Welcome to

CADENZA Showcasing UTSA Music

FRIENDS, April is upon us, and we are enjoying the burst of energy and optimism that comes with spring! This is a busy month for the Department of Music, and we have performances to match nearly every musical interest. We begin the month with student recitals and the Tuba Studio Fiesta performance on April 2nd (look for them on the television show San Antonio Living that morning!), and we end the month with a performance by Mariachi Los Paisanos at the downtown UTSA campus, April 30th at 6:00 p.m.

We have many stories to tell you in this issue of Cadenza, including stories about several creative student projects, a profile of alumnus Adrian Kirtley, who is making an impact in the Fort Worth schools, and articles about our upcoming Institute of Music Research guest speaker, Dr. Peter Miksza, as well as other April events. Please continue to check our calendar at www.music.utsa.edu or any of our social media pages for updated event information.

The Department of Music announces with mixed feelings that four of our cherished faculty are retiring at the end of this summer: Eugene Dowdy, Matthew Dunne, Rita Linard, and Gary Mabry. While we are sad to see them go, this is a joyous occasion for them, and we look forward to celebrating their long careers at UTSA. On May 3rd, we will host our annual Extravaganza, which celebrates student scholarship recipients, outstanding alumni, and in this case, four outstanding and valuable faculty members.

Please consider joining us for this special occasion.

Dr. Peter Miksza, associate professor of music education at Indiana University, will be visiting UTSA as the Spring 2019 Don Hodges IMR Guest Lecturer. He will be giving two open lectures as well as teaching Dr. Laurie Williams’ class. On Monday, April 15th, at 7:30 pm, Dr. Miksza will speak in the Assembly Room on the 4th floor of the John Peace Library on the UTSA Main Campus. The title of this lecture will be “Self-regulated music practice: Microanalysis as a measurement technique and inspiration for pedagogical intervention.” On Tuesday, April 16th, at 11:30 am, Dr. Miksza will speak again, this time in the Arts Building Choral Hall.

This lecture’s title is “The science of music performance skill acquisition: Social and cognitive psychological perspectives.”

In addition to his duties at IU’s Jacobs School of Music, Dr. Miksza is also an affiliate member of the Indiana University Cognitive Science Program. His primary research interest lies in the investigation of social-psychological and cognitive-psychological dimensions of musical skill acquisition (e.g., practicing, expertise, musical expression, musical memory). He also conducts research on music teacher preparation and works with national data sets to address policy issues relevant to music education. His teaching duties include undergraduate and graduate courses with emphases on music teacher preparation, foundations of music pedagogy, psychological and social-psychological dimensions of music teaching and learning, measurement and evaluation, and quantitative research methods.

Dr. Miksza is the Associate Editor/Editor-Elect of the Journal of Research in Music Education and on the Advisory Committee of the Council for Research in Music Education. Prior to his appointment at IU, Peter served as band director at Pequannock Valley Middle School, assistant marching band director at Pequannock Township High School in New Jersey, and assistant professor of music education at the University of Colorado at Boulder. He received a Bachelor of Music degree from The College of New Jersey, and Master of Music Education and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from IU.

studio spotlight Our April calendar is filled to the brim with several student recitals, sometimes two a day. The composition area is contributing four senior recitals to the list of April events and contributed two to the month of March. If you attended either of the March recitals or plan to attend any during April, you will notice that the composition recitals are a little different from the others. Typically, recitals involve a student showcasing their work on their primary instrument. For composition recitals, you may see a student play one piece on their primary instrument or see them behind the podium conducting a work, but they share the stage with many more players. The program consists of original compositions played by student volunteers. These ensembles are recruited and rehearsed by the student giving the recital. The process is a largely collaborative effort.

Composition recitals are already a bit different from other senior recitals but this semester holds some particularly unique presentations. Jamail Chachere plans to present several of his jazz fusion compositions on his senior recital and feature his band, Xenobia, in what he describes as an “exciting” and “nontraditional” recital. Andi Ivins also plans to present a unique senior recital. She explains, “For my senior recital, I wrote a one-act operetta centered around London in the 1880's and New York in the 1920's that coincides with the Jack the Ripper murders.” Andi will participate in the eight-member cast and Michelle Richardson will conduct the nine-member pit ensemble.

For Andi and Jamail as well as the other students giving their senior composition recitals, the support of the composition professors is vital to the process. Wesley Taylor, who will also be giving his senior composition recital in April, explains, “The program is invaluable to young composers. When it comes to the final recital, the professors urge the students to diversify their portfolio while allowing the students to make the program their own.” Whether the recital is traditional or something more unique, each recital will consist of new music composed by each senior. The composition area hopes to see you at the senior recitals this month.

