Coming Up: Swedish Choral Music at San Francisco Symphony

Posted on April 11, 2010 by Michael

…to the world of light “to behold once again the stars”. The work is a tour-de-force of 20th century choral writing. The soprano, tenor, and bass sections sometimes have 8-way divisions (the altos, alas, just 4-way), and at any one point in the score there may be 16 independent lines throughout the chorus. This is used for many effects: tone clusters and dissonant harmony depicting the Hellish scenario, great bitonal washes of sound, moving toward… Continue reading →

New Was (Not Was) Compilation: Pick of the Litter 1980-2010

Posted on March 7, 2010 by Michael

…re 30-year recording career: from the first single “Wheel Me Out” to their latest album Boo! How can one CD cover a 30 year career? Well, 18 of those 30 years were on hiatus while Don and David Was went their separate ways, with Don Was becoming a very successful record producer. Another 5 years were lost to record company disputes between their second and third albums. This still leaves us with 5 albums and several singles. Pick of the Litter cov… Continue reading →

Coming Up: An American "Der Freischütz"

Posted on January 24, 2010 by Michael

…d some American cultural references to the staging that cleverly parallel the German references of the work. I don’t want to give away any surprises. But I will say that this production will not fall into either of the twin pitfalls of dusty museum-piece staging or been-there-done-that Eurotrash updating. Der Freischütz will be performed on February 19, 21, 27, and 28 at the Lucie Stern Theatre in Palo Alto. The performances on Friday the 19th and… Continue reading →

"MusicXML in Commercial Applications" Now Online

Posted on January 12, 2010 by Michael

My 2006 paper on “MusicXML in Commercial Applications“, published in Music Analysis East and West, is now available online. This gives a scholarly summary of MusicXML practice in the music industry as of four years ago. It is interesting to see what has changed and what has stayed the same. MusicXML has moved from version 1.1 to 2.0, and the number of supporting applications has grown from over 50 to over 120. MusicXML’s role in music distributio… Continue reading →

Coming Up: Palo Alto Chamber Chorus

Posted on March 6, 2009 by Michael

…hamber choruses back in Boston, but have yet to find a good fit with a full-time chamber chorus locally. So I am really enjoying our rehearsals with the 15 singers of the Palo Alto Chamber Chorus. Most of the group also sings (now or in the recent past) with the San Francisco Symphony Chorus or West Bay Opera. We’ll be singing Mozart’s Missa brevis in D, K. 194 with the Baroque Concerto Ensemble under James Frieman’s direction. The concert is Sund… Continue reading →

Coming Up: Doctor Faustus Lights the Lights

Posted on September 29, 2008 by Michael

…of melody in contemporary opera. This opera does not fall into the all-too-common trap of having most of the vocal music written in a recitative style. Instead it is full of melodies, often quite upbeat and jaunty, so it is very possible you will leave humming at least one of the tunes. Rounding out the program are songs from another Ahlstrom work, America, I love you on texts by e. e. cummings. Performances are Friday, October 10 and 17 at 8:00… Continue reading →
