文体が消える
そこにあるのは、小沢征爾という個人の中に確立された純粋な音楽思念の、虚飾を排した誠実な発露でしかない。彼はそれを立体的な音像として、満席のコンサートホールに鮮やかに再現することができた。作家が文体を真摯に追求すればするほど、文体自体が消えていって見えなくなり、あとには物語だけが残るーーそういうことが小説の世界にはある。征爾さんの晩年の演奏は、あるいはそういう熟達の境地に達していたのではないだろうか。

On the Spectrum music channel, Benjamin Britten. I like the fact that it doesn't have ads. They're playing "Gloriana." I remember it from college. A little info window often accompanies the music. This tidbit: Benjamin Britten was made a Lord. Well, Andrew Lloyd Webber was also. Britten's lover, Peter Pears, ended up living in Greenwich, Connecticut (this was after Britten's death; he took up residence with choral conductor Dick Vogt). He answered the phone with "Pears here!"
When I was doing some research (during my music librarian years) I stumbled on a story about Britten. He had a falling out with someone as a collaboration was in the works (was it Auden?). Britten received a letter (I think of apology) which he ripped into little pieces, put in an envelope and mailed back. There is nothing so scary as an angry poove.
Seiji Ozawa dies. 88. I remember seeing him, on the East Side, a few years ago. His hair completely white. Wizened, looking a little old Japanese lady. Think of all the hours he spent on airplanes. Amazing that he was able to do so much continent hopping. And almost thirty years with Boston. An amazing career.

Dr. Gerald R. Mack
From the page of Stephen D. Bruce:
Gerry Mack RIP
Abby and I visited Nancy and Gerry yesterday afternoon. I was able to tell him how much knowing him and working with him and singing with him had meant to me and so many of us. I reflected on the literally millions of people that had been touched by his performances and those of his many students and their many students. And I told him we’ll always laugh and sing beneath God’s clear, blue sky.
He passed away peacefully this morning.
RIP
Dr. Gerald R. Mack, 2014 recipient of the Alfred Nash Patterson Lifetime Achievement Award, is a nationally-known conductor, educator, and mentor. He was conductor of the Worcester Chorus in Massachusetts for 28 years (1977–2005), founder and leader for 15 years (1995–2000) of the Great Waters Music Festival in Wolfeboro, NH, and Director of Choral Activities and a faculty member for 27 years at the Hartt School of Music at the University of Hartford, Connecticut.
After retiring to Nantucket in 1999, he became the Executive Director of the Nantucket Community Music Center; he later established the Nantucket Art Council's highly successful winter concert series. The Worcester Chorus established a scholarship in his name in 2010.Dr. Mack has worked with Gunther Schuller, Yehudi Menuin, Michael Lancaster, Seiji Ozawa, and Aaron Copland, among others. His choruses have performed at Carnegie Hall, Tully Hall, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Jordan Hall, and Washington’s National Cathedral, as well as at many of the great concert halls of Europe.
He has conducted at the New York Mostly Mozart Festival, the Salzburg Music Festival, the International Dubrovnik Music Festival, and the Oaxaca Spring Festival (with the Mexican National Symphony).A dedicated educator with a deep commitment to colleagues and students, Dr. Mack has a national reputation as an adjudicator, lecturer, clinician and guest conductor. His high school choirs appeared at numerous MENC conventions (of the National Association for Music Education).
In 1961, his school chorus was invited to represent the U.S. at the International Music Educators’ Convention in Vienna. His Hartt choral groups were frequently selected to appear at American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) conventions throughout the U.S., and he conducted many All State and Divisional Festival Choruses. While at Hartt, he organized and hosted the first ACDA Eastern Division Convention.
One product of his involvement with the Connecticut Commission on the Arts was the Greater Hartford Youth Chorale, which Dr. Mack and his wife organized for the first annual Hartford Arts Festival. That initiative became an ongoing program which continued for 10 years, providing special musical opportunities for suburban and inner-city young people from 22 high schools in the Hartford area.
Dr. Mack has degrees in Music Education and choral conducting from the University of New York at Fredonia (bachelors) and from Columbia University (masters and doctorate).
