Printed in the U.S.A. WELCOME FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR elcome to the Philharmonic Orchestra of Indianapolis! In 1941, a group of musicians Wand civic leaders created this orchestra to provide new opportunities to hear symphonic music and to provide musicians with the opportunity to perform at a high level of artistic excellence. For nearly 8 decades, the Philharmonic Orchestra has been connecting with audiences in Central Indiana. Symphonic music is a powerful art form with a timeless appeal–new works are added to a staggering repertoire every year. The Philharmonic Orchestra is pleased to premiere new works written by the winners of the Indiana Music Educators Association (IMEA) annual student composition award. This premiere gives the student the opportunity to hear his or her work performed by a professional level orchestra and provides our audience with a new work by one of our own Hoosier students. This year’s concert season begins with one of our two family concerts at the Clowes Auditorium at the Central Library of the Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library (IMPL). We are thrilled by this opportunity to reach downtown audiences with this concert that connects music with stories from the movies and musicals. The second Central Library family concert in March 2019 presents an introduction of music for children of all ages and includes instrument demonstrations! At the Pike Performing Arts Center (PPAC), the October concert reunites alumni of the Philharmonic Orchestra’s Strings and Jazzy Things summer music camp with the orchestra. The November concert focuses on music that was inspired by greatness and speaks to our conscience. The May 2019 concert at PPAC features May Phang, pianist, and celebrates the forces of nature. The annual gospel concert featuring the Philharmonic’s 100-member Symphonic Praise Choir is held each February at PPAC. This year’s concert includes the orchestral work, Harlem Symphony, by James Price Johnson in addition to an exciting repertoire of classic and contemporary gospel and praise music. We also welcome Robert T. Townsend at the new executive producer and conductor of the annual gospel concert. The Philharmonic has a long-standing commitment to educational programs. Each year, the Phil performs “side-by-side” with the Pike school orchestras, providing these students the opportunity to play with established musicians. Each Philharmonic concert is preceded by a “Listen and Learn” discussion lead by the Conductor. These sessions help familiarize audiences with newer works and provide insightful background on favorite classic works. All of this magic is possible due to the thousands of volunteer hours provided by the musicians and choir members to prepare for and perform each concert. We are so fortunate that these gifted musicians have made Central Indiana their home. Dorothy L. Ilgen Executive Director philharmonic orchestra of indianapolis 3 Did You Know?

Last season, we continued the mission of Making Music that Matters in our 77th Season, capitalizing on our legacy of nearly eight decades! As an organization, our educational mission goes on as we continue to learn about orchestral music and share that sonic aesthetic and its dimensions with others. We enjoy our responsibility to take our energy beyond the concert space to the community, engaging with musicians, and community members alike. We want our motto, Making Music that Matters, to come to life in action, connection and commitment! With music of Beethoven, Shostakovich, and Tchaikovsky, we will bring to life monumental works that speak with such significant emotions. And, this year we will celebrate the Twenty-first Anniversary of our Symphonic Praise Choir, that dream of former Maestro Jackson Wiley. Though daunted by the passing of force- of-nature and beloved Symphonic Praise Choir director Para Lee Gale this past spring, we welcome Dr. Robert Townsend along with our indominable Reginald Walters to the podium for that inspired testament of thought, time and talent as it gives music its passion through Symphonic Praise! So, as we connect all these people and features of our organization to our work, we again commit to Making Music that Matters! To do that, we have created additional defining musical category threads that are woven through the fabric of our season to help the audience understand and enjoy the music we present. Series: Symphony 101 We select certain works throughout our season to view in an academic way, taking them apart and putting them back together! Series: Imagination We explore certain works in a different way—when given a story told in music, what does the composer select for us to envision, or how are we left to imagine what the music means? Series: Phringe (Fringe) Festival We introduce a newer musical work to our audience that is outside (hence, on the “fringe” of ) the usual symphonic repertoire and allow our audience to hear it and assess it. Who knows whether these works will find their way into the mainstream? philharmonic orchestra of indianapolis 5 THE CONDUCTOR ORCENITH SMITH CONDUCTOR, ARTISTIC DIRECTOR rcenith Smith’s leadership has been acclaimed in concert after concert with reviews of Ohis performances garnering words like “triumphant” and “dazzling.” An honors graduate of the Cincinnati Conservatory, he is currently the Director of Orchestras and Opera at DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana.

In competitions, he has conducted the BBC Orchestra (London) and the West Berlin, Germany Radio Orchestra. 6 philharmonic orchestra of indianapolis MISSION AND HISTORY The mission of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Indianapolis is to present classical music at affordable prices, feature soloists in masterworks and new compositions, conserve the abilities of volunteer musicians of all ages and occupations and aid young people to appreciate and perform great music. hen music store proprietor and percussionist Hermann Rinne founded the Philharmonic Orchestra of Indianapolis, he chose the W name to differentiate his new group from the professional Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Rinne’s vision was to create a first-class orchestra that would provide the many accomplished volunteer musicians in the community with a place to play great symphonic music. His first call for musicians resulted in 13 players, but an article in the Indianapolis Star caused the ranks of his fledgling orchestra to swell. The orchestra presented its inaugural concert on April 28, 1941. The orchestra currently presents a full season of classical concerts each year, including the February Gospel Concert. During the summer, IndyParks hosts the Philharmonic in a free concert in Garfield Park. Prior to each classical concert, the conductor presents Listen and Learn, an opportunity for the audience to meet the musicians and to learn about the music being presented. The Philharmonic continues its unique role as Indianapolis’ community orchestra by advancing music education throughout the city. Recently, the Phil has played an annual side-by-side concert with the Pike High School orchestras. Members of the orchestra donate a weekday morning to perform an introductory concert for 600 Indianapolis Public School third-graders in our Listen Up! program.

  • 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

  • Female Composer Segment Catalogue
    FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS from past to present ʻFreed from the shackles and tatters of the old tradition and prejudice, American and European women in music are now universally hailed as important factors in the concert and teaching fields and as … fast developing assets in the creative spheres of the profession.’ This affirmation was made in 1935 by Frédérique Petrides, the Belgian-born female violinist, conductor, teacher and publisher who was a pioneering advocate for women in music. Some 80 years on, it’s gratifying to note how her words have been rewarded with substance in this catalogue of music by women composers. Petrides was able to look back on the foundations laid by those who were well-connected by family name, such as Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, and survey the crop of composers active in her own time, including Louise Talma and Amy Beach in America, Rebecca Clarke and Liza Lehmann in England, Nadia Boulanger in France and Lou Koster in Luxembourg. She could hardly have foreseen, however, the creative explosion in the latter half of the 20th century generated by a whole new raft of female composers – a happy development that continues today. We hope you will enjoy exploring this catalogue that has not only historical depth but a truly international voice, as exemplified in the works of the significant number of 21st-century composers: be it the highly colourful and accessible American chamber music of Jennifer Higdon, the Asian hues of Vivian Fung’s imaginative scores, the ancient-and-modern syntheses of Sofia Gubaidulina, or the hallmark symphonic sounds of the Russian-born Alla Pavlova.
