2 PROGRAM Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat Major, Op. 19 Ludwig van Beethoven ( ) Allegro con brio Adagio Rondo, Molto allegro Jessica Tong 17 piano INTERMISSION Presentation of Dartmouth Symphony Awards for Service and Achievement La Mer Claude Debussy ( ) De l aube à midi sur la mer (From dawn to noon on the sea) Jeux de vagues (Play of the waves) Dialogue du vent et de la mer (Dialogue of the wind and the sea) Boléro Maurice Ravel ( ) PROGRAM NOTES Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat Major, Op. 19 (1795) Ludwig van Beethoven ( ) In 1795, a young Beethoven was enjoying widespread fame for his dexterity at the keyboard, but even in Bonn, the city of his birth, few could predict that from this young virtuoso s pen would soon flow the trajectory of Western music. In this early stage of Beethoven s compositional career, he mainly wrote pieces for his own solo performances, tailored to display his talents at the piano. His B-flat Piano Concerto is one such work. Here is Beethoven at his most charming, equally confident in the agility of his fingers and the sharpness of his wit. But even in this youthful showpiece we hear hints of the texture of his later masterworks; with an occasional harmonic wink he assures us that he is something more than just another Mozart. With a brisk orchestral introduction to the opening Allegro con brio, the strings establish a jaunty, soldierly mood through sharply dotted rhythms, interspersed with passages of legato lyricism. In Classical fashion, the soloist enters with an original theme that resembles, but does not restate, the introductory material. Playfully extroverted at first, the piano soon assumes a more reflective role, favoring the lyrical even through the traditionally stormy development section. In the recapitulation, a touching passage in distant G-flat major offers a contemplative diversion, the start of a long crescendo towards the triumphant orchestral tutti. The final piano cadenza demonstrates Beethoven s early mastery of the balance between compositional substance and virtuosic indulgence: After a glance backward to antique counterpoint, and
3 PROGRAM NOTES CONTINUED then forward, almost to later Romanticism, the Allegro culminates in a dazzling scalar flourish. From the remarkable first entrance of the piano to its delicately whispered final bars, the Adagio that follows is a work of beauty. The occasional naiveté of the first movement here dissolves in melodies that speak with maturity beyond the composer s twenty-five years. The finale is an exuberant Molto allegro rondo, driven by an infectious rhythm peppered with playfully displaced accents. Delighting in this impish metrical misdirection, the piano reassumes the image of youth, radiating vigor, whimsy and a touch of bravado. La Mer (1905) Claude Debussy ( ) Childhood summers spent on the seaside at Cannes; dreams of becoming a sailor; the maritime landscapes of J.M.W. Turner; stylized seafoam in the woodcuts of Hokusai. These distant memories and exotic illustrations formed Claude Debussy s conception of the sea better than any physical entity could to him, they were worth more than reality. It is fitting then, that when Debussy seemed to turn seaward to find inspiration for La Mer (subtitled Three Symphonic Sketches ), he was really turning inward, and in doing so not only arrived at his greatest orchestral achievement but also inaugurated a radical new compositional approach to the subject of nature. The first sketch, From Dawn To Noon On The Sea, is a masterpiece of suggestion and evocation. With only the briefest musical motifs and a dedication to the subtlest shades of orchestral timbre, Debussy hints at the sun s passage reflected in the waves. Cellos and basses open the work with murky impressions, faint silhouettes squinted at through crepuscular mist. Gradually the woodwinds awaken with new themes; the scene springs to life. A pentatonic flavor reminiscent of Eastern music pervades this material; Debussy always found great inspiration from Asian arts, even selecting Hokusai s Great Wave off Kanagawa to decorate this score s front cover. With a noble brass chorale, the first movement ends in a meditation on the glory of the sun at its apex. The second sketch, the scherzo-like Play of the Waves, evokes the whimsical unpredictability of the surf as competing rhythms dance and collide. The third sketch, Dialogue of the Wind and Sea, features the resurgence of thematic material from the first part in an increasingly urgent interchange between the two titular elements, finishing with another sunny revelation. Continually evocative, La Mer never resorts to literal programmatic material, nor to overt naturalism. Instead Debussy explores the psychology of our relationship with the sea, its impalpable hues seen through the battered glass of memory, the way its swaying rhythm remains beneath our feet long after stepping onto shore. Boléro (1928) Maurice Ravel ( ) What became Ravel s best-known work of orchestral music began with a commission from Ballets Russes dancer Ida Rubinstein, who requested an orchestration of Albéniz s Iberia for a new ballet. Faced with copyright restrictions, Ravel instead decided to write an original work, but retained the Spanish spirit of Rubinstein s commission by drawing inspiration from the slow triple-meter folk dance called the bolero. Bronislava Nijinksa, the sister of Vaslav Nijinsky (of Rite of Spring fame) choreographed the 1928 premiere. Set in in a smoky Andalusian café, the original staging tells the story of a beautiful Gypsy woman who, dancing on a tabletop, gradually seduces her audience into a frenzy. But even when performed as a stand-alone concert work, Boléro s suggestive ostinato never fails to hypnotize.
