Dean Robert Shay:
the College of Music Advantage Changes are afoot at CU-Boulder’s College of Music, thanks to the vision of its new leader. Dean Robert Shay, a veteran music administrator with 15 years’ experience, began his tenure here in August 2014. “This is one of the great music schools in the country,” he says. “The excitement for this place is palpable.” Shay is inspired by opportunities to strengthen and expand on the College of Music’s traditions of excellence. To achieve a common vision for the college among faculty, staff, students, alumni and supporters, he launched faculty-driven taskforces to delve more deeply into areas of improvement – from diversity, technology and identifying professional settings for students outside the classroom and abroad, to growing alumni engagement and positioning the college as a leader in national and international spheres of influence. “Our greatest chance for success is to rally around a clear vision,” says Shay, who previously served as Director of the University of Missouri School of Music, and as Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the Longy School of Music. “Buy-in builds momentum to accomplish what I call the College of Music advantage." “The College of Music advantage is our edge—it's what sets us apart. At our core, we offer an amazingly rich, traditional education. But we also provide many layers of innovative and hands-on experiences that aren’t necessarily happening elsewhere.” This year, Shay anticipates progress toward realizing the College of Music advantage, with a particular emphasis on alumni engagement and student diversity. “We want to ensure pathways to success for underrepresented students and well-qualified international students,” he says. “We want this to be a place without boundaries.”

Cinderella (La Cenerentola), Sung in Italian with English surtitles
by Gioacchino Rossini Oct. 23-25, 2015 First performed less than a year after the premiere of his enduring classic, "The Barber of Seville," Gioacchino Rossini’s "La Cenerentola" (Cinderella) was just as big a hit with audiences. Full of upbeat humor and containing some of Rossini’s greatest writing for solo voice and ensembles, the beloved story of a scullery-girl-turned-princess will appeal to audiences of all ages.
Dialogues of the Carmelites, Sung in English by Francis Poulenc March 11-13, 2016 Francis Poulenc’s dark, intense 1957 opera—based on the persecution of nuns at the convent at Campiegne during the French Revolution—fearlessly grapples with such timeless human emotions as fear, despair and faith. “As rich as a vintage port, the opera delivers a soft and melodic score that undulates with (dark) and complex themes … as tragically current as (they are) old.” (Metro Weekly) The Tender Land, Sung in English
by Aaron Copland April 21-24, 2016 Copland was inspired to write his only full-length opera by the Depression-era photographs of Walker Evans and James Agee’s "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men." This classic tale of smalltown America evokes everything from "The Grapes of Wrath" to "Our Town" and "Oklahoma!" “Copland in his Americana mode. … (A)n affecting, honest and musically elegant work … bustling rhythmic intensity and pungent chromatic bite.” (The New York Times)

we’re including Brahms’ flowing and rhythmic String Quartet No. 3 in B-flat Major, Op. 67—another late work. “This is music we adore. We love the process of returning to old favorites with renewed energy and expectations.” Indeed, the quartet—in its 40th season—last performed Dvořák’s string quartet some 30 years ago. “It’s exhilarating to work with material that’s familiar in our hands, and reshape it into something new,” Fejer adds. “We already know the rip currents and potential pitfalls from both technical and musical perspectives. Hopefully, we’ve gained the wisdom to navigate these musical landscapes and more fully reveal the beauty that lies within.”
Takács Quartet: “music we adore” The Grammy Award-winning Takács Quartet—in-residence at CU-Boulder and the first string quartet to be awarded the Wigmore Hall Medal—is gearing up for another characteristically virtuosic and musically gratifying season. “We can’t wait to perform late Haydn and Shostakovich this fall,” says cellist András Fejer of Joseph Haydn’s String Quartet No. 3 in G minor, Op. 74, "The Rider," and Dmitri Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 3 in F Major, Op. 73 to be performed in September—along with Antonín Dvořák’s String Quartet No.14 in A-flat Major, Op. 105, the last string quartet he composed. “Also in the first half of the season,
In addition to Brahms’ string quartet, the November program will include Joseph Haydn’s String Quartet No. 1 in C Major, Op. 74. Stay tuned for a surprise announcement from stage in November when the Takács Quartet will also present the premiere of a new work. The chamber quartet performed some 80 concerts worldwide in the past year, coached and presented master classes in North America and Europe, and taught chamber music and individual lessons to students in Boulder. Two sets of performances at the College of Music’s Grusin Music Hall are Sunday, Sept. 20 at 4 p.m. and Monday, Sept. 21 at 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, Nov. 8 at 4 p.m. and Monday, Nov. 9 at 7:30 p.m. For tickets, visit cupresents.org or call 303-492-8008.

