SAMUEL ADAMS
Artist Profile
Tension Study # 1 Tension study # 1 is a work about the release of tension. Perhaps the most transparent manifestation of ‘tension’ in this composition is the guitarist’s revealing of the bass line by the gradual detuning of the instrument. However, the primary concern of the work is the physical acoustic tension between the dominant and the tonic.
Samuel Adams (b. 1985) is an active composer, conductor, and multi-instrumentalist from the San Francisco Bay Area. He received a bachelor’s degree from Stanford University, where he studied composition with Mark Applebaum and Erik Ulman and electroacoustic music with Jean-Claude Risset and Christopher Chafe at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA). He recently completed his master’s degree at the Yale School of Music, where he studied primarily with Martin Bresnick.

KATHRYN ALEXANDER
FanFare-Esque FanFare-Esque is the first movement of a larger, multi-movement work for guitar quartet, but may also stand alone as a single, introductory movement. Historically, a fanfare was a short piece of music traditionally played by trumpets and/or other brass that was often accompanied by percussion, and was commonly performed for ceremonial purposes. The genre is thought to have originated in the Middle Ages, but was very popular in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, fanfares are heard at parades, in concert music settings, as theme music for television and radio programs, and in video game music. In FanFare-Esque, the generative material is stated in the opening flourish of extended chords, then re-quoted and re-knit throughout the piece, thus extending the original material as a primary compositional process of the piece. The musical syntax I employ is a pitch-centric ‘iconicism,’ in which 8-, 9-, and 10-note pitch collections are used as pitch source material ranging from chromatic to modal treatments to realize the harmonic syntax and binary structure of the movement. In affect, Fanfare-Esque reflects a ‘giocoso’ nature, whimsical and mischievous in character, which is realized in the music through vernacular music appropriations, including using the guitar instruments for their percussive capabilities to create a ‘beatbox,’ as well as in their more traditional melodic, rhythmic and accompaniment roles. Artist Profile Composer Kathryn Alexander was the 2009 winner of the Roger Sessions Memorial Bogliasco Fellowship in Music, for which she resided as Composer-in-Residence at the Liguria Study
Center in Bogliasco, Italy in March and April, 2009. She was a 2007-08 winner of the Aaron Copland Award and a 2006 recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. Her pieces draw upon a range of disciplines, including literature, the visual and plastic arts, the sciences, and technology to develop formal schema that distill from the abstract rather than from literal, programmatic meaning. The result is a repertoire described variously by critics as music in which “...the gestures were bolder, the moods more volatile, the climaxes more clearly marked and – most significant – the sounds enormously more colorful,” and where “...the instrumentalists out-Bartoked Bartok in their extramusical pursuits.” Alexander has been awarded a Radcliffe Fellowship, a Computerworld Laureate Award, a Composer’s Fellowship from the NEA, and the Rome Prize. She has won numerous awards from ASCAP and has held residencies at the MacDowell Colony, Millay Colony, Virginia Center for the Arts, Yaddo, Atlantic Center for the Arts, and Tanglewood. Alexander studied with Donald Erb and Eugene O’Brien at the Cleveland Institute of Music and later earned her DMA in composition at Eastman, working with Samuel Adler, Barbara Kolb, Allan Schindler and Joseph Schwantner, and pursued additional study with Leon Kirchner at Tanglewood. She has taught at Oberlin, Dartmouth College, and the University of Oregon, and currently teaches composition and music technology at Yale University.

Joaquin is Dreaming (Joaquin Soñando) Commissioned by Benjamin Verdery and dedicated to Benjamin Verdery and Joaquin Bresnick-Arrias. Joaquin Bresnick-Arias, my grandson, was born on June 3, 2007, in New Haven. The child of Johanna Bresnick and Dimitry Arias, his wonderfully complex human inheritance (American, Ecuadorean, Jewish, Catholic, Russian, German, Spanish, native South American, and more) inspired me to reflect in a musical way on this joyful new person and his intricate place in a brave new world. Joaquin is Dreaming is dedicated to Ben Verdery, whose impassioned musical artistry has been a consistent and stirring inspiration to me. I am deeply grateful to him for making this compositional opportunity possible.

AARON JAY KERNIS
100 Greatest Dance Hits 100 Greatest Dance Hits (1993) is an affectionate tribute to various sorts of popular music that I heard when I was growing up or came to know as I lived in New York City as an adult. It is channeled from influences ranging from the African drumming roots of rock-and-roll in the short introductory movement, to the salsa accents from the streets of Washington Heights where I’ve lived since the early 1990s, the unshakeable remnants of middle-of-the-road easy-listening music that my parents gravitated towards and I detested as a teenager (only to succumb to the charms of the memories of singing strings, Muzak, and Atlantic City club-dates that still bring back the image of my parents) – and wraps up with a ’70s disco and gently funk-based final movement that barrels on through diatonic hints of Soul Train, crunchy and scratchy New Complexity climaxes, to a final moment of early rap vocal percussion. The work was commissioned for Music From Angel Fire and is dedicated to guitarist David Tanenbaum and Ida Kavafian.
Artist Profile Aaron Jay Kernis, winner of the 2002 Grawemeyer Award and one of the youngest composers ever awarded the Pulitzer Prize, has taught composition at the Yale School of Music since 2003.

Birmingham Bach Choir, Minnesota Orchestra, Los Angeles and Saint Paul Chamber Orchestras, Walt Disney Company, Ravinia Festival, Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and Rose Center for Earth and Space at the Museum of Natural History in New York, among others. Recent recordings include a disc of his song cycles by soprano Susan Narucki (Koch) and orchestral works by the Grant Park Festival Orchestra (Cedille). His music is available on Nonesuch, Phoenix, New Albion, Argo, and CRI. One of America’s most honored composers, Mr. Kernis been awarded the Stoeger Prize from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the Rome Prize, and received Grammy nominations for Air and the Second Symphony.

