Understanding of the audiences is a crucial basis for arts organizations to strategically plan their activities.

  • Oregon Bach Festival Breaks Ground for New Multi-Purpose Home on the University of Oregon Campus
    Matthew Halls Artistic Director Janelle McCoy Executive Director MEDIA RELEASE CONTACT Josh Gren, Director of Marketing & Communications 458-210-6631 or [email protected] Edward McNally, Above the Fold Arts PR 404-281-6419 or [email protected] Oregon Bach Festival Breaks Ground for New Multi-Purpose Home on the University of Oregon Campus EUGENE, OR – A new artistic director in 2014. A new executive director earlier this year. Now, just six days before the opening night concert of its highly anticipated 47th season, the internationally acclaimed Oregon Bach Festival (OBF) will break ground on their new permanent home on the University of Oregon campus. The 10,000 square foot, 2-story building, designed by Portland-based Hacker Architects, will provide space for Festival program rehearsals, recitals, lectures, and receptions. The space will house OBF’s administrative offices and support space and give OBF a prominent presence on campus and in the city. The multi-purpose facility, which is scheduled to open in June 2017, will face 18th Avenue adjacent to the University’s School of Music and Dance (SOMD). OBF staff, board members and major donors will join more than fifty University and Eugene community leaders and elected officials for a VIP luncheon and groundbreaking at 12:30 pm, Friday, June 17. The proposed name, Berwick Hall, is in honor of UO alumni Phyllis and Andrew Berwick, whose $6.5 million gift to OBF funded the largest part of the $8.7 million budget for the building’s design and construction. In addition to accommodating OBF’s administrative offices, the building will be a gathering place for OBF’s community programming and for other arts organizations on campus.

  • The 2018 Guide Festivals
    April 2018 The 2018 Guide Festivals FEATURE ARTICLE 10 Questions, Two (Very Different) Festivals Editor’s Note Our fifth annual Guide to Summer Festivals is our biggest yet, with some 85 annotated entries, plus our usual free access to the 1400 listings in the Musical America database. The details for the 85—dates, locations, artistic directors, programming, guest artists, etc.—have been provided by the festivals themselves, in response to a questionnaire sent to our list of Editor’s Picks. Those are determined by a number of factors: it’s hardly a surprise to see the big-budget events, such as Salzburg, Tanglewood, and Aspen, included. But budget is by no means the sole criterion. The 2018 Guide Programming, performers, range and type of events offered—all of these factor into the equation. For our feature article, we chose two highly regarded events and asked them one set of questions, just for the purposes of compare and contrast. Since George Loomis traveled to Ravenna last summer and knows Ojai well, we decided he was the perfect candidate to get the answers. Our hunch that the two couldn’t be more different turned out to be quite accurate: one takes place over a weekend, the over a two-month period; one is in the U.S., the other in Europe; one is rural, the other urban; one’s in a valley, the other by the sea; one focuses on contemporary fare, the other on traditional; one houses its artists in homes, the other in hotels; one is overseen by a man, the other by Festivals a woman; Ojai’s venues are primarily outdoor and strictly 20th century, Ravenna’s are mostly indoor and date as far back as the sixth century.

  • The 2021 Guide
    FestivalsThe 2021 Guide April 2021 Editor’s Note Spring is in the air, vaccinations are in (many) arms, and our hardy crop of mountain, lakeside, and pastorally sited music-makers appear to be in major recovery mode from a very long, dark year. Our 2021 Festival Guide lists 100-plus entries, some still in the throes of program planning, others with their schedules nailed down, one or two strictly online, and most a combination of all of the above. We’ve asked each about their COVID-19 safety protocols, along with their usual dates, places, artists, and assorted platforms. Many are equipped to head outside: Aspen Music Festival, Tanglewood, and Caramoor Music Center already have outdoor venues. Those that don’t are finding them: Central City Opera Festival is taking Carousel and Rigoletto to a nearby Garden Center and staging Dido & Aeneas in its backyard; the Bay Chamber Concerts Screen Door Festival is headed to the Camden (ME) Amphitheater. Still others are busy constructing their own pavilions: “Glimmerglass on the Grass” is one, with 90-minute re- imagined performances of The Magic Flute, Il Trovatore, and the premiere of The Passion of Mary Cardwell Dawson. The Virginia Arts Festival has also built a new open-air facility called the Bank Street Stage, a large tent area with pod seating options. Repertoire range is as broad as ever, with the Cabrillo Festival priding itself on being “America’s longest-running festival of new orchestral music”; Bang on a Can will make as much avant-garde noise as humanly possible with its “Loud Weekend” at Mass MOCA and its composer trainings later in the summer.
