A Tuneful Collaborationby Will Murphy, WFIU Station Operation Director

If you were fortunate enough to be listening to WFIU on the evening of July 23rd, you experienced a rare treat. WFIU had the great honor of collaborating with the Jacobs School of Music in presenting a live broadcast of the final concert in the 2013 Summer Music Series. The performance featured Dominick DiOrio conducting the Summer Festival Chorus and Orchestra in a choral transcription of Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings and Mozart’s magnificent Mass in C minor, “the Great.” WFIU’s Music Director David Wood and the amazing Dean Emeritus of the Jacobs School, Charles H. Webb, provided some context for the Auer Hall concert (the Festival Chorus originated early in Dean Webb’s tenure, and the Mozart Mass in C minor has become something of a favored piece). During the intermission we carried an interview with Dominick DiOrio, in which he spoke of why the two works are considered masterpieces, and why he selected them for performance. The broadcast was exactly what WFIU needs to do more of: collaborate with a local group to showcase local talents. Jacobs and WFIU have a long-standing affinity, and the evening was one in which the missions of the school and the station fused perfectly. We were delighted to share with listeners the gifted performances of IU faculty and students. Not surprisingly, Auer Hall was filled to capacity for the end-of-summer performance, but for those who couldn’t make the concert, the broadcast provided a front-row seat for thousands of Hoosiers. It was a stellar evening, and we were proud to play a part in sharing it with listeners. We hope to have more live broadcasts of local performance. We are in conversation with Jacobs about two presentations scheduled for September, and are trying to work out details. On September 16th, IU will inaugurate the Webb-Ehrlich Great Organ of Alumni Hall, with performances by Janette Fishell, Colin Andrews, Davis Kazimir, Marilyn Keiser, Bruce Neswick, Charles Webb, and Christopher Young. On the afternoon of Sunday, September 22nd, Jacobs will present a special memorial event at the Musical Arts Center, honoring the life of the late cello master Janos Starker. We hope to coordinate our efforts to present these programs to our listeners. Both these presentations represent the type of programs unique to the area we serve, and highlight the commitment to quality classical music that is integral to Jacobs, WFIU, and Indiana University.

Artist of the MonthWFIU’s featured artist for the month of September is the Indiana University Philharmonic Orchestra. Comprising many of Indiana University’s top music students, the ensemble is the premier orchestra among the six major orchestras maintained by the Jacobs School of Music.

The IU Philharmonic Orchestra has served as an ambassador for the university regionally, nationally, and abroad. The ensemble makes regular appearances at the Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic in Chicago and has travelled across Indiana for IU’s Moveable

Feast of the Arts series, which is designed to showcase the university’s cultural resources to Hoosier communities and IU campuses across the state. The Jacobs ensemble has also performed at Carnegie Hall in New York and at the opening of the Bastille Opera House in Paris. On the IU campus the Philharmonic Orchestra typically performs five to six concerts throughout the academic year. The ensemble frequently collaborates with members of the Jacobs School faculty and has featured an array of guest artists and alumni, including Gary Hoffman, Sarah Kapustin, Peter Serkin, and Joshua Bell. In 1972, composer and conductor Aaron Copland led the ensemble in a concert of various works including his Symphony No. 3. In 1999 the Philharmonic was featured in the 75th Birthday Celebration for cellist and faculty member Janos Starker. The ensemble featured Starker as a soloist and was conducted by maestros Emilio W. Colón and Mstislav Rostropovich. Over the past 60 years the ensemble has appeared under the baton of Lorin

Maazel, Kurt Masur, Gerard Schwarz, Robert Shaw, Stanislaw Skrowaczewski, Leonard Bernstein and other leading conductors. Recordings of the ensemble are archived in the William and Gayle Cook Music Library and date back to 1951, when the orchestra was established under the baton of Ernst Hoffman. Currently, the ensemble shares direction among Cliff Colnot, David Effron, Arthur Fagen, Uriel Segal, and various guest conductors including the internationally renowned conductor Leonard Slatkin, who became the Arthur R. Metz Foundation Conductor at the Jacobs School in 2007. The IU Philharmonic’s first performance of the 2013–2014 Season is scheduled for Wednesday, September 11 at 8 p.m. at the Musical Arts Center on the Indiana University, Bloomington campus. Under the direction of David Effron, the concert will feature works by Debussy, Nicolai, and Brahms. WFIU will feature performances by the Indiana University Philharmonic Orchestra in our classical music programming throughout the month of September.

