		Christopher was a write-in candidate for local elective office, and his death was mourned not only by his slop-bearers but by friends around the world.
		Christopher grew large --- topping 700 pounds from having been a runt with a tenuous hold on early life --- and smart, able to unlock complicated hasps and having a mind to roam.
		Christopher inspired trust and was beloved by children, some of whom proclaimed him better than a horse.

	Hogwood's attempts at Mozartean authenticity fail utterly
		Hogwood omitted to add that it was also common practice in the eighteenth century to talk during the performance itself, and to hiss and boo if it was not to the audience's satisfaction.
		Hogwood's misguided invitation to authenticity led to applause interrupting the flow of each work, acknowledged each time by Hogwood with a self-indulgent little bow.
		In it Hogwood bemoans the modern tendencies towards "extremes of stimulation incompatible with the code of intention of the creator; we have asked, as it were, for the Rembrandt to be relegated to the gallery store-room and a twelve times enlargement with "color enhancement" to be hung in its place.

	Hogwood anestheizes; Sinfonia pleasant, not powerful
		It's not that the orchestra played badly from a technical perspective; it's that Hogwood's readings were for the most part lifeless, and failed to stir the imagination.
		Hogwood, now firmly settled into elegant-elevator-music-autopilot mode, continued with a colorless account of Ravel's Pavane pour une infante d'efunte.
		There was a natural horn, which Hogwood had told the audience Ravel had demanded; but this alone could not make the performance "authentic," much less, inspired or enjoyable: the notes may have been played correctly, but there was no tone-painting; and there was no poignancy, no humanity, no art.

	classical music - andante - christopher hogwood's recordings of handel's concerti grossi op. 3 and 6 ...
		Christopher Hogwood, conductor laureate of the H and H, presides over brisk, breezy readings of these wonderful concerti, with the six works assembled from various sources and published as Opus 3 particularly appealing in their exploitation of wind colour from a variety of instruments.
		There is an occasional asperity and astringency of tone and phrasing here which remind us that Hogwood was one of the early voices crying in the wilderness proclaiming "period" performance, and in those pioneering years hearing such revelations was sometimes a hairshirt experience.
		Thanks to the continuing explorations of such as Hogwood we have come a long way since those muesli-munching days, with "period" performance quite rightly the natural vehicle, but something of a hangover from that epoch remains.

		When she adopts a sickly runt from a litter of pigs, naming him Christopher Hogwood after the symphony conductor, raising him for slaughter isn't an option: Montgomery's a vegetarian and her husband is Jewish.
		Montgomery's love for Christopher (and later for Tess, an adopted border collie) dominates the memoir's emotional space, but she's also demonstrably grateful for the friendships the pig sparks within her community.
		The humor with which she recounts Christopher's meticulous eating habits and love of digging up turf is sure to charm readers.

		Hogwood and the AAM have been known to produce some dull and lacklustre recordings in the past--stay away, if you can, from their limp Brandenburg Concertos, or their workmanlike but unexciting Vivaldi recordings--but for some reason Handel and the AAM are made for each other.
		Hogwood and forces recorded this most famous of Handel's oratorios in 1980, and used the Choir of Westminster Abbey, where boys replace women for the soprano and alto parts.
		Hogwood's soloists are all excellent, and he uses 2 different sopranos in the recitatives and arias, with differing voice colors and expression.

	Alison Bury - Vivaldi - The Four Seasons / AAM · Christopher Hogwood @ Soundbug
		Christopher Hogwood's interpretation and The Academy of Ancient Music's performance of Vivaldi's Four Seasons still holds it's own as the best interpretation available, even thou there are many new interpretations by new original instrument groups.
		Hogwood strikes a balance between the rough sometimes unpleasant sound of the Biondi, Antonini, and Harnoncourt and the boring modern instrument interpretations (although they are starting to imitate these groups interpretations).
		Hogwood has just the right amount of passion without it disintegrating the performance.

		Technically, Hogwood and the Academy are as proficient and musically adept as ever.

		Today Mozart's Messiah is generally sung in English (outside Germany and Austria); as this production, led by Christopher Hogwood (principal guest conductor of the Belgian chamber orchestra Beethoven Academie) also toured to Germany, what the Antwerp audience heard was not Messiah but Der Messias.
		Christopher Hogwood's 1980 recording (for L'Oiseau-Lyre, now on Decca) of the 1754 Foundling Hospital version of this oratorio was near-universally acclaimed and won several awards.
		Hogwood opted for slow tempos throughout but failed to maintain the necessary momentum.

		Yet Sy had no inkling that this piglet, later named Christopher Hogwood, would not only survive but flourish --- and she soon found herself engaged with her small-town community in ways she had never dreamed possible.
		THE GOOD GOOD PIG celebrates Christopher Hogwood in all his glory, from his inauspicious infancy to hog heaven in rural New Hampshire, where his boundless zest for life and his large, loving heart made him absolute monarch over a (mostly) peaceable kingdom.
		But as this enchanting book describes, Christopher Hogwood's influence extended far beyond celebrity; for he was, as a friend said, a great big Buddha master.

		Christopher Hogwood's jaunty accounts with the Academy of Ancient Music, from 1984, are characterful though less than impressively recorded.
		Hogwood has made sensible rather than radical decisions, and we are very likely enjoying the music as the Margrave did originally.
		However, here Hogwood gives a performance that is more convincing than a lot of newer "period" performances, which to me often seem more influenced by rock than baroque.
