On June 5, 2016, the Interlochen Arts Academy Orchestra and Academy Dance Company will perform at Lincoln Center during the 2016 NY Phil Biennial. This remarkable opportunity will allow students to work with one of the world’s most prestigious orchestras—the New York Philharmonic. Interlochen is the only high school selected to participate in the Biennial.

__


what light fear blanches 
the alarm
the photographic
hours delay waking until 
sleep again

concede it to a grey- 
not-love, the morning calls 
with no promise 
to refresh

& weighting is beyond 
this hour, each word 
a serious intent, an 
object pain

there are only so many 
Messages of Love
I can send to you
while we are both awake 
the ocean becomes dark 
we trade symbols of hearts 
freely and in colour

— Caitlin Doherty

CREATURE (excerpt)

Workshop Session Day 2

A simple exercise in singing the intervals of the 11-limit tonality diamond in the context of background harmonic series chords and a moving fundamental.  The bottom note in the melody line stays the same while the top line moves up gradually, first leaping, then stepping.  The solfege system for singing along is as follows:

12/11: fu-so, fu-so
11/10: mi-fu, mi-fu
10/9: re-mi, re-mi
9/8: do-re, do-re
8/7: ta-do, ta-do
7/6: so-ta, so-ta
6/5: mi-so, mi-fu-so
11/9: re-fu, re-mi-fu
5/4: do-mi, do-re-mi
14/11: fu-ta, fu-so-ta
9/7: ta-re, ta-do-re
4/3: so-do, so-ta-do
11/8: do-fu, do-re-mi-fu
7/5: mi-ta, mi-fu-so-ta
10/7: ta-mi, ta-do-re-mi
16/11: fu-do, fu-so-ta-do
3/2: do-so, do-re-mi-fu-so
14/9: re-ta, re-mi-fu-so-ta
11/7: ta-fu, ta-do-re-mi-fu
8/5: mi-do, mi-fu-so-ta-do
18/11: fu-re, fu-so-ta-do-re
5/3: so-mi, so-ta-do-re-mi
12/7: ta-so, ta-do-re-mi-fu-so
7/4: do-ta, do-re-mi-fu-so-ta
16/9: re-do, re-mi-fu-so-ta-do
9/5: mi-re, mi-fu-so-ta-do-re
20/11: fu-mi, fu-so-ta-do-re-mi
11/6: so-fu, so-ta-do-re-mi-fu
