THE PROFESSIONAL LIFE AND PEDAGOGY OF CLEMENT BARONE 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 Emily J. Butterfield, M.M. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Document Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Adviser Approved by Professor R. J. David Frego Professor Donald Gibson ___________________________ Adviser Professor Christopher Weait School of Music Copyright by Emily J. Butterfield 2003 ABSTRACT Orchestral musician and teacher Clement Barone (1921-), played piccolo in the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and the Houston Symphony Orchestra for over forty years. A native of Philadelphia, Barone plays an open g-sharp system, which he learned from his first teacher, his flutist-father Clemente Barone. Subsequent teachers included Joseph La Monaca, Frank Versaci, Fernando Morrone, and the eminent William Kincaid, who recommended Barone for his first major orchestral position: piccolo and assistant first flute in the Houston Symphony Orchestra. While playing in Houston, Barone secured and refined his piccolo technique performing for conductors Efrem Kurtz, Sir Thomas Beecham, and Leopold Stokowski. In 1959 Barone moved to Detroit to play piccolo in the Detroit Symphony Orchestra under principal conductor Paul Paray. During his thirty-two year career in Detroit, Barone collaborated with fellow flutists Albert Tipton, Irvin Gilman, and later members, Ervin Monroe, Shaul Ben-Meir, and Robert Patrick. In addition to presenting a chronological study of Barone’s professional activities, this document also discusses selected aspects of Barone’s flute and piccolo pedagogy, formed from his premise that the flute “should imitate the human singing voice in style and quality of lyricism.” ii Additional chapters include an account of lessons with William Kincaid, a discussion of Barone’s publication, Learning the Piccolo: A Treatise on the Subtleties and Problems of Playing the Piccolo in Relation to the Flute (1975), and Barone’s perception of changes in orchestral procedures as they impact the professional orchestral musician. iii Dedicated to my family iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my most sincere gratitude and appreciation to Clement Barone for his invaluable participation and assistance in this project. His endless enthusiasm for music and life remain ever so amazing and inspiring. I cannot thank him enough. I also would like to thank Margaret Barone for her support and encouragement as I completed this project. A special note of appreciation must also go to the many individuals who so willingly spoke with me: Shaul Ben-Meir; Herb Couf; Mario Di Fiore; Irvin Gilman; Bill Holcombe; Hubert Laws; Ervin Monroe; Tom Perazzoli; Mary Scudder; Eldred Spell; and Miles Zentner. I also wish to especially thank Tiffany Stozicki and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra for allowing me access to their records and program books; Houston Symphony Archivist Terry Brown for locating programming and orchestral personnel details; Jane Dodgen and Elizabeth Chaussé for their proofreading skills; and Professor Alan Green, Director of The Ohio State University Music and Dance Library for his expert advice on the interview process. Many thanks also to John Guinn, The Detroit Free Press music critic; Bruce Carr, former Detroit Symphony Orchestra manager; JoAnne Barry of the Philadelphia Orchestra Archives; Miriam Ciesla, for her research on Ellis Island; and Anne O’Donnell, Director of Alumni Relations at The Curtis Institute of Music. v I also wish to sincerely thank my advisor, Professor Katherine Borst Jones, and the other members of my committee: Dr. R. J. David Frego; Dr. Donald Gibson; and Professor Christopher Weait for their invaluable expertise and guidance. Finally, I wish to extend my deepest gratitude to my husband, Dr. Edward C. Holmes, for his patience and technical assistance in completing this document. I also wish to express my appreciation for the encouragement and support he has provided me throughout my degree program. vi VITA Education 1987 M.M., Applied Flute The Florida State University 1984 B.M., Instrumental Music Education Michigan State University Employment 1999–2002 Flute Graduate Teaching Associate The Ohio State University 1998–1999 Visiting Instructor of Music Education Department of Music, Morehead State University Morehead, KY 1997–1998 Instrumental Music Teacher San Diego Unified School District, San Diego, CA 1995 Lecturer in Music Education University of Wisconsin-River Falls 1991–1994 Vocal and Instrumental Music Teacher Independent School District #885, St. Michael, MN 1988–1990 Faculty Woodwind Quintet Department of Music, Hope College, Holland, MI 1981–Present Private Flute Instructor Columbus, OH, Minneapolis, MN, Holland, MI East Lansing, MI vii RECITALS Doctor of Musical Arts Degree 6 May 2002 Solo Recital Hindemith Sonatine, Op. 31 Nr. 3, Gaubert Fantaisie, Villa-Lobos Assobio a Jato, Martin Ballade, and Parker Games for Flute and Clarinet 21 February 2002 Chamber Recital Beethoven Serenade in D Major, Op. 25, Ewazen Ballade, Pastorale, and Dance, Lully, arr.

