Each concert offers us the chance to enjoy the music and the special contributions of each musician and soloist. I look forward to that special feeling of anticipation before the start of each concert, the chance to listen intently to the music, and the experience of discovery and renewal that comes to at some point in almost every concert. The fall is also a period of welcoming newcomers to our Photo: Nardella Photography Inc. community and to the WSO. As we start this year, we have the pleasure of welcoming new musicians, board members, staff members, and audience members to the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. This fall we welcome a number of new musicians to the WSO Janet Liang to the first violin section, Elizabeth (Liz) Dyer to the second violin section, Daniel Perry to the double bass section, and Brendan Thompson to timpani. We wish the new musicians all the best as they begin work with our fine orchestra. On the board of directors we welcome a large number of new members, and we hope they will find the experience of working with the WSO interesting and pleasurable. Joining the administrative team is Neil Middleton, our new director of Marketing and Communications, our new Production Manager is Evan Klassen, and the new Stage Manager is Sheena Sanderson. The WSO is part of Manitoba's program for celebration... we are often called upon to mark special occasions in our province's history. To our community, we welcome and celebrate opening of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. We have included many powerful compositions with themes related to human rights in this year's program. Our hope is that the museum will add significantly to the encouragement and celebration of human rights throughout the world and will provide a context for greater dialogue within our local community. We welcome back subscribers who have been with us for many years and new concert attendees and subscribers. Our audience members are a big part of our story and the experience of listening to a live music experience changes with the energy and passion you bring to the experience. With my very best wishes for a fine year of musical enjoyment. Trudy Schroeder Executive Director Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra September – November 2014 I OVERTURE 3 CONDUCTORS Alexander Mickelthwate, Music Director German conductor Alexander Mickelthwate is renowned for his “splendid, richly idiomatic readings” (LA Weekly), “fearless” approach and “first-rate technique” (Los Angeles Times). Critics have noted Alexander’s extraordinary command over the Austro-Germanic repertoire, commenting on the “passion, profundity, emotional intensity, subtlety and degree of perfection achieved” in Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7 as “miraculous” (Anton Kuerti, 2011). Following on from his tenure as assistant conductor with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, which he completed in 2004, Alexander Mickelthwate was associate conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic for three years, under the direction of Essa-Pekka Salonen. Now in his eighth season as music director of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Alexander has significantly developed the orchestra’s profile through active community engagement and innovative programming initiatives like the annual New Music Festival and the Indigenous Music Festival. Chosen to perform at the Carnegie Hall Spring For Music Festival in New York, May 2014, due to “creative and innovative programming” (CBC Manitoba Scene), the orchestra was the only Canadian ensemble in the showcase. As well as significantly contributing to the New Music Festival and Indigenous Festival, Alexander lead the orchestra’s first out of province tour since 1979 to the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, launched the International Conducting masterclasses, the New Music Festival 2012 film project and played a major part in the acoustic overhaul of the Centennial Concert Hall. Julian Pellicano, Resident Conductor In the fall of 2014, Julian Pellicano begins his second season as resident conductor of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, where he leads the orchestra in a wide variety of programs throughout the year. He has worked with the Orquestra Sinfonica de Porto Alegre (Brazil), Hartford Symphony Orchestra, Eastern Connecticut Symphony, New Britain Symphony, Boston’s Dinosaur Annex Ensemble and Milwaukee's Present Music. In addition, Julian conducted the premiere of Martin Bresnick’s critically acclaimed opera My Friend's Story at the International Festival of Arts and Ideas and conducted at Carnegie Hall with the Yale Philharmonia Orchestra. Recognized for his work with living composers and transparent interpretations of contemporary works, he has premiered over 40 new pieces and as an artist in residence at the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival, he conducts the Norfolk Contemporary Ensemble. Julian has worked in masterclasses with Kurt Masur, Peter Eötvös, Zsolt Nagy, Martyn Brabbins, Carl St. Clair, L’Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. He holds degrees from the Peabody Conservatory, the Royal College of Music (Stockholm), and the Yale School of Music where he was awarded the 2008 Presser Music Award and the Philip F. Nelson Award. Beyond his position with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Julian also serves as music director of the University of Manitoba Symphony Orchestra.

  • A Survey of Christian Cross-Over Songwriting Core Principles and Potential for Impact
    CHRISTIAN CROSS-OVER SONGWRITING 1 A Survey of Christian Cross-Over Songwriting Core Principles and Potential for Impact Paul Malhotra A Senior Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in the Honors Program Liberty University Spring 2013 CHRISTIAN CROSS-OVER SONGWRITING 2 Acceptance of Senior Honors Thesis This Senior Honors Thesis is accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation from the Honors Program of Liberty University. ______________________________ John D. Kinchen III, D.M.A. Thesis Chair ______________________________ Michael Babcock, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Mr. Don Marsh, M.S. Committee Member ______________________________ Marilyn Gadomski, Ph.D. Assistant Honors Director ______________________________ Date CHRISTIAN CROSS-OVER SONGWRITING 3 Abstract A cross-over song has been defined as a song written by a Christian artist aimed at a mainstream audience. An understanding of the core principles of cross-over songs and their relevance in contemporary culture is essential for Christian songwriters. Six albums marked by spiritual overtones or undertones, representing a broad spectrum of contemporary cross-over music, were examined. Selected songs were critiqued by analyzing the album of origin, lyrical content, author’s expressed worldview, and level of commercial success. Renaissance art also provided a historical parallel to modern day songwriting. Recommendations were developed for Christian songwriters to craft songs with greater effectiveness to impact the culture while adhering to a biblical worldview. CHRISTIAN CROSS-OVER SONGWRITING 4 A Survey of Christian Cross-Over Songwriting An exploration of Christian cross-over music can provide an objective framework for evaluating songs and developing guidelines for Christian songwriters so they can enhance their effectiveness in communicating with their audiences.

He recorded two versions of Bach’s great composition—once in 1955 and again in 1981. It is a testament to Gould’s genius that he could record the same piece of music twice—so differently, yet each version brilliant in its own way. Glenn Gould— A State Of Wonder brings together both of Gould’s legendary performances of The Goldberg Variations for the first time in a deluxe, digitally remastered, 3-CD set. Sony Classical celebrates the 70th anniversary of Glenn Gould's birth with a collection of limited edition CDs. This beautifully packaged collection contains the cornerstones of Gould’s career that marked him as a genius of our time. A supreme intrepreter of Bach, these recordings are an essential addition to every music collection.

In fact, with 26 songs (including 13 brand new ones) and a running time of 70 minutes, it may be one of the most ambitious EPs ever released, period. And, as improbable as it sounds, there’s still more: Prior to street date, Relient K will launch an online scavenger hunt that will give fans a chance to download numerous b-sides that will not be included on the disc. The hunt begins June 16th at the band’s MySpace site and will continue through June 30th. For additional information and clues, visit: http://www.myspace.com/relientk The band typically releases an EP between studio albums. So following Five Score And Seven Years Ago – which debuted at #6 on The Billboard 200 in 2007, becoming Relient K’s highest charting album to date – the guys decided to make their latest EP something of an alternate career retrospective, comprised of b-sides, demos and other rarities from its 10 year history.
