Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document. *** Abstract: Most numerous among the recordings of Bernard Greenhouse are those he made with the Beaux Arts Trio, the legendary ensemble of which he was the founding cellist in 1955 with pianist Menahem Pressler and violinist Daniel Guilet (later followed by violinist Isidore Cohen). With the Beaux Arts Trio, Greenhouse performed and recorded the entire standard piano trio repertoire before retiring from the group in 1987. However, Greenhouse’s career on the international chamber music stage represents only one dimension of his richly varied musical life. He was also a virtuoso cello soloist, a tireless musical collaborator, and the long-time cellist of New York’s Bach Aria Group. In order to demonstrate the breadth and depth of his recorded legacy, we have organized this discography in three sections: (1) Greenhouse As Soloist and Collaborator;

  • Music School Performing Two Operas Annually for Nearly Two Decades
    HARLES H. WEBB, dean emeritus of Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, says there is no mystery as to how Jacobs became the world’s largest school of music and one of the best. “The single most important factor is the quality of the faculty,” Webb says. “If you are an outstanding student, the foremost question (l-r) Susann McDonald, Violette in your mind is who will I study with? Who will be my mentor?” Verdy, Menahem Pressler, It’s been well documented that vaunted IU President and Chan- David Baker, and Stanley Ritchie. cellor Herman B Wells wanted to see the university develop a world-class school of music. During his presidency (1938–1962), The MASTERS Metropolitan Opera helped set the stage by traveling from its home of the in New York City to the small Midwestern outpost of Bloomington, music school performing two operas annually for nearly two decades. Webb and the current dean, Gwyn Richards, agree that the ap- pointment of Wilfred C. Bain as dean in 1947 set the music school on its path to greatness. “When he became dean, no school in the country gave a doctorate in performance,” says Webb. “He argued that people in performance needed to be able to complete their education as high as people who were seeking a Ph.D. in other fields. So a doctorate in performance became a reality.” The ability for a student to gain conservatory-quality training and take academic classes at a Research 1 university also enhanced the allure of IU. “Bain sought faculty who knew what it was to be successful on the world’s best stages.

  • Piano Susan Adolphson Henke Susan Henke
    1994 - Piano Susan Adolphson Henke Susan Henke participated in the 1994 RMG scholarship competition; her repertoire was Rhapsody #2 in G Minor, Opus 79, by Johannes Brahms, and the Allemande from French Suite #5 by J.S. Bach. The competition provided a focus for Susan’s efforts, and it was a thrill for her to study this music in depth. Susan used the music camp scholarship prize towards the 1994 Lutheran Summer Music Camp held at Saint Olaf College. During this four-week camp, Susan entered the concerto competition with the first movement of Piano Concerto #3 by Sergei Prokofiev. Susan had eight piano lessons with Dr. A. DeWayne Wee, a member of the St. Olaf College music faculty. Overall, these experiences were important in making the decision to apply for and eventually to attend Saint Olaf College. Susan’s first piano teacher was Marjorie Lidstrom. After Mrs. Lidstrom’s death in 1990, Susan’s studies continued with Kathryn Simpson Sandquist until college, when Susan studied with Dr. Wee. Susan was awarded a Winston Cassler music scholarship, and graduated with a double major in Music and Biology. Susan and her husband (Corey) met during their first year at Saint Olaf, when she was his accompanist. Currently, Susan works full-time in the Clinical Genome Sequencing Laboratory at the Mayo Clinic. Also, Susan is the second piano/harpsichord/celesta player with the Rochester Symphony Orchestra. At Zumbro Lutheran Church, Susan occasionally plays piano, harpsichord and organ to assist with liturgical music or to accompany Corey on the French horn. Susan also sings in the Zumbro Lutheran Choir 2008, 2010 - Violin & Piano Aaron Anderson Aaron Anderson started his music education when he began studying violin with Linda Thompson at the age of 4.

  • Lydia Tang Thesis.Pdf
    THE MULTI-FACETED ARTISTRY OF VIOLIST EMANUEL VARDI BY LYDIA M. TANG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Performance and Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Rudolf Haken, Chair Associate Professor Katherine Syer, Director of Research Associate Professor Scott Schwartz Professor Stephen Taylor Clinical Assistant Professor Elizabeth Freivogel Abstract As a pioneer viola virtuoso of the 20th century, Emanuel “Manny” Vardi (c. 1915-2011) is most widely recognized as the first violist to record all of Paganini’s Caprices. As a passionate advocate for the viola as a solo instrument, Vardi premiered and championed now-standard repertoire, elevated the technique of violists by his virtuosic example, and inspired composers to write more demanding new repertoire for the instrument. However, the details of his long and diverse career have never to date been explored in depth or in a comprehensive manner. This thesis presents the first full biographical narrative of Vardi’s life: highlighting his work with the NBC Symphony under Arturo Toscanini, his activities as a soloist for the United States Navy Band during World War II, his compositional output, visual artwork, an analysis of his playing and teaching techniques, as well as his performing and recording legacies in classical, jazz, and popular music. Appendices include a chronology of his life, discography, lists of compositions written by and for Vardi, registered copyrights, and a list of interviews conducted by the author with family members, former students, and colleagues.
