By this time The Köchel catalogue – listing the composer’s works – started mentioning it even though the manuscript itself kept going in and out of auction houses. Owned by an antiquarian book and art dealer in Vienna in the 1880s, the manuscript was brought to auction in 1899. So, how could this manuscript have hidden from public attention? Evidently, after passing from the estate of Mozart’s youngest son into the collection owned by Austrian civil servant and amateur musician Aloys Fuchs, it was mistakenly given away and vanished off the musical map. Mozart’s 265th birthday and Salzburg and Austria celebrate this with the world premiere of one of his compositions.Īt Piano Street we celebrate by releasing the score of the composition, the recently discovered piano piece “ Allegro in D K626b/16“.ĭownload it for free below and celebrate Mozart yourself by playing the piece today!

Director Van Hove (West End’s All About Eve Broadway’s Network) finds simplistic magic, even as I waited for some of his typical cinematic flairs to present themselves. The 70-minute monologue play, written by Cocteau (1934’s La Machine Infernale, 1938’s Les Parents Terribles) and first performed in Paris in 1930, stretches out before us plainly, presenting with dutiful expertise the lies that are told to try to hold on, and the uncomfortable truths that exist underneath. It’s an intense repetitive beginning, making an odd reference to the 1930s Parisian phone system that allowed misdiallers to occasionally connect to the wrong line, but with Wilson, the two-time Olivier and Golden Globe Award winner, playing the lost soul in the center with an intense singularity, she, the actress, somehow manages to pull us in, even as we experience and register the tense triggering separation that exists somewhere between ‘She’ and him, and her and us. “ Hello!” “ Is that you?” ‘She’, the one and only Ruth Wilson (Broadway’s Constellations King Lear) all alone on stage behind a plate of glass, says, repeatedly, into the phone, as the call comes in from a person, the person, she is most desperate to engage with. The unbearable tension of disconnection rings out loud and clear in Ivo Van Hove’s compelling and complex adaptation of Jean Cocteau’s The Human Voice. In Angels, “Death is the mother of all beauty,” a line from Wallace Stevens’s “Sunday Morning,” is inscribed over a gas chamber in a New Mexico state penitentiary. Right away, we’re in trademark Johnson territory: the world as we know it, only not at all. and we’re halfway around the world, tagging along with Seaman Apprentice William Houston Jr.-the devil in Johnson’s first novel, Angels -as he wades just barely sober through the jungle of Grande Island, in the Philippines. Tree of Smoke begins in 1963 with the assassination of President Kennedy, only it’s 3 a.m. In fact, since the publication of his first novel, in 1983, he has been preoccupied with the paradoxical notions of self-sacrifice and salvation in our modern world-but never before has Johnson’s writing been quite so haunted and harrowing as it is in his massive new novel, twenty-five years in the works. What tends to get left out of most discussions of that book is that Johnson structured it loosely around the Stations of the Cross. Denis Johnson is best known for his slim novel-in-stories Jesus’ Son, which since its publication in 1992 has become something of a young writers’ how-to guide. When their professional competition leads to a very personal-and very hot-kiss, both Wells and Gwyn are determined to stay away from each other, convinced the kiss was just a magical fluke. When he opens up a shop of his own, Penhallow's, just across the street from Something Wicked, he quickly learns he's gotten more than he bargained for in going up against Gwyn. Wells has come to Graves Glen to re-establish his family's connection to the town they founded as well as to make a new life for himself after years of being the dutiful son in Wales. As Halloween approaches, there's only one problem-Llewellyn "Wells" Penhallow. She, her mom, and her cousin have formed a new and powerful coven she's running a successful witchcraft shop, Something Wicked and she's started mentoring some of the younger witches in town. Gwyn Jones is perfectly happy with her life in Graves Glen. The follow-up to Erin Sterling's New York Times bestselling hit The Ex Hex features fan favorite Gwyn and the spine-tinglingly handsome Wells Penhallow as they battle a new band of witches and their own magical chemistry. |
