  • Interview with Rufus Wainwright
    PRIMA DONNA/RUFUS WAINWRIGHT INTERVIEW WITH RUFUS WAINWRIGHT In 2009, you presented Prima Donna, the opera, a project that grew over time to become first a film, then a visual concert. How was this project born? Rufus Wainwright: I’ve always loved the opera. It’s a form that’s part of my musical culture. When I was about thirteen, a so-called normal child who listened to pop music and had long been immersed in my parents’ folk music, I had a sort of revelation while listening to Verdi’s Requiem with Leontyne Price. I was enthralled. Since then, even though I’ve always known I wanted to be a pop singer, opera has been a sort of secret refuge that has even influenced my own music. I’ve often used its symbolism, its emotions, but also its orchestration in my own compositions, thanks in particular to string instruments. Writing Prima Donna was my way of giving back to opera all that opera gave me. What was the starting point of the libretto? I was about to start working on an opera loosely based on Marguerite Yourcenar’s Memoirs of Hadrien. But I didn’t feel ready to conquer the Roman Empire musically with the tools I had at my disposal! I wasn’t quite ready to write the orchestration I imagined for that project. So I started looking for a subject that wouldn’t have that kind of historical weight, that would be more personal. That’s when I came across the series of interviews Maria Callas gave to Lord Harewood in 1968.

  • Developing and Sustaining Audience Participation for Classical Music in a Regional Australian Community: Facilitators and Constraints of Engagement
    Developing and sustaining audience participation for classical music in a regional Australian community: Facilitators and constraints of engagement Robert James Manley BMus (Hons), LMusA, AMusA, CMusA https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3678-1315 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Music i Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the sociocultural and musical factors that facilitate and constrain audience engagement with classical chamber music in a regional Australian community. Much has been written about sustainability challenges for classical music institutions and practitioners in contemporary society, evidenced by an ageing demographic, declining audience numbers, and changing habits of consumption. Nevertheless, little is known about the phenomenon of chamber music both in regional Australian communities and from a place-based perspective. Adopting these foci, this study investigated the role of chamber music in engaging with community audiences and generating social capital in regional Australia. Seven areas of literature informed this study. The first considered the sociocultural and policy contexts that influence a shifting climate for classical music engagement. The second area outlined social capital as a theoretical framework that illustrates the sociocultural benefits of classical music in communities. The third focused on community chamber music from place-based and idiocultural perspectives. The fourth considered the role of music, career, and community identities as facets of classical music practice in regional Australia, and the fifth further explored shaping factors for music identity in this context. The sixth examined public stakeholder perspectives of classical music, considering literature on the audience experience.

  • El Camino De Verdi Al Verismo: La Gioconda De Ponchielli the Road of Verdi to Verism: La Gioconda De Ponchielli
    Revista AV Notas, Nº8 ISSN: 2529-8577 Diciembre, 2019 EL CAMINO DE VERDI AL VERISMO: LA GIOCONDA DE PONCHIELLI THE ROAD OF VERDI TO VERISM: LA GIOCONDA DE PONCHIELLI Joaquín Piñeiro Blanca Universidad de Cádiz RESUMEN Con Giuseppe Verdi se amplificaron y superaron los límites del Bel Canto representado, fundamentalmente, por Rossini, Bellini y Donizetti. Se abrieron nuevos caminos para la lírica italiana y en la evolución que terminaría derivando en la eclosión del Verismo que se articuló en torno a una nutrida generación de autores como Leoncavallo, Mascagni o Puccini. Entre Verdi y la Giovane Scuola se situaron algunos compositores que constituyeron un puente entre ambos momentos creativos. Entre ellos destacó Amilcare Ponchielli (1834-1886), profesor de algunos de los músicos más destacados del Verismo y autor de una de las óperas más influyentes del momento: La Gioconda (1876-1880), estudiada en este artículo en sus singularidades formales y de contenido que, en varios aspectos, hacen que se adelante al modelo teórico verista. Por otra parte, se estudian también cuáles son los elementos que conserva de los compositores italianos precedentes y las influencias del modelo estético francés, lo que determina que la obra y su compositor sean de complicada clasificación, aunque habitualmente se le identifique incorrectamente con el Verismo. Palabras clave: Ponchielli; Verismo; Giovane Scuola; ópera; La Gioconda; Italia ABSTRACT With Giuseppe Verdi, the boundaries of Bel Canto were amplified and exceeded, mainly represented by Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti. New paths were opened for the Italian lyric and in the evolution that would end up leading to the emergence of Verismo that was articulated around a large generation of authors such as Leoncavallo, Mascagni or Puccini.

  • Origin of a Folded Repeat Protein from an Intrinsically Disordered Ancestor
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Origin of a folded repeat protein from an intrinsically disordered ancestor Hongbo Zhu, Edgardo Sepulveda, Marcus D Hartmann, Manjunatha Kogenaru†, Astrid Ursinus, Eva Sulz, Reinhard Albrecht, Murray Coles, Jo¨ rg Martin, Andrei N Lupas* Department of Protein Evolution, Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology, Tu¨ bingen, Germany Abstract Repetitive proteins are thought to have arisen through the amplification of subdomain- sized peptides. Many of these originated in a non-repetitive context as cofactors of RNA-based replication and catalysis, and required the RNA to assume their active conformation. In search of the origins of one of the most widespread repeat protein families, the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR), we identified several potential homologs of its repeated helical hairpin in non-repetitive proteins, including the putatively ancient ribosomal protein S20 (RPS20), which only becomes structured in the context of the ribosome. We evaluated the ability of the RPS20 hairpin to form a TPR fold by amplification and obtained structures identical to natural TPRs for variants with 2–5 point mutations per repeat. The mutations were neutral in the parent organism, suggesting that they could have been sampled in the course of evolution. TPRs could thus have plausibly arisen by amplification from an ancestral helical hairpin. DOI: 10.7554/eLife.16761.001 *For correspondence: andrei.

  • A Study of Music As an Integral Part
    A Study of Music as an Integral Part of the Spoken Drama in the American Professional Theatre: 1930-1955 By MAY ELIZABETH BURTON A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA August, 1956 PREFACE This is a study of why and how music is integrated with spoken drama in the contemporary American professional theatre. Very little has been written on the subject, so that knowledge of actual practices is limited to those people who are closely associated with commercial theatre-- composers, producers, playwrights, and musicians. There- fore, a summation and analysis of these practices will contribute to the existing body of knowledge about the contemporary American theatre. It is important that a study of the 1930-1955 period be made while it is still contemporary, since analysis at a later date would be hampered by a scarcity of detailed production records and the tendency not to copyright and publish theatre scores. Consequently, any accurate data about the status of music in our theatre must be gathered and re- corded while the people responsible for music integration are available for reference and correspondence. Historically, the period from 1930 to 1^55 is important because it has been marked by numerous fluc- tuations both in society and in the theatre. There are evidences of the theatre's ability to serve as a barometer of social and economic conditions. A comprehension of the ii degree and manner in which music has been a part of the theatre not only will provide a better understanding of the relationship between our specific theatre idiom and society, but suggests the degree to which it differs from that fostered by previous theatre cultures.
