Kikuko Ogura 《The World of Fortepiano》 13th
Ancient and Modern Italian Piano Makers
2025/03/05(We.) 14:00 Starting
Italian Medici keyboard instrument maker B. Cristofori invented a new kind of instrument around 1700, a percussion system with dampers and hammers. This marked the birth of the piano, in which the intensity of the sound could be adjusted by changes in the touch of the fingers. The action section of the modern piano is based on Christofori's various inventions, and the concert will feature the first work for piano in the history of music by L.M. Giustini, and sonatas by D. Scarlatti and B. Marcello, both of whom are closely associated with Christofori.
Founded in 1981 in Italy, where the piano was born, Fazioli pianos are modern pianos, but are known for their meticulous handcrafting, unique design, and other specialties. The Fazioli piano, which has been in use for about 300 years since the invention of the piano, is used to play T. Badajewska's "The Maiden's Prayer," which was a worldwide hit at the time, "Lyric Pieces" by E. Grieg, called the "Chopin of Northern Europe," a series of pieces by popular female composer C. Chaminade, and a wonderful series of pieces by the sound magician M. Ravel. The program will include "Ma mer Roi," by popular female composer C. Chaminade, and a wonderful piece by sound wizard M. Ravel.
To celebrate the release of "50 Ways to Make Friends with the Piano," multi-pianist Takashi Ohara will be invited as a guest performer.
The oldest keyboard instrument, the clavicimbalum, whose description survives in Arnaud's book of the 15th century Zwolle, will also make an appearance. The audience will enjoy reminiscing about the history of the piano.
