Look What's Happening In Pasadena ISD 'Building Cultural Bridges' program spreads message of music, diversity In a culturally diverse world, music is often the tie that binds. That's the message of the "Building Cultural Bridges" program at Pearl Hall Elementary School. Musicians from various cultural backgrounds visited the school recently to share stories about their heritage and careers in music. One of them was Carlos Miguel Prieto, associate conductor with the Houston Symphony, who spoke to fifth graders at Pearl Hall last week. Prieto's past experience includes conducting all of the main orchestras in Mexico, leading more than 70 concerts a year. He has served as guest conductor with the San Antonio Symphony, the Florida Philharmonic, the Dallas Symphony and the Karelia Philharmonic in Russia. "Wherever you go, you'll always find that there is a bond through music," Prieto told the students. "Music is just like a universal language." Prieto also stressed the value of earning a quality education. He received a bachelor's degree from Princeton and a masters from Harvard University. He was concertmaster of the orchestra at Harvard. In 1998, he received the Mozart Medal of Honor from the Mexican and Austrian governments.

62. Limerick Leader - February 16th, 2002 - Features - Talk Of The Town Donagh collins comes from a rich musical background. The best known, finghin, is stillstudying in Geneva and is a regular concert pianist while sister http://www.limerick-leader.ie/issues/20020216/talk.html

Saturday, February 16th, 2002 Front Page Features Editorial Comment Brendan Halligan ... Feedback Let us know what you think Home Talk of the Town By AIDAN CORR Talented Donagh Collins jumps aboard the fast-moving Irish Chamber Orchestra bandwagon DONAGH Collins has all the qualities that we have come to expect from those involved with the Irish Chamber Orchestra. He has a vibrant and youthful personality, buzzes at the pace of a contata and is obviously exceptionally talented. Donagh is also quite humble about his qualities. A gifted cellist and pianist who won Irish dancing championships throughout the country, he admits that he has "no interest whatsoever in becoming a full-time performing artiste" and is looking forward to his new challenge as operations manager with the ICO with a noticeable degree of enthusiasm. Currently living in Killaloe, Donagh is with the orchestra at the University of Limerick since November. His plans for the group are exciting and he intends to utitilise his vast experience gained through extensive travel to expand the profile of the ICO to hitherto unexplored regions during the coming season: "The ICO is now regarded as an orchestra with international appeal. We now have to bring the orchestra to a high level, to take a step up. We are not yet as well known as we would like in the UK, for instance, and plans are there to tour the Far East and more of Europe during the coming seasons. Our priority, however, is Ireland. International tours are a bonus."

Sixty Years of Music On Thursday afternoon, 28th May 1942, at 1 Suir View Newtown Waterford, an informal meeting took place at which a proposal to form a music club in Waterford was discussed. The four people present were : Miss Elizabeth Downey, Mrs Ida Starkie-O'Reilly, Mr William F Watt and Mr T F H Bayly. Miss Downey was a well-established teacher of singing and voice production in Waterford. Her success as a teacher was reflected in the many awards won by her pupils, and by the fact that in 1966 she moved to Dublin to take up a post at the Royal Irish Academy of Music. Sadly, she met her death shortly afterwards in a tragic traffic accident. Mrs O'Reilly had been senior professor of 'cello at the Academy, prior to her husband's transfer to Waterford a few years before as Garda Superintendant. Ida O'Reilly was one of Ireland's leading cellists and a member of the talented Starkie family, her brother Walter and sister Enid being renowned in academic circles. William F Watt, as well as being a highly successful Waterford businessman, also possessed a very beautiful tenor voice and was one of Ireland's best known singers. He was an enthusiastic musical philanthropist whose drive and energy was largely instrumental in the foundation and continued success of the Club. Maurice Bayly, a banker and music lover, shared the joint office of Honorary Secretary and Treasurer with Miss Downey until his transfer to Tralee in 1943. A minute from this meeting reads: "It was decided unanimously that there is a need in Waterford for some form of musical entity in order to further the interests of Chamber Music etc., to encourage local talent, and to invite well-known professionals from other centres to contribute items."

News Primary Information History Economy ... Strony po¶wiêcone Unii Europejskiej Vote for ours website in competition Eduseek !!! Ireland - culture Literature: Ireland is famous for its contributions to world literature. Two great mythological cycles in Gaelic "the Ulster (Red Branch) and the Fenian (Ossianic)" tell the stories of such legendary heroes as Cú Chulainn (Cuchulain), Maeve (Medb), Finn mac Cumhail (Finn MacCool), and Deirdre. After a long and bitter colonisation by England, Ireland gave the world some of the greatest writers in the English language, including Jonathan Swift, Oliver Goldsmith, and George Bernard Shaw. Associated with the struggle for independence in this century is the Irish literary revival, which produced the works of William Butler Yeats and Sean O'Casey. James Joyce was a formative influence on much of later 20th-century European literature. Music: Music has always been an important part of Irish culture, from the traditional accompaniment to festivals and funerals in the form of playing and ballad singing, to Irish dancing which is still practised in Irish communities around the world. The harp was the dominant instrument in early historical times. One of the earliest Irish composers whose work survives is Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738), the blind harpist and one of the last of the ancient bardic tradition. Traditional Irish music is now popular in many countries through the influence of groups as diverse as Clannad, the Chieftains, Altan, Dervish and Lunasa and the a capella singers Anuna, all of whom perform in a modern context without copromising the integrity of the orginal sound. Reflecting this versality is the phenomenon if Riverdance, with music composed by Bill Whelan, combining the best of Irish song, music and dance. On the jazz scene guitarist Louis Stewarrt has played with leading international musicains. Popular bands such as U2, ASH, The Corrs, The Cranberries and Westlife top the charts at home and abroad, as do individual singers, Van Morrison, Sinead O'Connor and Enya.

CONTENTS Finghin Collins - A Risk Taker Catherine Foley, graduate of the Graduate Diploma in Journalism 1987 and features writer and social columnist with the Irish Times, catches up with Finghin Collins, graduate of the BA in Music Performance from the Royal Irish Academy of Music during his hectic performance schedule. The concert at the National Concert Hall (NCH), which is to be conducted by Gerhard Markson, will be broadcast live throughout Europe. A couple of weeks later at the end of March, Collins will make his debut in Lisbon with the Gulbenkian Orchestra, again playing the Ravel concerto. Collins has been winning awards and scholarships in recognition of his unique talents as a pianist since he was a child. From the start he stood out as someone with a special gift. In 1999, the year he was conferred by DCU with a first class honours BA in Music Performance, graduating from the Royal Irish Academy of Music, he also won the Clara Haskil International Piano Competition in Vevey, Switzerland. While his skill and virtuosity had already been recognised through prizes such as semi-final prizes at both the Leeds and Dublin International Piano competitions in 1996 and 1997, and first prizes at the Rencontres Internationales de Jeunes Pianistes in Paris and Strasbourg in 1998, it was the Clara Haskil prize which truly catapulted Collins on to the world stage.
