Roger Sametz
Press Quotes Ives Concord Symphony & Copland Organ Symphony Recording Released February 8, 2011 “To listen to "A Concord Symphony" - Charles Ives' pathbreaking "Concord" Sonata, brilliantly orchestrated by the late Henry Brant - is to feel an exhilarating sense of discovery and dramatic vigor, an explosive dynamism that emanates from all the participants. Ives' music, first of all, retains its distinctive combination of pugnacious bluster and sentimental lyricism in this new guise, while adding a layer of world-embracing ambition that is unique to the symphonic tradition. Brant's orchestral palette is never less than ingenious, but there's a sense of Promethean struggle audible in his efforts that fits perfectly with Ives' late-Romantic mind-set. Finally, Thomas and the orchestra, recorded live in Davies Symphony Hall, convey every bit of the score's boisterous vitality in a performance of magnificent virtuosity - it's a landmark achievement. Copland's Organ Symphony, with soloist Paul Jacobs, also gets a majestic reading. ” -Joshua Kosman, San Francisco Chronicle “There is no finer conductor of Ives or Copland today than Michael Tilson Thomas, and it's so fulfilling to see him doing what he does best on the San Francisco Symphony's own label… Davies Symphony Hall has a spectacular organ that's very well captured by the engineers. Paul Jacobs plays beautifully; his instrument "fits" into the general sonic framework very naturally, while Thomas and the orchestra play as if to the manner born. A great disc.” - David Hurwitz, Classics Today.com Regarding Copland’s Organ Symphony: “…Paul Jacobs faultlessly exploits this fine score. -
Connecting Through Music
CONNECTING THROUGH MUSIC Public Radio Music Stations Serve Audiences, Artists & Communities Across America Spring 2019 New Orleans jazz musician Roderick Paulin and his band perform live on WWOZ’s Traditional Jazz with Leslie Cooper. Photo credit: Michael E. McAndrew CONNECTING THROUGH MUSIC ABOUT THE noncomMUSIC ALLIANCE The noncomMUSIC Alliance, which produced this report, celebrates noncommercial, nonprofit, local public radio’s role in connecting artists with the communities that enjoy and support their music. Established in 2018, the Alliance’s primary aim is to bring diverse noncommercial music constituencies together, amplify their voices, and inform others – particularly public policymakers – about the need to support public radio’s role in local communities across the United States. As this report describes more fully, the noncomMUSIC Alliance highlights five values public radio music stations share: Discovery Public radio is a space where listeners can find vast troves of new American music, classical traditions, and contemporary music from around the world. Curation Public radio music stations are one-of-a-kind community tastemakers that reflect and shape listeners’ love of music. Preservation Public radio stations provide the airtime and live performances that sustain and enable historic and regional music traditions, and develop audiences for American genres like jazz, bluegrass, and zydeco. Performance Public radio is a driving force in the local music scene, connecting musicians and listeners on air, on stage, online, on video, and on-the-go. Community Locally operated and community-based, public radio stations tailor their programming and services to meet community needs. noncomMUSIC Alliance Leadership EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: Michael Riksen, Vice President, Policy & Representation, NPR ADVISORY COUNCIL: Brenda Barnes, CEO, KING FM • Shannon Connolly, Senior Vice President, Music, NYPR & General Manager, WQXR • Abby Goldstein, General Manager, WYEP • Val Hoeppner, Executive Director, WMOT • Nick Kereakos, Sr. -

Handel' S Organ Concerto S Reconsidered
Handel' s Organ ConcertoConcertos s Reconsidered By NIELS KARL NIELSEN Due to the solid foundatiansfoundations provided by the research carried out by Chrysan der, W. Dean, O. E. Deutsch, J. P. Larsen, W. C. Smith and others the study of Randel'sHandel's works has been rendered much easier to-day than it was a mere twenty years ago; this, however, does not mean that all the problems have been solved. On the contrary, many still await exhaustive treatment. Whereas a vast number of books have been written ab out Randel'sHandel's vocal compositions, and the Oratorios in particular, a detailed study of his Organ Concertos, based on the autograph scores and other contemporary sources has not yet been made. Ehrlinger's dissertation 1 contains many valuable observa tions; nevertheless its importance is reduced considerably by the faetfact that he did not incorporate the original sources in his research. Accordingly, in the present study I intend to remedy this gap in our knowl edge of RandelHandel and his work, by discussing problems such as-date of composi tion-sources-original versions-style afof performance, and last but not least, the inevitable question of Randel'sHandel's borrowings. Some of these problems have of course been dealt with before, but I still find it worthwhile to try and collate as much information as possibiepossible about these aspects of Randel'sHandel's wark.work. RandelHandel embarked upon his concertos for organ and orchestra in dose con nection with his efforts to introduce the oratorio as a parallel to the produetionproduction of operas which had dominated his work in London up to the beginning of the 1730's. -
