The Abel Family - Die Abel Familie

The German Abel family belongs to one of the first classical music forerunners and paved the way for innumerable and - let me subscribe it - as "indirect foundations laying".

CLAMOR HEINRICH ABEL, was born in the German county Westphalia (which is, by the way, also this writer's home!) around 1640.

Clamor Heinrich Abel became a chamber musician in 1665 and published his edition of sonatas during the period 1674-1677. Notes estates are available until nowadays.

CHRISTIAN FERDINAND ABEL, his son, became a cellist under Johann Sebastian Bach during the years 1715-1737. From him Bach composed i.e. the popular "Viola da Gamba". Bach was also the NINONG (godfather) of his third child. Christian Ferdinand Abel's two sons entered his foot-steps.

LEOPOLD AUGUST ABEL (born March 24, 1718, passed away August 25, 1794), scholar of Francois Benda (1709-17860 became Royal Conductor at the Ludwigslust Castle.

CARL FRIEDRICH ABEL (born December 22, 1723 and passed away June 20, 1787 in London), also student of Bach, remained as "last gambist" (Viola da gamba, a 'on the knees put and played violin). Since 1765 Carl Friedrich Abel arranged and organized concert performances with Johann Christian Bach. Unfortunately happened this without success and Carl-Friedrich Abel became a saucy drinker. One of his symphonies has been ascribed to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "KV 18" in e-flat major, but i wasn't Mozart's "18th" composition.

Side by Side - A Piano Duet Concert in Davao City

 (Daphne C. Jocson)
(Mary Anne Espina)

It was (again!) an enchanting evening. Hundreds of classical music lovers (including me!) experienced a wonderful concert with the two concert pianist ladies Daphne C. Jocson (member of the quintet "The Five Davao Lady Pianists and very good friend of mine!) and Mary Anne Espina.

Daphne Cabaguio Jocson is a dynamic collaborating artist in local and foreign classical music circles. She performs with professional artists in Manila, Davao City and the United States. She is indeed an advocate of honing promising young artists in the country thus, takes precedence in collaborating with young and upcoming musicians.

Daphne was a featured soloist of the Manila Symphony Orchestra then known as the Manila Youth Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Professor Basilio Manalo and Professor Arturo Molina where she performed the Mozart Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor and the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor - both my favourite piano concertos as well.

Recently Daphne was engaged as pianist/repititeur for several productions, among others, Dulaang U.P.'s "Noli Me Tangere" and Ryan Cayabyab's musical "Ageless Passion". 

A 2007 Aliw Awardee for the Best Instrumentalist category, Mary Anne Espina has been featured in the Filipino Artists Series at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. In 2010, she was presented by the GSIS Museo ng Sining in cooperation woth the embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany  in a solo concert in celebration of Robert Schumann's 200th birthyear. In 2011, Mary Anne collaborated with pianist Jonathan Coo in an all Liszt repertoire , as a tribute to Franz Liszt's 200th birthyear. 

Known for her excellence in chamber music, Mary Anne is one of the most sought after collaborating artists in the Philippines today.

The classical music evening in the Apo View Hotel brought us compositions from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Gabriel Faure (one of the greatest french composers of the 19th century), Johannes Brahms (with one of my favourite Hungarian Dances, the No. 5), Johann Sebastian Bach, Fritz Kreisler  (an Austrian born violinist and composer), and Agot Espino (born 1957), Philippine pianist, pedagogue and christian songwriter.

Thank you so very much Daphne and Mary Anne for a wonderful evening with classical music.
