Lezing door Octavie Dostaler-Lalonde met Maximiliano Segura Sanchez, cello
Romberg published his Violoncell Schule in 1840, one year before his death. It had a significant influence on cellists of his time and of the following generations, and was published in French by the Conservatoire de Paris (1840), in English in London (1840) and the United States (1880), among others. Several re-editions of the method appeared throughout the 19th century, and were often heavily altered to match the changes that occurred in technique and style during the romantic period. Looking at these differences, we can understand the various ways in which cello playing and musical taste were evolving, and trace Romberg’s influence in different countries over the century.
Romberg Dagen
Romberg Dagen is a festival over two days, celebrating the music of cellist Bernhard Romberg and his significant contribution to the repertoire of the cello and the development of its technique.
The weekend consists of three chamber music concerts of music by Romberg and other musicians from his circle (Reicha, Dotzauer, Ries), a masterclass and three lectures om 19th century performance practice, making it a concise but rich symposium commemorating this important musician.
