Neumann Lecture On Music:

Listening to Pain

with Deborah Wong, Ph.D., speaker

Monday, February 20, 2017 at 7:30p.m. North Court Choir Room

Please silence all electronic devices before the lecture begins. Recording of any kind is strictly prohibited.

About The Neumann Lecture Series

What do protest songs, madrigals, Mozart, cognitive neuroscience, and the Civil Rights era have in common? They've all been topics presented at the University of Richmond Neumann Lecture Series. The Department of Music started the series in 2003 to remember former music faculty member Frederick "Fritz" Neumann, who taught violin and started the University Symphony. Neumann held a Ph.D. in music education, as one might expect of a music professor. But his career was hardly a conventional one. Though he had trained as a violinist in childhood, he earned his first Ph.D. (in 1934 at the University of Berlin) in economics and political science, writing a dissertation on the stock market crash of 1929. After spending a few years working as an export-market analyst in Prague, he decided to take up the violin again- this time, more seriously. His studies took him to several major European cities- Berlin, Paris, Basel- and finally to New York, leading him to apply for United States citizenship. During World War II, he served in U.S. Army Intelligence for three years before resuming his music studies at Columbia University, where he earned his second Ph.D.

Starting in his late fifties, Neumann pursued yet another career with great dedication and vigor: the study of performance practices in 17th- and 18th­century music. During the next few decades, he published more than forty articles and three books that challenged performers and scholars to revisit long­held beliefs about how to execute musical ornaments and rhythms. He became a scholar of international renown, receiving grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Guggenheim Foundation, the American Philosophical Society, and the American Council of Learned Societies. In 1987, the American Musicological Society awarded his book, Ornamentation and Improvisation in Mozart, one of its highest honors: the Otto Kinkeldey prize, which is given annually to a book of "exceptional merit." After living for more than five decades in the United States, he had planned a trip to Prague in the spring of 1994, which would have been his first return visit since 1939. But he died that year in March at age 86, after a life overflowing with accomplishment.

The Neumann Lecture Series kicked off in 2003 with Christoph Wolff, a German­educated scholar who teaches at Harvard University and studies the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Wolff and Neumann were cut from similar cloth: both were educated in Germany and interested in 18-century music, reflecting a branch of music-historical study that centered on Austro-German repertoire from centuries ago. But the scholarly interests of Neumann lecturers rapidly diversified: Susan McClary (2004) applied feminist methods of scholarship in her talk, while Kay Kaufmann Shelemay (2005) spoke about Syrian-Jewish music from an ethnomusicological perspective. Guthrie Ramsey (2007) is the only speaker to date who brought his own band with him to illustrate his lecture on music in the Civil Rights movement. Opera scholar and native Londoner Roger Parker (2008) talked about a 1930 production of Puccini's Manon Lescaut at the famed La Scala opera house. Later that year, Suzanne Cusick introduced research on the use of music as a form of torture in the U.S. "global war on terror," which she discovered through unclassified military documents and interviews with detainees and interrogators. Craig Wright (2013), who started out as a

scholar of medieval music, discussed a new project in which he applied current neuroscientific knowledge of the brain to Mozart's compositional processes. Anthony Seeger (2014), nephew of folk singer Pete Seeger, talked about protest music in the 1960s, singing a few songs and accompanying himself on the banjo. In 2015, Jessie Ann Owens discussed how the Italian Renaissance composer Cipriano de Rore turned a well-known literary lament (that of Dido from Virgil's Aeneid) into a small-scale musical drama. And just last year, J. Peter Burkholder spoke about Charles lves's practices as a church organist and their impact on the compositional process behind works such as his Third Symphony.

About Deborah Wong, Ph.D.

This year's Neumann lecturer is Deborah Wong, an ethnomusicologist and Professor of Music at the University of California, Riverside. She specializes in the musics of Asian America and Thailand and has written two books, Speak It Louder: Asian Americans Making Music and Sounding the Center: History and Aesthetics in Thai Buddhist Ritual. Her book in progress is titled Louder and Faster: Taiko in Southern California and Beyond. She is a past President of the Society for Ethnomusicology, a series editor for Wesleyan University Press's Music/Culture series, and also serves on the Editorial Committee for the University of California Press. She has been a research team member for the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation

(IICSI) since 2008. Very active in public sector work at the national, state, and local levels, she currently serves as the Chair of the Advisory Council for the Smithsonian Institution's Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage. She served on the Board of Directors for the Alliance for California Traditional Arts for more than a decade, including a term as its President. Her 2015 nomination to the National Humanities Council by President Obama was held up for Senate confirmation by Republication obstructionism, and then withdrawn after Hillary Clinton's defeat. In Riverside, she is active in grassroots work on community­police relations and is the co-chair of the Riverside Coalition for Police Accountability.
