  • Many Thanks to Many People by Paul R. Judy
    HarmonyTM FORUM OF THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA INSTITUTE NUMBER 7 • OCTOBER 1998 Many Thanks to Many People To subscribe to Harmony or provide support to the Institute, contact: Symphony Orchestra Institute 1618 Orrington Avenue, Suite 318 Evanston, IL 60201 Tel: 847.475.5001 Fax: 847.475.2460 e-mail: [email protected] www.soi.org ©1998 by the Symphony Orchestra Institute. All rights reserved. vii Many Thanks to Many People The Symphony Orchestra Institute was activated in the fall of 1995 as a catalyst for organizational change within the community of North American symphony orchestra organizations. The Institute was a new resident moving into a long- established and tightly bounded community; we were greeted with caution. As we pursued our mission and initiated early programs, we needed to build the trust of many constituencies. After three years, we believe that trust has been established, and that a groundswell of interest and enthusiasm is building in the direction of change which the Institute has fostered. The momentum of this wave arises from the breadth of involvement of many people who have helped undergird the Institute during the past three years. This is a note of thanks to all those people. The Institute’s acceptance by the leadership of other industry institutions was vital. Special personal thanks go to Brad Buckley (Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra), former chair of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians (ICSOM), his successor Robert Levine (Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra), and their colleagues on the ICSOM governing board, for the early recognition of the Institute, its independence, and its unbiased interest in better- functioning symphony organizations.

  • Andreas Delfs, Conductor
    ANDREAS DELFS, CONDUCTOR In January 2021 The Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) announced the appointment of Maestro Andreas Delfs as its thirteenth music director in the organization's 98-year history. Delfs follows in the footsteps of a long line of distinguished music directors including Erich Leinsdorf, David Zinman, Mark Elder, Christopher Seaman, and Ward Stare. A native of Flensburg, Germany, and graduate of the Hamburg Conservatory and Juilliard School of Music, Andreas Delfs has established himself as a pre-eminent force in the classical music world and one of the finest conductors of his generation. He has held chief artistic posts with orchestras in Europe and North America. At the age of 20, he became the youngest-ever Music Director of the Hamburg University Orchestra and Musical Assistant at the Hamburg State Opera. Throughout his 12 seasons as Musical Director of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, Delfs drew larger audiences to Uihlein Hall, selling out a record 40 concerts there during the 2000-2001 Season. Delfs led the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra as Music Director (2001-2004) and artistic consultant (2004-2006). Delfs has conducted numerous world premieres and has close links with many of today’s composers. He counts among his profound musical inspirations musicians such as John Corigliano, Philip Glass, Roberto Sierra, and Hans Werner Henze. He is the frequent partner to many of the world’s most renowned solo artists, including André Watts, Emanuel Ax, Joshua Bell, Hilary Hahn, Yo Yo Ma, Lang Lang, and Renée Fleming. He has an extensive discography, including all five of the Beethoven Piano Concertos; opera and choral works such as Hansel and Gretel, and the Mozart Requiem; and new works for the classical repertoire such as Roberto Nordic Artists Management / Denmark VAT number: DK29514143 http://nordicartistsmanagement.com Sierra’s Missa Latina.

Double and other multiple concertos were quite common in the High Baroque, including lots of examples by Vivaldi and, under his influence, Bach, but the solo concerto dominates the Classical period and beyond, with relatively few notable exceptions—Mozart’s two-piano concerto and sinfonias concertante, Beethoven’s Triple, Brahms’s Double—remaining solidly in today’s orchestral repertoire. This concert’s variety of approaches has as its chronological and stylistic extremes Michael Tippett’s 1939 GER Concerto for Double String Orchestra—one of the composer’s first works of significance— N and the brand-new, up-to-the-moment world premiere of the Double Concerto for Baritone GRAI Saxophone, Percussion, and Orchestra written for BMOP by Pittsburgh-based Mathew CLIVE Rosenblum.

  • 130 West 57Th Street Studio Building, 130 West 57Th Street, (Aka 126-132 West 57Th Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission October 19, 1999, Designation List 310 LP-2042 130 West 57th Street Studio Building, 130 West 57th Street, (aka 126-132 West 57th Street), Manhattan. Built, 1907-08, Pollard & Steinam, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1009, Lot 46. On July 13, 1999, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 130 West 57th Street Studio Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. There were six speakers in support of designation, including the owner of the building, representatives of the Landmarks Conservancy, the Society for the Architecture of the City, and the Historic Districts Council. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. In addition, the Commission has received letters from Assemblyman Richard N. Gottfried and from Community Board 5 in support of designation. Summary Built in 1907-08 to provide living and working facilities for artists, the studio building at 130 West 57th Street is a rare surviving example of this unusual building type, and a reminder of the early twentieth century period when West 57th Street was a center of artistic activities. Designed by architects Pollard & Steinam, who had previously created several artists' studio cooperatives on West 67th Street, this building profited from the experience of the developers and builders who had worked on the earlier structures. The artists' studio building type was developed early in the twentieth century, and was an important step toward the acceptance of apartment living for wealthy New Yorkers.

  • The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M
    The Blake Collection In Memory of Nancy M. Blake BELLINI’S NORMA featuring CECILIA BARTOLI This tragic opera is set in Roman-occupied, first-century Gaul, features a title character, who although a Druid priestess, is in many ways a modern woman. Norma has secretly taken the Roman proconsul Pollione as her lover and had two children with him. Political and personal crises arise when the locals turn against the occupiers and Pollione turns to a new paramour. Norma “is a role with emotions ranging from haughty and demanding, to desperately passionate, to vengeful and defiant. And the singer must convey all of this while confronting some of the most vocally challenging music ever composed. And if that weren't intimidating enough for any singer, Norma and its composer have become almost synonymous with the specific and notoriously torturous style of opera known as bel canto — literally, ‘beautiful singing’” (“Love Among the Druids: Bellini's Norma,” NPR World of Opera, May 16, 2008). And Bartoli, one of the greatest living opera divas, is up to the challenges the role brings. (New York Public Radio’s WQXR’s “OperaVore” declared that “Bartoli is Fierce and Mercurial in Bellini's Norma,” Marion Lignana Rosenberg, June 09, 2013.) If you’re already a fan of this opera, you’ve no doubt heard a recording spotlighting the great soprano Maria Callas (and we have such a recording, too), but as the notes with the Bartoli recording point out, “The role of Norma was written for Giuditta Pasta, who sang what today’s listeners would consider to be mezzo-soprano roles,” making Bartoli more appropriate than Callas as Norma.
