[ ?,8 7 ] THE ORCHESTRA VISITS CLEVELAND Giving concerts last week in Roches- ter, Buffalo, Ann Arbor, Toledo, Cleve- land, and Pittsburgh, the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra was received in each city with great acclaim. Herbert Elwell described the Cleveland concert (of De- cember 9) in the Cleveland Plain Dealer: "This was the first time in many years music lovers here have had the pleasure of a visit from this veteran organization, headed by one of the most dynamic figures in the world of music. They were not slow to show their appreciation. If there was a vacant seat anywhere in the hall, it would have been hard to discover. And this throng, thrilled by a program of constantly mounting intensity, voiced its enthusi- asm in unrestrained applause, recalling the conductor time and time again. "He and his 110 men rewarded their listeners with playing of superb quality and with music that moved by pro- gressive degrees of intensity to a really stupendous climax in the Finale of Sibelius' Second Symphony. "In the opening B-flat major Sym- phony of Haydn one was conscious at once of the superior balance and finish You can have all the loveliness of this orchestra, of the mellowness and of the new fall colors — Teal Blue, purity of its singing strings, of the soft- Fuchsia, Plum or Violet.

The Early Medieval Music (500-1150). i. Early chant traditions Chant (or plainsong) is a monophonic sacred form which represents the earliest known music of the Christian Church. The simplest, syllabic chants, in which each syllable is set to one note, were probably intended to be sung by the choir or congregation, while the more florid, melismatic examples (which have many notes to each syllable) were probably performed by soloists. Plainchant melodies (which are sometimes referred to as a “drown,” are characterized by the following: A monophonic texture; For ease of singing, relatively conjunct melodic contour (meaning no large intervals between one note and the next) and a restricted range (no notes too high or too low); and Rhythms based strictly on the articulation of the word being sung (meaning no steady dancelike beats). Chant developed separately in several European centers, the most important being Rome, Hispania, Gaul, Milan and Ireland. Chant was developed to support the regional liturgies used when celebrating Mass. Each area developed its own chant and rules for celebration. In Spain and Portugal, Mozarabic chant was used, showing the influence of North Afgican music. The Mozarabic liturgy survived through Muslim rule, though this was an isolated strand and was later suppressed in an attempt to enforce conformity on the entire liturgy.

  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

  • Symmetry and Narrative in Christopher Rouse's Trombone Concerto with White Space Waiting
    SYMMETRY AND NARRATIVE IN CHRISTOPHER ROUSE’S TROMBONE CONCERTO WITH WHITE SPACE WAITING (AN ORIGINAL COMPOSITION FOR CHAMBER ORCHESTRA) by R. Burkhardt Reiter BM, Eastman School of Music, 1995 MM, Duquesne University, 1999 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2005 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by R.

Burkhardt Reiter iii SYMMETRY AND NARRATIVE IN CHRISTOPHER ROUSE’S TROMBONE CONCERTO WITH WHITE SPACE WAITING (AN ORIGINAL COMPOSITION FOR CHAMBER ORCHESTRA) R. Burkhardt Reiter, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2005 The analytic component of my dissertation, “Symmetry and Narrative in Christopher Rouse’s Trombone Concerto,” illuminates the ways in which the concerto creates a musical metaphor of tragedy. To help frame my discussion of the Trombone Concerto’s narrative elements (which include Rouse’s self-referential quotation to his own Symphony No.1 and a quotation of Leonard Bernstein’s “Kaddish” Symphony No.3) I draw on Northrop Frye’s classification of tragedy as a narrative archetype. In order to illuminate the narrative functions of the two quotations and other motivic elements, I examine (with voice-leading and structural analysis) how the work’s prevailing formal and harmonic symmetry provides the narrative context for its musical expectations. The tragedy of the concerto is realized when the harmonic expectation created by the Bernstein quotation is disrupted by the return of the composition’s opening harmony and motivic gesture.

Born in Baltimore in 1949, Rouse developed an early interest in both clas - sical and popular music. He graduated from Oberlin Conservatory and Cornell Uni ver sity, numbering among his teachers George Crumb and Karel Husa. Rouse has maintained a steady interest in popular music: at the Eastman School of Music, where he was Professor of Composition until 2002, he taught a course in the his tory of rock for many years.

  • Giorgio De Santillana, Hertha Von Dechend
    Preface page v AS THE SENIOR, if least deserving, of the authors, I shall open the narrative. Over many years I have searched for the point where myth and science join. It was clear to me for a long time that the origins of science had their deep roots in a particular myth, that of invariance. The Greeks, as early as the 7th century B.C., spoke of the quest of their first sages as the Problem of the One and the Many, sometimes describing the wild fecundity of nature as the way in which the Many could be deduced from the One, sometimes seeing the Many as unsubstantial variations being played on the One. The oracular sayings of Heraclitus the Obscure do nothing but illustrate with shimmering paradoxes the illusory quality of "things" in flux as they were wrung from the central intuition of unity. Before him Anaximander had announced, also oracularly, that the cause of things being born and perishing is their mutual injustice to each other in the order of time, "as is meet," he said, for they are bound to atone forever for their mutual injustice. This was enough to make of Anaximander the acknowledged father of physical science, for the accent is on the real "Many." But it was true science after a fashion. Soon after, Pythagoras taught, no less oracularly, that "things are numbers." Thus mathematics was born. The problem of the origin of mathematics has remained with us to this day. In his high old age, Bertrand Russell has been driven to avow: "I have wished to know how the stars shine.
