Official Magazine of the Maryland Symphony Orchestra LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ear MSO Friends, DWhile there are still a lot of exciting performances yet to come this season, like Ports of Call with the incomparable guitarist, Sharon Isbin in April, or the amazing LaKisha Jones’ tribute to Whitney Houston in May. Here at MSO central the team is putting final touches on our 39th season that promises to be as wonderful as any to date! With a few months behind me now, I’m beginning to get a real sense of the level of commitment and loyalty this community has for the MSO. So many of you are supporting us by attending every concert and supporting our Annual Fund! Some are investing in our future with gifts to the MSO Endowment or New Initiative Fund. As part of our work to sustain this great orchestra, we are developing plans to increase engagement, or loyalty, by those at all levels. So if you have only attended once or twice, we hope you will return again soon and will be sending you reminders of upcoming events. If you attend most of our concerts, we hope to entice you with a subscription to all of them by offering savings and benefits. If you already subscribe and donate, we hope to find new ways to show you how much we appreciate your generous support. As we begin renewals for next season, we hope to create more consistency in how we offer subscriptions, flexible packages, and single tickets. We welcome your input during the process. You may begin to see some small changes in how we sell the season or price tickets, but know that we are working to create the best concert experience and most sustainable model for the future. Your continued enjoyment and loyalty are our top priority! Thank you for joining us today and for being part of the MSO family. Jonathan Parrish Executive Director Bravo! Official Magazine of the Maryland Symphony Orchestra 5 LETTER FROM THE MUSIC DIRECTOR reetings and Welcome! GThis season, my 20th with the Maryland Symphony as Music Director and Conductor, offers me an opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to my brilliant colleagues in the orchestra, our talented and devoted administrative staff, our actively involved and visionary board, our generous volunteers and donors and most important of all, to you, our audience members, who have supported us with your gracious and enthusiastic presence over the seasons. © Melanie-Anderson The Art of Music is all about communication between player and listener. It is an active and vital relationship that allows moments of insight, inspiration, excitement and reflection on both sides of the stage. Each season we strive to challenge ourselves to new artistic heights and deepen our relationship with you in the process. The programming for this season is spectacular and particularly meaningful for me. I have had the pleasure and privilege to choose several favorite works, such as symphonies by Dvořák, Schumann and Mahler, concertos by Grieg, Rodrigo and Rouse, epic warhorses such as Carmina Burana and The Pines of Rome, a new work by Kimo Williams, as well as unfamiliar, but eminently worthy works by Florence Price and Ruth Gipps. I’ve also relished the opportunity to invite distinguished and beloved colleagues to join us this season as guest artists, including our brilliant Concertmaster, Robert Martin, pianist Andrew Staupe, soprano, Martha Guth, Grammy Award-winning guitarist, Sharon Isbin and the stellar voices of Baltimore Choral Arts. Along with our traditional “Home for the Holidays” featuring soprano Christine Lyons and the children’s choirs of Hagerstown’s First Christian Church, our Pops series brings back our good friends, the ever-popular Time for Three in February and in May, American Idol finalist LaKisha Jones joins us in a tribute To Whitney, With Love. This season, apart from our subscription series, we will continue to serve over eleven thousand children throughout the year with our educational concerts and masterclasses, culminating in our annual LinkUp programs in partnership with Carnegie Hall. Our outreach continues with performances in Garrett and Allegany Counties and in late May, we join the City Ballet School for the world premiere of a new ballet, “The Spell,” created and choreographed by Danielle Horochowski, with newly composed music by Arshak Sirunyan. We are thrilled to call the Maryland Theatre our home, both on stage and now offstage too, with our offices relocated to the fabulous new expansion. The joyous strains of Beethoven’s “Consecration of the House” will inaugurate a new era for the Theatre and the MSO and I have every confidence that your continued presence and support, will ensure that great music will continue to raise the rafters for decades to come.

