Derek Bermel Worklist Photographs Reviews Derek Bermel "A world premiere work destined to lead a long, illustrious life. [Bermel] has lived in these Bulgarian rhythms and melodies, woven them far into the complex texture of his composition, and as a result, created a powerful work of art that speaks a language all its own and is built to last. John Aiello, The Journal News, Westchester County, New York "The snappy, pop inspired "Tag Rag" was good fun, full of merry percussion effects and playing around with a short riff that the composer lifted from an Amsterdam street musician." Mark Swed, The Los Angeles Times "...the 15-minute work, which provokes many a smile with its humorous whimsy, is like a Jackson Pollock painting, where random splotches of color become, in their anti-organization, a kind of form in itself." Willa Conrad, The Newark Star Ledger "The centerpiece was Derek Bermel's ''Language Instruction'' (2003), an amusing full ensemble work based on the rhythms and gestures of language tapes. The clarinet was, in effect, the voice on the tape, and the other instruments were the students variously willing or difficult, competent or bumbling who must repeat the phrases. Mr. Bermel spins this interaction into an increasingly chaotic fantasy that would have been perfectly at home on a program with Berio's Sequenza III."

The Boston Symphony Orchestra, for example, couldn't offer much better news than the return of Sir Simon Rattle. Along with Pierre Boulez, who hasn't made a guest appearance here in years, Rattle is the conductor I most want to hear perhaps the most thoughtful and incisive conductor of his generation. And the least complacent. His first concert (January 7 through 10 and 13) is a program centered in Eastern Europe, with one of Dvorak's loveliest works, the Serenade for Winds, Szymanowski's Stabat Mater Glagolitic Mass. Then the following week (January 15, 16, and 17) he's back with a program of familiar Beethoven, the first Leonore Overture, the Emperor Concerto (with Radu Lupu), and the Pastoral Symphony. what's ahead in pop local music jazz classical ... predictions Chamber music Two of the most thoughtful and probing musicians alive make a rare Boston appearance together at the Gardner Museum (January 25): pianist Russell Sherman and violinist Rolf Schulte, will be playing two of Beethoven's best-loved sonatas, the

LEONARD BERNSTEIN (1918-1990) 'The Age of Anxiety' WILLIAM BOLCOM (b1938) Piano Concerto Excerpts from the sleeve notes Part One A. The Prologue - four mixed-up characters in a Third Avenue bar try to sort themselves out: Quant, son of an Irish immigrant; Malin, a medical intelligence officer in the Canadian Air Force; Rosetta, a buyer for a big department store; and Emble, who is in the Navy. A very soft duet for clarinets is followed by a scalic descent on the flute acting as a 'bridge into the realms of the unconscious'. B. The Seven Ages - a four-fold discussion, 'reasonable and didactic in tone'. The seven variations, without a common theme, arise from aspects of previous sections. 1. A lyrical piano solo ending with the scalic descent on the harp. 2. Interactions between piano and orchestra. 3. Cantabile strings without piano. 4. A miniature scherzo in five-time (3/8 + 2/8). 5. A clarinet initiates a restless agitato. 6. A wistful piano solo. 7. Woodwinds lead into a long scalic descent from the piano. C. The Seven Stages - seven more variations representing a dream-odyssey which symbolizes the inner journey of the four characters in various relationships leading to a 'hectic but indecisive close'.

Bees, now a WSU piano professor, was then a doctoral student at the University of Colorado. In the past few years Taylor has emerged as one of the nation’s foremost young musicians. Audiences and critics alike hail the intensity and artistry he brings to the works of masters ranging from Bach and Beethoven to Boulez and Bolcom. The Washington Post, for instance, deems Taylor "one of the most impressive young pianists on the horizon today." His program includes works by Ludwig van Beethoven, Olivier Messiaen and Robert Schumann. In recent seasons Taylor has performed in France, Korea, Spain, the Philippines, and the Caribbean. In the United States he has appeared with such orchestras as the New York Philharmonic, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Detroit Symphony, St. Louis Symphony, Atlanta Symphony, Houston Symphony, Utah Symphony and Boston Pops, and has toured with the Polish Chamber Philharmonic.

"With a Song in Their Hearts: Bolcom and Morris" Seattle native and UW alumnus William Bolcom served as the Hans and Thelma Lehmann Distinguished Professor in the UW music department during 1993-94. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1988 for his work, 12 New Etudes for Piano Bolcom studied composition at the UW under John Verrall; later, he studied with Darius Milhaud. Bolcom has composed I Will Breathe A Mountain , premiered by Marilyn Horne at the Carnegie Hall Centennial; Third Sonata for Violin and Piano , commissioned for and premiered by Nadia Salerno-Sonnenberg at the Aspen Music Festival; and Songs of Innocence and of Experience , described as "a masterpiece of our time and place" by The New York Times Bolcom's 1992 opera, McTeague , commissioned and premiered by the Chicago Civic Light Opera, earned praise from the New York Magazine for its "gallant effort to restore music to its rightful place as the dominant and defining element in the operatic mix." The opera was televised by the Public Broadcasting Service as The Real McTeague , a television special conceived by Robert Altman. The Los Angeles Times wrote: "The composer, a master of his complex craft, wrote an accessible score that cannily bridged period pop, mild-mannered modernism and old-fashioned operatic convention."

80. June 2003 Columns Magazine Feature: Rag To Riches Park to accommodate famous musicians (such as renowned pianist Ignace Paderewski) who visited Seattle to play with the symphony. william bolcom with his http://www.washington.edu/alumni/columns/june03/riches01.html

Robert and Virginia Bolcom weren't sure what to do with their son William. Here he was, 4 years old, not yet old enough for kindergarten, yet he played the piano like a maestro. And he composed, too-a Mozart in the making. Young William grew up in a cocoon of music. His grandfather was a flamboyant Seattle lumber baron who thought nothing of smoking 20 cigars and downing two quarts of Scotch a day. He built an entire wing on his mansion overlooking Golden Gardens Park to accommodate famous musicians (such as renowned pianist Ignace Paderewski) who visited Seattle to play with the symphony. William Bolcom with his younger sister Robin, July 1950. Photo courtesy John Pollock. Bolcom's mother, an elementary school teacher, played classical music records to him when he was still in utero. His father, an industrial light bulb salesman, grew up rubbing elbows with music's elite who dropped by his home all the time. Although no one in the Bolcom household was an accomplished musician (his mom did play a mean "I Love You Truly" on the piano, however), William Bolcom grew up with music in his veins and talent many compared to the masters. But what do you do with a prodigy? The Bolcoms didn't know, so they telephoned the University of Washington School of Music, looking for some advice. (Enroll him for private piano lessons at the UW when he turns 11, they were told.)
