THE ARTS

symphony season!

By Tony Centonze

Gateway Chamber Orchestra's Rob Waugh recently sat down with GCO Board Members Pamela Holz and Dave Farris to talk about the upcoming 2019 – 2020 season, and share some of the anticipated highlights from this year's Masterworks Series.

The season kicked off on Sunday, September 29, with The Artistry of Lorna McGhee, the world-renowned Principal Flute of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. The concert included a piece by Faure, Carl Reinecke's Flute Concerto performed with

Transfigured Night will be presented at APSU's Mabry Concert Hall November 3, at 4 p.m. GCO will perform pieces by Debussy and Respighi. The highlight of the show will be Schoenberg's Transfigured Night.

“It's a piece that doesn't get performed very often,” Waugh said.

“But, it was the composers most famous work. Schoenberg was most active in the 1920's and 1930's. This was the last piece he wrote in the more Romantic style. After this, he departed, and became a different composer. This piece is much heralded. It's a stringsonly concert, and this is a piece that string players wait their entire lives to play.”

the GCO, and finally, Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 4 in C minor.

Clarksville Living

The third concert in the series will be on January 26. It will feature pieces

by Mendelssohn, and French composer Jacques Ibert. The talents of APSU Cellist Meghan Berindean will be showcased on Ibert's Cello Concerto.

The show will conclude with Mozart's Serenade in Bb, k. 361/370a Gran Partita.

Waugh says he believes this concert coincides with Mozart's birthday, and points out that there is talk of cupcakes.

The regular season will conclude with the Haydn Festival, now in its second year. Performances on Thursday, April 2, and Sunday, April 5, will cover Haydn's Symphony No. 49, and then perhaps one of his most famous works, the 'Lord Nelson' Mass, which will include the Gateway Choir as well as the Sounds of Home Military and Veterans Chorus.

Sounds of Home is a new initiative that is just beginning to get some exposure. It's a local group, open to all military veterans and their family members.

“The awesome thing about a chamber orchestra as opposed to a symphony orchestra is that there is a huge library of material written for the smaller orchestra that doesn't get played or heard as often,” Waugh said. “Major composers always wrote for smaller groups. It's a very

different experience, hearing music by the best composers in a way that is usually new to audiences.”

Waugh says there is a lot more versatility in the smaller orchestra's programming as well. “The musicians have to be exceptionally excellent.

There are fewer musicians, and there is no place to hide. Chamber orchestras can perform music from 300 years ago, or now, and cross different genres as well.”

“Anna Calenza is a famous Professor of Music History at Michigan State University,” Waugh said. “She will be reading at our family concert this year.

We'll be highlighting The Nutcracker Suite, but as composed by American composer Duke Ellington, who is most famous for his Jazz music. He wrote from classical settings and adapted the music for Big Bands. GCO will perform Tchaikovsky's original, and then feature a Big Band playing the Ellington arrangement, all while Calenza narrates from her book.”

This is also the concert that will feature GCO's popular Musical Instrument Petting Zoo. Families can come early and let their kids have a chance to meet a variety of instrumentalist, see and hear the instruments in action, and ask the musicians questions.

“This is the 11th year of GCO, and the audiences get bigger each year,” Dave Farris said. “But, there are still plenty of seats at APSU's George and Sharon Mabry Concert Hall. The four concerts that comprise The Masterworks Series are performed on Sundays in Clarksville, Continued on page 12

You can actually have popcorn there, it's a former movie theater. The overall sound of the performance is different as well. It's really fun to compare and contrast between the two locations. I've done it.”

GCO musicians are composed of APSU Faculty and members of the Nashville Symphony,” Waugh said. “As well as recording musicians that work in Nashville.

What is unique is that you have access to world-class classical music close to home.

These truly are some of the best musicians in the country.”

