“on the Rocks” Pops seriesconcert: artie shaw orchestra

Artie Shaw was the man and theman was the music. The music wasthe clarinet and the clarinet was ArtieShaw.

Now, the Artie Shaw Orchestra will

play the Bay View Music Festival at 8p.m. on Tuesday, June 29, in HallAuditorium. Tickets are just $20.

Artie Shaw was a leading jazz clar-inetist and big band leader of the mid-20th century. His 1938 recording of“Begin the Beguine” made him a pop-ular rival to superstar clarinetistBenny Goodman. He also dabbled insymphonic music and avant-gardejazz combos. On the eve of America'sentry into World War II, Time maga-zine reported that to the Germanmasses the United States meant “sky-scrapers, Clark Gable, and ArtieShaw.”

Some 42 years after that, inDecember l983, Artie Shaw made abrief return to the bandstand, after 30years away from music, to launch hislatest (and still touring) orchestra atthe newly refurbished Glen IslandCasino in New Rochelle, N.Y. Oddlyenough, New Rochelle isn’t all that farfrom New Haven, Conn., where Shawspent his formative years and at 14began to play the saxophone soon fol-lowed by the clarinet.

Today The Artie Shaw Orchestra istouring under direction of Matt Koza,a clarinetist and saxophonist born inManhattan and raised in Brooklyn.

In 2000 Koza began playing tenorsaxophone with the Artie Shaw

Orchestra directed by Dick Johnson.During his tenure as the featured sax,the orchestra toured extensivelyworldwide, accompanying the likes ofTony Bennett, Jack Jones and BuddyDeFranco, and was featured at theNewport Jazz Festival.

Festival chamber Musicconcert: Brahms and Beyond

Wednesday, June 30, bringsBrahms to Bay View for the thirdinstallment in the summer chambermusic series.

Johannes Brahms’ “Piano Trio in Bmajor” is the centerpiece, flanked by

Samuel Barber’s“Dover Beach”and FrancisPoulenc’s “Sextetfor Winds andPiano.” The con-cert takes place at8 p.m. in HallAuditorium.

Samuel Barber(1910–1981) wasone of the greatAmerican com-posers of the20th century,p r o d u c i n gorchestral, opera,choral and pianomusic. His

“Adagio for Strings,” performed onthis program as part of the StringQuartet No. 1, Op. 11, was featured innumerous films – from “The ElephantMan” to “Lorenzo’s Oil” – and is con-sidered his most popular compositionand a masterpiece of modern classicalmusic.

A trained singer with a beautifulbaritone voice, Barber’s setting of“Dover Beach” is important in hismusical output, as it representsBarber’s first work in an extendedform for voice and ensemble – a formof which he was to become a master.

Poulenc (1899-1963) was born to a

wealthy French family, which affordedhim the private study of piano andcomposition. Initially intrigued by themusic of Debussy, Ravel, Schoenberg,Stravinsky and Bartók, he became amember of the Les Six group whichstressed lack of pretension, nostalgiaand overt sentimentalism in its music.He believed that the French, like theGermans and Russians, could “writeprofound music” but French musicwas “leavened with that lightness ofspirit without which life would beunendurable.”

He composed this Sextet in 1932,revised it in 1939 and first performedit in 1940. It is one of his most pop-ular works, and it certainly meetsPoulenc’s own standards of emotion-al depth and French wit.

Finally, the hyper-self-criticalBrahms destroyed more chambermusic than he published. Luckily, theB major piano trio, written when hewas only 21, escaped. Many yearslater, he revised and tightened it in acomposite version that preserved andenhanced the magnificent sweep andenergy of the original. The musiciansare Casey Robards on piano, WanchiHuang on violin, and CarlDonakowski on cello.