He is chairman and co-director of the Minnesota Orchestra Composer Institute.
EZRA LADERMAN
On Vineyard Sound On Vineyard Sound was composed in November 2009. Its four movements reflect on some of the characteristics that make the guitar so unique. Each movement stays within a specific sound world, with the last section being an extension of the first movement. As with so many of my works, the opening phrase of each movement becomes the foundation for all that will follow. It lays out a sequence of notes that will be explored, transformed, and illuminated. As for the title, our boat “Molto Tortissimo” has sailed the waters of Vineyard Sound since 1975.
Artist Profile Ezra Laderman was born in Brooklyn in 1924. He studied composition with Stefan Wolpe and with Otto Luening and Douglas Moore at Columbia University, where he earned the Master of Arts degree.

DAVID LANG
warmth warmth was commissioned by the ensemble Cygnus for their classical guitarists William Anderson and Oren Fader, and they let me write for electric guitars. One of the cool but often problematic things about electric guitar is that all the amps and boxes make possible an almost infinite variety of tone quality. I imagined that making the tone quality I wanted the title of the piece might help the players decide what sounds to choose.

some playful moments. But the tenor of the piece is mostly reflective and meditational. The music is dedicated to Ben and his wife, the flutist Rie Schmidt.
Artist Profile
The Mentioning of Love In 2007, when I attended a concert of the Yale University Javanese Gamelan (‘Suprabanggo’), I heard a piece by my old teacher, K.R.T. Wasitodipura, who had recently passed away. Pak Tjokro, as he was affectionately known to his students, had been a real inspiration to me and other composers involved in Indonesian music activities in California in the early ’70s. Hearing Pak Tjokro’s music that night gave me a strong impulse to get to work on a piece for alto flute and guitar, which had ben commissioned by my dear friend and colleague Ben Verdery. I decided to compose the piece as an homage to Pak Tjokro. Thus there are melodic quotes from his composition, and scales close to the modes of the Indonesian gamelan orchestras. At the outset, the flute and guitar seem to be playing together, sharing the same scale material, but there are clashes and disconnects, despite commonalities of pitch and durational patterns. Towards the middle of the piece, however, they settle down and cooperate more; there are even
Ingram Marshall lived and worked in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1973 to 1985 and in Washington State, where he taught at Evergreen State College, until 1989. His current base is Connecticut. He studied at Columbia University and California Institute of the Arts, where he received an M.F.A., and has been a student of Indonesian gamelan music, the influence of which may be heard in the slowed-down sense of time and use of melodic repetition found in many of his pieces. In the mid-seventies he developed a series of “live electronic” pieces such as Fragility Cycles, Gradual Requiem, and Alcatraz in which he blended tape collages, extended vocal techniques, Indonesian flutes, and keyboards. In recent years he has concentrated on music combining tape and electronic processing with ensembles and soloists. His music has been performed by ensembles and orchestras such as the Theater of Voices, Kronos Quartet, Bang on a Can All-Stars, Los Angeles Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, St. Louis Symphony, and American Composers Orchestra. He has received awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, Rockefeller Foundation, Fromm Foundation, Guggenheim Foundation, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Recent recordings are on Nonesuch (Kingdom Come) and New Albion (Savage Altars). Orphic Memories, commissioned by the Cheswatyr Foundation, was composed for the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and premiered at Carnegie Hall in April 2007.
JACK VEES
National Anthem When Ben Verdery asked me to come up with a new piece for him, I jumped at the chance. I knew I wanted to compose a piece that had pre-recorded backing tracks, and I wanted those to come from an album that Ben considered one of his favorites. The album he picked was High Violet by The National. (Bryce Dessner ’98ba, ’98mm, one of Ben’s former students, is the guitarist in the band.) That choice led to some interesting, if unexpected possibilities. I took several isolated sound clips from the CD and ran them through a process with electronic and acoustic elements. I played my sound clips into a grand piano with the sustain pedal held down. The resultant sound is not so much like reverb, but more of a tuned resonance of the original sound that went into the piano. It carries a lot of the harmonic content, along with echoes of whatever voice or instrumental sound went into it. This provides a big, softedged, ambient backdrop over which there is space to give Ben lots of wide open melodies, and even a spot for a good, old-fashioned guitar solo. Tonight Ben performs this piece on a guitar that I designed and produced in collaboration with Bruno Jacquet. I am grateful to Bruno for his skill and care, which have produced an instrument beautiful in both look and sound. I dedicate this premiere performance to the memory of my dear friend Art Jarvinen, who passed away while I was in the midst of composing this piece. He loved the sound of surf guitar, and there are sections of this piece that evoke that idiom in its melancholy mode.
Artist Profile Jack Vees was born in Camden, New Jersey in 1955. He attended Glassboro State College and received his M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts, where he studied with Morton Subotnick, Stephen Mosko, Louis Andriessen, Vinko Globokar, and Bernard Rands. Vees’s works have been performed by Ensemble Modern, California Ear Unit, Zeitgeist, and Hemispheres, among others. He performs with his own ensemble, Chez Vees. His mastery of extended techniques on the bass led him to write the Book on Bass Harmonics (Alfred, 1981). Vees is the operations director and instructor of electronic music at Yale’s Center for Studies in Music Technology. Major performances of Vees’s works include New Music America, Neue Musik New York/Cologne, Bang On A Can, and Soundings. He has been commissioned by Ensemble Modern, Music In Motion (with the California Ear Unit), Minnesota Composers Forum, Zeitgeist, and Corn Palace Productions, and has been in residence at Duke University and the Yellow Springs Institute.
