Male, teen, Range: C3 – B4. </span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">Logainne Schwartzandgrubeniere (Schwartzy)</span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">Logainne is the youngest and most politically aware speller, often making comments about current political figures. She is driven by internal and external pressure, but above all by a desire to win to make her two fathers proud. She is somewhat of a neat freak, speaks with a lisp, and will be back next year.

She comes from a family where excellence is expected and so simply produced. A parochial school student, she assumes God, too, expects perfection. She sees herself as a mass of problems but she keeps them to herself. Female, Teen, Range C4 – E5.</span></div></div><div style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #222222;"><br /></span></div><div style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #222222;">Olive Ostrovsky</span></div><div style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #222222;">A young newcomer to competitive spelling. Her mother is in an ashram in India, and her father is working late, as usual, but he is trying to come sometime during the bee. Having found comfort in its words and vastness, Olive made friends with her dictionary at a very young age, helping her to make it to the competition. She starts enormously shy, and slowly blossoms.

His famous “Magic Foot” method of spelling has boosted him to spelling glory, even though he only has one working nostril</span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">and a touchy, bullying personality. He develops a crush on Olive. Male, teen, Range E2 – B4.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">Rona Lisa Peretti</span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">The number-one realtor in Putnam County, a former Putnam County Spelling Bee Champion herself, and the returning moderator. She is a sweet woman who loves children, but she can be very stern when it comes to dealing with Vice Principal Panch and his feelings for her. Her interest in the competition is unflagging and drives it forward. Female, Adult, Range B3 – F5.</span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;"><br /></span></div></span><div style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #222222;">Mitch Mahoney</span></div><div style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: #222222;">The Official Comfort Counselor. An ex-convict, Mitch is performing his community service with the Bee, and hands out juice boxes to losing students. He has no idea how to offer comfort, but does find himself wishing he could find a way to make the kids feel better. Male, Early 20s, G3 – A4.</span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div><span style="color: #222222;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">Douglas Panch</span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">The Vice Principal. Frustrated with his life, he finds the drive of the young spellers alien to him. After five years’ absence from the Bee, Panch returns as judge. There was an “incident” at the Twentieth Annual Bee, but he claims to be in “a better place” now, thanks to a better diet. He is infatuated with Rona Lisa Peretti, who does not return his affections. Male, Adult, Range N/A. </span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="color: #222222;"><u>OTHER CHARACTERS (may be doubled by actors playing parts listed above)</u></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222;">Carl Dad: </span><span style="color: #222222;">Schwarzy’s main trainer, the more intense and competitive of Schwarzy’s fathers.

Featured here are the lesser known (well, as far as I can tell) and less performed pieces that somehow caught my attention. I acknowledge this is a frivolous subject for serious choral music [and let's face it, not my typical reader] ... but Covid. So I'm writing about what I want to. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">We'll start with an odd one, called <a href="https://glennmeade.bandcamp.com/track/cooking-school" target="_blank">Cooking School</a>, written by Glenn Meade and rescored for Chicago A Cappella. It is unique, period - a piece devoted entirely to the craft of cooking - but very jazzy and a lot of fun, splitting into 8 parts at the end. Next, listen to a song about Creole cooking, which gets the spotlight in Stephan Chatman's <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Due-South%3A-2.-What%27s-Cookin%27%3F/10880414.item#/submit" target="_blank">What's Cookin'?</a>(SATB) (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TpVd18KwOKu7nn1dmW89TyxIMQR9N7Y2xWFdBxMUC0I/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Text</a> by Tara Wohlberg), from his set <a href="https://www.canticledistributing.com/catalog/product/view/sku/7.0720*" target="_blank">Due South</a>. A slow and sultry swung song, it speaks of every southern dish on the planet, savoring every dish as it is named. For those seeking dishes from other cultures, check out <a href="https://www.morningstarmusic.com/laylay-agulaylay-jergenson-dale-tb.html" target="_blank">Laylay Agulaylay</a>, a <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/159yb8RigfBM795eicOoyy7bKLoCJn4EwP7CoyTBMLIQ/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Philippine folk song</a> about the delicious foods served at a couple's </span><span style="font-family: arial;">wedding feast for all to enjoy. