  • Milko Kelemen: Life and Selected Works for Violoncello
    MILKO KELEMEN: LIFE AND SELECTED WORKS FOR VIOLONCELLO by JOSIP PETRAČ (Under the Direction of David Starkweather) ABSTRACT Milko Kelemen (b. 1924) is one of the most extraordinary Croatian composers of the post-World War II era. He has received numerous prestigious awards for his work, while his compositions are published by major companies, including Schott, Universal, Peters, and Hans Sikorski editions. His music is little studied or known internationally. This paper examines this innovative, avant-garde musician and sheds light both on Kelemen’s life and his compositional technique. The latter is examined in four compositions featuring cello as the main subject: Changeant (1968), Drammatico (1983), Requiem for Sarajevo (1994), and Musica Amorosa (2004). The examination of these compositions is placed in a biographical context which reveals how Kelemen’s keen political and cultural interests influenced his development as a composer. In particular, this document looks at Kelemen’s role as one of the founders, and the first president, of the Zagreb Music Biennale Festival, an event known for its ground-breaking work in bringing together artists and composers from the eastern and western blocs during the Cold War, as well as revitalising Croatia’s old-fashioned and provincial cultural scene. This festival of avant-garde music has been running since 1961. INDEX WORDS: Milko Kelemen, Zagreb Biennale, cello, avant-garde music, Changeant, Drammatico, Requiem for Sarajevo, Musica Amorosa MILKO KELEMEN:LIFE AND SELECTED WORKS FOR CELLO by JOSIP

  • Live Structures
    LIVE STRUCTURES Graphical Notation Perceptible Musical Architecture Linda Bouchard Online Lectures Virtual Workshops Composer Linda Bouchard has been working on the Live Structures project since 2017 with the initial support of a two-year grant from the Canada Council for the arts . Live Structures explores the interpretation of analytical data into musical parameters. Much of the research took place during an artist residency at matralab, Concordia University, in Montreal Quebec, Canada, where she collaborated with designer Joseph Browne to develop Ocular Scores™, a custom tool that creates graphical scores from the analysis of complex sounds and textures. To date three iterations of Ocular Scores™ have been created, addressing the ability to draw: a) shapes and images that are replicable; b) transcriptions of a musical performance that reveal musical events, and c) real-time images which can be manipulated in a live performance and interactive setting. The beta version of this graphical notation platform has been developed in close collaborations with expert performers from Montreal, Vancouver, San Francisco, and Zurich. In 2019, Bouchard was invited to give demonstrations and lectures on Live Structures and Ocular Scores™ at the festival MNM in Montreal, Quebec; the Banff Center for the Arts in Canada; the TENOR Conference in Melbourne, Australia; the German society for Music Theory Conference at the Zurich University for the Arts; and CNMAT, UC Berkeley in California. In 2020, pre-covid19, Bouchard had lectures and performances on the calendar for the IRCAM Forum Hors les Murs in Montreal; the ISCM Festival 2020 in New Zealand; and at the IX International FIMM Festival held at the National University of Quilmes, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Vancouver musicians have long been aware of a certain musical kinship between our city and the Un visage d’emprunt Netherlands. Many of the Lower Mainland’s most adventurous and influential musicians have spent time working and studying Robin de Raaff (1999; rev. 2002) in the Netherlands, three of whom—John Korsrud, Justin clarinet, violin, cello, piano Christensen and Peggy Lee—are involved in tonight’s concert. Dutch-born and raised Edward Top, a relative new-comer to Pots ‘n Pans Falling* Vancouver, has been a virtual creative lightning bolt to the city, Edward Top (2013) as a composer and as curator of the VSO’s Annex Series. flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano, percussion, We are thrilled to be premiering new works by Justin and recorded child violinist Edward, on tonight’s program. Critical Distance, Justin’s homage to French New Wave film director Jean-Luc Godard’s intermission genre-busting musical Une femme est une femme, challenges our pre-conceptions as performers and listeners, while Edward’s Critical Distance* Pots ‘n Pans Falling, with its cascading childlike motives, is a Justin Christensen (2013) poignant political statement. Edward’s piece, as he has noted flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano, percussion in this program, came about through the generous donations of members of Acoustic Panel, a grass-roots commissioning Workers Union initiative that was dreamed up and established by the late, great Louis Andriessen (1975) Tom Cone, to whom we all owe an enormous debt of gratitude and inspiration.
