The Historical Performance movement began as a revolution: a reimagining of musical conventions, a rediscovery of instruments, techniques, and artworks that inspire and teach us, and a celebration of diversity in repertoire. It is also a conversation with the past, a past whose legacy of racism and colonialism has silenced and excluded too many voices from being heard. We do not seek simply to recreate what might have been but to imagine what should be. We embrace Juilliard's values of equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through voices heard anew and historical works presented with empathetic perspectives, and we reject discrimination, exclusion, and marginalization. We recognize that we study and work on the traditional homeland of those who preceded us (see Juilliard's land acknowledgement statement, below).

Smith 3 Welcome Back What a time it has been! Our world has experienced unprecedented disruption since we last gathered in the spring of 2020 in our beautiful venues to witness exquisite music, dance, and theatre together. Throughout these many long and painful months of separation and isolation, I have been yearning for the time when we can be together once again. It appears that time is finally now upon us! I am absolutely thrilled to share our plans for celebrating the University of Georgia Performing Arts Center’s historic 25th anniversary season throughout the fall of 2021 and spring of 2022. Our silver anniversary season will feature a variety of acclaimed guest artists—some new to us and some returning favorites—with an equally wide variety of personal life experiences. They will come to us from across the United States and several different countries. Their experiences inform their work, and we will, for a brief moment in time, commune together as the universal languages of music, spoken word, and movement unite us in hope and healing. Not only has the world changed significantly since we first opened our doors 25 years ago, it has changed dramatically in the last year as we have endured the devastating impact of a global pandemic, social injustice, political uncertainty, and any number of other things.

  • Classical Jazz
    LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER May 29, 2003, 8:00 p.m. on PBS Marsalis at the Penthouse In the summer of 1987 a "Classical Jazz" concert series was established at New York City's Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, under the inspired leadership of trumpet player, Wynton Marsalis. Seven years later this indispensable activity was redefined and became the autonomous jazz division at Lincoln Center--Jazz at Lincoln Center. Thus this essential American musical form took its place at Lincoln Center alongside such other constituents as the New York Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera, with Marsalis continuing as the driving force behind it. We have been privileged over the years on Live From Lincoln Center to be able to bring you several performances by this outstanding ensemble, most recently in concert with Kurt Masur and the New York Philharmonic. (Interestingly, during the years of the Masur family's residence in New York, the Maestro's son-- himself an aspiring conductor--became a great jazz enthusiast.) Our next Live From Lincoln Center telecast, on Thursday evening, May 29, will be devoted to yet another live performance by Jazz at Lincoln Center. But with a difference! Our previous sessions with Jazz at Lincoln Center have originated in one of the several concert halls in the Lincoln Center complex and have featured the artistry of the large ensemble. On May 29 the 90-minute performance will take place in the intimate confines of the Kaplan Penthouse high atop the building that houses Lincoln Center's administration offices. The Kaplan Penthouse has served as the locale for three previous Live From Lincoln Center telecasts: two featuring Itzhak Perlman, the other spotlighting Renée Fleming.

    Finding Interpretations: A Comprehensive Tempo Analysis of Phrases from Commercial Recordings of the Hummel Trumpet Concerto using Tempo Maps in Pro Tools by Marc Lynn Sutton, B.M., M.M. A Doctoral Performance Project In Music Performance Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Approved Dr. Andrew Stetson Chair of Committee Dr. Kevin Wass Dr. Lisa Garner Dr. Mark Sheridan Dean of the Graduate School August 2018 Copyright 2018, Marc Lynn Sutton Texas Tech University, Marc Lynn Sutton, August 2018 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project would not have been possible if not for the help of a number of people. First and foremost, I would like to thank my parents. Without them, I would never have made it this far. They are the only ones that have been with me through every high and low that I’ve experienced throughout my life. My parents were my first teachers and coaches. Everything that I have done or learned in life is simply a variation on their lessons. Their encouragement to reach for the stars has taking me to places that I never thought possible. They mean the world to me and I am thankful for them every single day. Next, I would like to thank my mentor and professor, Dr. Stetson. The decision to return to school and begin work on a doctorate was not easy, but now in hindsight, it was exactly what I needed. From our first conversation, Dr. Stetson had me convinced that working together we would be able to accomplish a lot, and that proved to be true.

