This year marks David Effron's tenth summer as artistic director and principal

conductor of the Brevard Music Center. During his tenure, he has continued to

raise the level of excellence among both students and faculty. Effron's ties to the

Music Center date back to the 1950s, when he attended as a piano student. He

retires from his Brevard post at the conclusion of the 2007 season.

A distinguished conductor of the highest level, Effron's impressive 40-year

career has included appearances with major symphonies and opera companies

throughout North America, Europe and the Far East. In the spring of 2006, he led

world premiere performances of Ned Rorem's opera Our Town. Effron's previous

conducting positions include New York City Opera, Central City Opera and Ohio's

Youngstown Symphony Orchestra. As an educator, he taught at the Curtis Institute of Music and, for

twenty-one years, supervised the orchestral program at the Eastman School of Music. Since 1998, h

has served as professor of conducting at Indiana University and was recently appointed chairman o

conducting department. Hundreds of former students now hold positions with principal orchestras an

opera companies throughout North America and Europe.

A Grammy Award-winning artist, Effron received the distinguished honor in 1984 for his recording of

Copland's A Lincoln Portrait. His discography also includes a 1987 Pantheon recording with the Eas

Philharmonia and soprano Benita Valente, which won the German Critics Prize. Additionally, Effron j

forces with flutist James Galway for a recording of John Corigliano's Pied Piper Fantasy, winning a to

prize from Ovation Magazine.

Effron holds degrees from the University of Michigan and Indiana University. As a Fulbright Scholar,

assisted Wolfgang Sawallisch at the Cologne Opera House in Germany. He was also a recipient of a

Rockefeller Foundation Grant. In 2003, Effron received the "Musician of the Year Award" from the Na

Federation of Music Clubs and,in

Peter Serkin, piano

Recognized as an artist of passion and integrity, pianist Peter Serkin

is one of the most thoughtful and individualistic musicians appearing

before the public today. His repertoire spans four centuries of music,

ranging from Bach to Berio, Tchaikovsky to Takemitsu. New York

Magazine hailed Serkin "one of the supreme musicians of our time."

A product of the Curtis Institute of Music, Serkin made his Marlboro

Music Festival debut in 1959, followed by a New York City debut

under conductor Alexander Schneider. Since then, he has appeared

on the world's great concert and recital stages. He has collaborated

with such artists as Alexander Schneider, Pamela Frank and Yo-Yo Ma,

as well as the Budapest, Guarneri and Orion string quartets. Serkin was honored as the first piani

to receive the Premia Internazionale Musicale Chigiana in recognition of his outstanding artistic

achievement.

"[Serkin's] great gift is to find the essential music in everything he plays," reported the Boston Glob

"He never fusses but goes right to the point. The keyboard virtuosity is unobtrusively there, as a w

get into what matters most." In his own words, Serkin remarks : "I am not trying to convert anyone

just trying to play music I believe in." For more information , visit www.fredonia.edu/som.

Program Notes

Symphony No.1 in C Minor, Op. 68

Completed: September 1876

Premiere: Karlsruhe on November 4, 1876

The trajectory of Brahms' career reflects the fact he was a discovery, an overnight sensation, who

exceptional talent was recognized by a man of influence, Robert Schumann. When Brahms met th

Schumanns (Robert and Clara), he was twenty years old and a relative unknown from Hamburg.

Schumann authored a famous and widely read essay, Neue Bahnen (New Paths), hailing Brahms

voice of the future who was "sprung like Minerva fully armed from the head of Jupiter." Although B

yet to write a work for orchestra, he was now publicly admonished to take up where the great sym

master, Beethoven, had left off. Knowing he would be judged by the highest standards, Brahms w

paralyzed by the thought of coming short of expectations. He remarked to a friend, "You don't kno

it is like to be dogged by his footsteps." So dogged was Brahms, that the periodof

gestation for thSymphony took twenty-two years, during which time he struggled to balance classical intellectual

with romantic inspiration. He made a serious study of Bach and Beethoven works, including the F

Ninth symphonies and Third Piano Concerto. Brahms took these works as models but knew his fa

a symphonist would rest upon his ability to take the tradition down his own "new path." The enthus

popular and artistic reception of the Variations on a Theme by Haydn (1873-74) was likely the imp

Brahms to finally complete his first symphony. Its premiere in 1876 was the significant milestone t

him to compose other large-scale masterworks for orchestra.

Program Notes

Gabriela Lena Frank: Three Latin-American Dances for Orchestra (2003)

Gabriela Lena Frank was born in Berkeley. Ca lifornia, in 1972. She holds degrees from Rice Univ

and the University of Mi chigan. Frank has written the follow in g program note fo r Three Latin-Ame

Dances:

I. Introduction: Jungle Jaunt

This introductory scherzo opens in an unabashed tribute to the Symphonic Dances from We st Sid

Story by Leonard Berste in before turning to harmonies and rhythms derived from various pan-Am

dance fo rms. These jungle references are sped th rough (so as to be largely hidden) while echoingenergy of the Argentin ia n composer Alberto Ginastera who was long fascin ated with indigenous l

american cultures .

II . Highland Harawi

This movement is the heart of Th re e Latin American Dances, and evokes the Andean harawi, a

melancholy adagio traditionally sung by a sin gle bamboo quena flute so as to accompany a singl

As mountain music, the ambiance of mystery, vastness and echo is evoke d. The fast middle secti

simulates what I imagine to be the "zumballyu " of Iliapa, a great spinning top belonging to Iliapa ,

Peruvian-Inca weather deity of thunder, lightning and ra in . Il lapa spins his great top in the highlan

of the Andes befo re allowing a return to the more staid harawi . The music of the Hungarian comp

Bela Bartok, is eluded to.

III . The Mestizo Waltz

As if in relief to th e gravity of the previous movement, this final movement is a lighthearted tri bute

"mestizo" or mixed-race music of the South American Pacific coast. In particular. it evokes the "rom

tradition of popular songs and dances that mix influences fro m indigenous Indian cultures , African

cultures and western brass bands.

Three Latin American Dances received its premiere by the Utah Syn lphony Orchestra Ke ith Lock

2004. The sar"e forces are responsible for the work's first recording, which was released in April

Symphony Orchestra, the New York Times described the violinist as "a sweet-toned soloist, lending R

arching, lyrical strains welcome luminosity ... McDuffie all but erases memories of Heifetz's famous

recording, which is precise but cool by comparison." In 2008 he premieres The American Four Sea

a new work by Philip Glass, and will tour Europe and the United States, pairing it with the Vivaldi

Seasons. He will record both works for Telarc International.

McDuffie has been profiled on NBC's Today, CBS Sunday Morning, PBS's Charlie Rose , A&E's Bre

with the Arts, and in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. He is a distinguished uni

professor of music at Mercer University in his hometown of Macon, Georgia. He is a Grammy nom

artist whose acclaimed recordings for Telarc include the violin concertos of Mendelssohn, Bruch, Ad

Glass, Barber and Rozsa , as well as Viennese favorites. He plays a 1735 Guarneri del Gesu violin, k

as the "Ladenburg" .
