Texu Kim (b. 1980)
PROGRAM NOTES
WINTER 2021-2022
Texu Kim wrote the following about his work Dub-Sanjo: Sanjo is a virtuosic Korean folk music tradition, aurally transmitted and involving a solo instrument accompanied by a barrel drum player. Meaning ‘scattered melodies,’ sanjo embraces various other genres and styles of Korean traditional music, especially with regard to scale and mode. A sanjo piece typically is 30 to 60 minutes long and has five to seven chapters (movements or sections), each with distinct rhythmic patterns and tempi. The slower sections come first, making the entirety gradually more ecstatic, a phenomenon akin to gut, traditional Korean shaman rites. With Dub- being a short form of Duboo (meaning ‘together’ in Korean), Dub-Sanjo is a sanjo miniature (only 8 minutes long), rearranged for orchestra. I studied and analyzed various styles of sanjo for the gayageum (a Korean plucked instrument), which originated from the very first sanjo in history. Then, from each chapter, I chose multiple melodic fragments that seemed more representative (for example, those which are common in many sanjo pieces) or that can complement the representative ones more effectively. The process of making seemingly arbitrary decisions to create your own version of sanjo is also part of this tradition and how it has been succeeded. I modified (without hurting the dignity of the traditional versions, I hope) and orchestrated these melodies so that dso.org
#IAMDSO
it could also serve as a ‘Western’ music piece. The very beginning of Dub-Sanjo utilizes sparse string pizzicato, a reflection based on gayageum sanjo. This Jinyang (slow, meaning long notes) movement builds up with presenting melodies with slightly unfamiliar inflections. The bassoon and viola section open a lighter chapter of Joongmori (moderate). The trumpet, horns, and strings, one after another, play melodies that were believed to be more ‘cosmopolitan’ in 19th century Korea. Following is a short but colorful and pleasant Joongjoongmori section (in 6/8), which ends with a melancholic violin solo. The music becomes more animated in the subsequent Jajinmori (presto) chapter. Except for a short dreamy duo by the marimba and harp, the music continues to accelerate and gain more energy, to reach the final Hwimori (whirling!) section. Dub-Sanjo is one of my ongoing attempts to ‘translate’ Korean traditional music (often that of the Southwestern part of the country) into Non-Korean (Western) music. I hope this piece reinterprets the tradition freshly by using harmony and textures (i.e., multipart counterpoint) that are not found in Korean traditional music, while delivering the sophisticated nuances and energetic virtuosity of the tradition. This performance marks the DSO premiere of Texu Kim’s Dub-Sanjo.

