College of Music breaks ground on new home By Jessie Bauters

On a sunny Monday morning, Feb. 4, 2019, College of Music Dean Robert Shay, CU Boulder Chancellor Philip DiStefano and others broke ground on a 64,000-square-foot expansion of the Imig Music Building, the longtime home for music at the University of Colorado Boulder. The expansion, set to open in time for the College of Music Centennial and the Fall 2020 semester, includes a state-ofthe-art recording suite, innovative convertible rehearsal/performance spaces and dedicated suites for the Entrepreneurship Center for Music and the Musicians’ Wellness Program. “This will make it possible for us to continue to inspire the highest levels of artistry and discovery,” Shay said at the ceremony. 06

SPOTLIGHT

The groundbreaking ceremony featured speeches by College of Music Student Government President Anoushka Divekar, Professor of Piano and Helen and Peter Weil Faculty Fellow David Korevaar, Chancellor DiStefano, Music Advisory Board Chair Mikhy Ritter and music+ campaign chair Becky Roser. “With this project, we recognize the importance of the College of Music as a gateway to the Boulder campus,” said Roser. The CU Board of Regents approved $57 million in spending authority for construction of the addition last summer. Work began in January to demolish the southern portion of the Imig building to make way for the new three-story addition along Wardenburg Drive.

The College of Music, through its music+ campaign, continues to work with prospective benefactors and industry partners who are interested in supporting the worldclass people and programs who will benefit from the new addition. Such support is critical to sustaining a top music program that drives innovation and produces the next generation of musicians who will impact humanity through their art.

Big name dance companies transform their art on the Boulder stage By Corinne Baud

This spring, the Artist Series hosts two world-class dance ensembles, Batsheva Dance Company and Dorrance Dance, in Macky Auditorium. Both are known for pushing the boundaries of 21stcentury dance—and their global reputations make them a huge “get” for the Boulder community, says CU Theatre & Dance Department Chair and Artist Series Board Member Erika Randall.

developed by Batsheva house choreographer and former artistic director Ohad Naharin. Coincidentally, CU dance students learn Gaga in class today.

“People kept saying, ‘Oh, you got the apprentices from the Young Ensemble?’ No. Batsheva. The full company is coming to Boulder,” she recalls.

“It’s a wonderful opportunity for our students. We received a Roser Visiting Artist Grant to fund two weeks of master classes prior to the concert,” adds Randall. “Being able to have deep investigatory time in this immersive and demanding technique—while also witnessing the company onstage— is a rare gift.”

“Once Batsheva found out how deeply Gaga was incorporated into our dance department, they were blown away,” says CU Presents Executive Director Joan McLean Braun.

way, Dorrance revamps the rhythmic and technical traditions of the art form that have enticed audiences for generations. “They’ve evolved tap into a contemporary context, looking at it as a musical expression and percussive nature of feet,” says McLean Braun. “The buzz around the company is remarkable. They were just in Vail a few summers ago and audiences were completely impressed.” Both dance companies complement the other genres and art forms of the Artist Series this season. “The Artist Series really looks to bring experiences to Boulder that will be both entertaining and transformative,” says Randall. “And these two companies definitely deliver that because of how they move people into feeling.”

Program notes By Marc Shulgold

String Quartet in C Major, Op. 33, No. 3

That was quite a Christmas celebration at Vienna’s Hofburg Imperial Palace in 1781. On Christmas Eve, Mozart and Clementi competed in a keyboard duel enjoyed by Emperor Joseph II and his guests, including Grand Duke Paul of Russia (the son of Catherine the Great, himself a future tsar), and the Duchess Maria Feodorovna. Then, on Christmas Day, Haydn arrived with some musician friends and entertained the emperor and honored guests with excerpts from Op. 33, his newest collection of string quartets. On receiving lavish gifts from the visiting couple, Haydn responded by dedicating the set of six to them. But in a quiet bit of entrepreneurship, he’d already offered the “Russian Quartets” to a dozen or so of Europe’s wealthiest music lovers, who were invited to acquire the scores, priced at 6 ducats (around $870). In his pitch, the composer observed that these works were penned “in a new and special way,” adding that C-2

· cupresents.org · 303-492-8008

he’d not written a quartet in 10 years. This raises a couple of questions: What is new in these quartets, and why did they take so long? Over the span of two decades, Haydn and Mozart had pretty much invented the string quartet, exploring and experimenting with every possibility and polishing every page. So, yes, there are new elements and fresh wrinkles in Op. 33, such as replacing the traditional minuet movements with scherzos and introducing an overall buoyant lightness and transparency. Haydn’s sales pitch, then, sought to boost interest for works that were simply continuing the rapid maturity of the string quartet. Haydn’s collection from a decade earlier, Op. 20, had laid the groundwork for all that would follow, establishing an equality among the four voices, showing the potential of emotional depth, solidifying many of the rules of Sonata form, etc. The significance of Op. 33 might in fact be overshadowed by how that collection impacted Mozart. Having settled in Vienna in 1781 and befriending Haydn


