Price Deloss Schertz Beth Seavers A native of Altoona, Pennsylvania, John R. Rodland earned his Master’s Degree in Sacred Music, summa cum laude, from Union Theological Seminary in New York City. After service to the First Presbyterian Church in Rutherford, New Jersey, he returned to Union Seminary for his Master’s of Divinity and was ordained in 1980. He and his wife, Joanne Harris Rodland, shared in the direction of a vast music program at the West Side Presbyterian Church in Ridgewood, New Jersey, until his untimely death in October 1989. In memory and celebration of John's life and service, the John R. Rodland Memorial Scholarship Fund was established by the Northern New Jersey Chapter of the American Guild of Organists to financially assist organ students at any age level who exhibit talent and interest in the study of music as utilized in religious services of any type, and whose continuance in such study is hindered by lack of funds. Dr. Catherine Rodland, whose playing has been described as "transcendent" (The American Organist), is Artist in Residence at St. Olaf College. A 1987 St. Olaf graduate, she received both the MM and DMA from Eastman School of Music. She is a prizewinner in numerous international competitions and concertizes extensively throughout North America and western Europe. At St. Olaf, Dr. Rodland teaches a full studio of organ students, in addition to performing regularly. She has presented master classes on Baroque performance practice and has been a regular part of the Belvedere Chamber Music Festival in Memphis, TN which features yearly premieres and performances of music of living composers. Kammermusik No. 7 – Paul Hindemith (1895-1963) was a theorist, teacher, violist, and composer who is regarded by many as the foremost German composer of his generation and one of the most central figures in music between the First and Second World Wars. The chamber music works are among Hindemith's most successful instrumental works of the 1920s. But the title is misleading. The individual pieces actually have concertante soloistic features instead of submitting to chamber music traditions and some of them are unusual. Kammermusik #7 focuses on the organ and is in of itself more of a concerto. Throughout the work the listener experiences incisive rhythmic articulation and clear delineation of line that allows the music’s essential vitality to come through with the greatest possible impact. Hindemith’s organ writing is altogether a splendid continuation of tradition though his bracing combination of organ and chamber ensemble retains its novelty. Chorale Prelude: So Pure the Star – Vincent Persichetti (1915-1987). There have been few more universally admired twentieth-century American composers than Vincent Persichetti. His contributions have enriched the entire musical literature and his influence as a performer and teacher is immeasurable. He is still revered as a teacher par excellence and a highly lucid theorist. In both capacities his great artistry was ever clear and impressive, providing an example of dynamic leadership for those who encountered his genius. Written in 1963, this rather brief work is one of Persichetti’s more obscure pieces. Originally commissioned by the Duke University Band, it treats an original chorale melody with contemporary harmonies resulting in a hauntingly beautiful, lyrical piece. Polka and Fugue from the opera “Schwanda, the Bagpiper” – Jaromir Weinberger (1896-1967) is an American composer of Czech birth. Born in Prague, Weinberger’s life was steeped in music and folk traditions that influenced his lifetime. He studied at both the Prague and Leipzig Conservatories before fleeing to New York to avoid the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1939. Although it was a sensation throughout Europe after its introduction in 1927, Weinberger’s opera Schwanda, the Bagpiper is seldom performed today. What has endured is Polka and Fugue, a concert piece derived from the score that is a perennial favorite in the repertoire of orchestras and bands alike. Combining tuneful Czech folk songs with complex rhythms and countermelodies, it is no less than a joyous, exuberant musical adventure. Program Notes compiled by Marcie Phelan PROGRAM NOTES Dr. Christian Wilhjelm, conductor, professional musician and educator, has been the Ridgewood Concert Band’s Crown Imperial - A Coronation March – William Walton (1902-1983) was Musical Director since it was founded in 1983.

He regularly conducts the metropolitan subsequently performed at the coronation of the current reigning monarch area’s leading professional ensembles such as the Norwalk Elizabeth II in 1953.

  • FREDERICK FENNELL and the EASTMAN WIND ENSEMBLE: the Transformation of American Wind Music Through Instrumentation and Repertoire
    FREDERICK FENNELL AND THE EASTMAN WIND ENSEMBLE: The Transformation of American Wind Music Through Instrumentation and Repertoire Jacob Edward Caines Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Master of Arts degree in Musicology School Of Music Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Jacob Edward Caines, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 i Abstract The Eastman Wind Ensemble is known as the pioneer ensemble of modern wind music in North America and abroad. Its founder and conductor, Frederick Fennell, was instrumental in facilitating the creation and performance of a large number of new works written for the specific instrumentation of the wind ensemble. Created in 1952, the EWE developed a new one-to-a-part instrumentation that could be varied based on the wishes of the composer. This change in instrumentation allowed for many more compositional choices when composing. The instrumentation was a dramatic shift from the densely populated ensembles that were standard in North America by 1952. The information on the EWE and Fennell is available at the Eastman School of Music’s Ruth Watanabe Archive. By comparing the repertory and instrumentation of the Eastman ensembles with other contemporary ensembles, Fennell’s revolutionary ideas are shown to be unique in the wind music community. Key Words - EWE (Eastman Wind Ensemble) - ESB (Eastman Symphony Band) - Vernacular - Cultivated - Wind Band - Wind Ensemble - Frederick Fennell - Repertoire i Acknowledgements This thesis could not have been completed without the support of many people. Firstly, my advisor, Prof. Christopher Moore. Without his constant guidance, and patience, this document would have been impossible to complete.

The overall qualities shared between music and architecture can help inspire each other. Rhythm has much to do with pattern. Patterns can be found in music through repetition and in architecture through shapes or structural elements. Texture in music involves the layering of different sounds and rhythms. In architecture, texture can be obtained through the combination of different materials and how they interact with each other. Harmony in music creates balance, and in architecture, harmony is created through the successful use of different materials or designs that become one unified space. Proportion in music relates to the balance of the compositional form while proportion in architecture relates to materials utilized to create a balance, and thus a harmonized architectural setting.