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Several tributes have been made to the song-worthy spud, but </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz35iIDksnA" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Little Potato</a><span style="font-family: arial;">, (arranged by <a href="https://www.carolbarnett.net/_assets/compositions/PDF/PerusalScores/1_perusal_Little%20Potato.pdf" target="_blank">Carol Barnett</a>, <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xVTBXzd2Wc168uma5qfHe-aWPgyjuBNtPKIMwNvwEqU/edit" target="_blank">text</a> by Malcolm Dalglish) is the most adorable. He used to sing it to</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> his first infant, and it grabs the heart while making you smile. Even the lack of potatoes</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TTGgLj8Pn9UKoiUOxulKuLNZ5jFBILzmvAssXBvEOBU/edit?usp=sharing" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">gets a song</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> in</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> the Irish </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mQR6MSMBKo" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Famine Lament</a> <span style="font-family: arial;">(SA) set by</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/famine-lament-mooney-david-two-part-treble-voices.html" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">David Mooney</a><span style="font-family: arial;">, a mournful lament over potato blight. </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Also lamentably (I mourned), </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Garrison Keillor<span> does not print his <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfiTblfME44" target="_blank">music</a> (4:27 time mark): if he did, </span><a href="https://www.vocalessence.org/recording/hymn-to-potatoes/" target="_blank">Hymn to Potatoes</a><span> (arranged by Paul Brandvik) </span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">would be made available to all</span><span style="font-family: arial;">.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Corn isn't really a sexy vegetable**, but still has a major place in several cultures' culinary traditions. Native American <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wsFgPloSPATwvyKEpW54JKGC74GF4J0LOYA7Ihms48Y/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Zuni women often sang while grinding corn</a>, which brings us to Excier Rodriquez's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Y1A-pfIV0" target="_blank">arrangement</a>, <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Okaya/10931456.item#/submit" target="_blank">Ockaya</a> (SATB)***. Also called a 'rain song', it features an ear of corn that notices the clouds nearing and invites a flood. From Venezuela we have <a href="https://www.singers.com/folio/Cristian_Grases/Canto_de_Pilon/08301912/" target="_blank">Canto de Pilon</a>(SSA), a <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jMzvx2WuayGcN0HXj49Itc0_x1MYpwnLG2J6JZo-PrU/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">corn-grinding</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi-NvaZXNIc" target="_blank">song</a> set by Cristian Grases. The singers convey grinding throughout the piece by using percussive sounds and motions. <a href="https://www.transcontinentalmusic.com/PDI-Shibolet-Basadeh-73003" target="_blank">Charles Davidson's choral setting</a> (SATB) of Israeli folk song </span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Xm9o2BZnAiZlYvsShIewp4-gWba9mlpapqx45GlG9cM/edit" target="_blank">Shibolet Basadeh</a></span><span style="font-family: arial;"> is a joyful celebration of a gorgeous crop of corn and its coming harvest. </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Another work song about grinding grains is Wendy Stuart's setting of a Japanese folk song song, </span><a href="https://www.singers.com/folio/Wendy_Bross_Stuart/Toshima_Rice_Pounding_Song/08745242/" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Toshima Mochi Tsuko Bushi</a><span style="font-family: arial;">. It is a celebratory song, and may be sung as a work song while pounding rice into rice balls (aka mochi). </span></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Since it hasn't happened yet, let's focus on fish [a sentence I never expected to type, ever.] I've found a fishing folk song from Cuba, then a cultural study of fishing on the east coast in North America, and lastly, more of a 'what are we doing here in a boat' song. The <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/10HlRmdUUwvNCTROAcZisfairbrVrDmAUhyv76FjdZX8/edit" target="_blank">Cuban folk song</a>, <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/A-Pescar-Camaron/10456311.item#/submit" target="_blank">A Pescar Camaron</a> (SSATB or SSA) was set by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihLmAF7Rbbo" target="_blank">Caldwell & Ivory</a>, and is accompanied by a lively piano part and percussion. It is a lighthearted representation of folksong, singing about their chosen trade, as well as incorporating Afro-cuban dance rhythms into the song. Next is Stephen Chatman's piece, <a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/due-east-no-4-fishing.html" target="_blank">Fishing</a> (SSATBB), which is a more visceral and evocative depiction of the sensations of a sailor at sea. The piece belongs to a series of four choral suites [<a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/due-east-complete-collection.html" target="_blank">Due East</a>, with <a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/due-north-complete-collection.html#" target="_blank">North</a>, <a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/due-south-complete-collection-chatman-stephen-satb.html" target="_blank">South</a> and <a href="https://www.ecspublishing.com/due-west.html" target="_blank">West</a>] that examine the cultures and landscapes in the different regions of North America. They're quite stunning. For a contrasting depiction of North American fishing, check out <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mmRfgUKCrLoWfzwQNUwwYsYj2VrtSxu9ZoamORw1QTk/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Bob Applebaum</a>'s <a href="https://www.morningstarmusic.com/bah-wilderness-two-songs-in-praise-of-the-indoors-1-recipe-for-fishing.html" target="_blank">Recipe for Fishing</a> (SATB) (first song of his set, Bah! Wilderness: <a href="https://www.morningstarmusic.com/bah-wilderness-two-songs-in-praise-of-the-indoors-2-walking-in-the-woods.html" target="_blank">Two Songs </a>in Praise of the Indoors). For some, clearly, tuna should be 'caught' at the grocery store. