<br />
<br />De ce Radio Tv Unirea?
<br />http://www.radiotvunirea.com/
<br />
<br />
<br />Am simţit şi filtrat prin propria respiraţie aerul tare al străinătaţii călătorind şi trăind în diferite colţuri ale lumii.
<br />
<br />Mulţi dintre noi au avut nevoie să se refere strict cu “acasa ” atunci când era vorba de România sau de valenţele ei spirituale, patrimoniale sau afective pe care le reprezintă.
<br />Cu timpul am adăugat acestui sens de “acasa”elementele locului in care fiecare işi trăieşte miracolul redescoperirii şi unde revenim din fiecare călătorie cu plăcerea unui ‘’acasa’’ adoptiv.
<br />
<br />Vine apoi un timp când descoperim că putem călători în lume purtând România în suflet , înnobilată de sensul unirii în suflet şi simţiri a 10-15 milioane de români indiferent de meridianul pe care ne aflăm.
<br />Pentru ca sunt multe lucruri care ne unesc la bucurii sau la tristeţi, pe noi toţi acesti români risipiti in lume, noi luam lucrurile aşa cum sunt rămânând verticali si răzbind să facem rădăcini acolo unde ne-am stabilit.
<br />
<br />În primul rând dorul acesta ancestral de acasă de locul acela în care totul se petrecea mai uşor, mai in siguranţa, în cauşul cald oferit de familie si prieteni. Apoi faptul că împărtăşim aceasta verticalitate a românului trăitor în credinţa strămoşească pe care o poartă cu el oriunde radiind încredere în sine şi în oameni indiferent de cât de deasa ar fii pădurea umană in care viata ne conduce.
<br /> Să nu uităm apoi această nesfârşită potenţialitate a creativităţii româneşti care ne ajută să ne raportăm la existenţă intr-un adevărat spirit entuziast şi original adaptându-ne cu generozitate mediului care ne oferă siguranţa traiului de zi cu zi.
<br />Şi dincolo de toate acestea ne uneşte o imensă responsabilitate faţa de noi inşine si faţă de ceea ce lăsăm in urmă. Căci suntem 10-15 milioane
<br />de români in diaspora chiar dacă cifrele diferă în functie de sursa statisticilor, noi reuşim să rămânem uniţi, puternici şi vizibili chiar dacă nu avem un guvern, o armată sau o reprezentare consistentă în structurile statale româneşti, care să ne gestioneze reuşitele sau mai nereuşitele unor vieţi trecătoare dar perene.
<br />Caci ceea ce avem este responsabilitatea solidarităţii noastre pentru ca spiritul românesc sa dăinuie în lume cu demnitate , cu respect si perenitate.
<br />Pentru că acestă conştiinţă de sine există cu forţa identităţii naţionale individuale oglindite într-o lume din ce in ce mai mult multiculturală, pentru că existăm in aceste condiţii in lume , pentru aceasta Radio Tv Unirea există şi vă aşteaptă alături la acest început de drum.

It was one of 87 projects selected by the European Commission out of 298 for its recent cultural programmes.

The four composers came to London from the US, Romania, Italy and Croatia, to hear the World Premieres of their works. They had a very satisfying time with us and we have now recorded their works for the first CD of the project. <br /> <br />Next week, on 22 July at 6pm we are holding a seminar with musical illustrations at 72 Warwick Gardens, followed by a buffet party. The event will be presented by myself, the London Schubert Players and the 78 years-old Swedish composer of German origin, Eberhard Eyser.

