AMONG THE TRADITIONAL
EVENTS ON GRADUATION
WEEKEND is a carillon recital on Saturday evening at 7:30 p.m.,
which is open
to the public. Mr. Gouwens, Carillonneur of the Academies, will
continue that
tradition with a recital on May 31 at 7:30.
For these annual evening programs,
Mr. Gouwens makes a point of including pieces evocative of the night, or
especially atmospheric in character.
One of his specialties is making arrangements of piano pieces by Spanish
composers for carillon performance. Two such selections will be included
on
May 31, both by Barcelona composer Federico Mompou: “Young Girls in the
Garden” (one of Mompou’s most famous pieces), and a selection from “Charmes”
(referring to magic) entitled “For Inspiring Love.” The rich, exotic
harmonies of
both pieces are superbly effective on the carillon. This will be the first
performance
of these carillon arrangements.
Other selections particularly appropriate to the atmosphere include
“Carillon
at Twilight,” one of Mr. Gouwens’ own compositions, and a harp piece
by French
composer Jacques Ibert, “Evening on a Boat.”
The recital also will include improvisations on evening hymns, and
compositions by French-Canadian Emilien Allard, Dutch carillonneur Jacques
Maassen, and the “Sonata” for carillon by Belgian composer Jef van
Hoof. Jef van
Hoof was a prominent composer for the Belgian radio, and taught
composition at
the Royal Carillon School in Mechelen. The “Sonata” is the largest of
his carillon
compositions, and a rich example of the Belgian romantic genre of carillon
composition.
The program will last approximately an hour. A tour will be offered
immediately following the recital for those interested in taking a close
look at the
carillon and seeing it in action. In the event of rain, but we know it won’t
rain on
Grad Weekend, the tower will be open DURING the recital.
For those lucky enough to be in Culver all summer, carillon
recitals also will
be presented on the following Saturdays at 4:00 p.m.: June 21 and 28; July
5, 12,
19, and 26; August 30; and October 11. The July 12 program will feature
noted
carillonneur and composer John Courter, from Berea College, Berea,
Kentucky.
Mr. Gouwens will play the remaining programs.
