From the Orchestra’s home in Verizon Hall to the Carnegie Hall stage, his highly collaborative style, deeply-rooted musical curiosity, and boundless enthusiasm, paired with a fresh approach to orchestral programming, have been heralded by critics and audiences alike. The New York Times has called Yannick “phenomenal,” adding that under his baton, “the ensemble, famous for its glowing strings and homogenous richness, has never sounded better.” Over the past decade, Yannick has established himself as a musical leader of the highest caliber and one of the most exciting talents of his generation. Since 2008 he has been music director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic and principal guest conductor of the London Philharmonic, and since 2000 artistic director and principal conductor of Montreal’s Orchestre Métropolitain. He has appeared with such revered ensembles as the Vienna and Berlin philharmonics; the Boston Symphony; the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia; the Dresden Staatskapelle; the Chamber Orchestra of Europe; and the major Canadian orchestras. His talents extend beyond symphonic music into opera and choral music, leading acclaimed performances at the Metropolitan Opera, La Scala, London’s Royal Opera House, and the Salzburg Festival. In February 2013, following the July 2012 announcement of a major long-term collaboration between Yannick and Deutsch Grammophon, the Orchestra announced a recording project with the label, in which Yannick and the Orchestra will record Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring. His discography with the Rotterdam Philharmonic for BIS Records and EMI/Virgin includes an Edison Award-winning album of Ravel’s orchestral works. He has also recorded several award-winning albums with the Orchestre Métropolitain for ATMA Classique. A native of Montreal, Yannick studied at that city’s Conservatory of Music and continued studies with renowned conductor Carlo Maria Giulini and with Joseph Flummerfelt at Westminster Choir College. In 2012 Yannick was appointed a Companion of the Order of Canada, one of the country’s highest civilian honors. His other honors include Canada’s National Arts Centre Award; a Royal Philharmonic Society Award; the Prix Denise-Pelletier, the highest distinction for the arts in Quebec; and an honorary doctorate by the University of Quebec in Montreal.

