Master in Music - the Podcast

Welcome to Master in Music the musical podcast where I Petronella Torin tries to resolve the magic behind really great music.

I like to invite you to a little backstage tour in some of my episodes. We will meet five quite different musicians and hear some of their experience with creating fantastic music.

we start the tour with a famous Ulf Wandenbrandt, then we dive into the life of solo Cellist Niels Ullner followed by the singing professor Gun-britt Gustavsson and ending up with three swinging singing Hebbe Sisters.  A sneak-peek into the normally very secretive lives of musician and their way of making music.

Let me introduce Ulf Wadenbrandt, he went from local drum teacher to international rock conductor for The Band ARIA to becoming the Principal guest conductor for the Russian Philharmonic Orchestra. He is known for being an energy explosion on stage and you have never seen a conductor head-banging as he does. Let’s listen to what he has to say about getting a sponsor as a musician.

Now we are going to hear a clip from my personal cello hero Professor and Solo cellist Niels Ullner. He has been a principal cellist for 34 years in Malmö symphony orchestra in Sweden and is known for educating some of the finest cellists at the National academy of Denmark. Now we dive into a part where I try to find out how to win a job in an orchestra and what makes a good team.

We are taking a trip into the deep forest of Sweden to a magical meadow where Singing professor Gunbritt Gustavsson lives. She is a singing lector at the royal academy in Stockholm and a widespread singing profile in Sweden known for her fantastic powerful voice.  We talk on our best Swenglish about the importance of simplicity and being natural and the importance of breathing.

This year’s Christmas gift in Master in Music offers a three-in-one interview with the fantastic swinging sisters Emelie, Josefine and Maria, The Hebbe Sisters. Three Sisters that are Sweden's answer to the Andrews Sisters, extending their three voices to new musical possibilities.

The Hebbe Sisters made their national debut in 2009 in national TV in a talent show. Since then the three sisters have been touring Sweden's and Europe's big stages.

They are extra found of the Jazz festivals in Switzerland where they yearly perform. Where they also got singing lessons from Barbera Bonney.

They are popping up in several tv program on Swedish television like Bingolotto, Dancing stepping, swinging, singing and entertaining in the most wonderful way.  

In this episode, we explore the life of these three sisters and their musical life as well as their life home on the farm with the goats and cows. We talk about performance, singing, dancing, education about superpowers and sisterhood. I also have the pleasure of presenting a live performance in the interview where we get to listen to their latest hit “Jazz it up and Swing” from their new jazz album.

In a distant place in the Swedish forest lies a village called the “tune” village there in the sunny meadow lies a red cottage built in the old manners of a Dalsland house. Red coulure, with white decor. A surrounding garden is a magical place with nooks and crannies just about big engulf for a house-elf or two. In the little pound you can on a sunny day spot the salamanders playing with the weather fairies. The enchanted creatures of the meadow is not the only thing living here, because here is the home of Gun-Britt Gustafsson Lector in jazz singing at the Royal collage in Stockholm, singer, artist, choir leader and concert producer.

Today we are diving into Gun-Britts magical meadow. The shy farm girl from the small village that travelled the country of Sweden with her voice and sang into our hearts.

From churches to community centres, hospitals, schools to the beautiful blue to golden halls Gun- Britt’s strong and powerful voice has filled spaces with classical and jazz songs. Through the year taken the listeners out on a musical journey

She is one of the most positive, sensitive listeners I ever met and she has the ability to find beauty and expression in every performer. She releases art that is capture so it can grow to its full potential.

Before we dive into the interview in her house talking about her life, singing approach, as a singer her self and as a lector we talk about how she felt like a bad teacher at the beginning of her carrier and how she had to work her way to the top. Going against some of the most profaned norms of singing.

Ladies and Gentlemen here is Gun-Britt Gustafsson with the local tune “as I walk over the fields” with the trio forget me not Peter Söderlund flute Nils Lundström Piano

He is classical educated in Cello playing by Daniel Schafran. Attila plays a cello by Carlo Giuseppe Testore from 1697.

He has done and won a lot of competitions: “Vienna Philharmonic” award, 1 prize at the “International Chamber Music Festival Austria”, 1st prize in the international competition in Liezen, 1st prize at the Bayreuth international music competition. He also went to the semi-finals in the famous Tchaikovsky competition, the jury that year was so divided that they could not name a winner.

Attila works all over the world as a soloist but has his base in Vienna, Austria, where he takes care of producing the amazing Thomastik strings. He plays all kinds of music, classical to jazz, and when you first see him, his appearance is a very tall and muscular man that probably could be a bodyguard. At a closer look, you see his friendly curious eyes and realise that Attila is an amazing kind and friendly like a teddy bear but wild and adventurous in his artistic expression, always looking for new possibilities. In this episode, we talk about string production, cello playing, teaching and mentality. Now let’s listen to Attila Pasztor playing a Jazz trio with Franz Kogleman, Mario Arcari in the CD g(ood)luck, this is Blues all Alba.

