Welcome to the Spring 2024 Performing Arts Season at Cal State Fullerton’s College of the Arts. Whether you are a first-time or long-time patron, a friend, or parent to one of our exceptional students, thank you for joining us. Your support makes all the difference to their success.

I am pleased to present another semester of programming powered by the incredible gifts of our Art, Dance, Music, and Theatre students. This spring, the School of Music starts the season with a trio of concerts February 16–18 by artists-in-residence Talich Quartet; faculty artist Damon Zick and his Quarteto Nuevo featuring fellow faculty artist Bill Cunliffe; and University Symphony Orchestra. In May, University Symphony Orchestra and Symphonic Chorus will close the concert season with a performance of Mozart’s emotionally charged “Requiem.” Begovich Gallery presents the Begovich Visual Arts Lecture Series with visiting artists’ talks throughout the semester, including multidisciplinary artist Hings Lim on February 22, whose work will also be exhibited at Grand Central Art Center. The Department of Theatre and Dance begins their season in March with “Marisol,” a darkly comedic fantasy where the title character must find hope in a post-apocalyptic Brooklyn where angels are taking up arms and coffee is extinct.

Hilarious, multiple Tony award-winning modern musical send-up “Urinetown” closes the theatre season just as CSUF’s dancers and choreographers take to the stage for “Spring Dance Theatre.”

When our students demonstrate their talents on stage and in the studio, their creative energy is undeniable, but the sacrifice and struggle it took to get there is often less perceptible. We can’t see the hours spent creating, the days of rehearsals, and the years of practice. For many students, the sparks of innovation and artistry that drove them to pursue the arts are often diminished by the high cost of an education. The Dean’s Fund for Excellence provides support for students in need through scholarships, artist residencies, and other financial assistance, ensuring them the opportunity to thrive in the arts. If you believe in their sparks of brilliance, please consider a donation of any amount to the Dean’s Fund for Excellence.

Thank you again for joining us this season and for championing the arts in higher education.

I hope to see you at one of the college’s many performances and events this spring.

Sincerely,

Arnold Holland, EdD Dean, College of the Arts

Program Notes CALLING | Paul Fowler American composer Paul Fowler describes his composition Calling as “wordless, exploring how we call to each other across distances and up close: and how the inherent overtones of our vowels and voices may also be calling us to awakenment.”

Overtone singing is an acoustical phenomenon in which the human voice manipulates the vocal tract to sound two or more pitches at one time. As the performers carefully morph from vowel to vowel, high-pitches overtones shimmer in the harmonic lattice of the concert hall. Many humans find the singing and perceiving of overtone as a highly spiritual experience. Fowler specifies the overtone pitches in his score with very detailed instructions for the vowel shape that will produce the precise pitch. Calling begins as two soloists sing out to one another from across the chorus. Their voices inspire others to join in, layering motive on motive and overtone upon overtone. The acoustic tension grows to a homophonic climax. Fowler’s Calling transcends its sound pardigm to reflect an extraordinary sense of human unity found in exploring ourselves.

VERUM CORPUS | Saunder Choi When we first met. We used no words.

Only the language of eyes.

How did you know me so quickly?

I thought you too beautiful for me, But you cooed I see you, I want, I need you are my world and that was everything...

You caressed the scars on my chest, the ones my father left Soon, I told you: how he raised his sword and plunged it into mehow he screamed “You’re no son of mine,” Hail, true body Whose pierced side Flowed with water and blood I became a swan, flew into the heavens. Dropped down and found you.

May it be for us a taste of things to come Once I was yours, I became what you willed.

You wanted a horse, I became your steed.

I shrank. I thanked. I’d plead. And thanked.

Who knew the toil this war would take?

The violence began again. An eruption. Broken plates. Bruises.

Int he trial of death, you left me.

Strangers, coming home found me Strangers sang my spirit back to me—they fed my light Hail true body, which having truly suffered Hail the body which returns to its truest state In dying, I returned. In dying, I created myself whole.

