  • Conducting Studies Conference 2016
    Conducting Studies Conference 2016 24th – 26th June St Anne’s College University of Oxford Conducting Studies Conference 2016 24-26 June, St Anne’s College WELCOME It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to St Anne’s College and the Oxford Conducting Institute Conducting Studies Conference 2016. The conference brings together 44 speakers from around the globe presenting on a wide range of topics demonstrating the rich and multifaceted realm of conducting studies. The practice of conducting has significant impact on music-making across a wide variety of ensembles and musical contexts. While professional organizations and educational institutions have worked to develop the field through conducting masterclasses and conferences focused on professional development, and academic researchers have sought to explicate various aspects of conducting through focussed studies, there has yet to be a space where this knowledge has been brought together and explored as a cohesive topic. The OCI Conducting Studies Conference aims to redress this by bringing together practitioners and researchers into productive dialogue, promoting practice as research and raising awareness of the state of research in the field of conducting studies. We hope that this conference will provide a fruitful exchange of ideas and serve as a lightning rod for the further development of conducting studies research. The OCI Conducting Studies Conference Committee, Cayenna Ponchione-Bailey Dr John Traill Dr Benjamin Loeb Dr Anthony Gritten University of Oxford University of

  • PRESSQUOTES Owen Gilhooly
    PRESSQUOTES Owen Gilhooly BARITONE Valentin / Faust / Everyman Theatre & Cork Operatic Society / March 2015 Cond. & Dir. John O’Brien “A wealth of duets, trios and quartets endorses the magic of the classic tradition, a genre well suited to Owen Gilhooly’s fine Valentin” (The Irish Times) Bridegroom, Husband, Father / The Vanishing Bridegroom / NMC Recordings Ltd / 2014 Cond, Martyn Brabbins / BBC Symphony Orchestra “Mr. Gilhooly is unbothered by the difficulty of his music, and his ringing, masculine tone gives the solo singing a firm, bronzed core.” (Voix des Arts) R (Robert) / Through his Teeth / Royal Opera House / 2014 Cond. Sian Edwards / Dir. Bijan Sheibani “‘R’, played with wonderfully irresistible confidence by Owen Gilhooly” (Opera / Hugo Shirley) “Owen Gilhooly plays the devious R with chilling precision – one moment kind and loving, and the next a scheming monster. His opening scene (scene two of the work) is fairly high in the voice, and Gilhooly displays a full range of dynamics, even in this part of the voice. He very effectively plays the part of a man who is playing a part – something which is never easy.” (Bachtrack / Levi White) “As R, baritone Owen Gilhooly, making his Royal Opera debut, looks the part and sounds it as well; his voice has all the requisite heft.” (Seen & Heard International / Colin Clarke) “Owen Gilhooly manages to combine sexual allure with fanaticism to chilling effect” (WhatsOnStage / Keith McDonnell) “Anna Devin as the deluded A, Owen Gilhooly as the mendacious R, and Victoria Simmonds, doubling
