He will travel from Ann Arbor, Michigan where he is director of orchestras and head of the orchestral conducting program at the University of Michigan School of Music. Conductor Laureate Kenneth Kiesler, Conductor Laureate of the Illinois Symphony and Chamber Orchestras, inspired unprecedented artistic development during a 20-year conducting tenure and received widespread community support for his leadership. His achievements were exemplary. He was the founder of the Illinois Symphony Orchestra and Music Director for 20 years.

44. Michael Colgrass, Composer, Writer And NLP Trainer pianist lorin hollander can see in his mind's eye the notes of a piece he'slearned, almost as if the music were on a music stand in front of him. http://www.michaelcolgrass.com/73.html

Back to Excellence In Performance Back to Excellence In Performance "Performing at Your Best," Music Magazine By Michael Colgrass What's the best way for a musician to prepare for performance? How do we learn fastest and memorize best? Each performer is unique and we have no pat answers to these questions, but I have found that the most solid performers not only hear and feel the music deeply, they also use imagery to improve their performance. For example, string players strive to develop a big tone, but simply practicing longer and louder will only fatigue the fingers. Violist Emanuel Vardi is known for the gigantic size and beauty of his tone, even though he uses a small viola. I once asked him how he accomplished this richness of sound and he told me he had spent long periods of time practicing while looking at mountains and projecting his sound to the uppermost peaks. He would actually see the sound floating to the mountain tops. His fingers instinctively made all the adjustments necessary to accommodate this image, and when he got to the concert hall he could project effortlessly to the last row of the balcony. French Horn player Joseph Eger solved the age-old problem of "cracking" on an entrance by making a visual image of a target and imagining the note he was about to play as the bull's eye. Not only did he avoid cracking, but he improved his intonation as well, because he hit the note dead center. Mezzo-soprano Jan DeGaetani used imagery to guarantee a high level of performance. I once asked her how she managed to sing at her highest standard when performing with an inferior orchestra, which all great performers are occasionally obligated to do. "Oh, that's easy, she said, "I just imagine the ideal orchestra and conductor for the music I'm singing. If it's Mahler, I see Karajan on the podium and hear the Berlin Philharmonic."

Duty Enlivens History Classroom In an about-face, is back at his desk at Preston Hall but it may not be for long. A commander in the U.S. Naval Reserve specializing in intelligence and a history professor at Mercyhurst College, Belovarac returned to the classroom this fall after spending nearly the entire 2001-2002 academic year on active duty in Japan. But no sooner had he rolled up his shirtsleeves and got back into lecture-mode than he received a new assignment to a reserve unit at the Defense Intelligence Agency in Washington, D.C., which supports attaché personnel at embassies throughout the world. Soon he will attend a two-week orientation course at the Defense Attaché School in Washington. A year ago, in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Belovarac was mobilized as part of U.S. Naval Reserve counter-terrorism support in Japan. His role was to assess the terrorist threat in Japan and aid in force protection efforts.

Born in 1977 in Durham, New Hampshire, Jocelyn began her piano studies at the age of three. Early success in competition led her to the national finals of the National Music Teacher's Association piano competition in Interlochen, Michigan at the age of six. After moving to the Boston area, Jocelyn continued her studies at the Longy School of Music with Faina Bryanskaya winning second prize in the Longy School of Music Young Artist Concerto Competition.

In her third year at Carnegie Mellon University, Jocelyn won the Carnegie Mellon Concerto Competition playing Poulenc's Concerto for two pianos with Costa Rican pianist, Walter Morales. Jocelyn and Walter's performance with the Carnegie Mellon Philharmonic received much acclaim and led to an invitation to play with the Chilean National Symphony Orchestra during Las Semanas Musicales in Frutillar, Chile. This past summer Jocelyn was one of twelve pianists chosen to attend Pianofest in the Hamptons, a festival directed and founded by Paul Schenley.

60. Music Concert pianist lorin hollander has described the rich visual imagery he hasexperienced all his life on playing the works of the great composers. http://www.nyu.edu/classes/neimark/music.htm

THE MELODIES OF THE BODY by Larry Dossey Here, excerpts of an essay on music by Dr. Larry Dossey, and a report from the New York Times about how music forms actual, visual pictures in our brains. Dr. Ohno has notated over fifteen songs of the DNA of a variety of living organisms during the past two years. He finds that the more evolved an organism is, the more complicated is the music. The DNA of a single-cell protozoan, for example, translates into a simple four-note repetition. But the music transcribed from human DNAe.g., the body's receptor site for insulinis much more complex. Listeners knowledgeable about music have taken these DNA-based compositions for the music of Bach, Brahms, Chopin and other great composers. These melodies are majestic and inspiring. Many persons hearing them for the first time are moved to tears; they cannot believe their bodies, which they believed to be mere collections of chemicals, contain such uplifting, inspiring harmoniesthat they are musical... Recognizing the music latent in DNA suggests a new way of looking at evolution. Rather than a method of passing genes from one generation to another, the evolutionary process could be a way of passion the music along each generation "making music" for the next. Mutations would be ways of tinkering with the melody, of creating new, more complex tunes. "survival of the fittest' might mean "staying in key," "playing with the orchestra," or "maintaining the harmony." The natural world would not be "nature red in tooth and claw," it would be a gigantic symphony instead, composed of innumerable instruments...
