A Conductor in the Making Marking Seiji Ozawa's twentieth anniversary as music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Boston Symphony Archives has mounted an exhibi- tion in the display cases in the Huntington Avenue corridor of the Cohen Wng, examining the formative years of his career. Mr. Ozawa's childhood in China and Japan, and as a student at the Toho School of Music, are richly illustrated by family photographs on loan from the Ozawa family for this exhibit. Other aspects of his early career, including his summer as a student at the Tanglewood Music Center in 1960, are documented using materials preserved in the BSO Archives. The photograph shows the Ozawa family outside their home in China, ca. 1940. Pictured are Seiji Ozawa's parents, Kaisaku and Sakura Ozawa, with (from left) their four children: Katsumi, Seiji, Toshio, and Mikio (Pon).

  • A Countertenor's Reference Guide to Operatic Repertoire
    A COUNTERTENOR’S REFERENCE GUIDE TO OPERATIC REPERTOIRE Brad Morris A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC May 2019 Committee: Christopher Scholl, Advisor Kevin Bylsma Eftychia Papanikolaou © 2019 Brad Morris All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Christopher Scholl, Advisor There are few resources available for countertenors to find operatic repertoire. The purpose of the thesis is to provide an operatic repertoire guide for countertenors, and teachers with countertenors as students. Arias were selected based on the premise that the original singer was a castrato, the original singer was a countertenor, or the role is commonly performed by countertenors of today. Information about the composer, information about the opera, and the pedagogical significance of each aria is listed within each section. Study sheets are provided after each aria to list additional resources for countertenors and teachers with countertenors as students. It is the goal that any countertenor or male soprano can find usable repertoire in this guide. iv I dedicate this thesis to all of the music educators who encouraged me on my countertenor journey and who pushed me to find my own path in this field. v PREFACE One of the hardships while working on my Master of Music degree was determining the lack of resources available to countertenors. While there are opera repertoire books for sopranos, mezzo-sopranos, tenors, baritones, and basses, none is readily available for countertenors. Although there are online resources, it requires a great deal of research to verify the validity of those sources.

  • A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University
    Sordili: Nothingness on the Move Sordili 1 Nothingness on the Move: A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University (Editor's note: Rafael Sordili's paper was selected for publication in the 2013 Agora because it was one of the best three presented at the ACTC Student Conference at Shimer College in Chicago in March 2013.) In the world inhabited by Faust, movement is a metaphysical fact: it is an expression of divine will over creation. There are, however, negative consequences to an existence governed by motion. The most prevalent of them is a feeling of nothingness and nihilism. This essay will discuss the relations between movement and such feelings in Goethe's Faust.1 It is my thesis that the assertion of his will to life, the acceptance of his own limitations, and the creation of new personal values are the tools that will ultimately enable Faust to escape nihilism. Metaphysics of Motion Faust lives in a world in which motion is the main force behind existence. During the Prologue in Heaven, three archangels give speeches in praise of the Creator, emphasizing how the world is in a constant state of movement. Raphael states that the movement of the Sun is a form of worship: "The sun proclaims its old devotion / [. .] / and still completes in thunderous motion / the circuits of its destined years" (246-248). For Gabriel, the rotation of the earth brings movement to all the elements upon its surface: "High cliffs stand deep in ocean weather, / wide foaming waves flood out and in, / and cliffs and seas rush on together / caught in the globe's unceasing spin" (251-258).

  • 2012 Annual Report from the Director
    News, Conversation, Music, Entertainment, Innovation, Community. Wisconsin Public Radio’s 2012 Annual Report From the director . While I’m not from Wisconsin, it didn’t take me long to fully embrace my new home. I grew up in New York State and have spent much of my life living up and down the east coast, from Vermont all the way down to Florida. When I moved to Wisconsin in 2008 I found myself quickly becoming a Packer fan. The idea of a team owned by the fans makes a lot of sense to me. And the fans’ passionate “Go Pack Go!” spirit reminds me of the way listeners talk about WPR: it’s the property of the people of Wisconsin and you love it deeply! While the Packers didn’t win another Super Bowl, 2012 was still an eventful year in Wisconsin. Our news team spent much of the year covering elections, from the recalls in state government to the congressional and presidential races on the federal level. Wisconsinites from every side of the aisle turned to us for accurate, honest and unbiased coverage of these important events. Our online collaborations with Wisconsin Public Television included a revamped voter information website, WisconsinVote.org, and WisconsinDrought.org, a valuable resource for those affected by the devastating heat wave last summer. Changes to our line-up included the retirement of Here on Earth host Jean Feraca, the passing of our friend and colleague Jim Packard and the addition of Mike Arnold, who serves as WPR’s Director of Content. Mike brought new perspectives to our program strategy and several new shows to our schedule.
