Third edition February 24 – March 8, 2007 Walter Boudreau and Denys Bouliane, Artistic directors MNM & McGill University Montreal, Thursday 15 February 2007 - for immediate distribution. The Montreal International Festival of New Music is proud to have been associated, since its foundation, with the Schulich School of Music at the McGill University as its "great partner". With its international orientation and the priority that it accords to the integration of new technology, the Schulich School of Music at McGill University, under the dynamic direction of its dean, Don McLean, is at the forefront of developments in new music. The 2007 edition of the Festival offers ample evidence of this vitality, with four conductors, seven composers, five soloists and no less than eight ensembles directly linked to McGill, not to mention the four foreign composers invited for the occasion: Maura Lanza (Italy), Martin Matalon (Argentina), Manfred Stahnke and Moritz Eggert (Germany), or the 13 talks, lectures and master-classes. We are proud of this partnership with the University of McGill which contributes to the takeover of new music performance both here and abroad. Four conductors We would like to underline first the exceptional role of Denys Bouliane, conductor, composer, professor of composition and artistic director of the McGill Contemporary Music Ensemble (CME). Denys Bouliane has also been the artistic co-director of the festival Montréal/Nouvelles Musiques since its creation and has contributed in a major way to its establishment. A pillar of the partnership between McGill University and the Festival, Denys Bouliane remains at the heart of the development of new music at McGill and his role extends to both the national and international communities. Seven composers For a young composer only 32 years old, Mauro Lanza, visiting prefessor in composition at the University of McGill in 2004-2005, has followed an exceptional international career, taking in Paris, Venice, Strasbourg, Amsterdam, Montréal, Basle, Geneva, and Cuneo. His work entitled Cane, commissioned by the Fondation Daniel Langlois with the help of the Digital composition studio, will be first performed in the concert of the SMCQ on March 7. Five soloists: The cellist Matt Haimovitz is recognized as on of the most adventurous artists in classical music, being active also as a performer in chamber ensembles and as a soloist in recitals and concertos in the great concert halls, as well as in new forms of representation. Professor of violoncello at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University, he will play a concerto with the McGill Symphony Orchestra, as well the Guerriers du violoncelle ("Warriors of the cello") with his own ensemble « Ucello ». Eight ensembles: Of the 23 ensembles in the Festival, eight come to us from the reputed Schulich School of Music at McGill University: (Capella McGill, Digital Composition Studio, Lloyd Carr-Harris Quartet, McGill Contemporary Music Ensemble, McGill Percussion Ensemble, McGill Symphony Orchestra, Schulich Quartet, Uccello), evidence of the exceptional level of this University which is recognized world-wide. Thirteen talks, lectures and master classes: During the whole of the Festival the Schulich School of Music at McGill University will host a number of composers and performers from here and elsewhere, who will let us hear their music and who will have l exchanges with young composers in master classes. This will provide an unique opportunity to have in Montreal the German composers Manfred Stahnke and Moritz Eggert , as well as the Italian, Mauro Lanza and the Argentinian Martin Matalon. We may moreover discover or re-discover the musical personalities of Michel Gonneville, Chris-Paul Harman et Paul Frehner. These encounters certainly represent an ideal way of taking advantage of the presence here of these exceptional musiciants. -30- Source Société de musique contemporaine du Québec (SMCQ) www.smcq.qc.ca Attaché de presse : Alain Labonté communications : (514) 523-9922 [email protected] Conductors Bouliane, Denys Denys Bouliane is one of the nation’s best-known composers at the international level. Initially trained in performance and composition at Laval University (in Quebec City), he later continued his studies abroad, notably with György Ligeti in Hamburg (1980-1985). Currently dividing his time between Montreal and Cologne, he has been director of the New Music Society in Cologne of Ensemble Série B and composer- in-residence for the Orchestre symphonique de Québec. In 1995, he founded the Rencontres de musique nouvelle at the Domaine Forget, and subsequently co-directed the Québec-Musiques-au-présent Festival (1998-2000). In September of that year he was appointed professor of composition at McGill University and general director of the Ensemble de musique contemporaine at McGill as well as a member of the artistic committee of the SMCQ. Bouliane has also garnered several Prix Opus, awarded each year by the Conseil québecois de la musique, in categories that include “Personality of the Year” (1999. With Walter Boudreau he was the artistic co-director of the colossal, multi-authored Millennium Symphony (2000) and organised the first Montreal/New Music International Festival (2003), for which he earned the award “Co-Artistic Director of the Year” (2003). Peter Niklas Wilson has described Bouliane’s music as “Music of Magic Realism, akin to a virtuoso game of criticism bordering on stylistic mystification, following in the footsteps of Jorge-Luis Borges, Italo Calvino and Boris Vian.” His œuvre consists of more than forty works, including the prize-winning Jeux de société (1982 CBC Competition for Young Composers Grand Prize, and the 1982 Gaudeamus Foundation Competition), and À propos… et le Baron perché? (Jules Léger Prize).

    The Hours Begin to Sing Songs by American Composers Performed by Soprano Lisa Delan New Cd Released by Pentatone Classics

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE HOURS BEGIN TO SING SONGS BY AMERICAN COMPOSERS PERFORMED BY SOPRANO LISA DELAN NEW CD RELEASED BY PENTATONE CLASSICS A new CD, The Hours Begin to Sing, with songs by American composers performed by soprano Lisa Delan, has just been released on the PentaTone Classics label (PTC 5186 459). The recording features the art songs of William Bolcom, John Corigliano, David Garner, Gordon Getty, Jake Heggie and Luna Pearl Woolf and is the partner CD to the 2009 album And If The Song Be Worth A Smile. Ms. Delan and pianist Kristin Pankonin, joined by guest artists Matt Haimovitz, David Krakauer and Maxim Rubtsov, present four premiere recordings, three of which were written specifically for this disc. 2 Ms. Delan states, “To be part of the creative process of new songs from their inception to fruition is an exhilarating – and altogether humbling – experience. Myriad externalities influence the direction of the journey from the moment the text speaks to a composer until the moment the performers speak the text, but the great wonder is in what happens in-between, in the mind and hand of the composer.” Contents of the CD PentaTone Classics (PTC 5186 459) THE HOURS BEGIN TO SING Lisa Delan, soprano Kristin Pankonin, piano Matt Haimovitz, cello David Krakauer, clarinet Maxim Rubtsov, flute Jake Heggie (1961) – From The Book of Nightmares For Soprano, Cello, and Piano Poems by Galway Kinnell I.