Featured Contemporary ComposerWFIU’s featured contemporary composer for the month of September is Grammy and Pulitzer Prize-winning composer George Crumb. Born in Charleston, West Virginia in 1929, George Crumb combines traditional American hymn and folk tune elements with pointillist techniques and delicate timbral effects to make him one of today’s most influential composers. Over the past 60 years, his works have been performed across the globe, including at numerous festivals devoted solely to his music. Crumb’s musical education includes a bachelor’s degree from Mason College and a Master’s in Music degree from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. From 1954–1955, a Fulbright Fellowship allowed him to study with Boris Blacher at the Berlin Hochschule für Musik. Thereafter he continued his studies with Ross Lee Finney at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he received a Doctorate of Music in 1959.

Many of George Crumb’s compositions include programmatic themes and elements of mysticism, which are often reflected in his visually stunning scores. Some of Crumb’s most notable compositions are part of an extended cycle of vocal works based on the poetry of Federico García Lorca. The cycle includes Night Music I (1963) for soprano, keyboard and percussion; Madrigals Books I–IV (1965-69) for soprano and a varying instrumental combination; Songs, Drones and Refrains of Death (1969) for baritone, electric instruments, and

percussion; Night of the Four Moons (1969) for alto, banjo, alto flute, amplified cello, and percussion; and Ancient Voices of Children (1970) for soprano, boy soprano, and seven instrumentalists. Crumb also draws on current events for inspiration as exemplified by his string quartet Black Angels (1970), which provides a strikingly dramatic, surreal allegory of the Vietnam War. His most recent works include Eine Kleine Mitternachtmusik for solo piano, Otherworldly Resonances for two pianos, and a four-part song cycle, American Songbook. Crumb was appointed to the music composition faculty at the University of Pennsylvania in 1965, where he remained until his retirement 30 years later. Many of his former students are some of today’s most prominent composers, including Uri Caine, Christopher Rouse, and Jennifer Higdon. Crumb’s music is published by C.F. Peters and an ongoing series of “Complete Crumb” recordings, supervised by the composer, is being issued on Bridge Records. WFIU will feature music of George Crumb in our classical music programming throughout the month of September.

After the conquest of the Americas, Spanish and Portuguese clergymen and musicians brought their polyphonic tradition to these new lands. Some of these musicians settled in Latin America and others were born in the New World. The extensive libraries of music of the great churches of Latin America also preserved a large number of manuscripts that often contained pieces that had completely disappeared from European collections. Although these musicians introduced their polyphonic skills to the New World, they were also seduced by local popular traditions, going so far as to adapt texts used in Roman Catholic liturgy to the local native languages. In recognition of National Hispanic Heritage Month, which begins September 15th, we present this recording: an exploration of sacred and secular music in the New World during the early part of the Baroque period.

September 23–29Entendre(Sono Luminus DSL-92171)duoW

Violinist Arianna Warsaw-Fan and cellist Meta Weiss, who perform as duoW, strive to bring classical music to new audiences. In their debut album the Juilliard graduates present five virtuosic works that redefine the limits of the violin and cello partnership. The ingenuity of the composers is evident in the avant-

garde techniques, and by their brilliant and often humorous allusions to the popular culture of their respective era, with references to tunes such as “Yankee Doodle,” “God Save the Queen,” “The Stars and Stripes Forever,” Handel’s ever-present G minor Passacaglia, and borrowed elements from the folk and jazz idioms. duoW reflects the vision of these composers, broadening the concept

of a duo ensemble with their breathtaking musicality, dynamic musicianship, and commitment to the future of classical music, which can be seen with this astonishing and inspiring album.

