Welcome Milestones, anniversaries, and collaborations have been repeating motifs in the planning of our 2012-13 season. The milestones present a wonderful symmetry, coincidentally occurring in multiples of fifty: we observe 50 years of Ethnomusicology at the University, the 100-year anniversary of the 1913 debut of The Rite of Spring, and the 150-year anniversary of the birth of Claude Debussy. Through our observation of these milestones and the many other exciting performances and collaborations with friends and guests from the region and from around the world, the UW School of Music shines as a major concert-presenting organization in the Pacific Northwest. Our mission is to study and perform the greatest music from all time and to pioneer new directions in creating the music of today. This year, as every year, our faculty musicians bring together their dazzling virtuosity and deep understanding of music in performances at Meany Theater, with pianist Craig Sheppard turning his attention to the music of Claude Debussy (October 23 and April 16), pianist Robin McCabe and her sister, Rachelle McCabe, performing works by Chopin, Debussy, and Rachmaninoff (April 24), and violist Melia Watras sharing the stage with her colleague and former teacher, Atar Arad of Indiana University (November 5). Our entire jazz faculty go downtown on October 10 for an evening at Benaroya Hall, showcasing the incredible range of our Jazz Studies Program. The School of Music and the Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media will debut an exciting new series, Music of Today, presenting groundbreaking performances by visiting artists such as Newband, featuring the Harry Partch Instrument Collection (November 7), a rare and unusual opportunity to experience the music of an innovative composer and inventor. In addition to all of that, we proudly welcome our newest affiliate faculty member, Seattle Symphony Music Director Ludovic Morlot, to conduct our University Symphony on February 28, and we embark on the second half-century of our Ethnomusicology program with guest artist residencies by Kedmon Mapana (music of Central Tanzania), Srivani Jade (music of North India), and Thione Diope (music of Senegal, West Africa). In May, we celebrate the music of Charles Ives in a festival including performances and lectures by students, faculty, and guest speakers and performers. These events and occasions are only a few of the highlights of our season, which promises to be among the most ambitious and eclectic we have ever presented. We invite you to investigate further, in the pages of this brochure, and in person at our performances. Richard Karpen, Director

The concert will include three masterworks by Partch—Castor and Pollux, Eleven Intrusions, and Barstow—and pieces by Drummond and by Mathew Rosenblum.

Notecards Great Live Music, Great Low Price The School of Music Notecard is a season pass to nearly all of the concerts presented by the UW School of Music in Meany Theater, Meany Studio Theater, Brechemin Auditorium, the WalkerAmes Room, and the Jones Playhouse. Notecard prices for the 2012-13 season are $90 for the general public, $75 for UW employees and UW Alumni Association members, and $60 for students and seniors. With more than 80 Notecard concerts this season, it doesn’t take many to cover the cost of your pass! A School of Music Notecard is convenient. You don’t need to get tickets in advance — just present your Notecard at the door of the theater at least 20 minutes before the event begins and you will be admitted on a seat-available basis. * Be sure to allow plenty of time for parking and getting to the concert location. Seating for Notecard events is not reserved and not guaranteed, so the earlier you arrive, the better your chance of getting a seat. Order your Notecard using the form on the inside back cover, or by calling the UW Arts Ticket Office (206-543-4880 or 1-800-859-5342 outside Seattle). Notecards are not transferable, refundable, or replaceable. Please keep yours in a safe place. Remember: Your School of Music Notecard will admit you to the Oct. 17 and May 9 Music of Today concerts by the Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media (DXARTS). New for 2012-13: Your Notecard will admit you to the Oct. 10 Jazz Faculty Showcase and the Jan. 18 and 19 Faculty Dance Concert. * Seating for the Dec. 5 and May 29 Studio Jazz Ensemble concerts is limited, but Notecard patrons may ensure their seating by contacting the Arts Ticket Office before 5 pm the day prior to the performance.
Remember . . .
Concerts, dates, artists, locations, and programs are subject to change. For the latest information, check our online calendar (www.music.washington.edu) or Events Hotline (206-685-8384).
