Every work of art begins with something deeply felt: an idea worth pursuing, a question that begs exploration, a story or sound or image that asks to be brought into the world. But making the work is only part of the experience. Art also asks to be seen, heard, and shared. From the moment the semester begins, our students pour every bit of themselves into their work. Then after hours of practice, days of preparation, and months of refinement, the audience becomes a privileged participant in a powerful, shared moment. It can happen in a gallery or on a stage. Sometimes it strikes when a choir’s transcendent harmonies send shivers up your spine. Or when you lose yourself inside the details of a photograph or are transported to another time and place inside a darkened theatre. These are the moments when we stop watching and start seeing. If you have experienced moments like these, support the artists that make them possible by donating to the Dean’s Fund for Excellence. Your generosity will help to ensure students have access to meaningful on- and off-campus opportunities including artist’s residencies, masterclasses, conferences, and intensives that empower their creativity. Shape the future of the arts today. Consider a gift of any amount to the Dean’s Fund for Excellence. Thank you for joining us for the College of the Arts’ Fall Events Season. There is so much to explore. From new artistic perspectives and compelling stories to bold visions and timeless favorites. Let’s discover where this season takes us, together! Be Well, Arnold Holland, Ed.D Douglas G. Stewart, Dean of the College of the Arts

Gene a lot, both as my teacher of conducting, and as a friend.
On Gavorkna Fanfare: Gavorkna Fanfare was composed for and dedicated to Eugene Corporon and the University of Cincinnati CollegeConservatory of Music Wind Symphony. The work exploits the idea of a fanfare for full wind band, rather than the traditional brass and percussion instrumentation. The opening pyramids lead to the melodic minor third cluster heard in original and inversion simultaneously. A polychordal transition based on the upcoming “fugato” subject leads to a minimalist accompaniment to the four-part counterpoint. The opening idea returns with a coda based on the melodic minor third. Composer Jack Stamp writes, “I wish I had never named this work Gavorkna. I constantly receive calls inquiring as to the meaning of the title. It is a made-up word and a joke between Eugene Corporon and myself. Gene called me in October 1999, stating that his Cincinnati College Conservatory Wind Symphony would be performing at the College Band Directors National Association Conference in Kansas City in February. He asked me to suggest an opener. I said, “Let me write you one. If you like it, you can have it for free. If you don’t I won’t be upset.” I wrote the piece in two days. I scored it and sent it to Gene. He called and said, “You can ignore me completely, but the fugue is boring.” I said, “How can a four-part fugue be boring?” But he was right! So, on Christmas Eve, I re-wrote the fugue by ornamenting each entrance. It made the work much stronger. To date, this is my most popular work and has launched some of the earlier works as well as provided numerous commissions. I owe

On My Eyes are Full of Shadow:
“My eyes are full of shadow, and my part Of life is yesterday.” -Edith Nesbit
“I’ve always been a person prone to melancholy. My mother used to say that I had periods of sadness interrupted by periods where I was happy about being sad. As an adult, I’ve learned to be contented in these low periods, and in those moments I seek out the healing power of music and poetry. Edith Nesbit’s Age to Youth, from which this work’s title is taken, describes looking back on a moment of pain in the past and an inability—an unwillingness?—to move beyond it. Finding this poem brought me great joy in connecting to its sadness. My Eyes are Full of Shadow opens with an optimism of a new day, but as the cadences are consistently left largely unfulfilled, we realize something is amiss. Each attempted restart of the opening results in another aborted cadence, and now they are frequently interrupted by a simple, sad chaconne. Reflecting the poem’s insistence on living in the past, this interrupting chaconne grows more insistent and eventually gives way to a return to the opening, but now colored by the assertions of the chaconne.

