  • Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art
    Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art This piano began life as a brown Recordo. The sound board was re-engineered, as the original ribs tapered so soon that the bass bridges pushed through. The strings were the wrong weight, and were re-scaled using computer technology. Six more wound-strings were added, and the weights of the steel strings were changed. A 14-inch Duo-Art pump, a fan-expression system, and an expression-valve-size Duo-Art stack with a soft-pedal compensation lift were all built for it. The Marquetry on the side of the piano was inspired by the pictures on the Arto-Roll boxes. The fallboard was inspired by a picture on the Rhythmodic roll box. A new bench was built, modeled after the bench originally available, but veneered to go with the rest of the piano.

  • Mechanical Instruments and Phonography: the Recording Angel of Historiography”, Radical Musicology, No Prelo
    Silva, João, “Mechanical instruments and phonography: The Recording Angel of historiography”, Radical Musicology, no prelo. Mechanical instruments and phonography: The Recording Angel of historiography This article strives to examine the established historical narrative concerning music recording. For that purpose it will concentrate on the phonographic era of acoustic recording (from 1877 to the late 1920s), a period when several competing technologies for capturing and registering sound and music were being incorporated in everyday life. Moreover, it will analyse the significant chronological overlap of analogue and digital media and processes of recording, thus adding a layer of complexity to the current historical narratives regarding that activity. In order to address that set of events, this work will mainly recur to the work of both Walter Benjamin and Slavoj Žižek. Benjamin’s insight as an author that bore witness to and analysed the processes of commodification that were operating in the period in which this article concerns is essential in a discussion that focuses on aspects such as modernity, technology, and history. Furthermore, his work on history presents a space in which to address and critique the notion of historicism as an operation that attempts to impose a narrative continuity to the fragmentary categories of existence within modernity, a stance this article will develop when analysing the historiography of music and sound recording. The work of Žižek is especially insightful in tracing a distinction between historicism

  • MTO 20.1: Willey, Editing and Arrangement
    Volume 20, Number 1, March 2014 Copyright © 2014 Society for Music Theory The Editing and Arrangement of Conlon Nancarrow’s Studies for Disklavier and Synthesizers Robert Willey NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: http://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.14.20.1/mto.14.20.1.willey.php KEYWORDS: Conlon Nancarrow, MIDI, synthesis, Disklavier ABSTRACT: Over the last three decades a number of approaches have been used to hear Conlon Nancarrow’s Studies for Player Piano in new settings. The musical information necessary to do this can be obtained from his published scores, the punching scores that reveal the planning behind the compositions, copies of the rolls, or the punched rolls themselves. The most direct method of extending the Studies is to convert them to digital format, because of the similarities between the way notes are represented on a player piano roll and in MIDI. The process of editing and arranging Nancarrow’s Studies in the MIDI environment is explained, including how piano roll dynamics are converted into MIDI velocities, and other decisions that must be made in order to perform them in a particular environment: the Yamaha Disklavier with its accompanying GM sound module. While Nancarrow approved of multi-timbral synthesis, separating the voices of his Studies and assigning them unique timbres changes the listener’s experience of the “resultant,” Tenney’s term for the fusion of multiple voices into a single polyphonic texture. Received January 2014 1. Introduction [1.1] Conlon Nancarrow’s compositional output from 1948 until his death in 1997 was primarily for the two player pianos in his studio in Mexico City.
