| Stucky was a leading scholar on the life and work of Polish composer Witold Lutosławski. The bulk of this series is Stucky’s research on Lutosławski’s works, which include analyses of the pitch, structure, and compositional techniques. Some notable materials are Stucky and Lutosławski's correspondence, as well as Stucky’s PhD dissertation annotated by Lutosławkski. There is also correspondence between Stucky and Krystyan Tarnawska, another eminent Lutosławski scholar from Poland, that dates from 1983 to 1994. Stucky was a frequent participant at conferences about Lutosławski around the world; this series includes his lectures, other scholars’ papers, and publicity from these events. Also represented are reviews of his book Lutosławski and His Music, which won the 1981 ASCAP Deems Taylor Prize. Some correspondence and publications are in Polish. | |||||||||||||

| Stucky was the composer-in-residence for the Los Angeles Philharmonic from 1988
through 2009, the longest such relationship between a composer and an American
orchestra. Under conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen, the Los Angeles Philharmonic made an
effort to program living composers and increase audience outreach. As
composer-in-residence, Stucky gave pre-concert lectures, known as Upbeat Live. His
annotated Upbeat Live scripts are located in this series, and the audio examples
he compiled for the lectures have been transferred to MBRS. Stucky also conducted
the New Music Ensemble and directed the Green Umbrella new music series, created
by Ernest Fleischmann, the orchestra’s longtime general manager, in the 1980s.
Green Umbrella programs can be found in this series and in the Programs series. In addition to composer-in-residence, Stucky served in an advisory role to the Los Angeles Philharmonic administration. Consequently, there are planning documents and schedules for several seasons beginning in 1993 and ending in 2006. There are also files devoted to the orchestra’s projects, such as “Surprising Century” celebrating the end of the 20th century and concert series devoted to the works of specific twentieth century composers. Additionally, there are a small number of newspaper articles related to the construction and opening of Walt Disney Concert Hall, which opened in 2003. |

| BOX 69-72 | Teaching Materials, 1980-2015 | ||||||||||||
| This series documents Stucky’s work as music faculty and as a guest lecturer at
various residencies, festivals, and universities. These items include oral and
written exams he compiled as an advisor and committee panelist for graduate music
students. They also include Stucky’s class notes and examples he used to teach
music history and theory courses focusing mostly on twentieth and twenty-first
century music. While there are several courses represented, there are no class
notes for a complete semester. Outside of his duties as a professor, Stucky was a frequent guest lecturer. The second file unit contains his lecture scripts and musical examples. Although the musical examples are brief excerpts from larger works, they are evidence of his deep familiarity with modern classical music. He gave four lectures as the recipient of the Ernest Bloch Professorship at the University of California, Berkeley, in 2003. These annotated scripts comprise the bulk of this file unit. Topics covered in these lectures were the current state of classical music and compositional process. Stucky also lectured on his own works. Of note is a lecture about his Second Concerto for Orchestra, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 2005, and another on August 4, 1964, which was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Classical Composition in 2013. |
