It is somewhat delightful to start thinking about the wonderful concerts coming up in the 2017-2018 season and selecting just the right mix of Classics concerts, Air Canada Pops concerts and Specials, while at the same time savouring every moment of the concerts remaining in the 2016-2017 season. This is indeed a special time of year. Spend time with the season brochure and visit the web site, wso.ca, for more information on the concerts next year. Be certain to book your subscriptions by April 9th so that your name can be entered into the draw for Air Canada tickets to any North American location served by Air Canada. As you know, the coming season is our 70th Anniversary Season. There are many concerts that pay homage to the WSO’s wonderful history while also pointing toward new opportunities and, as we think about the coming year, we want to encourage subscribers to share personal stories of their connections with the WSO.Tell us about the ways the WSO has had an impact on your life. Stories can be funny, serious, or thought provoking. Send you contributions to this project to [email protected] so that we can use these glimpses into WSO history throughout the year. Photos would also be appreciated. Tell us about your favourite concerts, the funniest moments, your WSO traditions; all of this is part of the legacy of a seventy-year-old organization at work in its community. The concerts featured this month are among the finest we offer this season. Hear the celebrated Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt, don’t miss the opportunity to poke a little fun at symphonic traditions with Second City’s Guide to the Orchestra, immerse yourself in the glorious texts and melodies from Mendelsohn’s Elijah, and take in a children’s concert featuring the always entertaining Mr. Mark.This March, we also begin our Thursday Night Classics series at the Club Regent Event Centre.

Critics have noted Alexander’s extraordinary command over the Austro-Germanic repertoire, commenting on the “passion, profundity, emotional intensity, subtlety and degree of perfection achieved” in Bruckner’s Symphony Photographer: Grajewski Fotograph Inc. No. 7 as “miraculous” (Anton Kuerti, 2011). Following on from his tenure as Assistant Conductor with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, which he completed in 2004, Alexander Mickelthwate was Associate Conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic for three years, under the direction of Essa-Pekka Salonen. Now in his tenth season as Music Director of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Alexander has significantly developed the orchestra’s profile through active community engagement and innovative programming initiatives like the annual Winnipeg New Music Festival and the Indigenous Music Festival. Chosen to perform at the Carnegie Hall Spring For Music Festival in New York, May 2014, due to “creative and innovative programming” (CBC Manitoba Scene), the orchestra was the only Canadian ensemble in the showcase. Julian Pellicano, Resident Conductor Julian Pellicano’s boundless musical appetite makes him a formidable interpreter of the symphonic repertoire as well as a versatile conductor in a wide range of genres. He is currently the Resident Conductor of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Artist in Residence at the Norfolk Chamber Music festival, and Music Director of the University of Manitoba Symphony Orchestra. From 2009 to 2013, he served as Music Director of the Photographer: Nardella Photography Inc.

An autodidact, he was accepted to the Peabody Conservatory as a percussionist without typical classical training. He also holds degrees from the Royal College of Music (Stockholm), and the Yale School of Music where he was awarded the 2008 Presser Music Award and the Philip F.Nelson Award. Harry Stafylakis, Composer-in-Residence Harry Stafylakis (b. 1982, Montreal) is a Canadian–American composer based in NYC.

  • Impreza World Soundtrack Awards W Gandawie Stała Się Inspiracją Dla Powstania Podobnych W Całej Europie
    Impreza World Soundtrack Awards w Gandawie stała się inspiracją dla powstania podobnych w całej Europie Melinda Newman Z wyjątkiem kilku najbardziej znanych nazwisk, większość kompozytorów ciężko pracuje w cieniu największych gwiazd i reżyserów filmowych. Wyjątek stanowi sześć europejskich festiwali muzyki filmowej, podczas których to oni – oraz ich muzyka – są w centrum zainteresowania i błyszczą w świetle reflektorów. Podczas tegorocznej drugiej edycji Międzynarodowego Festiwalu Muzyki Filmowej w hiszpańskiej Kordobie, rozdawanie autografów „trwało trzy godziny”, jak wspomina Mike Todd, starszy dyrektor ds. muzyki filmowej i telewizyjnej oraz nowych mediów ASCAP (Amerykańskie Stowarzyszenie Kompozytorów, Autorów i Wydawców). – Twórcy muzyki filmowej są tam traktowani jak gwiazdy rocka. Wiceprezes BMI ds. relacji z branżą filmową/telewizyjną, Doreen Ringer Ross, wspomina jak podczas jednego z festiwali kompozytor Christophera Lennertz otrzymał „owację na stojąco”, idąc do łazienki. „Dziadkiem” tych spotkań promujących kompozytorów pozostaje Flamandzki Międzynarodowy Festiwal Filmowy (znany również jako Film Fest Ghent) odbywający się w Gandawie w Belgii, którego kulminację stanowią różnorodne koncerty muzyki na żywo z udziałem zaproszonych filmowych maestro – organizowane już od 1985 roku – oraz impreza World Soundtrack Awards, zorganizowana po raz pierwszy w roku 2001. W październiku tego roku festiwal filmowy kończy 40 lat – okazja ta zostanie uczczona czterdziestoma 1-minutowymi utworami autorstwa 40 różnych kompozytorów, które zostaną odegrane na żywo. Pośród ich twórców znaleźli się zdobywcy Oskara: Mychael Danna, Dario Marianelli, Rachel Portman, Gustavo Santaolalla i Gabriel Yared. Drugim najstarszym festiwalem jest ten odbywający się w Kordobie, który przeniósł się tam w ubiegłym roku po siedmiu latach w Ubedzie. Fimucite, festiwal odbywający się na Teneryfie na Wyspach Kanaryjskich w lipcu obchodził swoją siódmą edycję.

Clemens Krauss, who had also written the libretto, was the conductor, and the role of Countess Madeleine, the main character, was taken by Krauss' s wife, the soprano Viorica Ursuleac. The year 1941 found Strauss and his own wife in poor health, depressed by the war, worried about prospects for their Jewish daughter-in-law and half- Jewish grandson, and dismayed by the ever more chilly treatment the composer was getting at the hands of the German government (Strauss was not a Nazi, but he was not an outspoken opponent either, and he despised the Nazis no more than any other political party).

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).
