Music at Emory Announces 2001-02 Season

Music at Emory will present an array of international artists during the upcoming 2001-02 season. Concerts will range from some of classical music’s brightest stars to an eclectic offering of world music masters from India, Egypt and Japan, plus dozens of free concerts from student and professional performers. Among this year’s highlights will be a jazz tribute to Miles Davis by Herbie Hancock, a series featuring the complete cycle of Beethoven’s 32 piano sonatas, and a percussionist who uses kitchen objects as musical instruments.

Tickets to individual concerts go on sale at 11 a.m. Monday, Aug. 27. Full subscriptions and "pick four" packages are on sale now for the Flora Glenn Candler Series of marquee classical artists. For more information, call the Arts at Emory box office at 404-727-5050 or e-mail boxoffice@emory.edu.

Once again, the Flora Glenn Candler Series will bring some of the most sought-after classical music artists to Atlanta, including soprano Renée Fleming and pianist Arcadi Volodos.

• Takács String Quartet (Sept. 29) will be joined by former U.S. poet laureate Robert Pinsky in a program called "All the World for Love" that combines the music of Barber (Adagio), Britten and Janácek with the poetry of Yeats, Frost, Dickinson and others.

• Volodos (Oct. 17) has been hailed as one of the world’s leading pianists, an artist who couples extraordinary technique with imagination and passion.

• The 24-member Netherlands Chamber Choir (Nov. 17), whose members are all soloists in their own right, will present works by Bach, Pärt, Rachmaninov and others that showcase the diverse repertoire for a cappella choir.

• In a world where conductors are stars, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra (Jan. 24) stands out for performing without a conductor. The ensemble is far from a novelty, however. Named 1998 ensemble of the year by Musical America magazine, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra ranks among the most respected groups in the world. The group’s Emory debut will feature Mozart’s Violin Concerto in G Major, Dvorák’s "String Serenade" and Wolf’s "Italian Serenade."

• Renée Fleming (Feb. 11) is the latest in a long line of great singers to visit Emory. The American soprano currently is one of the world’s reigning divas both on stage and on disk. She has been acclaimed by critics as the leading soprano of her generation.

• Academy of Ancient Music (March 5), with founder and conductor Christopher Hogwood at the helm, will present an all-Mozart program. Robert Levin will play the fortepiano, the forerunner of the modern piano, in a program that includes the Piano Concerto No. 1 in C Major and improvisations in the style of Mozart based on themes from the audience.

Another highlight of the Music at Emory 2001-02 season is the presentation of the entire cycle of Beethoven’s 32 piano sonatas in eight recitals by noted pianists from around the world. "Ludwig van Beethoven: The Complete Sonatas for Piano" will feature eight pianists, each performing four sonatas, between Oct. 5 and April 19. Tickets are $15 each or $90 for the entire cycle. Sponsored by the Emory Chamber Music Society of Atlanta and the Steinway Piano Galleries, the performances will be recorded for future broadcast on WABE.

The Universal Waves and NextFest series will bring a diverse offering of artists. NextFest will feature:

• Yoshio Kurahashi (Oct. 27) performing on the shakuhachi, an end-blown Japanese bamboo flute that has been used for centuries as a musical instrument and tool for meditation.

• Mezzo soprano Virginia Dupuy (Jan. 19) will perform Messiaen’s "Harawi," a Peruvian re-telling of the Tristan and Isolde legend. Dupuy will be accompanied by pianist Shields-Collins Bray.

• Percussionist Peggy Benkeser (Feb. 16) will present a one-woman show, "Kitchen Chaos: One Drummer’s Evolution From Pots and Pans to Percussion," featuring six world premieres of works written for her by leading composers, including Steven Mackey, Pauline Oliveros and Alvin Singleton.

• Paul Dresher Ensemble (March 23) is dedicated to chamber works by contemporary composers. The Emory performance will feature renowned composer and musician Terry Riley as piano soloist in a concerto he composed specifically for himself and the ensemble.

The Universal Waves series will feature:

• Prema Bhat (Sept. 15), Carnatic vocalist from Puttur in Southern India. Bhat, a member of the Emory music faculty, has studied with noted artists K. Narayana Bhat, M. Srinath Marate and Neela Ramgopal.

• Hamza El Din (Sept. 22) will perform on the oud, an Arabian short-necked lute, and the tar, an ancient single-skinned frame drum of the upper Nile region. El Din combines the subtleties of Arabic music with the indigenous music of his native Nubia that has garnered fans worldwide.

• N. Ravikiran (Oct. 20) will perform the chitravina, a 21-stringed slide instrument. He made headlines at age two as the "world’s youngest performing prodigy," and today is rated among the great instrumentalists and composers for his Carnatic and crossover/fusion works.

• Vijay Arun (Feb. 23) plays Carnatic music on the electric guitar. An Atlanta resident, Arun is a native of Madras who has given performances in several Indian cities in the last decade. He studies with Umayalpuram K. Sivaraman and P.S. Narayanaswamy.

• N. Ramini (March 3) is the most renowned flutist of India, and has performed worldwide as a soloist and in duets with artists such as Ravi Shankar, flutist Hariprasad Chaurasia and many Western classical artists.

Organ aficionados will be treated to four free concerts through the University Organist Series. Emory’s university organist, Timothy Albrecht, will perform an all-Bach program (Sept. 9), then will be joined by harpist Elisabeth Remy for "The King of Instruments Meets the Instrument of Angels" (May 11). In between are recitals by featured guest organists Arno Hartmann (Nov. 4) and Raina Wood (Feb. 17).

Three special events round out the Music at Emory 2001-02 season:

• "Directions in Music: 75th Birthday Celebration of Miles Davis and John Coltrane" (Oct. 28) features jazz greats Herbie Hancock, Roy Hargrove and Michael Brecker in tribute to the late jazz legends.

• Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols (Dec. 7-8), an Atlanta Christmas tradition since 1935, the presentation is patterned after the 12th-century Christmas service at King’s College Chapel in Cambridge, England. The service combines scripture lessons read in conjunction with international carols.

• HARMONY Atlanta’s International Youth Chorus will present concerts Nov. 18 and March 24 featuring young singers from across the metro area.

Dozens of free concerts by faculty and student artists complement the season schedule. In fact, 44 of the 87 concerts in the season are free to the general public (some require reservations).