Verum Corpus is a multimovement work for chorus and string quartet by Saunder Choi, a Los Angeles-based Filipino composer. From the Composer: “Verum Corpus is a multi-movement work for choir and string quartet, and sets the text of Amir Rabiyah on the story of transofrmation, completion, and attainment of the true body. The text

Program Notes is inspired by the story of Caeneus, a mythological hero from Ovid’s Metamorphosis.

Caeneus was born as Caenis, a woman, who was abducted and raped by Poseidon.

Caenis was so distraught, she demanded to be transofrmed into a man so that she may never be wronged again. Poseidon granted this wish, and gave Caeneus impenetrable skin. He went on to become one of the fiercest warriors in this mytholoy.

In a battle with centaurs, Caeneus was struck down and crushed by tree trunks. He then transformed into a golden-winged bird and flew away.

Many of the characters experience trauma in Ovid’s Metamorphosis. Amir wanted this to be a poem that addressed that, drawing parallels to the experience of queer and transgender survivors of abuse and marginalization. More importantly, Amir wanted this to also be about how our chosen families love us, and how love can lead us to loving ourselves, and finding freedom.

While collaborating with Amir on this piece, I had asked them if they could incorporate the text of Ave Verum Corpus into the story. Given the conflict beweten the Christian religion and the LGBTQ+ perspective, I felt that weaving this traditional Eucharistic text into the story would be a poignant reclamation of the trans narrative and a recontextualization of the words “Hail, true body, whose pierced side flowed with water and blood” — offering a different commentary on these seemingly parallel narratives.”

LOVE | Michael Engelhardt Michael Engelhardt composed his effervescent work Love by setting one single word: “love.” Engelhardt’s piece reveals the many implications of the word. Love can be grounding, meditative, cathartic, hopeful, melancholic, and nostalgic. Love can fill us with joy and belonging but can also lead to feelings of separation and grieft. Engelhardt expresses all these connotations in a beautiful score steeped in jazz harmonies and rhythms. The bubbling exuberance of the opening section gives way to a quiet moment of reflection before the enthusiastic finale. Engelhardt’s setting reveals the ways love can transform us to embody gratefulness and hope. We believe the message of Engelhardt’s Love serves as the perfect postlude to Saunder Choi’s devastatingly emotional Verum Corpus.

ABOUT THE

University Singers As one of the nation’s premiere collegiate choral ensembles, Cal State Fullerton’s University Singers have epitomized excellence for more than 50 years. Under the baton of Dr. Robert Istad, the University Singers are internationally acclaimed for their exuisite musicianship and have performed with renowned orhestras in prestigiou venues at home and abroad, touring more than a dozen countries since 2007. Continuing to build upon this remarkable legacy, Istad and the University Singers regularly collaborate with professional orchestras such as the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Pacific Symphony, the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, and the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra. They have earned praise for their professionalism and expressive musicality from conductors they have worked with including Carl St.Clair, John Mauceri, John Williams, Eugene Kohn, Sir Neville Marriner, James Conlon, and Keith Lockhart.

Whether performing under the baton of John Williams or Gustavo Dudamel at the Hollywood Bowl; backing the vocals of Andrea Bocelli; or featured at Carnegie Hall, Chartres Cathedral, or Cal State Fullerton’s own Meng Concert Hall, the University Singers never fail to deliver the unmistakable sound synonymous with their reputation. In 2017, they recorded an album with Sony Classical under the baton of John Williams in a recording of music he composed for Steven Spielberg.

Also in 2017, Istad and the University Singers released a commerical recording with Yarlung Records entitled “Nostos: The Homecoming of Music”—eleven vocal works sung and recorded in one take, without sheet music or editing. Not content to merely excel in the classial realm, the University Singers have also performed with Juanes, M83, Beck, Beach House, and Sean Lennon and can be seen in the PBS production, “The Legend of Zelda; Symphony of the Goddesses.”
