Robert Schumann (1810–1856) Humoreske Op. 20 �BIOGRAPHY One of today’s most original and compelling artists, Ilya Poletaev captured First Prize at the prestigious 2010 International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig and, as the winner, appeared in recital at the Leipzig Gewandhaus. A pianist with an inquisitive mind who explores a wide range of repertoire ranging from the 16th –21st centuries, Mr. Poletaev leads a multifaceted career as both a classically trained pianist and as a performer on early keyboards. The Philadelphia Inquirer praised his concerto debut in Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts as “an interpretation of considerable individuality,” singling out his “lively imagination” and “unfailingly gorgeous tone.” The Berkshire Eagle has said, “An expert harpsichordist, he played Bach on the piano as well as any I have heard… All that he played was deeply considered… His intelligence was luminous.” Ilya Poletaev was the First Prize winner of the XX Concorso Sala Gallo Piano Competition in Monza, Italy, where he received the Audience Prize, the Bach Prize, and the Orchestra Prize. He also captured First Prize at the 2009 Grieg International Competition and was a laureate of the 2008 National Stepping Stone Competition in Canada. He joined the Astral Artists roster as a winner of its 2009 National Auditions. As a harpsichordist, Mr. Poletaev was a top prizewinner at the 2007 Southeastern Historical Keyboard Society harpsichord competition and has been heard in such venues as Carnegie’s Weill Recital Hall, Pierpont Morgan Library, the Helicon Foundation, the Aston Magna Early Music Festival, the Amherst Early Music Festival, and Yale’s Collection of Musical Instruments. As a continuo player on both harpsichord and organ, he has performed under Masaaki Suzuki, Andrew LawrenceKing, Steven Stubbs, Nicholas McGegan, Simon Carrington, Graham O’Reilly, and Helmuth Rilling and can be heard in recordings of music ranging from Bertali to Mendelssohn. At the piano, he has performed alongside such distinguished artists as Robert Mann, Donald Weilerstein, Gary Hoffmann, Boris Berman, Paul Hersh, Susan Narucki, and Miah Persson. He has also appeared at the Moab, Caramoor, Sarasota, Norfolk, Yellow Barn, Banff, Orford, and Stratford Summer Music festivals. Mr. Poletaev gave an acclaimed performance at the Caramoor Festival with renowned mezzo-soprano Susan Graham and the Orchestra of St. Luke’s. Other performances include a tour of Romania, recitals at Italy’s Festival Lago Maggiore, the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan, and the Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome. His two-volume recording of the complete works of George Enescu for violin and piano, with violinist Axel Strauss was released on the Naxos label to major critical acclaim. Mr. Poletaev began studying in Moscow at the age of six and continued his studies in Israel until he moved to Canada at the age of 14. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Toronto where he studied with pianist Marietta Orlov and harpsichordist Colin Tilney, as well as a doctorate and a Master’s degree from Yale, where he studied with Boris Berman. Between 2005 and 2010 he served on the faculties of the Yale Institute of Sacred Music, the Yale Department of Music, and the Yale School of Music as a lecturer in Early Music. In the spring of 2011 he was appointed Assistant Professor of Piano at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University in Montréal. Ilya Poletaev is an Astral artist. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Following a New York solo recital, The New York Times wrote: “The Canadian pianist Arthur Rowe made an immediate and positive impression...before eight bars had gone by, one knew he was capable of vigor without heaviness, energy without excess of drive. It was first-rate playing: a kind of execution tinglingly alive to the shape and contribution of each phrase”. Reviewing a solo recital in London England, The London Times spoke of his “unusual clarity of articulation”, and “poetry of expression”, and David Burge, writing in The San Diego Tribune said, “Rowe is a marvelous pianist…even when he is pushed to the limit by extreme virtuosic demands...he can concentrate all of his considerable talents on vital matters of phrasing, tone and ensemble”. Arthur Rowe has been heard regularly on radio broadcasts in Canada and the United