  • Ojai Festival
    American Record Guide September / October 2006 Richard S Ginell usic Director Robert Spano’s and Artistic Director Thomas Morris’s main idea for the 2006 Ojai Festival. music of Osvaldo Golijov, planted itself right in the middle of Mwhat’s hip and happening in contemporary and world music. Indeed, in two of the five programs that I caught, and most of a third, the performers were basically playing their latest recordings. An Ayre-Berio concert came out on a single Deutsche Grammophon CD last fall. Ainadamar was released by DG a month before the festival. and the Atlanta Symphony Chamber Chorus’s program was taken intact from its latest Telarc disc – all for sale, of course. on the festival grounds. This is a tactic long used in the pop music world, and one wonders why it took so long to catch on in the classical arena. Lest you think that Ojai is capitulating to commercial concerns, this California town (population 8,200) still tries its best to defy the big, bad outside world. Though land values and motel room rates continue to skyrocket. the town remains defiantly free of fast-food franchises and other chains. Bart’s Books, a unique, lovable, mostly outdoor treasure chest of literature, still thrives on the corner of Canada and Matilija Streets. There are more loudspeakers than ever in the oak-and-sycamore shaded village park where the concerts take place, yet the sound is usually very good, accompanied by endearing non-amplified obbligatos from resident birds and crickets. And take note, iconoclasts: the Mozart Madness that swamped the festival world in his 250th year was nowhere to be found in Ojai, nor was there any Shostakovich centennial business within earshot.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My document committee consists of Dr. William K. Wakefield, Dr. Roland Barrett, Dr. Michael Raiber, Dr. Paula Conlon, and Dr. Teresa DeBacker, and I thank each of them for their careful reading and great assistance in the execution of this document. I feel very fortunate to have had the members who served on this committee, and hold them each in high regard. Special thanks are especially due to Dr. Wakefield, chair of my committee; he tirelessly helped me clarify ideas, find new ways to experience the piece, and express my thoughts more cogently. Without his unremitting support, this document would not exist. To my parents, Ron and Mary Ann Manna, I owe any success I have ever achieved to you both. The never-ending support you have afforded me is why I have accomplished what I have. I love you both and thank you. To my in-laws, Harry and Cheryl Craig, I sincerely appreciate the endless love and support you have given to me for the last fifteen years.