Anahita (1910/1991) ROSHANNE ETEZADY
Roshanne Etezady is an American composer and educator. As a young musician, Roshanne studied piano and flute, and developed an interest in many different styles of music, from the musicals of Stephen Sondheim to the 1980’s power ballads and Europop of her teenage years. One fateful evening in 1986, she saw Philip Glass and his ensemble perform as the musical guests on Saturday Night Live. This event marked the beginning of her interest in contemporary classical music, as well as her interest in being a composer herself. Etezady holds academic degrees from Northwestern University and Yale University, and she has worked intensively with numerous composers, including William Bolcom, Martin Bresnick, Michael Daugherty, and Ned Rorem. She completed her doctorate at the University of Michigan in March, 2005. Since then, Etezady’s works have been commissioned by the Albany Symphony, Dartmouth Symphony, eighth blackbird, Music at the Anthology, and the PRISM Saxophone Quartet. She has been a fellow at the Aspen Music Festival, the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival and at the Atlantic Center for the Arts. Performers and ensembles including Rêlache, Amadinda Percussion Ensemble, Ensemble De Ereprijs, and the Dogs of Desire have performed Etezady’s music throughout the United States and Europe. Etezady’s music has earned recognition from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Korean Society of 21st Century Music, the Jacob K. Javits Foundation, Meet the Composer, and ASCAP. As one of the founding members of the Minimum Security Composers Collective, Etezady has helped expand the audience for new music. Through collaborative projects with performing ensembles as well as creative outreach programs, MSCC creates an open dialogue between composers, performers and audiences.
PROGRAM NOTES An active teacher, Etezady has taught at the Interlochen Arts Camp, Yale University, Saint Mary’s College, and the Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam. She has given master classes at Holy Cross College, the Juilliard School, and the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival.

On Anahita: In the Assembly Chamber of the State Capitol Building in Albany, New York, there are two murals that were completed in 1878 by the New England painter William Morris Hunt. These works are enormous—each approaching 18 feet in length—and are considered the culminating works of the artist’s career. One of these murals, The Flight of Night, depicts the Zoroastrian Goddess of the Night, Anahita, driving her chariot westward, fleeing from the rising sun. However, if you travel to Albany today, you won’t see The Flight of Night. Two years after Hunt completed the giant murals (and only one year after his death), the ceiling in the Assembly Chamber began to leak. By 1882, The Flight of Night had already been damaged, and by 1888, the vaulted ceiling in the Assembly Chamber had to be condemned. A “false” ceiling was erected, completely obscuring Hunt’s murals, and today, most of The Flight of Night has been destroyed by the elements. Only the lowest inches of the original painting are still visible. Anahita draws inspiration from photographs of Hunt’s masterpiece before its decay as well as from the Persian poem that inspired Hunt originally. The first movement, The Flight of Night, is characterized by dramatic, aggressive gestures that are meant to evoke the terrifying beauty of the goddess herself. Movement two, Night Mares, is a scherzo-like movement that refers to the three monstrous horses that pull the chariot across the sky. In the final movement, Sleep and Repose/ The Coming of Light, we hear the gentler
side of the night, with a tender lullaby that ends with trumpets heralding the dawn. What follows is the translated Persian poem that Colonel Leavitt Hunt sent to his brother, William Morris Hunt. Anahita Enthroned upon her car of light, the moon Is circling down the lofty heights of Heaven; Her well-trained courses wedge the blindest depths With fearful plunge yet heed the steady hand That guides their lonely way. So swift her course, So bright her smile, she seems on silver wings. O’er-reaching space, to glide the airy main; Behind, far-flowing, spreads her deep blue veil, Inwrought with stars that shimmer in its wave. Before the car, an owl, gloom sighted, flaps His weary way; with melancholy hoot Dispelling spectral shades that flee With bat-like rush, affrighted, back Within the blackest nooks of caverned Night. Still Hours of darkness wend around the car, By raven tresses half concealed; but one, With fairer locks, seems lingering back for Day. Yet all with even measured footsteps mark Her onward course. And floating in her train Repose lies nestled on the breast of Sleep, While soft Desires enclasp the waist of Dreams, And light-winged Fancies flit around in troops.