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As a closer, I'll focus on the enjoyment of food (and food wordplay) found in May Swenson's delightful poem "</span><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NCc81oxWjoxPWk2Hqrv6nwuySRtHbc_rss3btYeljjY/edit?usp=sharing" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Summer's Bounty</a><span style="font-family: arial;">". It is a whimsical meandering through several different-yet-similarly-named foods (ending with 'puppies of hush'), and was used for </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr02Lq8oI2U" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Paul Carey's Summer Bounty</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> (SATB) in Play With Your Food (Part 1) and </span><a href="https://www.bobapplebaum.com/music_files/transcontinental-summer-bounty.mp3" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Bob Applebaum's Summer's Bounty</a><span style="font-family: arial;">. And finally, </span><span style="font-family: arial;">for a food-themed encore, I loved Chicago A Capella's genius choice of arranging Lyle Lovett's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-42NzUuUlLY" target="_blank">Church</a> [No music, sadly}. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The End</span><span style="font-family: arial;">****.</span></div><p><br /></p><p>*<span style="font-family: arial;">Clearly, I need to start practicing more.

Yes, you can perform streaming online, etc (and outdoors, maybe with the right set up and people who can support the situation technically) - but honestly, the whole draw for (apology for the apostrophes) 'collaborative folk' was the idea of performing with others. Like, Live*. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">This month, I've had to opt out of my choral gig (private school), because singing and Covid 19 <a href="https://www.npr.org/2020/08/10/888945949/is-singing-together-safe-in-the-era-of-coronavirus-not-really-experts-say" target="_blank">don't go well together</a> (ultimately, a personal decision). I still do have my church gig, where circumstances are very distanced and safe/non-choral. But wow, is it jarring emotionally to be so musically separated from my usual "normal'. I haven't done a show since February. I have no future concerts planned (not really), and everything feels like I'm planning from week to week. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I've compensated with other activities (i.e. more experiments in the kitchen/trying out recipes/baking, my dogs are ECSTATIC about how many hours I can devote to them, and I'm developing a backyard gardening/landscaping scheme, etc). But the hardest thing, overall, is not connecting with people on a musical level. </span><span style="font-family: arial;">I think I'm trying to say, the pandemic screws with many things, but for a musician - we almost lose the sense of who we are. Practicing is more of a chore when there's no performance in sight. How do we spend our evenings when we aren't in rehearsals? </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Ultimately - I know everything will be fine (and wow, do I know a lot more about baking now). Compare life to the last pandemic, I believe it was <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/1918-pandemic-h1n1.html#:~:text=The%201918%20influenza%20pandemic%20was,spread%20worldwide%20during%201918%2D1919." target="_blank">around 1918</a> - at least now we have the internet, Kindle, Zoom and countless musical score resources online available for practicing ... things could be worse. But musicians (performers, conductors, educators, etc) are mourning the loss of musical connections and the sense of self we found in them. May 'normal life' return soon. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">In the meantime, I'm trying Ina Garten's <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/buttermilk-cheddar-biscuits-recipe-1943876" target="_blank">Cheddar Biscuits</a> next ...</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">*</span><span style="font-family: arial;">It's just not the same otherwise. A</span><span style="font-family: arial;">nd really feels kind of pointless, tbh. </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Sorry. Not trying to be a buzzkill. Just sayin'. </span></p><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>Billie Whittakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14184585553103987851noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7494169014788174276.post-51499051798740236542020-08-19T23:12:00.015-07:002023-07-29T11:59:32.162-07:00Groups Singing About Food (or The Choral Food One)<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I admit that I tend to fall down rabbit holes (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHte24GGHD4" target="_blank">like Alice</a>, I suppose). I start looking into something that interests me and get sucked in, deep (much like Doctoral students and <a href="http://www.terminally-incoherent.com/blog/2009/04/09/smurf-reproduction/" target="_blank">pop culture fanatics</a>). </span><span style="font-family: arial;">For example, who knew there is a stunning amount of pieces written for choirs about food? I've put together a Sampler Plate* of the ones I enjoyed the most**: a gastronomic journey trekking through a multitude of dishes and cultures.