PROGRAM NOTES F
or a decade or two in the early part of the twentieth century, Paris became what it had not been since the Middle Ages: a school of music for all nations. During the 1920s, Paris was filled with expatriates including such Americans as Piston, Copland, and Thomson; the Czech Martinu; the Russians Prokofiev and Stravinsky; and the Spaniard Joaquín Rodrigo. Following the precedent set by his countryman Manuel de Falla, who had studied in Paris before World War I, Rodrigo went there in 1927, and spent the next five years under the tutelage of Paul Dukas. Rodrigo was born into a prosperous but not particularly musical family in Sagunto. When he was three, his sight was severely damaged by diphtheria; a year later he underwent an operation that left him entirely blind. From this point, he took solace in music, first merely as a listener, then as a self-taught pianist. His parents, aware of his budding talent, found real teachers for him, among them Eduardo López Chavarri, who instilled in Rodrigo a love of Spanish folk music, as well as giving him the rudiments of harmony and composition. In 1933, Rodrigo returned to Spain with his wife, the Turkish pianist Victoria Kamhi, whom he had met in Paris. In 1934, he was appointed to a professorship at the College for the Blind in Madrid. That same year, he won a fellowship, allowing him to return to Paris for two more years of study in which he undertook musicology with Maurice Emmanuel, and music history with André Pirro. Unable to return home due the ensuing Spanish Civil War, Rodrigo spent the next few years traveling through France, Germany, and Austria. In exile, he completed the Concierto de Aranjuez — the work that sealed his fame as the successor to Falla, and as the chief representative of Spanish music. The title, Rodrigo explained, comes from the royal palace near Madrid, a place
12
DSO PERFORMANCE MAGAZINE
where “there linger the fragrance of the magnolias, the singing of the birds and the gushing of fountains…dreams hidden beneath the foliage to the park surrounding the baroque palace.” Characteristically, he lets the guitar open the Concierto, strumming above a sustained pedal note in the double basses. Only when the soloist has established the mood, the thematic material, and the quirky rhythm, does the orchestra enter, although still very gently. Throughout the movement, Rodrigo lets the guitarist have the lead, with his orchestra seldom responding en masse, more often acting as a giant chamber music ensemble. In the slow movement, Rodrigo gives the soloist the most difficult task of all— to match a wind instrument in singing a solo line. To help the guitar sustain the melody, the composer provides lavish embellishments, but even so, there is no shirking the phrase-by-phrase comparison of English horn and guitar. Only after a written-out cadenza for the guitar does the orchestra step forward, taking over the melody that has been heard several times already, without ever growing stale. Rodrigo said that the Concierto should sound “as strong as a butterfly,” and nowhere is this commanding delicacy more evident than in the finale. As in the first movement, Rodrigo sets a theme that puzzles the ear with its rhythm; here, the ambiguity is created by a constant shift between measures of two and three beats. Again, the orchestra is treated, not as a challenger to the soloist, but like a ballerina’s cavalier, who supports her dazzling spins and leaps, always remaining discreetly in the background. —Michael Fleming The DSO most recently performed Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez for Guitar and Orchestra in November 2011, conducted by Joana Carneiro and featuring guitarist Xuefei Yang. The DSO first performed the piece in February 1966, conducted by Louis Lane and featuring guitarist Rey de la Torre.

achmaninoff was a brilliant musician who excelled in three separate careers, as a pianist, conductor, and composer. Reared in the PostRomantic Russian tradition, he emigrated from his homeland following the 1918 revolution, building an international career in Western Europe and the United States. He composed in all forms of music but is best remembered for several of his concertos and symphonic works, and his virtuoso keyboard music. Though deeply expressive and often melancholy in tone, Rachmaninoff’s music has a firm structural foundation and a keen intellectual core. Post-romanticism died hard amid the onslaught of new, sharply pungent musical styles in the early 20th century, and certain composers held steadfastly to their artistic beliefs until they ended their days, well into the century. One who did so was Richard Strauss; Sergei Rachmaninoff was another. Three years after completing the symphony, Rachmaninoff vented his feelings about modern music in a conversation with Leonard Liebling, editor of the Musical Courier. “I feel like a ghost wandering in a world grown alien,” Rachmaninoff said. “I cannot cast out the old way of writing and I cannot acquire the new. I have made intense efforts to feel the musical manner of today, but
dso.org
#IAMDSO
it will not come to me […] The new kind of music seems to come, not from the heart, but from the head. Its composers think rather than feel. They have not the capacity to make their works ‘exult’ as Hans von Bülow called it. They meditate, protest, analyze, reason, calculate, and brood—but they do not exult.” The opening movement of his Symphony No. 3 is quite classical in its large form: a brief introduction, followed by a sonata-allegro with two main themes, a development and recapitulation. The slow movement similarly begins and ends with a variant of the motto, seemingly turned into a mirror image of its first-movement profile. Following its initial statement by the horn over an accompaniment of harp chords, a solo violin takes up a sweet, sentimental theme, which is then elaborated by the orchestra. The center of the movement becomes a brisk, keen-edged scherzo, following a plan not only adopted in Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto but Tchaikovsky’s famed B-flat minor Concerto. Eventually, the slow movement resumes, ending with the aforementioned motto, again quietly plucked by the strings. The finale, the longest of the three movements, is essentially another large sonata-form movement, with a fugal development of is dance-like principal theme. However, other themes work their way into the fabric of the movement, notably the main theme of the slow movement and the motto from the opening movement in the brilliant extended coda. Whether by design or unconscious stylistic habit, Rachmaninoff also had a penchant for including snippets of the “Dies Irae” plainchant melody in his thematic materials. It is found at various places in the symphony and competes with the motto theme for a dominant place in the symphony’s climactic closing pages. —Carl R. Cunningham The DSO most recently performed Rachmaninoff’s Third Symphony in November 2011, conducted by Leonard Slatkin. The DSO first performed the piece in November 1945, conducted by Karl Krueger.

