SUMMARY:Grant Event - Unlocking the Secrets of Modern Classical Music - Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Mark Stevens \nPresenting District: Umatilla-Morrow \nProgram Description: Aaron Copland’s What to Listen for in Music teaches all music lovers how to enjoy music more fully. We can explore Copland’s ideas easily with students of all ages as we work with them on new repertoire. By doing this\, our teaching becomes more exciting as we involve composition\, theory\, musicianship\, audience communication\, and improved memorization in our music study! This workshop will apply Copland’s major themes of rhythm\, melody\, harmony\, and form to his own intermediate piano pieces\, as well as other music from American composers from the same time period. These concepts are easily transferred to music from any era! Finally\, we will explore his ideas about listeners and performers to make for a richer recital experience. \nAbout the Presenter: Dr. Mark Stevens enjoys a dynamic career as a solo pianist\, collaborative artist\, teacher\, and adjudicator. He is Assistant Professor of Piano and Director of Keyboard Studies at the School of Performing Arts at South Dakota State University. Dr. Stevens’ experience as a pianist ranges from traditional piano repertoire to contemporary music\, including living composers. As an advocate for 20th and 21st century music\, he performs a diverse range of repertoire\, with a special affinity for American composers. In recital\, he engages audiences through thematic programming\, juxtapositions of unique repertoire\, and colorful insights about music\, composers\, and cultural context. An active collaborative pianist\, he routinely coaches and performs with both vocalists and instrumentalists. His passion for chamber music leads him to blend chamber and solo repertoire to create concert programs of unusual variety and depth. \nAn active and passionate teacher for two decades\, Dr. Stevens has repeatedly been awarded for the quality of his instruction. \nFor access contact Sue Nelson.