He has been chief conductor and artistic director of the Berlin Philharmonic since 2002. From 1980 to 1998 he was principal conductor and artistic adviser, then music director, of the City of Birmingham Symphony, recording and touring extensively with the ensemble. Recent season highlights have included projects with the Vienna Philharmonic, the Rotterdam Philharmonic, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the Metropolitan Opera, the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, and the Royal Opera, Covent Garden. An exclusive EMI artist for many years, Mr. Rattle has made over 70 recordings for the label that have received numerous international awards. Recent releases with the Berlin Philharmonic include Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring and Bizet’s Carmen. Other recordings include Brahms’s Requiem, which won a Grammy Award in 2008 for Best Choral Performance; Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms, which won the 2009 Grammy for Best Choral Performance; Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique; Mahler’s Second and Ninth symphonies; and Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9. With the Vienna Philharmonic he has recorded the complete Beethoven symphonies and piano concertos with Alfred Brendel. Born in Liverpool, Mr. Rattle studied at the Royal Academy of Music. He was knighted in 1994 by the Queen of England and has received many other distinctions in recognition of his artistic activities. Since taking up his appointment with the Berlin Philharmonic, he has broken new ground with the educational program Zunkunft@ Bphil. He and the Philharmonic were appointed international UNICEF ambassadors, the first time the honor has been conferred on an artistic ensemble. In 2013 Mr. Rattle and the Philharmonic begin a residency at the Baden-Baden Easter Festival, performing Mozart’s The Magic Flute and a series of concerts. Highlights of upcoming seasons include opera performances in Vienna, Berlin, London, and at the Salzburg Festival; extensive touring with the Berlin Philharmonic; and projects with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the Vienna Philharmonic, and The Philadelphia Orchestra. 31 Soloist Marco Borggreve Soprano Barbara Hannigan makes her Philadelphia Orchestra debut with these performances. A frequent guest of the Berlin Philharmonic, she has also appeared with most of the other leading orchestras worldwide, with such conductors as Simon Rattle, Pierre Boulez, Reinbert de Leeuw, Vladimir Jurowski, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Kurt Masur, Alan Gilbert, and Jukka-Pekka Saraste. Ms. Hannigan made her own conducting debut in 2010 at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, leading Stravinsky’s Renard. Much sought after in contemporary music, Ms. Hannigan has given over 75 world premieres. Her operatic repertory has recently expanded to the roles of Agnes in George Benjamin’s Written on Skin, created for the Aix-en- Provence Festival in July 2012 and recently performed to much acclaim at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, and Berg’s Lulu at La Monnaie in Brussels. She has sung the title role in Stravinsky’s Le Rossignol, Gepopo/Venus in Ligeti’s Le Grand Macabre, and Armida in Handel’s Rinaldo, and she will make role debuts as Donna Anna in Mozart’s Don Giovanni, Melisande in Debussy’s Pelleas and Melisande, and Marie in Zimmermann’s Die Soldaten in the coming seasons. Ligeti’s Mysteries of the Macabre, a tour de force for soprano and orchestra, has become a signature work, which she has sung—and sometimes also conducted—at Lincoln Center, Disney Hall, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Théâtre du Châtelet, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, the Vienna Konzerthaus, and the Salzburg Festival. Ms. Hannigan’s talent for programming has also been widely recognized, most recently in London as co-curator of the Southbank Centre’s innovative festival “The Rest is Noise,” based on Alex Ross’s seminal book of the same name. Last season saw her undertake an acclaimed European tour with Boulez’s Pli selon pli conducted by the composer. Born and brought up in Canada, Ms. Hannigan received her Bachelor and Master of Music degrees from the University of Toronto, studying with Mary Morrison. She continued her studies at the Royal Conservatory of the Hague with Meinard Kraak and privately with Neil Semer.

  • Report to the Friends of Music
    Summer, 2020 Dear Friends of the Music Department, The 2019-20 academic year has been like no other. After a vibrant fall semester featur- ing two concerts by the Parker Quartet, the opening of the innovative Harvard ArtLab featuring performances by our faculty and students, an exciting array of courses and our inaugural department-wide throwdown–an informal sharing of performance projects by students and faculty–we began the second semester with great optimism. Meredith Monk arrived for her Fromm Professorship, Pedro Memelsdorff came to work with the Univer- sity Choir as the Christoph Wolff Scholar, Esperanza Spalding and Carolyn Abbate began co-teaching an opera development workshop about Wayne Shorter’s Iphigenia, and Vijay Iyer planned a spectacular set of Fromm Players concerts and a symposium called Black Speculative Musicalities. And then the world changed. Harvard announced on March 10, 2020 that due to COVID-19, virtual teaching would begin after spring break and the undergraduates were being sent home. We had to can- cel all subsequent spring events and radically revise our teaching by learning to conduct classes over Zoom. Our faculty, staff, and students pulled together admirably to address the changed landscape. The opera workshop (Music 187r) continued virtually; students in Vijay Iyer’s Advanced Ensemble Workshop (Music 171) created an album of original mu- sic, “Mixtape,” that is available on Bandcamp; Meredith Monk created a video of students in her choral class performing her work in progress, Fields/Clouds, and Andy Clark created an incredible performance of the Harvard Choruses for virtual graduation that involved a complicated process of additive recording over Zoom.