  • Anthony Newman, Organ
    THE SCARSDALE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH CONCERT SERIES PRESENTS The Glory of the Organ Anthony Newman Sunday, April 17th, 2016 5:00 p.m. Reception follows One Heathcote Road Scarsdale, New York THREE FRENCH BAROQUE TRUMPET TUNES Charpentier, Lully, Dandrieu Toccata Adagio and Fugue in C major, BWV 564 – J. S. BACH Cantabile – C. FRANCK Three Sonatas – W. A. MOZART (Intermission) Romantic Adagio and Fantasia on Te Deum – A. NEWMAN Soeur Monique – F. COUPERIN Le Coucou – L. C. DAQUIN Fantasia and Fugue in G minor, BWV 542 – J. S. BACH THREE FAMOUS TRUMPET TUNES Purcell, Clarke, Purcell FUGUE IN G major, BWV 565 – J. S. BACH These six trumpet tunes are taken from many standard French baroque trumpet pieces and indeed from famous English Baroque works. Some of you will recognize them from the “Masterpiece Theatre Show” and Britain's “Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra.” The Bach works are amongst his most celebrated and well-known works for the organ. The toccata in C features a lengthy pedal solo followed by a beautiful adagio made famous by Pablo Casals in transcription, and an extremely joyful fugue. The work by Cesar Frank is unabashedly romantic, quiet, and lyrical. Mozart's church sonatas were used to get the Archbishop from the epistle side of the Salzburg Cathedral to the gospel side. They are short wonderful little gems of pieces, and I have transcribed the three you will hear today as organ solos. My own work is based on the opening four notes of the Gregorian Te Deum and is one of my most successful works, having transcriptions for solo piano and violin.

  • Koerner Hall 10Th Anniversary Gala: Kathleen Battle Tuesday, October 2, 2018 at 8:00Pm This Is the 862Nd Concert in Koerner Hall
    Koerner Hall 10th Anniversary Gala: Kathleen Battle Tuesday, October 2, 2018 at 8:00pm This is the 862nd concert in Koerner Hall Kathleen Battle Soprano Soprano Kathleen Battle’s luminous voice has been called “… without qualification, one of the very few most beautiful in the world” (The Washington Post). Yet beyond the glory of her singing, in a career filled with countless accolades, honours, and major milestones, what has perhaps distinguished her most is her almost magical ability to create an unwavering emotional bond between herself, her music, and her audience. In her youth, this native of Portsmouth, Ohio, the youngest of seven children, sang in church and school, and envisioned a future as a music teacher. Fortunately for audiences around the world, she found other ways to share her love of music – and through her natural gifts, innate intelligence, and hard work, her soaring voice has carried her to the heights of the classical music world. Indeed, throughout a remarkable career that has brought her to the stages of the world’s leading opera houses and major concert halls, critics have never tired of rhapsodizing over her limpid, unmistakable sound. Since her student years, Kathleen Battle has collaborated with colleagues who rank among the world’s most talented musicians. She has been a favourite soloist with the world’s leading orchestras and esteemed conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, Sir Georg Solti, Riccardo Muti, James Levine, Claudio Abbado, Lorin Maazel, Seiji Ozawa, Leonard Slatkin, and Sir Neville Marriner. Her partnerships with soprano Jessye Norman, tenors Luciano Pavarotti and Plácido Domingo, violinist Itzhak Perlman, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis, guitarist Christopher Parkening, flautists Jean-Pierre Rampal and Hubert Laws, and the late saxophonist Grover Washington, Jr., to name but a few, are documented on numerous recordings and video discs.
