Troyer evidently requested that Schubert model the work on Beethoven's famous Septet for winds and strings (Opus 20; composed 1799), which at that time was still the most popular of all of Beethoven's instrumental works, far outdistancing the symphonies and concertos. Schubert followed instructions, mimicking the older master's work so closely in I jm mm:'-*. ?wr fSm^BBm scoring, layout of movements, and musical character that this must have been obvious to everyone who heard the piece and they would have enjoyed it all the more for that very reason.

But there are reasons far more compelling than mere longevity to regard Elliott Carter as the most eminent of living American composers, and as one of the foremost composers in the world at large. His name has come to be synonymous with music that is at once structurally formidable, expressively extraordinary, and virtuosically dazzling: music that asks much of listener and performer INTRODUCTION alike but gives far more in return. Carter was born in New York and, except during the later years of his education, has always lived there. After college and some postgraduate study at Harvard, like many an aspiring American composer of his generation who did not find the training he sought at home, Carter went off to Paris to study with Nadia Boulanger, an experience which, while enabling a necessary development of technique, also lent his work a conservative, neoclassical style for a time.

    sign in | contact us Members Only ABOUT US | MEMBERSHIP | THE CLARINET JOURNAL | CLARINETFEST® | COMPETITIONS | RESEARCH CENTER | ARCHIVES & LINKS Clarinet Anthology Current Trends in Treating the Palatal Air Leak (Stress Velopharyngeal Insufficiency) Previous ClarinetFest Presentations ClarinetFest® 2007 Electronic Archived Issues Dr. Chris Gibson Clarinet Journal Back Issues Associate Professor of Music Northwest Missouri State University Links Download PowerPoint Presentation Air leaking through the nose while playing the clarinet, or any wind instrument, is annoying, embarrassing and usually stressful. The noise can range from a mild hiss to a loud snort and can even be heard by the audience during a recital. The problem does not occur in a large number of players, but when it does, it can be career threatening. My interest in this topic developed because I spent many years struggling with the air leak, unable to find anyone who could help me control or eliminate it. During my doctoral studies, I was finally able to bring this problem under control, and I wrote my dissertation about five wind players with palatal air leaks. I am periodically contacted by individuals who have developed this air leak and are searching for solutions on the clarinet chat board. When I was contacted by a clarinet-playing physician experiencing the air leak, I was intrigued by her use of newer medical diagnostic procedures in her attempt to understand the problem, and began to explore recent advances in diagnosis and treatment. Unfortunately, there does not appear to have been a great deal of progress. And although there have been a couple of research projects related to this issue, the number of players who seek help for this leak is apparently very low, and so the number of subjects studied is very small.

In the field of music therapy, the competency instruments of piano, voice, guitar, and percussion are widely revered as the most beneficial for clients during active music making interventions. However, many music therapists come to the field with years of professional training on other instruments called principal instruments.
