Capítulo: “Conversations - On Schnabel and Interpretation with Konrad

 En esta conversación de 1979, Alfred Brendel y Konrad Wolff, autor de “The Teaching of Artur Schnabel. A Guide to Interpretation”, discuten sobre ciertos puntos en los que Brendel no coincide con Schnabel.
Para Wolff, Brendel es el primer pianista desde Schnabel que ha gozado de plena autoridad en la interpretación de Mozart, Beethoven y Schubert. Además, en su opinión, su enfoque tiene mucho en común con el de Schnabel en los detalles de fraseo, tempo y dinámicas.
Sin embargo, hay varias opiniones en las que Brendel difiere de Schnabel. Para Brendel, las frases son como curvas que no necesariamente se miden por compases: “Very often for me the art of phrasing consists in forgetting about bars, ignoring bars and seeing large units”.
Por su parte, de acuerdo a Wolff, Schnabel veía las frases en función de la respiración y del énfasis al principio o al final: “he wanted to know how far he was to play before there was a breath (…), a phrase begins and then goes from there, or else it ends and goes to there”.
Mientras la interpretación de Schnabel suele asemejarse al lenguaje, para Brendel la música no puede organizarse de esa manera. Ambos coinciden en que la continuidad es la base del fraseo: “The last note of one phrase is frequently the first note of the next”.
Otro punto en el que Schnabel y Brendel difieren es en el tempo. Mientras que Schnabel solía ir a los extremos en el tempo, Brendel busca una mayor variedad: “Dealing with tempo (…) there must be as much variety as possibly at the command of the player”.
Para Schnabel, en la mayoría de las composiciones para piano, el compositor quería que su música sonara como piano y nada más. Brendel opina lo contrario: "I would think, if I looked at the latent possibilities in most piano works, that piano pieces are rather reductions…
…They are usually reductions of musical ideas which belong to the orchestra, to chamber music, to the voice -whatever you name. A reduction so that one player, without having to compromise with others, can master them -at a price. I think the price should be as low as possible.”
A pesar de las discordancias que pudiera tener con Schnabel, sin haber sido su alumno, ni haberlo escuchado en vivo ni haberlo conocido, Brendel lo considera como uno de los grandes músicos con los que se identifica (“both in admiration and criticism”).

Hay varios puntos de vista en los que Brendel coincide con Schnabel. “Like Schnabel, I feel that analytic insights have a direct bearing on performance and that analysis should be the outcome of an intimate familiarity with the piece rather than an input of established concepts”.
Brendel y Schnabel consideran que es un error imaginar que todas las notas deban ser ejecutadas con la misma intensidad y ser claramente audibles. “Complete and permanent clarity of execution is a manner of playing which, instead of serving the music, is content with itself”.
“‘The performer’s inner ear hears everything twice: each little bit is mentally anticipated as well as checked out by later control.’If all goes well, these two perceptions are blended into one or, as Schnabel phased it: ‘The conception materializes and…
…the materialization re-dissolves into conception.’ An event as mysterious as parallel lines meeting in the infinite. If all went well, Schnabel made them meet.”

I'd like to say a few things in tribute to the brilliant musical director & vocal coach Kate Young, who died far too young last week. Even fellow musical theatre folk may not know what a trail-blazing talent she was, so here's my story of Kate (thread)/1

I first met Kate at a rehearsal for Wayne Sleep's 1983 touring dance show DASH, for which I was composer. What struck me first about her (apart from the poetic lilt of her warm, Edinburgh accent) was the impeccable care she was taking playing piano for dance rehearsals /2


(believe me, & I mean no disrespect to lovely dancers & choreographers but playing piano for dance sessions isn't called REPETITEUR for nothing and many repetiteurs switch to auto-pilot at the keys. Kate never did. Her playing was always immaculate)/3

We hit it off immediately & had long, ranty discussions about how we wanted to change musical theatre, like young people do. We had specific aims to do with the way singing was taught & shaped for the stage. /4

We wanted the singing to be much more text & meaning-focused, for actors to have the confidence to sing as well as trained singers & for the sound to be more nuanced, more plural in style & less belty & samey (tbh not sure we won that battle..) /5

Open Question to fellow investors tracking Music Industry.

