  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

This concert will be recorded live for future broadcast. To ensure the highest-quality recording, please keep noise to a minimum. INCONCERT 19 CLASSICAL PROGRAM SUMMARY How do young artists find a unique voice? This program brings together three works, each written when their respective composers were only in their 20s. The young American Andrew Norman was already tapping into his gift for crafting vibrantly imaginative, almost hyper-active soundscapes in Unstuck, the brief but event-filled orchestral piece that opens our concert. Felix Mendelssohn had already been in the public eye as a child prodigy before he embarked on a series of travels across Europe from which he stored impressions for numerous mature compositions — including the First Piano Concerto. Just around the time Mendelssohn wrote this music, his contemporary Hector Berlioz was refining the ideas that percolate in his first completed symphonic masterpiece. The Symphonie fantastique created a sensation of its own with its evocation of a tempestuous autobiographical love affair through an unprecedentedly bold use of the expanded Romantic orchestra.

    National Conference Performing Choirs 20152015 ACDA FestivalFestival ChoirChoir UniversityUniversity ofof Utah A Cappella Choir Thursday 8:00 pm - 9:45 pm Abravanel Hall (Blue Track) Friday 8:00 pm - 9:45 pm Abravanel Hall (Gold Track) The 2015 ACDA Festival Choir includes the Utah Sym- phony Chorus, Utah Chamber Artists, the University of Utah Chamber Choir, and the University of Utah A Cappella Choir conducted by Barlow Bradford. The Utah Symphony is con- ducted by Thierry Fischer. Founded in 1962, the A Cappella Choir offers singers the opportunity to perform works for larger choirs and to fi ne- tune the art of choral singing through exposure to music from Utah Chamber Artists the Renaissance through the twenty-fi rst century. Choir mem- bers hone musicianship skills such as rhythm, sight-reading, and the understanding of complex scores. They develop an understanding of the intricacies of vocal production, includ- ing pitch, and how to blend individual voices together into a unifi ed, beautiful sound. In recent years, the A Cappella Choir has become a standard of excellence in student singing in the State of Utah. Last fall, they sang Mozart’s Trinity Mass with the Utah Symphony and the Utah Symphony Chorus under the direction of Thierry Fischer. This renewed a tradition of collaboration between the choirs of the University of Utah and the Utah Symphony, and their outstanding performance resulted in invitations for return engagements in 2015. Utah Chamber Artists was established in 1991 by Barlow University of Utah Chamber Choir Bradford and James Lee Sorenson. The ensemble comprises forty singers and forty players who create a balance and so- nority rarely found in a combined choir and orchestra.

    British Piano Concertos Stanford • Vaughan Williams Hoddinott • Williamson Finzi • Foulds • Bridge Rawsthorne • Ireland Busch • Moeran Berkeley • Scott 1 DISC ONE 77’20” The following Scherzo falls into four parts: a fluent and ascending melody; an oppressive dance in 10/6; a return to the first section and finally the culmination of the movement where SIR CHARLES VILLIERS STANFORD (1852-1924) all the previous material collides and reaches a violent apotheosis. Of considerable metrical 1-3 intricacy, this movement derives harmonically and melodically from a four-note motif. 1st Movement: Allegro moderato 15’39” Marked , the slow movement is a set of variations which unfolds in a 2nd Movement: Adagio molto 11’32” flowing 3/2 time. Inward-looking, this is the concerto’s emotional core, its wistful opening 3rd Movement: Allegro molto 10’19” for piano establishing a mood of restrained lamentation whilst the shattering brass Malcolm Binns, piano motifs introduce a more agonized form of grief, close to raging despair. The cadenza brings London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Nicholas Braithwaite some measure of peace. In the extrovert Finale, the first movement’s orchestration and metres are From SRCD219 ADD c 1985 recalled and the soloist goads the orchestra, with its ebullience restored, towards ever-greater feats of rhythmical dexterity.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Fourteen
    freewheelin-on-line take fourteen Freewheelin’ 212 I have to say that I remained a rear view passenger when it came to this month’s cover. The person who was in the driving seat, with both hands firmly on the wheel, was Phil Townsend of lazycarrot.com., and what a great collage of colour and images Phil has produced. It is of course the cover of the programme for The Third Annual John Green Day to be held at The Moat House Hotel, Northampton on the 17th May 2003. In keeping with the theme of the day, Phil has designed a ‘folkie’ type cover, the photograph coming straight from 1963 when Carolyn Hester’s hair was flowing long and Dylan’s mop was tucked under his corduroy cap. It is not Dylan’s cap that catches my eye in this picture however but rather his shirt, or to be more precise, his shirtsleeves. The young folkie clearly means business: his sleeves are rolled up to his elbows in a working man’s stance. Being an avid watcher of Dylan images, I tried to recall any official album covers where Dylan has his sleeves rolled up. Strangely the first image that came to mind was not of Dylan but was of the rail road worker with the pick axe who appears on the cover of ‘Slow Train Coming’. That was perhaps the obvious one, but then: ‘Down In The Groove’ is a proper roll up; ‘Street Legal’ looks a little rolled and ‘Empire Burlesque’ is a kind of a jacket and shirt half roll.

  • MAHLER SYMPHONY No
    MAHLER SYMPHONY No. 1 “TITAN” Fresh ! Gustav Mahler MAHLER : S YMPHONY NO. 1 The work recorded here is, of course, known everywhere as Mahler’s First Symphony. That is not, however, what Mahler thought he was writing at the time, and it took him several years to decide quite what he had wrought (and, in the process, to drop one of the movements). Was this a symphony, or did it belong rather to that alternative, more modern category, the symphonic poem? It was as an example of this latter type that the work was performed for the first time, on November 20, 1889, in Budapest, where Mahler had a post as opera conductor—though it was at the city’s main concert hall, the Vigadó, that he conducted his “Symphonic Poem.” At the next performance, in Hamburg four years later, the composition was billed as “Titan, a tone poem in symphony form,” becoming “Titan, symphony” the following year in Weimar, then finally and fully, reduced from five movements to the standard four, “Symphony in D major” in Berlin in 1896. By that time, Mahler had completed his Second Symphony and most of his Third; he knew what he was about. Some of the ambiguity, however, remains. In a tradition going back through Liszt and Berlioz to Beethoven, this is a symphony that by no means discounts narrative, even though its composer was in two minds about how much of the story to reveal, and what story. “Titan,” the title the piece briefly acquired in 1893-4, to be often revived today, presents a conundrum, for at different times Mahler seems to have explained it either with reference to a novel of the same name by Jean-Paul or simply to stand for a strong heroic figure.