But back to today’s work in question. The third of Op. 33 is nicknamed “The Bird,” after the charming entrance of the chirping first violin in the opening movement. Instantly, we are taken to a musical world of joy and wit. The following Scherzo mutes the jovial nature of the previous movement, presenting the four voices in their dark, lower register, contrasted by a Trio section in which the violins alone call up more bird sounds while they playfully interact on their two high strings. The Adagio consists of a gracious two-part melody followed by three fragrant variations. Rather than impress with a complex fugue for the quartet’s finale, Haydn delivers a folksy Rondo that is a nonstop amusement park ride, heavy on the amusement—particularly in those false endings.

String Quartet No. 5

A half-dozen years, 1928-1934, separate the fourth and fifth of Bartók’s six string quartets, a period that saw the creation of such works as the Second Piano Concerto (1931) and the 44 Violin Duos (1931)—the latter serving to enhance the composer’s interest in the folk music of Eastern Europe. Despite the passage of time, the fourth and fifth quartets share a kinship: Each is built on five movements, laid out in an arch-like symmetry. The opening and closing movements mirror each other, as do the second and fourth, with the third standing alone as the centerpiece (a concept continued a decade later in his Concerto for Orchestra). As usual, Bartók is not out to repeat himself. Consider that the fourth quartet’s mirror-image second and fourth movements are quick Scherzos, surrounding a slow middle movement—the exact opposite of how the fifth quartet is constructed. String Quartet No. 5 was written in late summer of 1934 and premiered by the Kolisch Quartet in Washington, D.C., in April the following year. The work resulted from a commission by the American arts patron Elizabeth Sprague-Coolidge (1864-1953), who also financed numerous chamber and orchestral works by European and American composers, most famously Copland’s Appalachian Spring. Bartók begins this quartet with a furious, repeating unison statement of B-flat, the work’s principal tonality. Yet, far from being another angry and violent piece, as was the case with many of his compositions that preceded, the fifth is welcoming in its clearly delineated construction and occasional folk-like touches—plus a hilarious surprise near its conclusion. In the two slow movements, each a reflection of the other, we get a taste of the composer’s “night music.” Here, the atmosphere is calm and quiet, suggesting the sounds of insects and the

occasional bird call—though at times the mood turns a bit creepy. (Who isn’t afraid of the dark now and then?) Notice the unexpected prayer-like hymn that appears early in the second movement. In the quartet’s center comes a lively, rhythmically intricate Scherzo, based on the uneven pulse of Bulgarian folk dance. If you’re counting along, a measure of nine eighth-notes is divided as 4+2+3. Completing the mirror-image structure of the quartet, its finale recalls elements of the opening movement, here cast in energetic dance rhythms, featuring such unusual effects as bouncing on the strings with the wood of the bow (col legno) and some nearcomic slides (glissando). Suddenly, without warning, the second violin launches into a brief, silly barrel-organ ditty (marked Allegretto con indifferenza) that quickly stumbles out-of-tune when the first fiddle enters. Order is restored, however, in a short, furious finale.

String Quartet in C Major, Op. 59, No. 3

The three Beethoven works of Op. 59 are known collectively as the “Razumovsky” Quartets, dedicated, like Haydn’s Op. 33, to a Russian—in this case that nation’s ambassador to Vienna. For all their explosiveness and brilliance, one element of Op. 59 should not be overlooked: its length. Beethoven’s first set, Op. 18, was published in 1801 and comprised six works—the traditional number employed by Haydn and Mozart. The influence of those two also showed in Op. 18’s similar brevity: Each averages about 26 ½ minutes. A mere five years later came Op. 59, numbering only three this time, each one expanded by an additional 10 minutes. Yes, it’s clear that Beethoven now had more to say, but it’s also likely that he’d lost his desire to publish pleasant, bite-size music for at-home amateurs—in earlier days a welcome source of income for composers. Why would he leave those buyers behind? Perhaps because he now had at his disposal the services of the world’s first fully professional quartet, led by the comically portly but widely admired violin virtuoso Ignaz Schuppanzigh. Upon its publication in 1807, Op. 59 led one reviewer to complain, “Three new, very long and difficult Beethoven string quartets … are attracting the attention of all connoisseurs. The conception is profound and the construction excellent, but they are not easily comprehended.” By then, Beethoven had become accustomed to such instant befuddlement. A potential buyer of Op. 59, No. 3 might have been intimidated by its obvious length and constant changes in dynamics— crescendos, decrescendos, sudden forceful notes immediately followed by quiet ones, etc. The mercurial Beethoven loved such challenging, out-of-the-blue contrasts. One can also imagine puzzled reactions to those strange opening chords, struggling, it seems, to arrive at the elementary key of C. And then there’s the super-fast fugal finale, one of Beethoven’s most exciting, and one surely not for the faint of heart. Still, an amateur player could have been attracted to the charming, short Minuet and Trio (a nice throwback to Haydn and Mozart). The seemingly innocent lilt of the Andante, calling for the plucked cello to serve as genial, if mysterious timekeeper, soon travels to places unknown and unexpected. Best to leave this music to the pros. · cupresents.org · 303-492-8008

