  • Acclaimed Pianist and Conductor Jeffrey Kahane Named a Professor at the USC Thornton School of Music
    Web Version | Contact Media Reps | Find Experts Like Tweet Forward Acclaimed Pianist and Conductor Jeffrey Kahane Named a Professor at the USC Thornton School of Music CONTACT: Evan Calbi 213/740-3229 [email protected] Libby Huebner 562/799-6055 and Laura Stegman 310/470-6321 [email protected] Jeffrey Kahane, the acclaimed pianist and music director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra (LACO), will join the USC Thornton School of Music faculty part time in fall 2015 during his final two years with LACO, becoming a full-time professor after he steps down from his LACO post in 2017. He will be transitioning to music director laureate at LACO after a 20-year run, the longest of any music director in the ensemble’s history. This appointment ensures he will remain a musical force in Los Angeles for years to come. Officials from USC Thornton and LACO made the joint announcement today that Kahane will join the keyboard studies department to teach piano as well as other classes. “Jeffrey is an important addition to the USC Thornton faculty as we continue to assemble what we believe to be the strongest music faculty in the world,” said Robert Cutietta, dean of USC Thornton. “He has such a strong humanities background that he will be a diverse and strong addition to our school. The sky is the limit on what might evolve.” Kahane said he was “deeply honored to join the immensely distinguished faculty” of USC Thornton and said he is “profoundly grateful for their warm and enthusiastic welcome and support.” Kahane said that a commitment to education has been a central part of his musical life for more than two decades.

  • Familiar Faces in Symphony Season
    Albanian violinist Tedi Papavrami will play Shostakovich’s Violin Concerto No. 1 with the Santa Rosa Symphony Oct. 5, 6 & 7. The Press Democrat . Friday, October 4, 2013 by Diane Peterson Familiar Faces in Symphony Season There will be lots of familiar faces when the Santa Rosa Symphony opens its 2013-2014 season this weekend at the Green Music Center's Weill Hall. The “Encores and Debuts” season not only welcomes back such soloists as cellist Maya Beiser but showcases familiar works such as Jean Sibelius' Symphony No. 2. “That's a theme running through the season,” said Santa Rosa Symphony Music Director Bruno Ferrandis. “Because it's anchored in the repertoire, it's one of the most balanced seasons I've ever realized.” The orchestra also will present a few contemporary works on the heels of winning an award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) for innovative programming during 2012-2013. “For me, it's mission accomplished, as far as the first season in the hall,” Ferrandis said. “This year, we have a lot of things to explore as well ... it's a very creative and modern program.” For Ferrandis, last season flew by quickly — it was the symphony's first year as resident orchestra of the new hall — and ended on a high note with Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 10. This season, the symphony picks up where it left off by performing Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5, one of the composer's most popular works. When it was written in 1937, Shostakovich was under intense scrutiny by the Soviet government.

  • Navigating, Coping & Cashing In
    The RECORDING Navigating, Coping & Cashing In Maze November 2013 Introduction Trying to get a handle on where the recording business is headed is a little like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall. No matter what side of the business you may be on— producing, selling, distributing, even buying recordings— there is no longer a “standard operating procedure.” Hence the title of this Special Report, designed as a guide to the abundance of recording and distribution options that seem to be cropping up almost daily thanks to technology’s relentless march forward. And as each new delivery CONTENTS option takes hold—CD, download, streaming, app, flash drive, you name it—it exponentionally accelerates the next. 2 Introduction At the other end of the spectrum sits the artist, overwhelmed with choices: 4 The Distribution Maze: anybody can (and does) make a recording these days, but if an artist is not signed Bring a Compass: Part I with a record label, or doesn’t have the resources to make a vanity recording, is there still a way?

But which Bring a Compass: Part II one is the right one?

  • The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M
    The Blake Collection In Memory of Nancy M. Blake BELLINI’S NORMA featuring CECILIA BARTOLI This tragic opera is set in Roman-occupied, first-century Gaul, features a title character, who although a Druid priestess, is in many ways a modern woman. Norma has secretly taken the Roman proconsul Pollione as her lover and had two children with him. Political and personal crises arise when the locals turn against the occupiers and Pollione turns to a new paramour. Norma “is a role with emotions ranging from haughty and demanding, to desperately passionate, to vengeful and defiant. And the singer must convey all of this while confronting some of the most vocally challenging music ever composed. And if that weren't intimidating enough for any singer, Norma and its composer have become almost synonymous with the specific and notoriously torturous style of opera known as bel canto — literally, ‘beautiful singing’” (“Love Among the Druids: Bellini's Norma,” NPR World of Opera, May 16, 2008). And Bartoli, one of the greatest living opera divas, is up to the challenges the role brings. (New York Public Radio’s WQXR’s “OperaVore” declared that “Bartoli is Fierce and Mercurial in Bellini's Norma,” Marion Lignana Rosenberg, June 09, 2013.) If you’re already a fan of this opera, you’ve no doubt heard a recording spotlighting the great soprano Maria Callas (and we have such a recording, too), but as the notes with the Bartoli recording point out, “The role of Norma was written for Giuditta Pasta, who sang what today’s listeners would consider to be mezzo-soprano roles,” making Bartoli more appropriate than Callas as Norma.
