Extractions: Sarah Cahill , piano The name Maurice Ravel, for many of us, conjures up elegance and refinement, a faint perfume of decadence, and decorous tributes to a bygone era. His Impressionist label elicits dreamy visions of fountains and dappled light. In the half century of musical exploration since his death we seem to have forgotten Ravel's stature as an intrepid experimentalist and nowhere was he more experimental than in Miroirs and Gaspard de la Nuit . One can see, looking backward through time, that many of the ideas audiences found so provocative in the works of Olivier Messiaen and Morton Feldman were first imagined by Maurice Ravel. Ravel was thirty when he introduced Miroirs to the Apaches, a group of avant-garde painters, writers and musicians who shared their creations at regular meetings. The composer explained that this set "marks a change in my harmonic evolution considerable enough to disconcert the musicians who have been most accustomed to my style until now." In these five pieces, Ravel placed himself in the objectifying role of the mirror and reflected his subjects obliquely. Each piece is dedicated to one of the Apaches: Night Moths to Leon-Paul Fargue;

Extractions: bstaff@uwm.edu Date: Feb. 13, 2003 MILWAUKEE - Music From Almost Yesterday presents guest pianist Sarah Cahill on Thursday, March 13 at 7:30 p.m. at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts Recital Hall, 2400 E. Kenwood Blvd. The program, "Composing Women: Ruth Crawford and Seven of Our Contemporaries," includes the complete Ruth Crawford piano preludes, as well as seven short works by contemporary woman composers commissioned by Cahill as a tribute to Crawford. Admission is $8/general and $5/students and seniors. For tickets and information, phone (414) 229-4308. Box office hours are 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and one hour before performances. San Francisco-based pianist, writer and producer Sarah Cahill specializes in new American music and music from the American experimental tradition. She is known as an advocate of contemporary composers. Although Ruth Crawford Seeger (1901-1953) has never known the popularity of her folk-singer stepson Pete, she is a seminal figure in American music and a pioneer of modern expression on this continent. Her music, influenced by the Transcendentalists, Walt Whitman and the Russian composer Scriabin, has been described as "mystical." Each of the companion pieces on the program focuses on a particular aspect of Ruth Crawford's legacy. For example, Eve Beglarian set a prophetic poem written by Crawford at the age of 13, and Pauline Oliveros composed a playful dance reminiscent of Crawford's counterpoint. Together, they form a musical portrait of Ruth Crawford Seeger.

SFPALM -- Events In honor of Women's History Month, pianist sarah cahill presents a special concert celebrating composer Ruth Crawford http://www.sfpalm.org/events/individual%20events/BAWCS.htm
Extractions: $15 general public / $10 students and SFPALM members Spend an exciting day with some of the Bay Area's finest new music composers. A panel consisting of Elinor Armer, Linda Bouchard, Gabriela Lena Frank, Amy X Neuburg, and Pamela Z will join moderator Sarah Cahill for a lively discussion of the joys and challenges of creating new music in the Bay Area, including the particular forms their work has taken and how it relates to the creation of new music around the globe. Brief, representative excerpts of each composer's work will also be performed live, allowing our audience to meet the composers on a musical basis as well. A Ruth Crawford Seeger Centennial Concert: Sarah Cahill, piano In honor of Women's History Month, pianist Sarah Cahill presents a special concert celebrating composer Ruth Crawford Seeger's centennial. Cahill will perform the composer's Nine Preludes and seven new works commissioned for the occasion by Eve Beglarian, Cindy Cox, Mary Jane Leach, Annea Lockwood, Pauline Oliveros, Maggi Payne, and Julia Wolfe. Together, these pieces (which Cahill premiered at New York's Merkin Hall in December) form a composite portrait of one of America's finest composers, and show her enduring and wide-ranging influence among composers writing today. Cahill will intersperse the pieces with commentary, and several of the composers will be on hand to add comments as well.
Extractions: Ruth Crawford and Johanna Beyer knew each other well. Crawford called Beyer "Hannah." Beyer's music clearly shows the influence of the younger Crawford who, ironically, stopped composing at the same time that Beyer began. Both were closely associated with Henry Cowell, who brought Crawford to New York, and to whom Beyer became a kind of de facto personal secretary in the late 1930s. Crawford and her husband Charles Seeger devised a theory of "dissonant counterpoint" which elegantly describes much of America's modernist music of the 1930s (Crawford's, Ruggles', a few others). Beyer, as far as we know, was the only composer to actually name a piece Dissonant Counterpoint . Both women favored clear, monothematic forms (like Crawford's towering Study in Mixed Accents , and Beyer's extraordinary solo clarinet suites). Crawford's work shines with an almost brutal formal clarity (her stepson Pete referred to her as "the most honest person he had ever met"); Beyer's music is tinged with a personal, quirky humor which we may not yet understand.

Extractions: Leo Ornstein, America's First Radical Composer-Performer, Dies at 109 Russian born composer and pianist Leo Ornstein died peacefully on Sunday, February 24 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. He was born in December of either 1892 or 1893, making him either 108 or 109 years old. A website dedicated to Ornstein, created by his son Severo and grandson David can be accessed here Ornstein was recognized as a piano prodigy at an early age. He studied at the St. Petersburg Conservatory under Alexander Glazounov but in 1906 was forced to flee with his family to America where he studied at what would one day become the Juilliard School. He started giving concerts in 1911 and within a few years achieved notoriety, not only as a gifted pianist performing works of Debussy, Ravel, Scriabin, Schoenberg, and Bartok for the first time in the U.S., but also through performances of his own radical "futurist" compositions which created a furor. A biography and analysis of his work was written by Frederick H. Martens when Ornstein was still in his twenties. He was internationally known as a virtuoso pianist, and as a composer he was ranked with Stravinsky and Schoenberg. In the mid1920s, however, at the height of a successful concert career, he abruptly ceased performing. A few years later, together with his wife Pauline Mallet-Prevost, he formed a music school in Philadelphia where he taught until retiring in the mid 1950s. After that he devoted his time entirely to composing. His final work, an 8th Piano Sonata, was composed in 1990 when he was in his late 90s, making him perhaps the oldest active composer. That work and others from his early years will be performed by Marc-Andre Hamelin on March 26 at Columbia's Miller theater.

Extractions: Lonesome Road (The Crawford Variations) is a set of variations on Ruth Crawford's harmonization of the folk song of the same name. Her arrangement was published in Carl Sandburg's The American Songbag (1927). The work is in three sections of 17 variations each. The variations in the middle section (XVIII; XXXIV) are generally longer and more developed than those in the outer sections. In many cases, corresponding variations in the three sections are related, and have similar structures (Variation I is related to XVIII, which is related to XXXV). Sections 1 and 3 are each about 20 minutes long, section 2 about 40 minutes. Lonesome Road (The Crawford Variations) was composed over the course of one year spent in Indonesia (June 1988; June 1989), where I assisted my wife Jody Diamond in her work with Indonesian experimental composers. Many of these composers' ideas somehow found their way into this work, but I can no longer remember how (except in the case of B. Subono, a Central Javanese composer after whom two of the variations were named).
