  • A Healing Return to the Stage for the Canton Symphony Orchestra by Tom Wachunas
    A Healing Return to the Stage for the Canton Symphony Orchestra by Tom Wachunas Reasons to be cheerful: they’re back! The May 23 concert by the Canton Symphony Orchestra marked the first time in more than a year that the ensemble has performed live at Umstattd Performing Arts Hall. This occasion was certainly an important step on the road back to cultural “normalcy” as we recover from the dreadful pandemic shutdown. For a May 21 article by Ed Balint in The Repository (Canton’s daily newspaper), CSO president and CEO Michelle Charles said of the concert, “That’s what we do, that’s what we love and that’s why we exist, to perform music live. You do take for granted how readily available (classical music) is until it’s not. So I think it’s going to be very emotional.” Noting the special significance of the concert to Gerhardt Zimmermann, CSO music director and conductor since 1980, she added, “It’s been so long, and Canton has held a special place in his heart for many, many years. I think it’s going to be more emotional for him than anyone.” The emotional factor becomes even more resonant when considering Zimmermann’s own battle with coronavirus which led to weeks of hospitalization and rehabilitation in 2020. He’s still not at optimal strength, and consequently conducted the program while seated on a raised platform. This short concert (with no intermission) was an altogether unique sensory experience, and not a CSO business-as-usual affair. Zimmermann chose just two works to be on the program: Mendelssohn’s String Octet, and Mozart’s Symphony No.

ARNOLD SCHOENBERG (1874-1951) Verklarte Nacht (Transfigured Night) Most people associate Arnold Schoenberg with development of the "twelve-tone" sys­ tem of musical composition. However, one of his most popular works, Verklarte Nacht, was composed early in his career (1899) at the age of twenty-five, before his experiments in atonality were evident. Though primarily a self-taught composer, Schoenberg admits to having been greatly influenced by Brahms and Wagner during this period. Verklarte Nacht was unusual in that it was a tone poem composed for a chamber ensemble (string sextet). It was based on a poem written in 1896 by Richard Dehmel, whose work Schoenberg particularly admired.

  • Birth of the Cool
    Mateusz Smoczynski, Violin David Balakrishnan, Violin, Baritone Violin Benjamin von Gutzeit, Viola Mark Summer, Cello Birth of the Cool Reaching for lyricism and gentler textures as a reaction to the fiery sounds of bebop, the renowned musicians who performed on the seminal recording, Birth of the Cool, consider it a tipping point towards the style that became known as “Cool Jazz.” The living embodiment of cool, Miles Davis, and his colleagues, Gil Evans, Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz, etc., set the table for a slew of legendary groups that shared their vision. From the Modern Jazz Quartet and Gunther Schuller of third stream music, to the west coast sounds of the Dave Brubeck Quartet with Paul Desmond, to the iconoclastic melodic lines of pianist Lennie Tristano, their particular brand of innovative genius echoed into the myriad jazz fusion blends of the seventies and eighties. Ultimately, this created the perfect conditions for an audacious group of four string players equally grounded in jazz improvisation and classical technique, to split the Eurocentric string quartet atom. In addition to employing their signature groove-based rhythmic techniques to transform classic selections from the recording of Birth of the Cool such as Israel, Venus De Milo, and Jeru into jazz string quartet masterpieces, the two time GRAMMY® winning Turtle Island Quartet will take a wide swath through the many other avenues traversed by these intrepid explorers of cool. Perennial favorites such as Dave Brubeck’s Blue Rondo A La Turk and Gerry Mulligan’s Bernie’s Tune conjoin with Miles Davis’s dreamy Miles Ahead, and the Modern Jazz Quartet’s darker Django.

Furth, Ph.D. Do not reproduce without permission. [email protected] “Fanfares and Dances” Music can be martial, celebratory, amorous, or contemplative – a force moving us to march, dance, love, or reflect. Tonight’s Chapel Hill Philharmonia program spans this wide range. A common thread is rhythm. From the drum beats that open Aaron Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man to the propulsive finale of Ludwig van Beethoven’sSeventh Symphony, this is music in which we feel strongly the grouping of stresses in regular intervals, or measures. Rhythm serves as an organizing principle that governs our immediate perception of musical time. Paradoxically, music also can evoke an almost indefinite sweep of time, capturing the expanse from the dawn of mankind to the unknown future. This sense may be triggered by the sounds that for uncounted eons have heralded great events, the arrival of a leader, or the beginning of battle – a rhythmic pulse coupled with the blare of massed instruments – the essence of a fanfare.

The instrument, its technique and its repertory 1. Introduction. The violin is one of the most perfect instruments acoustically and has extraordinary musical versatility. In beauty and emotional appeal its tone rivals that of its model, the human voice, but at the same time the violin is capable of particular agility and brilliant figuration, making possible in one instrument the expression of moods and effects that may range, depending on the will and skill of the player, from the lyric and tender to the brilliant and dramatic. Its capacity for sustained tone is remarkable, and scarcely another instrument can produce so many nuances of expression and intensity. The violin can play all the chromatic semitones or even microtones over a four-octave range, and, to a limited extent, the playing of chords is within its powers. In short, the violin represents one of the greatest triumphs of instrument making. From its earliest development in Italy the violin was adopted in all kinds of music and by all strata of society, and has since been disseminated to many cultures across the globe (see §II below). Composers, inspired by its potential, have written extensively for it as a solo instrument, accompanied and unaccompanied, and also in connection with the genres of orchestral and chamber music. Possibly no other instrument can boast a larger and musically more distinguished repertory, if one takes into account all forms of solo and ensemble music in which the violin has been assigned a part.
