A talented composer and singer, he exposed the Czech composer to American spirituals and was in turn encouraged by Dvorákˇ to perform his native African American folk music.

Dynamics of Disintegration: The Later Han Empire (25-220CE) & Its Northwestern Frontier Abstract As a frontier region of the Qin-Han (221BCE-220CE) empire, the northwest was a new territory to the Chinese realm. Until the Later Han (25-220CE) times, some portions of the northwestern region had only been part of imperial soil for one hundred years. Its coalescence into the Chinese empire was a product of long-term expansion and conquest, which arguably defined the egionr 's military nature. Furthermore, in the harsh natural environment of the region, only tough people could survive, and unsurprisingly, the region fostered vigorous warriors. Mixed culture and multi-ethnicity featured prominently in this highly militarized frontier society, which contrasted sharply with the imperial center that promoted unified cultural values and stood in the way of a greater degree of transregional integration. As this project shows, it was the northwesterners who went through a process of political peripheralization during the Later Han times played a harbinger role of the disintegration of the empire and eventually led to the breakdown of the early imperial system in Chinese history.

  • Outpouring of Chamber Music in Seoul
    Outpouring of chamber music in Seoul (The Emerson String Quartet, with pianist Wu Han, center, give an impassioned performance of a piano quintet by Dvorak at the IBK Chamber Hall, the latest addition to the Seoul Arts Center, Monday.) World’s top ensembles perform at new IBK Chamber Hall By Do Je-Hae A three-day chamber music festival featuring some of the world’s top musicians in the field wrapped up Tuesday, concluding the “IBK Chamber Hall Opening Festival” that started in October. The new IBK Chamber Hall at Seoul Arts Center is generating excitement for fans and artists who have longed for the ultimate live chamber music experience in the nation’s capital. It is also playing a vital role in Korea’s burgeoning chamber music scene. The 600-seat IBK Chamber Hall had a full house during the rare opportunity to hear the Emerson String Quartet and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center(CMS) live consecutively in one week. The two groups as part of “Chamber Music Today” presented an extraordinary broad repertoire, ranging from Schubert’s gorgeous B-flat major piano trio to the evocative string quartet by French composer Maurice Ravel. The inaugural concert of “Chamber Music Today,” founded by cellist David Finckel and pianist Wu Han, began Sunday with a program of quartets by Mozart, Beethoven and Dvorak. “Chamber music is unlike any artistic medium - both powerful and personal, it has inspired countless composers to create some of their finest work,” Finckel said in a statement. “‘Chamber Music Today’ brings the greatest chamber music repertoire and performers to Korea.

David Schiff) David Shifrin, clarinet • Gloria Chien, piano NOTES ON THE PROGRAM Quintet in A major for Clarinet, Two Violins, Viola, and Cello, K. 581 (1789) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Salzburg, 1756 – Vienna, 1791) Mozart wrote this quintet for Vienna’s Society of Musicians (Tonkünstler-Societät) in 1789. The society raised money to provide pensions to widows and orphans of Viennese musicians. Its concerts were regular occurrences on the Viennese social calendar and Mozart composed and performed for them, even though he was not a member, something he would regret right before his death at the age of 35. This quintet premiered at a society concert on December 22, 1789, in between two halves of a cantata by Vincenzo Righini. The clarinetist was Anton Stadler, one of the first virtuosos on the instrument and Mozart’s close personal friend. Mozart wrote all of his major clarinet works— this one, the Kegelstatt Trio, and the Clarinet Concerto—with Stadler’s playing in mind. Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center The clarinet was a relatively new instrument in Mozart’s day yet he expertly tapped into the instrument’s unique singing quality.
