TROY CHROMATIC CONCERTS Great Performances in a Great Hall A HISTORY OF THE TROY CHROMATIC CONCERTS Researcher: Robert N. Andersen Writer: Paul W. Sulzmann At the National Archives in Washington is a stone plaque with the inscription, "What is Past, is Prologue". As Troy Chromatic Concerts celebrates its long awaited Centennial Season, we take pride in recalling a truly extraordinary past, with memorable performances by many of the world's finest artists from Edward MacDowell and Lillian Nordica, to Kathleen Battle and Julian Bream. We also look with anticipation to a future which will continue this tradition of excellence into the next century. Indeed, providing the highest standards of programming for our audiences has been the beacon guiding our efforts from the very beginning. In the late eighteen hundreds, the rise of major orchestras and concert halls in such urban centers as Boston, New York and Chicago greatly encouraged a desire for the best in music among an increasingly aware and discerning public in smaller cities as well. It was during this exciting age that Chromatic Concerts was conceived, and steadily grew into the remarkable series which has so richly enhanced the cultural life of the Capital Region for the past century. The inspiration for the concerts developed out of student recitals presented by the noted Troy area teacher Dr. J. Albert Jeffery in the early 1890s. Held in private residences and small halls, they soon expanded to include local artists, and by 1894 David Cowee, Jr., prominent Washington Park resident and a pupil of Dr. Jeffery, led the group to organize as The Chromatic Club. A slate of officers was elected with Mrs. Frederick F. Buell as President; Mrs. Charles E.Hanaman, Secretary; and Miss Sarah Thurman, Treasurer. Cowee himself assumed the mantle of Manager-Treasurer of Concerts, and with vision, determination and energy directed the Club's progress for the following three decades.

90. Pianist Voro Plays UI Guest Recital Sept. 28 Irina Voro, a classical pianist whose emotional performances have been for piano by the early 20thcentury piano virtuoso and teacher harold bauer; http://www.uiowa.edu/~ournews/2004/september/091704voro.html

University of Iowa News Release Sept. 17, 2004 Pianist Voro Plays UI Guest Recital Sept. 28 Irina Voro, a classical pianist whose emotional performances have been hailed as "one of a kind," will present a free guest recital at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 28, in Harper Hall of the University of Iowa Voxman Music Building. Her eclectic program avoids the best-known Romantic piano repertoire, featuring instead lesser known works from the 18th to the 20th century. It also includes a style of performance that Voro has created on her own, what she calls "l'Excital." Made up of "lexis," meaning "word," and "recital," "l'Excital" combines classical music with Voro's personal poetic narratives and imaginative sound and visual effects to accent particular compositions. The narrations by Voro were recorded by Shannon Christy, and are played back while Voro performs the music being discussed. Voro said that the idea of personalizing the recital in this way came to her during one of her performances. "I felt like explaining to the people what I 'saw' in that music, and the audience's response afterwards was simply amazing! It turned out that the people appreciated the music even more after I told them my rather personal story about it. . . . I realized that that might be a way to revitalize the interest for classical concerts, to do (elegantly) away with the 'stiff and stuffy' part of the genre. Music is philosophy in sounds. Why not let people overtly tap into the performer's imagination and use it as a starting point for their own flights of fancy?"

Encyclopaedia now available on CD-ROM TRISTANO, Lennie b 19 March '19, Chicago; d 18 Nov. '78) Pianist, composer, teacher. Born during an epidemic, he was blind by age eleven. He also played reeds and played in dixieland and rhumba bands, absorbing everything. He recorded in NYC '45 with trombonist Earl Swope ( b 4 Aug. '22, Hagerstown MD; d Intuition '96 coupled with a Warne Marsh album, with notes by Martin.) Tristano was a rapidly evolving artist of great originality who stayed ahead of his audience; he was aware of this, saying of the '49 sextet, 'Instead of consolidating our position, it was always in a state of development, and that's no way to sell something.' A similar lineup without Bauer recorded for Prestige as the Lee Konitz Quintet '49; some sources said Tristano played piano, discographies say it was acolyte Sal Mosca ( b 27 April '27, Mt Vernon NY). The Metronome All-Star date '49 recorded three takes of Tristano's 'Victory Ball' (based on Gershwin's ''S Wonderful') which were anything but cold; Charlie Parker not only improvised on the chords but (unusually for him) on Tristano's theme. (Tristano was usually critical of other musicians, but loved Parker.) He opened a studio in NYC '50 and concentrated on teaching, knowing that he was not going to make a living as a leader; later students included English-born pianist Ronnie Ball and bassist Peter Ind (

It may be considered a supplement to the rollographies that list virtually all of the reproducing rolls issued before WW2. Special recognition is given Bill Flynt, of Dallas, Texas, who added the Ampico expression codes to the bulk of the songs listed from the early 1970s. "Many of the songs were originally recorded at the QRS recording studio by Roger Williams, Eubie Blake, Liberace and others.

TABLE OF CONTENTS ABOUT THE AUTHOR From the The Tenement Series of non-fiction essays by Harry Buschman The Piano We called it a 'middle class' tenement. It was a term we used to distinguish the fine line of difference in living conditions between ourselves and the poor unfortunates living in 'lower class' tenements. If you lived in a middle class tenement you and your family were racially segregated but ethnically mixed. Therefore, we were an ethnic stew made up of similarly colored ingredients. People in 'middle class' tenements had one thing in common, they all felt superior to their neighbors in the same building. If a family had the misfortune to live in a 'lower class' tenement they didn't feel superior to anything and their landlord collected his rent with two body-guards in attendance. There were no 'upper class' tenements. Our tenement was a five story building with a cellar. The word "basement" was not a part of our vocabulary. Each floor housed a family with roots in a different part of Europe. The tenement was the spawning ground of the children of the twentieth century, it was the melting pot they boiled and bubbled in, the roots of the homeland survived only in the memory of the old folks. The roots of the families in our 'middle' class tenement were as diverse as an Irish grass widow on the top floor, my family, comprised of Germans and English on the fourth, a large Jewish family from Poland on the third, and so on down the line to the Savino's on the first floor, whose three sons went to work in the uniforms of the sanitation, police and fire departments.
