My fellow officers, directors, and I would like to welcome you to the 2019 Conductors Guild National Conference. Any event in New York City is bound to be an exciting experience, and this year’s conference promises to be one you won’t forget. We began our conference with visits to the Metropolitan Opera for a rehearsal and backstage tour, and then we were off to the Juilliard School to see some of their outstanding manuscripts and rare music collection! Our session presenters will share helpful information, insightful and inspiring thoughts, and memories of one of the 20th Century’s greatest composers and conductors, Pierre Boulez. And, what would a New York event be without a little Broadway, and Ballet? An event such as this requires dedication and work from a committed planning committee.

  • American Composers Orchestra
    AMERICAN COMPOSERS ORCHESTRA JOHN CAGE THE SEASONS (1947) The following notes were written by H. Wiley Hitchcock for the Tully Hall program booklet. THE SEASONS was composed between January and April 1947 on commission from the Ballet Society (to the director of which, Lincoln Kirstein, it is inscribed). It was first heard with the ballet by Merce Cunningham, and scenery and costumes by Isamu Noguchi, played by the Ballet Society Orchestra under Leon Barzin, on 13 May 1947 at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York. The eighteen minute score was conceived for an orchestra of 43 members and is continuous, though planned in four seasonal divisions, each preceded by its own “prelude” (with the opening Prelude to Winter reappearing to close the work). Several elements of Cage's experience in the 1930s and '40s lie behind the composition. One is, of course, his involvement with dance, which began in 1937 with work as dance accompanist at the Cornish School in Seattle (and which continues to the present). Another is his interest, growing in the 1940s, in Indian aesthetic theories: he has written that “THE SEASONS is an attempt to express the traditional Indian view of the seasons as quiescence (winter), creation (spring), preservation (summer), and destruction (fall)” — which is the order in which they are represented in the piece. Yet another is his study with Henry Cowell and Arnold Schoenberg in the 1930s, the one nurturing an interest in rhythmic possibilities, the other in integration of details of a composition with its whole: out of this background Cage developed a principle of “rhythmic structure,” according to which a sequence of proportions is determined that fixes time-lengths for both the small units of a piece (phrases, for example) and the large (sections, for example).
