Stefon HarrisFour-time Grammy nominated vibist Stefon Harris has been heralded as “one of the most important young artists in jazz” by the Los Angeles Times, and the New York Times said, “He swings; and when he plays, he makes you feel good.” His most recent album and Concord debut, Urbanus, was nominated for a Grammy and received praise from fans and critics alike. The Wall Street Journal called it “brilliant,” while People Magazine gave it 3 out of 4 stars. A recipient of Lincoln Center’s Martin E. Segal Award, Harris earned a B.M. in Classical Music and a M.M. in Jazz Performance from Manhat-tan School of Music. Harris teaches at New York University and has been Artist-in-Residence at Fontana Chamber Arts (Kalamazoo), The Lied Center (Lincoln, NE), and San Francisco Performances. He has served on the Execu-tive Board of Directors for Chamber Music America and was the first musician elected to the WBGO-FM Board of Directors. Harris tours worldwide with his band Blackout and the San Francisco Jazz Collective.

David SánchezThe Puerto Rico-born Sánchez has been hailed as “the most profound young tenor saxophon-ist working today.” World-renowned jazz critic Howard Reich saluted the young bandleader saying, “Technically, tonally and creatively, he seems to have it all. His sound is never less than plush, his pitch is unerring, and his rapid-fire playing is ravishing in its combination of speed,

accuracy and utter evenness of tone.” Such is the acclaim and respect that Grammy Award-winning Sánchez has engendered from critics, music lovers and fellow artists throughout the world as he continues to push the frontiers of mainstream jazz to incorporate a compelling and rich array of Latin and Afro-Caribbean influences, while remaining true to the tenets of the jazz genre.

Nicholas PaytonHailed as a virtuoso before he was even out of high school, Nicholas Payton’s prodigious talent has earned him praise as one of the most important artists of our time. In 1994, Nicholas Payton made his recording debut as a leader with From This Moment (Verve), where he was immediately recognized as a “young lion.” Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, into a musical family, Nicholas received his first trumpet at age four, and by the age of 12 he was a member of the All Star Brass Band that performed and toured extensively. He has toured with scores of musicians including Clark Terry, Marcus Roberts, Ray Brown, Elvin Jones, and Roy Haynes and is credited on well over 120 record-ings as a composer, arranger, special guest or sideman. As a leader, Payton has recorded eight albums under his own name, including Doc Cheatham and Nicholas Payton, a 1997 Grammy Award-winning collaboration with the legendary trumpeter. He also released Dear Louis, Nick @ Night, Gumbo Nouveau, Sonic Trance, Payton’s Place, and Into The Blue.

In May 2010 history was made in a small recording studio in Havana when three of the most brilliant young jazz artists on the planet – Stefon Harris, David Sánchez and Christian Scott – joined forces to record what would become one of the most defining new works of music to hit the streets in 2011. The result of those sessions, a stellar album titled Ninety Miles, was released in June 2011 on Concord Records and was named to year end lists of 2011 Best CDs by NPR among others. For the 2013-14 season, Grammy Award-winner Nicholas Payton has joined the band.

Silently out of the distant blue.

Wie schön bist du, How beautiful you areFreundliche Stille, himmlische Ruh!

DaeMoN irrePiT calliDUS (sung in latin)Daemon irrepit callidus, The Devil speaks expertly,Allicit cor honoribus, Tempting the honorable heart;Ponit fraudes inter laudes, cantus, saltus. He sets forth trickery amidst praise, song, and dance.Quidquid amabile Daemon dat, However appealing the Devil is,Cor Jesu minus aestimat. It is still worth less than the heart of Jesus.

Caro venatur sensibus; The Flesh is tempted by sensuality;Sensus adhaeret dapibus; Gluttony clings to our senses;Inescatur, impinguatur, dilatatur. It overgrows, it encroaches, it stretches.Quidquid amabile Daemon dat, However appealing the Devil is,Cor Jesu minus aestimat. It is still worth less than the heart of Jesus.

