The Latvian Academy of Music is endowed with a unique instrument: the predecessors of contemporary pianos, called hammer clovers, to which Mozart and his contemporaries played simultaneously, parallel to the harpsichord. The instrument invented in the middle of the 18th century opens new possibilities for music of this age and gives a more accurate picture of its old sound. The listeners will be able to know it Sunday at the Little Guild.
In the hall of the early music department of the Academy of Music, there are hammer clovers who have just moved back to Riga from Germany. It is a copy of the model "Stein" of 1780, on which Ernests Neimanis, a student in Vienna, will also play the piano at the concert Sunday.
"This instrument is suitable for this music and I really like it, which is why I like the clbadics of Mozart and Vienna on this instrument," says a musician. "The sounds are different, as well as the technique, very detailed details can be displayed on this instrument.In my opinion, the modern piano has a lot of sound and less clarity.Of course, it is possible to play any type of modern piano, but on this instrument, it seems to me that it comes naturally and simply, "says the musician. In Vienna, he can play several types of historical pianos, but at the Latvian Music Academy, they are the first.
"After 10 years, we could still turn some of the new instruments," says Māris Kupès, head of the early music department of the Academy of Music, responsible for the purchase of hammer clovers and two comrades of clbadicist clbad.
With the help of the Cultural Capital Foundation, hammerheads made in Germany about 40 years ago as a copy of the historic instrument.
"It was the best copy of the Stein instrument and it was very important for me to have this model.The sound is different from the most famous Walter pianos, made by a much cheaper master and therefore more popular at Vienna: Mozart himself could not afford the "Stein" model that he liked so much – he was forced to buy a used Walter instrument, "Kupchs said.
The Hammu Skilver musical scene dates back to the 18th century and its name emphasizes the difference with the harpsichord: they are sliced instead of mechanically burst feathers that cut the rope, but the small hammers that hit it. Maris Kupès recognizes that he dreams of percussion drills since the 80s.
"And the young people who will now be able to learn this instrument, the singers who can sing with solos or play in sets – it's completely different.It's a priceless thing! I'm terribly happy," he said. said the head of the early music department.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his inspiring music, Johan Schober's little-known music in Latvia, will be on the program of the Sunday concerts in the Little Guild.
"Shobeer is a Frenchman born in Germany, who spent most of his life in Paris and is considered a pianist of the beginnings inspired in France.Martart met him in the Parisian journey and was frightened by his music, his talents and his his ideas The path of this musician could have gone on in a completely different direction, unless he was so unhappy in his death.This is one of the sad deaths of musicians – he loved to eat mushrooms … "Maris Kupès introduces herself to a colorful story with the personality of Shawber.
Shobere and Mozart will perform with the Baroque Orchestra Collegium Musicum Riga under the direction of Mara Kupča, young harpsichordists Gertrude Jeromenko and Ernests Neimanis, and soprano Elīna Šimkus will participate in the historical clarinet of the play, Jānis Tretijūks.
