Recording this particular disc and bringing together all Dittersdorf's compositions for the double bass has therefore been particularly satisfying at a number of levels: it firstly realizes my youthful commitment to exploring, performing and recording all of Dittersdorf's works for the instrument, and it has secondly afforded me the privilege of recording with The Academy of St Martin in the Fields, the orchestra which I look upon as my musical home\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConcerto No. 1 for double bass and orchestra, Krebs 171\u003cbr\u003e1.

Sung-Suk accompanied Leon during lessons and at scholarship auditions. 'At the end of our courses of study,' Leon remembers, 'the RNCM principal, Sir John Manduell, invited us to play two pieces together in one of the so-called principal's concerts. These were showcase events in which his ‘prize students’ were afforded a platform to perform in front of an audience of many distinguished invited guests, as well as the public. Sung-Suk and I performed two pieces by the great double bass player Bottesini, the Capriccio di Bravura and Fantasy Sonnambula. 'I'll remember that 1984 concert forever, for Sung-Suk’s magical playing throughout. There was one extended piano tutti in Sonnambula which was particular memorable for its unique delicacy and scintillating effervescence.' Sung-Suk picks up the story. 'After we left the RNCM, Leon and I lost contact with each other for twenty years. Then in the autumn of 2006, all of a sudden I received an SMS message from Leon on my mobile.....out of the blue. I called him back and discovered that at short notice he wanted me to play for him on a CD of pieces by Bottesini. After exchanging a few emails, I agreed.’ So what had inspired Leon to make the move? 'After Sung-Suk and I parted company back in 1984 I always thought of her whenever I played Sonnambula. I often wondered what had happened to her. I have a tape recording of that principal's concert and played it often over the years to reassure myself that it was indeed real and not just a grossly exaggerated and romanticized memory! 'Then when I was scheduled to record my first Bottesini disc, my pianist had to withdraw. After much thought, I resolved to try and find Sung-Suk, since she was the only person I felt I'd really be happy to work with. I put her name into Google and found her referred to on the website of the conductor, Nayden Todorov. With that lead, I traced her to Vienna.’ 'We began to rehearse as soon as I arrived in London!' Sung-Suk recalls. 'There wasn`t enough time to work on each piece in detail.... and we only had one and a half days to record all the repertoire for the CD.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRead an interview about Leon Bosch’s recording project at Leon Bosch Interview\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack list:\u003cbr\u003eGiovanni Bottesini\u003cbr\u003e1.

It has always been my mission in life to defend the cause of the underdog and my passion for the double bass, the ‘Cinderella’ of instruments, will never die. Every note I play on the instrument embraces my life experiences, both in Europe and in my South African homeland. I’ve known love and comradeship, but also witnessed the epitome of hatred. I’ve felt both shining optimism and deep despair. I’ve benefited from the pleasures of civilized society, but also seen the destructive impact of poverty and ignorance. I’ve been privileged to stand side by side with people who’ve lost their lives in the defense of their principles. It’s difficult to explain exactly how life’s experiences distil into your music-making, but they most certainly do. First you have to face the fact that playing well is 98% perspiration – all the hard work that’s done in private. But then, when the day of the performance arrives, you’re looking to access that other, magical 2%, which is all about freedom and spontaneity – improvisation, almost. And what you have to draw on is the story of your life – in feelings, emotions and colors. What you hope is that thereby you link to the mind of the composer. No phrase, or even a single note, should be allowed to pass by perfunctorily …it’s the performer’s solemn duty to seek to understand what the composer intended and then to express that unique personal understanding as if one’s very life depended upon it.

