Although freely improvised, the music of Pocket Aces is consciously compositional, given to bouts of form, groove, and crafty melodies. Distillation of ideas with a premium on space and tone provides a strong coherence as the trio navigates the familiar and unfamiliar. HOFBAUER/ROSENTHANL QUARTET, HUMAN RESOURCES (CNM033) - RELEASE DATE NOV. 9 THE HOFBAUER/ROSENTHAL QUARTET, unites four imaginative improvisors from Boston’s eclectic jazz scene. There’s a non-hierarchal notion of the ensemble in this project, an ideal of equality and a selfless determination built into every musical inclination, as they unabashedly swing at the intersection between the clarity and control of bop and the brash freedom of the avant-garde.

  • Visions&Voices: Porgy and Bess
    Visions and Voices and the USC Libraries have collaborated to create a series of resource guides that allow you to build on your experiences at many Visions and Voices events. Explore the resources listed below and continue your journey of inquiry and discovery! Porgy and Bess USC LIBRARIES RESOURCE GUIDE Tuesday, April 29, 2014, Ahmanson Theatre, Los Angeles ROSS SCIMECA of the USC Libraries has selected the following resources to help you learn more about Porgy and Bess. Introduction Porgy and Bess premiered in 1935 on Broadway in New York City. The work is a collaboration among George Gershwin, DuBose Heyward and Ira Gershwin based on Heyward’s novel and play, both named Porgy. Gershwin considered Porgy and Bess an “American folk opera,” musically integrating blues and jazz into the classical opera genre. However, the work was not really accepted as an opera until the Houston Grand Opera mounted the complete score in 1976. Nine years later, the Metropolitan Opera performed it. Porgy and Bess is now internationally recognized as a profound and unique work that it is quintessentially American in expression. The performance you will be attending is the most recent Broadway production, which opened in January 2012 and closed September 23, 2012. It was nominated for ten Tony Awards, winning Best Revival of a Musical and Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical (Audra McDonald). Synopsis The following synopsis comes from the musical’s official website at porgyandbessthemusical.com/story: On a quiet evening in Charleston’s Catfish Row, Clara and her husband Jake sing a lullaby (“Summertime”) to their baby.

Their signature blend of vocal agility and captivating showmanship has thrilled generations of fans worldwide. As they embark on the next chapter of their story, these pioneers of the genre are once again reshaping the possibilities of vocal music to create immersive and exhil arating experiences for audiences. The group’s history is a remarkable tale of renewal. In 1963, American 'born Ward Swingle assembled a group of Parisian session singers to sing Bach’s keyboard music. The resulting album, Jazz Sebastian Bach, launched the Swingle Singers to fame. Over five decades the group has sustained a level of international popularity beyond its founder’s wildest dreams, with each new singer bringing something fresh to the Swingle sound. The seven extraordinary voices that make up t oday’s young, London 'based Swingle Singers are the inheritors of an unbroken lineage going back to 1963 and share the original group’s innovative spirit. Their repertoire spans pop, classical, folk, latin and jazz music – and, for the first time in many ye ars, powerful original songs. All are delivered with unflagging passion and precision, using the human voice alone.

  • Why Do Singers Sing in the Way They
    Why do singers sing in the way they do? Why, for example, is western classical singing so different from pop singing? How is it that Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe could sing together? These are the kinds of questions which John Potter, a singer of international repute and himself the master of many styles, poses in this fascinating book, which is effectively a history of singing style. He finds the reasons to be primarily ideological rather than specifically musical. His book identifies particular historical 'moments of change' in singing technique and style, and relates these to a three-stage theory of style based on the relationship of singing to text. There is a substantial section on meaning in singing, and a discussion of how the transmission of meaning is enabled or inhibited by different varieties of style or technique.

  • 0912 BOX Program Notes
    THE BOX–music by living composers NotaRiotous Microtonal Voices Saturday, September 12, 2009 About the composers and the music Ben Johnston Johnston began as a traditional composer of art music before working with Harry Partch, helping the senior musician to build instruments and use them in the performance and recording of new compositions. After working with Partch, Johnston studied with Darius Milhaud at Mills College. It was, in fact, Partch himself who arranged for Johnston to study with Milhaud. Johnston, beginning in 1959, was also a student of John Cage, who encouraged him to follow his desires and use traditional instruments rather than electronics or newly built ones. Unskilled in carpentry and finding electronics then unreliable, Johnston struggled with how to integrate microtonality and conventional instruments for ten years, and struggled with how to integrate microtones into his compositional language through a slow process of many stages. However, since 1960 Johnston has used, almost exclusively, a system of microtonal notation based on the rational intervals of just intonation. Other works include the orchestral work Quintet for Groups (commissioned by the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra), Sonnets of Desolation (commissioned by the Swingle Singers), the opera Carmilla, the Sonata for Microtonal Piano (1964) and the Suite for Microtonal Piano (1977). Johnston has also completed ten string quartets to date. He has received many honors, including a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1959, a grant from the National Council on the Arts and Humanities in 1966, and two commissions from the Smithsonian Institution. Johnson taught composition and theory at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from 1951 to 1986 before retiring to North Carolina.