C-3

Takács Quartet: April 28-29, 2019

soon after his arrival, the young composer was clearly excited by his colleague’s latest quartets. (It’s possible he attended that Christmas Day reading at Hofburg.) Mozart’s enthusiasm for Op. 33 inspired his return to the genre and to creating the six masterful quartets dedicated to Haydn. As for the long lapse between quartet publications, Haydn had been very busy with his obligations to the Esterházy palace, composing dozens of symphonies and chamber works for the prince, creating marionette shows for the entertainment-hungry Esterházys and supervising some 50 opera productions (only five of which were Haydn’s own).


Takács Quartet: April 28-29, 2019

Some observers have suggested that the Andante’s melody is rooted in Russian folk song. Nothing in the score is indicated as such, though the first two of Op. 59 included tunes specified “Thème russe”—an homage, no doubt, to Mr. Razumovsky. The three quartets of Op. 59, the first of five that occupied the composer’s so-called Middle Period, usher in a new approach to the genre. Beethoven’s growing canvas of possibilities for the string

quartet pointed to the future, continuing an expanse into uncharted territory that culminated in the final masterpieces from his Late Period. There are, we should point out, some nods to the past in this last of Op. 59: The presence of a Minuet, as we noted, and a charming false ending in the finale—reminding of a similar playful moment in the Haydn quartet heard earlier.

About the Takács Quartet The Takács Quartet, now entering its 44th season, is renowned for the vitality of its interpretations. The New York Times recently lauded the ensemble for “revealing the familiar as unfamiliar, making the most traditional of works feel radical once more,” and the Financial Times described a recent concert at the Wigmore Hall: “Even in the most fiendish repertoire these players show no fear, injecting the music with a heady sense of freedom. At the same time, though, there is an uncompromising attention to detail: neither a note nor a bow-hair is out of place.” Based in Boulder at the University of Colorado, Edward Dusinberre, Harumi Rhodes (violins), Geraldine Walther (viola) and András Fejér (cello) perform 80 concerts a year worldwide. During the 2018-19 season, the ensemble will continue its four annual concerts as associate artists at London's Wigmore Hall. In August 2018, the quartet appeared at the Edinburgh, Snape Proms, Menton and Rheingau festivals. Other European venues later in the season include Berlin, Cologne, Baden-Baden, Bilbao and the Bath Mozartfest. The quartet will perform extensively in the U.S., including two concerts at New York’s Lincoln Center and at the University of Chicago, Princeton and Berkeley. A tour with Garrick Ohlsson will culminate in a recording for Hyperion of the Elgar and Amy Beach piano quintets. The latest Takács CD, to be released in summer 2019, features Dohnányi’s two piano quintets and his second string quartet, with pianist Marc-André Hamelin. In 2014, the Takács became the first string quartet to win the Wigmore Hall Medal. The medal, inaugurated in 2007, recognizes major international artists who have a strong association with the hall. Recipients so far include Sir Andras Schiff, Thomas Quasthoff, Menahem Pressler and Dame Felicity Lott. In 2012, Gramophone announced that the Takács was the only string quartet to be inducted into its first Hall of Fame, along with such legendary artists as Jascha Heifetz, Leonard Bernstein and Dame Janet Baker. The ensemble also won the 2011 Award for Chamber Music and Song presented by the Royal Philharmonic Society in London. The Takács Quartet performed Philip Roth’s “Everyman” program with Meryl Streep at Princeton in 2014 and again with her at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto in 2015. The program was conceived in close collaboration with Philip Roth. The quartet is known for such innovative programming. They first performed “Everyman” at Carnegie Hall in 2007 with Philip Seymour Hoffman. The quartet has toured 14 cities with the poet Robert Pinsky, collaborates regularly with the Hungarian Folk group Muzsikas, and in 2010 collaborated with the Colorado Shakespeare Festival

