Program Notes Anton Reicha (1770-1836) Wind Quintet Op. 88 No. 1 (1811)

Michael-Thomas Foumai (1987)

Program notes by: Hayden Hawkins

Flash Fiction (2013)

A contemporary and friend of Beethoven, a teacher to Liszt, Berlioz, and Franck, and a musical revolutionary are just a few of the many ways to describe Anton Reicha. The Czech/French composer is most well-known for his 24 wind quintets, a series of pieces written in direct defiance of the popularity of chamber string music at the time. These works would help to legitimize and popularize the wind quintet as an ensemble and demonstrate Reicha’s early mastery of the unique textures afforded by such a grouping.

Program notes by: Michael-Thomas Foumai

The first of many quintets Reicha would write is in E minor, beginning with a slow opening that breaks out into a rapid allegro, an impressive display of the wind quintet’s agility. The music slows down in the following movement, but features some degree of rhythmic complexity, nonetheless. The third movement, menuetto, is a faster dance broken up by small interludes that give the music (and the performers) room to breathe. Not to be outdone by the opening, the last movement keeps the momentum going all the way through to the end, having transitioned now to E major.

Flash Fiction derives its title from the art of the short story and is a set of seven musical stories inspired by popular culture and literature. Each movement is titled to parody several fictional stories from comics, television, novels, short stories, cartoons, and cinema, offering a flash or snapshots of their iconic characters and plots. Jointly commissioned by the Michigan Music Teachers Association and Music Teachers National Association, the work premiered with the Western Wind Quintet at the 100th MMTA anniversary conference at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo on October 13, 2013. The 15-minute work was subsequently awarded the 2013 MTNA Distinguished Composer of the Year Award. 1. 221B, the famous door number of Sherlock Holmes. 2. Modus Operandi, an homage to detective soliloquies of Dick Tracey and Columbo. 3. Whodunit, a nod to the plots of Agatha Christie’s Poirot mysteries. 4. The Outer Zone, a combination of The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone. 808.489.5038 · ChamberMusicHawaii.org | 3

Continued from Foumai.

5. Trouble with mice...from Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men. 6. Fantastic Five, after Marvel’s Fantastic Four comics 7. Stirred, not shaken, a homage to the spy-chasing sequences in Ian Fleming’s 007 novels (often quoted as “Shaken, not stirred”).

Paquito D’Rivera (1948-present) Aires Tropicales (1994) Program notes by: Hayden Hawkins

Apart from his countless Latin Grammy wins as a performer over the past 4 decades, Cubanborn jazz musician Paquito D’Rivera is an accomplished composer of chamber and orchestral works, boasting a unique repertoire that fuses classical elements with the style and rhythm of Afro-Cuban jazz.

Continued from D’Rivera.

Originally commissioned by the Aspen Wind Quintet, D’Rivera’s Aires Tropicales features seven brilliant movements that bring the listener along for a night of Latin dance and jazz. The short opening Alborada (Dawn) transitions almost directly into Son, an impassioned movement featuring a Latin ostinato. Habañera (Cuban dance) is a unique Ravel-esque trio, followed by another dance, Vals Venezolano (Venezuelan Waltz). Dizzyness is a lovely tribute to the Jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie, most notably making use of material from Gillespie’s A Night in Tunisia. The dancing continues with Contradanza, a movement honoring the Cuban pianist/ composer Ernesto Lecuona, and finally, Afro, a powerful movement driven by an African ostinato interspersed with moments of rhythmic tension leading up to the finale.

Our Travels to

The Spring Wind Quintet’s recent trip to Moloka‘i brought Jon Magnussen’s Pāka‘a Lanakila!, the blending of chamber music and traditional Hawaiian storytelling spoken in ‘ōlelo with English subtitles, to over 100 community members at the beautiful St. Damien’s Church of Moloka‘i. SWQ also visited Kilohana Elementary, a Hawaiian immersion school, and performed for about 100 students in grades K-6. Thank you to our O‘ahu sponsors Marilyn Katzman, Susan Spangler, and Jackie Erickson whose support made this trip to Moloka‘i possible! Additional support from Chamber Music America, Dawn Bicoy of Bayer Hawai‘i, and Rob Stephenson of Stephenson Solutions.

St. Damien’s Church

The plane ride to Moloka‘i is not for the faint of heart! But our musicians are seasoned pros and make it look easy. Our day trip was filled with many unexpected flight delays, but somehow we persevered and still managed to make all of our service commitments. It's a labor of love and we couldn't be happier to share our music with our neighbor islands.

In this picture Scott Janusch is explaining what oboe reeds are, how they are constructed, and how they are used to produce sound on the oboe.

This is the venue where we performed Pāka‘a Lanakila with over 100 community members in attendance. We arrived at the church early and spent over an hour rehearsing and adjusting the audio levels and tinkering with the projection display to make sure we gave our concert goers the perfect experience.

Kilohana Elementary School

All of our musicians gave instrument demonstrations, in addition to performing a few pieces programmed on our recent concerts with Raiatea at Palikū and Blue Note. 808.489.5038 · ChamberMusicHawaii.org | 7
