During the final week of the fall semester, the AiRES Saxophone Quartet (Rachel Kininger '12, Allyce Barron '11, Erika Friedman '12, and Sara Emery '12), traveled to local retirement centers and performed holiday classics for the residents to enjoy. This "Christmas Tour" included performances at Bridges-Cornell Heights, Oak Hill Manor, the Beech Tree Care Center, and the Lakeside Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Freshman Eric Troiano joined AiRES on three of their concerts. This act of community outreach is the main focus of the Ithaca College Saxophone Society, a new organization formed in Fall 2008. The ICSS plans to continue implementing outreach programs, including student clinics at local public schools, providing low-cost lessons, and performing for charity functions.

The society will be presenting a saxophone concert on Saturday, February 21 at 3:00 p.m. in Ford Auditorium. This concert, which will feature music for saxophone quartets and a large saxophone ensemble, is free and open to the public.

Two Messiaen Masterworks

Contributed by Erik Kibelsbeck on 02/03/09 

Pianist Charis Dimaras will join with fellow pianist Karl Lutchmayer and soprano Linda Larson in early February for two free recitals featuring the music of Olivier Messiaen.

On Thursday, Feb. 5, the two pianists will perform “Visions d’Amen” at 7 p.m. in Ford Hall in the James J. Whalen Center for Music. Written in 1943 for the composer and his second wife Yvonne Loriod, who was also a pianist, the piece explores the mystical four meanings of the word “Amen,” which are: the Amen uttered by the Creator in creating, the Amen of obedience to the divine will, the Amen of longing for union with God, and the Amen of the eternal consummation of everything in Paradise.

On Friday, Feb. 13, at 7 p.m. in the Hockett Family Recital Hall in the Whalen Center, soprano Linda Larson and Dimaras will perform Messiaen’s song cycle “Songs of Earth and Heaven.” The program will also feature Cipullo’s 2001 song cycle “Late Summer” as well as the music of Schubert, Schoenberg, and Debussy.
