biography

Early life and education

Kasparov was born on April 6, 1966 in Baku, Azerbaijan, into a family of Armenian descent. He began studying music at the age of six and moved to Moscow when he was fifteen. He later joined the Moscow State Conservatory and graduated in 1989 and 1990 with honors in composition and piano. At the conservatory he studied harmony and counterpoint with the musicologist and music theorist Juri Cholopow . His piano teachers included Nina Emelianova, Vladimir Bunin, Sergei Dizhur, Dmitri Sacharov and Victor Merzhanov. He began his studies in composition with Tatyana Chudova and Tikhon Khrennikov, later he continued it privately with Alexandr Chaikovsky. In 1985 he received third prize at the All-USSR composition competition for his toccata for piano and in 1987 second prize for his six aphorisms for flute, violin and cello.

Kasparov then received his PhD in composition in 1999 from the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University in Bloomington with Claude Baker , Wayne Peterson , Harvey Sollberger and Eugene O'Brien and the conductor Thomas Baldner. In 1996 he took part in courses for new music in Darmstadt . In 1997 he received second prize at the Prokofiev International Composers' Competition for his Piano Sonata No. 2, a work on two contrasting twelve-tone rows .

Professional career

Kasparov is Professor of Music at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia , teaching composition, piano, and all-encompassing music theory, and leads the New Music Ensemble.

Between 1998 and 2008 Kasparov directed Creo , the Old Dominion University-based contemporary music ensemble. The group's last performance in March 2008 included the premiere of Kasparov's composition Tsitsernakabert for modern dance and six musicians: alto flute, bass / double bass flute, violin, two percussionists and mezzo-soprano. Among the participating artists were members of the Second Wind Dance Company and mezzo-soprano Lisa Relaford Coston. The work, jointly choreographed by Beverly Cordova Duane and Christina Yoshida, opened with eight dancers who posed in a circle and inclined towards the center of the circle in a tableau reminiscent of the memorial of the same name to the victims of the Armenian genocide. Kasparov had previously worked with the Second Wind Dance Company in 2005 in collaboration with the choreographer Jelon Vieira on Iao , an original work for dance, mezzo-soprano and percussion that contained elements of traditional Afro-Brazilian dance and the Brazilian martial art of capoeira .

In addition to his career as a composer and academic, Kasparov performs as a concert pianist. His discography spans several record labels including Albany Records and Naxos Records. Since 2009 he has shared the artistic direction of the Norfolk Chamber Consort with his wife and pianist Oksana Lutsyshyn . Together they are co-founders of the Invencia Piano Duo .

Work on works by Béla Bartók

From 1994 Kasparov began researching editing projects for Béla Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3 and his Viola Concerto in collaboration with Peter Bartók and Nelson Dellamaggiore . In 1994, at the world premiere of the revised edition of Béla Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3, Kasparov was soloist with the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic (formerly Columbus Pro Musica).

Hommages Musicaux

In honor of the late Claude Debussy , the French music magazine La Revue musicale commissioned works by contemporary composers and concert artists in 1920. The collection was published under the title Tombeau de Claude Debussy . Encouraged by the success of this premiere collaboration, publisher Henry Prunières proposed a second dedication. Published in 1922, seven students of Gabriel Fauré worked on producing Hommage à Gabriel Fauré . Released in 2007 by Albany Records, with violinists Desiree Ruhstrat and Pavel Ilyashov, cellist David Cunliffe, guitarist Timothy Olbrych and mezzo-soprano Lisa Relaford Coston, the Invencia Piano Duo (Andrey Kasparov and Oksana Lutsyshyn) produced Hommages Music de, which both played Tombeau Claude Debussy and Hommage à Gabriel Fauré included.

Work on works by Florent Schmitt and Paul Bowles

In the mid-1990s, the Invencia Piano Duo was included in the catalog of the composer Florent Schmitt during the production of Hommages Musicaux . The recording was intended as a homage to Claude Debussy and Gabriel Fauré and showed Tombeau de Claude Debussy and Hommage à Gabriel Fauré. Each of these cycles included one of Schmitt's works for piano.

Kasparov's commitment to Florent Schmitt's duo piano music in collaboration with Oksana Lutsyshyn culminated in the release of four CDs by Naxos Records as part of his grand piano series.

Volume 1, published in 2012, contained Schmitt's Trois Rapsodies, Op. 53 and the first recording of Schmitt's Sept pièces, Op. 15 , composed in 1899. The album ended with a previously unpublished work, Rhapsodie parisienne. It was composed in 1900 and is one of two unpublished duets by Schmitt. According to Kasparov, pencil notations in the score indicated that the composer had earmarked them for later orchestration. The special permission to record Rhapsodie parisienne was granted by Ms. Annie Schmitt, Florent's granddaughter. The first volume was named "Recording of the Month" and "Critics' Choice" by MusicWeb International and Naxos Records in May 2013 . It is unclear whether many of Schmitt's works for piano duet had ever received formal public performances in Europe prior to the Invencia Piano Duo reviving his compositions . Schmitt seems to have composed a number of piano études, in particular the two first recordings Sur cinq notes, Op. 34 and Eight Easy Pieces, Op. 41 , which were included in Volume 2. Kasparov claims that Schmitt experimented with a method of composition based on the first five notes of the diatonic scale. An approach later followed by Igor Stravinsky in his Five Easy Pieces for Piano Duet , published in 1917, and his Les cinq doigts for solo piano , published in 1921.

Volume 3 allowed the debut recordings of a six-movement work composed between 1895 and 1902, Musiques foraines, Op. 22 and the Marche du 163 RI, Op. 48 . Volume 4 contained another composition by Schmitt, consisting of the five set notes of the Primo section, Trois pièces récréatives, Op. 37 . The same album contained the very first edition of Lied et Scherzo, Op. 54 , in Schmitt's version for piano four hands, played on two pianos; Composed in 1910 for double woodwind quintet; alternative editions of this piece have also been prepared by the composer for horn and piano as well as cello and piano.

As of November 2016 it was announced that all four volumes will be available in one box on the Grand Piano label of Naxos Records. The release was planned for January 2017.

Kasparov also restored the original manuscripts of an arrangement of Blue Mountain Ballads (1946) as duets left by Paul Bowles (best known as the author).