Adde mundorum milia, Though the Universe may conferMille millena gaudia; Thousands upon thousands of praises,Cordis aestum non explebunt, non arcebunt. They neither fulfill nor put out the desire of the heart.Quidquid amabile Daemon dat, However appealing the Devil is,Cor Jesu minus aestimat. It is still worth less than the heart of Jesus.

Nigra SUM (sung in latin) Vespers antiphonNigra sum sed formosa filia Jerusalem I am a dark-skinned but comely daughter of Jerusalem,Ideo dilexit me Rex Therefore have I pleased the Lord Et introduxit me in cubiculum suum And he has brought me into his chamberEt dixit mihi: surge amica mea et veni. And said to me: arise my love and come.Jam hiems transiit, imber abiit et recessit, For now the winter is past, the rain is over and gone,Flores apparuerunt in terra nostra, The flowers have appeared in our land,Tempus putationis advenit. Alleluia The time of pruning is come. Alleluia

off the PathAll of the works on today’s program are off the path of standard orchestral repertoire, each in a different way. Yet as a group, they render a picture of 19th-century music – a time when the full orchestra was the pinnacle of composition. This age is full of over-tures and tone poems based on literary sources, stories often known to the listener. Then there were symphonies that were the epitome of abstract thought and much drama.

john Knowles Paine – overture to Shakespeare’s As You Like ItJohn Knowles Paine stands as an American composer and somewhat pedantic teacher (and founder of the Music Department at Harvard). Before Paine, a serious American composer was a cultural oddity; after him serious composers were the source of interest and national pride (Struble: The History of American Classical Music, 33).

Paine was born and raised in Maine and then studied organ and composition in Berlin for three years. European study (in Germany in the 19th century) became common, even expected for American composers seeking both to gain credibility and to connect with the source of the tradition. On returning to America, Paine settled in the

Boston area in 1861, where he delivered talks on musical style, form, and composition as well as played several organ recitals. The recitals, talks and compositions were all well-received for years, and finally he was rewarded with a faculty appointment at Harvard. Paine taught also at Boston College and New England Conservatory.

The Overture to As You Like It reflects well the German composi-tional ideals – Mendelssohn, Haydn and even Bach serve as models. It stands with Paine’s other overtures and his Mass in D as among the most performed works, particularly favored by the Boston Sympho-ny which Paine helped form.

Dvorák – the Wood DoveDvořák’s life and career has been compared by musicologist Ray Longyear to that of Joseph Haydn: humble peasant beginnings, struggling musical apprenticeship, slow growth of an international reputation with great acclaim in later life, a deeply fervent religious faith, and growing acceptance among the mass of audience based on late works. Dvořák is one of the few 19th-century composers who not only wrote programmatic music – tone poems, operas, songs, choral works – but also had great success in the “absolute” music genres of string quartets, concertos and symphonies. He is now considered one of the most important musicians of the 19th-century if not among the forefront of Czech musicians. On hearing Dvořák’s Moravian Duets, Johannes Brahms became a champion and friend of the composer, furthering his career especially in Germany.

The tone poem The Wood Dove (Wild Dove -1898) comes at the end of Dvořák’s life, when in 1896-8 he presented himself in a new and surpris-ing guise as a composer of program music. Taking his subjects from ballads by the Czech poet K.J. Erben, he wrote the symphonic poems Vodník (‘The Water Goblin’, b195), Polednice (‘The Noon Witch’, B196), Zlatý kolovrat (‘The Golden Spinning-Wheel’, b197) and Holoubek (‘The Wild Dove’, b198). It is not as surprising as was generally supposed that Dvořák should turn to the symphonic poem at that time: the literary element in his musical language was always strong.

The story of The Wood Dove, from the poem of K.J .Erben, is a story of grief and deception. It begins with a funeral march – a young, fun-loving woman has poisoned her husband, and we are at the grave. By the grave is a tree, in which nests a wild dove. The young woman marries a young peasant, but the wild dove seems to reproach her. She is driven to despair and commits suicide.

