In a distant place in the Swedish forest lies a village called the “tune” village there in the sunny meadow lies a red cottage built in the old manners of a Dalsland house. Red coulure, with white decor. A surrounding garden is a magical place with nooks and crannies just about big engulf for a house-elf or two. In the little pound you can on a sunny day spot the salamanders playing with the weather fairies. The enchanted creatures of the meadow is not the only thing living here, because here is the home of Gun-Britt Gustafsson Lector in jazz singing at the Royal collage in Stockholm, singer, artist, choir leader and concert producer. .bmc-button img{width: 35px !important;margin-bottom: 1px !important;box-shadow: none !important;border: none !important;vertical-align: middle !important;}.bmc-button{padding: 7px 10px 7px 10px !important;line-height: 35px !important;height:51px !important;min-width:217px !important;text-decoration: none !important;display:inline-flex !important;color:#000000 !important;background-color:#FFDD00 !important;border-radius: 5px !important;border: 1px solid transparent !important;padding: 7px 10px 7px 10px !important;font-size: 22px !important;letter-spacing: 0.6px !important;box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px rgba(190, 190, 190, 0.5) !important;-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 0px rgba(190, 190, 190, 0.5) !important;margin: 0 auto !important;font-family:'Cookie', cursive !important;-webkit-box-sizing: border-box !important;box-sizing: border-box !important;-o-transition: 0.3s all linear !important;-webkit-transition: 0.3s all linear !important;-moz-transition: 0.3s all linear !important;-ms-transition: 0.3s all linear !important;transition: 0.3s all linear !important;}.bmc-button:hover, .bmc-button:active, .bmc-button:focus {-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 0px rgba(190, 190, 190, 0.5) !important;text-decoration: none !important;box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 0px rgba(190, 190, 190, 0.5) !important;opacity: 0.85 !important;color:#000000 !important;}Buy me a coffee Today we are diving into Gun-Britts magical meadow.

He also went to the semi-finals in the famous Tchaikovsky competition, the jury that year was so divided that they could not name a winner. Attila works all over the world as a soloist but has his base in Vienna, Austria, where he takes care of producing the amazing Thomastik strings. He plays all kinds of music, classical to jazz, and when you first see him, his appearance is a very tall and muscular man that probably could be a bodyguard.

The man that taught me all the best things I know about cello playing: Profesor and solo cellist Niels Ullner. He is a Danish music animal that just spreads music in every step of his life. He has been working as a principal cellist since his twenties at Malmö Symphony orchestra. He is a cello professor and chamber music director at the Danish national conservatory in Odense. Just like the famous tale from the writer H.C. Andersen tells the story about the ugly duckling, Niels has the gift of seeing the inner swan in every person he meets. As a Cello teacher, he can get to know your hidden soul just by listening to your playing, as he slowly peels off the layers of duckling feathers, he awakes a beautiful swan in all of his students. I have always admired Niels ability to see other people's gift. In this episode you will get to go behind the scenes in the professional orchestra and learn about the unwritten orchestra rules, the does and don’t! Get a walk down memory lane to some of our times greatest cellist and Niels old teachers like Mstislav Rostropovich, Pierre Fournier, William Pleeth and some secret living locations of our most famous composers. I am so proud and grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from Niels and I like to give my strongest sincere recommendations to you who is listening to this episode and want to become an orchestra cellist. Niels Ullner is the most incredible teacher with more insight in to winning the jobs, competitions and finding the joy in professional cello playing. He has taught cellists like Jonathan Swensen, Mette Spang Hanssen, Mikolaj Blaszczyk (from Cello Brothers) and many more. In this episode we listen to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Pezzo Capriccioso, Malmö symphony orchestra and Niels Ullner.

During three decades Alban Faust has performed on prominent folk music scenes throughout Europe, both as a soloist and with different bands. He has also built instruments and developed their design to a new level and brought back old traditional instrument from the dead. The instruments he makes are Swedish bagpipes and he has created his own design on the Nyckel harp called Alban Fast that is made in Vienna. His musical programs are varied and are adapted to every musical occasion. Alban's instruments, the keyed-fiddle and the bagpipes invite the audiences to an amazing journey through his home district in Sweden:From the polkas' magical rhythm, over the majestic harmonies of the wedding march to the melancholic sadness of the ballad. Music from the past or music Alban him self composed. Sometimes Alban spice the performance with ballads accompanied on the guitar In 2009 Alban Faust got The Zorn brand in silver, which gives him the right to title himself the national player.

