EHNES

James Ehnes has established himself as

one of the most sought-after violinists on

the international stage. Gifted with a rare

combination of stunning virtuosity, serene

lyricism and an unfaltering musicality,

Ehnes is a favourite guest of many of the

world’s most respected conductors including

Vladimir Ashkenazy, Marin Alsop, Andrew

Davis, Stéphane Denève, Mark Elder,

Iván Fischer, Edward Gardner, Paavo Järvi,

Juanjo Mena, Gianandrea Noseda, David

Robertson and Donald Runnicles. Ehnes’s

long list of orchestras he has worked with

include the Boston, Chicago, London, NHK

and Vienna symphony orchestras, the Los

Angeles, New York, Munich and Czech

philharmonic orchestras, and the Cleveland,

Philadelphia, Philharmonia and DSO

Berlin orchestras.

In 2021, Ehnes was announced as the

recipient of the coveted Artist of the Year

title in the 2021 Gramophone Awards which

celebrated his recent contributions to the

recording industry. This includes the launch

of a new online recital series entitled ‘Recitals

from Home’ which was released in June

2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic

and subsequent closure of concert halls.

Ehnes recorded the six Bach Sonatas and

Partitas and six Sonatas of Ysaÿe from his

home with state-of-the-art recording equipment

and released six episodes over the

period of two months. These recordings

have been met with great critical acclaim

CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS

by audiences worldwide and Ehnes was described

by Le Devoir as being "at the absolute

forefront of the streaming evolution".

Recent orchestral highlights include

the MET Orchestra at Carnegie Hall with

Gianandrea Noseda, Gewandhausorchester

Leipzig with Alexander Shelley, San

Francisco Symphony with Marek Janowski,

Frankfurt Radio Symphony with Andrés

Orozco-Estrada, London Symphony with

Daniel Harding, and Munich Philharmonic

with Jaap van Zweden. In 2017, Ehnes premiered

the Aaron-Jay Kernis Violin Concerto

with the Toronto, Seattle and Dallas

symphony orchestras, and gave further performances

of the piece with the Deutsches

Symphonie-Orchester and Melbourne

Symphony Orchestra. Throughout the

21/22 season, Ehnes is named as Artist

in Residence with the National Arts Centre

of Canada.

Alongside his concerto work, Ehnes

maintains a busy recital schedule. He performs

regularly at the Wigmore Hall, Carnegie

Hall, Symphony Center Chicago, Amsterdam

Concertgebouw, Ravinia, Montreux,

Chaise-Dieu, the White Nights Festival in

St Petersburg, Verbier Festival, Festival de

Pâques in Aix, and in 2018 he undertook a

recital tour to the Far East, including perfor-

mances in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore

and Kuala Lumpur. In 2016, Ehnes undertook

a cross-Canada recital tour, performing

in each of the country’s provinces and

territories, to celebrate his 40th birthday.

As part of the Beethoven celebrations,

Ehnes was invited to perform the complete

cycle of Beethoven Sonatas at the Wigmore

Hall in 2019/20. His third and final instalment

of Beethoven Violin Sonatas recordings

with Andrew Armstrong was released

by Onyx in 2020 and was given a glowing

review by Gramophone: “[Ehnes gave us]

the flawless technique, the purity of his

sound, and the extent to which everything

always feels elegant and just right, with no

attention-grabbing quirks or determined

originalities… a huge spectrum of colour

and articulation [is] employed”.

As a chamber musician, he has collaborated

with leading artists such as Leif Ove

Andsnes, Renaud Capuçon, Louis Lortie,

Nikolai Lugansky, Yo-Yo Ma, Antoine Tamestit,

Jan Vogler, Inon Barnatan and Yuja

Wang. In 2010, he formally established

the Ehnes Quartet, with whom he has performed

in Europe at venues including the

Wigmore Hall, Auditorium du Louvre in

Paris and Théâtre du Jeu de Paume in Aix,

amongst others. Ehnes is the Artistic Director

of the Seattle Chamber Music Society.