“This past spring we went out to 12 or 13 local elementary schools,” Waugh said. “Two groups of musicians read a book called The Empty Pot, a Chinese folk story. Music was written to accompany the story, and we played it for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders over the course of a week. Over 5,000 kids got to see the program. Our plan this year is to get to the rest of Montgomery County's elementary schools.

Farris added, “what we do is about educational outreach as much as performance.”

This past year GCO held its inaugural BBQ, Brews and Beethoven at Outlaw Field, an event that will return May 16, 2020.

“With that, we tried to create a synergy between classical music, BBQ and craft beer,” Waugh said. “Our goal was to draw an audience that may never have been to a classical concert before. It was fun and relaxed, people could socialize and enjoy the BBQ and the beer. Mission BBQ and Blackhorse Brewery were great partners. It was so much fun. We went to Franklin the next day and did it again, in an old tobacco barn.”

“If people haven't checked out GCO, they are in for a treat,” Holz said. “We put on phenomenal concerts, and it's such a fun thing to do on a Sunday afternoon.

Bring the family, or come by yourself.

Some people come dressed in church clothes, others are in jeans and a buttondown shirt. Everyone is just there to enjoy the music with other music lovers. If it's something you've never tried before, it's totally worth checking out.

twenty years and fifteen minutes

By Tony Centonze

Twenty years and fifteen minutes, that's how long it took Mike Bryant to write his latest song, Take This Sinner, a gritty Country song that chronicles one man's struggle.

ago, but it was just cover songs. I did sit down last Fall and write a pretty good song. Now, I've recorded it and released it to iTunes and Spotify.

Bryant is one of Clarksville's favorite performers. He has played his guitar and sang for us for many years, and with Mike Robinson, became one-half of the duo known as Mike and Mike. Their music, humor, and friendship have been enjoyed by thousands of local music fans over the years.

“I was sitting on the couch one day, practicing the guitar. I was playing a riff that a buddy showed me 20 years ago. We always wanted to write a song from it, but could never put it together. But, that day, for some reason, I looked down at the coffee table and started singing, 'there's a bottle and a bible laying on the table, I made the wrong choice last night...' I finally had the right words, I wrote the whole song in 15 minutes.”

“I'm not really a song-writer,” Bryant said. “I did a CD several years 14

Clarksville Living

Bryant doesn't write a lot, he's new to that side of it.

“I have a lot of ideas, a verse or a chorus, or a great one-liner, but I haven't put them all together. I'm supposed to start meeting with some songwriter friends, who actually do this for a living. They're going to help me to get some of these ideas out of my head. I'm not sure how it's supposed to work. I'll just be driving down the road and something will hit me. When that happens, I'll just sing it in to my phone, but usually, there it sits.”

90's Country ballads. My album would fall somewhere between Southern Rock and Blues. Nobody listens to the type of Country I like, anymore. When you hear the song, you'll think Chris Stapleton ought to be singing that. I'm a huge fan of Chris.”

Bryant says he has never gotten some big emotional rush from hearing his songs on the radio

“I really never thought about that part of it,” He said. “I released a Gospel song a few years back. I heard it on the radio a couple of times and thought, well, that's pretty cool. Whatever is driving people to seek out that profession, I don't have it.

The whole touring the country, and being famous and all that, It's just not in me.

“Kenneth wright complimented me on my voice and asked why I hadn't gotten a record deal. I said,

He says, playing and singing are one thing but getting the ideas out, that's something else.

“I have no idea where this song came from,” Bryant said. “It had to be Holy Spirit-inspired. There were lines coming into my head, and I'm not that smart.

There are a couple of lines that these songwriters have heard now, and they're like, 'wow - that's a cool line.' The words just appeared. It's as if the song wrote itself.”

It's about a guy who is struggling between his spiritual life and his drinking habit.

He left his wife and kid, now he's battling his demons daily. Bryant says the song tells the story, but leaves the listener wondering what's going to happen.

“Corey Farlow was the first guy I sent it to,” Bryant said. “Corey said, 'yeah, I want to record it.' He changed a few words and made it a different story. He gave it closure, and structured it for Christian radio.

