The 20th century saw significant changes in the genre\, with the influence of atonality\, serialism\, folk music\, and popular music. \nArt song was born as an intimate genre\, written to be performed in people’s homes — music for a room\, for a gathered circle of friends\, for a voice close enough to hear every detail. It continues to be a vibrant and diverse genre\, and this program lives in that tension — between the wild and the tended — tracing the art song from its Romantic roots to music written in our own time. \nProgram to include works by Clara Schumann\, Hugo Wolf\, Arnold Schoenberg\, Francis Poulenc\, John Frantzen and more. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n \n \n \n \n \n \n September 24\, 20267:30 p.m. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Entry \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nBrooks Concert Hall URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/wild-tended-mary-mackenzie-soprano-matthew-jaskot-piano/ LOCATION:Brooks Concert Hall\, 1 College St.\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Department of Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/mackenzie-jaskot-web.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261006T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261006T193000 DTSTAMP:20260723T131933 CREATED:20260722T193831Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260722T193832Z UID:6648-1791315000-1791315000@priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu SUMMARY:Music Faculty Showcase Recital DESCRIPTION:Department of Music\n \n \n \n \n \n Faculty Showcase Recital\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nThis program goes beyond showcasing virtuosity for its own sake\, inviting listeners into a series of musical conversations.

The brilliant colors of fall in New England gradually give way to bare branches and longer nights\, creating a landscape that is stark\, reflective\, and mysterious. \nThe program begins in the warmth of the season with works such as Julie Giroux’s Bookmarks from Japan and Percy Grainger’s Irish Tune from County Derry. Eric Whitacre’s October captures the character of autumn itself\, evoking the feelings of the season through rich musical colors. \nAs the evening unfolds\, the music moves toward twilight\, mystery\, and darkness.

Moriarty\, M.D. ’57 Visiting Scholars Program\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nMorton Feldman’s extraordinary late solo piano work Triadic Memories (1981) is a study in slowly evolving repetitions over the 75-minute duration. The composer described the piece as “the biggest butterfly in captivity.” Exact repetitions\, subtle variations\, shifting patterns and fresh new materials are interwoven. Materials are constantly recontextualized\, using different voicing and registers\, changing one note of a chord\, juxtaposing new harmonies—always changing and always soft. The piece is not outwardly triadic (the harmonies are built entirely of seconds\, sevenths and augmented fourths)\, but triads emerge through the hazy resonance. Some materials happen only once\, while others are repeated\, varied and recontextualized. The listener is taken on a journey of deep concentration and reflection. \nPianist & composer Amy Williams has been connected to Feldman’s music since her childhood—her father and Feldman were close colleagues at the University of Buffalo. She has recorded and performed his music for nearly three decades. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n \n \n \n \n \n \n November 12\, 20267:30 p.m. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Entry  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nBrooks Concert Hall URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/morton-feldmans-triadic-memories-amy-williams-piano/ LOCATION:Brooks Concert Hall\, 1 College St.\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Department of Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/amy-williams-morty-feldman-web.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261117T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261117T193000 DTSTAMP:20260723T131933 CREATED:20260722T195021Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260722T195021Z UID:6659-1794943800-1794943800@priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu SUMMARY:Chamber Music Recital DESCRIPTION:Department of Music\n \n \n \n \n \n Chamber Music Recital\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nChamber music is played by small ensembles of two or more players such as duos\, trios\, quartets\, etc.\, where every part is played by a single performer.
