CONNECTING ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE: A CASE STUDY FOR DEVELOPING AN EFFECTIVE APPROACH ANNIE YIH ne of the purposes of teaching music theory is to connect the practice of analysis with O performance. However, several studies have expressed concern over a lack of connec- tion between the two, and they have raised questions concerning the performative qualities of traditional analytic theory.1 If theorists are to achieve one of the objectives of analysis in provid- ing performers with information for making decisions, and to develop what John Rink calls “informed intuition,” then they need to understand what types of analysis—and what details in an analysis—can be of service to performers.2 As we know, notation is not music; notation must be realized as music, and the first step involves score study.

  • Honens Media Release for Immediate Release
    HONENS MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GARRICK OHLSSON TO JOIN HONENS AS MENTOR-IN-RESIDENCE AT 2018 PIANO COMPETITION Calgary, AB, February 27, 2018—Honens is pleased to announce Garrick Ohlsson as Mentor-in-Residence for the 2018 Honens International Piano Competition & Festival. He replaces Janina Fialkowska, who has withdrawn for health reasons. Since his triumph as winner of the 1970 Chopin International Piano Competition, Mr. Ohlsson has established himself worldwide as a musician of magisterial interpretive and technical prowess. Although long regarded as one of the world’s leading exponents of the music of Frédéric Chopin, he commands an enormous repertoire, with more than 80 concertos, ranging from Haydn and Mozart to works of the 21st century, many commissioned for him. “I’m delighted to be taking part in the 2018 Honens International Piano Competition & Festival as Artist and Mentor-in- Residence. While I have taken part in many competitions, both as a competitor and as a juror, participating as a Mentor is a new role for me. I see it as a great way to help emerging pianists in a way that’s complementary to teaching,” says Mr. Ohlsson. As Honens’ Mentor-in-Residence, Mr. Ohlsson will offer coaching sessions to each of the seven Semifinalists who do not advance to the Finals. He will also hear each of the Finalists perform with the Azahar Ensemble, and the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Karina Canellakis, and will meet with each Finalist to share insights. The Mentor-in-Residence shares his own experiences as a professional pianist and provides wisdom on the challenges of building a career as an artist.

  • We Are Migrants
    we are students we are teachers we are performers we are creators we are storytellers we are explorers we are the rncm we are migrants Migration has been in the DNA of the RNCM from its earliest roots, when in 1893 the German-born conductor Sir Charles Hallé realised his vision of founding a Northern conservatoire which became the Royal Manchester College of Music. Ever since then, musicians have migrated to this city from all over the world to study, teach and perform here. Move forward to 2019/20 and the RNCM now has over 950 students from 55 countries, each with their own unique experience of migration. #WeAreMigrants celebrates the stories and creative output of musicians past and present who have left their homes, through choice or necessity, and explores the impact of migration on their music and on their adopted countries.

  • The 2018 Guide Festivals
    April 2018 The 2018 Guide Festivals FEATURE ARTICLE 10 Questions, Two (Very Different) Festivals Editor’s Note Our fifth annual Guide to Summer Festivals is our biggest yet, with some 85 annotated entries, plus our usual free access to the 1400 listings in the Musical America database. The details for the 85—dates, locations, artistic directors, programming, guest artists, etc.—have been provided by the festivals themselves, in response to a questionnaire sent to our list of Editor’s Picks. Those are determined by a number of factors: it’s hardly a surprise to see the big-budget events, such as Salzburg, Tanglewood, and Aspen, included. But budget is by no means the sole criterion. The 2018 Guide Programming, performers, range and type of events offered—all of these factor into the equation. For our feature article, we chose two highly regarded events and asked them one set of questions, just for the purposes of compare and contrast. Since George Loomis traveled to Ravenna last summer and knows Ojai well, we decided he was the perfect candidate to get the answers. Our hunch that the two couldn’t be more different turned out to be quite accurate: one takes place over a weekend, the over a two-month period; one is in the U.S., the other in Europe; one is rural, the other urban; one’s in a valley, the other by the sea; one focuses on contemporary fare, the other on traditional; one houses its artists in homes, the other in hotels; one is overseen by a man, the other by Festivals a woman; Ojai’s venues are primarily outdoor and strictly 20th century, Ravenna’s are mostly indoor and date as far back as the sixth century.
