Ludwig-Musser 2010 Concert Percussion Catalog AV8084 2010
Welcome to the world of Ludwig/Musser Concert Percussion. The instruments in this catalog represent the finest quality and sound in percussion instruments today from a company that has been making instruments and accessories in the USA for decades. Ludwig is “The Most famous Name in Drums” since 1909 and Musser is “First in Class” for mallet percussion since 1948. Ludwig & Musser aren’t just brand names, they are men’s names. William F. Ludwig Sr. & William F. Ludwig II were gifted percussionists and astute businessmen who were innovators in the world of percussion. Clair Omar Musser was also a visionary mallet percussionist, composer, designer, engineer and leader who founded the Musser Company to be the American leader in mallet instruments. Both companies originated in the Chicago area. They joined forces in the 1960’s and originated the concept of “Total Percussion.” With our experience as a manufacturer, we have a dedicated staff of craftsmen and marketing professionals that are sensitive to the needs of the percussionist. Several on our staff are active percussionists today and have that same passion for excellence in design, quality and performance as did our founders. We are proud to be an American company competing in a global economy. Musser Marimbas, Xylophones, Chimes, Bells, & Vibraphones are available in a wide range of sizes and models to completely satisfy the needs of beginners, schools, universities and professionals. With a choice of hammered copper, smooth copper or fiberglass bowls, Ludwig Timpani always deliver the full rich sound that generations of timpanists have come to expect from Ludwig. -

The Commissioned Flute Choir Pieces Presented By
THE COMMISSIONED FLUTE CHOIR PIECES PRESENTED BY UNIVERSITY/COLLEGE FLUTE CHOIRS AND NFA SPONSORED FLUTE CHOIRS AT NATIONAL FLUTE ASSOCIATION ANNUAL CONVENTIONS WITH A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FLUTE CHOIR AND ITS REPERTOIRE DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yoon Hee Kim Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2013 D.M.A. Document Committee: Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Dr. Russel C. Mikkelson Dr. Charles M. Atkinson Karen Pierson Copyright by Yoon Hee Kim 2013 Abstract The National Flute Association (NFA) sponsors a range of non-performance and performance competitions for performers of all ages. Non-performance competitions are: a Flute Choir Composition Competition, Graduate Research, and Newly Published Music. Performance competitions are: Young Artist Competition, High School Soloist Competition, Convention Performers Competition, Flute Choirs Competitions, Professional, Collegiate, High School, and Jazz Flute Big Band, and a Masterclass Competition. These competitions provide opportunities for flutists ranging from amateurs to professionals. University/college flute choirs perform original manuscripts, arrangements and transcriptions, as well as the commissioned pieces, frequently at conventions, thus expanding substantially the repertoire for flute choir. The purpose of my work is to document commissioned repertoire for flute choir, music for five or more flutes, presented by university/college flute choirs and NFA sponsored flute choirs at NFA annual conventions. Composer, title, premiere and publication information, conductor, performer and instrumentation will be included in an annotated bibliography format. A brief history of the flute choir and its repertoire, as well as a history of NFA-sponsored flute choir (1973–2012) will be included in this document. -

Korngold, Erich Wolgang
Erich Wolgang Korngold (1897-1957) Violin Concerto A clear understanding of Erich Korngold comes magically into focus when one acknowledges the profound similarities with Gustav Mahler. This prolific prodigy, composer, arranger, and conductor, like Mahler before him, did it all. Korngold was born in Brno, in modern day Czechoslovakia - a German influenced city of the Austro-Hapsburg empire, much like near by Iglau had been for Mahler. Both of them were born into Jewish families, struggling with their familial roots and the confusing national identity of the region. The two are inextricably linked to this formative soil, and in the very rich artistic environment of 1875-1925. Though not exact contemporaries they did meet, a young Erich was introduced by his father to Gustav in 1906 – the latter at his zenith within Viennese music circles and the former being heralded as the next genius. The adopted Viennese pedigree of both composers permeates their world view and their music, but Korngold’s acceptance in Vienna was much less complicated than Mahler’s. Dr. Julius Korngold, Erich’s father had stepped into the shoes of the fabled Edouard Hanslick, the great critic of the Neue Freie Press ( New Free Press). The ins and outs of Viennese musical circles were not a closed door at all – as they had been for Mahler. After being duly impressed with the young boy, Mahler suggested that Alexander von Zemlinsky be Korngold’s teacher, which though there were other influences, remained the only official teacher/pupil relationship, and it didn’t last very long. Julius, in his connected position was also able to privately publish three very early works in 1909 - with Erich at the ripe old age of 12. -

Innovative String Program Expands to Five Nashua Schools!
Innovative String Program Expands to Five Nashua Schools! By Carol Marine Have you heard of, or heard, the Sinfonietta Strings of Greater Nashua? If not you are in for a treat. Sinfonietta Strings is an innovative musical program in partnership with the United Way of Greater Nashua and the Nashua School District. Entering its fifth season, the Sinfonietta Strings offers students from all economic and cultural backgrounds an opportunity to learn to play a string instrument. Because of its continued success, this year the Sinfonietta has expanded to five elementary schools and added cello lessons and a third advanced ensemble. Sinfonietta Strings is a comprehensive string program offered to students in grades three and up. Currently 120 students are enrolled in Sinfonietta Strings. Sinfonietta members have the opportunity to collaborate with other players through weekly group lessons, concert preparation and a summer camp. Developed by Nashua’s own Nancy Goodwin, Sinfonietta Strings is not your run of the mill, check the box music lesson. In addition to becoming proficient in a string instrument, students experience an emotional and creative outlet as they develop an ear, learn the language of music and the art of collaboration in making music. A day in the musical life of a Sinfonietta Strings member may include a lesson with a professional violinist, violist and now a cellist. These two young cellists, Allison Frye and Logan Lovett, are learning proper cello posture at their first lesson this fall. Each week students gather for small group lessons which include individual instruction as well as the more complex but fun ensemble playing.