BE KIND WITH YOUR VOICE

On Tuesday, April 16th, UTSA graduate music students and faculty will join with the staff of the UT Voice Center, led by Dr. Blake Simpson, in a free lunchtime brownbag lecture in celebration of World Voice Day. The event will be held from 1:00-2:00 PM in the Assembly Room on the 4th floor of the John Peace Library on the UTSA Main Campus. World Voice Day is a worldwide celebration of the impact that healthy, expressive vocal communication has on daily living. You can read more about the international event at http://world-voice-day.org/. This year's theme is "Be kind with your voice." UTSA and UT Health's joint event will focus on different uses of the singing voice around the world. UTSA graduate student Paul Patinka will speak about vocal styles in Chinese opera, its training, and its long traditions in Chinese culture. Graduate student Amanda Ronquillo will discuss the female belt voice in Mariachi singing and how aesthetic preferences are largely based on the emotion of the text. Graduate student Jasmine Fernandez will explore the use of chant and singing in African traditional culture and how singing plays a large part in ceremonial situations in these cultures. Graduate student Rachel Stern will talk about the use of singing in South American cultures. Dr. Simpson and colleagues will present on some of the ways in which heavy metal singing can be done without vocal injury, using sound sources other than the vocal folds to produce noise/roughness components in the sound.

This event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact John Nix, Professor of Voice and Voice Pedagogy, at john.nix@utsa.edu.

MUSIC MARKETING SEMINAR CLASS 2019

HANDS ON LEARNING This semester, the students in Dr. Stan Renard's Music Marketing Seminar participated in a projectbased learning initiative building a business from the ground up from incubation to delivery. The goal of this class project was to teach the students how to create and manage a company, while gaining realworld experience and raising funds and awareness for the UTSA Music Marketing program.

The student-founded company, Mesa Mix, specializes in hand made cassette-tape-like coffee tables. The Department of Art and Art History has graciously let Dr. Renard and his students use their woodshop and has provided additional Faculty and technical support.

Eric Ryberg co-runs the woodshop with Adrei Renteria, a Senior Lecturer for the Art Department who teaches Two Dimensional Foundations, Drawing I, Basic Painting, and Figure Drawing.

Andrei received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2010 and continued on with his Masters in Painting and Drawing from UTSA. Eric, who is a graduate assistant at UTSA, is also currently working on his Masters in Sculpture. This is the first time that Eric has collaborated and assisted developing a project with another department. Last year, he assisted the Engineering Department in the woodshop, but he only supervised the team. This time around he has been getting his hands dirty with the students.

Ryberg found this project intriguing, as he felt the cassette themed coffee tables were unexpected. "The theme of the project is something that students can get excited about, and it sparks a specific interest in the department and in prospective buyers," he explained.

As for Andrei, his experience collaborating outside of his department has increased over the years. Over the past few summers, he has dedicated himself to creating murals for the Art Department and has now partnered with the San Antonio Zoo to create a mural on-site. Renteria believes that this is the start of an amazing streak of future collaborations with Dr. Stan Renard, Music marketing students, and the Music department at large. He is hoping to continue his interdisciplinary partnership with music students to assist him interpret a piece for an exhibition he plans to open later this year. Renteria believes that “it’s interesting to do something different, out of the ordinary, that expands the repetitive aspect of the wood shop."

The Mesa Mix team spent 3 hours each week building the tables.

Although the project is not overly complicated, the team ran into some troubleshooting in the beginning. Eric believes that the project could have been finished within two weeks if the group had worked on it every day.

Eric has had an excellent experience working beside our students in the Music Department. "Everyone is so eager to learn and excited to participate. I enjoy seeing the different phases of the project as well as seeing new people every week," Eric states. He would love to see more departments work together. He feels it would be good for the university and help create a campus-wide community.

Gregory Elliot, the Chair of the Art and Art History Department, is very excited to see interdepartmental participation blossom. It has been a goal of his to work alongside other departments and to encourage other departments to work together as well.

He hopes to see much more collaboration emerge in the future.

® FIESTA

A STAPLE On April 27th, 2019, the Spirit of San Antonio Marching Band will participate in San Antonio's 71st annual Fiesta® Flambeau Parade. Fiesta is one of the oldest existing signature events still held in the Alamo City with Fiesta® traditions dating back almost 130 years! This year's parade will celebrate "Reflections of Music Past" as the parade theme.

Director of Bands, Professor Ron Ellis, explains that SOSA will be using music

"I have been blown away every year that SOSA has been invited to partake in the Parade. I have never seen anything like it.

The amount of exposure the University gets in one night can be compared to five years worth of football game attendances."

- Ron Ellis

from past marching shows to fit the parade theme as homogeneously as possible. Ellis describes the parade as "One of the largest civic celebrations in the country, with parade views nearing 1.5 million people, often times most easily comparable to Mardi Gras in New Orleans." The Night Parade hosted every year has strong community ties that are recognized widely. Over 100 events take place in and around the city in the span of 17 days, with volunteers exceeding 100,000. The parade route will extend 3.5 miles through downtown San Antonio, exuding strong cultural ties to

the Alamo City. Viewers can expect to see floats decorated top to bottom, local marching bands, dance teams, equestrian teams and much more!

