He was an outspoken advocate of new music, promoting it through established performing organizations, new-music groups, and his own ensembles. 34 Frances Blaisdell: Living Link to Georges Barrère by Barbara Highton Williams At a time when professional women flutists were rare and their opportunities even rarer, Frances Blaisdell flourished—as a performer, musician, and student of Georges Barrère. 44 The Brazilian Choro: Historical Perspectives and Performance Practices by Tadeu Coelho and Julie Koidin Balanço is to choro as swing is to jazz—in both, mandatory elements to proper performance and enjoyment of the music. Immersion in the sound of choro is imperative to playing it well. 56 Walfrid Kujala, Orchestral “Untangler” 34 by Joanna Cowan White Walfrid Kujala’s students play in more than 30 major orchestras and countless other ensembles, and teach at 20 universities. His influence on symphonic playing is a result of his passion for music tempered with relentless attention to detail. 68 Convention Perspectives by Susan Goodfellow A veteran NFA conventioneer offers accolades and insights on the 33rd annual convention. 70 What We Learned on Our Summer Vacation: Etudes and Equally Excellent Ideas by Cynthia Stevens Pedagogy committee members provide an overview of topics covered at the NFA Convention in San Diego, at which the committee also introduced its new book. 44 Cover Photo: Courtesy of Bibliothèque du Conservatoire, Lausanne, Switzerland THE NATIONAL FLUTE ASSOCIATION 26951 RUETHER AVENUE,SUITE H SANTA CLARITA, CA 91351 FOUNDED NOVEMBER 18, 1972 IN ELKHART,INDIANA This magazine is published quarterly by the National Flute Association, Inc., a non-profit organization.

  • The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000
    The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000: A Performative and Analytical Study, with a Catalogue Raisonné of the Extant Works Analytical Study: The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000: A Study of Instrumental Techniques, Forms and Genres, with a Catalogue Raisonné of the Extant Corpus By Brandon Philip Jones ORCHID ID# 0000-0001-9083-9907 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2018 Faculty of Fine Arts and Music The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT The Conservatoire de Paris concours were a consistent source of new literature for the trumpet and cornet from 1835 to 2000. Over this time, professors and composers added over 172 works to the repertoire. Students and professionals have performed many of these pieces, granting long-term popularity to a select group. However, the majority of these works are not well-known. The aim of this study is to provide students, teachers, and performers with a greater ability to access these works. This aim is supported in three ways: performances of under-recorded literature; an analysis of the instrumental techniques, forms and genres used in the corpus; and a catalogue raisonné of all extant contest works. The performative aspect of this project is contained in two compact discs of recordings, as well as a digital video of a live recital. Twenty-six works were recorded; seven are popular works in the genre, and the other nineteen are works that are previously unrecorded. The analytical aspect is in the written thesis; it uses the information obtained in the creation of the catalogue raisonné to provide an overview of the corpus in two vectors.