    Haimovitz Plays Bach Matt Haimovitz, Cello

    Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2015-16 | 27th Season Special Events Haimovitz Plays Bach Matt Haimovitz, cello Thursday, October 22, 8:00 p.m. Saturday, October 24, 8:00 p.m. From the Executive Director This October has been such a full and rewarding month so far. We celebrated John Luther Adams, recipient of the William Schuman Award, with three New York premiere concerts that captivated audiences with soundscapes inspired by the Arctic. We also opened our Early Music series with a screening of La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc accompanied by a medieval score devised and sung by the Orlando Consort. This week, Matt Haimovitz performs on the Miller stage and around Columbia’s campus, bringing Bach and new works to audiences in a myriad of spaces, and it has been lovely to see students and professors stumble upon a cello suite on their walks to class. Matt and I share a passion for bringing classical music to new audiences, and watching Matt deliver these suites to the Columbia community has been inspiring. Haimovitz Plays Bach culminates here at Miller with the presentation of the complete Bach Cello Suites and six accompanying new overtures. Each overture is a unique reflection of the composer’s experience with and interpretation of Bach. Next Tuesday, Ensemble Signal returns to continue our Pop-Up Concert series. This time, they’ll present pieces that inspire them as artists with an amazing repertoire that features solos for violin and cimbalom. In a few weeks, we kick off November and our Jazz series with the return of the incomparable Anat Cohen.

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: a QUESTION of NATIONALISM a Thesis Submitted in Partial Satis

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: A QUESTION OF NATIONALISM A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music by Ronald Frederick Erin August, 1983 J:lhe Thesis of Ronald Frederick Erin is approved: California StD. te Universi tJr, Northridge ii PREFACE This thesis represents a survey of Canadian music since 1940 within the conceptual framework of 'nationalism'. By this selec- tive approach, it does not represent a conclusive view of Canadian music nor does this paper wish to ascribe national priorities more importance than is due. However, Canada has a unique relationship to the question of nationalism. All the arts, including music, have shared in the convolutions of national identity. The rela- tionship between music and nationalism takes on great significance in a country that has claimed cultural independence only in the last 40 years. Therefore, witnessed by Canadian critical res- ponse, the question of national identity in music has become an important factor. \ In utilizing a national focus, I have attempted to give a progressive, accumulative direction to the six chapters covered in this discussion. At the same time, I have attempted to make each chapter self-contained, in order to increase the paper's effective- ness as a reference tool. If the reader wishes to refer back to information on the CBC's CRI-SM record label or the Canadian League of Composers, this informati6n will be found in Chapter IV. Simi- larly, work employing Indian texts will be found in Chapter V. Therefore, a certain amount of redundancy is unavoidable when interconnecting various components.

    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2019

    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2019 This is the seventeenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2018-November 2019). The 128 selections have come from 27 members of the team and 65 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources; I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, one has received three nominations: An English Coronation on Signum Classics and ten have received two nominations: Gounod’s Faust on Bru Zane Matthias Goerne’s Schumann Lieder on Harmonia Mundi Prokofiev’s Romeo & Juliet choreographed by John Cranko on C Major Marx’s Herbstymphonie on CPO Weinberg symphonies on DG Shostakovich piano works on Hyperion Late Beethoven sonatas on Hyperion Korngold orchestral works on Chandos Coates orchestral works on Chandos Music connected to Leonardo da Vinci on Alpha Hyperion was this year’s leading label with nine nominations, just ahead of C Major with eight. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2300 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year one recording in particular put itself forward as the obvious candidate.

  • Integrated Balance Sheet 2019

    Integrated Balance Sheet 2019

    Integrated balance sheet 2019 2019 was a unique year for the Accademia. 2019 marked the 15th year anniversary of M Antonio Pappano’s appointment as musical director to the Accademia. It was important to celebrate this anniversary since it is thanks to Mr. Pappano’s patient and passionate work with the orchestra, Mr. Visco and his choir, as well as his great collaboration with all of the Academia’s different ensembles ‐ in particular with the artistic direction‐ and his constant and productive dialogue with the administration/presidency, that the artistic ensembles were able to achieve a growth of international level. Visiting the world capitals from the several tours that were organized, using new technology that allowed the Accademia to reach new audiences( for instance thanks to the PappanoinWeb), and carrying out an in depth repertoire analysis, ranging from classical to contemporary music, were all strategies that created new opportunities for the Accademia to develop culturally, grow the admiration of members, partners and journalists, and mature artistically. The Accademia will always have immense gratitude and admiration towards Mr. Pappano, since without him all of this would not have been possible. On this note, the new symphonic season has the mark of the musical director, launching it with his signature phrase “Caro Pubblico!” In fact, it is this very greeting that Mr. Pappano usually uses to welcome audiences, ready to witness a new performance, within a new stylistic framework that seeks to touch their heart/feelings; just a few words used to accompany the audience into a new musical journey. In the new symphonic season, this kind of greeting will be used at start of every performance, either by Mr.