Featured Classical RecordingsSelections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming. A weekly podcast of our featured classical recordings is available through our website, wfiu.org under the “podcasts” link.

September 2–8Nine Notes that Shook the World(Sono Luminus DLS-92169)Ronn McFarlane, lutesMindy Rosenfeld, flutes, fifes, harp, and bagpipe

Lutenist Ronn McFarlane is joined by flutist Mindy Rosenfeld for this release of intimate European music from the 17th and 18th centuries. “This recording is a gathering of some of our favorites, a musical feast,” explained Rosenfeld. “A wide cross-section of styles, both ‘folk and fyne,’ evocative and expressive of the variety and intensity of human feelings, from sparky, joyful fun to deeper, meditative, inner reflection, these timeless tunes from past centuries still touch us in ways words cannot, stirring our life energy.” The Grammy-nominated McFarlane and Rosenfeld began their musical collaboration as students at the

Peabody Conservatory and continued in the acclaimed Boston Camerata, and this recording is a testament to their longstanding partnership.

September 9–15Jan Koetsier: Music for Horn(MSR Classics MS1393)James Boldin, horn

Though relatively little known in the United States, the late Dutch-born composer Jan Koetsier is well regarded throughout Europe. As a composer, he devoted much of his efforts to brass and wind instruments and seemed especially interested in developing the repertoire for unusual or under-utilized combinations of instruments. His music is often virtuosic, as in his Scherzo Brillante and Variations, but also lyrical, as in his Romanza and the second movement of his Sonata for Horn and Harp. Whether serious or humorous, Koetsier’s compositions are well crafted, enjoyable to perform, and engaging to hear. Horn player James Boldin recorded this overlooked music to encourage other performers to program it, thereby bringing it to a wider audience.

Jazz NotesIt’s a long way from May to September, as the song says, but it sure doesn’t feel that way. As we contemplate the suddenly-vanished specter of summer, here’s a look at some of the jazz highlights coming your way this month on WFIU. This month on our weekday afternoon jazz program Just You and Me we’ll be featuring music from a newly-reissued edition of guitarist Wes Montgomery’s classic 1961 album So Much Guitar, as part of our “Jazz From Indiana” edition of the show each Thursday.

Darcy James Argue’s latest release Brooklyn Babylon, the second CD by one of the leaders in the 21st-century big band movement, will be highlighted on Mondays as part of that day’s ongoing “Modern Jazz” theme. On Wednesdays host David Brent Johnson features concert recordings by artists past and present and takes jazz requests by phone and e-mail as well. WFIU’s Friday-evening jazz and popular song lineup starts at 8 p.m. with Afterglow, continues with Dick Bishop’s Standards by Starlight at 9, Night Lights at 10, Jazz From Lincoln Center at 11, and Jazz With Bob Parlocha from midnight to 2 a.m. Afterglow takes a look at standards sung by The Beatles (September 13), centenarian Herb Jeffries (September 20) and songs for the autumn (September 27). Night Lights checks in with musicologist Phil Ford about Dig, his new book on jazz and hipness (September 27), and revisits the 1950s phenomenon of jazz concerts on college campuses (September 13). The warm days of summer may be over, but cool jazz from WFIU is here for you year round, weekdays from 3:30 to 5 p.m., Friday evenings from 8 p.m. till 2 a.m., and Saturday night into Sunday morning from midnight to 2 a.m. Stay tuned!

September 1Known Unknowns

Some things are simply unknowable, from the pain another person feels to the reasons why people commit horrible acts. In this hour, we meet people who are trying to measure and make sense of things they can’t quite grasp.

September 8Colors

To what extent is color a physical thing in the physical world, and to what extent is it created in our minds? We start with Sir Isaac Newton. Then, we meet a sea creature that sees a rainbow way beyond anything humans can experience, and we track down a woman who we’re pretty sure can see thousands more colors than the rest of us.