States, and has recorded with various artists for the Crystal, ebs, Innova, GM and Fanfare labels. In 2007, he released an all Schubert recording on the Centaur label (available on iTunes). Fanfare magazine’s review says, “Rowe’s reading (of the posthumous B flat Sonata) is one of the most beautiful I have heard… The D. 899 Impromptus are equally impressive…his purling right-hand runs recall Schnabel’s velvety sound…. every harmonic change is underscored by a delicate nuance of color change. This kind of expression cannot be taught; it is in the bloodstream and the soul.” A highly respected chamber musician, Mr. Rowe regularly collaborates with artists and chamber ensembles across North America. He has been a guest artist at summer festivals in Blossom, Interlochen, Niagara, Santa Fe and Seattle, as well as in France, New Zealand, and Yugoslavia. While at Indiana University, he began his long association with violinist William Preucil, Concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra, with whom he has concertized for almost four decades. In 2004 The Harrington String Quartet joined forces with Arthur Rowe and William Preucil in New York for a performance of the Chausson Concerto for Violin, Piano and String Quartet, which was reviewed by Harris Goldsmith as a “reading that rivaled the benchmark recordings by Franzescatti/Casadesus/Pascal, and Heifetz/Sanroma/New Arts”. Mr. Rowe has recently performed with the Dover Quartet and the Cecilia Quartet, both recent winners of the Banff International String Quartet competition. Upcoming performances in 2016/17 include recitals with William Preucil, Concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra, Vancouver’s Vetta Ensemble, and Toronto based Mezzosoprano Krisztina Szabo. Having previously held positions at the University of Iowa and the University of Western Ontario, Arthur Rowe resides in Victoria, where he is Professor of Piano at the University of Victoria and the Artistic Director of the Victoria Summer Music Festival. finearts.uvic.ca/music � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Our musical life is seamlessly integrated into our relationship as “brothers from other mothers” specifically regarding trust, tolerance, acceptance, whimsy, and love. To me it represents the most liberating qualities of a musical life, where study, practice, performance, and camaraderie merge. My sincere gratitude goes to Vidyasagar, Curtis, and their respective families for sharing their music at UVic in this special concert. Carnatic Music: A Very Brief Primer The cultures of the Indian subcontinent have produced not one, but two “classical” (ie: art music) traditions: Hindusthani (originating in the Northern areas) and Carnatic (developed in the Southern reaches). While both have roots reaching back several thousand years, they contain many differences owing to linguistic, political, and religious diversity. Still, the common denominator of both is a remarkable dedication to and development of raga, tala and manodharma. Raga is best understood as a particular collection of pitches, treated uniquely and arranged in a manner to create a unique impression upon the listener. Tala refers to the general rhythmic aspect of musical expression, and specifically to defined rhythmic cycles in which compositions and improvisations occur. Manodharma is improvisation, which is utilized extensively in both traditions. Carnatic music is further defined by the immense body of compositions, most of which are spiritual and/or philosophical in thematic content, that form the basis of a performance. Dr. Patrick Boyle is Associate Professor of Jazz Studies at the University of Victoria School of Music. Among his three critically acclaimed albums is Rock Music: an album of duets with percussionist Curtis Andrews. In 2009, Patrick was featured at Carnegie Hall in a concert of North Indian Classical music with Zakir Hussain, Steve Smith, and Kala Ramnath. Curtis Andrews is a Canadian-based musician with global persuasions. An awardwinning percussionist/composer, he creates music that is informed by his many years of experience with West African, South Indian and jazz traditions yet transcends most categories. Vidyasagar Vankayala hails from a family of musicians in Andhra Pradesh, India. Steeped in Carnatic music since age 6, Vidyasagar continued his vocal training for 15 years, in a very formal, rigorous and highly demanding system of learning.

