Newsletter: March 1, 2023
As of February 28th the Discography Database and the Bruckner Archive Database have been updated. The underlined headlines below will take you to the various sections of the website where the bullet points below are featured. Please use these as guides to the new information offered since the last newsletter. Newsletter - March 1, 2023 There are two events that are taking place this spring that I would like to highlight, once again, this month. The first is the Bruckner Readers Conference which will be taking place on April 7-8 at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. Traditionally, this conference has taken place in Oxford, England, but since the Bruckner Journal editorship is now in the very capable hands of Dr. Michael Cucka, the venue has changed to the USA. It should also be noted that The Bruckner Journal is now becoming the "print arm" of the Bruckner Society of America. Dr. Cucka has been planning this conference for several years and he has been working with Professor Paul Hawkshaw of Yale in preparing this event. Prof. Hawkshaw has been actively involved in the preparation of the New Bruckner Edition. An additional attraction at this event is the premiere performance of the Bruckner Symphony No. 7 in the New Bruckner Edition as prepared by Paul Hawkshaw. Peter Oundjian will lead the Yale Philharmonia (Woolsey Hall, New Haven on Thursday, April 6th.) Information on how to register for the conference can be found here, The second event worth noting is a performance of the Bruckner Symphony No. 5 by the Albany Symphony Orchestra on March 11-12 at the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall in Troy, New York. At first glance, this may look like an unremarkable event, but the Troy Music Hall, despite its name and location, happens to be one of the best acoustical concert halls in the world. World famous musicians have made it a point to perform there simply because of the acoustics. It is going to be a sonic spectacular. And to make it more enticing the Albany Symphony Orchestra is offering a 50% discount to abruckner.com readers. More information is available here. Finally, The Austrian National Library and the Austrian Academy of Sciences is calling for papers for their April, 2024 symposium entitled, Aspects of Bruckner: 200 Years of Bruckner - 100 Years of Bruckner Research., Information can be downloaded from the "Latest News" section.
