From
my early years studying
violin at the Tehran
Music Conservatory, I was
captivated by the sound
of the kamancheh, an
ancient Persian bowed
instrument considered one
of the ancestors to the
modern violin. I was
pleased when the National
Endowment for the Arts
awarded me a grant to
write a violin concerto
as it provided me with an
occasion to rekindle my
fascination with the
kamancheh. The notion of
writing a violin concerto
that would incorporate
the power and brilliance
of a modern instrument
with the delicate and
lyrical character of an
ancient one was simply
irresistible. Moreover,
the inspiration from the
kamancheh also informed
my use of Persian modes,
melodic, and rhythmic
figures. The notes of the
violins open strings (G,
D, A, E) also influenced
many of the melodic and
harmonic elements of my
violin concerto. The
opening tutti is mostly
based on intervals of a
perfect 4th and 5th. The
primary material for each
movement incorporates
notes of two of the open
strings of the violin,
creating a three-note
melodic motif as the
basis of themes: 1 st
movement: A-D-A 2nd
movement: D-G-D 3rd
movement: E-A-E The
overall structure of the
concerto is organic and
cyclical, as themes are
shared between the three
movements. For example,
the main musical idea of
the third movement is a
transformation of the
first movements primary
theme. While the
movements share similar
musical materials, each
one is defined by
distinguishing
characters. The first
movement is conflicted;
alternating between
sections of unabashed
lyricism and unforgiving
ferocity. The second
movement is haunting,
mysterious, and
expressive with long
melodic lines that vary
continuously. It moves
through different moods
and characters including
a reimagining of a
traditional Persian
wedding tune played by
the orchestra (m. 98).
The third movement is
festive in character and
features much brilliant
passagework for the solo
violin. At the climax of
this movement, themes
from the previous
movements re-emerge
simultaneously with
greater intensity,
propelling the concerto
to an energetic finale.

in 1994 and is dedicated

This
book, which includes 308
tune transcriptions, is
organized around
individual fiddlers who
typically combine
Appalachian-style
fiddling with rags, pop
standards, Midwest-style
fiddling and sometimes a
touch of Western swing to
create a style often
identifiable as Ozarks.
Thirty Ozarks fiddlers
and their lives are
highlighted with
biographical sketches,
photographs, and tune
histories. Another 50
great Ozarks fiddlers are
presented in a similar
manner but with less
detail. The book and
accompanying audio with
37 tunes, many recorded
in the field emphasize
the older fiddling
traditions connected to
the square dances and
community events more
than those connected to
bluegrass music and
modern contest fiddling.
Some of the tunes in the
collection are old
standbys such as Bile
Them Cabbage while others
such as Finley Creek
Blues are unique to the
region. The book is the
result of years of work
by two respected
researchers. Gordon
McCann won the
prestigious Missouri Arts
Award in 2002 for his
decades of work
documenting, studying,
and accompanying Ozarks
fiddle music. Drew
Beisswenger, a music
librarian at Missouri
State University with a
Ph.D. in ethnomusicology,
has published three other
works about fiddle music
and is known for his
strong transcription and
analysis skills. Includes

The
general inspiration for
the music was an idea of
Durham, garnered from two
or three short visits and
a reading of a short
history - so a sort of
Durham of the mind, a
stylized Durham; 'my'
Durham, if you will,
imagined into music.
However, the
defininginspiration for
the piece was the
Cathedral. My first visit
to Durham in 2001 saw me
standing open-mouthed on
Palace Green, and then in
silent awe as I walked
into that formidable
magnificence inside. Most
of the themes came from
the days immediately
following my first
experience of this
extraordinary, inspiring
building. The feeling
that the very stones and
pillars themselves are
imbued with centuries of
prayer, withpeople's joy,
grief, despair, even
anger; gratitude and
hope. As the tunes and
chords and sounds started
to organize themselves in
my mind and onto
manuscript paper, I
realized that I was
writing a sort of day in
the life of Durham, and
that the Cathedral
wouldbe its beginning,
would be in its middle,
and would be at its
ending. The piece
consists of six
'pictures' arranged into
three parts - the
morning, afternoon and
evening of this imaginary
Durham city. Jon Lord,
2017.

The
book is designed to make
the personal aspects of
traditional Irish fiddle
playing, improvisation
and interpretation,
accessible to novice
players. Drawing on his
experience writing out
reels, jigs and other
tunes for new players at
a North London session
and teaching fiddle, the
author conveys what to do
with tunes to make them
your own. The first part
of the book discusses
such subjects as the
language of traditional
music, posture, bowing,
and effective practice,
with a detailed analysis
of left and right hand
technique. The second
section is a selection of
tunes that demonstrate
the ideas in the first
part. The aim of the book
is to allow the player to
look more closely at
their technique while
also improving accuracy
and speed. A recording
adds an extra dimension
to the learning
experience. Includes
access to online
audio.

Number 5, 1950 was Mark
Rothko's last painting
before the breakthrough
into his mature format.
In it the luminous color
fields of a classic
Rothko are inscribed
across the middle with
three delicate lines.
Describing this painting
and its pivotal position
in Rothko's work, Brian
O'Doherty observes:
'After this, the lines
disappear completely.' In
recent years gesture and
figuration have
disappeared from my
music. What used to be
background has emerged to
become a musical world
composed entirely of
floating color fields. In
this new world I've
changed media, moving
from the orchestra to
smaller combinations of
acoustical instruments
and
electronically-processed
sounds. I still think in
orchestral terms, but
this hybrid medium allows
me to create orchestral
textures for more
practical and readily
available ensembles.
Initially I imagined this
as a kind of monolithic
music -an entire piece as
one rich and complex
sound. Then I came to
hear it as homophonic or
heterophonic. And now -
in this musical world
that I thought was
completely free of lines
- I've come to hear a
polyphony of harmonic
clouds. Maybe the lines
never disappear
completely. Maybe
Christian Wolff was right
when he quipped: 'No
matter what we do, sooner
or later it all sounds
melodic.' - John Luther
Adams.

The
original music Walk for
one dancer and violinist
was commissioned by
Compagnie Trans. The four
pieces that compose this
sonata are from the
performance piece
Laurence Marthouret
choreographed for a
dancer and a violinist,
entitled Walk, and
interpreted by Sona
Khochafian in 2001. The
project originated from a
shared conception of the
two art forms, an equal
collaboration between
choreographic and musical
composition. Its central
idea was to utilize
Laban's choreographic
notation system, which
accompanies and parallels
the musical notation,
allowing for an extreme
precision in the playing
out of the dance-music
relationship. Largely cut
and recomposed to arrive
at this concert version,
Walk-Sonata still
maintains its four
discreet parts, the four
sides of a square of the
choreographic composition
and is therefore strongly
linked to the original
choreography. This is
discernible not only in
the formal four movement
structure, but also in
the music's multiple
rhythms, dynamics and
phrasing, which are
consistently, if not
tightly, joined to the
dance gesture.
Walk-Sonata is dedicated
to Sona Khochafian and
Laurence Marthouret.
