Natürlich brauchte das eine Zugabe ... mehr als eine aber nach der ersten langen, musste ich leider gehen, um den Zug zu erwischen (Kulturschock: der war voll mit Fussballfans, anscheinend gab's gestern ein Testländerspiel CH-DE in Basel, aber sowas krieg ich nicht mit). Keller, die schon vor dem Solo-Set eine längere Ansage gemacht hatte und selbst verfasste "Liner Notes" bzw. ein Konzertprogramm auf den Tischchen im Bird's Eye verteilen liess, sprach nochmal zum Publikum, erzählte, wie der Hidden Track von "Hidden Heartaches", "Good Morning Heartache" von Irene Higginbotham mit Flury, als Abschluss des Soloprogrammes) zustande gekommen sei, im Stadthaus Winterthur: man spielte einen Take, es war so toll, dass sie noch einen spielten und noch einen und am Ende ganz viele hatten (zwei Dutzend oder so), alle anders - und fünf davon als Loop auf die CD kamen. Gestern gab es nur einen Take, aber einen enorm berührenden, langen - und gekoppelt war der an das Schubert-Lied, das Flury als sein allerliebstes vorstellte, die "Litanei auf das Fest Allerseelen" (hier ähnlich berührend mit Konstantin Krimmel). Das war wohl fast nochmal eine Viertelstunde, und es gab wenigstens noch eine Zugabe mehr, aber eben: die musste ich leider verpassen.
Am Ende war das Unbekannte, das, was ich nicht vorhersehen konnte - nämlich Kellers zwei Sets - nochmal eine Spur schöner als die zwei Sets vom Trio von Melford. Ich bin aber fast sicher, dass das Trio heute im Club nochmal ein paar Gänge hochschalten wird. Die Intakt @ 40 Aktivitäten gehen weiter - in zwei Wochen in Zürich, auch auf drei Tage verteilt, von denen ich mir den dritten Abend mit zwei Duos in den Kalender geschrieben habe: nach Angelika Niescier/María Portugal sind Alexander Hawkins/Hamid Drake zu hören. Da müsste dann Irène im Publikum sitzen. Geht leider nicht mehr, am im Geist wird sie dort sein, das ist ganz klar.
Myra Melford Sox2 und Simone Keller "Just for a Thrill".

album cover, Shibe in an empty room with a white wall and a beige floor, all dressed in white and barefoot, with what looks like color pigment (or flour) on his left hand, while holding a painted acoustic guitar in his right
Album cover with a black-and-white portrait photo of Solal sitting on some kind of bench and holding her guitar, looking into the camera. The background is blurry and looks like a tree, branches, leaves, there might be water (the sea?) in the background. The photo looks as if it could be a hundred or more years old
#NowListening to some brand new guitar music. On his new album "Vesper" Sean Shibe plays Adès, Birtwistle & Dillon. "RIO" by Gaëlle Solal combines concertos by Villa-Lobos & Clarice Assad w/arrangements by Chiquinha Gonzaga & Ernesto Nazareth.

Here is a lovely performance of Valerie White's 1888 setting of Byron's 1817 poem "So We'll Go No More A-Roving" from soprano Jessica Cale. The little tonal shifts are just so exquisite. Enjoy!

Today's #WomenInMusic Spotlight features Maude Valérie White (1855-1937), who we continue to cherish for her musical settings of classic English poetry, including the work of Byron and Shelley, harnessing classical structures to deftly portray the shifts and subtleties in the words.

Today's #WomenInMusic Spotlight features Marianna Martines (1744-1812), a gifted performer who was sponsored early on by Metastasio and given her early lessons by a young Joseph Haydn, and went on to be a composer of masses, keyboard sonatas, and oratorios.

Today's Women In Music Spotlight features Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677), the prolific 17th century composer who took a very modern narrative approach to the song form, releasing eight collections of madrigals, cantatas, and arias in the 1620s through 1640s.