“Mine is more of an Outlaw Country version. It features a hot lead guitar line, and has more of a Southern Rock feel.”

Bryant hired some Nashville guys, and recorded it with a lot of slide guitar and lead-guitar work, keyboards and drums.

“We did a full-on version,” Bryant said.

“Corey's version sounds more like new Country. It has a lot of banjo and a Vibralux type guitar sound.”

Bryant might do an album someday. “I'm really a balladeer. I love the 80's and Continued on page 16

'it takes a whole lot of something that I ain't got'. He said, 'I'm going to write that - that's a song right there'. I'm just not smart enough to put all that together.”

Bryant was the subject of a story a few years back, after coming off tour with Chris Young. He was asked to stay on, but declined.

“Night after night I was five feet away from my dream,” Bryant said. “I didn't like it at all, and I've been on the road for a lot of years.

Bryant describes himself as a “goto-work, come home and work on the house kind of guy”. He says, when it comes to music, he just shows up and plays. He has never been one to sit down for a couple of hours a day and work on the 'songwriting process'.

“These prolific songwriters drive me nuts,” Bryant said. “I can't figure out how they do it. Maybe, if I sat down and studied it, I don't know. John Rich was like that. For a few years, every time there was a #1 song on the radio, it seemed like he had something to do with it.”

“My father, Soda Bryant, chased that dream for years, but wasn't much of a father. I'd rather be a good father to my son. Dad sang on some records in the1960's, but they never did anything.

It was hard to know his mind. He had a beautiful wife and five kids at home that he cared nothing about.”

Clarksville Living

“Buddy Jewel wrote half a song that was just an unreleased cut on his first album,” Bryant said. “His co-writer's first check was for about $50,000.

Today, he wouldn't hardly make any money. I don't really know how all that works.

“These small labels sign artists to record deals now, but it's not like getting a deal with RCA. The artists don't really see any money. They get some air-play, they may even win some awards at a big end-of-the-year party, but what does it mean? What good is a deal like that?”

Bryant talked about the real cost of being a musician, financial and otherwise.

It's almost like you have to pay to play when you're trying to make a name for yourself.

“I could have recorded this at home for nothing, it would have taken a few weeks and sounded pretty good,” Bryant said. “But, I called a producer friend of mine. For about $1,000 he called in all these great Nashville players, and we knocked it out in two hours. If you're going to pitch a song, spend the money. Nobody wants to hear a bad production.”

Bryant sent his song to Chris Stapleton, but hasn't heard back. He's not sure Stapleton has even heard the song, but he is still hopeful. Bryant also freely admits, he's not a big fan of Country's current trends.

“They're all using the same writers, and the same musicians,” Bryant said.

“How could it not all sound the same?

Oh well. The biggest show I ever played in my life was opening for Luke Bryan, when I was with Chris Young.

There were 40,000 people there. We also opened for Dierks Bentley. But, I have to admit - it sucks when you're not the singer.”

plush seating for its guests, a new stage for its performers, and performances are now powered by the latest technology - a necessity for the performances the Alhambra Theatre’s patrons enjoy today.

Throughout the renovation, care was taken to spare and even highlight original architectural details. Once covered, the original archway entry is now exposed and greets you upon entering the theatre. The original tiles flank the main level entry to the theatre. The Pennyroyal Arts Council oversaw a years-long renovation of the theatre with its own Executive Director Margaret Prim personally choosing Art Deco finishes and fixtures to celebrate the era of the theatre’s inception.

Possibly the most stunning new feature of the Alhambra Theatre is The Hall at the Alhambra Theatre, a brand new event space overlooking the theatre performance space as well as Main Street. With room to host approximately 80, the new space is utilized for meetings, events and is a favorite among patrons during performances.

Local Resident finds relief

By Riverside Spine & Physical Medicine

"How does your body feel when you get up in the morning or when you get out of your car? If you are dealing with pain in your every day life, stop suffering!

