Extractions: Why , one year after Dorothy DeLay left us, would people be eager to participate in the Starling-DeLay Symposium on Violin Studies? What is so unique about her legacy? What was the transforming power behind her teaching? Itzhak Perlman conducts a master class in Paul Hall. (Photo by Nan Melville) With these questions in mind, 119 people flocked to the second biannual Starling-DeLay Symposium, which ran June 3-7 at The Juilliard School. The first symposium, held two years ago, launched an event that provides a wonderful opportunity for young artists, teachers, and professional violinists to gain insight into the teaching methods of Dorothy DeLay, and to explore new approaches to their own teaching and performance. This year's symposium differed in that Miss DeLay, who died in March 2002, was not present. One of the world's most renowned violin teachers of the 20th century, she taught at Juilliard for more than 50 years and was the holder of the School's Dorothy Richard Starling Chair in Violin. "Legacy of Learning 2003" honored the memory of Dorothy DeLay and her great contributions to violin teaching, performance, and pedagogy. The five-day symposium was devoted principally to the topic of teaching the exceptional young violinist. Exploring this issue was a series of master classes with a distinguished roster of soloists and teachers, including Itzhak Perlman (who now holds the Dorothy Richard Starling Chair in Violin Studies), Paul Kantor, Brian Lewis, Anne Akiko Meyers, Donald Weilerstein, Won-Bin Yim, David Kim, and Stephen Clappâall former students of Miss DeLay who are intimately familiar with her pedagogical methods and who utilize elements of her approach in their own teaching. Participating in the master classes were 10 exceptionally talented young artists, chosen from some 150 applicants. Ranging in age from 9 to 23, the group included young violinists from the U.S., France, and Canada. Each presented repertoire of his or her choice in three master classes. The young artists were also featured in evening recitals in Paul Hall.

Extractions: Dorothy DeLay. (Photo by Christian Steiner) Dorothy DeLay, a member of the Juilliard violin faculty since 1948 whose students are among the most famous performers and teachers working around the world, died on March 24 at her home in Upper Nyack, N.Y., after a more than yearlong battle with cancer. She would have been 85 years old on March 31. Miss DeLay, as she preferred to be called, has been described as the world's foremost teacher of the violin by publications as disparate as The New York Times , France's Le Monde de la Musique , and South Africa's Die Volksblad . She began her distinguished career as a teacher at The Juilliard School in 1948. More than just a teacher of the violin, she frequently also was a mentor, confidant, career advisor, concert fashion consultant, and even surrogate mother. Among her students are many celebrated performers, including Itzhak Perlman, Cho-Liang Lin, Anne Akiko Meyers, Nadja SalernoSonnenberg, Shlomo Mintz, Nigel Kennedy, Robert McDuffie, Sarah Chang, Mark Kaplan, Rachel Lee, Midori, Gil Shaham, and Kyoko Takezawa. Violinists of the Juilliard, Tokyo, Cleveland, American, Tak¡cs, Mendelssohn, Blair, Fine Arts, and Vermeer String Quartets studied with her, and she taught concertmasters of the Berlin Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Royal Concertgebouw DeLay receiving the NEA National Medal of Arts from President Clinton in a ceremony at the White House in October 1994.

Extractions: CSO to focus on the great masterpieces Mary Ellyn Hutton, Post music writer Paavo Jarvi will encore his first season as Cincinnati Symphony music director with a focus on the great masterpieces. That's the best way, he said, to help the orchestra know him better and to establish a close working relationship. ''One of the most important things for me is to try to find a certain common ground with the orchestra in key repertoire important repertoire that one needs to start a process with. Paavo Jarvi ''After all, it is a very young marriage.'' The music they will make together during the 2002-03 Music Hall season is close to Jarvi's heart, he added, ''reflecting my own personal tastes and inclinations.'' On the season roster are Mozart's Symphony No. 40 (''Jupiter''), Brahms' Second Symphony, Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 (''Pathetique''), Richard Strauss' ''Don Juan'' and ''Till Eulenspiegel'' and Ravel's ''Daphnis and Chloe'' Suite No. 2.

Extractions: violinist 14-year-old violinist Yejin Kim has been playing the violin since the age of two and a half, and has been enjoying every minute of it. At a very young age, she showed a unique talent with music by being able to play melodies on the piano after just hearing them once. Her very first performance was at the age of 5, when she performed Dvorak's "Humoresque" at the Wilshire E-bell Theater. The public soon recognized her extraordinary talent when she performed at the eminent Ford Amphitheatre, at the youthful age of nine. The Korea Times raved about her performance of Kreisler's "Praeludium and Allegro," and Rimsy-Korsakov's "The Bumble-bee", and Massenet's "Meditation" from "Thais", saying, "Her technique, musicality, and personality of her playing is quite remarkable in a girl so young."

HippoPress no less than three spectacularly talented young musicians all on their way to greatcareerspianist Navah Perlman, violinist anne akiko meyers and cellist http://www.hippopress.com/features/020307_sexysymphony.html
Extractions: HippoPress.com Okay, quick-when you hear "symphony orchestra," the first words that come to mind are ? Did your answer fall somewhere between "pretentious foreigners" and "Thurston Howell III." For many young people, the symphony and its patrons are simply a world apart, a closed society that belongs to others, most of whom are old fogies. Right or wrong, it's an age-old image problem. Way back in 1939, the Marx Brothers got big laughs in their film "At the Circus" by setting an entire orchestra and its pompous conductor adrift at sea on a barge. Truth is, the audience for classical music in the United States has always skewed older. It's only when people have the income, time and cultural interests to support a concert-going habit that they attend regularly. Since the 1960s, the median age of concertgoers across the nation has held steady at about the mid-50s, according to the American Symphony Orchestra League. But in Manchester, the paradox is that young people play a surprisingly big role in the classical concert scene. Many musicians who make up the New Hampshire Symphony are recent graduates from the best schools in Boston and elsewhere. Soloists who perform with the orchestra are often young artists on their way to becoming the hottest concert stars of tomorrow.

Extractions: Times Jobs Contact us By JOHN FLEMING The Florida Orchestra's 2000-01 season gets under way this week when the musicians convene for their first rehearsals since May. The season starts out with a pops program next weekend, then the masterworks series opens Sept. 28-Oct. 1, with music director Jahja Ling conducting rhapsodies of Alfven, Rachmaninoff, Ravel, Gershwin and Liszt. In many ways, it's a pivotal time for the orchestra. This is Ling's second-to-last season as music director, and the focus will increasingly be on the search for his successor, with several guest conductors receiving special attention. This is also the first full season under executive director Leonard Stone, who is expected to make significant changes in the orchestra's management, marketing and fundraising. The orchestra continues to have a venue problem in Tampa. It is losing out in competition for dates in Carol Morsani Hall, the largest hall of Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, which is frequently given over to long-running Broadway tours. As a result, many concerts will be played in TBPAC's smaller Ferguson Hall, which is acoustically and logistically inadequate for symphonic concerts.
