Tenth AnniversaryCelebration Concert

the dale worland slnqersMarch 1982

Dear Friends:

As I reflect on the ten years that The Dale Warland Singers have been inexistence, one emotion overpowers all others: a simple but profound feelingof gratitude---for having the privilege of developing a professional choralensemble in the Twin Cities and Minnesota, a community and state thatprovide such a positive and vital cultural atmosphere; for all the organiza-tions and individuals who have encouraged and supported us in countlessways; for the exciting variety of singing projects and collaborations (e.g.,staged performances of Bach's St. Matthew Passion with Minnesota Opera;broadcasts and concerts with The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra; recordingsinvolving Minnesota performers and composers for Augsburg Publishing House;singing Handel's Messiah with Robert Shaw and the Minnesota Orchestra;concerts of new music at the Walker Art Center; and a variety of interestingcollaborations with the Schubert Club, to name just a few).

I am especially grateful for the immeasurable contributions of each singerwho has sung in the choir during its history, and who have given their "all"in difficult times and in good times. Above all, I am grateful to my familyand friends who have believed in The Dale War land Singers and have given somuch in so many ways to help achieve its goals.

However, mere words can in no way adequately express the depth of gratitudeI feel at this time.

To you, the audience, I want to express my deepest thanks for being heretoday to help us celebrate our Tenth Anniversary---and I hope you willcontinue to enjoy the music of the Singers for many years to come.

Sincerely,

-

IMagnificat in D (BWV243) (1732) Johann Sebastian Bach

(sung in Latin) (1685-1750)

Linda Steen, sopranoRosemary L. Barenz, soprano

Roxanne Bentley, altoDavid Schwandt, tenor

Steve Burger, bass

1. Magnificat (Chorus)2. Et exsultavit spiritus me us (Soprano Solo)

My soul doth magnify the Lord.And my spirit hath rejoiced in

God my savior.For He hath regarded the lowliness

of His handmaid:From henceforth all generations

shall call me blessed.For He that is mighty hath done

great things to me: and holy isHis name.

And His mercy is from generationunto generations, unto them thatfear Him.

He hath showed strength with Hisarm: He hath scattered the proud inthe imagination of their heart.

He hath put down the mighty fromtheir seat, and hath exalted thehumble.

He hath filled the hungry withgood things: and the rich He hath sentempty away.

He hath received Israel His servant,being mindful of His mercy.

As He spake to our forefathers,Abraham and to his seed for ever.

Glory be to the Father ...

- Luke 1:46-55

3. Quia respexit humilitatem (Soprano Solo)

4. Omnes generationes (Chorus)

5. Quia fecit mihi magna (Bass Solo)

6. Et misericordia (Alto and Tenor Duet)

7. Fecit potentiam (Chorus)

8. Deposuit potentes (Tenor Solo)

9. Esurientes implevit bonis (Alto Solo)

10. Suscepit Israel (Soprano I, II, Alto)

11. Sicut locutus est (Chorus)

12. Gloria Patri (Chorus)

The Magnificat was presented on the great Feast days and high festivals at the evening servicein Leipzig. Bach actually made two settings of this text. The first, written in 1723 (Bach's firstyear at Leipzig) for the Christmas evening service, was in the key of E-flat and included fourChristmas hymns. In 1732 Bach thoroughly revised it, omitting the Christmas hymns and set-ting it in D major. The Magnificat as performed today is considered the definitive form of thework.

It was Bach's first work on a grand scale, and the most important one he had produced up tothis time. Much like his cantatas of this period, the Magnificat has six arias and the grandopening and closing choruses. It also contains dozens of brilliant examples of Bach's skill atword painting, which show his sensitivity to both the meaning of the text-as well as his settingof the language.

III Hate and I Love (Odi et amo) Dominick Argento

(WORLD PREMIERE) (b. 1927)

I

I hate and I love. Perhaps you will ask how that can be possible.I do not know; but that is what I feel and it torments me.

II

Let us live, my Clodia, and let us love,And let the censorious whispers of the oldBe to us as worthless as the gold of fools.

Suns can set, then rise anew:But once our own brief light has dimmedWe shall sleep an eternal night.

III

Greetings, miss, with nose not small,Foot not pretty, eyes not black,Fingers not slender, mouth never resting,Speech neither musical nor elegant -Best greetings to you, miss!

And III Florence they call you a beauty?And compare you with my own Clodia?

o what a gross and ignorant age!

