All Music Reviews A-Z The Duke Quartet Kevin Volans: hunting: gathering (black box) White Man Sleeps that Well, despite his misgivings, Volans pursued the idea, using as many open strings as possible to get close to the strange timbre he was after . . . anyway, he must have realised that Kronos is far Hunting: Gathering But for me its the new piece that's the highlight, Volans's String Quartet No. 6 from 2000. Nothing African about it - this one's inspired by the minimalists of the 20th century, a deliberate step away from the business of mainstream classical music, whether by Stravinsky, Stockhausen, or Steve Reich. "I have become increasingly interested in eliminating subject matter in my music as far as possible. My ideal would be the equivalent of the blank canvas".

48. Allegoria - Music kevin volans has gone further than most of his contemporaries, by escaping fromstyle altogether and by working directly with music s two fundamental http://www.balletmet.org/Notes/AllMusic.html

Return to BalletNotes Home Page Allegoria, The Music The explosion of form, texture, timbre, rhythm and expectation in late twentieth-century composition is often hailed as 'freedom of style". Kevin Volans has gone further than most of his contemporaries, by escaping from style altogether and by working directly with music's two fundamental parameters - sound and time. The notion of sound as patterned time goes back to his school days, when Volans played Liszt and Stravinsky on the piano (in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa) and translated them into hundreds of abstract paintings. It continued with a study of information theory, pattern recognition and time experience (at Aberdeen University) and a series of juvenilia in which the main theme was the overcoming of 'consequence' in composition. Since then, through most of his forty plus works to date, Kevin Volans has relentlessly pursued the precedence of material over concept, the importance of striking image and textural foreground, and the idea that music is sequence rather than consequence. White Man Sleeps (1982) falls into Volans' early period of composition from Nine Beginnings (1976) to She Who Sleeps With A Small Blanket (1985). During this period Volans found his identity as a composer by exploring the very notion of identity itself, through the course of eleven pieces for small chamber ensemble or tape. In this journey from Europe to Africa and back again, Volans' relationship to both continents is intrinsic, not 'ecstatic'.

Music Kevin Volans Ensemble Originally a student of Karl Stockhausen's, South African composer Kevin Volans broke from the European school of modern music and returned to Africa to imbue his work with more of the roots of African music. He composes primarily for small ensembles of European instruments; the Kronos Quartet has recorded some of his work. Today he resides in Ireland.

[Morton Feldman Page] [List of Texts] Conversation with Morton Feldman by Kevin Volans Feldmans's Second String Quartet was given its European premiere by the Kronos Quartet on the evening of 25th July 1984 at the 1984 Darmstadt Summer Course of Contemporary Music. The next morning Feldman gave his 1984 "Darmstadt Lecture," the text of which is reproduced in Walter Zimmermann's collection of Feldman's "Essays" (1985). After the lecture, Feldman had lunch with Kevin Volans who recorded the conversation reproduced below. This conversation was first published in Volans's collection of conversations with composers published under the title "Summer Gardeners" (Durban: Newer Music Edition, 1985) pp122-128. KV: What I didn't expect at all from the string quartet last night, was how personal the music was. After spending quite a lot of time looking at the score and analysing it, this was somehow overlooked. I don't know if I am overinterpreting it, but it seemed ... MF: No you weren't. It was pretty sad, wasn't it? KV: Yes, very. It was upsetting, especially that figure with a glissando over a major second.

Playlist for March 26, 2002 Kevin Volans is an Irish composer who, it would seem, dresses snappily. Composer Work Performer(s) Label Comments McKay, George Symphony for Seattle Northwest Symphony Orchestra Anthony Spain, conductor Albany A majestic, neo-Romantic work from the Pacific northwest. The composer lived in Washington state for most of his life. I don't really have much to say about this piece. It was a nice selection to open up the program. Volans, Kevin White Man Sleeps Kronos Quartet Nonesuch A great piece, performed here in its original version (for string quartet) on a disc entitled "Pieces of Africa" (although I don't really know what the piece's connection to Africa is the composer is Irish). The Kronos Quartet is known for performing lots of different kinds of music and blending cultural traditions. They give a great performance on this disc. Purcell, Henry 'Tis Nature's voice Robin Blaze, countertenor Elizabeth Kenny, lute Hyperion Wow. I grabbed this at the last minute when I realized I needed to fill some time, but I was blown away by the performance. The vocal part in this song is extremely difficult, and Robin Blaze performs it very impressively. The harmonies throughout the song are beautiful, and still quirky enough to keep you on your toes. A nice surprise. Suite in G Minor, HWV 452

60. WHPK Playlists I recognize the use of many different textures, but I wouldn t call them extreme as the title suggests. volans, kevin. String Quartet no. http://home.uchicago.edu/~ckrubin/031703.html

Playlist for March 17, 2003 George Gershwin: not Irish, but who's counting? Composer Work Performer(s) Label Comments Bach, Wilhelm Friedemann Sonata for Keyboard in E-flat major, F5 Christophe Rousset, harpsichord Virgin So many Bach children, it's sometimes hard to keep track. Wilhelm Friedemann was the eldest son of Johann Sebastian. He was more talented as a keyboardist and organist than as a composer, though several of his compositions survive, like this sonata. Crandell, Robert Carnival David Britton, organ Delos You don't hear of many Americans writing organ music; nonetheless, this was interesting enough. A bit boring in the middle for my tastes, but whatever. Kolb, Barbara Extremes Taco Kooistra, cello Harrie Starreveld, flute New World Another interesting piece, though nothing spectacular. I recognize the use of many different textures, but I wouldn't call them "extreme" as the title suggests. Volans, Kevin String Quartet no. 2 "Hunting: Gathering" Kronos Quartet Nonesuch Though not born in Ireland, Kevin Volans is an Irish composer of sorts, in that he has lived there for a while; thus, I played this very cool string quartet in honor of St. Patrick's Day.
