Welcome to the College of the Arts fall 2023 performing and visual arts season. I am so proud of the collaborative efforts our faculty, staff, and students have undertaken to produce such a wide array of programming across four disciplines. It takes months, sometimes years, of work to create what you are about to enjoy – a commitment matched only by our collective passion for the arts.

Each year, the college presents a wide variety of programming that reflects our diverse perspectives. In Theatre, the season begins with a stage adaptation of the hauntingly emotional novel and film “Let the Right One In,” which reveals both the darkest impulses of humanity and our universal desire for connection. Acclaimed 1975 hit musical “A Chorus Line” gets a fresh update by Marty Austin Lamar and Courtney Ozovek that will immerse audiences in the audition process of a Broadway show. In the School of Music, the Fullerton Jazz Orchestra and University Symphony Orchestra perform together in the first ever “Fullerton Pops!” Also in November, Begovich Gallery explores the midcentury architecture and aesthetics of our original Visual Arts Complex in the exhibition “PAST FORWARD.” While Begovich Gallery looks back at our historical beginnings, we continue to push toward the future as the Visual Arts Modernization Project (VA MOD) rapidly transforms the campus.

Our complex’s two new buildings are fully framed, architectural details have been installed, and extensive interior renovations on two existing buildings are nearing completion. These changes bring years of dreaming and planning into sharp focus, but there is so much work yet to be done. From exterior paint to integrate our past and present buildings, to restoring the beloved “Water Wall” sculpture, to new software that will power the next generation of digital artists, there are many ways you can make a difference. Visit the VA MOD web page for more details (art.fullerton.edu/va-mod).

The ways in which our students will benefit from the modernization project are as limitless as their imaginations, and as assured as our commitment to their success. In the College of the Arts, we measure student achievement in creativity, artistic integrity, and dedication, not in data points or statistics. We know you support our students because they give to you through their artistry – it’s something you feel, something that moves you. By strengthening this powerful bond, you empower students to thrive by supporting their creative and academic success.

If you share in the belief that the arts matter, please consider a donation of any amount to the Dean’s Fund for Excellence (arts.fullerton.edu/giving).

Whether this is your first theatre production or your twenty-first concert, know that you are an appreciated member of our Titan community. Thank you for joining us today and I look forward to seeing you again soon.

Sincerely,

Arnold Holland, Ed.D Dean, College of the Arts

HUB NEW MUSIC

Hub New Music is Meg Rohrer (violin/viola), Michael Avitabile (flutes), Gleb Kanasevich (clarinets), and Jesse Christeson (cello).

Called “contemporary chamber trailblazers” by the Boston Globe, Hub New Music is a “nimble quartet of winds and strings” (NPR) forging new paths in 21st-century repertoire. The ensemble’s ambitious commissioning projects and “appealing programs” (New Yorker) celebrate the rich diversity of today’s classical music landscape.

Over the past decade, Hub New Music has grown into an international touring ensemble driven by its dedication to groundbreaking new art. Since its founding in 2013, Hub has commissioned dozens of new works for its distinct combination of flute, clarinet, violin, and cello. The group actively collaborates with today’s most celebrated composers to build a fresh and culturally relevant body of work tailor-made for Hub. Recent and upcoming performances include concerts presented by the Kennedy Center, Seattle Symphony, Morgan Library, Suntory Hall (Tokyo), the Williams Center for the Arts, Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center, King’s Place (London), Soka Performing Arts Center, Arizona Friends of Chamber Music, and the Celebrity Series of Boston. In 2023-24, the group is in residence at Indiana University, Princeton, Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and SUNY Purchase.

Hub continues its 10th Anniversary Commission Project in 2023-24 with new works by Andrew Norman, Tyshawn Sorey, Angélica Negrón, Marcos Balter, Donnacha Dennehy, Nico Muhly, and Jessica Meyer.

