  • A Comparative Study of Four American Professional Wind Bands
    A Comparative Study of Four American Professional Wind Bands Mark Tse A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington Reading Committee: Timothy Salzman, Chair David Rahbee Giselle Wyers Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music © Copyright 2020 Mark Tse 2 University of Washington Abstract A Comparative Study of Four American Professional Wind Bands Mark Tse Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Timothy Salzman Music This study compares the repertoire, business models, and philosophies of four American professional wind bands; Dallas Winds, Lone Star Wind Orchestra, San Diego Winds, and the Royal Hawaiian Band. For the purposes of this study, “professional” is defined as generating sufficient income to pay the performers. The Royal Hawaiian Band is an outlier of professional wind bands because of its history and function. The other three bands perform two to nine concerts per season like the first American orchestras. For these young professional bands to achieve comparable success as current professional orchestras, they should make similar revolutionary leaps (not evolutionary steps) that early American orchestras made to guarantee their performers a full season of concerts, enough to provide a livable income. 3 To 爸妈 4 Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank the chair of my committee, Professor Timothy Salzman, who graciously accepted me into the program and has taught me so much, both about the world of music and the world outside of music. I will be forever indebted. Thank you to Dr. David Rahbee for taking me on as a student of orchestral conducting, giving me the wonderful opportunity to conduct the UW Campus Philharmonia, and your help in preparing me for my recital.

  • Adam Schoenberg, November 1, 2012
    A DAM S CHOENBERG American Symphony • Finding Rothko • Picture Studies MICHAEL STERN KANSAS CITY SYMPHONY A ‘PROF’ JOHNSON 24-BIT RECORDING Foreword I have dreamt of having an orchestral disc of my music since first becoming a composer. This is an extraordinary gift, and I am thrilled to be sharing my music with all of you. The three pieces that you will soon experience embody my growth from student to professional composer. They each explore different styles, but my artistic voice remains consistent throughout. Finding Rothko was written during my second year as a doctoral student at Juilliard. I was 25, and studying with John Corigliano. I spent six months writing the piece, and the experience forever shaped me as a composer. I’d show up early in the fall for lessons, wanting to discuss the work and show John material, but I was still grappling with my ideas and how to organize them. I didn’t realize until much later that John was intentionally staying out of my process. I had 2-3 months of lessons that lasted only 15-20 minutes each. We would talk, I would express my frustrations, and he would then tell me to go home and figure it out. It wasn’t until I completed a full draft that John began to weigh in. For four consecutive days, I spent hours in his studio while he asked me endless questions. We went over each measure linearly and vertically, and what I learned was immeasurable. Rothko embodies my first attempt at atmospheric and aleatoric music.
