ACCESS TO AND RIGHTS TO USE RECREATIONAL AMENITIES WITHIN SHOOTING STAR MAY BE SUBJECT TO PAYMENT OF USE FEES, MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS, OR OTHER LIMITATIONS. FROM THE MUSIC DIRECTOR Donald Runnicles “You are as good as your last performance.” Such are the vicissitudes of our profession that, with the potential for success or, indeed, failure, this familiar maxim rings in most performers’ minds as portentously and intensely as ever. And so it goes with the planning, selection, and execution of every concert at our Grand Teton Music Festival—where our focus remains on each concert, on every new season living up to the promise and excellence of the last. So it all began for me in that heady 2006 summer season. Much like a traveler, fully engrossed and absorbed in every detail of a gripping novel, who looks up to determine with surprise that the scenery is different, unexpected, the station potentially missed—so, too, I look up. It is summer 2016, and with some incredulity, I try to grasp the reality: This, already, is my 10th year as Music Director. What an extraordinary decade. With pride and enormous pleasure I reflect on the deep musical and personal bonds forged in these special years between musicians; between our soloists and musicians; between you, our loyal and dedicated audience, and our performers—verily, between our souls and this heavenly landscape. Of course, the most precious bond of all is always forged anew—that between the music and ourselves. In that spirit, may the new 2016 season excite you, inspire you, soothe and elevate you. In our dizzyingly evolving world, may you find comfort in some things never changing! May our long list of the world’s finest musicians who grace the valley every year with their passion and presence thrive and grow. As you browse through the chamber and orchestral repertoire over the next seven weeks, may you be filled with the same eager anticipation in welcoming back our family—Lynn Harrell, Kelley O’Connor, Colin Currie, Jonathan Biss, and Simone Porter—as in welcoming those new to our Festival, all brilliant performers and remarkable ambassadors of our art—Maestri Conlon, Canellakis, and Feddeck, as well as Nicola Benedetti, Johannes Moser, and the Naughton sisters. It simply does not get any better. Until next season, that is … As I enter a second decade at the helm of this unique, astonishing Grand Teton Music Festival, I thank you most profoundly for your trust, respect, and support. And now I return with relish to that figurative book, eager to discover what the future chapters will hold. Humbly, gratefully, Donald Runnicles FROM THE BOARD PRESIDENT AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Sylvia Neil & Andrew Palmer Todd On behalf of the Grand Teton Music Festival, welcome to our 55th season! Whether you are returning for another summer of glorious music or discovering the Festival for the first time, we can assure you that your experience will be a memorable one. With more than 40 musical events throughout Jackson Hole, this summer truly has something for everyone. This year marks an important milestone for the Grand Teton Music Festival as we commemorate Donald Runnicles’ 10th anniversary as Music Director. We are fortunate to have in Maestro Runnicles a conductor whose music making and musical relationships span the globe. Whether at the Deutsche Oper in Berlin, the Berlin Philharmonic, the Atlanta Symphony, the Philadelphia Orchestra, or many other internationally acclaimed ensembles, Donald spreads the word about our jewel of a Festival in Jackson Hole, which he fondly refers to as his “American home.” It is his presence in the world’s musical centers that has allowed the Grand Teton Music Festival to recruit and retain the best orchestral players worldwide. Over the past 10 years, you have seen evidence of Donald’s musical reputation throughout the programs in the soloists, many of them dear friends, who have appeared with the Festival Orchestra. In this anniversary season, that tradition continues with the appearances of cellist Lynn Harrell, mezzo-soprano Kelley O’Connor, the National Collegiate Chorale of Scotland, and so many others. Following last year’s successful Gala Concert with opera star Renée Fleming, we are very excited to present international violin superstar Joshua Bell in a Gala Performance with the Festival Orchestra, conducted by our own Donald Runnicles. In addition to the impressive summer offerings that our audience has grown accustomed to from our chamber music and Festival Orchestra, you will also want to take note of other key events and concerts this summer, including our first-ever “club concert” with Time for Three at the Pink Garter Theatre and a fun evening of Big Band favorites with the Richard Brown Orchestra at the Center for the Arts. The Festival’s board and staff are passionate about serving Jackson Hole. After all, the Grand Teton Music Festival is something that belongs to the entire community. That is why we present concerts in multiple venues and formats around the town, all with an eye toward increasing accessibility. It is also why you will notice that we have a new Family Series this summer with a concert each week geared toward our future audience and anyone else who is young at heart. We want to thank the many individuals who tirelessly work to promote and support the Grand Teton Music Festival as we expand our role beyond the summer and into our community—the Board of Directors, the Festival Auxiliary, our many generous donors, and dedicated year-round staff. We especially want to thank the more than 200 orchestral musicians from across North America and around the world who choose to take part in this special and unique Festival.

