This December, the holidays are a fiddling family affair By Becca Vaclavik Nova Scotia native Natalie MacMaster came from a musical family. She grew up playing the family’s piano, singing Gaelic songs and learning to dance from her mother. Her uncle, Buddy, was an internationally renowned fiddle player. When she was 9, she was gifted her first small fiddle of her own— she says she took to it naturally. Donnell Leahy, too, was raised with musical roots. Along with his 10 siblings, he fronted The Leahy Family (known simply as Leahy now), a folk family band that has been performing internationally since the 1980s. It only makes sense, then, that Natalie and Donnell— now Canada’s reigning couple of celtic music—share that gift with their seven children, too. “It’s like eating your vegetables. We feel it’s important for our kids’ growth that they learn music in some capacity. And they’re all interested because they see everyone else do it. Even our one-and-a-half year old cries for the fiddle when someone else has one and she doesn’t.”

Natalie and Donnell homeschool their children and keep stints away from home brief. It’s not perfect, but the arrangement does have its perks. “All of a sudden there are no beds to make, no garbage to take out, no meals to make, no dishes to clean. No hockey, gymnastics, piano lessons. It’s just you and your family, and we can do whatever we want together.” Boulder audiences will have an opportunity to see Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy (and even some of the MacMaster-Leahy kids) in A Celtic Family Christmas, performing in Macky Auditorium Dec. 17. The program will feature folk arrangements of holiday classics like White Christmas, Twelve Days of Christmas and Up on the House Top. “I have such awesome memories of Boulder,” said MacMaster. “I’ve done so many cool shows there over the years. I love it. I love the people. And it’s all about the people.”

Though the two youngest MacMaster-Leahy’s aren’t currently on tour, the majority of the family travels together as much as possible. To make it work, 6

Celebrating 72 Years!

allows you to hear not the work behind the work of art but its poetry… His performance had extraordinary power and clarity.” A fitting tribute, then, from one visionary to another. The performance promises to be a unique and personal take on Beethoven’s legacy, which Aimard intentionally developed on the cusp of the composer’s 250th birth year. “Beethoven was somebody who was revolutionary and quite shocking in his time—we forget that part of his work, which was essential! But these compositions destabilized the music world. He used the language of his era, but he used it in a new and different way.” ARTIST SERIES

Beethoven, the avant-gardist By Becca Vaclavik Though he is now known as one of the most remarkable classical composers of all time, audiences often forget—or perhaps have never been taught—that Ludwig van Beethoven was quite the subversive artist in his day. “In some ways, we have killed Beethoven, making him too conventional and too monumental,” says pianist PierreLaurent Aimard. “We’ve changed the way we see Beethoven.” In reality? “He always wanted to compose music that looked towards the future.”

On Nov. 19, Aimard will illustrate this point when he performs “Beethoven the Avant-gardist” in Macky Auditorium as part of the CU Presents Artist Series. The evening’s program will juxtapose two of Beethoven’s sonatas against several avant-garde compositions from other artists. In doing so, Aimard hopes to bring to light some surprisingly similar themes and experiments across the works. Aimard, himself a world-renowned talent, is certainly well-equipped to give the lesson. Hailed as “a brilliant musician and an extraordinary visionary” by the Wall Street Journal, Aimard is widely recognized for his unparalleled, powerful technique. Speaking on a past performance, the Chicago Tribune wrote: “Aimard’s prodigious technique

Emphasizing diversity in American music By Pranathi Durgempudi With special collections ranging from colonial era tunebooks and pirate radio to silent film scores and big band works, the American Music Research Center (AMRC) creates an experience far beyond serving as a research center jointly held by the College of Music and the University Libraries. “I think that we are a tremendous resource across campus, beyond the College of Music, that the campus is not yet fully aware of,” Professor of Musicology and AMRC Director Susan Thomas says.

trying to pay particular attention to cross-border and transnational expressions of American musics.”

Under the guidance of Thomas for just one year, the AMRC has made great strides in all areas of its work. “The center has three main pillars. One is providing a research archive for scholars and musicians. The second is to do outreach and build curriculum on American music and history. The third is to support other scholars,” Thomas explains.