As part of the project, Hub also launched

a fellowship in collaboration with the Luna Lab, awarded to recent alumna Sage Shurman. The coming season also brings continued performances of Gala Flagello’s concerto The Bird-While and Carlos Simon’s Requiem for the Enslaved.

Upcoming commissions include Nina C. Young’s to hear the things we cannot see, and new works from Christopher Cerrone and Yaz Lancaster.

Hub New Music’s recordings have garnered consistent acclaim. In 2022, Hub recorded Carlos Simon’s Requiem for the Enslaved (Decca Classics), which was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition.

In 2024, Hub releases its fourth album, a distance, intertwined, with Silkroad’s Kojiro Umezaki (shakuhachi) and the AsiaAmerica New Music Institute on In a Circle Records. Hub’s debut album, Soul House, released on New Amsterdam Records, was called “ingenious and unequivocally gorgeous” (Boston Globe) and “intensely poignant.” (Textura) As educators, Hub is dedicated to empowering future generations of artists.

The ensemble was recently in residence with the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s Nancy and Barry Sanders Composer Fellowship program, working with 10 outstanding high school aged composers. In 2023/24, Hub is Ensemble-in-Residence at SUNY Purchase, and has been guests at leading institutions such as Princeton, University of Michigan, University of Texas, CCM, University of Southern California, and Indiana University.

CSUF NEW MUSIC ENSEMBLE

CSUF New Music Ensemble, under the direction of Pamela Madsen and Eric Dries focuses on the instruction in the techniques of contemporary concert music, and preparation of performances of contemporary instrumental, vocal, improvisational and electroacoustic music literature from the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries. We study and perform a wide range of repertoire from the contemporary period: from, experimental, atonal, to extended tonal, minimalism, post-minimalism, post-modernism to multi-media collaboration, film music, deep listening and improvisational forms to explore both the repertoire and performance practice in New Music.

As part of the New Music Series we work with guest composers, performers and perform with contemporary New Music Ensembles. Chosen by Los Angeles Audience Choice Award as the Best New Music Ensemble in 2022, we have worked with guest ensembles Los Angeles- based Brightwork newmusic, Stacey Fraser, HEX Vocal Ensemble, and guest artists Jean Ferrandis and Dominique Williencourt last season. This season we will work with guest artists: Hub New Music, Brightwork new music, loadbang, Nicholas Isherwood, Galan Trio, and Hex Vocal Ensemble.

ABOUT THE FACULT Y ARTIST

Eric Dries composer/arranger, director, CSUF New Music Ensemble

Eric Dries is a pianist, improviser, composer and educator who explores the innovative fields between traditional jazz, free improvisation, and contemporary classical music. His work explores a wide range of stylistic practices from jazz and contemporary music worlds in diverse performance situations.

He is interested in expanding experimental ideas while honoring the fundamental tenets of the jazz tradition. His solo piano performances reinterpret and invigorate the tradition of jazz standards with a foundation of rhythmic experimentation and harmonic and melodic expansion. He has performed and recorded with some of the top studio and freelance musicians in southern California where he is in high demand at high profile performance venues. His early notated compositional works explore virtuosic solo instrumental experimentation and unusually orchestrated chamber ensemble combinations. His current compositional work combines the rigor of compositional technique with improvised frameworks of traditional jazz and experimentalism of new music to create systems of group dynamics that encourage performer-composer collaboration and new sonic exploration in each performance. He holds a Ph.D. in Composition and M.A. in Music Theory from University of California San Diego, where he studied with Rand Steiger, George Lewis, Anthony Davis, Roger Reynolds and Brian Ferneyhough, with post-doctoral studies and research in Music Technology at IRCAM. He studied jazz improvisation and composition with bassist Richard Davis and saxophonist Les Thimmig at University of Wisconsin Madison where he received his BM in Music Composition, studying with Stephen Dembski. He currently is a Lecturer in Music composition, theory, jazz, and music technology at California State University Fullerton School of Music. www.driesmusic.com
