  • AN ANALYSIS of “SEVEN LAST WORDS from the CROSS” (1993) by JAMES MACMILLAN by HERNHO PARK DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial
    AN ANALYSIS OF “SEVEN LAST WORDS FROM THE CROSS” (1993) BY JAMES MACMILLAN BY HERNHO PARK DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Choral Music in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Barrington Coleman, Chair Professor Carlos Carrillo, Director of Research Professor Michael Silvers Professor Fred Stoltzfus ABSTRACT James MacMillan is one of the most well-known and successful living composers as well as an internationally active conductor. His musical language is influenced by his Scottish heritage, the Catholic faith, and traditional Celtic folk music, blended with Scandinavian and European composers including Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992), Alfred Schnittke (1943-1998), and Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971). His cantata for choir and strings Seven Last Words from the Cross, was commissioned by BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) television, composed in 1993, and premiered in 1994 by Cappella Nova and the BT (British Telecom) Scottish Ensemble. While this piece is widely admired as one of his best achievements by choral conductors and choirs, it is rarely performed, perhaps due to its high level of difficulty for both the string players and singers. The purpose of this dissertation is to present an analysis of the Seven Last Words from the Cross by James MacMillan aimed to benefit choral conductors rather than audiences. Very little has been written about MacMillan's choral works. My hope is to establish a foundation on which future scholars may expand and explore other choral works by MacMillan.

Program Notes Concerto for Bassoon GORDON JACOB (1895-1984) This reduction of Gordon Jacob’s Concerto for Bassoon, Strings and Percussion consists of three movements in which Jacob takes full advantage of the bassoon’s potential for comedy, while also exploring its more lyrical side. The cheerful first movement begins with a scale that is progressively taken apart and put back to- gether. A middle interlude creates a slightly heavier mood while the soloist takes up a more melancholy theme. But, after a period of quickening, the cheerful opening theme returns. In the second movement, the piano provides an ethereal accompa- niment of a gentle, plaintive melody played by the bassoon. The third movement is an exciting presentation of the bassoon's technical abilities. A slower middle section again displays Jacob’s more emotional side.

  • Ewert Dmus Essay Final
    Liturgy as Mediation in James MacMillan’s Búsqueda and Cantos Sagrados by Benjamin Charles Ewert A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Music Department of Music University of Alberta © Benjamin Charles Ewert, 2020 Abstract In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Scottish composer James MacMillan wrote a series of pieces using the poetic texts of persecuted peoples in Latin America and liturgical and other sacred texts of the Christian faith. Though Búsqueda and Cantos Sagrados were composed in two distinct genres, MacMillan built a framework of response to political repression in both by using liturgy and sacred texts as the scaffolding. These early compositions mark the commencement of an important period for MacMillan. During this time, he establishes himself as a modernist drawing on the traditional roots of his Catholic faith and cultural roots of his Scottish heritage. MacMillan amplifies the plight of persecuted peoples using sacred themes juxtaposed against secular events and texts. His symbiotic approach would eventually lead to his recognition as an internationally established composer with The Confession of Isobel Gowdie, Veni, veni Immanuel, and Seven Last Words. The manner in which MacMillan blends media (means of communication), particularly poetry (secular) and liturgy (sacred), using a stratified approach that often places two diametrically opposed themes in close proximity, allows for an enrichment of meaning and a mediated space in which an attempt is undertaken to reconcile complex issues of pain, loss, hope, and forgiveness. This essay examines the method by which MacMillan establishes such a framework in Búsqueda and Cantos Sagrados and argues that in the merging of diverse forms of media, meaning is deepened and enriched to the greater success of the mediation.

  • Mozart Requiem: 1OO Voices
    MOZART REQUIEM: 1OO VOICES Lyn Williams Festive Alleluia Lyn Williams OAM is the founder and artistic director of Sydney Children's Choir and the national children's choir, Gondwana Voices. Under her leadership, the Gondwana Choirs organisation has grown to include twenty three ensembles, including the Gondwana Indigenous Children’s Choir. She has conducted most major professional choirs and orchestras in Australia, and has been music director and conductor for a number of major events, including the 2006 Melbourne Commonwealth Games. Lyn is a Churchill Fellow and as a composer won the 2009 APRA–Australian Music Centre Vocal/Choral Work of the Year for her work A Flock of Stars. In 2015, Lyn was named one of The Australian Financial Review and Westpac’s 100 Women of Influence in the category of Culture. What to listen for Alleluia (or Hallelujah) comes from Hebrew and means ‘praise God.’ Lyn Williams composed this joyful processional work for Sydney Children's Choir. Inspired by medieval dance tunes, it alternates between two sections, with the parts at times singing in canon (that is, singing the same melody but starting one after the other). Anonymous Gaudete from Piae Cantiones 1582 The Piae Cantiones was a collection of medieval songs published in Sweden in 1582. They were unknown in England until three hundred years later, when a number of them were set to new words and published as Christmas carols. They included Good Christian Men, Rejoice, and Good King Wenceslas. Gaudete is also a Christmas carol. The words appear in the Piae cantiones, but the tune commonly used was probably composed in the sixteenth century.

  • Essential Excerpts for Tuba from Original Works Written for Wind Ensemble
    HARVEY, BRENT MEADOWS, D.M.A. Essential Excerpts for Tuba from Original Works Written for Wind Ensemble. (2007) Directed by Dr. Dennis W. AsKew. 54 pp. The need for a standard course of study to assist in preparing students for military band auditions is apparent due to the current number of tuba positions in premier military service band organizations. This examination of Essential Excerpts for Tuba from Original Works Written for Wind Ensemble is intended to be an important document in the field of tuba performance and teaching for practice, preparation, and study of the original wind symphony literature written for tuba. The excerpts included in this text are selected based on a general survey created by the author. The Tuba Excerpt Survey, completed by retired and current premier military service band tuba players and select college and university tuba professors, generated a standard list of excerpts that produced the desired information that finalized the specified essential tuba excerpts to be included and reviewed in this document. By setting performance boundaries, inspecting the musical details of the excerpts, and separating an undergraduate curriculum into appropriate levels of study, a classification and distribution of the found scores and excerpts among different levels is established in this text. Upon examination of these excerpts, additional methodologies and corollary studies have been integrated into the paper to further facilitate student practice and preparation of these essential excerpts for tuba among original