Ehnes has an extensive discography

and has won many awards for his recordings,

including a Grammy Award (2019) for

his live recording of Aaron Jay Kernis Violin

Concerto with the Seattle Symphony and

Ludovic Morlot, and a Gramophone Award

for his live recording of the Elgar Concerto

with the Philharmonia Orchestra and Andrew

Davis. His recording of the Korngold,

Barber and Walton violin concertos won a

Grammy Award for ‘Best Instrumental Soloist

Performance’ and a JUNO award for

‘Best Classical Album of the Year’. His recording

of the Paganini Caprices earned

him universal praise, with Diapason writing

of the disc, “Ehnes confirms the predictions

of Erick Friedman, eminent student of Heifetz:

‘there is only one like him born every

hundred years’.” Recent releases include

sonatas by Beethoven, Debussy, Elgar and

Respighi, and concertos by Walton, Britten,

Shostakovich, Prokofiev and Strauss, as

well as the Beethoven Violin Concerto with

the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra

and Andrew Manze, which was released in

October 2017 on Onyx Classics.

Ehnes began violin studies at the age of

five, became a protégé of the noted Canadian

violinist Francis Chaplin aged nine, and

made his orchestra debut with L’Orchestre

symphonique de Montréal aged 13. He continued

his studies with Sally Thomas at the

Meadowmount School of Music and The

Juilliard School, winning the Peter Mennin

Prize for Outstanding Achievement and

Leadership in Music upon his graduation

in 1997. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society

of Canada and in 2010 was appointed

a Member of the Order of Canada. Ehnes

was awarded the 2017 Royal Philharmonic

Society Award in the Instrumentalist category.

Ehnes plays the “Marsick” Stradivarius

of 1715.

12 CAMA'S 103 RD CONCERT SEASON


NOTES

ON THE PROGRAM

By Howard Posner

Throughout Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s

life the piano-violin sonata was in a state

of evolution in the musical world around

him. Many composers wrote for amateur

keyboard players who might want to invite

a violinist (or violinist and cellist) over

for duets occasionally, but wanted music

that also worked without additional players.

The sonatas tended to be complete

in the keyboard part, with the violin either

doubling the right-hand keyboard part or

adding body to the sound without playing

anything indispensable. The violin gradually

achieved equality, and then, in the 19th

century, supremacy.

But Mozart was inclined to give the

violin a more significant role right from the

start, when keyboard-violin sonatas were

the bulk of his earliest compositions—he

wrote 16 of them by the time he was nine!

Twelve years later, he finished his first

adult keyboard-violin sonata on March 11,

1778, at the tail end of a four-month stay in

Mannheim, part of an extended excursion

in search of employment anywhere other

than his native Salzburg. Mozart and his

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

mother lodged in the home of a Mannheim

privy court counselor not only at no cost,

but with candles and firewood thrown

in, as Frau Mozart wrote in a letter to her

husband in Salzburg. In exchange for the

VIP treatment, Wolfgang gave piano lessons

to the counselor’s 15-year-old daughter,

Thérèse Pierron Serrarius. It proved a

better exchange than the Serrarius family

could have expected, because Mozart

wrote this sonata for Thérèse as a parting

gift of sorts. It was a remarkably consider-

CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS

13


ate thing to do for someone as preoccupied

as Mozart was, not only with preparing to

travel to Paris, but also with his first serious

love affair, with the singer Aloysia Weber. (It

didn’t work out, and he married her sister

Constanze four years later.)

It may have been out of regard for the

Serrarius family that Mozart did not publish

the sonata with a group of others printed

in Paris later in 1778. In 1781, Mozart published

it as part of set of six in Vienna that

was labeled “Opus 2.”

