  • News Releases

The Scripps College Music Department will host the Bessie Bartlett Frankel Chamber Music Festival, on Sunday, April 3, at 3:00 p.m. in Balch Auditorium, located at 10th and Columbia on the Scripps College campus. Soprano Jennifer Goltz, accompanied by ensemble “inauthentica,” will perform Arnold Schoenberg’s Pierrot Lunaire with works by Berg and Webern. This event is free and open to the public. For additional program information, please call the Scripps College Music Department at (909) 621-8280 or the Joint Music Department of the Claremont Colleges at (909) 607-3267.

The ensemble “inauthentica” is composed of Dorothy Stone, Gayle Blankenburg, Mark Menzies, Paula Fehrenbach, and Donald T. Foster. “Inauthentica” was formed in 2003 by a core group of players who had been performing together as members of Southwest Chamber Music. The ensemble is a chamber music collective whose goals are to provide insightful and engaging performances of contemporary music and also to perform works from the standard repertoire with the same sense of newness and discovery.

Soprano Jennifer Goltz specializes in the performance of new music, art song, and early cabaret. She has performed across the country with the Ann Arbor-based new music ensemble Brave New Works. In 1999, she performed Luciano Berio’s Circles with Klangforum Wien at the Salzburg Music Festival, at the invitation of the composer. As a student of Freda Herseth and Martin Katz, she has given celebrated performances of turn-of-the-century European art song and Arnold Schoenberg’s Pierrot lunaire. Ms. Goltz holds two master’s degrees in vocal performance and music theory from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She will receive her Ph.D. in music theory in December. She joined the music department at Scripps College in fall 2004.

Dorothy Stone, flutist, composer and conductor, has been active on the vanguard of the international contemporary music scene for over 20 years and has been consistently hailed for her virtuosic and persuasive interpretations of the latest literature. Ms. Stone is a founding member of the highly acclaimed California EAR Unit, Ensemble in Residence at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. She has performed as a soloist throughout the United States and Europe as well as for National Public Radio and WGBH’s Art of the States Program.

Pianist Gayle Blankenburg has been on the Scripps College faculty since 1980 and also teaches in the music departments of Pomona College and the Claremont Graduate University. She has performed much of the standard chamber music repertoire with members of major orchestras across the country, including members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra; he can be heard on numerous CD recordings of contemporary music. She was a student of Menahem Pressler (of the Beaux Arts Trio) at Indiana University.

Violinist Mark Menzies is one of New Zealand’s foremost musicians and has been resident in the U.S. since 1991. Performing a wide range of repertoire, he has an international career and is particularly known for performances of contemporary music. In addition to being professor of viola, violin, and chamber music at Cal Arts, he is first violinist of New York’s “Ensemble Sospeso.”

Cellist Paula Fehrenbach earned a Doctor of Musical Arts degree while studying with Lynn Harrell at the University of Southern California and subsequently joined the New World Symphony in Miami under the baton of Michael Tilson Thomas. Since her return to Southern California, she regularly performs with numerous orchestras in the area, and is on the faculty of Pasadena City College.

Clarinetist Donald Travis Foster serves as principal clarinetist of the Santa Barbara Symphony, acting principal clarinet of the Pasadena Symphony, assistant principal of the New West Symphony, and is the founding artistic director of Mládí. In addition, he frequently performs with the Las Vegas Philharmonic, San Diego Symphony, and the Los Angeles Opera Orchestra. He graduated from the University of Southern California, receiving his Master of Music degree, and is currently on the faculties of UC Riverside, Riverside Community College, and Mt. San Antonio College.