Corona times and we are all locked up in our houses, concerts are cancelled and we are asking what should we do now? I have made a smaller episode where I share some of our podcast's eminent and brilliant guest's advice. Susanne Schimack talks about rejection and a singer's daily challenges in practising, Fenna Ograjensik talks about how music affects your brain and body. We get the best advice from Peter Powell and his strategies to make and get concerts, Eric Diteren talks about how to build a good business. Morten shares his secrets as a conductor with us on how to make an orchestra sound brilliant. It is a short cut into the episodes and it might spread some light into the dark times we are facing. You can listen to the entire episodes in full length, for free, below. Use the time to make yourself strong and to do all the things you never had time to do that is involving self-isolation.

For today’s episode we are going to meet a living composer, Vykintas Baltakas. He is an intriguing and fascinating composer and conductor. He origins from Lithuania, studied in Karlsruhe with Wolfgang Rihm and Conducting with Andreas Weiss. He has conducted the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Ensemble Modern, and Klangforum Wien. He has participated in competitions and had amazing results, Peter Eötvös describes him like this: “What is remarkable about Vykintas Baltakas is his own brusque, harsh, very attentive and confident demeanour, his personal musical language, sometimes amusingly brittle, always explorative, always active and professional. His constant development, the versatility of his artistic creativity and his permanently progressive musical stance have encouraged me to nominate him for this prestigious prize.” Conservatorium Maastricht, where he is the composing teacher, describes him as musical Scheherazade. His music keeps pulling you in and referencing itself, sometimes branching off and reinventing itself, and sometimes returning to where it started. He weaves musical stories that are linked with a delicate interconnected web. Peter Eötvös In this episode we talk about how to compose music. How to find your inner personality, what makes good music and great musicians. What he thinks are the keys to composing. We also talk about the future and what it will bring, how to communicate and much more. I didn’t want this interview to end because It was so thrilling. Ladys and gentlemen now we are going to dive into the musical universe of Vykintas Baltakas, he describes it like: A bright scherzo, (co)ro(na) for small ensemble. From Ouroboros, he took the fermata in measure 313 and used that as the sonic object as the seed. The title is a little misleading in that we may mistakenly think of a fermata (or corona) as just a pause, but fermatas are full of energy at multiple levels, almost like watching a hummingbird hovering in the distance – they seem almost moti...

Today's episode is inviting us to the little village of Mersele in Belgium. Next to Antwerpen, the city of diamonds, lies the atelier of Anton Somers. It is a magical place where wood transforms to a singing work of art. Anton Somers, born in 1986, is a young violinmaker with an enormous passion for wood. He studied to become a furniture maker but then one day his family led him into the fine work of instrument making and Anton studied violin making in Antwerpen and now he is a violin maker and a teacher in violin making at the ILSA violin making school in Antwerp. His instruments are sold in Paris at Guy Coquoz or in London at Sean bishop. Anton shares some of his best trade secrets and his passion for varnishes and making different kinds of pigment on the wood in this episode. We also talk about how to take good care of instruments. Anton Somers' instruments are played on by many great instrumentalists. You can hear the cellist Wojciech Fudala, playing a live recording of Antonín Dvořák : Rondo in G minor op. 94in this episode. You might know him from the Elisabeth competition in Brussels. Wojciech also released a new CD with cello and piano music by Mieczyslaw Weinberg (Wajnberg: Sonatas for Cello and Piano; DUX1545).

Jakob Spahn: the young Solo cellist of the Bavarian State Opera, the Zlatan of the cello. He has won awards and travelled the world sharing his music and now he is a welcome guest in Master in Music. Jakob is smart, charming and creative. With his new CD recording of Gulda cello concerto, he brings classical music to the next technical level with a innovative 3D recording. He tells us how an app is on the way where you can zoom in and listen closer to the different instruments in the orchestra, and as you zoom the sound of that instrument gets louder. Pretty awesome! In this episode he also gives us his best advice in how to win an orchestra audition, what the difference is between winning that job or not. If you want to learn more from Jakob apply for this year’s masterclass in audition training at Rutesheim Cello Akademie, the highlight of the autumn.

She is a Musician, Podcaster and Teacher and here are some of her tips on living a musicians life. Who is interviewing, you wonder, since Petronella is being interviewed? Wiekie Stouten. She wrote to Master in Music and asked if she could interview Petronella and naturally, we said yes and why not make an episode out of it. Wiekie is currently making her first Master in Solo Singing at the Conservatorium in Tilburg as a Mezzo-Soprano.