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">In a sense, Coffee IS a food group, so of course we start with J.S. Bach's miniature <a href="https://blogs.loc.gov/nls-music-notes/2019/03/bach-and-the-coffee-cantata/" target="_blank">comic opera</a>, the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5Ocydot-vA" target="_blank">Coffee Cantata</a> (BWV 211). It is about a young woman named Aria who loves coffee, and her disgruntled father's attempts to ban her from the drink. Here's a <a href="http://emmanuelmusic.org/notes_translations/translations_cantata/t_bwv211.htm" target="_blank">snippet</a> showing her devotion:</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Father sir, but do not be so harsh!</span> </div></blockquote><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">If I couldn't, three times a day,</span> </div></blockquote><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">be allowed to drink my little cup of coffee,</span> </div></blockquote><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">in my anguish I will turn into </span></div></blockquote><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">a shriveled-up roast goat,</span> </div></blockquote><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Ah! How sweet coffee tastes,</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">more delicious than a thousand kisses,</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">milder than muscatel wine.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Coffee, I have to have coffee, </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">and, if someone wants to pamper me,</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">ah, then bring me coffee as a gift!</span></div></blockquote><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Eventually, the father agrees she can have three cups of coffee a day and writes it into her marriage contract (prenup stipulations have come a long way since 1735). I actually found two other riffs on this idea, Peter Tiefenbach's <a href="https://myscena.org/events/cappuccino-cantata/" target="_blank">Cappuccino Cantata</a> (AKA <a href="https://artsfile.ca/chamberfest-cannabis-cantata-a-pot-pourri-of-music/" target="_blank">The Lonely Barista</a>) and Lee Barrow's <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Latte-Cantate-updated-version-Cantata/dp/1489582851" target="_blank">Latte Cantate</a>. Each treatment is unique: Tiefenbach recasts the daughter as a lonely barista caught in a love triangle with her manager and a frequent customer, while Barrow updates Bach's cantata with more modern references and, um, weed. [No recordings of either, I'm afraid - comment below if you find any.]</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Cooking and baking gets featured in "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpdcj_R6Sg8" target="_blank">Punching the Dough</a>", arranged by <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Punching+the+Dough/3228335.item#/submit" target="_blank">Alice Parker</a> (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jPGERfcNhN4GmggGF1gmP--b5Q8wOTjKqlN9DYMvb6s/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">lyrics</a>). In this piece, a (rather exasperated) pioneer wife compares her culinary tasks to the work of men ('While you're punching the cattle, I'm punching the dough"), pointing out her equally hard work in the kitchen. Another song about kneading and baking (and the actual baker) is Colombian folk song, </span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBXz6zOUjeY" target="_blank">Maquerúle</a> (lyrics <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l8nCchA9iv-Ry8DfEnpg7AW8jWXSS5D-D7AEebfwIrw/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">translation</a>), arr. by </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Julián Gómez-Giraldo. The chorus encourages the baker to "knead the bread, </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Maquerúle, work it out, work the bread with your hands, sweat it out". </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Focusing more on the enjoyment of baked goods is Theodore Lucas's "</span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_IWoA68wck" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Bagels and Biscuits</a><span style="font-family: arial;">", a lighthearted a capella ode to brunch. Yes, there is also jam. </span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">For the soup course, there are multiple options. If you want something spicy, try "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSgHH4dbBCg" target="_blank">Chili Con Carne</a>" (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/195Ni1gGdC1sCZkzp60E4JtRW0BquALfF6fITzj_wo8o/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">lyrics</a>) by Anders Edenroth, a very rhythmic a capella piece celebrating the Mexican dish. If you prefer the cuisine of the Dominican Republic, check out "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZMI3uZJtak" target="_blank">La Sopa de Isabel</a>" (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lGnxE38RGiZ6r5yoHJLwbw-zejWbUdq0X39oki0F6xI/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">lyrics</a>) by Francisco </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Nuñez, an upbeat merengue about "the potato soup, a soup so tasty no one would leave it". In Haitian cuisine, one of its most popular meals is the focus of "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krVs-bDaJzQ" target="_blank">Tchaka</a>"(<a href="https://sydneyguillaume.com/compositions/tchaka-text.pdf" target="_blank">lyrics</a>), an a capella piece arranged by Sydney Guillaume (based on the poem by Gabriel T. Guillaume). It's an incredibly exciting piece about stew, with Haitian Creole Text. Rounding out this category are the well known "<a href="https://youtu.be/cV-ELtsmtm0" target="_blank">Beautiful Soup</a>" from the Alice in Wonderland choruses by Irving Fine (with a wickedly difficult piano part, btw) and the lesser known "<a href=" https://cypresschoral.com/composers/james-fankhauser/good-fish-chowder/" target="_blank">Good Fish Chowder</a>" by James Fankhauser. