  • GERSHWIN by GROFÉ Symphonic Jazz Original Orchestrations & Grofé/Whiteman Orchestra Arrangements
    NB: Since the cd booklet program notes are abridged, we have provided the complete notes with more detailed information below: GERSHWIN by GROFÉ Symphonic Jazz Original Orchestrations & Grofé/Whiteman Orchestra Arrangements STEVEN RICHMAN, conductor Lincoln Mayorga, piano Al Gallodoro, alto sax, clarinet, bass clarinet Harmonie Ensemble/New York Harmonia Mundi CD 907492 Program Notes During the 1920s, there existed a symbiotic relationship between George Gershwin, Paul Whiteman, and Ferde Grofé that was both fascinating and fruitful. This remarkable trio had had some association during the 1922 edition of the George White Scandals, for which Gershwin composed the score, with lyrics by Buddy DeSylva and, in the case of the hit song, “I’ll Build a Stairway to Paradise,” George’s brother Ira as well (as Arthur Francis). But their only other collaboration, and the one upon which a significant chapter of American music turned, occurred during the creation of the Rhapsody in Blue for the historic concert at Aeolian Hall in New York City on February 12, 1924, which Whiteman called “An Experiment in Modern American Music.” Each of the three made a significant contribution to the birthing of this landmark piece which epitomized, and indeed was the arguably the finest example of, the genre of music known as “symphonic jazz.” For nearly ten years, Whiteman, who had been classically trained, and formerly a violinist in the San Francisco Symphony, had contemplated the amalgamation of classical music and jazz. Beginning with the organization of his hotel bands in California in 1918, he began to experiment with this concept, which he termed “symphonic jazz.” By the fall of 1920 he had come east, and the nine-piece band that he had assembled quickly took New York by storm.

  • What It Takes to Be a Successful Concert Artist: Conversations with World Renowned Musicians by Rebecca Jackson
    What it Takes to be a Successful Concert Artist: Conversations with World Renowned Musicians By Rebecca Jackson Introduction How does one become a successful concert artist? During my twenty one years of studying and performing as a violinist I continue to witness many like myself spend tireless hours trying to master the great works. Besides the obvious requirement of work on your craft I have always been curious of other factors present in the journey musicians take to establish their success. Why become a classical musician in the first place? Odds don't seem to be stacked in our favor. At first glance, what you see on stage may seem glamorous. Hundreds of people flock to watch and listen to beautiful music performed effortlessly. Paganini, Liszt, Heifetz, and Horowitz are some of the legendary performers that come to mind. Despite the initial attraction, the life of a musician is strewn with difficulties and unpredictabilities. Leila Josefowicz said, “The lifestyle of this whole business is awful. I'll not mince words about that.”1 The unattractive aspects I have observed create a substantial list: (1) It is a life led in solitude within the four walls of a practice room. While I was studying at Juilliard the average daily practice session was between five and eight hours. And this is a ritual that begins very early in life. (2) Musicians spend equal if not more time studying than doctors and yet “starving artist” depicts the characteristically little money we earn. (3) One endures constant scrutiny. Even the note-perfect Heifetz made Dallas front-page news, “HEIFETZ FORGETS,” when music came to a stop during the Sibelius Violin Concerto.2 (4) Perfectionism is a common trait making it rare to feel completely satisfied with one's performance.
