VOCAL 78 Rpm Discs Minimum Bid As Indicated Per Item
VOCAL 78 rpm Discs Minimum bid as indicated per item. Listings “Just about 1-2” should be considered as mint and “Cons. 2” with just the slightest marks. For collectors searching top copies, you’ve come to the right place! The further we get from the time of production (in many cases now 100 years or more), the more difficult it is to find such excellent extant pressings. Some are actually from mint dealer stocks and others the result of having improved copies via dozens of collections purchased over the past fifty years. * * * For those looking for the best sound via modern reproduction, those items marked “late” are usually of high quality shellac, pressed in the 1950-55 period. A number of items in this particular catalogue are excellent pressings from that era. * * * Please keep in mind that the minimum bids are in U.S. Dollars, a benefit to most collectors. * * * “Text label on verso.” For a brief period (1912-14), Victor pressed silver-on-black labels on the reverse sides of some of their single-faced recordings, usually with a translation of the text or similarly related comments. BESSIE ABOTT [s]. Riverdale, NY, 1878-New York, 1919. Following the death of her father which left her family penniless, Bessie and her sister Jessie (born Pickens) formed a vaudeville sister vocal act, accompanying themselves on banjo and guitar. Upon the recommendation of Jean de Reszke, who heard them by chance, Bessie began operatic training with Frida Ashforth. She subsequently studied with de Reszke him- self and appeared with him at the Paris Opéra, making her debut as Gounod’s Juliette. -

Developing and Sustaining Audience Participation for Classical Music in a Regional Australian Community: Facilitators and Constraints of Engagement
Developing and sustaining audience participation for classical music in a regional Australian community: Facilitators and constraints of engagement Robert James Manley BMus (Hons), LMusA, AMusA, CMusA https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3678-1315 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Music i Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the sociocultural and musical factors that facilitate and constrain audience engagement with classical chamber music in a regional Australian community. Much has been written about sustainability challenges for classical music institutions and practitioners in contemporary society, evidenced by an ageing demographic, declining audience numbers, and changing habits of consumption. Nevertheless, little is known about the phenomenon of chamber music both in regional Australian communities and from a place-based perspective. Adopting these foci, this study investigated the role of chamber music in engaging with community audiences and generating social capital in regional Australia. Seven areas of literature informed this study. The first considered the sociocultural and policy contexts that influence a shifting climate for classical music engagement. The second area outlined social capital as a theoretical framework that illustrates the sociocultural benefits of classical music in communities. The third focused on community chamber music from place-based and idiocultural perspectives. The fourth considered the role of music, career, and community identities as facets of classical music practice in regional Australia, and the fifth further explored shaping factors for music identity in this context. The sixth examined public stakeholder perspectives of classical music, considering literature on the audience experience. -

Impressionist Music 1 Impressionist Music
Impressionist music 1 Impressionist music Impressionist music Stylistic origins Reaction to 19th century Romanticism Cultural origins Late 19th century in Paris, France Typical instruments woodwind, strings, harp, piano, small chamber ensembles Mainstream popularity ca. 1875 to 1925 The impressionist movement in music was a movement in European classical music, mainly in France which appeared in the late nineteenth century and continued into the middle of the twentieth century. Similarly to its precursor in the visual arts, musical Impressionism focuses on a suggestion and an atmosphere rather than on a strong emotion or the depiction of a story as in program music. Musical Impressionism occurred as a reaction to the excesses of the Romantic era. While this era was characterized by a dramatic use of the major and minor scale systems, Impressionist music was tending to make more use of dissonance. Rather uncommon scales such as whole tone scale are also typical for this movement. Romantic composers were using long forms of music, e.g. symphony and concerto, while Impressionist composers were favoring short forms such as nocturne, arabesque and prelude. Musical Impressionism was based in France by the French composer Claude Debussy. He and Maurice Ravel were generally considered to be the two "great" Impressionists. However, these days composers are generally not as accurately described by the term "Impressionism" as painters in the genre were. Debussy renounced it, saying: "I am trying to do 'something different' – in a way realities – what the imbeciles call 'impressionism' is a term which is as poorly used as possible, particularly by art critics."[1] Musical impressionism is closely related to the superior value of impressionist painting: placing the colour factor to the foreground strongly influenced the shaping of new sound effects.