The Fiesta® Flambeau parade enhances celebrations for the San Antonio community and its visitors. Fiesta® Begins April 18th and concludes on April 27th with the Fiesta® Flambeau Parade. UTSA Music hopes to see you there!

ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT: ADRIAN

KIRTLEY

This month we shine our alumni spotlight on Adrian Kirtley. Adrian earned his Bachelors of Music with an Emphasis in Music Education from UTSA in 2013. While at UTSA, he served as a counselor for UTSA Choir Camp, served as an ensemble associate for the Women’s Choir under Dr. Gary Mabry, and performed as part of the chorus in The Pirates of Penzance with the UTSA Lyric Theatre when they performed the show in 2009.

Since graduation from UTSA, Adrian found success as an assistant choir director and, more recently, as the head choir director at Benbrook Middle-High School and Timber Creek High School in Fort Worth and Keller ISDs, respectively. He has helped to grow the Benbrook program to double its size and led the ensemble to UIL successes that were unprecedented for the program. Adrian has also found success with his Timber Creek High School. Under his direction, the school’s first chamber choir took home first place in the North Texas Madrigal Choir Festival.

Three sisters were auditioning for a talent show.

The youngest was shy and left the room before her audition but the two older sisters came back to the stage to sing with her. They sang Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen and harmonized together. At the time, Kirtley was working on a composition for the Taft High School choir. “Because this was around the time I was working with the sisters at Benbrook, the two projects collided and what you get in result is a piece written for two different reasons to suit two different choirs,” says Kirtley. “I'm so thrilled UTSA is performing it!”

Adrian’s passion for choral music extends beyond directing. He also composes choral works, several of which have been performed

by UTSA choirs. This month he will return to UTSA as a guest conductor for the Choral Cavalcade. He will conduct the UTSA Concert Choir for his original composition titled Indeed. The piece was inspired by an experience he had as a talent show judge.

Kirtley is grateful for the opportunity he had as an undergraduate to have his works performed at a university level. “UTSA Music is for the students and by the students and I've always been proud of that.” We celebrate all the success Adrian has found with his choirs and look forward to his guest conducting at the Choral Cavalcade on April 29th!

MARIACHI LOS PAISANOS Michael Acevedo and the UTSA Mariachi Ensemble are back! Come out and enjoy the orgullo of the UTSA Department of Music. This concert is free and open to the public at the downtown campus.

APRIL 30, 2019 AT 6:00PM BUENA VISTA THEATRE UTSA DOWNTOWN CAMPUS

This article was re-printed with the permission of its author, Kara Soria, UTSA Public Affairs Specialist II

The tradition of mariachi is thriving at UTSA, a Hispanic Serving Institution in the nation’s seventh largest city.

Los Paisanos Mariachi Ensemble rehearses and performs the festive musical repertoire of the Mexican folk mariachi tradition and have added new renditions this semester. The ensemble has invited community members to join as well.

Michael Acevedo, the ensemble’s director, said there are 22 UTSA students and five community members participating this semester. Acevedo, a McAllen native, has been arranging and composing music for more than 15 years and has performed with various mariachi groups across Texas. In addition to working with students at UTSA, he directs a mariachi program at a middle school in the Northside Independent School District. Violin, guitar, vihuela, guitarron, harp, trumpet, guitarra de golpe, and vocalists all make up the energetic sounds of UTSA’s mariachi ensemble.

Leon Camacho, a UTSA music marketing major, plays guitar and sings. The senior said he was born in Mexico and moved to the United States when he was young and performing in this ensemble helps him connect with his culture. “Many of the students in the mariachi ensemble come from a similar background as me and sharing the same experience with them makes it extra special,” explained Camacho. “I love wearing our ‘trajes’ when we perform. Not only do we get to play a piece of our culture, we get to wear it as well.”

Camacho and Stan Renard, UTSA Music Marketing Coordinator, came up with the idea to have community members get involved in the ensemble. The two worked with the ensemble’s director to get the word out on social media and through their connections in the community.

“My hope is the community members bring with them experience and knowledge about mariachi and pass it along to the students,” said Acevedo.

“My hope for the community members is that they have an outlet to perform without all the commitment of being a professional mariachi, like gigs on the weekends.” There is a fee for community members,18 years of age or older, to join the ensemble and those funds are used to keep the group running strong. The ensemble rehearses on Thursday evenings and will take the stage during a recital on Tuesday, April 30, at 6 PM in the Buena Vista Theater at the Downtown Campus.

The Ensemble currently has a crowdfunding link to receive donations to purchase new trajes.

Please visit https://fund.utsa.edu to help the students purchase new performance wardrobe.
