  • The New York Concert Singers

    The New York Concert Singers

    THE MASK New World Records 80547 New York Concert Singers Virgil Thomson (1896–1990) led a double life—as a composer and a critic. Besides bringing a highly original and typically American sensibility to his musical works, he was for many years a respected voice of high musical taste as chief music critic for the New York Herald Tribune. When he wrote that he admired the music of Erik Satie for its "consequence, quietude, precision, acuteness of auditory observation, gentleness, sincerity, and directness of statement," he might have been describing his own personality as a composer. Despite Thomson's years of study in Paris and musical collaborations with European intellectuals, the influence of nineteenth-century American church and popular music gives this Missouri-born composer's music a decidedly Midwestern accent. Thomas Campion (1567–1620) is one of the great poets of the English language, and he set his own poetry to music in dozens of solo songs accompanied by lute. In the original, solo version of "Four Songs to Poems by Thomas Campion" (composed in the summer of 1951), Virgil Thomson re- created the sound-world of the Elizabethan lute song with a voice and harp; in the choral arrangement, there is also something of the sensuous blending of voices that one hears in an Elizabethan consort of viols. Both versions make subtle use of an obbligato clarinet and viola— these two instruments, which sound in the same pitch range as the human voice, provide "other voices" of melodic commentary; they also recede and blend with the harp to enhance the lute effect.

It develops skill, while fostering understanding; it provides information and preserves meaning; it supplies facts and seeks knowledge. Such a study insures respectforthe legacy of tradition and yet fosters the desire for the adventure of discovery. Two ingredients are essential to an institution dedicated to these aims: A professionally active faculty capable of serving as mentor and exemplar and a program of study to which the faculty is totally committed. These are abundantly represented at the Philadelphia Musical Academy. This is not to say that professional development is the only goal of the Academy.

Taylor, M.M. The University of Texas at Austin, 2017 SUPERVISORS: Charles Carson, Andrew Dell’Antonio This master’s report will revisit Saidiya Hartman’s account of how to 1) combat violence found in the archives and 2) mitigate silences imposed on marginalized bodies in her essay, “Venus in II Acts.” This work contributes to public musicology because it impacts the way scholars interact with musicians who are historically othered. Through attention to the lives and works of Philippa Schuyler, Hazel Scott and Nina Simone, I ask critical questions like how can we view these pianists’ lives in a way that does not reinforce canonic violence. I simultaneously weave my personal narrative into this discussion as I find myself occupying the spaces of researcher, performer and all the interstices found within the classical piano tradition. Through the work of Hartman, as well as Julia J. Chybowski, Karen Chilton and Elizabeth Taylor Greenfield, I argue that Venus is a pianist like Schuyler, Scott and Simone whose usefulness is often tied to diversity within classical music's canon.