  • Lakisha Jones
    LaKisha Jones Best known to millions of TV viewers as a top four finalist during the 2007 season of “American Idol,” LaKisha Jones is ready to reclaim center stage in music, theatre and television. Her last album, “So Glad I’m Me” was full of Jones’ expressive, full-bodied and arresting vocals, the same voice that electrified “American Idol” viewers with the Dreamgirls showstopper “And I Am Telling You” and later the Broadway stage in the Oprah Winfrey produced, Tony Award-winning musical, The Color Purple. Having worked with hit-making songwriters and producers including Tony Nicholas (Patti LaBelle, Luther Van- dross), Ro & Sauce (Brandy, Ne-Yo) and Greg Curtis (Keyshia Cole, Yolanda Adams), Jones’ album featured a spirited mix of R&B and soul. A few noteworthy songs included the single “Same Song,” penned by award-win- ning songwriter Dianne Warren, Whitney Houston’s “You Give Good Love,” the gospel song “Just As I Am,” and Jones’ soaring ballad to her daughter, “Beautiful Girl.” She auditioned for “American Idol” once before in 2003 but didn’t make the cut. Jones drove to New York to audition again for “Idol” and made it to the 2007 season where she became the fourth finalist. She segued from “Idol” to the Broadway stage for “The Color Purple” where she played two roles: that of a “church lady” and of the pivotal character “Sophia.” The latter role she alternated with R&B icon Chaka Khan, who became her mentor. Jones participated in Khan’s 35th Anniversary Tour. Following her Broadway stint Jones provided vocal coaching on MTV’s reality competition “Legally Blonde: The Search for Elle Woods,” a show designed to find and hone Broadway’s next star.

  • Body As Evidence
    Chapter 1 Pop Goes Democracy Mediating Race, Gender, and Nation on American Idol Parallels between presidential elections and the hit TV series are not hard to make. Indeed, they had become punch lines in comedyAmerican routines: Idol from Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert complaining that it took too long to determine the next American Idol (in a gag that had audiences assuming he was referring to the next U.S. president) to ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel quipping that, after watching the vice presidential debate during the U.S. presidential campaign in 2008, he “voted four times for Sarah Palin and six times for David Archuleta,” in reference to the popular Republican vice presidential candidate and frontrunner contestant that year. Interestingly, movie critic RogerAmerican Ebert Idol’s mounted criticism against Palin for being “the American Idol candidate,” in which he argued the following: I think I might be able to explain some of Sarah Palin’s appeal. She’s the “American Idol” candidate. Consider. What defines an “American Idol” finalist? They’re good‑looking, work well on television, have a sunny personality, are fierce competitors, and so talented, why, they’re darned near the real thing. There’s a reason “American Idol” gets such high ratings. People identify with the contestants. They think, Hey, that could be me up there on that show! . My problem is, I don’t want to be up there. I don’t want a vice president who is darned near good enough. I want a vice president who is better, wiser, well‑traveled, has met world leaders, who three months ago had an opinion on Iraq.

  • Brian Mcknight Evolution of a Man Album Download Better
    brian mcknight evolution of a man album download Better. After the release of More Than Words, Brian McKnight established his own label, Brian McKnight Music, through the artist-friendly Kobalt Label Services, and went about making his third proper studio album outside the major-label system. Even more organic than what immediately preceded it, Better is filled with lively songs that are well crafted but don't seem the least bit fussed over. McKnight sounds like he's having as much fun as ever, gleefully flitting from falsetto disco-funk jams to lonesome, modern country-flavored ballads. It's all free and easy and allows for some whimsical moves, like the reggae backing on "Goodbye" and the tricky prog/pop-funk hybrid "Key 2 My Heart," the latter cut being where his love for Swedish trio Dirty Loops is most evident. There are occasional odd quirks, like the winking manner in which he slips "bitch" into the chorus of "Strut," and the way he throws a sharp curve, the tipsy newfound-love rocker "Just Enough," so early in the sequence. Several tracks do keep it simple and heartfelt, the qualities for which McKnight is most known, heard best on the humble title track, "Uh Oh Feeling," and "Like I Do." Mercifully, this material is a lot less erratic than the back cover typography (which displays McKnight's name as "B. McKnight," "B. Mcknight," "brian mcknight," "Brian McKnight," and "BRIAN MCKNIGHT"). Brian mcknight evolution of a man album download. It won't be long now until Brian McKnight unleashes his new album Evolution Of A Man (October 27th).

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
