  • Analysis of Duo for Flute and Piano by Aaron Copland Exploring Copland’S Last Major Composition in the Context of Performance
    Analysis of Duo for Flute and Piano by Aaron Copland Exploring Copland’s last major composition in the context of performance by M Sage Gustafson A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Music (Honors Scholar) Presented July 11, 2017 Commencement June 2018 2 3 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF M Sage Gustafson for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Music presented on July 11, 2017. Title: Analysis of Duo for Flute and Piano by Aaron Copland. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Christopher Chapman Aaron Copland is known by many as the founder of American Music and is still considered one of the pre-eminent composers to come from the Americas, particularly North America. He composed from 1917-1973, with many of his most recognizable works composed in the early 1940s. Duo for Flute and Piano was composed from 1969-1971 as his last substantial composition. Much attention has been given to his earlier compositions, but Duo is underrepresented in scholarly literature. Through the use of timelines, an analytical methodology developed by professor Jan LaRue at New York University, phrase structure and compositional patterns are readily identifiable for all three movements, which can inform performance technique. Additionally, since the first movement of Duo is motivically dense, a motivic map is used to visually trace the motives as they transform over the course of this movement. Emphasis

This study will examine the Duo and Threnodies as examples of the composer’s late style with special attention given to Copland’s tendency to adopt and reinterpret material from outside sources and his desire to be liberated from his own popular style of the 1940s. The Duo, written in memory of flutist William Kincaid, is a representative example of Copland’s 1940s popular style. The piece incorporates jazz, boogie-woogie, ragtime, hymnody, Hebraic chant, medieval music, Russian primitivism, war-like passages, pastoral depictions, folk elements, and Indian exoticisms. The piece also contains a direct borrowing from Copland’s film scores The North Star (1943) and Something Wild (1961).

  • Program Notes
    NOTES ON THE PROGRAM ERNEST BLOCH: Suite Modale (1956) A native of Switzerland, Ernest Bloch came to the United States in 1916 as conductor of a ballet tour; when the company failed he remained in the USA, obtaining an appointment as theory and composition professor at the David Mannes College of Music in New York. He also conducted Renaissance choral music with amateur singers at the Manhattan Trade School. Bloch soon began conducting his works on Jewish themes in Boston, New York, and Philadelphia, and G. Schirmer published them with a personal logo—the Star of David with the initials E.B. in the center, which established Bloch’s public Jewish identity. In later years, averred his daughter Suzanne Bloch—a lutenist prominent participant in New York early music circles-he wished not to be so identified. He went on to be founding director of the Cleveland Institute of Music (1920-25) and later taught at the University of California, Berkeley. Unlike Bloch’s Sacred Service and Schelomo, for instance, the Suite Modale is not an overtly Jewish work. One of his last compositions, it was commissioned by conductor Efrem Kurtz for his wife, Elaine Shaffer, to whom it was dedicated. Bloch wrote it during the summer of 1956 and it was premiered on March 10, 1957 by flutist John Wummer (then principal flutist of the New York Philharmonic) and pianist Leonid Hambro on a concert of the New York Chamber Players at the 92nd Street Y; Shaffer gave the European premiere in June 1957 in London’s Wigmore Hall.

  • Elaine Shaffer Article
    The little Lock Haven girl who became ‘Queen of the Flute ’ - Lockhaven.com | News, Sp ... Page 1 of 3 The little Lock Haven girl who became ‘Queen of the Flute’ By ,MATT CONNOR POSTED: January 9, 2009 Save | Print | Email Imagine you're walking down West Church Street, not far from the Helt Funeral Home in Lock Haven, on a spring day in the early 1940s. Perhaps your mind is troubled by thoughts of the war raging abroad, and of loved ones fighting in battle-torn Germany and Japan. Just as you're passing the home of Rex Shaffer, a Nabisco executive formerly of Altoona, your heart is suddenly lifted by the cool, melodious tones of a classical flute. You pause for a moment and take in this beautiful sound, floating majestically through the early afternoon air. You glance around, and perhaps peek behind the fences and brushes of the stately old homes lining the neighborhood. There, in the backyard of the Shaffer place, you catch sight of a young girl, not yet 17, whose shining silver flute extends almost as comfortably from her lips as a part of her own body. Congratulations. You've just experienced an early performance by an artist who would one day entertain the crown heads of Europe, headline victorious world tours and have music critics from New York to Oslo straining for superlatives to describe her rare and extraordinary talent. Elaine Shaffer was, in the decades before her early death in the 1970s, known by classical music lovers all over the world as The Queen of the Flute, a title bestowed upon her by Time magazine.

  • The Pedagogy of Walfrid Kujala: the American Flute School and Its Roots in the French Flute School of the Late Nineteenth Century
    The Pedagogy of Walfrid Kujala: The American Flute School and its Roots in the French Flute School of the Late Nineteenth Century A Document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the department of Performance Studies of the College-Conservatory of Music March 2017 by Erinn Elyse Frechette B.M. Northwestern University, 1997 M.M. University of Cincinnati, 2000 Committee Chair: Scott D. Lipscomb, Ph.D. Advisor: Heather Verbeck, DMA Abstract Chicago Symphony Orchestra Piccoloist and Northwestern University Professor of Flute Walfrid Kujala is renowned as one of the leading flute pedagogues of the twentieth century. During his forty-year career, he guided scores of young flutists, many of whom went on to serve as orchestral players or professors of flute in prestigious orchestras and universities across the United States and beyond. As a student of some of the founding members of the American Flute School, Kujala’s teachings represent a comprehensive blend of the French Flute School’s apotheosis (seen under Professor Paul Taffanel) and its progeny, the American Flute School. By the turn of the twentieth century, the Paris Conservatory held the reputation as the world’s foremost flute institution. Following in the footsteps of his predecessors, Paul Taffanel used his original compositions and study materials to instruct his students in the most technically and musically advanced style of the time. Hallmarks of the French style include technical brilliance and precision, a singing tone, a flexible embouchure, liberal use of vibrato, and light articulation.

Jerome Bell (b. 1993) Chantalle Falconer, piano Program Notes Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was a French composer who was largely self-taught. He was one of the leading group of the neo-classical movement, which rejected the overstated emotions of Romanticism. Poulenc wrote about two hundred melodies (songs) in his lifetime, as well as solo piano works, ballets, and chamber music. La Courte Paille is the last of Poulenc’s song cycles. It was composed for the soprano Denise Duval, and was dedicated to her and her six-year-old son, Richard Schilling. The poems are taken from two collections by the Belgian poet Maurice Carême, and are all written as nursery rhymes; as something to sing to a child at bedtime. Therefore, the words are playful and often full of what adults would consider nonsense.
