In just the last few days, we’ve heard performances by the Conservatory’s newest ensembles—the Djembe Orchestra led by Associate Professor of West African Drumming <a href="/weedie-braimah">Weedie Braimah</a>, and students in the 鶹Ƶ Creative Music Lab directed in open-form and guided improvisation by Associate Professor of Contemporary Music and Improvisation <a href="/dana-jessen">Dana Jessen</a>. Guest artist and Brazilian pianist Helio Alves collaborated in the performances of original works with Performance and Improvisation Ensembles—ensembles dedicated to the exploration of many different world musics.</p> <p>During these final five bustling days before students head into reading period and then exams, large scale works by Johannes Brahms and Georg Frideric Handel will be heard standing alongside newer works by Jiyun Kim and André Previn. There are also two world premieres that feature appearances by both faculty and student soloists. This explosion of activity feels something akin to the thrilling finale of a fireworks display on New Year's Eve. So, join in—even from a distance. All of these concerts are free and open to the public, and all but one of them can be streamed live at concert time at <strong><a href="http://oberlin.edu/livestream">oberlin.edu/livestream</a></strong>.</p> <p>The <strong>鶹Ƶ Orchestra</strong>, conducted by <a href="/raphael-jimenez">Raphael Jiménez</a>, will give their last performance of the fall semester in Finney Chapel on <strong>Friday, December 8 at 7:30 p.m.</strong> Jihyun Kim’s <em>A Tramp in the Assembly Line</em> opens the evening. Kim describes it as “a musical panorama” inspired by scenes from Charlie Chaplin’s comedy, <em>Modern Times</em>. Previously a visiting professor at 鶹Ƶ, Kim is now composition faculty at the Washington State University.</p> <p>Voice professor and soprano <a href="/katherine-jolly">Katherine Jolly</a>&nbsp;joins the orchestra as featured soloist in the middle work, André Previn's <em>Honey and Rue</em>, a 1992 song cycle commissioned by soprano Kathleen Battle for soprano, orchestra, and jazz combo. The text is a setting of six poems by Lorain, Ohio-born writer Toni Morrison. The lives of women and African Americans are the inspiration for the poems, which use images of yearning, satisfaction, and resolution.</p> <p><img alt="Katherine Jolly" class="obj-left" height="261" src="/sites/default/files/content/conservatory/katherinejolly-web.jpg" width="250">Of the composition, Jolly said, “<em>Honey and Rue</em> is a cycle that I've lived with for 21 years. When I heard the recording and read through the score at age 15, I knew it would be a major part of my future career. It was on my bucket list, understanding that I needed to be much older to truly sing it with the technique and depth it deserves. <em>Honey and Rue</em> is a retrospective exploration of a black woman's existence, moving through and back to slavery. I am very honored to sing the 鶹Ƶ debut, just seven miles from where Toni Morrison grew up in Lorain.”</p> <p>The orchestra closes the evening with Brahms’ monumental Symphony No. 4— a piece that is at once emotionally despairing and resigned while astonishing and inspirational in its compositional virtuosity.</p> <hr> <p>Opportunities to hear our students and faculty perform <strong>chamber music</strong> abound on <strong>Saturday and Sunday, December 9 and 10</strong>. Things get underway at <strong>2:30 p.m. on Saturday</strong> in Kulas Recital Hall with small ensemble works that center <strong>classical guitar</strong>.</p> <p><strong>Six quartets</strong> in 鶹Ƶ’s Advanced String Quartet Seminar will follow on the final <strong>ChamberFest! </strong>performance of the semester at <strong>4:30 p.m.</strong>, where audiences will hear performances of six of Ludwig van Beethoven’s middle and late quartets. This seminar is a serious and intense immersion into the world of the string quartet, directed by 鶹Ƶ faculty and string quartet specialists, <a href="/sibbi-bernhardsson">Sibbi Bernhardsson</a> and <a href="http://www.oberlin.edu/kirsten-docter">Kirsten Docter</a>. The program recently celebrated great success in the launch of 鶹Ƶ’s fully undergraduate Poiesis Quartet, winner of the 2023 Fischoff National Chamber Music last May.</p> <p>Saturday evening brings the works of four masterful composers for the keyboard—Camille Saint-Saëns, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Maurice Ravel, and Franz Schubert—to 鶹Ƶ’s <strong>Piano Duo Fest</strong>. Hear four sets of student pianist duos perform in Warner Concert Hall at <strong>7:30 p.m</strong>. (<strong><em>This concert is in-person only.)</em></strong></p> <p><strong>Faculty and guest artists</strong> perform a sonata program in Kulas Recital Hall at 1<strong>2:30 p.m. on Sunday</strong>. Hear flutist <a href="http://www.oberlin.edu/alexa-still">Alexa Still</a>, violinist Grigory Kalinovsky, and pianists <a href="/tony-weinstein">Anthony Weinstein</a> and <a href="/tatiana-lokhina">Tatiana Lokhina</a> in works by Gabriel Fauré, Anton Rubinstein, and César Franck.