There better be a broadcast and someone had better record it. I would kill to see or hear that.

I have a video and recording of Thibaudet playing that. Don't bother going.

If you can record it, also get the Hétu piece if you can. I have taken a liking to this wonderful Canadian composer.

Keep checking with CBC, sometimes they broadcast such concerts live or record them for later broadcast.

See Kassaa's post. He's talking about a concert where Thibaudet will be playing the same work. I don't recommend that he go to that.

Ah, yes.  Isn't it an organ concerto with Olivier Latry as soloist?  I had an organist friend who was planning on flying to Toronto just to hear the concert. 
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: retrouvailles on March 18, 2008, 01:06:21 AM
Yeah. Latry is one of my favorite organists, so I want to hear the piece both for soloist and composer.

I should try to get some shitty seat in the back and video the whole thing.

Just a thought....

Latry is giving a free noon hour recital on the same day

Dude turangalîla is so amazing! You're so lucky to have the chance to go and see that! I would have soooo been to it if only he did it in Montreal  :(

To make things better, this morning I just recieved an email offer from my school for 6 dollar tickets, so I'm going twice!

I got my ticket  ;D

It's this week, so if you haven't already got yours you really should consider doing so.

There is a note saying it will be recorded by CBC.  I wonder if it is live broadcast that night or for later?

Still looking around the CBC website.
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: retrouvailles on April 14, 2008, 11:34:07 PM
Does anyone have the means to record it? My laptop doesn't like stream recording software for some reason, so I can't do it myself.
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: viking on April 16, 2008, 10:19:50 PM
I'm going tonight and the tomorrow night, so if it looks like it would be something worth while recording I'll likely ask around and try to borrow a video camera, although I seriously suck at technology, so please don't expect much, if anything.  And will it be broadcast on CBC live?  Because I'm sure someone will capture it if it is...

Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: retrouvailles on April 16, 2008, 11:14:40 PM
It will be on CBC, and I will try my best to record it.
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: quantum on April 17, 2008, 12:09:34 AM
I can't find out when CBC will broadcast it.  I'm listing now to radio 2 and radio 1 and it's not on. 
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: retrouvailles on April 17, 2008, 12:28:16 AM
Hmm, well check Concerts on Demand soon after the performance to see if it gets posted. It says that it will be broadcast.
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: tompilk on April 17, 2008, 08:12:35 AM
this is the schedule for the Canada Live program, so it isn't to be broadcast straight away, methinks:
https://www.cbc.ca/radio2/schedule_canLive.html
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: retrouvailles on April 17, 2008, 08:14:28 AM
Perhaps it will be broadcast at a later date? They did that with Hamelin's last program on CBC back in October. On the TSO's website it says that it will be recorded by CBC, so it must at one point end up on their Concerts on Demand page.

EDIT: It might take a while for it to appear. Some of the concerts on the Concerts on Demand page took as long as 4 months to go up, whereas others took a few weeks, such as Hamelin's last concert.

Just went last night and am about to go now.  I sat a few rows back of Hetu himself.  Apparently another new music concert a few days ago is to be broadcast on May 1st, so I assume the Turangalila should be within a short time after that.

wow. I can't thank you enough. What did you record it with?
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: quantum on April 19, 2008, 05:36:49 PM
But the honor was mine.    :)  The awesomeness of this concert was one I could not miss. 

I usually make verbal notes to myself on a minidisc recorder, with an inexpensive computer mic.  I must have accidentally left it on that night  ;)

HAHA I thought the link was for whatever chocolates they served to us after the concert (I got fairly sick after stuffing my face).  It's good to know there's a recording out there until CBC releases it.  MUCH THANKS!

Actually I tried all of the links, and only got the Messiaen movements 6-10 inclusive to work...
Anyone else getting this?

I would guess that he didn't.
Title: Re: Hamelin plays Turangalîla April 17
Post by: viking on April 20, 2008, 03:23:47 PM
He actually did, suprisingly without a page turner.  There were a few places where it was obvious (to me, anyway) that he would sacrifice a few LH notes to free his hand to make a page turn, but I suppose it's not a recording, and a few notes here and there out of 1 billion or so shouldn't make a difference, although I would have liked otherwise.  On a side notes, the link situation remains the same for me.  Only Turangalila 6-10 work.  I'm glad I do have 6 though - I fell asleep listening to it last night.  Such beautiful music...

Post by: quantum on April 20, 2008, 06:53:55 PM
Actually one of the pages in his book was loose and almost went flying with a vigorous page turn.  A wonder how he managed to keep pace with the playing and page turns and look so at ease.

Hey I'd greatly appreciate this.  I'm not sure why I'm the only one that can't get them to work, and why only some don't work.  Would you mind uploading the entire concert minus mvmts 6-10 of Turangalila?
