Two of the ensemble’s recordings, Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem and A Seraphic Fire Christmas, were nominated for 2012 GRAMMY® Awards, making Seraphic Fire the only choral ensemble in North or South America to be nominated that year and the only classical ensemble in the world to be nominated for two separate projects . Seraphic Fire continues to put South Florida at the center of artistic innovation during its 2017 - 2018 Season through masterworks of cultural significance like Brahms’ timelessLiebeslieder Waltzes, as well as through high-quality under-performed music like David Lang’s the little match girl passion . Guest appearances include collaborations with Lorelei Ensemble Artistic Director Beth Willer and Boston’s Back Bay Chorale Music Director Scott Allen Jarrett . Recognized for its “spellbinding, hypnotic” sound (South Florida Classical Review), Seraphic Fire’s artistic accomplishments have also translated to orchestral collaborations with The Cleveland Orchestra and New World Symphony, and chart-topping album sales . The ensemble’s September 2014 release, Reincarnations: A Century of American Choral Music, soared to No .6 on the Billboard Traditional Classical Chart and the ensemble’s recording of Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem debuted at No .7 on the Billboard Traditional Classical Chart . PATRICK DUPRÉ QUIGLEY Proclaimed “extraordinary” (Gramophone), “authoritative” (Philadelphia Inquirer), “inspirational” (Chicago Sun-Times), and displaying “transformative brilliance” (New York Lucid Culture), Patrick Dupré Quigley has established himself as an exemplary conductor, creative programmer, and lauded arts entrepreneur whose skills as a musician transcend traditional genre boundaries . Founder and Artistic Director of Seraphic Fire, Quigley receives rave reviews for his work with the music of contemporary American composers; is celebrated for his exacting, historically informed interpretations of Classical and Baroque repertoire; and was honored with a GRAMMY® Award nomination for his recording of Brahms’ Romantic masterpiece Ein Deutsches Requiem. This season, Quigley takes the podium at The Cleveland Orchestra with Mozart, Utah Symphony with Haydn, and Seraphic Fire with masterworks of Bach, Monteverdi, Pärt, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning David Lang . In 2016 - 2017, Quigley appeared with San Francisco Symphony, The Cleveland Orchestra, and Grand Rapids Symphony . Previous guest conducting engagements include appearances with New World Symphony, Mobile Symphony, Naples Philharmonic, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, and San Antonio Symphony .

This leads to a substandard realization of the music. Contrarily, a musician should integrate research with the learning process as to enhance the comprehensive understanding of the piece, which ultimately results in a high level of performance. This idea is important for the complex and extensive musical repertoire of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

He was an only child, and came from a poor family. But he didn't want to stay and do ordinary work in Odense. He loved singing, storytelling, and the theatre. So at 14, he went to look for more interesting work in Copenhagen. There, the Danish King helped to pay for his education, and he became a writer. Hans Christian Andersen wrote poems, novels, and travel books, but he is most famous today for his many wonderful children's stories. He died in 1875, at a friend's house near Copenhagen, after a bad fall.

  • Suffering and Social Conscience in the Passion Genre from JS Bach's
    Messiahs and Pariahs: Suffering and Social Conscience in the Passion Genre from J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion (1727) to David Lang’s the little match girl passion (2007) Johann Jacob Van Niekerk A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Giselle Wyers, Chair Geoffrey Boers Shannon Dudley Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Music ©Copyright 2014 Johann Jacob Van Niekerk University of Washington Abstract Messiahs and Pariahs: Suffering and Social Conscience in the Passion Genre from J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion (1727) to David Lang’s the little match girl passion (2007) Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Giselle Wyers Associate Professor of Choral Music and Voice The themes of suffering and social conscience permeate the history of the sung passion genre: composers have strived for centuries to depict Christ’s suffering and the injustice of his final days. During the past eighty years, the definition of the genre has expanded to include secular protagonists, veiled and not-so-veiled socio- political commentary and increased discussion of suffering and social conscience as socially relevant themes. This dissertation primarily investigates David Lang’s Pulitzer award winning the little match girl passion, premiered in 2007. David Lang’s setting of Danish author and poet Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Match Girl” interspersed with text from the chorales of Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. Matthew Passion (1727) has since been performed by several ensembles in the United States and abroad, where it has evoked emotionally visceral reactions from audiences and critics alike.