</p> <hr> <p><strong>Vocal ensembles</strong> are also featured prominently this weekend. The a cappella early music ensemble <strong>Collegium Musicum 鶹Ƶiense</strong>, under the direction of <a href="/steven-plank">Steven Plank</a>, performs their program twice in the intimate setting of Fairchild Chapel at <strong>7:30 p.m.</strong> on <strong>Friday and Saturday, December 8 and 9</strong>. The program centers on the music of Henry Purcell, opening and closing with his celebratory anthem in five-part harmony, I was glad. Additional works by William Byrd, Thomas Tallis, and Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, among others, fill out the offering.</p> <p>The collective forces of <strong>Musical Union</strong>—the nation’s second longest-standing choral tradition—and <strong>鶹Ƶ College Choir</strong> will perform <strong>Handel’s complete Messiah</strong> with the <strong>鶹Ƶ Chamber Orchestra</strong> and numerous student vocal soloists on <strong>Sunday, December 10 at 2:30 p.m.</strong> in Finney Chapel.</p> <p><img alt="Gregory Ristow" class="obj-left" height="296" src="/sites/default/files/content/conservatory/gregristow-058_copy.jpg" width="250">鶹Ƶ Conservatory Director of Choral Ensembles <a href="/gregory-ristow">Gregory Ristow</a> says, “We've been so lucky to have faculty members <a href="/edwin-huizinga-06">Edwin Huizinga</a> and <a href="/rebecca-reed">Rebecca Landell Reed</a> from our Historical Performance Program work with our string players and share more about styles of playing and bowing that are unique to the Baroque era. Their suggestions have really helped the piece come alive, with the articulations jumping off the page.”</p> <p>鶹Ƶ’s Professor of Musicology <a href="/charles-mcguire">Charles McGuire</a> writes, “<em>Messiah </em>was one of the compositions that helped form the canon of concert-hall music we have today, for better or worse. Many choirs were formed in the 19th century specifically to sing <em>Messiah</em>. And performances of <em>Messiah</em> have funded many a charitable undertaking, including 鶹Ƶ. The Musical Union’s (MU) first performance of the oratorio was in 1849. Between 1878 and 1917, and in most years thereafter, MU gave an annual performance of <em>Messiah</em> in December. These performances were sought-after tickets and the excellence of the Musical Union was reported on nationally, and they raised a great deal of money for our institution.”</p> <p>Ristow continues, “It's been so many years since 鶹Ƶ has presented a full performance of Handel's&nbsp;<em>Messiah</em>, and I'm thrilled with how everyone is sounding. If you haven't experienced the whole&nbsp;thing before, it's an experience not to be missed!”</p> <p>Immediately preceding this full performance, the Credo music organization will team up with 鶹Ƶ once again in its annual <strong>“Messiah Sing Along” at 1:30 p.m.</strong> For a dozen years now, Credo has presented this event. The organization's director and 鶹Ƶ viola professor <a href="/peter-slowik">Peter Slowik</a> says, "As Credo celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, we are so grateful to call 鶹Ƶ our home.&nbsp;This year's hybrid format is a result of two great ideas coming together! We are delighted to come alongside the Conservatory's production of <em>Messiah</em> this year, and we look forward to the continuation of the sing-along tradition next year.</p> <hr> <p>The Conservatory’s last performance of the semester is with <strong>鶹Ƶ’s Contemporary Music Ensemble and Sinfonietta</strong> under the direction of <a href="/timothy-weiss">Timothy Weiss</a>. Their relatively rare appearance in Finney Chapel is at <strong>7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 12</strong>. These ensembles regularly perform works by women and 鶹Ƶ alumni composers, and they are acclaimed for their commitment to giving world premiere performances. This concert is no different: <strong>Two world premieres</strong>—one by student composer Cashel Day-Lewis and the other by faculty composer <a href="/jesse-jones">Jesse Jones</a> are also solo vehicles for a student violin soloist Max Ball, and voice professor <a href="/timothy-lefebvre">Timothy LeFebvre</a>, baritone. Weiss has also programmed pieces by Carolina Heredia and Lotta Wennäkoski. Completing the program, is the 2022 composition <em>Neshamah </em>by&nbsp;鶹Ƶ alumnus and composer David Serkin Ludwig ’95.&nbsp;The <em>New York Times</em>, has described that “Ludwig orchestrates with the skill and sophistication of a Ravel, and generates the power and thrills of a John Williams adventure film score.”</p> <p>Clearly, there is something for everyone over the next five days.