Pain doesn't have to be permanent." This is Dr. Allen from Riverside Spine and Physical Medicine. "Here's how one of our patients is now living pain free":

Hi, my name is Bastain, I'm 35 years old and I consider myself to be a very active person. I play sports; I run around with my kids. After a sudden injury about a year ago, I actually found myself to have a bulging disc in my back. I couldn't feel my foot at all, couldn't play sports, couldn't run around with my kids, I couldn't do anything that I enjoyed

in life. I sought medical advice from two separate doctors, and both recommended surgery. I didn't think that was in my best interest to continue my active lifestyle, so I actually sought medical advice from Dr. Allen. I actually knew him from previous treatments. He recommended chiropractic and decompression therapy.

After 20 days, I started getting the feeling back in my foot. About 60 days in, I was completely symptom free. After 90 days, I was back to living an active lifestyle. Pain doesn't have to be permanent and I realize that after Dr. Allen helped me. He gave me my lifestyle back and I am forever grateful to him. If you have pain in your neck, your hips, your back, please go see Dr. Allen.

He is phenomenal!

Halloween Pet Safety 10 things you should know

By Christina Chittenden

Halloween can be a really fun time of the year for adults and children alike. However, it isn’t always the happiest time of year for our pets. Many of them are easily spooked, upset and often go missing every year. Here are a

22

few tips to help you ensure that your pet can have a safe and happy Halloween, too: 1. Know how to determine if your pet is stressed. If you see them becoming anxious,

Clarksville Living

give them a break away from all of the excitement to let them relax.

2.Sudden loud noises can make pets very unhappy, especially when they are already on edge. In addition to keeping an eye out for situations that might overwhelm your pet, also keep your ears open.

3. Ensure that your pet has a current identification tag on at all times!

4. Never let your dog get into the Halloween candies! Remember, chocolate is extremely toxic for dogs!

5. While playing dress up with your fur baby can certainly be a fun time, it’s important to make sure that their outfits

are safe. Your pet’s costume should be simple, comfortable and not too tight.

6. Strangers continually knocking at the door can be upsetting for your pets.

Even the most human-loving pets can become overwhelmed in these situations – especially when those humans are dressed up in often frightening costumes! It might behoove you to keep your fur babies in another room, at least until the trick-or-treaters are done.

7. While animals love jack-o-lanterns, these festive pieces can be trouble as they are a fire hazard. Always be sure to check that your decorations are out of reach of your furry family members!

8. Keep your pets indoors as the increased amount of people out after dark means an increased chance of being ran over by a passing vehicle.

9. Chances are high that you will receive a guest at your door that your pet isn’t familiar with and that they may interpret as something scary. If you know your pet is easily excitable, be sure to take preventative measures before the festivities commence.

10. Doorbells and knocking on our doors can already cause craziness for our pets. Again, it may be best to keep them away from the front door on Halloween, as repeated visitors can drive some pets insane!

SUNDAY FAMILY FUN LEARNING DAY. 1:00PM - 4:00PM Thanks to electricity and modern technology, our lives are not as governed by the elements (rain, wind, sun – or lack of it) as they once were. However, when the power goes out or our machines stop working we must revert to the “old ways” of doing many things.

Without electricity people washed their clothes in tubs of water that had been heated over a big fire outside. To dry them, women laid the clothes on the ground, hung them on bushes or fences, and on clothes lines. But without the sun, they remained sopping wet.

Visit the Family Art Studio to learn how the sun dried the clothes and helped the early settlers in many other ways. Hear the story, “How the Sun Was Brought Back to the Sky” and “The Day Jimmy’s Boa Ate the Wash.” Compare how children’s illustrators “see”

the sun. Create your own sun painting or drawing. Make a clothespin person to take home.

This activity was created as part of the Tennessee STEAM Festival. The Tennessee STEAM Festival connects us to science, technology, engineering, art, and math found everyday and everywhere in order to inspire generations of STEAM champions.