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">We have a large crop of selections for the vegetable course, as well. John Muehleisen has written two choral sets entitled "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nQrmVpI7Ig" target="_blank">Eat Your Vegetables</a>". <a href="https://johnmuehleisen.com/eat-vegetables-set-one/" target="_blank">Set one</a> has three songs featuring zucchini, a carrot </span><span style="font-family: arial;">(apparently a human carrot as well)</span><span style="font-family: arial;">, and some kind of pep-rally like chant about rutabagas. Set two (<a href="https://www.tri-cityherald.com/entertainment/arts-culture/article32146722.html" target="_blank">harder to find, btw</a>) has three songs which include a tribute to eggplants, to Brussels sprouts and also (intriguingly titled "March of the Stalks") to celery. Potato fans will enjoy </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Anna-Mari Kahara's Finnish song, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7EJNXx6070" target="_blank">Laulu perunoiden kiehuessa</a>", which translates to "Song while the Potatoes Boil". A joyous song, Kahara's piece revels in the celebration of life and singing. Cabbage lovers will enjoy <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Bile-Them-Cabbage-Down/1955491.item#.Xz4YLJNKi-o" target="_blank">Mack Wilberg</a>'s hoedown, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k16MsjROG-A" target="_blank">Bile Them Cabbage Down</a>". </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I've created another category for people whose emotions have entangled their food with their significant other. A foodie definitely authored the text to <a href="https://www.giamusic.com/store/resource/play-with-your-food-i-summers-bounty-ii-mashed-potato-love-poem-iii-vending-machine-print-ww1407" target="_blank">Paul Carey</a>'s "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GO4ScGDS5E" target="_blank">Mashed Potato/Love Poem</a>" : "If ever I had to choose between you and a third helping of mashed potato, (whipped lightly with a fork not whisked, and a little pool of butter melting in the middle ...). I think I'd choose the mashed potato. But I'd choose you next." We find similar torn emotions in Steven Sametz's "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sR1BZlbnWX4" target="_blank">Y Berenjenas con Queso</a>" (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1faDqFqyr671eQ5LdiH0n-VfABunxs3gs1WPWJdCwgyQ/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">And Eggplant with Cheese</a>), a wonderful renaissance-style setting about a gourmand agonizing over whom/what has captured his heart: the beautiful Inez, ham or eggplant with cheese.</span></span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;"> A piece combining pop culture, the love of food and the love of its cook, is Paul Crabtree's "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J1tVljO6ig" target="_blank">Marge, You Make the Best Pork Chops</a>". Brief yet powerful, in this piece you can hear Homer Simson's true worship and devotion to both the woman and the pork chop. There's a lovely jazz lilt in Paris Rutherford's <a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Gravy-Waltz/3303847.item#/submit" target="_blank">choral</a> arrangement of "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74UwA83H0Tw" target="_blank">Gravy Waltz</a>" (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JJ-BT1FYCyid55O-4EgihQCqYITeLl6rFV7xoxjKYUw/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">lyrics</a>), where a man appreciates both his woman and her cooking. The story of original sin gets a different retelling in Carey's "<a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Eve%27s-Confession/10276044.item#/submit" target="_blank">Eve's Confession</a>", the <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S8cC2PYgoeUX1CNrQ87d-zZegPvVO97SxJf6y6H96Ec/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">poem</a> by Diane Lockward. Alas, Eve's inner battle - her loyalty divided between her husband and an (well, <i>his</i>) apple fritter - eventually ends with guilt and nary a crumb left.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I've grouped the next three pieces in the laziest way possible: they are all large works about food, and they were hard to research. However, I could not leave out PDQ Bach's <a href="https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/the-seasonings-s-1-1-2-tsp-sheet-music/1902188" target="_blank">Grand Oratorio</a>, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MOAtq91idk" target="_blank">The Seasonings</a>", which is utterly ridiculous in the best possible way (he actually utilizes kazoos and a 'tromboon' - a bassoon/trombone hybrid "with all the disadvantages of both"). There was also </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Bob Chilcott's a capella set, "<a href="https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/fragments-from-his-dish-sheet-music/3815801" target="_blank">Fragments from His Dish"</a> (six choral pieces on the theme of food) which uses diverse texts (Pepys' diary, Christmas Day 1666; the Newcastle Chronicle from 1770, etc) and is supposed to be funny and witty. And then there is </span><span style="font-family: arial;">Jean </span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">Françaix's "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhvpDEYxaEI" target="_blank">Ode à la Gastronomie</a>", a 12 voice a capella choral work whose text uses a famous book (Physiology of