Performances will take place in Finney Chapel on <a href="https://calendar.oberlin.edu/event/concert_oberlin_orchestra_2978">April 6 (Annie Qin)</a>, <a href="https://calendar.oberlin.edu/event/concert_chamber_orchestra_4176">April 14 (Matthew Cone)</a>, <a href="https://calendar.oberlin.edu/event/concert_oberlin_sinfonietta_chamber_orchestra">April 28 (Kylie Buckham)</a>, and <a href="https://calendar.oberlin.edu/event/concert_oberlin_orchestra_2204">May 5 (Jonathan Kronheimer)</a>.</p> <p>Conductor <a href="/raphael-jimenez">Raphael Jiménez</a> shares, “Our conservatory students are extremely supportive of each other, and one cannot find a better example than in the performances of the concerto competition winners. When preparing these concerts, I can feel how every member of the orchestra is happy and proud to be part of this special day in the performance career of one of their classmates.”</p> <p>The competition was open to all fourth- and fifth-year performance majors, as well as artist diploma students. The first rounds were adjudicated by Conservatory faculty, while the public final round was adjudicated by a guest jury.</p> <p>Final round judges included pianist Ilya Poletaev of McGill University’s Schulich School of Music; violinist Kevork Mardirossian of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music; baritone Randall Scarlata of the Peabody Conservatory at Johns Hopkins University; and bassoonist Christopher Sales of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music.</p> <h2><strong>About the winners</strong></h2> <p>Pianist Annie Qin is a student of Professor <a href="/angela-cheng">Angela Cheng</a>. During her undergraduate years at 鶹Ƶ she has performed in the 2020 Danenberg Honors Recital, won the Conservatory’s Rudolf Serkin Prize in May 2021, and also received third prize in the Peter Takacs Beethoven Piano Competition in November 2021. That same year, Qin performed Rachmaninoff’s second piano concerto with Xiamen Song &amp; Dance Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Xiaotang Xia and soon after, she was awarded first prize at Beijing International Piano Festival Competition. This year, Qin received the second prize at the 7th Paderewski International Piano Competition and was a finalist in the New York International Piano Competition. She has performed a range of repertoire from works with the 鶹Ƶ Contemporary Music Ensemble to the “Back to Bach” Project. Reflecting on her performance of the Rachmaninoff concerto, Qin shares, “I think my overall perception of the piece is changing as time passes. Now I’m more fascinated with its huge emotional depth and the imaginative musical language.”&nbsp;</p> <p>Matthew Cone is currently a fourth-year violin student at 鶹Ƶ Conservatory, studying with Professor <a href="/sibbi-bernhardsson">Sibbi Bernhardsson</a>. Cone began his violin studies with Cindy Lin at the age of 5, and has since worked with George Taylor, viola professor at the Eastman School of Music, and Renée Jolles, a professor of violin, also at Eastman. An avid chamber and orchestral musician, he has attended numerous summer festivals including Bravo Workshop, Credo, Kinhaven Music School, Boston University Tanglewood Institute, Castleman Quartet Program, Bowdoin International Music Festival, and the Heifetz International Music Institute Ashkenasi-Kirshbaum Chamber Music Seminar. Over the past few years, he has had the opportunity to work with artists including Peter Zazofsky, Dennis Kim, Charles Castleman, Augustin Hadelich, Paul Huang, Desirée Ruhstrat, Rachel Barton Pine, Almita Vamos, Grigory Kalinovsky, and Shmuel Ashkenasi. In 2017, he earned third place in the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra Young Artist Violin Competition. During the summer of 2019, he performed Tchaikovsky’s Meditation with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. As Cone prepares for his date with the 鶹Ƶ Chamber Orchestra, he feels, “performing Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No. 2 is incredibly challenging, in terms of both stamina and technique, so I've been learning how to manage my energy during performance.”</p> <p>Soprano Kylie Buckham is a student of 鶹Ƶ voice professor <a href="/kendra-colton">Kendra Colton</a>, and has participated and placed first in several district and regional NATS competitions and the ENKOR International Music Competition. Outside of 鶹Ƶ, Buckham has performed as a chorus member in Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with both the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and has covered and performed the title role in <em>Cendrillon</em> with the Chicago Summer Opera Theater. Highlights of her undergraduate work at 鶹Ƶ includes performances of the role of Alice 2 in the 鶹Ƶ Opera Commissioning Program world-premiere performances of <em>Alice Tierney</em> in January 2023. Buckham has performed as a soloist in Francis Poulenc’s Gloria as well as the oratorios <em>Elijah</em>, by Felix Mendelssohn, and Handel’s <em>Messiah</em>. Buckham has sung in the 鶹Ƶ College Choir, Chamber Singers, and Musical Union, and has also performed several roles in 鶹Ƶ Opera Theater’s main stage productions including Elisetta in Cimarosa’s <em>Il matrimonio segreto</em> (2022), Catherine in Offenbach’s <em>Le mariage aux lanternes</em> (2022), and in the chorus for both <em>Acis and Galatea</em> (2021) and <em>Candide</em> (2023). Buckham is enthralled with Haydn’s <em>Berenice, che fai?