Thorpe Dr. Tod Fitzpatrick, Examination Committee Chair Associate Professor of Voice University of Nevada, Las Vegas John Musto, a contemporary composer based in New York, is known for his vocal, piano, and orchestral compositions. Musto is an active performer, who accompanies his own compositions in performance and on recordings. Several festivals and foundations have commissioned his compositions, many of them vocal works. This document will examine a song set, a solo song and two song cycles by John Musto, which represent the composer's developing vocal compositional style from beginning to present. Equally informed by classical and jazz techniques, his style is comprised of popular idioms, ambiguous key structures, irregular rhythms and meters, unpredictable intervallic movements, and large vocal ranges. Two by Frost, "Triolet," Quiet Songs, and Dove Sta Amore..., provide the material for my study of John Musto's compositional style. Musto's first set of songs, Two by Frost, was composed in 1982 and published in 1987; and "Triolet," a solo song with poetry by Eugene O'Neill, was published in 1987. The cycle, Quiet Songs, published in 1991, was iii commissioned by the New York Festival of Song and premiered in 1990 by soprano Amy Burton and pianist Steven Blier. As a result of winning the Concert Artists Guild International Competition in 1991, soprano Lauren Wagner commissioned John Musto to compose Dove StaAmore... for soprano and piano. The song cycle was first composed for voice and piano, rescored for voice and orchestra and premiered by the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra in Jacksonville, Florida on March 2, 1996. The orchestral version was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Music in 1997. Dove StaAmore... was published in 1998 in a piano/vocal format. John Musto, Amy Burton, Steven Blier and members of the New York Festival of Song gave extensive interviews throughout the course of my research and continue to be accommodating and encouraging. Musto's vocal compositions were recently published in one volume with slight revisions to some songs and significant alterations to others. I will discuss each of these modifications in the document. My document will also address Musto's songs through compositional and stylistic analysis, performance practice, vocal and dramatic issues, as well as pedagogical aspects.

    VVioliniolin SYLLABUS / 2013 EDITION SYLLABUS EDITION © Copyright 2013 The Frederick Harris Music Co., Limited All Rights Reserved Message from the President The Royal Conservatory of Music was founded in 1886 with the idea that a single institution could bind the people of a nation together with the common thread of shared musical experience. More than a century later, we continue to build and expand on this vision. Today, The Royal Conservatory is recognized in communities across North America for outstanding service to students, teachers, and parents, as well as strict adherence to high academic standards through a variety of activities—teaching, examining, publishing, research, and community outreach. Our students and teachers benefit from a curriculum based on more than 125 years of commitment to the highest pedagogical objectives. The strength of the curriculum is reinforced by the distinguished College of Examiners—a group of fine musicians and teachers who have been carefully selected from across Canada, the United States, and abroad for their demonstrated skill and professionalism. A rigorous examiner apprenticeship program, combined with regular evaluation procedures, ensures consistency and an examination experience of the highest quality for candidates. As you pursue your studies or teach others, you become not only an important partner with The Royal Conservatory in the development of creativity, discipline, and goal- setting, but also an active participant, experiencing the transcendent qualities of music itself. In a society where our day-to-day lives can become rote and routine, the human need to find self-fulfillment and to engage in creative activity has never been more necessary.

  • Working Towards Inclusion of Gender, Race, and Intersectionality in Piano Curriculum
    She’s Still Sounding: Working Towards Inclusion of Gender, Race, and Intersectionality in Piano Curriculum Olivia Adams A thesis submitted to the University of Ottawa in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MA in Music, Specialization: Feminist and Gender Studies School of Music Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Olivia Adams, Ottawa, Canada, 2021 This thesis addresses the gender-race intersectional inequality in Canadian conservatory piano syllabi revealing that women make up less than 14% of piano music in 20th and 21st Century piano repertoire in Canadian conservatories. By drawing on feminist musicology, critical race, and intersectionality studies, the thesis addresses elements of patriarchy and white supremacy found within specific conservatory repertoire examples. Using the SongData methodology, Adams presents 50 years of data points of gender-race representation in the Royal Conservatory of Music and Conservatory Canada piano syllabi, reporting that white women make up 13.1% of 20th and 21st-century music and Black, Indigenous, and Women of Colour make up less than 0.6%. Piano music by BIPOC women is then leveled and broken down according to conservatory standards and compared to repertoire within existing syllabi. Also included is an original graded syllabus of over 3,000 pieces by women and additional curricular resources for the piano studio.