The sonata’s energetic dialogue between

the two instruments struck contemporaries

as something new. A Hamburg

critic described the Opus 2 Sonatas as “the

only ones of their kind” in a 1783 review,

calling them “rich in new ideas, showing the

great musical genius of their author,” and

noting that the “the violin accompaniment

is so ingeniously combined with the piano

part that both instruments are continuously

employed; and thus these sonatas demand

a violinist as accomplished as the pianist.”

The day was coming when nobody would

think of saying “violin accompaniment,” and

Mozart was hastening it.

Franz Schubert’s Fantasie in C dates

from December 1827, when Schubert was

suffering from advanced syphilis and had

less than a year to live, but managed to

maintain a level of productivity that would

have exhausted nearly anyone else.

Like the Rondeau brillant of a year earlier,

the Fantasie was written for the young

Bohemian violinist Josef Slawjk, who had

recently come to Vienna. Slawjk was looking

for crowd-pleasing music, and the Rondeau

had served admirably in that capacity,

but the Fantasie may have disappointed

him: one critic at its first performance in

January 1828 wrote that much of the audience

left before it was finished. It may

have been the end of a long evening, or a

bad performance, or it may have been that

those first listeners didn’t quite know what

to make of a work that seemed undecided

about whether it wanted to be virtuosic fluff

or a serious sonata. Even today, it seems to

go both ways, or perhaps either way. The

insistent piano tremolos in the introduction

may sound mysterious, threatening, or

just sentimental, depending on how they’re

played or the listener’s mood. The vivacious

second movement, in loose sonata

form, greatly resembles many calling-card

pieces that virtuoso players were writing

for themselves, but also has some more

cerebral features, such as the way the vio-

Franz Schubert by Josef Kriehuber (1800–1876)

14 CAMA'S 103 RD CONCERT SEASON


lin and piano play the theme in canon. And

characteristically for Schubert, it wanders

into remote keys (more noticeable and unnerving

to Schubert’s contemporaries, who

were still used to the more settled harmonic

language of Haydn, than it is to us), taking

a movement that begins in A minor and

eventually leading into a third movement in

the very distant key A-flat major, (the A‐flatmajor

scale has only two notes in common

with the A‐minor scale).

The third movement, about as long

as the other three put together, is a set of

variations on a somewhat altered version

of Schubert’s 1822 song “Sei mir gegrüßt.”

Again, the movement comes to no real

close, but leads into a section that recalls

the original introduction. What it introduces

this time is a jaunty marchlike finale in C major,

which makes another surprising modulation

to A‐flat major, for what amounts to

one more variation on “Sei mir gegrüßt,” before

a quick coda ends the Fantasie.

Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s incidental

music for Shakespeare’s Much Ado About

Nothing was a work in progress for about

two years. It began in 1918 when the Wiener

Volksbünde, a Vienna theater company,

commissioned Korngold to write music

for a production it would be staging in

the 18th-century Schloßtheater in the

Schönbrunn Palace.

The 21‐year‐old Korngold, who was being

underused as a music director for an

Austrian army Vienna regiment, jumped at

the prospect. He wrote 18 numbers, from

short cues and transitions to full‐blown

Erich Wolfgang Korngold in 1916, credit AKG-Images

scenes, running about 40 minutes in all. He

conceived it for a small group, for several

reasons: resources were limited because

World War I was still going on (and Austria

was losing it), the performing space was

small, and some of his music was to be

played under the dialogue. So his orchestra

was a chamber ensemble with one player to

a part: strings, four woodwinds, two horns,

trumpet, trombone and percussion.

In the summer of 1919, with Korngold

polishing the orchestration and the production

virtually ready, the Wiener Volksbühne

went bankrupt and shut down. Vienna's bigger

and wealthier Burgtheater took over the

production, and contracted members of

the Vienna Philharmonic to play Korngold’s

music, but it would be nearly another year

before the curtain would go up.

In the meantime, Korngold fashioned

some of the music into a three-movement

orchestral suite, which he conducted in performance

in January 1920. If it was the first

time the music was refashioned for life out-

CAMA AT THE LOBERO THEATRE • JAMES EHNES ⫽ ORION WEISS

Camille Saint-Saëns

side the theater, it would not be the last.