Taste, Jean Brillat-Savarin) as a starting point and gets surreal from there. Apparently within the piece are onomatopoeic word-play (kitchen noises), gastronomic puns and a discussion of the erotic properties of the black truffle </span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">(but I couldn't find lyric translations ANYWHERE, and I'm relying on other people's comments)</span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">In the <a href="https://smpjazz.com/store/product/everybody-eats-when-they-come-to-my-house/" target="_blank">choral</a> settings of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E03NZOIxGmQ" target="_blank">Cab Calloway</a>'s "<a href="https://jonathanarthur.bandcamp.com/track/everybody-eats-when-they-come-to-my-house" target="_blank">Everybody Eats When They Come to My House</a>", a showcase of hospitality and the enjoyment of food, we find a wonderful summary for this (rather extensive) rabbit hole dive. To conclude*** this foodfest, listen to the</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> "</span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LimaKQHC31g&list=PLiCrKyr2QJukPvaKIWZrU9m0J-O6belw3&index=7" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Banquet Fugue</a><span style="font-family: arial;">" by </span><a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Banquet-Fugue/1525765.item#/submit " style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">John Rutter</a><span style="font-family: arial;">, a rather adorable piece that ends with a realistic belch. It's lyrics are full of onomatopoeia words about eating:</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Guzzle guzzle guzzle, munch munch, gobble gobble,</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chomp, pass the salt and the pepper and the mustard </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">and vinegar and the bread</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Munch munch, chomp chomp, gobble gobble</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">There's a fly in my soup! </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Slurp slurp slurp</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Well, it won't drink much sir!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Fetch the doctor, I'm feeling rather strange.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Guzzle guzzle - munch munch - chomp chomp - gobble gobble</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">*Burp*</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">*Sorry, I'll limit the puns as much as possible</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">**Like <a href="http://goodcompanybw.blogspot.com/2020/08/quarentinewhile.html" target="_blank">before</a>, parameters for musical choices were mainly 'stuff I like' and music had to actually BE about the food/recipe, not just use the word 'food' (i.e. '<a href="https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/italian-salad-sheet-music/21223446" target="_blank">Italian Salad</a>' has nothing to do with salad, nor is '<a href="https://www.jwpepper.com/Musical-Risotto/1833003.item#/" target="_blank">Musical Risotto</a>' remotely about creamy rice). Additionally, I eliminated most pieces that didn't have sheet music and recordings, or that were less complicated composition wise (no snobbery, I'm just more interested in harder music. Wait, there's snobbery.).</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">***Actually, I still have some honorable mentions (they made me laugh for some reason):</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Best Swedish Chef imitation: </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtellhWjFKk" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">El Hambo</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> by Jaakko Mantyjarvi</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Best use of the phrase "Cheese, the ambassadors of peace": <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HStc9rx2tMg" target="_blank">Carmina Ricotta</a>, Eric Barnes</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Best use of the phrase "Give me chocolate, or give me death": <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgSVFvBjfSI" target="_blank">Bittersweet Tango</a>, Eric Barnes</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Best <a href="http://missjacobsonsmusic.blogspot.com/2013/12/" target="_blank">corruption</a> of Pachelbel: </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELNtQiAKGrc" style="font-family: arial;" target="_blank">Taco Bell Canon</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Just because: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvrvjO-0r9I" target="_blank">Such a Nice Brisket!</a>, Jack Curtis Dubowsky</span></div><div></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>Billie Whittakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14184585553103987851noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7494169014788174276.post-78994497193564275652020-08-10T21:04:00.014-07:002023-07-29T12:15:49.517-07:00Quarentinewhile ...