His highly collaborative style, deeply-rooted musical curiosity, and boundless enthusiasm, paired with a fresh approach to orchestral programming, have been heralded by critics and audiences alike. The New York Times has called Yannick “phenomenal,” adding that under his baton “the ensemble … has never sounded better.” In his first season he took the Orchestra to new musical heights. His second builds on that momentum with highlights that include a Philadelphia Commissions Micro-Festival, for which three leading composers have been commissioned to write solo works for three of the Orchestra’s principal players; the next installment in his multi-season focus on requiems with Fauré’s Requiem; and a unique, theatrically-staged presentation of Strauss’s revolutionary opera Salome, a first-ever co-production with Opera Philadelphia. Yannick has established himself as a musical leader of the highest caliber and one of the most exciting talents of his generation. Since 2008 he has been music director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic and principal guest conductor of the London Philharmonic, and since 2000 artistic director and principal conductor of Montreal’s Orchestre Métropolitain. In addition he becomes the first ever mentor conductor of the Curtis Institute of Music’s conducting fellows program in the fall of 2013. He has made wildly successful appearances with the world’s most revered ensembles, and has conducted critically acclaimed performances at many of the leading opera houses. Yannick Nézet-Séguin and Deutsche Grammophon (DG) enjoy a long-term collaboration. Under his leadership the Orchestra returns to recording with a newly-released CD on that label of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring and Leopold Stokowski transcriptions. Yannick continues a fruitful recording relationship with the Rotterdam Philharmonic for DG, BIS, and EMI/Virgin; the London Philharmonic for the LPO label; and the Orchestre Métropolitain for ATMA Classique. A native of Montreal, Yannick Nézet-Séguin studied at that city’s Conservatory of Music and continued lessons with renowned conductor Carlo Maria Giulini and with Joseph Flummerfelt at Westminster Choir College. Among Yannick’s honors are an appointment as Companion of the Order of Canada, one of the country’s highest civilian honors; a Royal Philharmonic Society Award; Canada’s National Arts Centre Award; the Prix Denise- Pelletier, the highest distinction for the arts in Quebec, awarded by the Quebec government; and an honorary doctorate by the University of Quebec in Montreal.

  • Au Printemps 1950 Poulenc Fit La Rencontre Inopinée D'un Nouvel
    Stefania Franceschini est venue présenter aux membres de l’Association des amis de Francis Poulenc lors de la réunion de l’assemblée générale du 12 mars 2017 le premier ouvrage paru en Italie sur le musicien français qui avait tellement aimé l’Italie. Publié en avril 2014 aux Éditions Zecchini, cet ouvrage de 320 pages est modestement appelé « une biographie », alors qu’il propose aussi une partie très instructive de présentation des œuvres. Ayant feuilleté le livre à l’issue de la réunion, je me suis rendu compte assez vite qu’il contenait des textes critiques et des documents journalistiques de grand intérêt absolument inconnus des livres récemment consacrés à Francis Poulenc en France. Stefania a accepté mon offre de traduire le chapitre le plus spécifiquement italien : Les Dialogues des carmélites. J’ai ajouté à ce chapitre des extraits des suivants où se poursuivait l’histoire d’amour entre le plus français des musiciens et la patrie de la vocalità. Je connaissais l’allitération traduttore traditore. J’ai donc eu beaucoup de scrupules d’autant plus que pour quantité de mots italiens l’équivalent français ne « passe » pas toujours. Claude CARÉ, traditore suo malgrado Au printemps 1950 Poulenc fit la rencontre inopinée d’un nouvel amant, Lucien Roubert, un représentant de commerce, né à Lyon en 1908 qui vivait à Marseille. Commença alors une relation intense et tumultueuse et Poulenc confessa que, de même que Raymond Destouches avait été le secret de la période des Mamelles et de Figure humaine, Lucien fut celui de la période du Stabat et des Carmélites.

  • Cohesion of Composer and Singer: the Female Singers of Poulenc
    COHESION OF COMPOSER AND SINGER: THE FEMALE SINGERS OF POULENC DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan Joanne Musselman, B.M., M.M. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Document Committee: J. Robin Rice, Adviser Approved by: Hilary Apfelstadt Wayne Redenbarger ________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Music Copyright by Susan Joanne Musselman 2007 ABSTRACT Every artist’s works spring from an aspiring catalyst. One’s muses can range from a beloved city to a spectacular piece of music, or even a favorite time of year. Francis Poulenc’s inspiration for song-writing came from the high level of intimacy he had with his close friends. They provided the stimulation and encouragement needed for a lifetime of composition. There is a substantial amount of information about Francis Poulenc’s life and works available. We are fortunate to have access to his own writings, including a diary of his songs, an in-depth interview with a close friend, and a large collection of his correspondence with friends, fellow composers, and his singers. It is through these documents that we not only glean knowledge of this great composer, but also catch a glimpse of the musical accuracy Poulenc so desired in the performance of his songs. A certain amount of scandal surrounded Poulenc during his lifetime and even well after his passing. Many rumors existed involving his homosexuality and his relationships with other male musicians, as well as the possible fathering of a daughter. The primary goal of this document is not to unearth any hidden innuendos regarding his personal life, however, but to humanize the relationships that Poulenc had with so many of his singers.

Although the music of composers like Olivier Messiaen and Pierre See table of contents Boulez did not elicit a profound change on the substance of Poulenc’s compositional language, he did grow to the realization that the style he had embraced during the interwar period—one generally described as Publisher(s) light-hearted and ironic—had become largely out of sync with new critical trends and concerns. Poulenc’s self-conscious aim to assert a personal form of Canadian University Music Society / Société de musique des universités “seriousness” in his works—one constructed with recourse to religiosity, canadiennes stylistic homogeneity and the ostensibly concomitant values of sincerity and authenticity—formed the backbone of a new tone and persona that emerged ISSN following the war and which inflected his entire body of work up to his death in 1963. Poulenc’s desire to reinvent himself during this period forces us to 1911-0146 (print) re-examine his works, writings, and elements of his biography for the way in 1918-512X (digital) which they were constructed as a means of facilitating the discursive emergence of this new, more “serious,” persona.