IV

My wornan says she will be no one's but mine,Not even should Jupiter himself wish to seduce her.

She says: but what woman says to lover -Write it on the wind or swift-running water.

V

Was it a lioness from the mountains of LibyaOr was it Scylla who barks from the depths of her groinWho gave birth to you with a heart so cold, so black,A heart that feels only contempt for the voice ofHim who pleads to you in vain?

You: with a heart so fierce?

VI

You promise me, my dearest life, that this our loveWill endure, will be joyous and never-ending.

a great gods, make what she promises be trueAnd make it come from the bottom of her heart,So that all our lives we will be able to keepThis sacred vow of etemallove.

VII

Wretched CatuIlus, put an end to this madness!That which is over and lost, you must count lost forever:Those radiant days that once shone upon youWhen you hastened to follow the girl wherever she led you -That same girl whom you loved as no other woman will ever be loved -(Wretched Catullus, put an end to this madness!)The countless delights in the sports of love,When what you desired, she desired and desired just as much.(Wretched Catullus!)0, radiant indeed were the days that once shone upon you!

Now suddenly she no longer wants your love, and you, being helpless, mustGive up this longing, cease to pursue her,Put an end to this torment and madness!(Wretched Catullus!)

° immortal gods, if you truly have pity,Tear out from my heart this pestilence, this plagueWhose insidious gnawing has driven all joy from my breast.

I no longer ask that this woman should love me,Nor do I ask the impossible, that she be chaste.My only wish now is that I be healed, and thisTerrible pain be assuaged.

VIII

Ihate and I love. Perhaps you will ask how that can be possible.I do not know; but that is what I feel and it torments me.

Liber Catulli Veronensis(freely translated bythe composer)

Commissioned by and dedicated to The Dale Warland Singers on the occasion of their TenthAnniversary, I Hate and I Love was funded by the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. Thiswork is based on the poems of Gaius Valerius Catullus, a Roman poet who was a contem-porary of Julius Caesar and lived ca. 84-54B.C.

"In selecting texts for musical settings I have been drawn more to prose than to poetry,especially biographical prose such as journals, diaries, and letters, because I find that privatestatements on the human condition and human passions in the straightforward, simplerlanguage of personal documents are more amenable to musical treatment. The texts I havechosen from Catullus are, of course, poetic and public, but I was attracted to them preciselybecause they are so autobiographical and particular."The love for Clodia - a married woman 10years his senior, beautiful, cultured, elegant, andincurably dissolute - is one of the central themes in the poetry of Catullus. Many of hispoems record the tempestuous affair: from infatuation to jealously; blissful contentment tobetrayal; reconciliation to resignation - and all of these experienced not just once, butrepeatedly. The circular nature of this chain of emotions prompted me to cast the music as acycle which stops (rather than concludes) at the point where it started and might very wellbegin all over again."The decision to use only percussion for the accompaniment was made primarily to avoid anyspecific historical connotations; like the human voice, percussion instruments can be both an-cient and modern, a quality of timelessness they share with Catullus' poetry which, two thou-sand years before Freud, was examining the thin line that separates love from hate and theperplexing ambiguities of those passions. "

Mass in G (1815) Franz Schubert(sung in Latin) (1797-1828)

Sigrid Johnson, sopranoWilliam Rollie, tenor

Steve Burger, bassLarry Lee Hensel, bass

I. KyrieII. Gloria

III. CredoIV. Sanctus et BenedictusV. Agnus Dei

Schubert's early masses were influenced by Haydn, but we also find in them a welcome infu-sion of Romanticism. Mass in G was written in five days at the age of 18 for the Liechtenthalparish church in Schubert's native part of Vienna, and was first performed there. It ispredominantly a vocal setting, with instrumental scoring only for strings (originally organ).The style is more homophonic than polyphonic, more secular than religious.

IVMass for Double Chorus (1922-1926) Frank Martin

(sung in Latin) (1890-1974)

I. KyrieII. Gloria

III. CredoIV. SanctusV. Agnus Dei

During his lifetime, Frank Martin enjoyed less popularity in this country than he did inEurope. A Swiss composer of French descent, Martin spent his last three decades in theNetherlands. His music shows a mixture of the French and German styles. The Mass for DoubleChorus is a fairly early work. It shows several of Martin's characteristics, such as "glidingtonality" (in which a movement rarely ends in the key in which it began), four-part choralchants, and the fact that he considered harmony to be the most important musical element.

