Globe as "A composer of wide intellectual curiosity", who summons "textures of efficient richness, delicate and deep all at once." His music is intertwined with both modern and ancient literary traditions, from Plato to Thomas Mann, and is also deeply effected by time spent in the deserts of Arizona and New Mexico. These streams of influence have led to a music that considers ancestral concepts of time, appropriations of indigenous cultures into surrealism, impressionism and post-modernism, and the connections between Ancient, native and modern mythologies. Aylward's work has been performed internationally by a range of ensembles and soloists. Both as a pianist and as a director of the Etchings Festival of Contemporary Music, Aylward has supported new music of all kinds through commissions and performances. Awards and fellowships include those from the Guggenheim Foundation, the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Radcliffe Institute at Harvard University, the Koussevitzky Commission from the Library of Congress, the Fromm Music Foundation, the Fulbright Foundation (Germany), the DAAD (residency in Berlin) the MacDowell Colony, Tanglewood, the Aspen Music School, the Atlantic Center for the Arts, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the International Society for Contemporary Music, and many others. John holds composition degrees (MFA, PhD) from Brandeis University and a degree in piano performance (BM) from the University of Arizona. Currently, John lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and teaches music composition at Clark University. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1513118774667-2UO6BO0RUCTDU9VKA84L/Colin_HS_1.jpg The Etchings Festival - Colin Gee Colin Gee is the Etchings Festival Movement and Dance Director.

She has been awarded the Charles Ives Fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a Bogliasco Fellowship, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Radcliffe Fellowship, the 2008 Rome Prize, the Charles Ives Fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Zürich Opera House’s Teatro Minimo, and the Picasso-Mirò Medal, among others. Gee's series Mouthpieces uses non-traditional vocal techniques, devoid of semantic language, to construct intricate and subtle patterns of a diverse array of vocal sounds. In the Mouthpieces, the voice is used as an instrument of sound production rather than as a vehicle of identity. Linguistic meaning is not the voice’s goal. The construction of the vocal text is often based on linguistic structure—vowel-consonant formation and the principle of the allophone—and is relatively quiet, with a high percentage of breath. The Mouthpieces began as solo vocal works, devoid of semantic text or language and notated with the International Phonetic Alphabet. In the Mouthpiece series, the voice is used as an instrument of sound production rather than as a vehicle of identity. Gee's works are taught in the composition and musicology programs of many leading universities such as MIT, University of Pennsylvania, Smith College, and Mills College, and she has lectured at Harvard, UC Berkeley, Dartmouth and Wellesley. Her debut portrait CD, Mouthpieces was released in January 2014 on the col legno label in Vienna and received a warm and thoughtful review in Gramophone, the premier review magazine for classical music. The review stated, “Erin Gee clearly has a contribution to make,” and mentioned the “tangible virtuosity of Gee’s formidable vocal execution, as well as the comparable (if relatively more orthodox) finesse of the instrumental component.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1513122794603-SJ045OM28K3ABPKLIK4N/Screen+Shot+2017-12-12+at+4.51.10+PM.png The Etchings Festival - Philippe Hurel Philippe Hurel is widely regarded as one of the great French composers of his generation. His honors include the Pensionnaire à la Villa Médicis à Rome (1986-88), the Förderpreis der Siemens-Stiftung in Munich 1995, the Prix des Compositeurs from SACEM (2002), and the Prix de la Meilleure Création de l'Année from SACEM 2003. Mr. Hurel worked as a music researcher at IRCAM in 1985-86 and 1988-89. He taught composition at IRCAM from 1997-2001. He also served as composer-in-residence to both the Arsenal de Metz and the Philharmonie de Lorraine from 2000-02. With Pierre André Valade he founded the new music ensemble Court-circuit in 1990 and has since served as its artistic director. Since 2013 he teaches composition at the Conservatoire national superieur de musique et de danse de Lyon. Mr. Hurel's music has been performed by numerous orchestras and ensembles and by conductors such as by Pierre Boulez, David Robertson, Ludovic Morlot, Tito Ceccherini, Jonathan Nott, Esa Pekka Salonen, Kent Nagano, Pierre-André Valade, François Xavier Roth, Christian Eggen, Lorraine Vaillancourt, Reinbert de Leeuw, Bernard Kontarsky and many others.

