Britten and his stage director, Eric Crozier, traveled from England to oversee the production. Leonard Bernstein conducted the orchestra of the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) and the vocalists were chosen from members of the Music Center's opera department. In recognition of that event's fiftieth anniversary—being cele- brated here this summer by Tanglewood Music Center per- formances of Peter Grimes under Seiji Ozawa's direction—the Boston Symphony Archives, with the assistance of the Historical Preservation Com- mittee of the BSAV at Tanglewood, has mounted an exhibit including reproductions of rehearsal and production photographs as well as correspondence and newspaper clippings about the production. The exhibit is free of charge and located in the Tanglewood Visitor Center on the first floor of the Tanglewood Manor House at the rear of the lawn across from the Koussevitzky Music Shed. The photograph is of Benjamin Britten and Serge Koussevitzky at Tanglewood in 1946. Administration Kenneth Haas, Managing Director Daniel R.

Harry T. Burleigh was a star student of Dvorákˇ at the National Conservatory in New York. 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. Two generations later, Copland and Bernstein conceived a clean, clear American sound that conveys the wonder and awe of open spaces and endless possibilities.

We are happy to once again Be sharing music By some our greatest composers with our enthusiastic audiences in the Vail Valley. We enjoy our collaBoration with the amicaBle and witty Bramwell Tovey, and judging from past audience reactions, so do our fans in Vail. The first program on July 24th showcases the pianist Jon Kimura Parker playing Edvard Grieg's classic Piano Concerto in A minor. This concert will also showcase the suBliminal overture to Fingal's Cave By Felix Mendelssohn and Edward Elgar's Enigma Variations. Maestro Tovey's second program on July 26th features Bravo!

Figaro is the Valet to the Count and Susanna the maid and confidante of the Countess. The Count is a philanderer and has his eyes on Susanna. Prior to the opera he abolished the law of 'droit de seigneur', the right of the lord of the manorto take the virginity of a bride before the wedding, but with Susanna, about to get married, he plans to re-establish this law. This provides the emotional foundation for all the characters in the opera, leaving Figaro angry, Susanna confused and the Countess bereft, relying on her page, Cherubino to cheer her up. They are reduced to hatching a plot to obstruct the Count's plans and to humiliate him. Z 1.

  • Keith Jarrett's Spiritual Beliefs Through a Gurdjieffian Lens
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Sydney: Sydney eScholarship Journals... Channelling the Creative: Keith Jarrett’s Spiritual Beliefs Through a Gurdjieffian Lens Johanna Petsche Introduction The elusive nature of the creative process in art has remained a puzzling phenomenon for artists and their audiences. What happens to an inspired artist in the moment of creation and where that inspiration comes from are questions that prompt many artists to explain the process as spiritual or mystical, describing their experiences as ‘channelling the divine’, ‘tapping into a greater reality’, or being visited or played by their ‘muse’. Pianist and improviser Keith Jarrett (b.1945) frequently explains the creative process in this way and this is nowhere more evident than in discussions on his wholly improvised solo concerts. Jarrett explains these massive feats of creativity in terms of an ability to ‘channel’ or ‘surrender to’ a source of inspiration, which he ambiguously designates the ‘ongoing harmony’, the ‘Creative’, and the ‘Divine Will’. These accounts are freely expressed in interviews and album liner notes, and are thus highly accessible to his audiences. Jarrett’s mystical accounts of the creative process, his incredible improvisatory abilities, and other key elements come together to create the strange aura of mystery that surrounds his notorious solo concerts. This paper will demystify Jarrett’s spiritual beliefs on the creative process by considering them within a Gurdjieffian context. This will allow for a much deeper understanding of Jarrett’s cryptic statements on creativity, and his idiosyncratic behaviour during the solo concerts.