and David Lawrence Morse on a drama project that explored the composition of Beethoven’s last quartets. Aspects of the quartet’s interests and history are explored in Edward Dusinberre’s book, Beethoven for a Later Age: The Journey of a String Quartet, which takes the reader inside the life of a string quartet, melding music history and memoir as it explores the circumstances surrounding the composition of Beethoven’s quartets. The Takács Quartet records for Hyperion Records, and their releases for that label include string quartets by Haydn, Schubert, Janáček, Smetana, Debussy and Britten, as well as piano quintets by Franck and Shostakovich (with Marc-André Hamelin), and viola quintets by Brahms (with Lawrence Power). For their CDs on the Decca/London label, the quartet has won three Gramophone Awards, a Grammy Award, three Japanese Record Academy Awards, Disc of the Year at the inaugural BBC Music Magazine Awards and Ensemble Album of the Year at the Classical Brits. The members of the Takács Quartet are Christoffersen Faculty Fellows at the University of Colorado Boulder. The quartet has helped develop a string program with a special emphasis on chamber music, where students work in a nurturing environment designed to help them develop their artistry. Through the university, two of the quartet’s members benefit from the generous loan of instruments from the Drake Instrument Foundation. The members of the Takács are on the faculty at the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara, where they run an intensive summer string quartet seminar, and visiting fellows at the Guildhall School of Music. The Takács Quartet was formed in 1975 at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest by Gabor Takács-Nagy, Károly Schranz, Gabor Ormai and András Fejér, while all four were students. It first received international attention in 1977, winning First Prize and the Critics’ Prize at the International String Quartet Competition in Evian, France. The quartet also won the Gold Medal at the 1978 Portsmouth and Bordeaux Competitions and First Prizes at the Budapest International String Quartet Competition in 1978 and the Bratislava Competition in 1981. The quartet made its North American debut tour in 1982. After several changes of personnel, the most recent addition is second violinist Harumi Rhodes, following Károly Schranz's retirement in April 2018. In 2001, the Takács Quartet was awarded the Order of Merit of the Knight’s Cross of the Republic of Hungary, and in March 2011 each member of the quartet was awarded the Order of Merit Commander’s Cross by the President of the Republic of Hungary.

How to plan a knockout Artist Series in Macky Auditorium By Becca Vaclavik

Joan McLean Braun has served as executive director for CU Presents since 2001—taking over the helm of the Artist Series when CU Presents was still CU Concerts. Under her artistic vision, audiences in Macky Auditorium have experienced groundbreaking performances from Bobby McFerrin, Martha Graham Dance Company, Yo-Yo Ma and dozens of other award-winning icons across genres.

performance Boulder residents might see onstage.

But the process of curating a complete Artist Series lineup begins long before patrons step into the theatre. Season planning is full of as many highs, lows and emotional moments as any live

She starts with a few anchors, or “must-have” artists, whom she’s willing to shape the rest of the season around. Sometimes, the anchors have been on the short list for years.

22

SPOTLIGHT

It all begins with a list of names. Early on, McLean Braun starts will a short list of artists she’s hoping to bring to Macky. “Short” is relative, of course, because the list typically has about three times as many names on it as the Artist Series has dates to fill. This is her favorite part.

“Yo-Yo Ma had been on our offer list for at least a decade. We just kept saying, ‘We’re here!’ and waiting,” she shares with a laugh and a big wave of her hands. Then, after attending conferences with other area presenters and speaking with agents across the globe, she begins to fill in the holes between her anchors. McLean Braun collaborates with CU faculty and presenters from Fort Collins and Denver to put together a lineup that is both efficient for curators and inspiring for audiences. And if a nice, long list of potential acts is McLean Braun’s favorite part, the winnowing process is her


nemesis. Sometimes a booked artist will cancel their tour entirely. Or sometimes Macky’s historic features aren’t a match with the technical needs of otherwise incredible performers. Sometimes an agent suggests a tour that bounces from Dallas up to Boulder and back down to Houston. She often has to simply say no—or at least, “Not this year.” It’s a long process to piece the puzzle together, she says, and one she wishes she had more control over. “I keep wishing that I were designing the Artist Series events like a box of chocolates. ‘Oh, this

one goes here. Yep. This needs to go there.’ But it's not like that. There’s an extremely challenging practical element to planning.” Even so, it’s not all hiccups and headaches. The incredibly varied genres of the CU Presents Artist Series work in her (and audiences’) favor. “I can be nimble. I know I want at least three classical events. Then dance, jazz, world music … Sure, it's got a little bit of a repeating pattern to the things that I'm looking to balance. But it's flexible enough that I can take advantage of what's going to be going around, too.”

Eventually, some time around January in any given year, the stars align and another season packed with knockout performers comes together. Regardless of what genres are represented at Macky each year, McLean Braun knows she can always rely on one constant: Every artist or production in the Artist Series is of the highest level of talent. “It's great being a multidisciplinary presenter because, really… All things are possible for us.”
