Neil B. Rolnick
http://www.neilrolnick.com
Neil Rolnick’s career since the late 1970s has spanned many areas of musical endeavor, often including unexpected and unusual combinations of materials and media. He has performed his music around the world, exploring forms as diverse as digital sampling, interactive multimedia, and traditional musical theater. Throughout the 1980s and ‘90s he was also responsible for the development of the first integrated electronic arts graduate and undergraduate programs in the US, at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s iEAR Studios, in Troy, NY. Rolnick’s innovation as an educator has been to bring together the commonality of artistic creation across many disciplines, and this has led to his varied work with filmmakers, writers, and video and media artists.
Though much of Rolnick’s work has been in areas which connect music and technology, and therefore considered in the realm of “experimental” music, his music has always been highly melodic and accessible. Whether working with electronic sounds, improvisation, or multimedia, his music has been characterized by critics as “sophisticated,” “hummable and engaging,” and as having “good senses of showmanship and humor.”
Commissions under way in 2007 include: The Economic Engine for the Chinese Central Conservatory of Music, to be premiered in Beijing in 2008; The Bridge for the Albany Symphony’s Dogs of Desire ensemble; and a set of orchestral songs for the Albany Symphony, with soloists Theo Bleckmann and Todd Reynolds.
In 2006 Rolnick completed the iFiddle Concerto for the American Composers Orchestra, with soloist Todd Reynolds, which was premiered in Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall in New York. In 2006 he also wrote Uptown Jump for the New York City based trio MAYA, and Segal’s Billboard for the Albany Symphony Orchestra’s Capital Heritage project. Also in 2006 Innova Recordings released his 13th CD, Digits, which received enthusiastic reviews in the New York Times and in Time Out New York. Rolnick appeared in both the 2005 and 2006 MusicAcoustica Festivals in Beijing, and at the 2005 International Conference on Applied and Creative Arts in Sarawak, Malyaysia. His composition projects since 2003, all with interactive computer processing, have included The Shadow Quartet, for the New York City string quartet Ethel, Fiddle Faddle, for violinist Todd Reynolds, Body Work for vocalist Joan La Barbara, Ambos Mundos for the Quintet of the Americas, Plays Well With Others for the Paul Dresher Ensemble, The Real Thief of Baghdad, for performance poet Tyrone Henderson, Digits for pianist Kathleen Supové, and Making Light of It (on texts by Philip Levine) for baritone Thomas Buckner.
From 1997-2001 Rolnick worked on The Rise & Fall of Isabella Rico, a musical theater work with Larry Beinhart. In 1995-96 Rolnick spent five months in Japan on a fellowship from the Asian Cultural Council. During 1994-95 Neil Rolnick created and premiered HomeGame, a full evening length performance work for actors, instruments, interactive video, and computer mediated story generation. In 1994, along with Albany Symphony Orchestra music director David Alan Miller, Rolnick was co-founder of the new “multimedia orchestra of the future,” Dogs of Desire.
Mr. Rolnick’s music appears on thirteen records and CDs, on the Innova, Deep Listening, Albany, Cuneiform, Bridge, O.O. Discs, Nonesuch, Centaur, CRI and 1750 Arch labels. He has received fellowships and grants from the Asian Cultural Council, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Fulbright Commission, the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, New York State CAPS, the Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust, the Alice M. Ditson Fund, the MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, the University of California, and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
Neil Rolnick was born in 1947, in Dallas, Texas. He earned a BA in English literature from Harvard College in 1969. He studied musical composition with Darius Milhaud at the Aspen Music School, with John Adams and Andrew Imbrie at the San Francisco Conservatory, and with Richard Felciano and Olly Wilson at UC Berkeley, where he earned a PhD in musical composition in 1980. He studied computer music at Stanford with John Chowning and James A. Moorer, and worked as a researcher at IRCAM in Paris, France, from 1977 to 1979. He currently is Professor of Music in the Arts Department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in Troy, NY, where he was Founding Director of the iEAR Studios.
