    The Commissioned Flute Choir Pieces Presented By

    THE COMMISSIONED FLUTE CHOIR PIECES PRESENTED BY UNIVERSITY/COLLEGE FLUTE CHOIRS AND NFA SPONSORED FLUTE CHOIRS AT NATIONAL FLUTE ASSOCIATION ANNUAL CONVENTIONS WITH A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FLUTE CHOIR AND ITS REPERTOIRE DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yoon Hee Kim Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2013 D.M.A. Document Committee: Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Dr. Russel C. Mikkelson Dr. Charles M. Atkinson Karen Pierson Copyright by Yoon Hee Kim 2013 Abstract The National Flute Association (NFA) sponsors a range of non-performance and performance competitions for performers of all ages. Non-performance competitions are: a Flute Choir Composition Competition, Graduate Research, and Newly Published Music. Performance competitions are: Young Artist Competition, High School Soloist Competition, Convention Performers Competition, Flute Choirs Competitions, Professional, Collegiate, High School, and Jazz Flute Big Band, and a Masterclass Competition. These competitions provide opportunities for flutists ranging from amateurs to professionals. University/college flute choirs perform original manuscripts, arrangements and transcriptions, as well as the commissioned pieces, frequently at conventions, thus expanding substantially the repertoire for flute choir. The purpose of my work is to document commissioned repertoire for flute choir, music for five or more flutes, presented by university/college flute choirs and NFA sponsored flute choirs at NFA annual conventions. Composer, title, premiere and publication information, conductor, performer and instrumentation will be included in an annotated bibliography format. A brief history of the flute choir and its repertoire, as well as a history of NFA-sponsored flute choir (1973–2012) will be included in this document.
  • Varsity Jazz

    Varsity Jazz

    Varsity Jazz Jazz at Reading University 1951 - 1984 By Trevor Bannister 1 VARSITY JAZZ Jazz at Reading University 1951 represented an important year for Reading University and for Reading’s local jazz scene. The appearance of Humphrey Lyttelton’s Band at the University Rag Ball, held at the Town Hall on 28th February, marked the first time a true product of the Revivalist jazz movement had played in the town. That it should be the Lyttelton band, Britain’s pre-eminent group of the time, led by the ex-Etonian and Grenadier Guardsman, Humphrey Lyttelton, made the event doubly important. Barely three days later, on 3rd March, the University Rag Committee presented a second event at the Town Hall. The Jazz Jamboree featured the Magnolia Jazz Band led by another trumpeter fast making a name for himself, the colourful Mick Mulligan. It would be the first of his many visits to Reading. Denny Dyson provided the vocals and the Yew Tree Jazz Band were on hand for interval support. There is no further mention of jazz activity at the university in the pages of the Reading Standard until 1956, when the clarinettist Sid Phillips led his acclaimed touring and broadcasting band on stage at the Town Hall for the Rag Ball on 25th February, supported by Len Lacy and His Sweet Band. Considering the intense animosity between the respective followers of traditional and modern jazz, which sometimes reached venomous extremes, the Rag Committee took a brave decision in 1958 to book exponents of the opposing schools. The Rag Ball at the Olympia Ballroom on 20th February, saw Ken Colyer’s Jazz Band, which followed the zealous path of its leader in keeping rigidly to the disciplines of New Orleans jazz, sharing the stage with the much cooler and sophisticated sounds of a quartet led by Tommy Whittle, a tenor saxophonist noted for his work with the Ted Heath Orchestra.