PROFILES EUN SUN KIM
F
ollowing “a company debut of astonishing vibrancy and assurance” (San Francisco Chronicle) in Rusalka, Korean conductor Eun Sun Kim has been named the Caroline H. Hume Music Director of San Francisco Opera. Her presence in North America was first established with performances of Verdi’s Requiem with the Cincinnati Symphony and La traviata with Houston Grand Opera, with the latter earning her an appointment as the company’s first Principal Guest Conductor in twenty-five years. The 2021-22 season opens Kim’s inaugural term at San Francisco Opera, where she will lead Tosca and a new production of Fidelio, in addition to three concerts. She continues a series of important operatic debuts at Wiener Staatsoper and the Metropolitan Opera with La bohème, and at Lyric Opera of Chicago with Tosca, before returning to Houston Grand Opera for a new production of Turandot. She is slated to conduct symphony orchestras around the globe, including concerts in Berlin, Detroit, Toronto, Portland, and Bedford, UK, with additional engagements to be announced. Kim has enjoyed recent North American successes at Los Angeles Opera, Washington National Opera, and Houston Grand Opera, where The New York Times pronounced her “a major star…with great sensitivity and flexibility.” Her debut with the Los Angeles Philharmonic was quickly followed by debut engagements with Oregon Symphony and Seattle Symphony, and her triumphant return to Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra was hailed by the Business Courier as “impeccable…a dynamic presence, illuminating details of the score with clarity and expressive power.”

DSO PERFORMANCE MAGAZINE
In addition to her growing North American presence, Kim is a regular guest conductor at many important European opera houses. She maintains a particularly close connection with the Staatsoper Berlin, where she has recently conducted successful productions of La traviata, Ariadne auf Naxos, Madama Butterfly, Un ballo in maschera, and Il trovatore. She has appeared consistently at opera houses across Germany, leading productions of Hänsel und Gretel at Bayerische Staatsoper, Madama Butterfly at Staatsoper Stuttgart, Rigoletto at Semperoper Dresden, and a new production of Lucia di Lammermoor at Oper Köln. She has been frequently engaged by Oper Frankfurt, where she celebrated successes with La Sonnambula, The Count of Luxembourg, La bohème, Die Csárdásfürstin, and Der Fliegende Holländer. Kim established herself in Scandinavia with a successful debut at the Royal Swedish Opera in Madama Butterfly, returning there to conduct Il barbiere di Siviglia. Her performances of Il trovatore at Royal Danish Opera in Copenhagen, Carmen in Oslo, and Madama Butterfly and Der Fliegende Holländer in Bergen have been complemented by concert appearances with Gothenburg Symphony and Norwegian Radio Orchestra, as well as orchestras in Malmö, Umeå, and Aarhus. Kim’s recent engagements have also included a new production of Die Fledermaus with English National Opera, Carmen at Opernhaus Zürich, Hänsel und Gretel, Carmen, and Die Fledermaus at Volksoper Wien, Il viaggio a Reims at Teatro Real Madrid, La traviata at Opéra de Marseille, and La bohème with Oper Graz. Concert performances comprise appearances with Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre National de France, Beethoven Orchestra Bonn, and Stuttgart Philharmonic, as well as orchestras in Madrid, Marseille, Munich, Lille, Nancy, Milan, Palermo,
WINTER 2021-2022
Turin, Milwaukee, Calgary, and Santiago de Compostela. Kim studied composition and conducting in her hometown of Seoul, South Korea, before continuing her studies in Stuttgart, where she graduated with distinction. Directly after graduation, she was awarded the First Prize in the International Jesús López Cobos Opera Conducting Competition at the Teatro Real Madrid.
MILOŠ
F
irmly positioned as a leading exponent of his instrument, Miloš has appeared in some of the most important concert halls and at major festivals around the world, including with the Chicago Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, LA Philharmonic, and Cleveland Orchestra. His first three releases on Deutsche Grammophon achieved chart-topping successes around the globe and turned him into “classical music’s guitar hero” (BBC Music Magazine) overnight. His recording of Rodrigo’s concerto with Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the London Philharmonic had the Sunday Times calling him “The King of Aranjuez,” while his record, Blackbird– The Beatles Album — including duets with Gregory Porter, Tori Amos, Steven Isserlis, and Anoushka Shankar — was released to unanimous praise. Miloš’ 2019 album, Sound of Silence, joined his previous albums, in reaching No. 1 on the UK Classical charts, and on Amazon. Miloš is the first ever classical guitarist to have performed in solo recital at the Royal Albert Hall in London, The Guardian commenting: “More extraordinary by far was the way a single guitarist could shrink the Hall’s cavernous space into something so close.” The Independent concluded: “not only a magician, but a serious and