A historic landmark at the crossroads of the Santiago de Compostela, Europe’s most famous pilgrimage route, Auvillar has had it’s share of invaders and conquerers over the centuries, from the crusaders to the Count of Armagnac to the Kings of Navarre. In the Twelfth Century, the city became the capital and property of the Count of Armagnac. The village became part of France under Henri IV. The region is now known for its viticulture, its hundreds of churches, monasteries and gites, and its proximity to the prehistoric caves of the Vézère valley. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1540349985864-VYUBV9ML68Y52X52PK8Y/nientefortelogo.png The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1627212957093-GBSURN7UIPKE4W8SLR66/Nat_16x9FINAL.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1611011109827-6D1N35JGFP7V9UM666P8/geoff-theme-photo.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580779588933-3BZQKDFAJQ1792DU3DWH/Screen+Shot+2020-02-03+at+8.26.05+PM.png The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1611010716784-QMDROSGA85XXYDQYKQWD/emi-ferguson-flute-e1564790886348.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580774638136-981W3SLJUCAYD5NJW5IU/hassan.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1611013395070-0AK25ORC6F68J9CAY0KI/Barret+Ham.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580253291627-2S0E5ISYAM1MX4ZZLKWF/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-01-28%2Bat%2B2.03.29%2BPM.jpg The Etchings Festival - . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580250067655-2NC4WDW276OJ1Q3CGMOT/foliage-top-2019.jpg The Etchings Festival - Etchings 2020 Hudson Valley https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580791532988-W7Q5O9P1FEXAWQ05SEA5/DRBQ4118.JPG The Etchings Festival Etchings Composers’ Rehearsals, 2019 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1612714407836-P0MQA7NS094UYHUUZSFC/5x7_trevor_weston_MG_6483.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580835875705-5MO2Q5W033P3BLHO5O43/Davy.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580792963637-VT33ZMXTJHM2WB266O41/brodymartin-square.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580787062588-CHURU2WLGPCJGRZUF1DJ/VFLK0395.JPG The Etchings Festival Etchings 2019 Woodwind Workshop https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1611009687963-2L180J0PLBRSRED86GV3/Emily+Koh.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1508883413188-S2MZGLRBHS6GNG2RAFG2/Etchings-6+2.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1513750567524-GL4BIDTEAKQ9AL1H7U0H/auvillar-from-across-the-garonne.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1544235380850-0QO5JTDHZOHMD3XRVRUF/Etchings+2018.png The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1544387536299-5CK02QG4TLST164RZW7J/Etchings-2-625x416.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580781132751-OXCKJ18BKA8I9IPF1QXL/foliage-top-2019.jpg The Etchings Festival https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580786835444-4SVSPH06PBGF5179B39V/IMG_1247+2.jpg The Etchings Festival https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/works daily 0.75 2021-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1540345696521-ZIFRL5KX9GUS12GRCAMS/ZWISCHEN-LEBEN-UND-TOD_5.jpg Attend https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1540355335204-ZXEJPZ0E88HZE9O83DZA/nientefortelogo.png Attend https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1540359813173-4S1FTZWZG8347W8KP52R/A-2826390-1466877381-6891.jpeg.jpg Attend https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1570740199075-XXG6ZOVCAFU83LSZ02QM/quick%2Bspread%2B3.jpg Attend https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1570754902382-RJU395QL2G2OW6PAQNU9/DSC01637.JPG Attend Etchings 2010.

John's desire to create a positive environment for emerging composers where they would develop their craft through frank, creative interactions with peers and mentors met the VCCA's wish to have an international program that would further their arts advocacy mission. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1508820855067-FYE1CWZEEPMER112XRQ4/etchings-7+2.jpg Mission and History The opportunity to cultivate your art in a community of other passionate artists is becoming increasingly rare. To be influenced by fellow creatives while being mentored by some of the great composers of our time and the best interpreters of modern music: that’s what the Etchings Festival provides. Now, we are in our 10th year, and we've added a movement and dance program. We continue to grow and we're proud of the talent we’ve cultivated, the incredible amount of music we’ve premiered and the good will we have brought into the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1508820978279-DT1N069AQEZ5C0LT1SRD/auvillar-sunset-ii.jpg Mission and History The Etchings Festival is set in Auvillar, France, between Bordeaux and Toulouse. The Midi-Pyrenees region is secluded and has been preserved through the centuries. Concerts at the festival take place in a 14th Century chapel, renovated and acoustically sublime. The village of Auvillar is deeply invested in the arts, and audiences come from across the region to attend festival concerts. Auvillar is on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route and so often traveling pilgrims will attend festival events. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1508872402314-HRDVH3RCAESHR3LE4APY/the-garonne-in-auvillar.jpg Mission and History https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/new-page-64 daily 0.75 2018-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1544233465228-DA500CD65OIDT1S5VZ8S/John+Headshot.png 2019 Composer Faculty - John Aylward John Aylward's music has been widely recognized as some of the most creative, engaging and inventive of his generation. The Boston Globe has described Aylward as a composer of "wide intellectual curiosity" who "summon(s) textures of efficient richness, delicate and deep all at once". And among his American Academy of Award citations, he is recognized for "harmonies that always move, always inflect" and " zones of suspended motion and otherworldly calm". A pianist first, Aylward infuses his compositions with a technical virtuosity taken from the keyboard, and his music demands a kind of attention to detail that rewards in its subtleties and possibilities for expression and interpretation, connecting his work to the a wide expanse of traditions. Born in the Southwest US, his work often takes on the concerns related to that landscape and culture: ancestral concepts of time, appropriations of indigenous cultures into surrealism and impressionism, and the connections between native traditions and Greek and Roman mythology. As Director of the Ecce Ensemble, Aylward has performed and produced hundreds of premieres and performances of modern works from all aesthetic corners. Ecce has also functioned as a kind of laboratory in which Aylward has been able to explore larger and more expansive work through rigorous rehearsals, workshops and the confidence of performers he has collaborated with over many years. Recent awards and fellowships include those from the John S. Guggenheim Foundation, the American Academy of Arts and Letters (the Walter Hinrichsen Award and the Goddard Lieberson Fellowship, the Radcliffe Institute at Harvard University, the Koussevitzky Commission from the Library of Congress, The Fromm Foundation at Harvard, and from the Fulbright Foundation (Berlin). John lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts and teaches music composition at Clark University. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1544233332872-FXKY997UK0AMZWUSUD0R/KAB150521420.jpg 2019 Composer Faculty - Francesco Filidei Born in Pisa in 1973, Francesco Filidei graduated from the Conservatory of Florence and the Paris Conservatoire winning several first prizes.