The University of Southern Mississippi EXTENDED TECHNIQUES AND ELECTRONIC ENHANCEMENTS: A STUDY OF WORKS BY IAN CLARKE by Christopher Leigh Davis Abstract of a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of The University of Southern Mississippi in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts December 2012 ABSTRACT EXTENDED TECHNIQUES AND ELECTRONIC ENHANCEMENTS: A STUDY OF WORKS BY IAN CLARKE by Christopher Leigh Davis December 2012 British flutist Ian Clarke is a leading performer and composer in the flute world. His works have been performed internationally and have been used in competitions given by the National Flute Association and the British Flute Society. Clarke’s compositions are also referenced in the Peters Edition of the Edexcel GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) Anthology of Music as examples of extended techniques. The significance of Clarke’s works lies in his unique compositional style. His music features sounds and styles that one would not expect to hear from a flute and have elements that appeal to performers and broader audiences alike.

    1 The FLUTE of WAYMAN ALEXANDER CARVER Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: July 2, 2011 2 Born: Portsmouth, Virginia, Dec. 25, 1905 Died: May 6, 1967 Introduction: From the very first day I heard Wayman Carver‟s flute on the Spike Hughes sessions, I have been a great fan. Not only was he the first (together with Alberto Socarras) to improvise on flute, but he was more than just a pioneer on that instrument. His soli certainly have lasting qualities for musical and not only for historical reasons. He might have recorded more extensively, if he had chosen an instrument less „modest‟! His sound was probably not among the loudest ones on Chick Webb‟s dancing nights, therefore he never became a „name‟ to the public, not even the general jazz public. I sincerely believe he deserves a solography, although it is much too brief. Some years after writing Wayman Carver‟s solography in 1983 (Jazz Solography Series, Vol. 14), I met his daughter Avis and the whole family in Atlanta, a great pleasure for me! Together we made a website for his 100 years anniversary in 2005. History: Wayman Alexander Carver was bom December 25,1905 in Portsmouth, Virginia. His parents were Alexander and Catherine Carver. Wayman was the second bom of eight children – four boys and four girls. At an early age, Carver showed not only an interest in but talent for music. Both his father and uncle were accomplished musicians who played in the Metropolitan Marching Band of Portsmouth. The band was a combined jazz and marching band composed largely of “earmusicians”.

Fairly recently, Medical literature has addressed the following: ! 1. “The prevalence and incidence of musculoskeletal symptoms experienced by flautists” by Stanhope J, Milanese S, Occup Med (Lond). 2016 Mar. ! This study summarizes that it: “…precludes a clear understanding of the prevalence and location of musculoskeletal symptoms in flautists, although current evidence suggests that the prevalence is high…” ! 2. “Contributing factors, prevention, and management of playing-related musculoskeletal disorders among flute players internationally” by Lonsdale K, Laakso EL, Tomlinson V, Med Probl Perform Art. 2014 Sep;29(3):155-62 ! This study states: “…26.7% of all respondents were suffering from flute playing- related discomfort or pain; 49.7% had experienced flute playing-related discomfort or pain that was severe enough to distract while performing; and 25.8% had taken an extended period of time off playing because of discomfort or pain…” 3.”Incidence of injury and attitudes to injury management in skilled flute players” by Ackermann BJ, Kenny DT, Fortune J, Work. 2011;40(3):255-9. doi: 10.3233/ WOR-2011-1227. ! This study summarizes that: “…Flautists in this sample reported high rates of performance-related musculoskeletal disorders with the majority having been present for longer than 3 months…” ! !

IV. D.M.A. Research Project. THE TRAINING OF JAZZ AND POPULAR STYLES IN MULTIPLE WOODWIND DEGREE PROGRAMS, (2017). This project attempts to determine if graduate students in multiple woodwind degree programs are provided adequate access to jazz training or performance opportunities as part of the degree program. To meet the professional expectations in the field, multiple woodwind instrumentalists not only need to be able to play several woodwind instruments well, but also in a wide range of styles. In particular, players must be literate in jazz performance styles, primarily to be able to play in swing or big band style but also, occasionally, to improvise. Degree requirements that were available online from twenty-four universities that offer a graduate degree in multiple woodwinds were examined, in addition to the background and areas of expertise of some of the woodwind faculty.
