Andrey Rafailovich Kasparov (arménien : Անդրեյ Րաֆաիլի Կասպարով, russe : Андре́й Рафаи́лович Каспа́ров, April 6, 1966, Baku, former Azerbaijan SSR) is an Armenian-American pianist, composer and professor, holding both American and Russian citizenship.

Biography modifier

Early Life and Education modifier

Kasparov was born in the city of Baku, Azerbaijan, to a family of Armenian descent. He began his musical studies at the age of six. At fifteen, he moved to Moscow, Russia, where he later entered the Moscow State Conservatory, graduating with honors in Music Composition and Piano, in 1989 and 1990, respectively.[1][2][3] Early studies in harmony and counterpoint were with Dr. Yuri Kholopov. Among his keyboard instructors were Nina Emelianova, Vladimir Bunin, Sergei Dizhur, Dmitri Sakharov and Victor Merzhanov. His composition studies began with Tatyana Chudova and Tikhon Khrennikov, before transitioning to the independent studio of Alexandr Chaikovsky.[4] As an aspirant composer in the former Soviet Union, he was awarded a Third Prize (1985) for his Toccata for piano, and a Second Prize (1987) for his Six Aphorisms for flute, violin and cello, at the All-USSR Composition Competition.[1][5] Kasparov pursued subsequent doctoral studies in composition at the Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University at Bloomington, Indiana, with Claude Baker, Wayne Peterson, Harvey Sollberger and Eugene O'Brien; conducting instructor, Thomas Baldner. He also participated in Courses for New Music in 1996, in Darmstadt, Germany. In 1997 he was awarded Second Prize at the Prokofiev International Composers Competition[1][6][7] for his Piano Sonata No. 2, a work on two contrasting twelve-tone rows.[8] Kasparov earned his D.M. in Music Composition from Indiana University in 1999[2],[3].

Professional career modifier

Presently, Dr. Kasparov serves as Associate Professor of Music at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, where he teaches undergraduate and graduate Music Composition, Piano, all levels of undergraduate Music Theory, and the New Music Ensemble[1].

Between 1998 and 2008, Andrey Kasparov led Creo, Old Dominion University's resident ensemble for contemporary music.[9] The group's final performance in March, 2008, featured the premiere of Andrey Kasparov's landmark composition, Tsitsernakabert, for modern dance and six musicians: alto flute, bass/ contrabass flute, violin, two percussionists, and mezzo-soprano.[10] Among the participating artists were members of the Second Wind Dance Company, and mezzo-soprano Lisa Relaford Coston. Co-choreographed by Beverly Cordova Duane and Christina Yoshida, the work opened with eight dancers posed in a circle – inclined toward the circle's centre – in a tableau reminiscent of the eponymous memorial to victims of the Armenian Genocide.[11] Kasparov had previously worked with the Second Wind Dance Company in 2005, in collaboration with choreographer Jelon Vieira, on Iao. An original work for dance, mezzo-soprano and percussion, it incorporated elements of traditional Afro-Brazilian dance and Capoeira, the Brazilian martial art[12].

Besides his career as a composer and academician, Andrey Kasparov is a noted recording artist and concert pianist, whose discography encompasses several prominent record labels.[13][14][15][16] Since 2009, he has shared the Artistic Directorship of the Norfolk Chamber Consort with wife and fellow pianist, Oksana Lutsyshyn.[17] Together, they are co-founders of the Invencia Piano Duo[7],[18].

Work on Béla Bartók modifier

Article connexe : Piano Concerto No. 3 (Bartók).

Beginning in 1994, in conjunction with Peter Bartók and Nelson Dellamaggiore, Andrey Kasparov began research into editing projects concerning Béla Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3 and his Viola Concerto.