Many of the fall semester’s programs reflected this mission. In honor of the 75th anniversary of the United States Supreme Court’s U.S. vs. Korematsu decision (a decision upholding the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II after being challenged by Fred Korematsu), Thomas wanted to commemorate the landmark moment by bringing the No-No Boy Project to the university this fall semester. Other events included a collaboration with Otis Taylor and his Trance Blues Festival, hosting a round table with the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture curator Dwandalyn Reece, a performance featuring Cuban singersongwriter Luis Barbería, a panel conversation called “Black Banjo and Beyond” and more.

“We promote research on American musics, broadly speaking,” she continues. “That could be music from within the United States, but it is also, increasingly, research throughout the Americas. We are really

“They were really interested in thinking about the banjo as an instrument that has a history that ties together the African diaspora and a lot of often whiteidentified genres. It’s an instrument that really shows

the complexity of American music history,” Thomas says. Alongside presenting events, the AMRC provides resources to support students with their academic research, especially through accessibility to the center’s vast collections. Recent additions to the AMRC archive include a massive collection of silent film scores donated by CU Boulder alum and director of the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra Rodney Sauer. “Rodney actually credits his interest in silent film to the AMRC’s silent film music holding, which is where he first became aware of that music,” Thomas explains. Inspired by the AMRC’s collection, Sauer began a collection of his own. “Several years ago, he was able to purchase a collection

of silent film music from the Grauman’s Theater chain in Los Angeles from the ‘20s. As far as we know, the theaters had decided they weren’t going to use this film music anymore. They were throwing it out. “Because of the geographic specificity of the collection, it’s an interesting glimpse into what movies sounded like in California in the 1910s and 1920s.” Additionally, the AMRC directly supports students’ day-to-day education by crafting curricula for classes and giving grants to scholars. “We supported four proposals this summer and fall of artists who are working on music from the archive related to former faculty member and composer George Lynn.” Thomas is excited to launch into her goals of expanding outreach

this academic year. “We are uniquely situated to be a bridge between the community and the academic community here on campus.” With the goal of finding a publicfacing space for the AMRC, Thomas further hopes to serve the university and regional community in supporting scholarship and pedagogy. “There’s still a lot of work to be done,” Thomas says. “The thing that has most energized me is the number of partners that have stepped forward since I got here and the collaborations that we’re building, especially with cinema and media studies, libraries, ethnic studies, women's studies, and Native American and indigenous studies. I feel like we can help as much as be helped.”

College of Music looks to the future of music, a century in the making By Jessie Bauters If you can feel a certain buzz around the corner of 18th and Euclid on the CU Boulder campus right now, it’s not your imagination. It’s an exciting year for the College of Music. Amid growing commotion over the ever-progressing expansion of the college’s longtime home, Imig Music Building, students, faculty, administration, alumni, donors and community members will celebrate the 100th birthday of the College of Music starting in January 2020. Special events, performances, panel discussions and of course the grand opening of the new wing of Imig will point toward the future while paying homage to the first 100 years of musical artistry at the University of Colorado Boulder. Music at CU started its journey in the first decade of the Boulder campus. Nearly 50 years later, in 1920, the College of Music was created. The new college gave the study of music creation and history a permanent home. It also laid the foundation for an 30

institution whose influence would ripple throughout the music world through the work of graduates such as composer Dave Grusin, jazz artist Tia Fuller and countless others. The Boulder community is invited to join in the celebration of this legacy starting on Tuesday, Jan. 21, with a Centennial kickoff event in Grusin Music Hall. Myriad other events—including the College of Music’s return to Boettcher Concert Hall at the Denver Performing Arts Complex and a world premiere piece by composer Chris Theofanidis—are planned throughout the year to mark the occasion. It’s all leading up to the dedication of the expanded Imig Music Building and an open house at the new facilities next fall. As we look ahead to the future of music, a century in the making, we invite you to join our celebration of the moments—big and small—of the College of Music’s first 100 years. Find more information at colorado.edu/music/centennial.

HIGH SCHOOL REINVENTED. Everything & Cakes

New Vista High School opened in 1993 with a mission “to break the mold” of conventional secondary school practices. We provide rigorous learning in a supportive culture. Our curriculum is designed to cultivate the unique talents and interests of students who are ready to be more responsible for their own learning. Recognized as an Ashoka Changemaker school for our us of empathy and equity in our curriculum, and as a School of Opportunity for All Students, New Vista works to provide students with choices in the programs they take and work they do. In exchange, we require that all students do high quality work and earn an A or B in their core classes. At New Vista we go above & beyond. NEW VISTA HIGH SCHOOL