His recordings include the SaxoRhapsody of Eric Coates in the Marco Polo British Light Music series. DAVID LUMSDAINE Born in Sydney on October 31, 1931, David Lumsdaine was educated at Sydney University and the Sydney Conservatorium. In 1953 he travelled to England to study with Matyas Seiber and afterwards remained in the UK working freelance as composer, conductor, teacher and music editor. Early performances which attracted attention included orchestral works and the several cantatas in which he collaborated with Peter Porter. Lumsdaine’s reputation was established with such works as Kelly Ground (1966), Flights (1967), Mandalas 1 (1967) and 2 (1969). The vivid imagery and rich harmonic vocabulary of these pieces were to become hallmarks of his style; the lucidity of the music belies its technical virtuosity. During the sixties he was immersed in British contemporary musical life; he set up The Manson Room for composers at the Royal Academy of Music, and was increasingly sought after as a composition teacher. This led to university appointments, first at Durham (where he founded and directed the Electronic Music Studio) and subsequently at King’s College, London, where he shared a post with his wife, the composer Nicola LeFanu. In 1973 Lumsdaine returned to Australia, and since then his life has been divided between the two countries, with an increasing number of performances in both. In both Australia and UK he was much in demand, too, as a director of composers’ workshops; with Don Banks, he pioneered the SPNM Composers’ Weekends in the UK, and the Young Composers’ Schools in Australia. At its heart, Lumsdaine’s music embodies his experience of the Australian landscape —the variety of its shapes, rhythms, colours and textures: the vitality of its creatures; its sudden violence; its sense of unlimited space and time. In 1993 he retired from academic life. Due to severe hearing difficulties, he gradually withdrew from the musical world and ceased composing in 1997. He moved to York (where his wife was appointed Professor of Music at York University) while still spending extended periods in Australia. AILÍS NÍ RÍAIN Born in Cork, Ailís Ní Ríain is a graduate of University College Cork, the University of York, the University of Manchester and the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester, where she became the first Junior Fellow in Education. She has attended composition masterclasses, workshops and residencies throughout Europe. In 2007, her installation Streetsong was awarded first prize at the ISCM World Music Days sound art category and EXIT won Second Prize in the Vienna Masterworks Nancy Van Der Vate International Composition Prize for Opera. Her London Purcell Room debut took place in 2007 and her Carnegie Hall debut in 2008. Her work has been commissioned and broadcast on RTE, BBC 3 and BBC 4. As a composer, she is interested in producing works which challenge, provoke and engage. She is particularly interested in cross-discipline collaboration, music in the public realm, �music-theatre, sound installation and presenting contemporary music in diverse spaces. Her works have been performed throughout Europe and in the USA by numerous performers and ensembles including Psappha, Barry Guy, Harry Sparnaay, Ensemble 10:10, Jane Chapman, Concorde, Frode Haltli, Gareth Davies, Elsbeth Moser and De Ereprijs. Recent projects include a wide variety of interests and ideas including a large-scale, year-long installation for 12 humming voices and classical harp for Clitheroe Castle in Northern England; a suite of hotel-room based mini-operas for Sawn-off Opera in collaboration with writer David Gaffney; Brief-Blue-ElectricBloom, a music-theatre piece combining sign-language interpretation, animation, poetry and live music for Abandon Normal Devices; Boy You Turn Me, a site-specific music and text installation commissioned for the 2011 Birmingham Book Festival; DOWN, a collaboration with visual artist Nicola Dale for METALCulture at Liverpool Biennial 2010 and In Sleep... for the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic’s Ensemble 10:10 with Lori Lixenberg. In 2016 Ailís will be an Associate Artist at The Atlantic Center for the Arts in USA working with Myra Melford and focusing on piano improvisation and new piano preparations. In 2015 The Royal Irish Academy of Music Percussion Ensemble commissioned Dubinina’s Tongue, a percussion quartet which was performed in Ireland and the USA. Current projects include a UK tour of Skloniste