  • Enharmonic Substitution in Bernard Herrmann's Early Works
    Enharmonic Substitution in Bernard Herrmann’s Early Works By William Wrobel In the course of my research of Bernard Herrmann scores over the years, I’ve recently come across what I assume to be an interesting notational inconsistency in Herrmann’s scores. Several months ago I began to earnestly focus on his scores prior to 1947, especially while doing research of his Citizen Kane score (1941) for my Film Score Rundowns website (http://www.filmmusic.cjb.net). Also I visited UCSB to study his Symphony (1941) and earlier scores. What I noticed is that roughly prior to 1947 Herrmann tended to consistently write enharmonic notes for certain diatonic chords, especially E substituted for Fb (F-flat) in, say, Fb major 7th (Fb/Ab/Cb/Eb) chords, and (less frequently) B substituted for Cb in, say, Ab minor (Ab/Cb/Eb) triads. Occasionally I would see instances of other note exchanges such as Gb for F# in a D maj 7 chord. This enharmonic substitution (or “equivalence” if you prefer that term) is overwhelmingly consistent in Herrmann’ notational practice in scores roughly prior to 1947, and curiously abandoned by the composer afterwards. The notational “inconsistency,” therefore, relates to the change of practice split between these two periods of Herrmann’s career, almost a form of “Before” and “After” portrayal of his notational habits. Indeed, after examination of several dozens of his scores in the “After” period, I have seen (so far in this ongoing research) only one instance of enharmonic substitution similar to what Herrmann engaged in before 1947 (see my discussion in point # 19 on Battle of Neretva).

  • Written Vs. Sounding Pitch
    Written Vs. Sounding Pitch Donald Byrd School of Music, Indiana University January 2004; revised January 2005 Thanks to Alan Belkin, Myron Bloom, Tim Crawford, Michael Good, Caitlin Hunter, Eric Isaacson, Dave Meredith, Susan Moses, Paul Nadler, and Janet Scott for information and for comments on this document. "*" indicates scores I haven't seen personally. It is generally believed that converting written pitch to sounding pitch in conventional music notation is always a straightforward process. This is not true. In fact, it's sometimes barely possible to convert written pitch to sounding pitch with real confidence, at least for anyone but an expert who has examined the music closely. There are many reasons for this; a list follows. Note that the first seven or eight items are specific to various instruments, while the others are more generic. Note also that most of these items affect only the octave, so errors are easily overlooked and, as a practical matter, not that serious, though octave errors can result in mistakes in identifying the outer voices. The exceptions are timpani notation and accidental carrying, which can produce semitone errors; natural harmonics notated at fingered pitch, which can produce errors of a few large intervals; baritone horn and euphonium clef dependencies, which can produce errors of a major 9th; and scordatura and C scores, which can lead to errors of almost any amount. Obviously these are quite serious, even disasterous. It is also generally considered that the difference between written and sounding pitch is simply a matter of transposition. Several of these cases make it obvious that that view is correct only if the "transposition" can vary from note to note, and if it can be one or more octaves, or a smaller interval plus one or more octaves.

  • Serving America
    Proven leadership, a strong work ethic, discipline, teamwork—traits often used to describe those in our nation’s military. They are the same traits also associated with those who earn an M.B.A. The Simon Graduate School of Business has recognized this in its long tradition of accepting students with military backgrounds. As far back as the early 1970’s, instructors in the University of Rochester’s Naval R.O.T.C. program have taught naval science courses and attended Simon on Fridays through the Executive M.B.A. Program. During that time, Simon also offered an M.S. program in Systems Analysis, overseen by Ronald W. Hansen, senior associate dean for faculty and research, that enrolled and graduated approximately 75 mid-career military officers. Over the years, many Simon international students have performed military service in their home countries as well. Over the past two years, under Dean Mark Zupan’s leadership, the School has accelerated efforts to actively recruit M.B.A. candidates with military experience—either on orders from the military while on active duty or following several years of military service. “Since its inception, the Simon School has sought to attract the best and brightest candidates to attend its programs,” says Zupan. “Aside from today’s political climate, we continue to believe that the skills and traits inherent in current or former members of the military mirror those necessary for earning a graduate business degree and being successful.” Zupan ap- pointed Daniel H. Struble, retired Navy captain and former head of the University’s N.R.O.T.C.

  • Know Your Emeritus Member... STAN KOPECKY
    Know your Emeritus Member... STAN KOPECKY Stan founded his consulting practice, which specializes in the design, development, testing and commercialization of consumer products packaging following a distinguished career with several of the largest and most sophisticated consumer products companies in the world. He began his career as a Food Research Scientist with Armour and Company. Shortly thereafter he joined Northfield, IL-based Kraft Inc. where he progressed rapidly through positions as a Packaging Research Scientist, Assistant Packaging Manager and Packaging Manager. While at Kraft, he implemented a series of programs that generated $3-5 million per year in savings in the production of rigid and flexible packaging categories; spearheaded the development of the Company’s first Vendor Certification Program for packaging materials and developed and delivered a packaging awareness program that proved successful in improving product quality and safety. Most recently Stan served as a Senior Packaging Project Manager with Chicago, IL-based Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, the world’s largest manufacturer and marketer of chewing gum and a leader in the confectionary field. While at Wrigley, he played a major role in the evolution of the company, going from a provider of relatively indistinguishable commodities to a consumer focused, product feature driven business. In that regard, he was instrumental in achieving the number one position in the sugarless gum category by designing the packaging for Orbit tab gum, which proved to be a powerful product differentiator and which was awarded both a U.S. patent and the Company’s Creativity Award. He supported the Company’s successful entry into the breath mint segment by designing the tin and carton packaging utilized for the introduction of the Eclipse and Excel products into the U.S.
