It was one of a handful organ of pivotal moments in my life Maxine Eilander so far when I felt that I was harp not really in control of my own Tekla Cunningham & Linda Melsted destiny.

Christopher Jackson was the conductor of the Studio de Musique Ancienne de Montréal on that occasion Moriah Neils and I remember the joy, fascination and pure enthusiasm he bass managed to communicate to everyone involved. I was totally Bruce Dickey & Kiri Tollaksen hooked and felt so compelled and intrigued with how this cornettos work made me feel, that 25 years later, I am still spending Greg Ingles, Erik Schmalz and Mack Ramsey my time convincing anybody who will listen, that there is no sackbuts music that will make them feel luckier to be alive.

Han Chen / Piano
HAN CHEN / PIANO Hailed by the New York Times as a pianist with "a graceful touch... rhythmic precision... hypnotic charm” and "sure, subtle touch," Han Chen is a distinctive artist whose credentials at a young age already include important prizes in competitions of traditional music as well as increasing respect in the avant- garde. Mr. Chen’s debut CD with Naxos Records, which consists of all-Liszt operatic transcriptions, was released in January 2016 as the first prize winner of the 6th China International Piano Competition. Gramophone complimented Mr. Chen’s “brilliant performance” in the CD as “impressively commanding and authoritative.” The website Classics Today also praised for his “assured, elegant and totally effortless technique” by scoring 10 out of 10 in both artistic quality and sound quality. International Piano magazine (UK) described Mr. Chen’s performance in the competition as “[Chen] displayed extraordinary strength, talent and flair.” His performances in the 15th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, the 15th Arthur Rubinstein Piano Competition and the 2018 Honens International Piano Competition were also highly acclaimed. As a soloist, Mr. Chen has appeared with many orchestras, including the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra (under Maestro Vladimir Ashkenazy), Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, China Symphony Orchestra, Macao Orchestra, Juilliard Orchestra, National Taiwan Symphony Orchestra, Xiamen National Orchestra, Lexington Philharmonic Orchestra, Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra, Aspen Music Festival Brass Ensemble and Shanghai Conservatory Middle School Orchestra. Being an advocate for modern music, Mr. Chen actively performs music from the 20th and the 21st century. As a member of the New York-based contemporary music group Ensemble Échappé, he worked with composers such as Tonia Ko, Kevin Puts, Sean Shepherd and Nina Young. -
Orchestra Bells As a Chamber and Solo Instrument: a Survey Of

Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2016 APPROVED: Mark Ford, Major Professor Joseph Klein, Relative Field Professor David Bard-Schwarz, Committee Member Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies and Dean of the College of Music Douglass, Mark Samuel. Orchestra Bells as a Chamber and Solo Instrument: A Survey of Works by Steve Reich, Morton Feldman, Franco Donatoni, Robert Morris, Marta Ptaszyńska, Will Ogdon, Stuart Saunders Smith, Lafayette Gilchrist and Roscoe Mitchell. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2016, 96 pp., 73 musical examples, 11 figures, references, 59 titles. This dissertation considers the use of orchestra bells as a solo instrument. I use three examples taken from chamber literature (Drumming by Steve Reich, Why Patterns? by Morton Feldman, and Ave by Franco Donatoni) to demonstrate uses of the instrument in an ensemble setting. I use six solo, unaccompanied orchestra bell pieces (Twelve Bell Canons by Robert Morris, Katarynka by Marta Ptaszyńska, Over by Stuart Saunders Smith, A Little Suite and an Encore Tango by Will Ogdon, Breaks Through by Lafayette Gilchrist, and Bells for New Orleans by Roscoe Mitchell) to illustrate the instrument’s expressive, communicative ability. In the discussion of each piece, I include brief background information, the composer’s m usical language in the piece and performance considerations. I interviewed composers of these solo works to complete the research for this document to discuss their musical language and their thoughts on writing for solo orchestra bells. -

Soundzz.Z.Zzz...Z – Call for Artists Competition for an Artwork at the Intersection of Music and the Visual Arts
Soundzz.z.zzz...z – Call for Artists Competition for an Artwork at the Intersection of Music and the Visual Arts 1. Competition For years LUCERNE FESTIVAL and Kunstmuseum Luzern have pursued various formats of partnering to- gether. Both institutions are interested in the connections and varied relationships that exist between the visual arts and music, between visual expression and sound. In 2015, LUCERNE FESTIVAL and Kunstmuse- um Luzern will inaugurate for the third time a project promoting the intersection and interface between both cultural areas, specifically by means of a competition. During the Summer Festival the potential of interdisciplinary projects will be displayed at Kunstmuseum Luzern to musical and visual arts audiences alike. Both institutions are very eager to explore new, unconventional projects that are full of promise and that are equally at home in the domain of the visual arts and of music and that moreover stand out in terms of quality. The competition is directed to young emerging artists (single artists, teams of two or three artists) to develop a project exploring the theme of «Humor» at the intersection of music and the visual arts. The project in question should be ephemeral, performative, actionistic. The project that is selected by a jury will be executed during the course of LUCERNE FESTIVAL in Summer (14 August – 13 September 2015) on the premises of Kunstmuseum Luzern. The project we are looking for should be neither an exhibition nor a concert. The form this project will take is open-ended: it can involve an intervention, an action, a perfor- mance, an event or happening in the sense of a performance, a concept to be developed during the course of the Festival, a series of performances, or another type of event. -