HISTORY OF THE DALE WARLAND SINGERS

In the fall of 1970, Center Opera Company (now Minnesota Opera) and The Saint PaulChamber Orchestra invited Dale Warland to organize a chorus to participate in a concert ver-sion of Ralph Vaughan Williams' Sir John in Love. Known as the Opera Chorale, the ensem-ble premiered to popular acclaim on November 22, 1970. Minneapolis Tribune critic AllanHolbert wrote: "The chorus ... directed by Dale Warland is absolutely the finest opera chorusI've heard locally." Warland was asked to organize and take part in more choral projects,culminating in a second collaboration - this time as The Dale Warland Singers - with CenterOpera Company that took place in January 1972 in a performance of Stravinsky's The Rake'sProgress. The men of this newly-formed ensemble performed with renowned Swiss tenorErnst Haefliger in March; on June II, 1972, The Dale Warland Singers presented theirfirst full concert at Walker Art Center Auditorium. A demanding and diversified program infive languages, the performance was indicative of the stunning quality and versatility that wasto become a hallmark of the The Dale Warland Singers in the ensuing years.

The ensemble's reputation grew, with sponsorship of their appearances coming first from theSchubert Club and Walker Art Center. Other distinguished engagements soon followed, andhighlights of the first two seasons included collaborations with the Minnesota Orchestra, TheSaint Paul Chamber Orchestra, and the American Brass Quintet. In the December 12, 1973,issue of the Minneapolis Star, music critic Roy Close wrote that "Watland's group ... hasclearly established itself, I think, as the premier vocal group in this area."

Warland's high standards of musicianship and inventive programming were attracting increas-ing numbers of highly skilled singers to audition for the ensemble, and Norman Luboff toldMinneapolis Star columnist Barbara Flanagan that "The people of this area should stand upand cheer for Dale Warland and his Singers." On April 10, 1976, the ensemble was selected topresent a special performance in honor of His Majesty Karl XVI Gustaf, King of Sweden, atthe Minnesota American Swedish Bicentennial Festival at the Minneapolis Auditorium.

The past five seasons have included such highlights as the Midwest premiere of the staged ver-sion of Bach's St. Matthew Passion in collaboration with Minnesota Opera, performances ofHandel's complete Messiah with the Minnesota Orchestra under the baton of Robert Shaw,and the release of La Fiesta de la Posada - a digital recording, released by CBS Masterworks,with Dave Brubeck and The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra under the direction of DennisRussell Davies.

At the request of the Swedish and Norwegian governments (Rikskonserter), The DaleWarland Singers accepted their first engagement abroad in the summer of 1977: a three-weektour of Scandinavia that included recording sessions for Swedish and Norwegian Radio as wellas performances at major music festivals in Sweden. Reviews were unanimously enthusiastic- "a presentation of the highest professional level" (Jonkiipings-Posten); "a choir of worldclass" (Leksand) - and the tour further strengthened the choral music bond between Scan-dinavia and Minnesota, fostered principally by Dale Warland's keen personal and profes-sional interest in performing the works of many Scandinavian composers.

The Dale Warland Singers have greatly increased their performance activity in the UpperMidwest region, broadcast regularly over Minnesota Public Radio and National Public Radio,established an annual subscription concert series, and to date may be heard on eight record-ings: Echoes of Christmas (Augsburg), Choral Mosaic (Augsburg), La Fiesta de la Posada(CBS Masterworks), 250 Years of Great Choral Music (Musical Heritage Society), SwedishChoral Ballads (Walton), Gloria (Walton), Carols oj Christmas (Augsburg), and Americana- A Bit oj Folk (Augsburg).

With a vast and varied repertoire and well over 100 performances behind them, publicawareness and recognition has begun to catch up to critical acclaim and necessitated movingto larger performing halls. Since its inception, the ensemble has passed through many stages inits development, including a gradual but firm transition from amateur to professional status(it is now a voting member of the Association of Professional Vocal Ensembles), the expan-sion of the Board of Directors and establishment of an Advisory Board, and the institution ofprofessional full-time management.

Primarily responsible for this phenomenal reputation and growth has been the musicianship,vision, persistence and professionalism of Dale Warland - and The Dale Warland Singerscelebrate their Tenth Anniversary as one of the premier choral ensembles in the country.