<p><span><span style="font-family: arial;">Some collaborative piano geekery for you:</span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-family: arial;">Covid19 has caused a lot of things (i.e. increased levels of anxiety and backyard vegetable gardening) and also launched a new trend: baking. Nationwide, since March 2020, thousands of banana breads, vats of frothy sourdough starters and stacks of cakes have appeared. Stress-baking, our new favorite way to kill time (<a href="https://www.finedininglovers.com/article/bread-and-foccacia-art-new-lockdown-past-time" target="_blank">some people invest more time than others</a>). Further proof (no pun intended*) of the trend was the widespread disappearance of flour and yeast from grocery stores for 3 months. Stockpiling is another new hobby this year, apparently. </span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I also have spent waaay too much time in the kitchen, and am primarily thankful that I haven't grated off my thumb yet (pianist, remember?). Not that performing is much of an option these days - most musicians are presently muzzled, so to speak. Live performances, any group singing or similar interactions are <a href="https://www.livescience.com/covid-19-superspreader-singing.html " target="_blank">not the safest thing</a>: Zoom, live streaming and outside performances from a distance are our unsatisfying alternatives. Small wonder that 'comfort meals' are so <a href="https://www.saveur.com/coronavirus-comfort-cooking/" target="_blank">popular</a> now. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Occasionally, culinary thoughts wander into the music realm - consider how <a href="https://www.seeadot.com/posts/how-to-program-a-concert-planning-a-full-course-meal " target="_blank">recital programming</a> is often discussed in terms of meal planning. Other times, gastronomy veers directly into music scores** (or flat out T-bones the Mack truck that is opera in this case). For example, Lee Hoiby's one-act opera <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTMg-mlzhRE" target="_blank">Bon </a></span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTMg-mlzhRE" target="_blank">Appétit!</a>, pairs the sung text of a cookbook written by master chef Julia Child with a small chamber orchestra. The mezzo has to sing <i>and</i> bake simultaneously (its kind of like watching an operatic Rachel Ray episode). For those who'd prefer not to fling frosting onstage, there is no actual cooking in Leonard Bernstein's song cycle,</span></span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUbARqRHjJo" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">La Bonne Cuisine</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (</span><a href="https://www.lieder.net/lieder/assemble_texts.html?SongCycleId=596" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">lyrics</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">). There's still plenty of drama in the four French <a href="http://foodandwinemavens.blogspot.com/2013/03/emile.dumont-leonard.bernstein-la.bonne.cuisine.francaise.Manuel.economique.html" target="_blank">recipes</a>: from the pressing urgency of the 'plum pudding' to the demanding 'rabbit in a hurry', the cycle is a great vehicle for both performers to channel their inner Gordon Ramsay.</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></p><div><span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">Some operas and songs favor specific dishes instead of list ingredients. Seymour Barab's one-act opera [parody], "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMud2vFcgaQ&t=33s" target="_blank">La Pizza con Funghi</a>" (Mushroom Pie) centers around Countess Formaggio attempting to kill her husband with poisonous mushrooms. </span></span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">Less homicidal but equally funny is William Bolcom's "</span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdP-x_PzaTw" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">Lime Jello Marshmallow Cottage Cheese Surprise</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">"(</span><a href="https://genius.com/William-bolcom-lime-jell-o-marshmallow-cottage-cheese-surprise-lyrics" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">lyrics</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">). Its a hysterical romp that pokes fun at potlucks, the disturbing cooking trends of the 70s, and Ladies' Club norms. The "Ice Cream Sextet" from Weill's Street Scene also deserves a shout out (or a scream, I suppose). The strangest one in this category is Gabriel Kahane's "</span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkJKXTcZLA4" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">If Anyone Knows...</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">"(Timestamp 1:58)(</span><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/13QLTm6M6sh_eH5UAt8J54D0gt34V9rtUOmAKyhq5mf4/edit?usp=sharing" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">lyrics</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">) from his song cycle "</span><a href="https://gabrielkahane.bandcamp.com/album/craigslistlieder" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;" target="_blank">Craigslistlieder</a><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">". I challenge you to find any other song about sandwich relish. </span><span style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I was rather stunned to discover not one, but <i>two</i> song cycles about sentient vegetables. Daron Hagen's song cycle, "<a href="https://www.daronhagen.com/store/vegetable-verselets" target="_blank">Vegetable Verselets</a>"(<a href="https://www.daronhagen.com/aucourant" target="_blank">lyrics</a>) portrays a narcissist cucumber, militant corn, betrothed celery and more. Sure to make you cough loudly and knock several times on your fridge door before you open it from now on, is Danika Loren's "<a href="https://www.danikalorensoprano.com/sheet-music" target="_blank">The Sex Life of Vegetables</a>".

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Just wanted to share a transcription I just finished as a project - Wonderfully Made, by Ellie Holcomb. It's for anyone who might find it handy - the song (as of yet) doesn't have any kind of Lead Sheet, just a chart, so I transcribed it (mainly due to an abundance of time I now have on my hands). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">R & H provides tracks for 4 songs: the HipHop section of Girl For You and Bailouts #1-3 (Bailout tracks do not have pre-recorded backing vocals, however).

