Since its formation in 1995, the Chorus has offered diverse and innovative music to the community through a gathering of singers who believe in a commonality of spirit and sharing. The début concert featured music by Gabriel Fauré and Louis Vierne. The Chorus has been involved in several premieres, including Bay Area composer Brad Osness’ Lamentations, Ohio composer Robert Witt’s Four Motets to the Blessed Virgin Mary (West Coast premiere), New York composer William Hawley’s The Snow That Never Drifts (San Francisco premiere), and San Francisco composer Kirke Mechem’s Christmas the Morn, Blessed Are They, and To Music (San Francisco premieres). Our 004-005 musical year has been very exciting. In Fall 004, we took a wonderful journey through French choral history from the 15th century to the 0th century, presenting Choral Music of France and featuring choral jewels by Guillaume Dufay, Josquin des Pres, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, Gabriel Fauré, César Franck, Francis Poulenc, Camille Saint-Saëns, Hector Berlioz and Arthur Honegger.

  • MANY DIFFERENT SAMPLES of REVIEWS December 1, 2006 Music
    MANY DIFFERENT SAMPLES OF REVIEWS December 1, 2006 Music Review | Miró Quartet A Favored Foursome Steps Outside the List of Favorites By ALLAN KOZINN It often seems surprising that, as vast as the string quartet repertory is, most ensembles draw from a relatively circumscribed well of favorites and acknowledged masterworks. The young musicians of the Miró Quartet set the core canon aside on Wednesday evening, when they played a concert at Alice Tully Hall. The program, presented by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center as part of the quartet’s 2005 Cleveland Quartet Award, included less frequently traveled works by Shostakovich and Dvorak, and a score by Juan Crisóstomo Arriaga, a 19th-century Spanish composer whose works are now finding their way into the repertory. The group opened its program with Arriaga’s String Quartet No. 3, a work that it is also playing tonight on an otherwise unrelated program at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. You can’t have too much Arriaga: this Spanish composer died in 1826, just shy of his 20th birthday, but the pieces he left — the quartets and some symphonic works — have a true spark of originality. He was called the Spanish Mozart, but his spirit and style are more akin to Beethoven’s; the opening movement of this Third Quartet bears a passing resemblance — in its rhythms and the shape of its main theme — to Beethoven’s Quartet No. 1 (Op. 18, No. 1). Even more striking are the later movements, which point toward Schubert, Brahms and Dvorak in both their melodic and textural richness.

In this wildly popular exhibit, artists re-interpret recognized world famous masterpieces to make them their own. A photograph of the original master accompanies each entry. Artists redo another artist’s complete work for various reasons — sometimes to poke fun at the original, sometimes as a joke, sometimes for style. Whatever the reason, when an artist recreates another artist’s work, particularly a masterpiece, it is called REMASTERING.
