UPCOMING CONCERT Sunday, December 9, 2012, 7 pm at Crowden Music Center (1475 Rose Street, Berkeley) 4 December 6, 2012 Message from the Music Director Dear friends, Welcome to our second concert of the season. There is a reason that we titled this program “The Rebels.” The first half is very much about imagination in our times. I feel particu- larly honored to be premiering Dylan Mattingly’s Invisible Skyline. At 21, Dylan is already one of America’s most prom- ising composers and a familiar face to Berkeley audiences. John Adams describes him as “a hugely talented young composer who writes music of wild imagination and vigorous energy.” Pianist Shai Wosner is undeniably one of the best musicians I have ever worked with and I can’t wait for us to perform Ligeti’s Piano Concerto, described by the composer as his “most complex and technically demanding score.” You are in for a rare treat. The second half of the program features one of my very favorite pieces, Schumann’s Symphony No. 2 in C Major, Op. 61. I am particularly drawn to Schumann’s work. I believe his piano and vocal scores are some of the most beautiful examples in the history of creation; when I listen to Schumann’s sym- phonies, I can’t help but identify with them, as well as recognize his great respect and love for the music written before him, most particularly that of J.S. Bach. I am very proud of our beautiful programming and specifically that Berkeley Symphony continues to look ahead, celebrating the great composers of the future through our Mission to Commission! Thank you for being part of our Berkeley Symphony family. My very best, Joana Carneiro December 6, 2012 5 6 December 6, 2012 Message from the Executive Director DEFIANTLY ORIGINAL. What better way to describe Berkeley Symphony! Mention our name to most musicians, conductors, soloists, agents and managers photo by Marshall Berman from North America to Europe and Asia, and they not only will know of us, but they will express their admiration and respect. When Berkeley Symphony first approached Joana Carneiro about becoming our new Music Director, her mentor, Esa-Pekka Salonen—who had advised her to focus on securing a European post—told her that “Berkeley is a different story; I encourage you to wholeheartedly pursue this possibility.” And that is precisely what Joana has done. She has shared her heart and soul with us. Her passion, warmth and energy have trans- formed our sound and programming in ways that have caught the attention of all who experience our concerts. From the severest of critics to our most loyal fans, everyone agrees that something special is happening in Berkeley. In an unprecedented move, we have commissioned and are presenting four world premieres this season—one on each of our four concerts. I hope you will join us for this exciting journey and bear witness to history in the making. (Remember…all music ever written was considered “new music” when it first premiered.) From Berkeley’s very own Paul Dresher and Dylan Mattingly to Lisbon native Andrea Pinto-Correia and Pulitzer Prize-winner Steven Stucky, you will discover unchartered territories that will delight your senses and expand your horizons. I look forward to seeing you often in the season ahead.

  • Stranger Love Treatment
    S T R A N G E R L O V E an opera in 3 acts Music by Dylan Mattingly Libretto by Thomas Bartscherer Lead Production Team (in-progress): Martin Butler, Ruben Van Leer, Leigh Sachwitz, Nicole Beutler Concept by Thomas Bartscherer & Dylan Mattingly Contact: [email protected] | +1 510 333 2543 For more information, visit: www.stranger.love *** What is Stranger Love? Stranger Love is a 6-hour-long multimedia opera, scored for 28 musicians, 8 singers, and 6 dancers. An immersive experience, Stranger Love is a grand celebration of being alive. Inspired by Plato’s account of love in the Symposium, Stranger Love gradually broadens in scope and frame over the course of its three acts from the personal to the archetypical to the expansion of the universe. The experience of Stranger Love evokes the visceral thrill of a gospel revival, the ethereal calm of watching snow fall, the wonder of staring into the night sky. Stranger Love is committed to an experience of the impossible. It is is deliberately countercultural in both scale and its commitment to joy; its music dances faster than we believe possible and offers stretches of unimaginable serenity. The fragmentation of contemporary life into ever-shorter temporal intervals has turned hectic distraction into a default mode of daily experience. Stranger Love offers an opportunity to dwell within a different temporality, in which attention is both dilated and focused. *** The structure of Stranger Love Structurally inspired by Plato’s Symposium, Stranger Love is divided into three acts, each one presenting a wider perspective than the last.

  • The 2021 Guide
    FestivalsThe 2021 Guide April 2021 Editor’s Note Spring is in the air, vaccinations are in (many) arms, and our hardy crop of mountain, lakeside, and pastorally sited music-makers appear to be in major recovery mode from a very long, dark year. Our 2021 Festival Guide lists 100-plus entries, some still in the throes of program planning, others with their schedules nailed down, one or two strictly online, and most a combination of all of the above. We’ve asked each about their COVID-19 safety protocols, along with their usual dates, places, artists, and assorted platforms. Many are equipped to head outside: Aspen Music Festival, Tanglewood, and Caramoor Music Center already have outdoor venues. Those that don’t are finding them: Central City Opera Festival is taking Carousel and Rigoletto to a nearby Garden Center and staging Dido & Aeneas in its backyard; the Bay Chamber Concerts Screen Door Festival is headed to the Camden (ME) Amphitheater. Still others are busy constructing their own pavilions: “Glimmerglass on the Grass” is one, with 90-minute re- imagined performances of The Magic Flute, Il Trovatore, and the premiere of The Passion of Mary Cardwell Dawson. The Virginia Arts Festival has also built a new open-air facility called the Bank Street Stage, a large tent area with pod seating options. Repertoire range is as broad as ever, with the Cabrillo Festival priding itself on being “America’s longest-running festival of new orchestral music”; Bang on a Can will make as much avant-garde noise as humanly possible with its “Loud Weekend” at Mass MOCA and its composer trainings later in the summer.

  • Joana Carneiro and Berkeley Symphony Present a World Premiere by Dylan Mattingly Shai Wosner Features As Soloist in Ligeti’S Piano Concerto December 6
    JOANA CARNEIRO AND BERKELEY SYMPHONY PRESENT A WORLD PREMIERE BY DYLAN MATTINGLY SHAI WOSNER FEATURES AS SOLOIST IN LIGETI’S PIANO CONCERTO DECEMBER 6 Berkeley, CA – November 7, 2012 – Music Director Joana Carneiro and Berkeley Symphony continue their 2012-13 Season on Thursday, December 6 at 8 PM in Zellerbach Hall with the world premiere of Invisible Skyline by Berkeley native Dylan Mattingly. Berkeley Symphony also welcomes acclaimed pianist Shai Wosner. Praised by NPR’s All Things Considered for his “keen musical mind and deep musical soul,” Wosner will perform as soloist in Ligeti’s Concerto for Piano and Orchestra. Robert Schumann’s Symphony No.2 in C Major, Op.61 also features on the program. Berkeley Symphony dedicates the concert to the memory of Alan Farley, who hosted the KALW broadcast of the orchestra’s Zellerbach Hall performances until his passing in October. Dylan Mattingly’s music has been performed around the world by such performers as Berkeley Symphony, the Del Sol String Quartet, Ignat Solzhenitsyn, Soovin Kim, Sarah Cahill, Mary Rowell and Geoffrey Burleson. A multi-talented performer and improviser on cello, bass, piano, guitar and percussion, Mattingly is influenced by the music by Thomas Ades, John Adams, Olivier Messiaen, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and the old American blues and folk field recordings of the Lomaxes. For two years he was the co-director of Formerly Known as Classical, a Bay Area new music ensemble whose young members only play music written in their lifetimes, and is now the co-artistic director and co-founder of Contemporaneous, a New York-based ensemble of young musicians dedicated to performing the most exciting music of the present moment.
