  • Guitarist Sharon Isbin to Star with Santa Rosa Symphony
    Guitarist Sharon Isbin to star with Santa Rosa Symphony By DIANE PETERSON THE PRESS DEMOCRAT Published: Thursday, January 20, 2011 at 3:00 a.m. WWW.SHARONISBIN.COM/ J. HENRY FAIR Sharon Isbin serves as the American ambassador of the classical guitar, performing everywhere from the concert hall to the White House. It's a job that no one else really wanted. That's because most Americans are exposed to the guitar through rock and folk music and then fall in love with classical guitar by accident. “That's changing now, but that certainly has been part of the history of classical guitar in this country,” Isbin said in a phone interview from her home in New York City. “Europe has a much longer tradition of classical guitar, going back to Spain and Italy and the U.K., so that the roots have had time to blossom and flourish.” For the Santa Rosa Symphony's fourth concert set this weekend, Isbin will whisk the audience off to the gardens of Spain during a performance of Joaquin Rodrigo's passionate “Concierto de Aranjuez.” “The Rodrigo is one of the most popular works of any works for orchestra,” she said. “The second movement is so powerfully moving and emotionally raw, with great nuances and musical inspiration. It's something that really touches people in unusual ways.” Led by guest conductor and Mexico native Enrique Arturo Diemecke, the south-of-the- border program also includes Astor Piazzolla's seductive “Tangazo, Variations on Buenos Aires” and the Fourth Symphony of composer Carlos Chavez, considered to be the founder of modern Mexican music.

With texts taken from Luther’s translation of the Bible and an emphasis on comforting the living for their loss and on hope of the Resurrection, the work is deeply rooted in the tradition of Bach and Schütz, but is vastly different in character from the Latin Requiem of Catholic tradition with its evocation of the Day of Judgement and prayers for mercy on the souls of the dead. The success of Marin Alsop as Music Director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra was recognized when, in 2009, her tenure was extended to 2015. In 2012 she took up the post of Chief Conductor of the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra, where she steers the orchestra in its artistic and creative programming, recording ventures and its education and outreach activities.

  • A Narratological Interpretation of John Corigliano's Pied Piper Fantasy (1982)
    Playing the Piper: A Narratological Interpretation of John Corigliano’s Pied Piper Fantasy (1982) By Margaret Ann Lambie DMA, University of Kansas, 2018 MM, University of Kansas, 2016 BM, Hastings College, 2014 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. _______________________________ Chair: David Alan Street _______________________________ James Michael Kirkendoll _______________________________ Margaret Rose Marco _______________________________ Marylee Z. Southard _______________________________ Eric Wolf Stomberg Date Defended: August 23, 2018 The thesis committee for Margaret Ann Lambie certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Playing the Piper: A Narratological Interpretation of John Corigliano’s Pied Piper Fantasy (1982) _______________________________ Chair: David Alan Street Date Approved: August 23, 2018 ii Abstract John Corigliano’s Pied Piper Fantasy is a rather unusual concerto in the flute world. Written for and premiered by James Galway in 1982, the piece tells the familiar tale of the Pied Piper in Hamelin. In addition to being technically challenging, the piece has a music-theatrical dimension, including a suggested costume and directions for how the soloist enters and exits the stage. Because of the significance of the fable to the piece, an analysis that addresses this specific aspect seems appropriate. Although other authors have addressed this topic in the music to some extent, there is room for a more thoroughly narrativized interpretation as a possible basis for performance. This study consists of four complementary chapters. Chapter One, “The Pied Piper Coming to the Stage,” presents a brief history of the piece and an understanding of Corigliano’s career and compositional style.

The cutting-edge orchestral sinfonias of Stamitz and Richter were simultaneously energetic and sensuous, and were a significant influence on the young Mozart, who was later at the epicentre of the Classical Viennese style. His fifth violin concerto – nicknamed the Turkish and performed by soloist Rachael Beesley – inhabits a hazy world of love and intrigue, and the finale of Mozart’s Symphony No.40 contains the most famous ascending musical rocket of all. Voyage of Musical Discovery | Tuesday 14 May The orchestra shares the stage with Jane Rutter and her Third Culture World Music Ensemble.