  • Music, Corporate Power, and Unending War
    03Scherzinger.qxd 5/20/2005 1:43 PM Page 23 MUSIC, CORPORATE POWER, AND UNENDING WAR Martin Scherzinger The triumph of advertising in the culture industry is that consumers feel compelled to buy and use its products even though they see through it. —Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno INTRODUCTION: IN QUEST OF A NEWER MUSICOLOGY Sixty years after its original publication, Max Horkheimer and Theo- dor W. Adorno’s Dialektic der Aufklärung resonates uncannily with our times. The central motifs of their bleak and horrifying diagnosis of the culture industry ring as true today as ever. While contemporary critics mostly regard Horkheimer and Adorno’s analysis of audience demand and reception dynamics as antiquated, this essay argues for the continued relevance of their indictment of culture under the (oppressive) authority of monopoly capital. In particular, the essay traces an emergent Schulterschluss between commercial and political power, with a special interest in the involvement of the music indus- try and the media conglomerates. This is not to say that contem- porary America operates under identical rules and constraints as the America of the 1940s. It does not. Nor is it to argue that capitalist America essentially approximates fascism, as Horkheimer and Adorno sometimes imply. The opening arguments of “The Culture Industry: Enlightenment as Mass Deception,” for example, are predicated on this fundamental similarity: “Even the aesthetic activities of political opposites are one in their enthusiastic obedience to the rhythm of the iron system. The decorative industrial management of buildings and exhibition centers in authoritarian countries are much the same as anywhere else” (1997, 120).

  • Brand New Beat
    Ready for a BRAND NEW BEAT How “DANCING IN THE STREET” Became the Anthem for a Changing America MARK KURLANSKY Riverhead Books A member of Penguin Group (USA) Inc. New York 2013 C H APT E R O N E ARE YOU RE ADY? or my generation rock was not a controversy, it was a fact. F My earliest memory of rock ’n’ roll is Elvis Presley. For others it may be Bill Haley or Chuck Berry. For people born soon after World War II, rock ’n’ roll was a part of childhood. The rock- ers, especially Elvis, are remembered as controversies. But there was no controversy among the kids. They loved the songs, their sense of mischief and especially the driving beat. The controversy came from adults. Only adults attacked Elvis or rock ’n’ roll. The controversy was only in their minds—on their lips. It was the begin- ning of what came to be known as “the generation gap,” a phrase coined by Columbia University president Grayson Kirk in April 1968, shortly before students seized control of his campus. There has never been an American generation that so identified with its music, regarded it as its own, the way the Americans who grew up in the 1950s and 1960s did. The music that started as a subversive movement took over the culture and became a huge, commercially dominant industry. The greatest of the many seismic shifts in the music industry is that young people became the target audience. In no previous generation had the main thrust of popular music been an attempt to appeal to people in their teens.

  • Early Methodism in and Around Chester, 1749-1812
    EARIvY METHODISM IN AND AROUND CHESTER — Among the many ancient cities in England which interest the traveller, and delight the antiquary, few, if any, can surpass Chester. Its walls, its bridges, its ruined priory, its many churches, its old houses, its almost unique " rows," all arrest and repay attention. The cathedral, though not one of the largest or most magnificent, recalls many names which deserve to be remembered The name of Matthew Henry sheds lustre on the city in which he spent fifteen years of his fruitful ministry ; and a monument has been most properly erected to his honour in one of the public thoroughfares, Methodists, too, equally with Churchmen and Dissenters, have reason to regard Chester with interest, and associate with it some of the most blessed names in their briefer history. ... By John Wesley made the head of a Circuit which reached from Warrington to Shrewsbury, it has the unique distinction of being the only Circuit which John Fletcher was ever appointed to superintend, with his curate and two other preachers to assist him. Probably no other Circuit in the Connexion has produced four preachers who have filled the chair of the Conference. But from Chester came Richard Reece, and John Gaulter, and the late Rev. John Bowers ; and a still greater orator than either, if not the most effective of all who have been raised up among us, Samuel Bradburn.

Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates.
