 1996), France
Russian pianist Andrej Hoteev led movement in heaven and hell... His great pianism is not digitalized fingers, but exciting spiritual world, his humanistic appeals, his drama and landscapes of his moods... Hoteev interprets the 9th Scriabine's Sonata (Black Mass) as anticipation disasters of humanity in the 20th century. The other highlights of the evening were the Grand Sonata in B Minor by F. Liszt and sensational performance of Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky. Andrej Hoteev dedicated this program to the legendary pianist Sviatoslav Richter who he met in 1985 in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Lutz Lesle. Ein olympisches Programm, Die Welt 07.06.10
An excellent pianist (Kurier, Vienna), One of the best Russian pianists (Midi libre, France), A fanatic of textual authenticism (Crescendo, Brussels),
Andrej Hoteev captivates listeners with his brilliant, gripping technique, his brilliantly rousing, grippingly demonic, and at the same time charming and ethereally delicate performances as a true successor to the Great Russian traditions.
Andrej Hoteev, one of the best-known Tchaikovsky connoisseurs, researchers and performers presents his latest discovery: 22 previously unknown original transcriptions of Tchaikovsky's ballet The Sleeping Beauty for piano duet by Sergei Rachmaninov. To illustrate the ballet's magical content more completely through the music, Andrej Hoteev has put together an exciting ballet suite that includes fairy dances, scenes from fairy tales, dances for Princess Aurora and her Prince and of course Tchaikovsky's most beautiful waltzes, played by Hoteev himself and his wife, the Russian pianist Olga Hoteev.

Scriabin, Piano Sonata No. 5, Op. 53. [Sheet music]
The Piano Sonata No. 5, Op. 53, is a work written by Alexander Scriabin in 1907. This was his first sonata to be written in one movement, a format he retained from then on. A typical performance lasts from 11 to 12 minutes.

Also, he had his music being printed there, as he had recently broken his long-term partnership with publisher M.P. Belaieff due to financial discrepancies.
In his new peaceful household in Edifice C Place de la Harpe, Scriabin could play the piano without fear of complaints from neighbours, and soon began to compose again, alongside the revisions he was making to the score of Le Poème. On 8 December, Tatyana wrote to a friend:
“We go out a little, having caught up on our sleep. We begin to look normal again. Sasha even has begun to compose - 5th Sonata!!! I cannot believe my ears. It is incredible! That sonata pours from him like a fountain. Everything you have heard up to now is as nothing. You cannot even tell it is a sonata. Nothing compares to it. He has played it through several times, and all he has to do is to write it down [...].”
On late December, Scriabin wrote to Morozova about the imminent completion of his new work:
“The Poem of Ecstasy took much of my strength and taxed my patience. [...] Today I have almost finished my 5th Sonata. It is a big poem for piano and I deem it the best composition I have ever written. I do not know by what miracle I accomplished it [...].”
Although the actual writing took only six days, from 8 to 14 December 1907, some ideas had been conceived much earlier.

Another notebook from 1906 contains the Imperioso theme (mm. 96 ff.), while elements from the Meno vivo (mm. 120 ff.) can also be made out, as well as sketched-out passages for a few other sections.
Scriabin included an epigraph to this sonata, extracted from his essay Le Poème de l'Extase (this is an English tranlsation, you are able to read the original Russian text and the original French translation in the score):
“I call you to life, oh mysterious forces!
Drowned in the obscure depths
Of the creative spirit, timid
