[ANPPOM-Lista] Fwd: [Smt-announce] Irna Priore, 1963-2014

Seg Jun 2 10:16:21 BRT 2014

Esta noticia é um choque de enorme tristeza. Conhecí e fui colega de Irna
Priore na Orquestra Sinfonica de Campinas e estivemos juntas no Encontro de
Teoria e Análise na UNESP em 2011, quando pudemos conversar sobre trabalhos
de Análise. Meu forte abraço a Tadeu Coelho e toda a família, desejando
paz!!

>> Dear theorists,
>>
>> I am saddened to report the passing of Dr. Irna Priore, my UNCG colleague
>> and friend.  Here is a tribute written by our fellow UNCG colleague
>> Elizabeth Keathley:
>>
>> *****
>>
>> Theorist, teacher, flutist, and tremendous human being Irna Priore passed
>> away peacefully at Wake Forest University Baptist Hospital in
>> Winston-Salem, North Carolina on 29 May 2014 after a heroic four-year
>> struggle against Hurthle cell thyroid cancer. She has been a tenured
>> Associate Professor of Music Theory at the University of North Carolina,
>> Greensboro, since 2011.
>>
>>
>> Irna Priore’s scholarly work addressed two important fields: music of the
>> post–World War II European avant garde, especially that of Luciano Berio,
>> and the popular music of her native Brazil. Her musical insights ranged
>> beyond musical structures to consider the subversive valences of ostensibly
>> apolitical music (Brazilian Bossa Nova), and her analyses revealed
>> vestigial serialism in Berio’s nominally post-serial compositions. Priore
>> was a prolific scholar, and her numerous works have appeared in such
>> journals as Theoria, Theory and Practice, Analytical Approaches to World
>> Music, and Indiana Theory Review. She served on several editorial boards,
>> including the AAWM journal, and as a peer reviewer for the Journal of
>> Schenkerian Studies, Journal of American Music, and others.
>>
>>
>> Priore received grants to conduct research at the Paul Sacher Foundation
>> in Basel, the International Institute of Darmstadt, RAI in Milan, Universal
>> Edition in Vienna, and IRCAM in Paris. She was offered a Fulbright to
>> collaborate on a history of IRCAM, but, alas, was too ill to accept. Other
>> accomplishments that gave her particular satisfaction, both in 2011, were
>> her delivery of the keynote speech at the international music theory
>> conference “II Encontro Internacional de Teoria e Análise,” in Brazil, and
>> the co-organization of a symposium and concert at UNCG on the music of
>> Luigi Nono, the Italian Serialists, and Musical Modernism, with the
>> participation of Nuria Schoenberg Nono.
>>
>>
>> After her education in flute performance in São Paolo and at CUNY Queens
>> College (MM 1990, DMA 1993), Irna Priore was a fellow at the Mannes
>> Institute for Advanced Studies in Music (2001) and received her PhD in
>> Music Theory from the University of Iowa with a Schenkerian dissertation on
>> “the continuous 5,” advised by Thomas Christensen and Lawrence Fritts. She
>> credited Christensen as “a great role model” to her. Prior to coming to
>> UNCG as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in 2005, Priore taught theory
>> and aural skills at the University of New Mexico and University of North
>> Carolina School of the Arts, and at summer sessions at the University of
>> Iowa. She was promoted to Associate Professor with permanent tenure at UNCG
>> in 2011.
>>
>>
>> A revered teacher with high expectations and a disarming demeanor, Irna
>> Priore received student ratings of instruction that her colleagues envied,
>> even as she encouraged and prompted students to excel in a field they
>> initially found foreign and irrelevant. A quiet but unwavering voice for
>> diversity in the department and in her discipline, she advocated for women
>> and minorities who had the talent and interest, but perhaps not earlier
>> encouragement or preparation. Her advocacy has helped change the face of
>> music theory; here is one example: one of Irna’s protégées, who entered the
>> MM Theory program against the advice of others, was the first to complete
>> the program in only two years and has gone on to a PhD program (which UNCG
>> does not offer) with a teaching assistantship. The department’s lecture
>> series the year she co-organized it was the most diverse to date, and she
>> gave a joint presentation on diversity in the field of Music Theory at the
>> Indianapolis meeting in 2010. Shortly before her final hospitalization,
>> Irna expressed her concern that others might not continue her advocacy for
>> women and minorities.
>>
>>
>> Irna always found time to cook for her friends and to serve her
>> community, including such distinct contributions as counseling victims of
>> domestic violence and coaching soccer. Her many friends and admirers
>> include not only her colleagues at UNCG and in music theory, but also a
>> loving circle of friends from her congregation: her spirited determination
>> throughout her numerous diagnostics, treatments, recoveries, and relapses
>> was buoyed by the love and prayers of her friends and their many acts of
>> kindness.
>>
>>
>> Irna Priore is survived by her spouse, Tadeu Coelho, Professor of Flute
>> at UNC School of the Arts; their son Lucas Coelho—Irna’s proudest
>> achievement—who has just completed his first year at MIT; her sister Nira
>> Priore Nouak, teacher of dance in Frankfurt, Germany; and her father,
>> Hercules Priore, architect of São Paolo.
>>
>>
>> There will be a Celebration of Life ceremony on Monday, 2 June 2014, 3:00
>> pm at Calvary Baptist Church 5000 Country Club Road Winston-Salem, North
>> Carolina.  Irna requested that, in lieu of flowers, friends and family make
>> memorial contributions to their choice of the Hispanic ministry of Calvary
>> Baptist Church, Calvary Baptist Day School, or a Music Theory Scholarship
>> in her name at UNCG.  A memorial scholarship fund has been established in
>> Irna's name to support students who are studying music theory at UNCG.
>> Please send checks made out to UNCG to: UNCG Advancement Services, PO Box
>> 26170, Greensboro, NC 27402-6170, and please indicate that it is for the
>> Dr. Irna Priore Memorial Scholarship Fund in Music Theory.
