The qualitative case study was used and interviews with four participants, or cases, shed light onto the focus of the study. Four novelists who fit certain criteria were selected: (a) they have invented, designed, and produced creative work regularly and their work has influenced Turkish literature; (b) they were Turkish citizens who have lived 75% of their lives in Turkey and received their education in Turkey; and (c) they varied in age and gender.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract During the first half of the twentieth century, the ethnically segmented Ottoman empire was transformed into a nation state of Turkish citizens. This thesis explores and evaluates the representation of ethnic minorities in Turkish fiction against a background of demographic, political, and social change. Within this context, novels and short stories of selected writers have been studied with a view to determining differences of experience, perception and attitude. The writers include: Huseyin Rahmi Giirpmar, Halide Edip Adivar, Re§at Nuri Guntekin, Halikarnas Bahk9isi, Orhan Kemal, Haldun Taner, Sait Faik, and Ya§ar Kemal. The thesis comprises an introduction, three chapters and a conclusion. The Introduction gives a brief overview of historical events relating to demographic changes and ethnic minority status, and looks at the popular perception of minorities in the Ottoman performance arts.

  • Music Director Riccardo Muti Leads Two Programs to Conclude the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's 125Th Season
    For Immediate Release: Press Contacts: June 2, 2016 Eileen Chambers, 312-294-3092 Photos Available By Request [email protected] MUSIC DIRECTOR RICCARDO MUTI LEADS TWO PROGRAMS TO CONCLUDE THE CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA’S 125TH SEASON June 16–26, 2016 Muti Leads Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto with Julia Fischer as Soloist (June 16–21) Muti Leads an All-Bruckner Program including the Symphony No. 9 and Te Deum featuring the Chicago Symphony Chorus and Soloists (June 23–26) CHICAGO—Music Director Riccardo Muti returns in June to lead the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in two programs to conclude the 125th season (June 16–26). Throughout the 2015/16 season, Muti and the Orchestra have honored the ensemble’s distinguished history with performances of works that received either their world or U.S. premieres from the CSO. The final season program includes two of these works—Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9, which was given its U.S. premiere by the CSO in 1904, and his choral masterwork, Te Deum, which was given its U.S. premiere by the CSO in 1892. Both premieres were led by the CSO’s first music director, Theodore Thomas. Muti opens his June residency with the CSO with a program (June 16–21) that includes Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto with Julia Fischer as soloist. Originally composed as chamber music, Brahms later adapted his Serenade No. 1 for full orchestra, offering a preview of the rich compositional style that would emerge in his four symphonies. The six-movement work is filled with lyrical wind and string passages, as well as exuberant writing in the allegro and scherzo movements.

Johnson (212) 875-5718; [email protected] THE BACH VARIATIONS: A PHILHARMONIC FESTIVAL MARCH 6–APRIL 6, 2013 PROGRAM II OF IV Alan Gilbert To Conduct Mass in B minor With Soprano Dorothea Röschmann, Mezzo-Soprano Anne Sofie von Otter, Tenor Steve Davislim, and Bass-Baritone Eric Owens with the New York Choral Artists March 13–16 The New York Philharmonic will present The Bach Variations: A Philharmonic Festival March 6–April 6, 2013. On the festival’s second orchestral program, Alan Gilbert will conduct the Philharmonic in Bach’s Mass in B minor, with soprano Dorothea Röschmann, mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter, tenor Steve Davislim, bass-baritone Eric Owens, and the New York Choral Artists, Joseph Flummerfelt, director, Wednesday, March 13, 2013, at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, March 14 at 7:30 p.m.; Friday, March 15 at 8:00 p.m.; and Saturday, March 16 at 8:00 p.m. “The Mass in B minor is a consummate masterpiece that makes me feel humble as a musician when I hear it,” Alan Gilbert said. “Bach took a liturgical, religious starting point and made it even more universal. No matter what you believe, no matter your religious credo, or whether or not you even have a religious credo, it is impossible not to be incredibly moved by this music because it speaks from one human being directly into the heart of another. I feel very privileged to be able to touch this music.” The Bach Variations marks the first time the New York Philharmonic has presented a festival of the music of the Baroque master.

  • Biography Il Canto Di Orfeo the Vocal and Instrumental Ensemble Il Canto D'orfeo, Founded in 2005 by Its Conductor Gianluca Ca
    Biography Il Canto di Orfeo The vocal and instrumental ensemble Il Canto d'Orfeo, founded in 2005 by its conductor Gianluca Capuano, attempts to develop and refine the musical experiences matured during the group's intense concert activity of recent years. One of the most important strengths of the ensemble is the performance and recording of music by Giacomo Carissimi (of whom Maestro Capuano is among the leading scholars), his students (above all Charpentier, Kerll e Bernhard) as well as other composers who were active in Rome during the same period such as Luigi Rossi. The ensemble's repertoire includes many of the most important works composed between 1600 and 1750 as well as music spanning from the late renaissance to the present day. Il Canto d'Orfeo is comprised of some of the finest singers and instrumentalists specializing in early music performance practices. Thanks to the important collaboration of some of the most prestigious musicologists dedicated to the study of Renaissance and Baroque music, the ensemble considers one of its most important missions to be that of the rediscovery of repertoire written by composers who are unknown to the public at large as well as the more seldom performed works of the more famous masters. Il Canto d'Orfeo, together with the mezzosoprano Catherine King, has recorded a CD dedicated to the music of Baldassarre Galuppi for the English label, Avie Records, containing arias from the composer's operas. The recording was named "CD of the Month" and "Editor's Choice" by the prestigious British magazine Gramophone. Between 2006 and 2009 the group organized “Pietre Sonore", an international early music festival which took place at the Basilica of San Sempliciano in Milan.
