  • An Arthur Berger
    AN ARTHUR BERGER New World Records 80360 RETROSPECTIVE with GILBERT KALISH, piano JOEL KROSNICK, cello CHRISTOPHER OLDFATHER, piano JOEL SMIRNOFF, violin DAVID STAROBIN, guitar Members of the Boehm Quintette Arthur Berger is a stalwart of the American concert tradition. No popularizer, he has for some fifty years been producing sturdily crafted pieces that spring from the mixed lineage of Stravinsky, Schoenberg, and Copland. Yet the style is all his own. At times it readily appeals. Always it challenges. Born in 1912 and raised in the Bronx, Berger first studied at City College and New York University, later at the Longy School of Music and at Harvard. He completed his formal education with Nadia Boulanger in Paris. From 1939 to 1943 he taught at Mills College and Brooklyn College, then began writing music criticism for the New York Sun and, principally, the New York Herald-Tribune. In 1953 Berger joined the faculty of Brandeis University; he has also taught at Harvard and the Juilliard School, and is currently on the faculty of the New England Conservatory. Like many of his composer contemporaries, Berger has been an important and prolific writer. In addition to his stints as a journalist, he founded two quite different periodicals, each an outgrowth of the notion of a "little magazine" directed to a special public. The first, The Musical Mercury, was started in 1934 by Berger and Bernard Herrmann--the man later famous as a Hollywood film composer. Although The Musical Mercury included some articles about new works, it mostly explored European compositions of the past. The journal with which Berger is most closely identified, however, is Perspectives of New Music, begun with Benjamin Boretz in 1962.

    1 CMS Southern Chapter Regional Conference February 25 – 27, 2021 Virtual Conference 2 A Message from the CMS Southern Chapter President Welcome to the 42nd Annual Conference of the CMS Southern Chapter! What a wonderful conference we had last year in Nashville at Vanderbilt, though it would end up being one of the few CMS regional conferences that took place in the spring. The year 2020 was indeed a difficult one, with a global pandemic, severe economic hardship and uncertainty, and a polarizing political climate during an election year. Like many other CMS chapters, we’re holding our conference online this year, and preparing for this conference has been unlike any other year in the 42 years of existence. But we charge ahead! This year’s conference will include all of the excellent performances, demonstrations, papers, posters, panels, and concerts that would occur during any year. Oral presentations (papers, panels, demonstrations, lecture recitals, and posters) will occur via Zoom meetings hosted by the session chair. All concerts will also occur on Zoom, and performances are pre- recorded and shared during the event by the session host. AirMeet will serve as our platform for hosting all Zoom sessions. Links to sessions are found in the AirMeet link (provided to all registrants via email). We are honored to have Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings as our keynote speaker this year. Dr. Ladson-Billings is a renowned pedagogical theorist and teacher/educator. She will be joining us via Zoom on Saturday at 1pm for a presentation and Q&A session regarding her research as well as the powerful role music can play in change, reconstruction, and inclusivity.
