Christmas at St. Olaf 2010 Hail the Heav’N Born Prince of Peace Christmas at St. Olaf 2010 Hail the heav’n born Prince of Peace. The loneliness of a Prince of Peace Must be profound. It is a rose in winter, A melody in a silent night, An infant cradled with the animals, Out of sight and out of mind In this world’s restless throb. Where, in the shards of a broken world, Is any Prince of Peace’s realm? Where the waiting kingdom? Where the citizens of peace? It must seem to such a prince A cruel and bitter joke: The land of peace so uninhabited Though all are called to make it home. Humanity can lose its way -- Like some poor planet gone awry Spinning backwards into its own darkness, Not forward toward the sun. Where there is no peace, how can one be Prince of Peace? Only by creating it, by making it anew. And can it be? Will God speak yet again and say “Let there be peace?” Yes, yes, yes. Here is the word made flesh! Child Emmanuel comes among us like a sun, Not cursing those who walk in darkness, But bringing them great light; Not demanding that we learn unaided how to sing But bringing us a song; Not scorning our burned-over, unused soil, But planting, tending, nurturing seeds, ’Till his own peace takes root in us, And roses everywhere take bloom. Born to raise each child of earth Born to give us second birth. the 99th annual St. Olaf Christmas Festival St. Olaf College · Northfield, Minnesota or many people over the years, the celebration of the Advent-Christmas- Epiphany season has begun with the annual St. Olaf Christmas Festival, a cherished tradition of the college for nearly a century. The first festival in 1912 was a musical program for the college community, planned and directed by F. Melius Christiansen, founder of the St. Olaf Music Department. The festival continues as an outgrowth of Christian conviction and an expression of the rich musical heritage at St. Olaf, a college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Tonight the St. Olaf Choir, the St. Olaf Orchestra, the St. Olaf Cantorei, the St. Olaf Chapel Choir, the Manitou Singers, and the Viking Chorus will perform both as individual groups and as a massed ensemble. Please hold your applause until the end, and refrain from using cameras and video or audio recorders. Please turn off all pagers and cellular phones. The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light Messiah, Prince of Peace Daniel Kallman Reading John 1:1–5, 14a Lo, How a Rose Michael Praetorius arr. Robert Scholz Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming This night a wondrous revelation From tender stem hath sprung! A great and mighty wonder, Of Jesse’s lineage coming Makes known to me God’s love and grace; As prophets long have sung. A full and holy cure, It came, a flow’ret bright, The Child that merits adoration Amid the cold of winter, The Virgin bears the Infant, When half-spent was the night. Brings light to our benighted race. The Word Incarnate sure. Isaiah twas foretold it, The Rose I have in mind; With Mary we behold it, The Virgin Mother kind. To show God’s love aright, Born for us She bore for all a Savior, When half-spent was the night. — C.F. Nachtenhöfer, St. Germanus, Given to us 15th Century German Carol Narration Pastor W. Bruce Benson Speak a Word to Us, Isaiah arr. John Ferguson — John Thornburg His rule is peace and freedom And justice, truth, and love Isaiah’s Voice Born to raise John Ferguson A word of comfort echoes; It is Isaiah’s voice each child of earth Speaking the balm of pardon And God’s forgiving choice. The valley lifted up; Uneven ground made level; Glory revealed. Rejoice! Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying God’s word will come to pass. Philipp Nicolai Fleeting is human nature, arr. F. Melius Christiansen Like withered, fading grass. Ageless the holy promise: Wake, awake, for night is flying! God’s word will come to pass. The watchmen on the heights are crying, Awake, Jerusalem, arise! And with a shepherd’s arms, Midnight’s solemn hour is tolling, God gathers and sustains us His chariot wheels are nearer rolling; Close to his heart so vast. He comes; prepare, ye virgins wise. Rise up with willing feet. Nestled in fields of amber, Go forth, the Bridegroom meet, When winter’s zephyr blows, Hallelujah! There is a bloom so vivid Bear through the night your well-trimmed light, Within the grass a rose. Speed forth to join the marriage rite. — John Thornburg Isaiah’s Voice Hear Thy praise, O Lord, ascending Words by John Thornburg From earth and heavenly voices, blending Copyright © MorningStar Music Publishers With harps and lute and psaltery.

  • A Study of Tyzen Hsiao's Piano Concerto, Op. 53
    A Study of Tyzen Hsiao’s Piano Concerto, Op. 53: A Comparison with Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 D.M.A Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lin-Min Chang, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2018 D.M.A. Document Committee: Professor Steven Glaser, Advisor Dr. Anna Gowboy Dr. Kia-Hui Tan Copyright by Lin-Min Chang 2018 2 ABSTRACT One of the most prominent Taiwanese composers, Tyzen Hsiao, is known as the “Sergei Rachmaninoff of Taiwan.” The primary purpose of this document is to compare and discuss his Piano Concerto Op. 53, from a performer’s perspective, with the Second Piano Concerto of Sergei Rachmaninoff. Hsiao’s preferences of musical materials such as harmony, texture, and rhythmic patterns are influenced by Romantic, Impressionist, and 20th century musicians incorporating these elements together with Taiwanese folk song into a unique musical style. This document consists of four chapters. The first chapter introduces Hsiao’s biography and his musical style; the second chapter focuses on analyzing Hsiao’s Piano Concerto Op. 53 in C minor from a performer’s perspective; the third chapter is a comparison of Hsiao and Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concertos regarding the similarities of orchestration and structure, rhythm and technique, phrasing and articulation, harmony and texture. The chapter also covers the differences in the function of the cadenza, and the interaction between solo piano and orchestra; and the final chapter provides some performance suggestions to the practical issues in regard to phrasing, voicing, technique, color, pedaling, and articulation of Hsiao’s Piano Concerto from the perspective of a pianist.

  • Annotated Bibliography of Sources on the History of Piano Pedagogy Compiled by Members of the NCKP Historical Perspectives Committee
    Annotated Bibliography of Sources on the History of Piano Pedagogy Compiled by Members of the NCKP Historical Perspectives Committee Connie Arrau Sturm (CAS) – Committee Chairman Debra Brubaker Burns (DBB) Anita Jackson (AJ) General historical surveys Boardman, Roger Crager. “A History of Theories of Teaching Piano Technic.” Ph.D. diss., New York University, 1954. Boardman investigated how theories of teaching piano technique changed from 1753 to 1953. He classified the theories into three categories - finger technique, use of the arm, and weight/relaxation. Within each category of theories, he not only analyzed how the body was used and how it interacted with the instrument, but also discussed how these techniques were taught. Boardman’s comparisons among theories helped pinpoint when important changes occurred, revealing the special contributions of each pedagogue. Boardman concluded that concepts of piano technique evolved from use of fingers only, to the coordination of the entire body (highlighting the importance of the brain). He also noted the strong influence of environmental factors (e.g., changes in the instrument, changes in the repertoire, and inspiration of great performers of the day) on the development of theories of teaching piano technique.

James Parakilas, 133-179. New Haven, Connecticut: Yale University Press, 1999. This chapter chronicled how teaching piano and studying piano have changed over the centuries. The authors described the evolution of piano study from eighteenth-century daily lessons, where students practiced in the presence of the piano teacher, to nineteenth-century weekly lessons that required long hours of daily practice in between.