For Anda Anastasescu, LSP’s<br />founder and artistic director, the inspiration for the project came as a result of difficulties<br />experienced in finding quality works for specific instrumental combinations.<br />“For 18 years, as a professional performing group we encountered difficulties in<br />programming a number of great chamber works by Schubert, Mendelssohn, Saint-Saëns,<br />Messiaen and Enescu – because they are each written for a specific instrumental<br />combination for which no other noted composer has so far written. In addition, we were<br />seduced by the idea of performing interesting combinations which the standard European<br />repertoire does not offer,” explains Anda.<br />The project is a partnership between the UK, France and Romania. It includes the<br />organization of concerts, seminars, workshops and conferences in all three countries, with<br />performances and presentations of the most inspired of the new works submitted to the<br />project. For this project, the LSP is collaborating with the Romanian Cultural Institute in Paris<br />and the Asociata Info Manager (AIM) in Bucharest. The official launch of the project in<br />London was held on 31 March 2010 at the Royal Academy of Music (RAM) in the presence<br />of Philip Cashian, Head of Composition at the RAM and a very influential figure in musical<br />composition..<br /><br />A rich selection<br />A total of 22 works were selected during the first year of the project, submitted by composers<br />from 11 countries (Belarus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Norway, Romania,<br />Sweden, UK and the US). The works were inspired by four models: Schubert’s Trout Quintet<br />for piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass; Mendelssohn’s concerto for solo piano, solo<br />violin and string quintet; Saint-Saens septet for trumpet, piano and string quintet; and<br />Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps for piano, violin, clarinet and cello.<br />Norwegian composer, Bj¢rn Bolstad Skjelbred, saw in the ‘Invitation to Composers’ project<br />something different from the many other calls for scores and invitations to composers. “This<br />project stood out from the others because of its reference to specific pieces of music,<br />composers and instrumental combinations, and because of the musical calibre of its models.<br />The main motivation for my contribution to the project was imagining a piece of my own<br />music being compared to or put next to a landmark piece.”<br />For UK composer, Drew Wilson, the ‘models’ also provided an immediate creative impetus,<br />while leaving a free reign to the imagination: ”It will be very interesting to hear the different<br />approaches taken from the same starting point, especially given the very diverse cultural<br />backgrounds of the composers taking part.”<br />The composers will also have the opportunity to meet each other at the various events and<br />concerts organised. This is expected to provide further scope for the exchange of ideas and<br />comparison of musical approaches. “Cultural exchange in one's own field is always<br />interesting and instructive. Those of us from different countries will be the product of different<br />teaching and to some extent aesthetic environments, which throw a revealing light on one's<br />own preferences and - yes - prejudices, which hopefully get reduced as we are better<br />informed!” notes Drew.<br /><br />Linking past and present<br />As well as filling gaps in Europe’s musical repertoire and enriching it with new and<br />interesting pieces from across the continent, the project also serves as a bridge between<br />past and contemporary composition.<br />“The project aims to create a new dimension in the art of composing in the field of classical<br />music,” says Anda. ”It inspires and provokes composers' imagination and skills to transmute<br />some of the greatest European musical ideas of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries into the<br />21st – providing a direct connection between great European musical traditions and<br />contemporary thought.”<br />A fundamental premise of the project is that the new pieces will be played alongside the<br />‘model’ they were inspired by. This is expected to bring new attention and a fresh eye to the<br />older pieces. “Somehow, you hear new things in them when they are set against the<br />contemporary compositions,” adds Anda. “They seem more modern, more courageous, and<br />you can imagine how it was when they were first composed.”<br />For the composers, too, the approach chosen fosters an appreciation of the past. “Through<br />this link with important compositions of the past, contemporary musicians can identify with<br />the West’s extraordinary musical tradition,” notes Roberto Brisotto (Italy), who based his<br />composition – Evocations Rituelles – on Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps.<br /><br />Collaborative creation<br />Another key aspect of the project is the close collaboration between the musicians and the<br />composers. For the composer Ivan Božičević (Croatia), concerned by contemporary music’s<br />tendency to focus on complexity over beauty, this was a major consideration: “It seemed to<br />me that the ‘Invitation to Composers’ contained a genuine quest for beauty in new music.<br />The works were to be judged by future performers themselves, not by some complexityseeking<br />composer peers.”<br />The close collaboration between the musicians and the composers is appreciated by all<br />those involved. “For most composers, access to musicians is pretty limited,” says Drew<br />Wilson. “Having the opportunity to hear your piece played, participate in rehearsals and get<br />feedback from the players is really quite exciting. Sometimes things are not quite as you<br />imagined them, or are even not possible in practice. The interaction with the musicians<br />allows you to adapt the piece, refine it, before it is actually performed in front of the public.”<br />For the musicians, too, the exchange with the composers is very satisfying. Violin and viola<br />player, Ricardo Zwietisch, will be performing many of the new pieces with the London<br />Schubert Players: “It is very motivating to be discovering completely new pieces of music<br />and being able to get direct feedback from the composers themselves. It allows a creative<br />collaboration which helps to shape the piece and enrich the musical interpretation.”<br />As a viola player, he is also very pleased to see the creation of new pieces for viola. “There<br />are very few classical pieces written for the viola, so these new pieces will be an important<br />addition to the viola repertoire.”<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXnifaXYjWePuiMT_2kOXNFsLjMYfsyE_42AFlyhl2Koi7Jv6bYnBkbYKdgAUoWmNsHzTCsFHv3xJdUg4Fw8T5H50yj8Xjrnfzzyz7hJDtEW2RBHIqkeBIxLLB-yY8Nw2dvRGZ5i1G46g/s1600/IMG_0074.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXnifaXYjWePuiMT_2kOXNFsLjMYfsyE_42AFlyhl2Koi7Jv6bYnBkbYKdgAUoWmNsHzTCsFHv3xJdUg4Fw8T5H50yj8Xjrnfzzyz7hJDtEW2RBHIqkeBIxLLB-yY8Nw2dvRGZ5i1G46g/s400/IMG_0074.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5495163840919176354" /></a><br /><br />The Invitation to Composers project is coordinated by Anda Anatasescu, founder and<br />artistic director of the London Schubert Players’ Chamber Orchestra.
