Fiday, Composition Department Chair; Associate Professor of Composition, University of Cincinnati<br \/>\n&#8220;After Dick\u2019s passing I had some correspondence with my dear friend and fellow CU alum Charles Shadle, who remarked that &#8216;as a human being, Dick held the bar pretty high.&#8217; This to me sums it up perfectly. Especially as a young student, it is easy to assume that this particular combination of high standards, devotion, encouragement, inspiration, artistry, and above all humanity are common. They are not. These are in fact a rare, rare combination of traits, and Richard Toensing was a very rare and special kind of human being. Those of us who were fortunate enough to be taught by him, to play his music, make music with him and otherwise know him received a very unique gift. It\u2019s a gift I will carry with me the rest of my life, and which I now try my best to impart to my own<br \/>\nstudents.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Dream Fantasy Pavane<\/em> (2009)<br \/>\nChristina Jennings, flute; Matthew Dane, viola<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-376-9\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dream-Fantasy-Pavane.mp3?_=9\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dream-Fantasy-Pavane.mp3\">http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dream-Fantasy-Pavane.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p><em><br \/>\nSerene and Heavenly Bells<\/em> (Antiphony I) (2014) &#8211; world premiere<br \/>\nUniversity of Colorado Wind Symphony<br \/>\nDonald McKinney, conductor; Allan McMurray, conductor emeritus<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-376-10\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Serene-and-Heavenly-Bells.mp3?_=10\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Serene-and-Heavenly-Bells.mp3\">http:\/\/richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Serene-and-Heavenly-Bells.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faculty Tuesday: The Music of Richard Toensing Tuesday, March 31, 2015, 7:30 PM Grusin Hall, CU College of Music, Boulder Cherubic Hymn (2014) &#8211; world premiere University Singers, Gregory Gentry, conductor A Tribute to Richard Toensing By Steven Bruns, associate professor of music and currently Associate Dean for Graduate Studies at the University of Colorado&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-376","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/376","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=376"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/376\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":412,"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/376\/revisions\/412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.richardtoensing.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=376"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