4 PROGRAM NOTES CONTINUED I have done exactly what I have set out to do, and it is for listeners to take it or leave it, was Ravel s blunt disclaimer regarding the piece. He deemed it orchestral texture without music; one long, very gradual crescendo, but the straightforward structure of Boléro provides the foundation for a remarkable experiment in timbre, a colorful showcase of Ravel s mastery of the orchestral palette. Barely audible, the snare drum begins the dance, tapping out the two-bar bolero rhythm, a ceaseless beat that propels the piece to the final measure. Above the subtle pizzicato pulse of violas and cellos, a solo flute enters with a simple melodic thread of C-major diatonicism; an ingenuous clarinet echoes the sentiment. Still grounded in C by the bass line, the bassoon offers a sinuous minor-mode response, made somewhat jazzier by an E-flat clarinet. With only these two melodies, in a repeated AABB structure, Ravel s fifteen-minute crescendo features no melodic or harmonic development whatsoever, only the careful variation of instrumental color. As more instruments join the mesmerizing rhythms of the snare drum and lower strings, the two themes gain power and timbral complexity. Saxophone solos lead into a passage of orchestral brilliance: Above celesta and horn playing the primary melody in C, two piccolos provide a glimmering polish one in G major, the other in E. Finally, the piccolo trumpet announces the triumphant fortissimo culmination of the crescendo, but a sudden jolt into E major goes beyond the breaking point, and the dance crashes down amid clattering cymbals and smeary trombones. Program Notes by Grant Cook 19 SENIOR RECOGNITION Elaine Chiu viola came to Dartmouth from Singapore, and has enjoyed spending Monday and Thursday evenings with the DSO since her freshman fall. Majoring in government and minoring in computer science and German, her highlights of Dartmouth include the friendships she has made, growing in her faith, studying abroad in Berlin and studying viola with Marcia Cassidy, to whom she is particularly grateful for the innumerable musical and non-musical life lessons. Post-graduation she is looking forward to moving to Texas, marrying her best friend James, and exploring creative pursuits. Kayvon Coffey violin is a senior from Denver, CO, and is earning a degree in economics and psychology. He has been a member of the DSO for the past four years and continues to be grateful for the musical experience and community the ensemble has brought. Moving to New York after graduation for work, he intends to continue playing in chamber and orchestral ensembles. Ruth Heindel cello is graduating with a PhD in earth sciences; her research focuses on soils in the polar regions. She has played in the DSO for five years and has greatly appreciated the opportunity to make music at such a high level. She would like to thank Marcia, Paul and David for their musical friendship, evenings of sight-reading, and countless rides to rehearsals. Next year Heindel will be a post-doctoral researcher at University of Colorado Boulder, where she hopes to continue playing her cello.
