The Ethics of Orchestral Conducting
Theory of Conducting – Chapter 1 The Ethics of Orchestral Conducting In a changing culture and a society that adopts and discards values (or anti-values) with a speed similar to that of fashion as related to dressing or speech, each profession must find out the roots and principles that provide an unchanging point of reference, those principles to which we are obliged to go back again and again in order to maintain an adequate direction and, by carrying them out, allow oneself to be fulfilled. Orchestral Conducting is not an exception. For that reason, some ideas arise once and again all along this work. Since their immutability guarantees their continuance. It is known that Music, as an art of performance, causally interlinks three persons: first and closely interlocked: the composer and the performer; then, eventually, the listener. The composer and his piece of work require the performer and make him come into existence. When the performer plays the piece, that is to say when he makes it real, perceptive existence is granted and offers it to the comprehension and even gives the listener the possibility of enjoying it. The composer needs the performer so that, by executing the piece, his work means something for the listener. Therefore, the performer has no self-existence but he is performer due to the previous existence of the piece and the composer, to whom he owes to be a performer. There exist a communication process between the composer and the performer that, as all those processes involves a sender, a message and a receiver. -

Bluewater Chamber Orchestra to Go Conductorless at the Breen by Mike Telin
BlueWater Chamber Orchestra to go conductorless at the Breen by Mike Telin “When a composer writes a piece of music, they don’t really picture someone with a stick telling the musicians what to do,” BlueWater Chamber Orchestra concertmaster Ken Johnston said during a recent telephone conversation. On Saturday, February 18 at 7:30 at the Breen Center for the Performing Arts, Johnston and his BlueWater colleagues will go conductorless when they perform works by Aaron Copland, Richard Wagner, and Benjamin Britten. Johnston said that as concertmaster, he is always leading and communicating with the players. “I don’t think this is going to be a huge stretch from what I’m used to doing. And with a group this good, the leadership is going to be shared.” Composed for choreographer and dancer Martha Graham and premiered in 1944, Copland’s ballet Appalachian Spring was originally scored for a chamber ensemble of double string quartet plus bass, flute, clarinet, bassoon, and piano. The composer revised the work for full orchestra in 1954. BlueWater will perform the thirteen-player version on Saturday. Johnston, who has played the chamber version, said that he’s enjoyed the opportunity to reexamine the score. “There are so many little textures that are missing in the symphonic version. It’s not that Copland meant to dilute anything with that version — it is big and lush and we all love it — but the chamber version is a lot more intricate.” Johnston admits that there will be some negotiating to be done among the players, especially when it comes to the tempo of the square dance. -
