However, the individual that emerged, inflamed by the ideals of the French Revolution, was not satisfied with reason alone. He felt the nostalgia of the infinite, longed to yield to the heat of his passions, and recognized himself in the unpredictable beauty of nature. Thus, the final years of the eighteenth century gave birth to a new way of seeing the world, the triumph of emotion and nature over reason. This was Romanticism. Over the next three decades, music became the most Romantic of all the arts. Composers cast off the restrictions of the classical age and embraced freer, more individually expressive forms. With The Romantic Revolution, Pinchas Zukerman, the Orchestra, and a roster of outstanding soloists invite you to relive the revolution and discover (or rediscover) the music that soared free of historic bonds to express the timeless melody of the universal soul. the REVOLUTION FESTIVAL september 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 1 Romantic october All Romantic Revolution performances begin at 8 p.m. in Southam Hall. 4 BEETHOVEN’S “EROICA” Beethoven’s “Eroica” marks the turning point from Classicism to Romanticism A Mark Motors Audi Signature Series concert with its extraordinary scope, bold harmonies, and drama.

  • Live Structures
    LIVE STRUCTURES Graphical Notation Perceptible Musical Architecture Linda Bouchard Online Lectures Virtual Workshops Composer Linda Bouchard has been working on the Live Structures project since 2017 with the initial support of a two-year grant from the Canada Council for the arts . Live Structures explores the interpretation of analytical data into musical parameters. Much of the research took place during an artist residency at matralab, Concordia University, in Montreal Quebec, Canada, where she collaborated with designer Joseph Browne to develop Ocular Scores™, a custom tool that creates graphical scores from the analysis of complex sounds and textures. To date three iterations of Ocular Scores™ have been created, addressing the ability to draw: a) shapes and images that are replicable; b) transcriptions of a musical performance that reveal musical events, and c) real-time images which can be manipulated in a live performance and interactive setting. The beta version of this graphical notation platform has been developed in close collaborations with expert performers from Montreal, Vancouver, San Francisco, and Zurich. In 2019, Bouchard was invited to give demonstrations and lectures on Live Structures and Ocular Scores™ at the festival MNM in Montreal, Quebec; the Banff Center for the Arts in Canada; the TENOR Conference in Melbourne, Australia; the German society for Music Theory Conference at the Zurich University for the Arts; and CNMAT, UC Berkeley in California. In 2020, pre-covid19, Bouchard had lectures and performances on the calendar for the IRCAM Forum Hors les Murs in Montreal; the ISCM Festival 2020 in New Zealand; and at the IX International FIMM Festival held at the National University of Quilmes, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Vancouver musicians have long been aware of a certain musical kinship between our city and the Un visage d’emprunt Netherlands. Many of the Lower Mainland’s most adventurous and influential musicians have spent time working and studying Robin de Raaff (1999; rev. 2002) in the Netherlands, three of whom—John Korsrud, Justin clarinet, violin, cello, piano Christensen and Peggy Lee—are involved in tonight’s concert. Dutch-born and raised Edward Top, a relative new-comer to Pots ‘n Pans Falling* Vancouver, has been a virtual creative lightning bolt to the city, Edward Top (2013) as a composer and as curator of the VSO’s Annex Series. flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano, percussion, We are thrilled to be premiering new works by Justin and recorded child violinist Edward, on tonight’s program. Critical Distance, Justin’s homage to French New Wave film director Jean-Luc Godard’s intermission genre-busting musical Une femme est une femme, challenges our pre-conceptions as performers and listeners, while Edward’s Critical Distance* Pots ‘n Pans Falling, with its cascading childlike motives, is a Justin Christensen (2013) poignant political statement. Edward’s piece, as he has noted flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano, percussion in this program, came about through the generous donations of members of Acoustic Panel, a grass-roots commissioning Workers Union initiative that was dreamed up and established by the late, great Louis Andriessen (1975) Tom Cone, to whom we all owe an enormous debt of gratitude and inspiration.

  • 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.