The Vienna first performance in 1899 was conducted by none other than Gustav Mahler, who recognized the tone-poem’s forward-looking traits. This most “modern” of Dvořák’s tone poems include variation techniques and instrumental effects that are both realistic and magical.

franck – Symphony in D minorBelgian-born César Franck led a movement re-establishing French art and sensibility in a Germanic-dominated European tradition. His true influence lies in a long list of notable students, and he excelled at composition even though his appointment to the faculty of the Paris Conservatoire was in organ. Franck wrote tone poems and organ works, but it is for his Piano Quintet (1879), Violin Sonata (1886), and the sole Symphony in D minor (1886-88) that he is remembered and revered. All of his works contain a French reserve and a spirituality that promoted emulation for decades.

notes (cont)

raleigh civic symphony association

The Symphony in D, however, evokes a Germanic world dominated by Wagner, Beethoven, and even Bach. Even the D minor key evokes Beethoven 9, but the theme raises his spiritual aspects of the late music – string quartets and late piano sonatas. The common thread is the spiritual search for a meaning for life.

The Franck Symphony has been in decline in recent decades. Once a pillar of the orchestral repertoire, his sincerity has stood in sharp contrast to the irony of our age and the growing appreciation of Shostakovich, for example. But the Franck Symphony’s star is rising in recent years.

The first movement, almost 20 minutes long, known for its Wagnerian chromaticism, wriggles its way through struggles and pain to ultimate triumph, overcoming fierce adversity along the way. Also along the way also are moments of tranquility – welcome spiritual repose among the struggle.

The middle movement (there are only three!) is a spiritual respite, noted by the plaintive English-horn solo, always colored by subtle figuration by the violas and second violins. The middle section of the movement with its magical clarinet solo is a welcome respite and calm port in a storm.

The Finale stands as a model – the 19th-century expectations of representa-tion of ultimate triumph over adversity, through its D Major tonality and a triumphal ending. This has long been a model since Beethoven. The Fi-nale is also a model of the cyclical recap of adversity and triumph, revisiting themes and snippets from earlier movements. Either way, the listener feels a renewed connection with the best of the human spirit and the divine.

NCSU CENTER STAGE pRESENTS

an evening with frank vignolaFRiDAY & SATURDAY, ApRil 12 & 13, 2013 AT 8pM | TITMUS THEATRE

Frank Vignola is one of the most extraordinary guitarists performing before the public today. His stunning virtuosity has made him the guitarist of choice for many of the world’s top musicians, including Ringo Starr, Madonna, Donald Fagen, Wynton Marsalis, Tommy Emmanuel, the Boston Pops, the New York Pops, and guitar legend Les Paul, who named Vignola to his “Five Most Admired Guitar List” for the Wall Street Journal. Vignola’s jaw-dropping technique explains why the New York Times deemed him “one of the brightest… stars of the guitar.”

Born on suburban Long Island on December 30, 1965, Vignola was raised in the New York area. The Italian-American started playing the guitar at the age of six and grew up admiring a variety of guitarists. Far from a jazz snob, Vignola never listened to jazz exclusively and was also a major fan of classical, rock, R&B, and pop. The guitarists that he admires range from Django and Les Paul to rock icons like Frank Zappa and Eddie Van Halen. As a young adult, Vignola studied at the Cultural Arts Center of Long Island and went on to enjoy an enormous amount of sideman gigs in the 1980s, including recording and touring with the likes of Madonna, Leon Redbone, Ringo Starr as well as coming into his own as a leader in 1988 with his famed Hot Club of France tribute, which was hailed in the New York Times as one of the top ten acts in New York City in 1988, and forged the way for the many Django Hot Club groups that followed.

During the performance: silence your cell phone no photography no texting

thank You!

Vignola was 27 when, in 1993, he signed with Concord Jazz and recorded his first Concord session as a leader, Appel Direct. Many more Concord releases followed in the 1990s, as well as three releases for the Telarc label as co-leader of the group Travelin’ Light. The early 2000s found Vignola recording a solo guitar CD for Acoustic Disc as well as performing regularly with guitarist, Les Paul. This also marked the time that he began working with record producer Joel Dorn as well as making featured appearances on Atlantic, Sony and Warner Brothers Records with the likes of Donald Fagen, Queen Latifah, Mark O’Connor and Wynton Marsalis. Vignola also recorded a collection of Gershwin pieces for Mel Bay Records titled Vignola Plays Gershwin, which was number two in NPR radio airplay charts. In recent years, Vignola has recorded two important collaborative CDs, Just Between Frets with Tommy Emmanuel on Solid Air Records, and Frank ‘N’Dawg, Melody Monsters with mandolinist David Grisman on Acoustic Disc Records.