  • Musical and Literary Quotations in the Third Movement of Luciano Berio's
    Musical and Literary Quotations in the Third Movement of Luciano Berio’s Sinfonia Richard Lee-Thai 30024611 MUSI 333: Late Romantic and Modern Music Dr. Freidemann Sallis Due Date: Friday, April 6th 1 | P a g e Luciano Berio (1925-2003) is an Italian composer whose works have explored serialism, extended vocal and instrumental techniques, electronic compositions, and quotation music. It is this latter aspect of quotation music that forms the focus of this essay. To illustrate how Berio approaches using musical and literary quotations, the third movement of Berio’s Sinfonia will be the central piece analyzed in this essay. However, it is first necessary to discuss notable developments in Berio’s compositional style that led up to the premiere of Sinfonia in 1968. Berio’s earliest explorations into musical quotation come from his studies at the Milan Conservatory which began in 1945. In particular, he composed a Petite Suite for piano in 1947, which demonstrates an active imitation of a range of styles, including Maurice Ravel, Sergei Prokofiev and the neoclassical language of an older generation of Italian composers.1 Berio also came to grips with the serial techniques of the Second Viennese School through studying with Luigi Dallapiccola at the Tanglewood Music Festival in 1952 and analyzing his music.2 The result was an ambivalence towards the restrictive rules of serial orthodoxy. Berio’s approach was to establish a reservoir of pre-compositional resources through pitch-series and then letting his imagination guide his compositional process, whether that means transgressing or observing his pre-compositional resources. This illustrates the importance that Berio’s places on personal creativity and self-expression guiding the creation of music.

PRESS RELEASE Ljubljana, May 2019 LJUBLJANA FESTIVAL – CULTURAL HUB AT THE HEART OF YOUR SUMMER CULTURAL EXPERIENCE Every summer the Ljubljana Festival makes an important contribution to the cultural life of Ljubljana with a carefully selected programme covering a wide variety of genres. Today’s press conference in the Red Hall at Ljubljana Town Hall served to present this year’s 67th Ljubljana Festival, which will run from July until September. Once again the festival will feature ballet and opera performances, musicals, chamber and symphonic concerts, the International Fine Arts Colony, workshops for children and young people, the Ljubljana Festival on the Ljubljanica, and much more. Even before the official start of the festival, you will have the unique opportunity to hear Verdi’s Requiem conducted by the great Plácido Domingo, in his first appearance as a conductor in Slovenia. This pre-festival event will be followed at beginning of July by the most eagerly awaited cultural event of the year: the opening of the 67th Ljubljana Festival, which gets under way with Aida, one of the best known and most frequently performed operas not only of Verdi's oeuvre, but in the entire history of opera. Director Dražen Siriščević’s imaginative staging will make the most of the outdoor setting and the opera will include an appearance by thoroughbred Lipizzaner horses from the stud farm in Lipica. The events of the Ljubljana Festival take place throughout the summer and Slovenia’s capital will continue to welcome some of the biggest names in music – performers of worldwide renown – right up until September.

  • 2003026 ESM Commencement.Indd
    Eastman School of Music 79th Commencement Sunday, May 16, 2004, 11:15 a.m. Eastman School of Music 79th Commencement Sunday, May 16, 2004, 11:15 a.m. THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC ndustrialist and philanthropist George Eastman, founder of Eastman Kodak Company, established the Eastman School of Music Iin 1921 as the first professional school of the University of Rochester. Through the efforts of Eastman, Howard Hanson (Eastman Director from 1924–1964), and University President Rush Rhees, the Eastman School became an innovator in American music education. The original vision of a music school dedicated to the highest levels of artistry and scholar- ship, to the broad education of young musicians within the context of a university, to the musical enrichment and education of the greater com- munity, and to the promotion of American music and musicians, is still alive and vital through the Eastman School’s numerous creative endeav- ors. In 1921, George Eastman articulated his belief in the importance of music education in America: “The life of our communities in the future needs what our schools of music and of other fine arts can give them. It is necessary for people to have an interest in life outside their occupations … I am interested in music personally, and I am led thereby to want to share my pleasure with others. It is impossible to buy an appreciation of music. Yet, without appreciation, without the presence of a large body of people who under- stand music and who get enjoyment out of it, any attempt to develop the musical resources of any city is doomed to failure.