September 15Talking To Machines

Five intrepid kids help us test a hypothesis about a toy designed to push our buttons. Lastly, we meet a robot whose creators hope will one day have a consciousness.

Meet Jashin Lin and Claire McInernyTwo new faces will be seen in the WFIU/WTIU News Bureau this month.

It’s safe to say that Jashin Lin will be the WFIU/WTIU’s first experienced troutographer. “I’m pretty decent at filming people who are fishing for trout, for some reason,” she says. Lin’s expertise goes way beyond filming anglers. For three years she served as a videographer for the Missouri governor’s office and state departments, producing short form video stories and mini-documentaries. She also produced online content for the state’s Web site and helped manage the social media strategy. After earning a journalism degree from University of Missouri School of Journalism, Lin worked on engineering publications for the University’s School of Engineering. In 2008, she was a reporter and photographer in Beijing for the Olympic Organizing Committee as a quotes reporter and photographer liaison. Lin’s introduction to public media came through her work at KBIA, the NPR member station in Columbia, Missouri. She is joining the News Bureau as a news producer, a job that will include being the lead contributor to Indiana News Desk. She will generate story ideas; shoot, write and edit feature length stories; contribute to o ur online presence; and appear on the set from time to time with Joe Hren.

It’s no surprise that journalist Claire McInerny is enthusiastic about storytelling. She comes from a long line of writers—including her grandfather, a Notre Dame professor who wrote mystery novels.

In her new role as news producer/director for the WFIU/WTIU’s News Bureau, McInerny will assume all responsibilities associated with producing local newscasts during Morning Edition, including reporting, selecting stories and anchoring. She’ll also report across the state and produce stories for broadcast on WFIU, WTIU and on the IPBS stations. McInerny comes to WFIU/WTIU from KCUR in Kansas City, Missouri, where she helped produce a daily public affairs talk show. She recently graduated from the University of Kansas in the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications. In the News Bureau, McInerny will contribute to the newsroom’s digital presence by producing Web-only content and building out broadcast stories for our online audience. She will be a regular contributor to Indiana News Desk, producing in-depth feature stories and occasionally appearing on the set, and play a key role in our election coverage.

Change-up at All Things ConsideredWFIU’s Mark Chilla is the new host of NPR’s drive-time news program All Things Considered. Mark will continue his quizmaster duties on WFIU’s Tuesday evening show of musical fun and frustration, Ether Game. You can hear Mark hosting ATC and its companion program about business and finance, Marketplace, between 5 and 7 each weekday evening. Our thanks to Jazz Director David Brent Johnson, who has been ATC host since October. David will focus more on the music side of things, particularly his syndicated programs Night Lights and Afterglow.

The Night of the Comet by George BishopAirs: August 29 to September 27

From the author of Letter to My Daughter comes an engrossing coming-of-age tale that deftly conveys the hopes and heartaches of adolescence and the unfulfilled dreams that divide a family, played out against the backdrop of a small southern town in 1973. For his fourteenth birthday, Alan Broussard, Jr., receives a telescope from his father, a science teacher at the local high school who’s eagerly awaiting what he promises will be the astronomical event of the century: the coming of Comet Kohoutek. For Alan Broussard, Sr.—frustrated in his job, remote from his family—the comet is a connection to his past and a bridge to his son, with whom he’s eager to share his love for the stars. But the only heavenly body Junior has any interest in is his captivating new neighbor and classmate, Gabriella Martello, whose bedroom sits within view of his telescope’s lens. Meanwhile, his mother, Lydia, perceives the comet and her husband’s obsession with it as one more thing that keeps her from the bigger, brighter life she once imagined for herself far from the swampy environs of Terrebonne, Louisiana. With Kohoutek drawing ever closer, the family begins to crumble under the weight of expectations, until a startling turn of events will leave both father and son much less certain about the laws that govern their universe. Illuminating and unforgettable, The Night of the Comet is a novel about the perils of growing up, the longing for connection, and the idea that love and redemption can be found among the stars.