for accordion (Dermot Dunne) with film inspired by the Siege of Sarajevo. Ailís Ní Ríain is also a playwright published by Methuen Drama (Bloomsbury). MARIAN INGOLDSBY Marian Ingoldsby was born in Carrick-on-Suir, Co. Tipperary. She studied composition with Gerald Barry at University College, Cork, graduating with an MA in Composition and winning the Fleischmann Prize in 1995. She is currently a lecturer in the music department of Waterford Institute of Technology. She has been commissioned by, among others, Opera Theatre Company, which premiered her chamber opera, Hot Food with Strangers in 1991; the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland/Ulster Orchestra; Presteigne International Festival of Music and the Arts, Wales; Cork International Choral Festival; Pearls before Swine, Sweden; and the AXA Dublin International Piano Competition. Awards include the Macaulay Fellowship (1995) and in 1996, the first Elizabeth Maconchy Composition Fellowship tenable at the University of York. This enabled her to undertake a DPhil in Composition with Nicola LeFanu which she completed in 2000. ULTAN O’BRIEN Ultan O’Brien is a fiddle player and violist from County Clare, living in Dublin for the last few years. Ultan performs at home and abroad with the traditional music band, Skipper’s Alley, and contemporary folk trios Juhn Echo and Once there was a King.

I. II. III. IV. V. Dmitri Shostakovich (1906–1975) R. Murray Schafer (b. 1933) �LAFAYETTE STRING QUARTET In July 1986, four young musicians based in Detroit and just beginning their professional careers, performed together for the first time as the Lafayette String Quartet. Celebrating their 30th anniversary, the LSQ continues to flourish with its original personnel: violinists Ann Elliott-Goldschmid and Sharon Stanis, violist Joanna Hood, and cellist Pamela Highbaugh Aloni. For five years, the LSQ prospered in Detroit, where its members taught at the Center for Creative Studies/Institute of Music and Dance and Oakland University. The LSQ itself received coaching from some of the world’s most esteemed quartets— the Amadeus and the Alban Berg, and Cleveland—and from the violinist Rostislav Dubinsky, of the legendary Borodin Quartet, who served as the women’s “musical mentor” until his death in 1997. The LSQ’s extraordinary musicianship was recognized early on. Already in 1988, it was ranked among the magazine Musical America’s “Young Artists to Watch,” and in its first years they won the Grand prize at the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition and prizes at the Portsmouth (now City of London) International String Quartet Competition, and the Chicago Discovery Competition. As winners of the 1988 Cleveland String Quartet Competition, the LSQ had the opportunity to study for two years with the Cleveland Quartet at the Eastman School of Music, in Rochester, New York. Artists-in-Residence at the University of Victoria’s School of Music since 1991, their dedication and skill have played a major role in building
one of the finest music schools in Canada. In addition to quartet performances and collaborating with colleagues in the School of Music, members of the quartet teach individual lessons, coach chamber music groups, and give studio masterclasses on a weekly basis. They have been principal players of the Galiano Ensemble of Victoria since its inception and continue to serve the community promoting strings in the public schools through outreach programs and the strings mentoring course at UVic. In June, they offer Quartet Fest West, an intensive quartet seminar that brings together young musicians from all over the world. Their annual Health Awareness Forum, founded in 2006 offers timely insights from top health experts on a wide range of topics.

Journey through Shostakovich’s life as experienced through his quartets — from the innocent optimism of the first to the desolation and hopelessness of his final quartet. This cycle documents Shostakovich’s creative life and spans his compositional career from the late 1930s until his death in 1975. The Lafayette String Quartet will share its special heritage with this music as received from their mentor Rostislav Dubinsky who knew and worked closely with Shostakovich. Gain further insight into these works in pre-concert talks and lectures by visiting scholars including Michelle Assay (Université Paris-Sorbonne), David Fanning (University of Manchester), Judith Kuhn (University of WisconsinMilwaukee), and Patrick McCreless (Yale University).
