WALT WOLFRAM: "What I mean by linguistic profiling is to hear a voice and on the basis of that voice make a judgment about that person which would sort of rate them or exclude them or in some sense not treat them fairly." RS: Linguist Walt Wolfram at North Carolina State University says this sort of thing happens all the time. For example, he notes that Americans tend to think of people from New York City and the South as sounding less educated than others. Unless you ask a New Yorker or a Southerner, that is.

By JOHN FLEMING, Times Performing Arts Critic Published February 22, 2004 Pianist Kirill Gerstein will be featured in Rachmaninoff: Piano Concerto No. 3, Jan. 22-24. The Florida Orchestra had a close eye on the bottom line when putting together its 2004-05 masterworks season, says music director Stefan Sanderling. "We have to balance the artistic side of it and the financial aspect of it," Sanderling said. "We have to make sure that every single program is a financial success. Our situation is very dangerous at the moment." One people pleaser: A Rachmaninoff minifestival, with three programs featuring three Russian pianists in the composer's four piano concertos plus his Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, a lineup that includes some of the most oft-played works in the orchestral repertoire.

For the season brochure, Sanderling is pictured in not the standard-issue tuxedo but a baggy white linen suit and black T-shirt, looking more like a lounge singer than the music director of a symphony orchestra. This weekend, when the orchestra plays its first masterworks program of the season, Sanderling will inaugurate an experiment that he hopes will bring fresh listeners to symphonic music. It's a series of Saturday morning concerts at St. Petersburg's Mahaffey Theater that the orchestra is calling "Stefan's Sneak Peeks."

Post.; ERWIIN DRESSEL: Sonata in E Flat Major - Frank Lunte, alto sax/Tatjana Blome, piano - EDA 021-2 (Distr. Albany): Although from its invention in the mid-19th century composers such as Berlioz had occasionally used the new saxophone in their music, it was in the 1930s that many composers in Europe began to explore the saxophone in serious classical works. WW II interrupted this, and in the 80s new works for the sax began to appear and many sax quartets and quintets were formed. This enterprising small label plans a three-volume series covering just chamber works for alto sax with piano, from Berlin-based composers in the 20th century. The Lunte/Blome Duo was formed to expose this repertory and will be heard in all three volumes.

The BBC Philharmonic plays brilliantly under Gianandrea Noseda, who a year ago was appointed Principal Conductor. He brings out all of the verve of Respighi's delightful magic toyshop ballet which was written for Diaghilev and premiered in 1919 with Massine as one of the two can-can dancers. Equally intriguing is another ballet, the 25-minute La pentola magica (The Magic Pot), first performed in 1920. Respighi wrote this "for fun" and it sounds like it. He took from several other Russian composers including Grechaninov, Arensky and Anton Rubinstein, the latter represented by the exciting "Dance of the Tartar Archers." track 14 on the CD. Respighi had a close relationship with Arturo Toscanini who premiered a number of his works including the composer's full-scale transcription of Bach's Prelude and Fugue in D, P. 158 which he commissioned and premiered in New York in 1930. A large orchestra is required replete with blazing brass (but, surprisingly, no organ), a robust conclusion to this superbly-recorded CD.

C lassical music is in abundance through July 6 at The Colorado College, which is celebrating the 20th year of its annual Summer Music Festival. With complimentary tuition (in honor of its anniversary) for the music students, the Festival attracts national and international faculty musicians, and concerts range from Festival student orchestra performances to faculty chamber recitals. The repertoire runs the gamut, and the faculty chamber performance on Wednesday, June 23, was an excellent marriage of an intriguing program and superb musicianship. While at times the two pianos appeared to overpower their cellos and horn partners, some of the most effective moments were the antiphonal conversations alternating between the pianos and their cello counterparts. Both Susan Grace and William Wolfram tackled the piano's acrobatics with zest, and cellists David Ying and Bion Tsang played with grace and the camaraderie of old friends. The "big piece" of the evening was Richard Strauss' "Metamorphosen " Many will recognize the work, as it is often included in orchestral performances for the string section. It is a mournful depiction of the devastation of war written upon the conclusion of World War II, and Strauss' grief over the destruction of Dresden, Weimar and Munich. As he was quoted in 1945, "History is almost entirely an unbroken chain of acts of stupidity and wickedness, every sort of baseness, greed, betrayal, murder and destruction. And how little those who are called upon to make history have learned from it." The chamber version upon which the popular orchestral version was based was not discovered until 1990 and was written for two violins, two violas, two cellos and a bass.

78. Classical Voice Of North Carolina but illness forced her to bow out and william wolfram stepped into the breach, wolfram, who visited here many years ago as a young pianist, http://www.cvnc.org/reviews/2003/september/AlastairWillis.html

Conductor Alastair Willis Wears Tchaikovsky's Heart on His Sleeve Meymandi Hall, Raleigh, September 19 : The North Carolina Symphony's latest candidate for music director, Alastair Willis, took the orchestra and audience through the familiar territory of Beethoven and Tchaikovsky. On the whole, this is not a bad way to showcase a candidate; if nothing else, it makes it possible to evaluate his interpretations against those of countless other conductors. The conductor, on the other hand, is faced with the challenge of making the music sound fresh, not only merely comfortable. Willis was clearly aware of the challenge and sought to meet it, sometimes successfully, sometimes decidedly not. Dmitry Kabalevsky's overture to his opera Colas Breugnon opened the concert with a bang. The work, one of the few compositions of his large output ever performed outside Russia, is usually relegated to easy listening programs, a natural for the Summerfest concerts in Regency Park. We would have preferred a more contemporary work in its place in order to hear how Willis handles more complex music. Nevertheless, he pulled out all the stops for this rousing work and elicited good balance from the orchestra sections and soloists. Most important in this piece, rhythms were snappy. A word about cadenzas. This is not the first time that we have heard unfamiliar cadenzas that simply didn't work. We never know where they come from - perhaps from the pen of the soloists themselves - but more often than not, they sound, as in Wolfram's case, jarringly anachronistic and unmusical. So, if you can't improve on existing cadenzas, leave well enough alone.
