New Surprises at the Holiday Festival CU’s Holiday Festival may be a long-standing tradition, but it still has a few new tricks up its sleeve. With more than 30 years of history, the Holiday Festival is a Boulder institution. Each December, thousands in the community pay a visit to Macky Auditorium to take in the merry atmosphere and the seasonal music performed by students and faculty. The festival has its beloved traditions—swags of greenery hung from the balcony, a rendition of the catchy Nigerian carol “Betelehemu” and a “Hallelujah Chorus” singalong to cap it all off—but change is always afoot. One of this year’s most exciting changes? An added matinee performance. “Due to high demand for earlier performances, we’re offering two Saturday matinees this year,” says Gregory Gentry, the festival artistic director. “We hope this change affords our audiences the chance to bring more loved ones who don’t want a late night out.”
“We’ll have a klezmer tune, a piece called ‘Hebrew Melody’ and more,” Gentry says. “We have such a variety of faith traditions in our community, and we relish the opportunity to celebrate that.” Though he looks forward to it all, Gentry says one of his favorite parts of the festival happens before each concert begins. About an hour before showtime, festive tunes played by composer and PhD student Kevin Padworski ring out from Macky’s carillon. Then, about a half hour later, student carolers dressed in medieval costume entertain patrons in the foyer while upbeat vocal jazz warms up the crowd in the concert hall. In Gentry’s opinion, the Holiday Festival is the absolute height of holly jolly: “There’s nothing more beautiful than walking inside on a frosty December night with bells ringing and carolers singing around you.” Dec. 8–10 in Macky Auditorium · Tickets start at $20
A lot of beautiful new music awaits audiences, too, including more vocal and instrumental jazz, fresh renditions of “O Holy Night,” “I Saw Three Ships” and “We Need A Little Christmas,” and a whole set devoted to celebrating Hanukkah.

WE MENDED A FAILING
HEART ALIVE
AND KEPT THEIR ROMANCE
When you have that newlywed glow, everything seems rosy. So when Jean Richter started feeling short of breath, she wasn’t initially concerned. But then her symptoms worsened and her beloved husband, Dave, had to rush her to the Foothills Hospital Emergency Department. Jean was diagnosed with heart failure, a chronic condition that has a 50% survival rate within five years of diagnosis if not treated correctly. Luckily for Jean, Boulder Community Health now offers the only specialized Heart Failure Clinic in Boulder County. Dr. Scott Blois’s expertise with the latest treatment options set Jean on a remarkable journey back to a full active life. “I have a wonderful husband, five incredible daughters and 13 grandkids I adore,” says Jean. “I’m so happy we can hike, travel and have fun together again.”
YOU’LL NEVER HAVE TO SING FO YOUR SUPPER... YOU’LL NEVER HAVE TO SING FOR YOUR SUPPER...

Yekwon Sunwoo’s Victory Tour
To the untrained eye, it may seem as though Yekwon Sunwoo’s life revolves around the piano. But in point of fact, it revolves around pho. When he’s at home, Sunwoo makes his own steamy noodle bowls. But when he’s on the road, he’s made it his mission to seek out a pho restaurant in each new city–an impressive goal, given he’s about to embark on a long international tour. The 28 year old is fresh off that three-week keyboard gauntlet also known as the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, where he captured the coveted gold medal. Soon, he’ll give recitals in cities all over the map—including Nov. 3 at Macky Auditorium. The Cliburn, named after the Texas teen whose piano prowess brought the world together at the height of the Cold War, was founded 55 years ago. Since then, the quadrennial competition has welcomed promising young talent from all corners of the globe to Fort Worth, Texas, for an Olympic Games-like, no-holds-barred piano shootout. This year, each competitor performed before more than 4.5 million concert hall and online viewers for a chance to win $50,000, three years of representation and and a recording contract with Universal.

|
Over the course of three weeks, four rounds and six performances, Sunwoo proved his mettle with a diverse repertoire and nerves of steel. The clincher was his final chamber music performance, where his rendition of the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3 soared. “His playing was crisp and effervescent, with crystalline trills,” proclaimed The New York Times. “In a work that demanded parity, he was an ideal foil.” Sunwoo is the first Korean to win the Cliburn, which has lately been dominated by Chinese, Japanese and Russian-speaking pianists. But these days, Sunwoo is proud to call New York home. “I try to take advantage of it and just walk around the city,” he says. “I go to Central Park and see a lot of Broadway shows.” Now he’s off on his Cliburn victory lap, where he’s sure to raise more goosebumps and quietly steal more hearts. “Sunwoo … seems to have music pouring out of his fingers,” says Clavier Companion. “His musicality and elegance—combined with an economical technique and multiple variations in tone and dynamic levels—are gaining him fans.”

Comfort and Joy with Dianne Reeves
In the midst of natural disasters, political polarization and negative news headlines, everyone could use a positive pick-me-up every now and then. Singer Dianne Reeves is happy to help. “At its essence,” says Reeves, “Life is beautiful and I want to celebrate that which is too often overlooked.”
For years, the jazz vocalist has been committed to using her gift for good, spreading hope, love and joy far and wide. Judging by the fan messages she receives, it’s working: ”What food for the soul you provide,” says one. “Thank you for lifting our spirits,” says another. “Your voice continues to soar to the most special of places,” a third rhapsodizes. This December, Reeves, widely considered the world’s greatest living jazz and R&B singer, comes to Macky Auditorium for a concert of seasonal favorites and more. Reeves, who briefly studied music at CU Boulder and started out her career touring with jazz, rock and pop greats, has been on the scene for more than 30 years. She’s won five Grammys. None other than Wynton Marsalis has said hers is “one of the most powerful, purposeful and accurate voices of this or any time.” Clearly, she needs no introduction.

But even if you haven’t heard her name before, you’ve probably heard her voice. She sang on the film soundtrack for “Good Night, and Good Luck;” she’s recorded and performed extensively with the most prestigious symphonies and conductors; she’s sung at the White House numerous times; and she’s toured the world with musicians from countless genres and countries. In short, she’s seemingly been everywhere and sung everything. But what’s most extraordinary is that her ubiquity hasn’t changed her: In concert, she’s still the same inspiring ray of sunshine her fans love and crave. “Warmth, diamond-like precision and generosity, in her music and in her approach to the world at large, make her the sort of artist that is a delight to hang out with,” says the Huffington Post. “She can sing up and down the scales, interpret any song in a style that will stun you and still keep it real. What makes Dianne Reeves so mesmeric is the humility that underscores the mastery.”
Saturday, Dec. 16, 7:30 p.m. in Macky Auditorium · Tickets start at $20

The evening features an eclectic collage of chamber music written by composer Daniel Kellogg. On the program are songs, quartets, guitar music and a bassoon octet. The smashing finish will feature the wild Shakespearean farce “Pyramus and Thisbe” for two pianos and one thespian.
No artist is created without the influence of his or her teachers and mentors. Jennifer Hayghe shares some of her personal musical legacies, and Harumi Rhodes and David Requiro join her in a performance of Tchaikovsky’s “Trio,” the composer’s own monumental tribute to his mentor and friend.
