Program notes adapted by Stefan Hintersteininger from Murray Adaskin: An Annotated Catalogue of his Music by Gordana Lazarevich and Robyn Cathcart, Dolce Publications, Victoria, 2003. Letter from the BC Director It’s not every day that an organization launches a new concert series, let alone a new theatre. Undertaking one of these projects alone would be daunting. Doing both simultaneously is the challenge of a lifetime, and it’s only been possible with the help of dozens of remarkably talented people. The theme for our first concert season is Celebrating Our Legacy! To do that, we’ve chosen five BC composers who have made larger-than-life contributions, both in terms of their bodies of work, and their substantial dedication towards teaching the next generation of composers. -

Barbara Pentland's Songs for Soprano: a Performer's Guide to Selected
BARBARA PENTLAND’S SONGS FOR SOPRANO: A PERFORMER’S GUIDE TO SELECTED MAJOR WORKS A document submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2015 by Catherine Abele B.Mus. University of Manitoba, 2003 M.M. University of Cincinnati, 2006 Committee Chair: Professor Mary Henderson Stucky Abstract: Canadian composer Barbara Pentland (1912 – 2000) is primarily recognized for her piano and chamber music. She composed a number of art songs worthy of study and performance, yet audiences are generally unfamiliar with her solo vocal music, and singers largely neglect the repertoire. Despite the quality of her output, limited scholarly consideration has been given to her solo vocal works, and, to date, there exists no performance guide to her vocal-piano literature with in-depth attention given to the performance requirements. This document is a study of four representative works suitable to the soprano Fach, each representing distinctive stylistic periods and exhibiting diverse aesthetic influences on Pentland’s approach to composition: Ruins (Ypres, 1917) (1932), Song Cycle (1942-45), Three Sung Songs (1964) and Ice Age (1986). The introductory chapter of this document includes the statement of purpose for this study, background information, review of related literature, and methodology. Chapters 2 through 5 discuss each of the four vocal works, with particular attention given to the components of style of each song and performance considerations. The final chapter is a summary of findings and conclusions. -
