Our program begins with Psalm 121, “I raise my eyes to the hills. Where is the I love the LORD source of my help?” First we hear the Psalm, as chanted antiphonally in an for He hears my voice, my pleas; ancient cantillation from the Jews of Syria. Then in a setting by Salamone Rossi for He turns His ear to me whenever I call. in the style of the early Italian Baroque. The same text is treated by nineteenth- The bonds of death encompassed me; century composer Felix Mendelssohn in two excerpts from his oratorio Elijah. the torments of Sheol overtook me.

Where is the source of my help? “O LORD, save my life!” My help comes from the LORD, maker of heaven and earth. The LORD is gracious and beneficent; He will not let your foot give way; your guardian will not slumber; our God is compassionate. See, the guardian of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps! The LORD protects the simple; The LORD is your guardian, the LORD is your protection at your right hand. I was brought low and He saved me. By day the sun will not strike you, nor the moon by night. —Psalm 116:1-6 The LORD will guard you from all harm; He will guard your life. The LORD will guard your going and coming now and forever. Praise the LORD, for He is good, —Psalm 121 His steadfast love is eternal. Then we turn to Psalm 150, in which all living things are heard in joyous praise All nations have beset me; of God. The first setting, by Zamir alumna, Cantor Benjie Ellen Schiller, features by the name of the LORD I will surely cut them down. rhythms and modes inspired by the soundscape of the Middle East.

The ebullient “of trying to express that which he feels is far above his powers to express.” rhythms and bold harmonies portray the joy of the faith personified in the text. Of all the music that Ives composed, there was only one work with which he Happy is the man who has not followed the counsel of the wicked, was completely satisfied. It was this setting of Psalm 90, a work that he wrote in or taken the path of sinners, 1894, at the age of 20, and then revised some thirty years later. Ives delves into or joined the company of the insolent; the meaning of each verse of the Psalm, and portrays the lyrics with bold musical rather, the teaching of the LORD is his delight, strokes. He uses colossal complex chords, but also simple unison melodies and and he studies that teaching day and night. devotional hymn tunes. On the one hand, Ives was an avant-garde musician, He is like a tree planted beside streams of water, ahead of his time, whose music was incomprehensible to his contemporaries. which yields its fruit in season, And yet, there is a beautiful naiveté to his expression, a desire to hold onto the whose foliage never fades, simple life, the culture of the village green he remembered from his childhood in and whatever it produces thrives.

    chamber music with a modernist edge. His Piano Sonata (1938) reflected his Leonard Bernstein ties to Copland, with links also to the music of Hindemith and Stravinsky, and his Sonata for Clarinet and Piano (1942) was similarly grounded in a neoclassical aesthetic. The composer Paul Bowles praised the clarinet sonata as having a "tender, sharp, singing quality," as being "alive, tough, integrated." It was a prescient assessment, which ultimately applied to Bernstein’s music in all genres. Bernstein’s professional breakthrough came with exceptional force and visibility, establishing him as a stunning new talent. In 1943, at age twenty-five, he made his debut with the New York Philharmonic, replacing Bruno Walter at the last minute and inspiring a front-page story in the New York Times. In rapid succession, Bernstein Leonard Bernstein photo © Susech Batah, Berlin (DG) produced a major series of compositions, some drawing on his own Jewish heritage, as in his Symphony No. 1, "Jeremiah," which had its first Leonard Bernstein—celebrated as one of the most influential musicians of the performance with the composer conducting the Pittsburgh Symphony in 20th century—ushered in an era of major cultural and technological transition.

  • The Musical Compositions for Unaccompanied Solo Tuba by Four
    THE MUSICAL COMPOSITIONS FOR UNACCOMPANIED SOLO TUBA BY FOUR AMERICAN PERFORMER-COMPOSERS by DAVID MCLEMORE (Under the Direction of DAVID ZERKEL) ABSTRACT The solo repertoire for tuba is characterized by its small size and lack of stylistic diversity. As with other instruments in Western Art music, a solution to this dearth of repertoire has involved the worked of performer-composers, virtuoso instrumentalists who have created new works for their instrument. This study examines the solo tuba compositions of four American performer-composers: Mike Forbes, Grant Harville, Benjamin Miles, and John Stevens. Each composer’s compositional style and approach is discussed, followed by a musical analysis of their music for tuba alone. As some of these compositions are already staples in the solo tuba repertoire, this study provides a resource to performers and teachers who will perform, study, or teach these compositions. Furthermore, composers and other performer-composers will benefit from the analysis of each performer-composer’s musical style.