Cinderella (La Cenerentola): “a story of transcendence” Equal parts humor, tenderness and philosophical exploration, Gioachino Rossini’s enduring classic has something for everyone. “Right from the start, ‘Cinderella’ was a hit with audiences,” says Leigh Holman, Director of the Eklund Opera Program. “It’s hilarious, truly a comedy. But unlike the Disney version, it’s also more grounded and realistic. “There’s no glass shoe or fairy godmother. Instead, the opera brings to life all the warmth of goodness and love.” Indeed, “Cinderella” features some of Rossini’s grandest writing for solo voice and vocal ensembles. Sung in Italian and set at the turn of the 20th century, Holman describes this production as a “relatively traditional” rendering of the story of a scullery maid, featuring a tour de force for mezzo-soprano.

Make that three mezzo-sopranos. “We have so many great mezzos that we opted to triple cast the part of
‘Cinderella.’ Each of the three performances will spotlight a different mezzo in the title role,” explains Holman. “What I enjoy most about this opera are its pervasive themes of character development. ‘Cinderella’ is neglected and oppressed by an abusive father, but she learns to let that go. Because of the glorious love she’s found, forgiveness grows before regret and resentment take root. “It’s a story of transcendence.” The libretto for “Cinderella” was written by Jacopo Ferretti, based on the fairy tale “Cendrillon” by Charles Perrault. The two-act opera performed at Macky Auditorium runs: Friday, Oct. 23 at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 25 at 2 p.m. For tickets, visit cupresents.org or call 303-492-8008.

For the remarkable composer, trumpeter, educator, and activist Sean Jones, the pursuit of jazz is a most serious endeavor. Deeply influenced by his immersion in Gospel music in the church as a youth, Sean had an epiphany at the age of 19 while he was a student at Youngstown State University. The awakening was his first hearing of the magnificent John Coltrane’s masterpiece A Love Supreme . After r eceiving his Master’s Degree from Rutgers University, Sean performed a six - month stint with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra. Wynton Marsalis offered Sean a permanent position as lead trumpeter and J ones remained there until 2010, also participating in two recordings. During those years, Sean started touring and performing regularly with hi s own ensembles and began his longtime relationship with Mack Avenue Records, for whom he has just released his seventh recording. Education is also a major element in Sean’s ongoing activities. Shortly after joining the JAL CO , he began teaching at Duquesn e University in his adopted hometown of Pittsburgh, where he is currently Associate Professor of Jazz. In 2012 he also became Professor of Trumpet at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. In addition, master classes and clinics are a regular part of his activ ities, providing more than a dozen annually around the world. He also serves as Artistic Director of both the Pittsburgh and Cleveland Jazz Orchestras. A five-time “Trombonist of the Year” in the DownBeat Critics Poll, Robin Eubanks is the premier jazz trombonist of his generation. In addition to leading his own groups, EB3 and Mental Images, Eubanks has performed and composed on Grammy-winning recordings with Dave Holland and Michael Brecker. He has worked with music legends Art Blakey, McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones and the Rolling Stones, to name a few. The native Philadelphian is the recipient of composition grants from Chamber Music America

Settling in New York City in 1989, he played with numerous jazz masters, including Herbie Mann, Paquito D’Rivera, Bobby Hutcherson, Bobby Watson, Terence Blanchard and Don Byron. He has produced ten critically acclaimed albums as a
C-4
leader, including two The New York Times top ten jazz records of the year: Edward Simon and Simplicitas. In July 2010 Simon was named a Guggenheim Fellow, and his latest trio CD with bassist John Patitucci and drummer Brian Blade, Live in New York at Jazz Standard, has recently been released. Originally from Auckland, New Zealand, Matt Penman studied at Boston’s Berklee College of Music before relocating to New York in 1995. In addition to releasing his own critically acclaimed CDs as a leader, Catch of the Day (2007) and The Unquiet (2002), he has recorded as a sideman on some 70 other discs and has performed with the likes of Joe Lovano, Nicholas Payton, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Gary Bartz, Kenny Werner, Nnenna Freelon, Madeleine Peyroux, Brian Blade, John Scofield and Guillermo Klein. In addition to the Collective, Penman works with the supergroup James Farm, which includes founding Collective saxophonist Joshua Redman, pianist Aaron Parks and drummer Eric Harland.

Recognizing the importance of the arts and live vocal performance in an increasingly distracted world, longtime Boulder resident Paul Eklund made a generous gift in October 2014 to help establish a $2 million endowment at the CU-Boulder College of Music. Funding from the endowment will help support three opera productions each academic year, the CU New Opera Workshop and an opera-scenes program for new students.
