TELEVISUAL CULTURE Roberts Visions of Electric Media Ivy Roberts Visions of Electric Media Television in the Victorian and Machine Ages Visions of Electric Media Televisual Culture Televisual culture encompasses and crosses all aspects of television – past, current and future – from its experiential dimensions to its aesthetic strategies, from its technological developments to its crossmedial extensions. The ‘televisual’ names a condition of transformation that is altering the coordinates through which we understand, theorize, intervene, and challenge contemporary media culture. Shifts in production practices, consumption circuits, technologies of distribution and access, and the aesthetic qualities of televisual texts foreground the dynamic place of television in the contemporary media landscape. They demand that we revisit concepts such as liveness, media event, audiences and broadcasting, but also that we theorize new concepts to meet the rapidly changing conditions of the televisual. The series aims at seriously analyzing both the contemporary specificity of the televisual and the challenges uncovered by new developments in technology and theory in an age in which digitization and convergence are redrawing the boundaries of media.

THE GILBERT AND SULLIVAN OPERETTAS ON 78s: COMPLETE SETS AND ABRIDGEMENTS, 1906. 1950 John W. N. Francis In 1877 Richard D'Oyly Carte commissioned Gilbert and Sullivan to write The Sorcerer, and organized an ensemble of singer-actors to perform the new piece under the author's artistic direction. Also in 1877, of course, Charles Cros and Thomas Edison invented sound recording. More than a century later both the music and the medium continue to flourish, and indeed they have come together often and success fully--notably in the many complete versions by the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, which have set standards of style and ensemble for generations of devotees and amateur performers. This discography documents the complete recordings of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas made at 78 rpm, not only by the D'Oyly Carte company or under its aegis, but also by others with lesser claims to authenticity. Also included are substantial abridgements and sets of excerpts--groups of five or more sides made at essentially the same time and place and with the same performers, whether or not they were ever issued collectively or with consecutive numbering. The following comments set the recordings in the context of the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company's history. THE ACOUSTIC RECORDINGS When Richard D'Oyly Carte died in 1901, his widow Helen assumed manage ment of the businesses he had built, including the Savoy Theatre in London and the opera company, which was then on tour. In 1906 she brought the troupe back to the Savoy for a repertory season of Gilbert and Sullivan, its very first. -

Dr. SERGE KOUSSEVITZKY, Conductor FIFTY-FIRST SEASON, 1931-1932 WITH HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE NOTES BY PHILIP HALE COPYRIGHT, 1932, BY BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, INC. 757 THE TRUMPET 1 HE clarion of the Eleventh Century was the im- mediate predecessor of the trumpet. The early in- strument, also called claro y and clarino, was a short straight tube of brass with one end carrying a cup- shaped mouthpiece and the other widening out into a bell. In the Eighteenth Century, Meyer of Hamburg made what has been called the first improvement in the trumpet — he invented a practical mouthpiece. Then occured a series of revolutionary changes. In 1780 Wogel added " tubes"; Wiedenger, court- trumpeter in Vienna, added " stops" in 1801; next came the "keys," with Sattler of Leipzig turning out the first trumpets equipped with them; and finally Striegel, a German orchestra player, introduced cer- tain refinements in bore and tubing. The trumpet is truly a stately and heraldic instru- ment. It is the portrayer of tournaments and pro- cessions, of pageants with a martial and romantic tinge. Its great agility makes it admirably suited to rapid figures, arpeggios, and to repetitions. In addi- tion to its strident calls, it can produce effects either fantastic or of extreme sweetness. Berlioz wrote: "The quality of the trumpet tone is noble and brilliant . It lends itself to the expression of all energetic and lofty and grand sentiments and to the majority of tragic accents." * * * * 1 HERE are many ways in which the services of Old Colony Trust Company as Executor and Trustee can help you obtain a definite objective. -