#IAMDSO
accomplished musician.” In August 2018 Miloš made a triumphant return to the hall. In front of 6,000 people at the BBC Proms, he performed the world premiere of Joby Talbot’s guitar concerto, Ink Dark Moon written especially for him, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Committed to commissioning new repertoire for the guitar, Miloš joined the NAC Ottawa in May 2019 to perform another concerto written especially for him, ‘The Forest’ by Howard Shore. In 2021, Miloš released his sixth album The Moon and the Forest, featuring the Talbot and Shore concerti as well as Ludovico Einaudi’s ‘Full Moon’ and Schumann’s ‘Traumerei’. This latest album marks Miloš’s 10-year anniversary with Decca and was hailed by Gramophone as offering “new perspectives on the relationship between guitar and orchestra, performed with conviction and elan.” Taking every opportunity to promote classical music to the widest possible audience, Miloš often finds himself in the role of a radio and TV presenter. He is a passionate supporter of music education and acts as a Patron of the Mayor of London Fund for Young Musicians and the Awards for Young Musicians. Miloš records exclusively for Decca Classics, and BBC Music Magazine included him amongst six of the greatest classical guitarists of the last century. He lives in London and performs on a 2007 Greg Smallman guitar.

L
os Angeles-based theatrical circus company, Troupe Vertigo, was founded in 2009 by Aloysia Gavre (Cirque du Soleil) and her husband Rex Camphuis (Pickle Family Circus/ film and theater producer). They create an eclectic and refreshing mix of circus-dance-theater works that ignite the imagination with mentally and physically spellbinding dso.org

performances. Troupe Vertigo encompasses the wide spectrum of the performing arts including performances at theaters, concert halls, festivals, and special events. Troupe Vertigo has been creatively involved with world class symphonies contributing widely with their theatrical sensibilities to help create new audiences to Symphonic Concerts. Including most recently with renowned conductor Jack Everly for Cirque Goes Broadway and Cirque Cracker with the Phoenix Symphony. Their unique perspective on the circus arts have led to a variety of speaking engagements including with The Center Theater Group Los Angeles, Directors Lab West, TEDx Talk, and The Chicago Contemporary Circus Festival. As well in publications for the cover story of Dance Teacher Magazine (August 2016) and in the book Ordinary Acrobat. Troupe Vertigo premiered its first show in Los Angeles, Big Top for a New Generation, in 2010 at the Ford Amphitheater with a young rock n’ roll group — Nightmare & The Cat, featuring Django and Sam Stewart. 2016 brought the creation of their newest work to life entitled Tableaux originally presented by the Dance Resource Center at the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles. Tableaux features five women inquiring about confinement and freedom, while finding themselves constrained on an island of boxes, trapped by the constrictions of society and themselves. Troupe Vertigo’s facility is also home to Cirque School, Los Angeles’s premier circus training space, which inspires an appreciation for the circus arts for “Anybody with Any Body.” Due to their Los Angeles home and having Cirque School as their sister company, Aloysia and Rex’s expertise are used often for the film and television industry. Most notably for Rebel Wilson’s aerial performance in Pitch Perfect 2 and with Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz who utilized Cirque School resources not only for circus instruction, but also for character background research for the film Water for Elephants.