</em>, saying, “The variety of emotion within the cavatina and cabaletta, the recitative, and the language itself was something I felt needed to be shared.”</p> <p>Oboist Jonathan Kronheimer is a student of Professor <a href="/robert-walters">Robert Walters</a> at 鶹Ƶ. Kronheimer grew up near Boston, and began playing oboe at age 8. After working with Jane Harrison at the All Newton Music School for 10 years, he began studying with Mark McEwen of the Boston Symphony. Kronheimer participated in the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America during their 2019 season, and is also a former member of the Boston Youth Symphony. Kronheimer is excited to present a piece of 鶹Ƶ history, explaining, “Walter Aschaffenburg ’51 was an 鶹Ƶ alumnus, and the composition professor at 鶹Ƶ when he wrote it. He wrote the concerto for James Caldwell, the oboe professor here at the time, who premiered it in Finney Chapel—the exact venue where it will be performed by the 鶹Ƶ Orchestra this spring.”</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-subhead field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Four Conservatory students to perform with the 鶹Ƶ orchestras in April and May 2023.</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-type field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item">News Story</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2023-03-29T12:00:00Z">Wed, 03/29/2023 - 12:00</time> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-author field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Joshua Reinier</div> <div class="text-content field field--name-field-intro-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Each fall, 鶹Ƶ Conservatory seniors have the opportunity to compete in the annual Concerto Competition, with the top four winners featured in the spring as soloists with the 鶹Ƶ orchestras.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2410">Students</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2373">Awards and Honors</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=2356">Conservatory</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?tag=3879">Performances</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-programs field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=35116">Violin</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=35596">Voice</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=37361">Oboe</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news?program=29541">Piano</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-faculty field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/angela-cheng" hreflang="und">Angela Cheng</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/sibbi-bernhardsson" hreflang="und">Sibbi Bernhardsson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/robert-walters" hreflang="und">Robert Walters</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/raphael-jimenez" hreflang="und">Raphael Jiménez</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-departments field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/conducting-and-ensembles" hreflang="und">Conducting and Ensembles</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/vocal-studies" hreflang="und">Vocal Studies</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/strings" hreflang="und">Strings</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/winds-brass-and-percussion" hreflang="und">Winds, Brass, and Percussion</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/conservatory/divisions/keyboard-studies" hreflang="und">Keyboard Studies</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-pin-school-page field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">Off</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-photo-gallery-top field--type-boolean field--label-hidden field__item">false</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-image-credit field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Images courtesy of each performer</div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-media field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/width_760/public/content/news/image/concerto-competition.png?itok=KUfM-2tD" width="760" height="570" alt="The four winners"> </div> Wed, 29 Mar 2023 20:52:32 +0000 jreinier 453834 at
