From the Orchestra’s home in Verizon Hall to the Carnegie Hall stage, his highly collaborative style, deeply-rooted musical curiosity, and boundless enthusiasm, paired with a fresh approach to orchestral programming, have been heralded by critics and audiences alike. The New York Times has called Yannick “phenomenal,” adding that under his baton, “the ensemble, famous for its glowing strings and homogenous richness, has never sounded better.” Over the past decade, Yannick has established himself as a musical leader of the highest caliber and one of the most exciting talents of his generation. Since 2008 he has been music director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic and principal guest conductor of the London Philharmonic, and since 2000 artistic director and principal conductor of Montreal’s Orchestre Métropolitain. He has appeared with such revered ensembles as the Vienna and Berlin philharmonics; the Boston Symphony; the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia; the Dresden Staatskapelle; the Chamber Orchestra of Europe; and the major Canadian orchestras. His talents extend beyond symphonic music into opera and choral music, leading acclaimed performances at the Metropolitan Opera, La Scala, London’s Royal Opera House, and the Salzburg Festival. In February 2013, following the July 2012 announcement of a major long-term collaboration between Yannick and Deutsch Grammophon, the Orchestra announced a recording project with the label, in which Yannick and the Orchestra will record Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring. His discography with the Rotterdam Philharmonic for BIS Records and EMI/Virgin includes an Edison Award-winning album of Ravel’s orchestral works. He has also recorded several award-winning albums with the Orchestre Métropolitain for ATMA Classique. A native of Montreal, Yannick studied at that city’s Conservatory of Music and continued studies with renowned conductor Carlo Maria Giulini and with Joseph Flummerfelt at Westminster Choir College. In 2012 Yannick was appointed a Companion of the Order of Canada, one of the country’s highest civilian honors. His other honors include Canada’s National Arts Centre Award; a Royal Philharmonic Society Award; the Prix Denise-Pelletier, the highest distinction for the arts in Quebec; and an honorary doctorate by the University of Quebec in Montreal.

Born in 1966 in Mór, Hungary, 1966 Holló studied composition at the Györ Conservatory in Now living in Hungary western Hungary. It was while a student there that he began to study percussion instruments and to find in them the resources for his own musical expression. Jazz also influenced the young composer. For several years, he played percussion for Tea, a jazz fusion group that some called the Central European answer to American fusion band Spyro Gyra. Holló joined European percussion ensemble Amadinda in 1991 and remains a member of that group. Most of his music is written for Amadinda, including José/beFORe JOHN5 composed in 2000. But percussion is not the composer’s only medium, and his list of titles include A Rák jegyében (Under the Sign of Cancer) for piano; It’s like jazz! for small ensemble; Preludes for piano; Pan for electronic sources; and Sör és virsli (Sausage and Beer) for clarinet, cello, and piano. José is one of a series of pieces under the umbrella title of beFORe JOHN5, some of them composed by Holló’s colleague Zoltán Váczi, intended to explore the musical cultures of various world populations. About José, the composer writes: The basic idea of my piece was born when I was listening to the recording Oriental Bass by the ethnic contrabass-player Renaud Garcia-Fons. I wondered many times whether it would be possible to present his fundamentally Spanish style with its Arabic and Gypsy effects in an original percussion composition instead of a simple adaptation. My answer to this question is José. Besides Garcia-Fons’s recording I also used a theme by Paco de Lucía in this composition. Marimba has the lead through in this short character piece almost exclusively: Two players standing face-to-face play especially virtuosic complementary motives. Most of these figures are based on the traditional xylophone music of Africa. The players use techniques of amadinda and akadinda (traditional percussion instruments 26 from Uganda) yet the scale they cover is typically flamenco-like at the same time. In the end these two players sound a real guitar as well, with the same technique. This rhythmical-melodic source is enriched by the playing of two other musicians who create many interesting and exciting sounds, for example with the Spanish cajon or the favorite instrument of Gypsy folk music, the simple sheet-iron can, and many more. The piece is dedicated to the composer’s friend, percussionist Josep Vicent. In addition to his continued work with Amadinda, Holló teaches percussion at the Béla Bartók Conservatory in Budapest. His current creative projects include background music for animated films, orchestral arrangements for Hungarian pop singers, in addition to his series of compositions for Amadinda. —Kenneth LaFave Parts I and II from Drumming Steve Reich Here is a recognized way of charting the contested Born in New York City, history of post-war classical music by using the October 3, 1936 geography of the island of Manhattan: There were Now living there and in “uptown” composers (so-called because of the connection Rochester, Vermont with Columbia University) who wrote complex music in the high Modernist tradition of Arnold Schoenberg and Anton Webern.