For today's episode, I have a very special guest. The man that taught me all the best things I know about cello playing: Profesor and solo cellist Niels Ullner. He is a Danish music animal that just spreads music in every step of his life. He has been working as a principal cellist since his twenties at Malmö Symphony orchestra. He is a cello professor and chamber music director at the Danish national conservatory in Odense.

Just like the famous tale from the writer H.C. Andersen tells the story about the ugly duckling, Niels has the gift of seeing the inner swan in every person he meets. As a Cello teacher, he can get to know your hidden soul just by listening to your playing, as he slowly peels off the layers of duckling feathers, he awakes a beautiful swan in all of his students.

I have always admired Niels ability to see other people's gift. In this episode you will get to go behind the scenes in the professional orchestra and learn about the unwritten orchestra rules, the does and don’t!

Get a walk down memory lane to some of our times greatest cellist and Niels old teachers like Mstislav Rostropovich, Pierre Fournier, William Pleeth and some secret living locations of our most famous composers.

I am so proud and grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from Niels and I like to give my strongest sincere recommendations to you who is listening to this episode and want to become an orchestra cellist. Niels Ullner is the most incredible teacher with more insight in to winning the jobs, competitions and finding the joy in professional cello playing. He has taught cellists like Jonathan Swensen, Mette Spang Hanssen,

Do you want to be your own CBO of your life and teaching studio? Or maybe reach your wildest dreams?! How about being a fantastic teacher?! even during a Corona crisis this can be possible. Ladies and gentlemen if this has caught your attention wait until you hear the episode with Michelle Powell the power pianist! A colourful Canadian Pianist based in Maastricht, the Netherlands. She is an Artistic Director of a fantastic concert series called the Opus 16 concerts. Michelle invites international Artist to play vibrant classical music in two local venues. Through music, she brings the world into the concert halls as the virtuous musicians perform the pieces from all of the worlds different time eras on all kinds of instruments.

In her piano studio, Michelle is a proud teacher to 25 piano students, that weekly learn piano and personal development through the guidance of music.

Michelle, together with her friend and colleague Violist Deanna Petre, leads a focus group called Mastermind for Musicians where they together brainstorm ideas on how to unlock your full potential.

As a pianist, Michelle has performed and worked with the professional opera company Opera Zuid, Conservatorium Maastricht and given Masterclasses around Europe. She has participated in numerous competitions like the Helene Roberge competition, the Canadian Music competition, The Kiwanis competition and many more.

I really enjoyed this interview as a mental trainer, cellist and just as myself. It is an inspiring interview and discussion. I hope you get a taste of the inspiration we felt while making this episode.

Mendelssohn: Variations sérieuses, op. 54

Mozart: Sonata in D major K. 576, Allegro

During three decades Alban Faust has performed on prominent folk music scenes throughout Europe, both as a soloist and with different bands. He has also built instruments and developed their design to a new level and brought back old traditional instrument from the dead. The instruments he makes are Swedish bagpipes and he has created his own design on the Nyckel harp called Alban Fast that is made in Vienna.

His musical programs are varied and are adapted to every musical occasion. Alban's instruments, the keyed-fiddle and the bagpipes invite the audiences to an amazing journey through his home district in Sweden:From the polkas' magical rhythm, over the majestic harmonies of the wedding march to the melancholic sadness of the ballad. Music from the past or music Alban him self composed. Sometimes Alban spice the performance with ballads accompanied on the guitar

In 2009 Alban Faust got The Zorn brand in silver, which gives him the right to title himself the national player. He has also received the Dalsland Medal and Mellerud Municipality's cultural award.

Corona times and we are all locked up in our houses, concerts are cancelled and we are asking what should we do now?

I have made a smaller episode where I share some of our podcast's eminent and brilliant guest's advice. Susanne Schimack talks about rejection and a singer's daily challenges in practising, Fenna Ograjensik talks about how music affects your brain and body. We get the best advice from Peter Powell and his strategies to make and get concerts, Eric Diteren talks about how to build a good business. Morten shares his secrets as a conductor with us on how to make an orchestra sound brilliant. It is a short cut into the episodes and it might spread some light into the dark times we are facing. You can listen to the entire episodes in full length, for free, below. Use the time to make yourself strong and to do all the things you never had time to do that is involving self-isolation.

I am here with the fifteen free Master in Music episodes and we will keep you company. I wish you all the best, if you like the podcast and want to support us take a screenshot and tag @swedishcellist on Instagram or @masterinmusic on Facebook, we hope to reach everyone that feels alone out there.