  • The Little Match Girl
    The Little Match Girl Strategy: Dyads (pairs) Objectives: 1. The students will learn about a Danish author. 2. The students will learn a famous Western story. 3. The students will practice using their listening skills as the Teacher tells the story. 4. Students will be encouraged to practice their English by memorizing “chunks of English” so that they will begin to have the language in their minds and therefore able to use it more efficiently and correctly in daily encounters. 5. The students will learn correct pronunciation. 6. The students will develop poise and confidence by reciting the story before the class. 7. The students will gain in fluency. 8. The students will increase their vocabulary. ESL Objectives: Pronunciation - result of producing the sounds of speech, including articulation, stress, and intonation, often with reference to the English standard of correctness or acceptability. Pronunciation drills on the following sounds are included: /th/ /l/ /v/ /w/ /short e/ Diction - usually implies a high level of usage; it refers chiefly to the choice of words and their arrangement. This is encouraged when the students make substitutions, vary their tales, or create their own skits. We want to encourage the students to use their English! Vocabulary - learning new words of a foreign language. This includes idiomatic expressions. Fluency - able to speak smoothly, easily, gracefully, and readily. All ESL methods seek to increase fluency. Intonation - the sound pattern of phrases and sentences produced by pitch variation in the voice which distinguishes kinds of sentences of different language cultures. Jazz chants are for the purpose of working on intonation.

  • Story Time by Alex Ross the New Yorker April 28, 2014
    Story Time by Alex Ross The New Yorker April 28, 2014 Zankel Hall, the coolly futuristic space beneath the main auditorium of Carnegie Hall, opened a decade ago, amid what turned out to be a golden age of adventurous programming at the Carnegie complex. John Adams oversaw a crazy­quilt festival; far­seeing composers like Frederic Rzewski and Meredith Monk shared space with Youssou N’Dour and Ustad Vilayat Khan; John Cage and Morton Feldman, musical leaders of the heroic mid­century generation that also produced Abstract Expressionism, were celebrated more than five decades after their first meeting, which took place in the Carnegie lobby, as both men fled a performance of Rachmaninoff’s “Symphonic Dances.” These days, Carnegie follows a more conservative line: Rachmaninoff takes precedence over Cage and Feldman. But Zankel remains a welcoming space for wayward artists, and this month it will host “Collected Stories,” a six­concert series curated by the Pulitzer Prize­winning composer David Lang, who occupies the Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair at Carnegie. Lang explores the various ways in which music suggests a narrative: each program is tagged with a topic (“hero,” “spirit,” “love/loss,” “travel,” “(post)folk,” “memoir”), and yet each presents a sharp internal contrast, with seemingly disparate styles juxtaposed. The tone is set by the first event, at which Benjamin Bagby’s bardic recitation of “Beowulf” will give way to the barbaric yawps of Harry Partch, who found an epic breadth in nineteen­thirties hobo culture. In later concerts, audiences will hear “Passio,” Arvo Pärt’s impassive meditation on the Crucifixion of Christ; a spell of Tuvan throat­singing; folk­tinged pieces by Julia Wolfe, Nico Muhly, and Donnacha Dennehy; and, in a detour back into the Romantic mainstream, Liszt’s sprawling pianistic travelogue “Années de Pèlerinage.” Such groups as Alarm Will Sound, Ensemble Signal, and the early­music collective TENET participate; Louis Lortie, in a three­hour marathon, confronts the Liszt.