Frank Vignola has written 18 guitar instruction books for Mel Bay Publications and has recorded six educational DVDs for Truefire.com. He has performed hundreds of clinics and master classes at major universities and colleges throughout the world including Julliard and Boston University. Currently, Vignola is touring worldwide.

Vinny ranioloEven though his career in music is only at the beginning, Vinny Raniolo has already had many opportunities that take most players a lifetime to achieve. Raniolo has already toured 14 countries with more to come. Now playing guitar alongside many of the finest musicians in the world, he is very excited to see where his musical career will take him.

Currently, Raniolo is touring as a duo with one of the world’s finest guitarists, Frank Vignola. He also plays with many notable musicians such as Tommy Emmanuel, Bucky Pizzarelli and David Grisman, to name a few. This year a show titled Four Generations of Guitar will be aired in-ternationally on the PBS network; Raniolo is honored to be a part of this program representing the younger generation.

GREGG MUSEUM OF ART & DESiGN

HUMANATURE: photographs of the unnatural world by peter goinExHiBiTiON: JANUARY 17-ApRil 26, 2013

screening: In Search of Ritual: The Burning Man WEDNESDAY, ApRil 10, 6pM | ArtiSt’S tALK: THURSDAY, ApRil 11, 6pM

Nevada-based photographer Peter Goin once spent much of a year in North Carolina making vivid, large-format color photos that explore the quirky spaces where the fakery of the so-called “natural world” becomes painfully obvious. The inverse of landscape photographers like the famed Ansel Adams – who wouldn’t hesitate to doctor a photo in order to remove a discarded beer can, paint out a power line, or cover up graffiti in order to create the illusion that nature still includes pristine wilderness – Goin instead “goes behind the scenes” to show how nearly all the scenery we see now is really an artificial human construct. In photos that are as funny as they are disturbing, he docu-ments swamps with drain valves, “virgin” forests that come complete with posted safety instructions, fake falcon nests, manmade beaches, designer landscaping and supposedly “natural” rivers that have been carefully planned with the use of elaborate miniature models.

In fact, according to Goin, by now the whole world has become a human artifact, where we’re all living in a kind of “Truman Show” existence while fooling ourselves that we’re still surrounded by Mother Nature. Thanks to pollution, species extinction and global warming, nothing has escaped the human touch, but the increasing demands of the urban environment may keep us from facing the truth. Goin’s photos encourage lively public debate on how nature is managed and culturally received. In his current exhibition at the Gregg Museum, Humanature, he offers photographic evidence that in North Carolina and elsewhere nature has become a fiction, but one that is dramatically reinforced through environmental management.

Peter Goin’s books of landscape photographs include Black Rock, Changing Mines in America, Humanature, Nuclear Landscapes, and Stopping Time: A Rephotographic Survey of Lake Tahoe. His images have also appeared in environmental design journals such as Landscape and Space & Soci-ety, and have been exhibited at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum, the Indianapolis Museum of Art, and the National Museum of American Art, among others. They are included in more than 43 major collections ranging from the Whitney Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Meanwhile his video work is Emmy-nominated; his most recent program, on adolescence, also won Best Experimental Documentary Video at the New York International Film and Video Festival. Goin teaches in the Art Department at the University of Nevada at Reno, where he is the Foundation Professor of Photography and Videography.

On Wednesday April 10, the Gregg Museum will be screening Goin’s Emmy-nominated film, In Search of Ritual: The Burning Man, which interprets the well-known annual “alternative event” in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert. Beginning in 1986 as a simple campfire ritual, it’s become a gigantic international phenomenon. It is also, for one week each year, the third largest city in the state.

The following evening (Thursday, April 11) Goin will discuss nature, landscape, the images in Humanature and his more recent photographic work. Both presentations begin at 6pm and are free and open to the public.
