Berlioz - Nyc In 1940
Ted Jasper karate kicks as he enters the music scene under the new alias, Berlioz. At this point, I pretty much accept with open hands anything that Jasper makes but when it comes to the latest, "nyc in 1940," my arms are wide open!

Copland seldom made carbons copies of his outgoing correspondence. The few periods in his life for which the Copland Collection is rich in carbon copies are the brief intervals when he had a secretary: in 1943 while working on the film The North Star; during his South American tour in 1947; in the fall of 1958 when he was staying in London and presumably was provided with a secretary by his publisher, Boosey & Hawkes. Because they were obviously dictated to a secretary, these letters have the flavor of Copland's post-1940 correspondence but are not particularly trenchant, lacking the distinctive qualities that came forth when Copland himself sat down to write.
Serge, Natalie, and Olga Koussevitzky (Koussevitzky Collection). Serge Koussevitzky, conductor of the Boston Symphony from 1924 to 1949, was the first performer to champion Copland's music in America and remained a supporter of Copland (and of many other American composers) until his death. Copland, in turn, was a major help to Koussevitzky from 1940 on in the running of the Berkshire Music Festival at Tanglewood. Copland's letters to Koussevitzky's first wife, Natalie, are, for the most part, social; his letters to Koussevitzky's second wife, Olga (Olga Naumoff, Koussevitzky's secretary, until 1947), concern the running of Tanglewood. Copland's Third Symphony is dedicated "To the memory of Natalie Koussevitzky."
As the composer of several film scores, Copland was frequently asked to lecture or write about composing for the movies. In his discussions on the subject, Copland speaks not only about his experiences and the scores he wrote, but about other film composers and working in Hollywood. In "Film Music", a lecture given at the Museum of Modern Art Film Library in 1940, Copland briefly describes Hollywood and the mysterious nature of film music. He talks about the music he wrote for the film Of Mice and Men; four film composers, Eric Korngold, Max Steiner, Alfred Newman, and Herbert Stoddard; and some of their film scores. By the time he gave the lecture "Film Talk" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1971, Copland's credentials as a film composer included six feature films and two documentaries. On that occasion, excerpts from three features (Something Wild, The Red Pony, and The Heiress) and one documentary (The City) were screened as he commented on how music may help a film and how one sets music to a film.
In 1938 Laderoute was soloist with the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir in Berlioz' Requiem. He was a soloist with the Dessoff Choirs in New York in 1940 and gave a recital at the Ladies' Morning Musical Club in Montreal the same year. He appeared with the orchestras of Chicago 1939-40, Detroit (Elijah) in 1940, and Toronto in 1940, and sang again with the TSO in the Canadian premiere of Mahler's Das Lied von der Erde in 1945. He was Jacquino in the 1944 NBC SO broadcast of Fidelio under Arturo Toscanini; the performance was released later as a recording (2-RCA Victor LM-6025). At the Berkshire Music Center in Tanglewood, Mass, he appeared in the title roles of the US premieres of two major operas: Britten's Peter Grimes in 1946, and Mozart's Idomeneo in 1947.

Olin Downes in the New York Times wrote:"At its best - indeed on its average - this orchestra is irrefutable testimony to and confirmation of Stokowski's realization, which he came to well in advance of his critics, that in America today there is an immense and growing number of young orchestral players, exceptionally gifted and superbly trained and so accomplished that they can be assembled and in the space of two weeks of rehearsing by their present leader made into a flexible, sensitively fused instrumental ensemble." 76194122 May All-American Youth OrchestraAlbany, New Yorkconcert 194123 May All-American Youth OrchestraSpringfield, Massachusettsconcert included as an encore:Roy Harris (1898-1979): Folksong Symphony: one of the Interludes (1940)194124 May All-American Youth OrchestraKleinhands Music Hall, Buffalo, New YorkPaul Creston early in his career concert included:Paul Creston (1906-1985): Symphony no 1 opus 20 (1940): Scherzo movement 194126 May All-American Youth OrchestraToronto, Canadaconcert 194127 May All-American Youth OrchestraSyria Mosque, Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaBach: Toccata and Fugue, D minor, BWV 565 - Stokowski transcriptionBeethoven: Symphony no 5 in C minor, Op 67Henry Cowell (1897-1965): Ancient Desert Drone (1940)Wagner: Tristan und Isolde Stokowski Symphonic Synthesis: Act 1 Prelude,Act II Liebesnacht and Act III Liebestod conclusionEncore: Weber: Invitation to the Dance opus 65 - Stokowski transcription
