These outstanding musicians will join with other choristers to form the Distinguished Concerts Singers International, a choir of distinction. Conductor Vance George will lead the performance and will serve as the clinician for the residency. Why the invitation was extended Dr. Jonathan Griffith, Artistic Director and Principal Conductor for DCINY states: “The American International School students and their director received this invitation because of the quality and high level of musicianship demonstrated by the singers on a previous performance of ‘O Fortuna’ from ‘Carmina Burana’. It is quite an honor just to be invited to perform in New York. These wonderful musicians not only represent a high quality of music and education, but they also become ambassadors for the entire community. This is an event of extreme pride for everybody and deserving of the community’s recognition and support.” The singers will spend 5 days and 4 nights in New York City in preparation for their concert. “The singers will spend approximately 9-10 hours in rehearsals over the 5 day residency.” says Griffith.

  • Lineage Curated by Julia Bullock Soundbox
    LINEAGE CURATED BY JULIA BULLOCK SOUNDBOX 1 julia bullock on lineage “I’ve found that musicians often share a lot about the various influences in their lives— whether they be historical, political, philosophical, personal, or based on other mediums of art. They let diverse influences not only impact their work, but find ways to let them register explicitly. It’s like musicians are hyper conscious of their lineage—they honor it and value it. So, as I continue to follow along the path and legacy of artists that came before me, lineage has become increasingly important—it’s a part of knowing from where I originated and letting that inform where I envision myself going. The musicians on this SoundBox program could not make music all together in one place, or even at one time, but the very nature of this program—which links material that spans across almost 900 years—captures an audio and visual snapshot of how lineage can inform, influence, impact, and express itself in a musical context.” 2 Esa-Pekka Salonen SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY MUSIC DIRECTOR San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen has, through his many high-profile conducting roles and work as a leading composer, shaped a unique vision for the present and future of the contemporary symphony orchestra. Salonen is currently the Principal Conductor & Artistic Advisor for London’s Philharmonia Orchestra and is Artist in Association at the Finnish National Opera and Ballet. He is a member of the faculty of the Colburn School in Los Angeles, where he developed and directs the pre-professional Negaunee Conducting Program.

  • San Francisco Symphony Chorus Ragnar Bohlin, Director
    SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY CHORUS RAGNAR BOHLIN, DIRECTOR One of America’s most distinguished choruses, the 152-member San Francisco Symphony Chorus—which celebrated its 40th anniversary during the 2013-14 season—is known for its precision, power, and versatility. Led by Chorus Director Ragnar Bohlin, the Chorus performs more than 26 concerts each season and is comprised of 32 professional and 120 volunteer members. San Francisco Chronicle classical music critic Joshua Kosman recently praised the Chorus for its “welcomed blend of robust vigor and precisely shaded transparency.” Most recently, the SFS Chorus can be heard along with MTT and the SF Symphony on the November 2015 SFS Media release of Beethoven’s Mass in C major. Prior to that, members of the chorus were featured on the Symphony’s complete concert recording of Bernstein’s score for West Side Story, released in June 2014 and nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. Performances with the San Francisco Symphony in the 2017–18 season include Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms in September, Ives’ Psalm 90 and Symphony No. 4 in November, and Bernstein’s Candide in January, all conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas. In December, Ragnar Bohlin conducts the SF Symphony and Chorus in performances of Handel’s Messiah. Other appearances during the year include members of the Chorus joining the Orchestra in a live accompaniment to Miloš Forman’s Amadeus, and for the Symphony’s Oktoberfest celebration. In May 2018, the Chorus presents a solo concert, performing J.S. Bach’s Magnificat. To close out the season, the SFS Chorus joins the Symphony in June for the final two concert programs of the season, both conducted by MTT—semi-staged performances of Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov and Mahler’s Symphony No.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-82108-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Conducting Edited by José Antonio Bowen Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to Conducting In this wide-ranging inside view of the history and practice of conducting, analysis and advice come directly from working conductors, including Sir Charles Mackerras on opera, Bramwell Tovey on being an artistic director, Martyn Brabbins on modern music, Leon Botstein on programming, and Vance George on choral conducting, and from those who work closely with conductors: a leading violinist describes working as a soloist with Stokowski, Ormandy, and Barbirolli, while Solti and Abbado’s studio producer explains orchestral recording, and one of the world’s most powerful managers tells all. The book includes advice on how to conduct different types of groups (choral, opera, symphony, early music) and provides a substantial history of conducting as a study of national traditions. It is an unusually honest book about a secretive industry, and managers, artistic directors, soloists, players, and conductors openly discuss their different perspectives for the first time. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-82108-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Conducting Edited by José Antonio Bowen Frontmatter More information © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-82108-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Conducting Edited by José Antonio Bowen Frontmatter