    EZEK A FIATALOK. The First Hungarian Beat Movie (1967) Ádám Ignácz (Budapest) On a summer afternoon in 1967, Balatonlelle was preparing for an unusual event. Contrary to the common practice of selecting a well-known cinema of Budapest, the premiere of the new Hungarian music film, EZEK A FIATALOK [THESE YOUNGSTERS] was scheduled in the unknown open-air film theatre of this small village resort by Lake Balaton, some 140 kilometres away from the capital city. But in contradiction to the expectations, thousands of people, mostly youngsters, watched the film there during a very short period of time, and later on its popularity expanded further significantly. When the film was screened in film theatres and cultural-educational centres around the country during the following months, the estimated number of viewers hit almost a million. Even though the better part of the early articles and reviews highlighted its weak points, the sheer number of them indicated that the director Tamás Banovich (1925–2015) had found a subject of utmost interest to the entirety of Hungarian society. The extraordinary success and popularity can be explained by the mere fact that within the framework of a simple plot, EZEK A FIATALOK provided a platform for the most prominent contemporary Hungarian beat bands to present their works. In 1967, more than ten years after the first Elvis films had combined the features of popular music and motion picture, The Beatles already stopped giving concerts, and in the West people were talking about the end of the first phase of traditional beat music and were celebrating the birth of new KIELER BEITRÄGE ZUR FILMMUSIKFORSCHUNG, 12, 2016 // 219 genres in pop and rock music.

  • Named Entity Recognition for Search Queries in the Music Domain
    DEGREE PROJECT IN COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING, SECOND CYCLE, 30 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2016 Named Entity Recognition for Search Queries in the Music Domain SANDRA LILJEQVIST KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND COMMUNICATION Named Entity Recognition for Search Queries in the Music Domain SANDRA LILJEQVIST [email protected] Master’s Thesis in Computer Science School of Computer Science and Communication KTH Royal Institute of Technology Supervisor: Olov Engwall Examiner: Viggo Kann Principal: Spotify AB Stockholm - June 2016 Abstract This thesis addresses the problem of named entity recogni- tion (NER) in music-related search queries. NER is the task of identifying keywords in text and classifying them into predefined categories. Previous work in the field has mainly focused on longer documents of editorial texts. However, in recent years, the application of NER for queries has attracted increased attention. This task is, however, ac- knowledged to be challenging due to queries being short, ungrammatical and containing minimal linguistic context. The usage of NER for queries is especially useful for the implementation of natural language queries in domain- specific search applications. These applications are often backed by a database, where the query format otherwise is restricted to keyword search or the usage of a formal query language. In this thesis, two techniques for NER for music-related queries are evaluated; a conditional random field based so- lution and a probabilistic solution based on context words. As a baseline, the most elementary implementation of NER, commonly applied on editorial text, is used. Both of the evaluated approaches outperform the baseline and demon- strate an overall F1 score of 79.2% and 63.4% respectively.

  • The Music of the Roma in Hungary
    Data » Music » Countries » The music of the Roma in Hungary http://romani.uni-graz.at/rombase The music of the Roma in Hungary Katalin Kovalcsik Traditionally there are two kinds of music performed by the Roma: one is musical service rendered for non-Romani audiences, the other is music made within the Romani community. The music played for outsiders is labelled "Gypsy music" by Hungarian scientific literature having adopted its colloquial name, and the music they use among themselves is called "folk music". At the same time, the Roma began gradually to develop an ethnic music culture from the 1970s. The process of creating the institutional conditions for the practising, improvement and presentation of their own culture picked up momentum when after the great political turn they obtained national minority status. In the following, I first give a sketchy summary of the two traditional cultural modes, before listing the main tendencies asserted in today's Romani music life in Hungary. The table below shows the Romani ethnic groups in Hungary and their traditional occupations (after Kemény 1974).
