  • Thesis October 11,2012
    Demystifying Galina Ustvolskaya: Critical Examination and Performance Interpretation. Elena Nalimova 10 October 2012 Submitted in partial requirement for the Degree of PhD in Performance Practice at the Goldsmiths College, University of London 1 Declaration The work presented in this thesis is my own and has not been presented for any other degree. Where the work of others has been utilised this has been indicated and the sources acknowledged. All the translations from Russian are my own, unless indicated otherwise. Elena Nalimova 10 October 2012 2 Note on transliteration and translation The transliteration used in the thesis and bibliography follow the Library of Congress system with a few exceptions such as: endings й, ий, ый are simplified to y; я and ю transliterated as ya/yu; е is е and ё is e; soft sign is '. All quotations from the interviews and Russian publications were translated by the author of the thesis. 3 Abstract This thesis presents a performer’s view of Galina Ustvolskaya and her music with the aim of demystifying her artistic persona. The author examines the creation of ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ by critically analysing Soviet, Russian and Western literature sources, oral history on the subject and the composer’s personal recollections, and reveals paradoxes and parochial misunderstandings of Ustvolskaya’s personality and the origins of her music. Having examined all the available sources, the author argues that the ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ was a self-made phenomenon that persisted due to insufficient knowledge on the subject. In support of the argument, the thesis offers a performer’s interpretation of Ustvolskaya as she is revealed in her music.

  • Stockhausen Concerts and Classes for Clarinettists and Others. Clarinettists Have Reason to Be Very Happy with the Development
    Stockhausen concerts and classes for clarinettists and others. Clarinettists have reason to be very happy with the development of their repertoire in de 20th century, as it had a previously unseen growth. One of the main figures of post war new music has been Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928-2007). This often controversial composer has enriched clarinet literature with an unprecedented number of works for clarinet, bassethorn and bass clarinet, especially after 1974. These sometimes demanding pieces, often with theatrical elements, require a specific approach and way of playing, easily underestimated. Stockhausen was well aware of this and started coaching a new generation of players in the 1980’s, in order to pass this tradition of interpretation on to others. In spite of Stockhausen’s compositions having the reputation of being difficult and intellectual (if not quasi-religious), to play, watch and listen to them is generally great fun, and very satisfying to work on - if done well. Because the music calls on many apects of performing (e.g. fysical and mental attitude on stage, memory, presentation, awareness of the structure of the music, disciplin) the leaning process has a beneficial influence on performing traditional music too. This series of concerts and courses offers the possibility to watch, listen, study and rehearse a number of Stockhausen’s works with Michel Marang, a clarinettist who worked with the composer since 1986 and performed his music hundreds of times worldwide. The course can have the character of an introductory lecture and concert, but eventually may result in seminars over a longer stretch of time, as much as needed to bring specific works on concert level.

  • 1000 Voices for Peace in a Nutshell
    Peace is about much more than ending war Flanders Festival Brussels commemorates the Great War 1 2 1,000 Voices for Peace in a nutshell On 9 November 2014, Flanders Festival Brussels will be joined by over 1000 singers and the Brussels Philharmonic to commemorate the Great War. Singers and choirs from countries involved in the conflict at the time will be making an inspiring statement for peace. Art, and especially music and song, is what binds our world together! The great Polish composer, Krzysztof Penderecki, also subscribes to the urgency of our statement for peace. He has created an oratorio for peace that will be performed for the first time on 9 November. Since his world-famous 1961 Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima, the fortunes of the world have become an inseparable part of his work. 1000 Voices for Peace also gives choirs from Belgium and the world an opportunity to fraternise with each other. Between November 3 and 9, we and many Belgian choirs will be welcoming fifteen choirs from all around the globe. With 15 fraternising concerts in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia on November 5, 6 & 7, each choir will give colour and its best to the 1000 Voices for Peace narrative. Herman van Rompuy, president of the European Council, is patron of the project. Herman Van Rompuy has been the head of Europe for two whole mandates. A mission which is just right for him. The 31rst of December 2014 his mandate ends, but not his personal quest. The President is convinced that culture plays an important role for being a bridge between countries and nations.

  • A TRIBUTE in LOVING MEMORY Irina Diana Tarabac
    A TRIBUTE IN LOVING MEMORY Irina Diana Tarabac (1970-2007) Irina Diana Tarabac dedicated her life to learning, teaching, and science – the field of her choice being linguistics. Among many brilliant scholars and scientists in the Linguistics Department at Stony Brook University, Irina stood out for many a reasons. Unfortunately, Irina left us too early in October 2007. After arriving to study at Stony Brook at 2002, Irina became an active member of the linguistic community in the metropolitan area of New York. She frequently attended seminars in the Linguistics Departments of NYU and the CUNY Graduate Center. Irina was dedicated to life-long learning, and she set extremely high standards for herself, her own research and her teaching responsibilities. She taught a morphology seminar in Bucharest and served as a TA for classes on many different topics at Stony Brook, including syntax, morphology, language philosophy, phonology, typology, and Semitic languages. She was a wonderful teacher and was very concerned about her students. Her dedication to linguistics didn’t leave her much time to pursue her hobbies, but whenever Irina found some time off, she enjoyed listening to symphonic music, reading good literature, visiting museums, and spending time with her friends. Irina earned a Master’s degree in Bucharest, Romania in 1996 and had studied and conducted research in the Netherlands between 1997 and 1999. Irina conducted research on well-known languages such as Dutch, Romanian, and Modern Greek as well as less-known languages such as Rapanui and Burushaki. Irina’s passing is a great loss to her family, her friends and the field of linguistics.
