Change is good, and for that reason alone we’re looking at another remarkable year in the realm of classical and contemporary music. In 2018-19, we get to see what the new leader of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra has to offer—and the signs already suggest that Otto Tausk is up to the job of replacing the dynamic Bramwell Tovey. On a smaller level, the Western Front has found the perfect person to replace 24-year veteran DB Boyko as its new-music curator: Aram Bajakian is internationally respected as a musician and composer, and has a deep knowledge of art forms both historic and avant-garde. We’ll also be following the Vancouver Chamber Choir’s search to replace artistic director Jon Washburn, and we can already say that any of the candidates will be an asset to this city and its culture. So let’s remember that “May you live in interesting times” is not always a curse! Renée Fleming (At the Orpheum on September 20) Otto Tausk’s formal debut as the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s new music director takes place over the following two nights, but first he’ll be on the podium to usher in famed soprano Renée Fleming.

  • International Conference on the Concepts and Practices of Choral Singing Lund, Sweden, October 17-20, 2012
    Choir in Focus International Conference on the Concepts and Practices of Choral Singing Lund, Sweden, October 17-20, 2012 This conference is organised by the network Choir in Focus in connection with Southern Choral Centre and Musik i Syd and supported by Allhemsstiftelsen. It will take place within the framework of Lund Choral Festival 2012 (http://www.lundchoralfestival.org/in-english/). In order to make visible and available the contemporary dynamic development of choral research, this conference aims at encouraging communication between theory and practice. With the integration of the conference into Lund Choral Festival, the purpose is to highlight interdisciplinary investigations and interaction between practice-based and historical approaches in choral research. Researching choir culture demands and encourages a multitude of research strategies in different disciplines. The papers focus the interaction of choral concepts and practices since the 18th century, especially on the following themes: 1. Conceptualisations of Choral Practices and Musics, 2. Theories and Methods of Choral Research and 3. Psychological and Social Dimensions of Choral Singing Keynote speakers: Prof. Andreas C.

  • Reflections on Chilcott's Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir
    Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem y b Members of the ChancelReflections Choir on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Requiem Bob Chilcott Robert “Bob” Chilcott, born in 1955, is a British choral composer, conductor, and singer. He sang in the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge, both as a boy and as a university student. In 1985 he joined the King’s Singers, singing tenor for 12 years. Chilcott began composing in 1997, and has had remarkable success since that time. TheRequiem was premiered on March 13, 2010, at the Sheldonian in Oxford, England, by the Oxford Bach Choir and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It was first performed in the United States at Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church, Dallas, Texas. Requiem is dedicated to Chilcott’s niece, who died at age 23, while he was composing the piece. It is beautifully reflective, and at the same time is given focus and direction by the composer’s keen sense of melody and innate feeling for rhythm, be it in the lyrical, rolling tenor solo in the Angus Dei, or the crystal simplicity of the Pie Jesu; the gently pulsing first few bars of the Introit, or the driving irregular beats of the Sanctus. The work’s components develop at different paces—it is hard to put a finger on one particular moment of arrival. The Sanctus, with its dance-like patterns, provides the dynamic peak of Requiem; the Pie Jesu perhaps offers the emotional center of the work; and Thou Knowest, Lord presents a central point for the text.