Through this recording Leon Bosch pays a personal tribute to his first influential double bass teacher, Hungarian Zoltan Kovats who has lived in South Africa since 1965. An inspiring teacher at the College of Music in Cape Town, Mr. Kovats, now a member for the World Orchestra for Peace, writes that \"the strongest influence of the Hungarian bass school originated from Viennese and Czech bass players like Franz Simandl, Josef Hrabĕ, Eduard Madenski, Adolf Misek and Josef Emmanuel Storch, among others.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLeon’s selected repertoire reflects this influential history of Hungarian double bass pedagogy, and highlights the history and close geographical proximity of its players. Looking back through time a musical link is made between Montag and Simandl – as Montag studied with Bertalen Tintner, who in turn studied with Simandl in Vienna. And further back, as Simandl studied with Hrabĕ at the Prague Conservatoire between 1855 -1862, firstly becoming principle double bassist at the Vienna Court Orchestra and then at Bayreuth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo this connection is made in the choice of the music, through Leon’s original arrangements of Liszt’s powerful \"La Lugugbre Gondola\" to the performance of more standard repertoire such as the Austrian influence in Takács’ Old Hungarian “Hofballmusik”, from Bartók’s “Sonatina on Transylvanian Themes”, again a new transcription, to “Extreme” by Montag himself. Operatic, wild changes of character and mood within “Extreme” recalls that “nagybogo”, the Hungarian word used for “double bass”, can be translated literally as “the big screamer”, meaning one who cries with tears, abundant tears flowing, as Hungarian colleagues of mine pointed out, it is howling out of control like a child, or even an animal!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRead an interview about Leon Bosch’s recording project at Leon Bosch Interview\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eZoltán Kodály\u003cbr\u003e1.

The music on this CD is true to Romantic, virtuosic instrumental writing for the Salon, which made use of a flourishing operatic language. The color of Valls' compositions comes from a sensibility to 'bel canto' but remains true and idiomatic to local song forms. The second Fantasia, \"Il Fantasia para Contrabajo\" displays this within the choice of theme for variation. Rather than employing a famous theme originating in Grand Opera as Bottesini did, Valls uses a less grand and expansive theme but wholly authentic to his known idiom, a theme reminiscent of Zarzuela and local song.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLeon Bosch on discovering the music of Pedro Valls':\u003cbr\u003eIn June 2009 I heard Thomas Martin perform Suite Andaluza in a recital at the International Society of Bassists convention. I had obliquely heard the name of Pedro Valls before, but it really didn't mean much to me at that time. Tom's performance was my first experience of hearing Pedro Valls' music and there were certain things I loved about both the music and indeed Tom's performance. Elements of the music remained embedded in my unconscious memory, periodically bubbling to the surface. A few months later I felt compelled to try to find the music and it soon became apparent that this was going to be a little more complicated than I had at first envisaged, but writing a few letters and e-mails and ringing round did the trick.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRead an interview about Leon Bosch’s recording project at Leon Bosch Interview\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack listing:\u003cbr\u003e1.

The repertoire spans a historical period of enormous political changes and not least compositions from a period of extreme uncertainty when artists such as Rachmaninov, Glière, and Koussevitzky lived. Such was the outlook of the time that their direct contemporary and philosopher Beryaev wrote “Never before were Russians so acutely aware of the illimitable unknown surrounding human life” “of the mystery and the terrifying abyss with which man is faced” (Dream and Reality).

James Farber and I go back to the late 70’s at UW-Madison during his playing days. He has distinguished himself as having some of the best ears in the business and I am grateful to have his expertise in recording these songs. Rick Germanson and Billy Hart were invaluable with their contributions.

He was a friend and mentor to all the thousands of students who had the good fortune to communicate and study with him. Charlie possessed a brilliant mind and intuitive nature, which allowed him the ability to read, minds somewhat. In turn he would know the exact, correct thing for a student to practice. He also was very conscious of the body and how to approach an instrument such that you would not injure yourself through an un-natural repetitive motion of the wrist, fingers, arms etc. I began my journey with Charlie Banacos in 1982 at which time my name reached the top of his 2+ year waiting list. Oddly, I still do not recall ever putting my name on the list. People I knew who studied with him told me, “Your name came up and you should call Charlie.” For the next six years I went weekly for my lesson with Charlie. I loved being part of Charlie’s magical way of creating group consciousness through his ear training. He would say positive things about you to another student and you would indirectly get Charlie’s encouragement and support away from the lesson. His positive attitude was contagious.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrack list:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.
