Doctoral Dissertations. 580. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/580 ABSTRACT The Rise of the Tenor Voice in the Late Eighteenth Century: Mozart’s Opera and Concert Arias Joshua Michael May University of Connecticut, 2014 W. A. Mozart’s opera and concert arias for tenor are among the first music written specifically for this voice type as it is understood today, and they form an essential pillar of the pedagogy and repertoire for the modern tenor voice. Yet while the opera arias have received a great deal of attention from scholars of the vocal literature, the concert arias have been comparatively overlooked; they are neglected also in relation to their counterparts for soprano, about which a great deal has been written. There has been some pedagogical discussion of the tenor concert arias in relation to the correction of vocal faults, but otherwise they have received little scrutiny. This is surprising, not least because in most cases Mozart’s concert arias were composed for singers with whom he also worked in the opera house, and Mozart always paid close attention to the particular capabilities of the musicians for whom he wrote: these arias offer us unusually intimate insights into how a first-rank composer explored and shaped the potential of the newly-emerging voice type of the modern tenor voice. -

2020 SEA- This year. This season. This orchestra. This music director. Our This performance. This artist. World This moment. This breath. This breath. 2021 SON This breath. Don’t blink. ThePhiladelphiaOrchestra MUSIC DIRECTOR YANNICK NÉZET-SÉGUIN our world Ours is a world divided. And yet, night after night, live music brings audiences together, gifting them with a shared experience. This season, Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra invite you to experience the transformative power of fellowship through a bold exploration of sound. 2 2020–21 Season 3 “For me, music is more than an art form. It’s an artistic force connecting us to each other and to the world around us. I love that our concerts create a space for people to gather as a community—to explore and experience an incredible spectrum of music. Sometimes, we spend an evening in the concert hall together, and it’s simply some hours of joy and beauty. Other times there may be an additional purpose, music in dialogue with an issue or an idea, maybe historic or current, or even a thought that is still not fully formed in our minds and hearts. What’s wonderful is that music gives voice to ideas and feelings that words alone do not; it touches all aspects of our being. Music inspires us to reflect deeply, and music brings us great joy, and so much more. In the end, music connects us more deeply to Our World NOW.” —Yannick Nézet-Séguin 4 2020–21 Season 5 philorch.org / 215.893.1955 6A Thursday Yannick Leads Return to Brahms and Ravel Favorites the Academy Garrick Ohlsson Thursday, October 1 / 7:30 PM Thursday, January 21 / 7:30 PM Thursday, March 25 / 7:30 PM Academy of Music, Philadelphia Yannick Nézet-Séguin Conductor Michael Tilson Thomas Conductor Lisa Batiashvili Violin Yannick Nézet-Séguin Conductor Garrick Ohlsson Piano Hai-Ye Ni Cello Westminster Symphonic Choir Ravel Le Tombeau de Couperin Joe Miller Director Szymanowski Violin Concerto No. -

From the Editor Contact Elisabeth at [email protected]
British Flute Society @BritishFluteSoc on Facebook @TheFluteEditor From the Editor Contact Elisabeth at [email protected] s December arrives, members of the British Flute Society can reflect on another successful year. In 2013, we have been privileged to enjoy exceptional recitals from our various Premier Flautists; our annual competitions continue to grow in both popularity and attainment, and there has been a growing involvement from Aour regional representatives, many of whom have organised local events. We are, as always, greatly indebted to many people: artists, trade specialists, and flute-loving volunteers, all of whom have made the events of the past year possible. In 2014 the BFS-RAM Premier Flautist recital series will continue, starting with the acclaimed duo of Andy Findon and Geoff Eales who will perform theirDancing Flute programme at the Duke’s Hall, Royal Academy of Music, on 16 February. Most excitingly, planning for the Convention is also now well under way, thanks to the hard work of Convention Director Carla Rees, and this issue unveils a preview of some of the artists who will be joining us in Warwick in August next year. Finally, on a personal note, I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to PAN over the past year. Without the generous commitment of time and expertise freely given by contributors and reviewers from around the world, this magazine could not exist. I am very grateful for your help and your flute- playing friendship. I hope you enjoy the December edition of PAN. Elisabeth Hobbs Editor December -