She studied in Helsinki, Fribourg and Paris At IRCAM, Saariaho developed techniques of computer-assisted composition and acquired fluency in working on tape and with live electronics. This experience influenced her approach to writing for orchestra, with its emphasis on the shaping of dense masses of sound in slow transformations. Significantly, her first orchestral piece, Verblendungen (1984), involves a gradual exchange of roles and character between orchestra and tape. And even the titles of her, linked, pair of orchestral works, Du Cristal (1989) and …à la Fumée (1990) suggest her preoccupation with colour and texture. Although much of her catalogue comprises chamber works, she has turned increasingly to larger forces and broader structures, such as Orion (2004), Laterna Magica (2008), Circle Map (2008). The detailed notation using harmonics, microtonaly and detailed continuum of sound extending from pure tone to unpitched noise – all features found in one of her most frequently performed works, Graal Théâtre for violin and orchestra (1994). Her catalogue also includes Aile du songe (2001), Notes on Light (2006), D’OM LE VRAI SENS (2010), Maan Varjot (2014). In 2015, Gerald Finley and Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Gustavo Dudamel, premier True Fire for baritone and orchestra. From later nineties, Saariaho has turned to opera, with outstanding success: L’Amour de Loin (2000), Adrian Mater (2006), Emilie (2010) and the oratorio La Passion de Simone (2006). Her opera Only the Sound Remains was premiered in March 2016 at The Dutch National Opera. Other performances will follow in Paris, Helsinki, Madrid and Toronto. Saariaho has claimed the major composing awards: Grawemeyer Award, Wihuri Prize, Nemmers Prize, Sonning Prize, Polar Music Prize. In 2015 she was the judge of the Toru Takemitsu Composition Award. Kaija Saariaho’s harp concerto Trans was premiered in August 2016 by Xavier de Maistre and The Tokyo Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Ernest Martinez-Izquierdo at the Suntory Hall, Tokyo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1544235222093-LRGRWB9PYI84MRLQIRX7/C85oc7Ae98VktrxabfLwxuGD.jpeg 2019 Composer Faculty https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/ensemble daily 0.75 2018-11-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1543341712266-VR5H7Q59RA4CQ6QDXNZ0/john.jpg Ensemble John Aylward, Artistic Director https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1543349304613-GO2DKYEKO9JTFRZ25IQZ/hassan.jpg Ensemble https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1543343929989-7S7H4IB2Q200689OJV2T/Laine+3.jpg Ensemble https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1543342013862-MKN4BLHIRZC5H91N1G6D/Jean+Philippe+Wurtz.png Ensemble Jean-Philippe Wurtz, Conductor Musical Director, Etchings Festival https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/new-page-26 daily 0.75 2020-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1573005004047-6CT7WCD2ILX1T286DJGQ/Leroux-1024x684.jpg Calendar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1573004929505-6L02D57SBGTII4GHJ66J/Laine+3.jpg Calendar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1573004820956-TYM49L7ZB9DTSDIENS2J/quick+spread+2.jpg Calendar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1573004896134-DOVSEDB5625PHILCKVB3/Toshio+.jpg Calendar https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/2020-festival-programs daily 0.75 2020-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580786598056-WTKQP6SIIZJFZFY2PFOK/Laine.jpg 2020 Experimental Opera Program Artist | Director, Laine Rettmer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580786295227-GR9B3RGV3X4JQ58RMQWV/1533821_10152175633394630_508307333_n+2.jpg 2020 Experimental Opera Program https://colin-gee-wf4p.squarespace.com/etchings-2020-experimental-opera-program daily 0.75 2020-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5977dee2db29d664b6fe1dc1/1580263294395-OGKWIWFPXQFX3W5GOC3Z/Laine.jpg Etchings 2020.