Today I present for you the second amazing episode from Rutesheim special. Rutesheim is a village in Germany where the Rutesheim cello festival is taking place every autumn right around my birthday. The applications have just been open for this year’s festival and what better way to celebrate this, than an interview from one of the eminent professors, Claudio Bohórquez. He is a soloist, a chamber musician, teacher and very good at table tennis. One of Rutesheim’s champions if you ask me. I was very nervous to ask him to participate in the podcast, I mean it is almost to good to be true that he said yes. He is not only an awesome cellist, he also has a warm personality. Claudio studied with the legendary cellist Boris Pergamenschikow. On his way to become a great cellist he was successful in a lot of fantastic competitions like the Rostropovich competition in Paris, the Tchaikovsky youth competition and he achieved three awards in the Pablo Casals competition. A competition that was under the roof of the Kronberg Academy. Marta Casals Istomin presented Claudio Bohórquez with the first prize, a special award for the best chamber music, and also the use of Casals’ Gofriller cello for a period of two years. He also won first prize at the International Music Competition in Geneva, an achievement that started his career as a soloist. Today he is part of the competitions as a member of the jury. He is also a professor and has taught at the Musikhochschule Stuttgart and is now appointed to teach at the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" in Berlin. Claudio still wins a lot of prices and awards but these days for his CD recordings. He has also recorded a soundtrack by Paul English to the film "Ten Minutes Older - The Cello", which was shown in theatres worldwide. He travels the world and plays as a soloist with orchestras like the Wiener Symphonic, Tokyo Philharmonic orchestra, Los Angeles Symphonic and many, many more. He is a busy man, but we managed to get an interview with him and now we are going to listen to his latest release, the Cello sonata by Johannes Brahms with his friend and college on the piano Peter Nagy. Op 99 Sonata in F major Allegro Vivace, enjoy. Cello-Akademie-Rutesheim.de ClaudioBohorquez.com Facebook Instagram

Spring has come to the Netherlands! It is tulips everywhere and I just came home from a rainy Paris where I had the pleasure to play in the centre Wallonia Brussels. I hope where ever you are listening to this podcast, that the winds of spring have reached you as well. In today's episode, my guest is a man who really loves to work. He started out as a Psychologist and then one day he and his brother, who is a violin player, started an orchestra and bought a church to practise in. He has represented big stars as a music manager and arranged concerts all over Europe. Right now he is managing the Drummers in Slagerij van Kampen. He is the musical coordinator of the music school Kumulus and works with the Bonnefanten museum here in Maastricht. Hold on this is not all, he is also owner, founder and director of ICON entertainment. In this episode we talk about how to succeed in the music world. What does a manager look for in a musician, what to do and what not to do, we talk about success and failure. We also discuss how a good music school looks like and what makes a good teacher. What does he look for when he hires new staff? I love this episode and it is so interesting to listen to someone that dares to dream big and realises his dreams.

This is an extra episode that I like to add in a special edition: the Rutesheim cello academy edition. I had the pleasure of attending for the second year in a row the "Akademie Rutesheim Cello Festival" in Germany and naturally I took my podcast equipment with me when I had some of the world's best cellists within my reach. Today's guest in the Pod is no one else than Matthias Trück, a cellist and the festival leader and founder himself. He is an extraordinary person who has steered this festival for 10 years and built it up from zero to something that I like to call Cello heaven. It is seven days full of great concerts every evening with different constellations of chamber music and orchestral pieces for cello. The days are full of Masterclasses with eight different professors who are super cello stars. I had the pleasure to interview 6 of them and some of the great students attending the festival. The festival also contains a Music fair with a lot of instrument builders, string companies and much much more. It is everything from Cello orchestra, classical cello to jazz masterclass. I was so happy that Matthias Trück let me interview some of the professors and himself in this interview. Where he tells some of the keys to a great festival, what is important and tips on how to create contacts. Before we start, I'd like to thank our Partners: A Swedish cellistStudent Radio MaastrichtGuest partner Rutesheim cello Akademie Now let’s hear some music from Matthias cello quartet Quatrocelli in an arrangement from the quartet itself and after the interview, we can listen to what the students have to say about the festival and to one of the performances from the festival by 13-year-old cello student Jizheng Fang performing Elfendanze.
