SARTORIAL SYMPHONY BSO musicians debut new orchestral DEVELOPMENT garments created in collaboration with Asfour and his team Parsons School of Design conducting the final fitting with BSO musicians. uring the final subscription concert weekend of the 2017–18 season, the BSO musicians unveiled new garments as part of a project that was spearheaded by Marin Alsop and Parsons professor and designer Gabi Asfour. D“I am so thrilled with the new garments that Gabi and his team have created, which rework traditional aesthetics in a new, forward- thinking way,” says Alsop. “Our partnership with Parsons has been FINAL incredibly unique and educational, and I hope our project serves as a model for other orchestras in the future.” In 2012, Asfour began working with BSO musicians to develop the new orchestral garments. Through extensive research of traditional orchestral garments, formal wear, traditional tailoring and innovative fabric technology, the ensembles were created with Percussionist John Locke and a specific focus on functionality. The design team incorporated Principal Second hi-tech fabrics to enhance breathability and prevent overheating.

Dimensions, all of the musicians underwent 3D body scanning in order to enable precise body measurement for the garments. “What excited me the most during this project was formalwear needing to perform as active wear,” says Asfour. “My students and I created several prototypes that led to the final outcome.” The project was made possible, in part, through underwriting from Mr. Tomio Taki and from a donor who wishes to remain anonymous. 4 NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK James Wyman Marin Alsop and BSO bring new music to Baltimore nder the leadership of Marin Alsop, the BSO presented its second New Music Festival over four days in June.

  • A Pedagogical Analysis and Performance of Selected Compositions for Piano by Vincent Persichetti
    A PEDAGOGICAL ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE OF SELECTED COMPOSITIONS FOR PIANO BY VINCENT PERSICHETTI By Copyright 2016 Chi Kit Lam Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Jack Winerock ________________________________ Dr. Scott McBride Smith ________________________________ Dr. Michael Kirkendoll ________________________________ Prof. Scott Murphy ________________________________ Dr. Alfred Tat-Kei Ho Date defended: May 11, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Chi Kit Lam certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: A PEDAGOGICAL ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE OF SELECTED COMPOSITIONS FOR PIANO BY VINCENT PERSICHETTI ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Jack Winerock Date approved: May 11, 2016 ii ABSTRACT Vincent Persichetti composed in a wide range of contemporary musical idioms. He incorporated twentieth-century harmonies into traditional forms and into classical piano writing. This paper seeks to emphasize the advantages of his music for piano pedagogy. Chapter Two concentrates on the composer’s life, compositional style, contribution and rewards, and it includes a short list of piano compositions. Chapter Three examines and analyzes four selected pieces by Persichetti: Little Piano Book, Piano Sonata No. 9, Poems for Piano No. 2 “Soft is the Collied Night,” and Four Arabesques, Op. 141, No. 1 Affabile. The Poem, the Arabesque, and the miniatures in Little Piano Book are smaller pieces, intended for amateur and intermediate pianists. The Ninth Sonata is a more substantial composition for advanced pianists. These pieces provide a broad image of Persichetti’s piano compositions. This study of selected works by Persichetti shows that his music is excellent pedagogical material for piano students as well as outstanding music to be performed in the concert hall.

  • A Jubilant Overture (1970)
    Alfred Reed (1921-2005) A Jubilant Overture (1970) We open this afternoon's program with Alfred Reed's exuberant A Jubilant Overture. This piece is cast in traditional three-part overture form. It begins with a rousing allegro con brio statement of three related themes in quick succession. A broad, singing middle section derived from one of the opening themes follows. The music then returns to its original tempo and mood, plunging on to a brilliant coda. Alfred Reed was born in Manhattan and considered himself to be a native New Yorker. In 1953, while completing his degree work at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, Reed became conductor of the Baylor Symphony Orchestra. His Masters thesis was the Rhapsody for Viola and Orchestra, which later was to win the Luria Prize. During his two years at Baylor, he also became interested in the problems of educational music at all levels, especially in the development of repertoire materials for school bands, orchestras, and choruses. This led, in 1955, to his accepting the post of editor in a major publishing firm in New York. In 1966 he left this post to join the faculty of the School of Music at the University of Miami (FL), holding a joint appointment in the Theory-Composition and Music Education departments, and to develop the unique Music Industry degree program at that institution, of which he became director.
