She was also taking photos, thousands of them. “It was such a profound feeling to be alone in such wild immensity. I just can’t shake it,” Bryan later wrote in an artist’s statement. Three years later, those 10 days con- tinue to yield rich inspiration for Bryan, as seen in her prints and giant paintings of ice formations, waterfalls, peaks, rivers and snow. She’s exhibiting sev- eral works this fall at the Community School of Music and Arts in Mountain View in a Mohr Gallery solo show called “Glacier Works.” Sukey Bryan The show runs through Nov. 27 at CSMA, 230 San Antonio Circle. Works will include “Ice Walls,” a trip- tych of oil paintings depicting the chilly blues of ice walls above a river floating with ice chunks. The darknesses buried in the blues hint at the cliffs’ depths, the silt in the ice and the mud in the water. “The ice has a strangeness to it,” Bryan says in her studio, a converted, comfortably large garage with natural light and sweeping white walls.

  • Hoagy Carmichael Was a True American Original. First of All, There
    INTRODUCTION Hoagy Carmichael was a true American original. First of all, there was his name, so unique that he be came one of those few public figures—along with Cole, Eubie, and Elvis—that you could identify by his first name alone. Then there was that singing voice—the flat, Hoosier cadences—and that laconic public persona, impossible to mistake for anyone else's. And there was his unusual ca reer path—from law student, lawyer, and Wall Street em ployee to hit songwriter and celebrity via records, motion pictures, radio, and television. But most original of all were the songs Carmichael wrote, songs that typically sound like nobody else's. Hoagland Howard Carmichael was born in Bloom- ington, Indiana on November 22, 1899, the oldest child of Howard and Lida Carmichael. His father made a fitful living as a horse-and-buggy operator, later as an electri cian; his mother played piano to accompany silent movies and to entertain students at Indiana University fraternity dances. The family teetered at the edge of poverty, but Carmichael had a happy childhood. As a boy, he thrilled to the music of the visiting circuses, and absorbed the music of the nearby black churches. And there was the v VI INTRODUCTION newfangled ragtime his mother played, rocking the piano as she beat out the raggedy rhythms of Scott Joplin's Ma ple Leaf Rag and other toe-tapping pieces. During his teenaged years Carmichael's family moved fifty miles northeast to Indianapolis, and there Hoagy came under the spell of an African-American pianist named Reggie DuValle, who played ragtime and the hot rhythms of the incoming jazz music, and who gave Car- michael a great piece of advice.

  • Symposium Guide 2009 - 2
    Research Symposium Classical & Jazz Departments Conservatory of Amsterdam March 3-6, 2009 Program Abstracts arch 3-6, 2009, second-year students of the Masters program of the Conservatory of Amsterdam will present the results of their research projects at our annual Research Symposium. The individual research project is an integral part of the Masters Mprogram. It was introduced in 2002 to make music students familiar with the ins and outs of research practice, to encourage their critical and searching attitudes, and to stimulate their active involvement in the accumulation and dissemination of musical knowledge. Apart from all necessary heuristic and communicative skills, a strong personal zeal is a prerequisite for a successful research project. Therefore, we invited students to pursue their own interests, starting from questions that had been lingering in their minds for some time. Of course, they received general instructions and personal advice. We provided them with information about sources and libraries. We helped them organise their papers. If possible, we brought them into contact with relevant experts. Nonetheless, each presentation reflects the student’s own identification with the topic. Moreover, students could choose from a variety of formats. Some of them chose to write a thesis, or to deliver a research lecture; others preferred to turn research into practice. Therefore, the program not only covers a wide range of topics, but also includes such different events as recitals, lecture- recitals, workshops, and thesis presentations. The idea to present the results of all projects at a yearly symposium suggested itself for practical reasons, since the number of students involved is so large.

The POPS Broadway celebration provides a fitting cap to a season of five concerts, all performed to nearly sold-out audiences. The season finale will provide a quintessential Feinstein experience with two of Broadway’s greatest performers bringing to life songs from hit Broadway shows from every decade leading up to today. Highlights include hits from South Pacific, West Side Story, The Sound of Music, Cabaret and Wicked, among many other beloved show tunes. “It’s interesting to ask somebody what they think about when they hear the word “Broadway.” For me, of course it is about the music and the musical theatre legacy that has contributed so much to American culture…there are many American standards that people don’t realize came from Broadway.” – Michael Feinstein Two outstanding Broadway alum will be joining the POPS orchestra for this showcase, with Emmy Award-winner Liz Callaway, who got her Broadway start in Merrily We Roll Along and went on to star in Miss Saigon, Baby and Cats among others, and Jordan Donica, who made his debut starring as Raoul, in the historic Broadway production of The Phantom of the Opera.
