Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra for His Plucky Take on Vivaldi’S Four Seasons from the executive director dear friends, It is a season of change at LACO as new faces shift into leadership roles, and we continue to expand into new venues. Music director designate Jaime Martín visits often, culminating in a two-week April and May residency to conduct Mozart’s Requiem and Bryce Dessner’s Voy a Dormir, appear throughout the community and lead a Spanish-themed Gala – mark your calendars for Thursday, May 2, 2019. Long-time LACO supporter Leslie Lassiter began her term as Board Chair over the summer, bringing to the helm her lifelong passion and advocacy for orchestral and chamber music, as well as her commitment to commissioning the country’s leading young West photo Ryan composers. I know that Leslie is eager to hear your thoughts as we continue to foster the dialogue that exists among LACO’s audiences, musicians, board and the wider community. Derrick Spiva, Jr., whose infectious music you’ve now heard twice on our Orchestral Series, has been appointed Artist Educator, a role that places him at the creative intersection of our concert and community offerings, strengthening each through the belief that great artistry and authentic outreach are mutually-reinforcing endeavors. On October 4, you can peek into Derrick’s curatorial mind with SESSION at Hauser & Wirth in downtown’s Arts District. He also hosts Meet the Music concerts for Los Angeles-area schoolchildren and mentors four of the newest members of the LACO family, the first class of The LA Orchestra Fellowship participants. These four early-career musicians of color will take a two-year journey with LACO, Inner City Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles and USC Thornton School of Music to prepare them to be virtuoso performers – and virtuoso agents of change – across the classical music field. Our LACO musicians – renowned not only for their on-stage artistry, but also as some of the region’s top teachers – will be there guiding the fellows towards their musical and career goals. Learn more about The LA Orchestra Fellowship on page 15. As for those new venues? LACO expands its commitment to the Westside with Baroque Conversations at the St. Monica and First Presbyterian churches in Santa Monica while extending our Valley presence through another partnership with the Soraya at CSU Northridge in November. We return to Santa Barbara’s Granada Theatre in December, presented by the Community Music and Arts Association, to honor that storied institution’s centennial and the resilience of the Santa Barbara community this past year. On December 11, 13 and 14, mandolin phenom Avi Avital joins Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra for his plucky take on Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. On pages 51-55, journalist Donald Munro explores why the seasons – with their association with change, renewal, birth and passing – have fascinated composers and creators across multiple genres and successive centuries. In the spring, we return to the Huntington’s Rothenberg Hall, scene of last year’s sold out inaugural In Focus concerts. Curated by concertmaster Margaret Batjer, In Focus is your chance to experience LACO on a more intimate scale. We also step into the recording studio this fall with Margaret and conductor laureate Jeffrey Kahane for a forthcoming release of concertos for violin and chamber orchestra. As LACO's new season begins, our legacy of intimate and transformative musical and community experiences continues. We are, as always, humbled to be taking this journey with you, inspired and sustained by your support.

    L.A. Chamber Orchestra's 2018-19 Season Features Three World Premieres broadwayworld.com/los-angeles/article/LA-Chamber-Orchestras-2018-19-Season-Features-Three-World-Premieres- 20180129 by BWW News January 29, 2018 Desk Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra (LACO), one of the nation's premier music ensembles and a leader in presenting wide-ranging repertoire and adventurous commissions, announces broadened collaborations and inventive new programming for its 2018-19 season. Opening in September 2018 and continuing into May 2019, the season spotlights LACO's virtuosic artists and builds upon the Orchestra's five decades of intimate and transformative musical programs. Highlighting an eight-program Orchestral Series are two world premieres and a West Coast premiere, all LACO commissions/co-commissions, including the world premiere of celebrated film composer James Newton Howard's Cello Concerto, a world premiere by Los Angeles composer Sarah Gibson and a West Coast premiere by Bryce Dessner, best known as a member of the Grammy Award-nominated band The National and a force in new music. The series also features a broad array of works by other internationally- renowned living composers, among them LACO's Creative Advisor Andrew Norman, Matthias Pintscher, Arvo Pärt and Gabriella Smith. A versatile and diverse array of exceptional guest artists range from classical music's most eminent to those who have more recently established themselves as among the most compelling musicians of their generation. They include Hilary Hahn and Jennifer Koh, violins; Jonathan Biss, piano; Anthony McGill, clarinet; Lydia Teuscher, soprano; Kelley O'Connor and Michelle DeYoung, mezzo-sopranos; Tuomas Katajala, tenor; and conductors David Danzmayr, Thomas Dausgaard, Bernard Labadie, Jaime Martín, Gemma New, Peter Oundjian, Pintscher and Jeffrey Kahane, who stepped down as LACO Music Director in June 2017 after a 20-year tenure and makes his second appearance as Conductor Laureate.

Great singers have the ability to communicate deep layers of meaning in a text, teasing out ever more nuanced understandings of the com- poser’s intentions. But Lorraine Hunt Lieberson took this a step further. She made it seem as if she wrote the poetry herself. And Lorraine made it seem as if she were singing this music directly to you and to you alone in the theater. Lorraine addressed the importance of this direct communication in her appreciation of other singers as well. “I like to listen to singers,” she said, “where I feel the direct openness of the heart in the voice.”1 Lorraine acted through the sound and the music, often standing quietly and intensely, while weaving emotional tapestries with the text and delivering vocal lines of glory.

From the start of the Baroque Period a hundred years earlier, skilled craftsmen like Gasparo da Salò advanced string instrument building technique until it reached its apex with the instruments of Antonio Stradivari and Giuseppe Guarneri. The burgeoning music publishing industry also inspired composers to write pieces that would stand out and establish their international reputations.

  • The 2018 Guide Festivals
    April 2018 The 2018 Guide Festivals FEATURE ARTICLE 10 Questions, Two (Very Different) Festivals Editor’s Note Our fifth annual Guide to Summer Festivals is our biggest yet, with some 85 annotated entries, plus our usual free access to the 1400 listings in the Musical America database. The details for the 85—dates, locations, artistic directors, programming, guest artists, etc.—have been provided by the festivals themselves, in response to a questionnaire sent to our list of Editor’s Picks. Those are determined by a number of factors: it’s hardly a surprise to see the big-budget events, such as Salzburg, Tanglewood, and Aspen, included. But budget is by no means the sole criterion. The 2018 Guide Programming, performers, range and type of events offered—all of these factor into the equation. For our feature article, we chose two highly regarded events and asked them one set of questions, just for the purposes of compare and contrast. Since George Loomis traveled to Ravenna last summer and knows Ojai well, we decided he was the perfect candidate to get the answers. Our hunch that the two couldn’t be more different turned out to be quite accurate: one takes place over a weekend, the over a two-month period; one is in the U.S., the other in Europe; one is rural, the other urban; one’s in a valley, the other by the sea; one focuses on contemporary fare, the other on traditional; one houses its artists in homes, the other in hotels; one is overseen by a man, the other by Festivals a woman; Ojai’s venues are primarily outdoor and strictly 20th century, Ravenna’s are mostly indoor and date as far back as the sixth century.
