WHY ENGAGE WITH THE ARTS

Adapted from “Learning Through the Arts” by Dee Dickinson

• The arts provide opportunities for expression—bringing the inner workings of ourselves out into the world around us.

• The arts give us a language that all people can speak, connecting us culturally and socially by breaking down the barriers of economics and education.

• The arts allow us to learn about and appreciate other cultures.

• The arts provide the means for everyone to learn, improving academic achievement through test scores, and enhancing social skills as well as critical and creative thinking.

• The arts make it possible to use personal strengths in meaningful ways, allowing bridges to understanding difficult abstractions.

Learning to trust and develop friendships while engaged in creativity brings the connection down to one-on-one and allows the larger community to gather and experience the arts together.

College of DuPageMusic Faculty Recital

Thursday, Oct. 8, 2015Playhouse Theatre, 7:30 p.m.

Welcome to Music at the MACSince long before the groundbreaking for the McAninch Arts Center, student and community musicians have explored the musical arts, honed their skills and entertained audiences at College of DuPage. From buildings M and K on west campus to off-campus sites to the McAninch Arts Center and now at the newly renovated MAC, the sounds of learning, making and listening to music have filled our classrooms and our stages.

Students and community members from throughout the district converge on the MAC every week for the joy of making music. Our singers and players range from their teens to their 80s, from those seeking degrees to those who have already earned them, to those who make music purely for the love of it.

We hope you enjoy the broad range of music we make with collaborations of eager musicians and experienced faculty in music from classical, jazz and unclassifiable styles. All of our ensembles welcome new members at the start of every semester and all of our ensembles perform at least once a semester.

Sit back and let the music wash over you. Visit the Cleve Carney Art Gallery while you’re here. Drop in on our free Music Fridays @ Noon. Stay connected to us by joining us on Facebook (AtTheMAC) or by joining our e-newsletter for news about all the events at the MAC (www.AtTheMAC.org). And think about coming back to join one of our ensembles or take private lessons or music courses.

We’re grateful to have you in our audience—and grateful for all the advantages of making music at College of DuPage.

Enjoy the music—we make it for you.

The Music Faculty at College of DuPage

Tango Works of Astor Piazzolla

The evolution and surging renaissance of the work of Astor Piazzolla has impacted far beyond the fields of world music and jazz — as it is now absorbed by the classic music world. YoYo Ma characterizes the depth, “Suddenly it hit me. The music caught me like a fever that wouldn’t let go…It is a music of deep undercurrents. Because of what Argentina went through as a country, tango has become the soul of Argentina…Piazzolla’s tangos have the great strength of true voice.” The music shocks us into the vitality of an expressive world, with the emotional range and instrumental flavor emerging from a late 19th century multi-national immigrant fabric in the poor, violent, and voracious atmosphere of the outskirts of Buenos Aires. This explicit power and allure of Piazzolla’s composition soon spread to the upper classes, and finally abroad, especially to the Paris of the 1910’s.

Argentinian-born of Italian immigrant parents (1921), Piazzolla was immersed in a kaleidoscope of music influences and genres from the Argentinian jazz clubs of New York, to the study of works of Bach, Stravinsky, Bartok, Ravel, Ginastera, and critical involvement with improvisation in compositional development and expression.

Awarded a French government study grant (1954) with Madame Nadia Boulanger at Fontainebleau, Piazzolla attempted to hide his ‘tango’ past. It was only within a few compositional meetings that Madame Boulanger recommended he exercise his native Argentinian vocabulary with courage… “Your tango is the new music, and it is sincere.” Piazzolla’s Tango Nuevo then evolved. As Piazzolla insisted, he “wished to free the tango harmonically, melodically, rhythmically and aesthetically.” His composition in this form resulted in over one thousand works, including concertos, chamber music, film scores, theatre music, an oratorio and songs.

Composed in 1974, the Libertango blends the Argentine Astor Piazzolla’s focus on this tango as “a sort of song to liberty.” It expresses a new sound of Piazzolla: “rhythmic thrust and jazz-like improvisations interspersed between intoxicating themes.” Tangata was an outburst of Piazzolla’s firm belief of dual protection in his worldly existence: through Sylphe, the spirit of the air, and Ondine, the spirit of the water. The sweeping and intense themes and motifs were introduced as the musical tableau for the 1969 ballet of Argentine choreographer Oscar Araiz.

He now attends the College of DuPage. Perry is studying and learning all aspects of music under great mentors and teachers such as Dave Rice, Tom Tallman, Lee Kesselman and Ken Paoli. He has toured various cities and states, and continues to play venues nationally.

As a COD part-time piano faculty member of 7 years, Dr. Reddington was awarded a College of DuPage Liberal Arts Faculty Grant, presenting a lecture-performance of Olivier Messiaen’s works, which was later presented at Srinakharinwirot University of Bangkok. Performances are available on CD, and emerging composers Jonathan Zimmer and John Booth are also included. Receiving the Doctor of Musical Arts performance degree from the College Conservatory of Music (CCM), University of Cincinnati, Dr. Reddington’s work includes study with Eugene & Elisabeth Pridonoff, Marion Hall MacFayden, Soulima Stravinsky, Alfonso Montecino, James Tocco, Hans Graf, Rafael de Silva, and Gaby Casadesus. She has also coached with Menahem Pressler of the Beaux Arts Trio, the Tokyo String Quartet, the Quatuor Via Nova de France, and the IRCAM Ensemble Contemporain de France. Dr. Reddington served as Chair of Performing Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University; and as director and faculty of Bermudian music conservatories/schools, she initiated the establishment of the international chamber music series Some Enchanted Evening.

With great support and encouragement in the growth of all piano interest in this most meaningful and important world of music, Dr. Reddington is deeply interested in the development, challenge, careful discovery and student learning in this process. Through educational, pianistic and professional events, Dr. Reddington has functioned as an adjudicator and master-class presenter in Chicago and northern Illinois’ festivals and competitions, being awarded the 2014 Outstanding Member of the Year of the Music Teachers National Association west suburban chapter. She has had piano students included/awarded in the Cairn-Maling Piano 2012 Piano Competition of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Dr. Reddington has served as Director of the Berkley-Pendell Piano Scholarship Competition, the newly rejuvenated youth piano competition of the western Chicago suburban area, additionally serving as a Piano Examiner of the Canadian Royal Conservatory of Music’s adjudication of Canadian young pianists.

Dr. Reddington and Marcia Lehe were recently designated as performers of these and other Astor Piazzolla works at this fall’s 2015 Convention of the Illinois State Music Teachers Association.