Whilst working feverishly to complete his Third Piano Concerto, Bartók's health worsened, eventually forcing him to concede admittance to hospital. Consequently, the last seventeen measures of the score were left in rough sketch. Before entering hospital, however, he gave explicit instructions to his son, Peter, to insert the seventeen bar-lines and double bar at the end; in his haste to complete the work, Béla had already noted the precise ending in his native Hungarian. Bartók never returned to oversee the Piano Concerto's completion, having succumbed to leukemia on 26 September 1945. Final orchestration was eventually executed from the composer's notes by his friend, Tibor Serly. The Third Piano Concerto was later published in an edition by Serly and Erwin Stein, an editor for Boosey & Hawkes. The original manuscript, along with numerous others, then became the subject of a protracted legal dispute between a trustee of Bartók's estate, Peter, and Béla's second wife, Ditta Pásztory-Bartók. The trustee asserted the composer had lost title to his own work in his lifetime, a claim disupted by Peter Bartók. The same trustee also denied Ditta's right to any income from music sales, so long as ownership remained in contest. Throughout the more than 40-years of subsequent wrangling, all of the original manuscripts remained inaccessible. Only with both the trustee's and Ditta's deaths was Peter able to gain full possession of his father's documents, and begin the long-overdue process of editing. It was at this time the Viola Concerto, presumed lost, was rediscovered, amongst the possessions of the deceased trustee[19],[20],[21].

Peter Bartók's intent, in association with Nelson Dellamaggiore, was to re-print and revise past editions of both scores, to eradicate the many printed errors identified but never corrected by his father.[19] Although few in actual number, changes made to the Piano Concerto affected the pitch content, pedalling and tempos of several key passages. Overall, revisions fall into five categories:[21]

  1. Pencil markings by the composer in the final manuscript, not reproduced in the final photo-reproduction.
  2. Revisions based on initial sketches by Béla Bartók.
  3. Suggestions by editors and musicians involved in past performances of the Concerto.
  4. Typographical errors.
  5. Errors in the printed piano part, appearing only in the two-piano reduction of the score.

In 1994 Andrey Kasparov was soloist with the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic (formerly Columbus Pro Musica)[22] in the world premiere of the revised edition of Béla Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3.[7] According to conductor David Bowden, and Peter Bartók, who was in attendance:

“These changes generally make the piano part more accessible or clarify questions of chordal structure....”[23]

The revised editions of both the two-piano reduction and the orchestral score of the Piano Concerto No. 3 are now available from Boosey & Hawkes[19],[24],[25].

Work on Florent Schmitt modifier

Article connexe : Florent Schmitt.

In the mid 1990s, during production of their album Hommages Musicaux, the Invencia Piano Duo (Andrey Kasparov and Oksana Lutsyshyn) was introduced to the catalogue of composer Florent Schmitt. Intended as a tribute to Claude Debussy and Gabriel Fauré, the recording featured Le Tombeau de Claude Debussy and Hommage à Gabriel Fauré. Within each of these cycles was contained one of Schmitt's works for piano. The pianists were,

“...captivated by the richness of Schmitt’s multi-layered harmonies and textures, as well as the vitality of the rhythmic structures in the music.”[26]

Andrey Kasparov's dedication to Florent Schmitt’s duo-piano music, in collaboration with Oksana Lutsyshyn, culminated in the release of four CDs by Naxos Records on its Grand Piano series[7],[27],[28].

Issued in 2012, Volume 1 contains Schmitt’s Trois rapsodies, Op. 53, and a first-ever recording of Schmitt’s Sept pièces, Op. 15, composed in 1899. The album concludes with a previously unpublished work, Rhapsodie parisienne.[27] Composed in 1900, it is one of two unpublished duets by Schmitt. According to Dr. Kasparov, pencil notations in the score indicate the composer intended it for later orchestration.[26] Special permission to record Rhapsodie parisienne was granted by Mme. Annie Schmitt, granddaughter of Florent[27].

Noteworthy Compositions modifier

Reflective of the composer's Armenian heritage, the work was inspired by the memorial of the same name: dedicated to the victims of the Armenian Genocide, the collective atrocities – committed during WWI by the Ottoman Empire – against Turkey's Armenian population.[40] Situated in Yerevan, capital of Armenia, the monument was designed by the architects Sashur Kalashyan and Arthur Tarkhanyan[41].
