Conductor Cristian Măcelaru Leads the Cso and Cellist Alisa Weilerstein in World Premiere Performances of Pascal Dusapin’S New Concerto–Outscape For Immediate Release: Press Contacts: May 17, 2015 Eileen Chambers, 312-294-3092 Photos Available By Request [email protected] CONDUCTOR CRISTIAN MĂCELARU LEADS THE CSO AND CELLIST ALISA WEILERSTEIN IN WORLD PREMIERE PERFORMANCES OF PASCAL DUSAPIN’S NEW CONCERTO–OUTSCAPE Program also includes Ibert’s Bacchanale and Holst’s The Planets May 26-31, 2016 CHICAGO—Conductor Cristian Măcelaru returns to lead the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO) in subscription concerts on Thursday, May 26, at 8:00 p.m., Friday, May 27, at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, May 28, at 8:00 p.m., Sunday, May 29, at 3:00 p.m. and Tuesday, May 31, at 7:30 p.m. Celebrated cellist Alisa Weilerstein joins Măcelaru and the CSO for the world premiere performances of French composer Pascal Dusapin’s Outscape for violoncello and orchestra, a CSO co-commissioned work. The program also includes Ibert’s Bacchanale and Holst’s iconic orchestral work The Planets, which received its U.S. premiere from the CSO in 1920 and is performed as part of the CSO’s ongoing 125th anniversary season programming honoring the Orchestra’s tradition of sharing new music with its audiences. The program opens with Jacques Ibert’s riotous showpiece, Bacchanale, and closes with Gustav Holst’s seven-movement orchestral suite, The Planets, which features the women of the Chicago Symphony Chorus under the direction of Chorus Director Duain Wolfe. Taking listeners on a virtual journey to space with its vivid depictions of Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, The Planets earned Holst popular and critical acclaim at the time of its composition in 1916. The focal point of the program is the world premiere of Pascal Dusapin’s Outscape for violoncello and orchestra featuring Weilerstein as soloist. The new work is a co-commission of the CSOA by the Mrs. Harold C. Smith Fund for New Music, Opéra de Paris, and Fundação Casa da Música, in collaboration with Oper Stuttgart—supported by Förderverein der Staatstheater Stuttgart e. V.—and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. While Outscape is Dusapin’s second cello concerto, it is his first cello concerto written specifically with Weilerstein in mind. Technically challenging, yet filled with a distinct lyricism, Dusapin’s Outscape includes a dynamic dialogue between the soloist and the orchestra throughout the work and is based on the ideas of escape and return. Dusapin is scheduled to attend the world premiere performance on May 26. Pascal Dusapin is an internationally renowned composer of orchestral, chamber, vocal and operatic works, who is particularly heralded for writing deeply emotive music. A longtime pupil of composer Iannis Xenakis, Dusapin has also taken great inspiration throughout his career from the work of French composer Edgard Varèse. In addition to composition, Dusapin’s other interests including philosophy, photography and architecture, continue to inform his creative output. Dusapin has received numerous awards, including the 2005 Cino del Duca prize and 2007 Dan David Prize. Conductor Cristian Măcelaru came to popular attention after leading the CSO as a replacement for then Helen Regenstein Conductor Emeritus Pierre Boulez in 2012. Previously Assistant Conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra in 2011, Măcelaru was later promoted to Associate Conductor in 2012, the same year he was awarded the second-ever Sir George Solti Emerging Conductor Award. In 2014, Măcelaru received the prestigious Solti Conducting Award. He has gone on to make his debut at Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall and with numerous orchestras in the U.S. and Europe. Măcelaru is currently the conductor-in-residence for the Philadelphia Orchestra. Hailed as one of the most promising and unique new artists of her generation, American cellist Alisa Weilerstein has received such accolades as the 2011 MacArthur “genius grant” Fellowship, Lincoln Center’s 2008 Martin E. Segal prize, the 2006 Leonard Bernstein Award and an Avery Fisher Career Grant in 2000. She has appeared with conductors including Marin Alsop, Daniel Barenboim, Sir Andrew Davis, Sir Mark Elder, Manfred Honeck, Zubin Mehta, Ludovic Morlot, Donald Runnicles, Yuri Temirkanov, Jaap van Zweden and numerous others. Weilerstein’s first recording features the Elgar and Elliott Carter cello concertos with Daniel Barenboim and the Staatskapelle Berlin, and was named “Recording of the Year 2013” by BBC Music. Weilerstein’s most recent release is an acclaimed duo sonata album with pianist Inon Barnatan. In addition to performing the world premiere of Outscape with the CSO, Weilerstein is scheduled to give the piece its European premiere with the Stuttgart and Paris Opera Orchestras in 2016 and 2017, respectively. Other new work on the horizon for Weilerstein includes world premiere performances of a cello concerto by composer and conductor Matthias Pintscher in 2017.