The play opened May 6, 1920, and was

such a success that it ran months longer

than anyone expected, long past the time

the Vienna Philharmonic players had to quit

because the Philharmonic’s 1920/1921

season was beginning. Other seasons were

also beginning, which meant finding eight

good wind players free on short notice

might be difficult, but Korngold was friends

with two of the best solo and chamber violinists

in Vienna, so he quickly reworked

the entire score for piano and violin. Much

Ado, like all Shakespeare’s comedies, is a

story about young couples getting joined.

The couple that everyone remembers from

Much Ado is Beatrice and Benedick, who

constantly joust with, and insult, each other

in a “merry war of words,” until their friends

“trick” them into realizing that the they really

love each other.

The “Maiden in the Bridal Chamber” is

not Beatrice, but her cousin Hero, whose

almost-destroyed betrothal absorbs much

of the plot.

“Dogberry and Verges, March of the

Watch” is “in the tempo of a grotesque

funeral march,” which almost begs to be

likened to Mahler. “Watch” was an Elizabethan

term for local police; and the constabulary

in Much Ado are buffoons, with

Dogberry, their chief, comically mangling

the language at every opportunity.

The “Scene in the Garden” refers to the

scene in Act V when Beatrice and Benedick

start to have a serious talk about loving

each other, but lapse into their personal

brand of jest:

Benedick:

Tell me for which of my bad parts

didst thou first fall in love with me?

Beatrice:

For them all together; which maintained

so politic a state of evil that

they will not admit any good part to

intermingle with them.

The music is adapted from Korngold’s otherwise-forgotten

1917 work Dances in the

16 CAMA'S 103 RD CONCERT SEASON


served Korngold well when he came to Los

Angeles and scored 21 movies between

1935 and 1957. The Hornpipe that concludes

this suite also concludes the play.

If the Mozart and Korngold works on

this program are products of child prodigies

emerging into adulthood, and the

Schubert work the product of a 27-year-old

former prodigy staring at death, Camille

Saint‐Saëns’s first violin sonata is the work

of a 49‐year‐old former prodigy settling into

the full flush of international success.

He wrote it in 1885, after his three violin

concertos (and the ever‐popular 1865

über‐bonbon Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso

he wrote for the Spanish violinist

Pablo de Sarasate in 1865). The first sonata

is a different animal. It is Saint‐Saëns at his

most Beethovenian.

The allegro agitato that begins the work

is brooding, turbulent, and full of contrast

even by late 19th‐century standards. The

opening theme begins with 27‐beat phrases

(three measures in 6⁄8 time followed by

one measure in 9⁄8), an irregular meter that

makes everything uncertain and a bit surprising.

The second theme is angelically lyrical

(it, and the sonata as a whole, inspired

the sonata by the fictional Vinteuil in Marcel

Proust’s À la Recherche du temps perdu),

but it is just a respite from a battle that engulfs

both violin and piano. The movement

loses steam and melts away into the gentle

but passionate Adagio second movement.

The third movement is an edgy scherzo

with a middle section that uses the same

melodic figure as the main section, but

changes its character by changing the articulation

from short staccato notes to

smoother legato ones. It leads without

pause to the not‐quite-perpetual motion

of the finale. The first movement’s second

theme makes a return appearance, improbably

set against the finale’s running

16th‐notes.

Saint‐Saëns dedicated the sonata to

the Paris violinist Martin Pierre Marsick,

who played the first performance with him

in January 1886. [James Ehnes plays the

“Marsick” Stradivarius of 1715.] Saint‐Saëns

was aware that the sonata made enormous

demands on the violinist, and demanded a

great variety of technique and expression.

He wrote to his publisher that ordinary violinists

would call it the “hippogriff sonata.”

For non‐Harry Potter fans, a hippogriff has

the legs of a horse but the body of a giant

eagle. A very different animal indeed.