5 SENIOR RECOGNITION CONTINUED David Horak violin, celeste, and piano, from Norwich, VT, has immensely enjoyed his four years in the DSO. He is grateful to Mr. Ciabatti and Mr. Princiotti for the opportunity to play under their exceptional musical leadership. This summer, Horak will participate in the National Youth Orchestra s tour to Latin America. In the fall, he will begin violin studies with Ben Sayevich at the International Center for Music at Park University. He would like to thank the DSO members for their enthusiasm and friendship especially Prajan Divakar for his mentorship, introducing him to the recordings of long-forgotten violinists, and teaching him about IS and SP. Ellen Kim violin is originally from Plano, TX, and will be graduating with a BE in bioengineering along with four years of treasured memories from her time in the DSO. Outside of orchestra, she enjoys hiking, reading and dreaming. This fall, she will begin a masters in immunology at the University of Oxford. Kim would like to thank all of her musical teachers and mentors who have shared their expertise and have inspired her, particularly Miki-Sophia Cloud, Mr. Ciabatti and Heidi Itashiki, who first helped her find her voice on the violin. Orestis Lykouropoulos violin began studying violin at the age of six in Athens, Greece. He is pursuing a computer science and music double major, with an honors thesis in composition. He has been a violinist with the Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra since freshman year, serving as assistant concertmaster since junior year, as well as playing the Sibelius Violin Concerto as the winter term soloist. In addition to his academic and musical pursuits, he is very active in the Dartmouth Entrepreneurial Network. After graduation, he will join Amazon as a software engineer, but plans to continue writing and performing music. Christopher Park violin has been playing with the DSO since freshman year. He is graduating with a degree in computer science modified with biology and will attend Icahn School of Medicine at Mt. Sinai the following year. Park is grateful for having the chance to perform an extremely diverse musical repertoire and has enjoyed making music with his friends and colleagues these past four years. He considers the orchestra s tour of Eastern Europe one of his defining experiences at Dartmouth, and hopes to continue to make music in New York and beyond. Molly Ryan violin first began studying the violin at age four in Flagstaff, AZ. She has played with the DSO since her freshman fall, where she made many of her best friends, and served as a DSO manager since sophomore spring. At Dartmouth, she is pursuing a double major in geography and environmental studies. Over the past four years, she has also been involved in the Dartmouth Sustainability Office, the First Year Trips Program and the Dartmouth Outing Club. She would like to thank her family and friends for their support, and especially her mom for providing her with inspiration and a lifelong duet partner. Josh Warzecha clarinet is a double major in Arabic and linguistics modified with Hebrew. He has played in both the DSO and the DCWE since his freshman fall and has appreciated the numerous opportunities to continue his musical education at Dartmouth. He will spend the next year in Israel working as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant at Tel Hai College while continuing to study Arabic and Hebrew.
6 ABOUT THE ARTISTS Filippo Ciabatti conductor, a native of Florence, Italy, is completing his second year conducting the Dartmouth Symphony. Appointed as Interim Director in 2015, he was named Music Director of the Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra in 2016 after an international search. In 2016 Ciabatti also conducted Puccini s Tosca at Opera North (NH), directed by Russell Treyz, and Britten s Midsummer Night s Dream at the Lyric Theatre at Illinois, directed by Christopher Gillett. In May 2015, he made his South American debut conducting the Universidad Central Symphony Orchestra in Bogota, Colombia, where he also taught masterclasses in orchestra and Italian opera. With La Nuova Aurora Opera, he conducted full productions of Handel s Rodrigo (2015) and Purcell s King Arthur (2016). In , Ciabatti will conduct Madama Butterfly at Opera North (NH), and Hansel and Gretel and Don Giovanni (directed by Nathan Gunn) at the Lyric Theatre at Illinois. Ciabatti has appeared as guest conductor with many orchestras including the Lamont Symphony Orchestra, Sangamon Valley Symphony Orchestra, East Central Illinois Youth Orchestra, University of Illinois Symphony Orchestra and Truman State Symphony Orchestra. He also served as Choirmaster of Emmanuel Episcopal Church (Champaign, IL). As a pianist and coach in Italy, Ciabatti worked for the Cherubini Conservatory, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and Florence Opera Academy, and performed with singers such as Adriana Marfisi and Silvia Bossa.