    Cultivating the Contemporary Clarinetist: Pedagogical Materials for Extended Clarinet Techniques Caitlin Beare A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2021 Reading Committee: Timothy Salzman, Chair David Rahbee Benjamin Lulich Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music © Copyright 2021 Caitlin Beare University of Washington Abstract Cultivating the Contemporary Clarinetist: Pedagogical Materials for Extended Clarinet Techniques Caitlin Beare Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Timothy Salzman School of Music The exploration and implementation of new timbral possibilities and techniques over the past century have redefined approaches to clarinet performance and pedagogy. As the body of repertoire involving nontraditional, or “extended,” clarinet techniques has grown, so too has the pedagogical literature on contemporary clarinet performance, yielding method books, dissertations, articles, and online resources. Despite the wealth of resources on extended clarinet techniques, however, few authors offer accessible pedagogical materials that function as a gateway to learning contemporary clarinet techniques and literature. Consequently, many clarinetists may be deterred from learning a significant portion of the repertoire from the past six decades, impeding their musical development. The purpose of this dissertation is to contribute to the pedagogical literature pertaining to extended clarinet techniques. The document consists of two main sections followed by two appendices. The first section (chapters 1-2) contains an introduction and a literature review of extant resources on extended clarinet techniques published between 1965–2020. This literature review forms the basis of the compendium of materials, found in Appendix A of this document, which aims to assist performers and teachers in searching for and selecting pedagogical materials involving extended clarinet techniques.

The birds are the opposite of Time; they are our desire for light, for stars, for rainbows, and for jubilant songs.” -Messiaen Quartet for the End of Time had one of the most remarkable premieres of the 20th century. Messiaen served in the French army during World War II and was captured by the Germans at Verdun in June 1940. He was sent to Stalag VIII-A in Görlitz, Germany (today in Poland), where he was imprisoned during the winter of 1940-41. The prisoner-of-war camp was bitterly cold and food was in short supply, but Messiaen’s fame helped him greatly. A sympathetic guard provided him with the materials to compose this quartet and arranged the premiere on January 15, 1941 in a barely heated hall in front of a few hundred spellbound prisoners and guards.

  • Pascal Dusapin: Accords Photographiques
    Press Text: Exhibition Opening Pascal Dusapin: Accords Photographiques The Leica exhibition of photographs by the composer Pascal Dusapin at the foyer of the Haus für Mozart/Felsenreitschule is on display from 23 July to 31 August 2019. Photos: SF/Marco Borrelli (SF, 26 July 2019) A snow-covered bench by a lake, a structure in which shadows are fragmented, or the hind legs of a dog on wet cobblestones: the interplay of light and shadow, architecture and nature is the focus of photographs by the composer Pascal Dusapin. He is a literary man of music and at the same time a photographic artist, says Artistic Director Markus Hinterhäuser at the opening of Pascal Dusapin’s exhibition Accords Photographiques. “It is rare that an artist has mastered a second metier so profoundly,” he says. “I consider Pascal Dusapin a major composer of our times.” Thus, he has dedicated an entire series in this year’s concert programme to him. However, he is no less interested in the composer’s photographs, so last autumn he flew to Paris at short notice, finding everything he loves at Dusapin’s studio: music, literature, photography. Hinterhäuser describes photography as a mass phenomenon of our times. Everyone is continuously taking photographs of everything they see – which has nothing to do with art. Photography is about the photographer’s eye and about a manner of perceiving the world. “In Dusapin’s photographs, I also see elements of his music and elements of his teacher, Iannis Xenakis,” the Festival’s Artistic Director says. When Karin Rehn-Kaufmann, the Art Director of Leica Galleries International, heard of the idea of showing the composer’s analogue photographs in Salzburg, she immediately agreed.