A business like Universal which controls more than 1/3rd of all published music globally is selling for less than 6x FY20 Sales.

Why are Indian businesses like Saregama / Tips selling for 11x, 20x their sales?

If I include all of the revenue generated by entire firm, its selling for ~4.5x FY20 Sales


Universal Listing Market Cap ~ 40 Billion USD
FY 20 Revenues ~ 8.87 B USD or 7.4B EUR

Catalogue of Music includes every international artist you can possibly name

Either Universal is grossly undervalued or Saregama/Tips are grossly overvalued.

Capítulo: “Conversations - Bach and the Piano with Terry

En 1976 Terry Snow entrevistó a Alfred Brendel sobre sus puntos de vista acerca de la obra de Bach para teclado, la cual hasta ese entonces Brendel había evitado ejecutar en sus conciertos.


Brendel cambió de opinión en esa época. Al haber sido alumno de Edwin Fischer, quien transmitía la música de Bach de una manera única y con poderosa autoridad, le tomó tiempo considerar que estaba listo para abordar a Bach en sus propios

En un principio, Brendel no se sentía muy convencido por las ejecuciones “históricas”. Sin embargo, para él la obra de Bach es menos dependiente de los instrumentos contemporáneos que la de Monteverdi, Domenico Scarlatti, Purcell, Rameau y Couperin.


Entre las ventajas de interpretar las obras para teclado de Bach en piano, Brendel considera el hecho de que este es más adecuado para las salas de concierto modernas. Además, para Brendel dichas obras están llenas de posibilidades

Here is the detailed information of about strategy,

Entry time : 9.30 - 10
Exit : Upto you

Strategy :
Sell weekly ATM CE & PE at almost equal price
For ex : Sell Nifty 17250 CE at 50 and Nifty 17250 PE at 48 so it will become short straddle

Buy monthly ATM or near ATM CE & PE at matching price (5-10 points diff should be fine) as hedge
For ex : Buy Nifty 17250 CE at 150 and Nifty 17300 PE at 155 so it will become long straddle.

Weekly Short straddle + Monthly Long straddle

Adjustment:

• If you feel slightly bullish/bearish then no adjustment needed
• If Nifty moves 50 up or down and sustain then just simply roll up or down half of qnty and keep rest of the quantity. If market goes up or down further then roll up or down rest.

• If Nifty moves one side or about to breach BEP then add equal amount of lot. This can balance tested side. For ex: If I bought 17300 CE 4 lot as hedge then add 4 lot so you will have only one side risk . Note: Remember to keep SL at cost price (only for additional lot bought)

Capital requirement:
2.2 L for 4 lot
Adjustment requires additional capital upto 1L

Note : High risk high reward strategy, please don’t execute until you fully understand. Kindly do paper trading or backtest.
RR : 1:1
POP : 45-55%

ANCIENT BHARAT WAS CALLED VISHWAGURU, AND IT REALLY DESERVED IT.

India had a well developed education system centuries before the westerners arrived and called us uncivilized. Education was always given a great importance in Indian civilisation since times immemorial.


Ancient India had the Gurukulas and Ashramas as the epicentres of the knowledge and enlightenment. Bigger Gurukulas served as the centres of higher education called universities. Besides these universities, temples also emerged as the major learning centres.

Studying the Holy Scriptures, character building, personality development, responsibilities towards self,family and society,discipline and preservation of the ancient culture and heritage were the key embodiments of education.

This kind of education system made ancient India, a centre of knowledge all over the world. Many foreign students came to India for education and India was called the 'Vishwaguru'.
Takshshila and Nalanda were the two prominent universities of ancient India.


But were these only Universities of ancient India?The answer is 'No'.Let's learn about these gems of our education system that flourished across ancient India & be proud.

NALANDA UNIVERSITY
This was the oldest university of ancient India.Situated in Nalanda distt. of Bihar...