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Oddities:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">That's Why You Love Me (uptempo punk rock) - which is on the OBC - is replaced by Can't Help But Love Me (slow jam) in the licensed material. I have not found a good recording of this song. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The World Wide Web is Forever is not on the OBC album, but it is in the licensed material. In some versions it was cut and replaced by the song "Total Loser". </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here's a list of what singers were bringing to musical theatre auditions in San Antonio (they were requested to bring in music from 1990-present, most did). Top three most done female songs were 'Live Out Loud' from a Little Princess, 'Breathe' from In the Heights and 'The Finer Things' from Jane Eyre. The men didn't have too many repeats, except for 'What do I Need with Love' from Thoroughly Modern Millie.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #333333;">Nowadays so much of being a collaborative pianist is being versatile and entrepreneurial. Here's a <a href="https://www.eighthblackbird.org/lab/">great opportunity</a> to work - for <i>free</i> - with a group that has made a name for themselves for being both exactly that (and excellent, to boot). </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">"Eighth Blackbird is excited to be announcing plans for a new summer training program, the Blackbird Creative Lab (“The Lab”), focused on both cutting edge musicianship, dynamic performance aesthetic and savvy inventive development.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #333333; margin: 0px 0px 1.33333em; text-align: left; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Lab’s mission is to inspire the next generation of performers and composers to share in the ensemble’s vision: to champion a distinctive, dynamic and engaging performance aesthetic. This intensive, human-centered experience will immerse lab fellows in a learn-by-doing, exploratory process of creating new work. By discovering and developing an audacious curatorial vision, lab fellows will be launched on their paths as provocateurs and visionaries in the arts.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This summer's starting off with very little relaxation: May musical endeavors include playing in the pit for "A Chorus Line" at the Playhouse, playing with </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">the San Antonio Wind Ensemble (piano) and with the San Antonio Symphony Baroque Series (harpsichord). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">"A Chorus Line" is a fun show to play, and has very little downtime for the Keys I book (which I prefer to long dialogue breaks). We have a great pit band, 11 strong (!), and we're a little over halfway through. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Wind Ensemble gig includes 2 pieces, Grainger's "Children's March: Over the Hills and Far Away" and Marquez's "Danzon No. 2". I <i>adore</i> playing the Danzon, with its Latin rhythms, the Grainger is less enjoyable to play simply because it isn't written as pianistically (with a couple almost physically implausible moments thrown in, to boot).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">As for the Baroque stuff, all I can say is WHEE!! Love it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hello, it's been awhile - </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Just an update on what I've been up to . . .</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm finishing up a grad degree at UTSA this semester*.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The degree, although nominally a 'solo performance' degree, has managed to cover several areas of collaborative piano at the same time. For example: I began studying the harpsichord - which enabled me to learn/perform Brandenburg No. 5 last year with a chamber ensemble - and presently </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm prepping for a Baroque recital at the end of this month. <a href="http://www.rachelpodger.com/">Rachel Podger</a> is doing a 1-week residency here, so I've been immersing myself in Telemann, Vivaldi, Bach and Purcell. </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: large;">We're doing Vivaldi </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHos9i-fjSs"><span style="font-size: large;">Summer</span></a><span style="font-size: large;"> and </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pqCuDK0wTg"><span style="font-size: large;">Winter</span></a><span style="font-size: large;">, Bach </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSfl1kirigY"><span style="font-size: large;">Concerto in A minor, BWV 1041</span></a><span style="font-size: large;">, Telemann </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcwxyVkoj54"><span style="font-size: large;">Concerto for flute and Violin TWV 52:e3,</span></a><span style="font-size: large;"> and selections from Purcell's Fairy Queen. </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the harder things to adapt to (outside the completely altered touch needed on a different instrument) is the lack of 'written music'. Yes, there is a part - but it is mostly just a </span><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP91892-Score.pdf">bass line</a></span><span style="font-size: large;">. It takes a lot of familiarity with everyone's part to improv stuff with confidence.</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Hence the listening - I hope to steal ideas as deftly as possible. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">My solo recital is in February - and then sweet freedom (until the next thing pops up). Actually, I think I start Handel's Messiah in March, so I guess I don't get much of a break after all . . . sigh.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">*<span style="font-family: Arial;">and I must say, being a grad student is way better the 2nd time around. Now we have streaming music, online books, online EVERYTHING . . . </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It's amazing when pianists have amassed experience in a specific area, such as instrumental collaborative piano - and then specialized even more with a specific instrument*, such as say, the saxophone. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I found a few pianists who happened to perform saxophone rep as their specialty! Take a look at the rep lists of these NASA (North American Saxophone Alliance) <a href="http://nasaconference.com/pianists/">Collaborative pianists</a>: <a href="http://nasaconference.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/casey-dierlam.pdf">Casey Dierlam</a>, <a href="http://nasaconference.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Ieng-Ieng-lam.pdf">Leng-leng Lam</a> and <a href="http://nasaconference.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/liz-ames.pdf">Liz Ames</a>. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Think about creating your own niche, and check out local and international conferences for opportunities to use your repertoire strengths.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">*Often the result of the pianist dating/marrying said instrument player.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