    110991 bk Menuhin 8/03/2005 02:15pm Page 4 Producer’s Note ADD The Mendelssohn D minor concerto, recorded two days after Menuhin gave the world première public performance Great Violinists • Menuhin 8.110991 of the work in Carnegie Hall, was apparently only released in the United States. Fourteen months later, EMI re-recorded it in London, this time with Adrian Boult at the podium. The earlier version (which marked Menuhin’s first conducting credit on records) disappeared, and has not been available in any form since the 1950s. It has been transferred here from the best portions of three first edition RCA LPs. Menuhin’s recording of the composer’s more famous E minor concerto with Furtwängler conducting has been more readily available in the succeeding decades; yet the master tape is fraught with problems that can be heard MENDELSSOHN from its first (1952) LP release on RCA Victor through EMI’s CDs. What sounds like a tape tracking or bias problem during the original recording session causes the highs to go in and out during the tuttis. In addition, Violin Concerto in E minor occasional grittiness and electronic clicks can be heard on all editions. EMI waited two years to release it in Europe, perhaps in the hope that Menuhin and Furtwängler would re-record it with better sonic results. This transfer was Violin Concerto in D minor made from a French EMI LP pressing. While this was Menuhin’s second recording of the Mendelssohn E minor, the version of the Bruch concerto presented here was already his third attempt on disc.

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.

Exactly a year after his last album, the well-received Construction Time & Demolition, he's back with a new album, Transience. For every song of Wreckless Eric's you remember from his early days on Stiff Records, he's recorded 10 more that you've probably never heard. The early DIY British indie label may have been his entry-level position into the music business, but Eric Goulden didn't stop making music after the novelty of Stiff Records - and his being known as Wreckless Eric - wore off. Forty years on, Goulden is still making insightful music while the original label is but a footnote in music history. On Transience, Eric is joined by friends including acoustic 12-string guitar player Alexander Turnquist, Cheap Trick bassist, Tom Petersson, Amy Rigby on piano and backing TRACK LISTING vocals, jazz horn player Artie Barbato, and on drums Steve Goulding, late of Graham Parker & the Rumour - the first 1. FATHER TO THE MAN time he and Eric have recorded together since Eric's 2. STRANGE LOCOMOTION enduring hit "Whole Wide World" back in 1976. He wrote the songs on the move, alone in grubby rooms, in 3.

Casals never held a permanent teaching position, neither did he commit his teaching philosophy to paper. This thesis examines three selected aspects of expressive tools: intonation, vibrato, and portamento – as interpreted by Casals – and defines how they are reflected in methods of two cellists with first-hand access to Casals's knowledge: Diran Alexanian (1881-1954) and Maurice Eisenberg (1900-1972). The first chapter presents two extensive biographical accounts of these authors.

    Program Summary (20 February 2014)

    Program Summary (20 February 2014) At 8:20 pm, President Byrnes introduced George Barnstone, who organized the introduction of guests. Our speaker, Carl Cunningham, was introduced by Dr. Don Looser. (Dr. Looser is vice-president emeritus of Houston Baptist University, and author of An Act of Providence, which is a history of HBU’s first 50 years.) Carl Cunningham is the retired fine arts critic for the Houston Post,a position he held for 30 years until the Post folded in 1995. Carl arrived in Hous- ton when Jones Hall opened in 1966. Carl was affiliated with the University of St. Thomas for nearly 20 years. Carl’s degree was from Notre Dame. Carl is co-author of two books on the Houston Symphony. The title of this evening’s talk was The Houston Symphony: Celebrating a Century.Themember- ship warmly welcomed the speaker. This is the 663rd meeting of the Houston Philosophical Society. Carl began by explaining that he wrote about half of the book, together with colleagues Terry Brown and Ginny Garrett. Terry and Ginny assembled an impressive collection of stories and pictures as part of the Symphony’s history. The first symphony director was Julien Blitz from 1913-1916. Julien had moved to the warm climate of Houston several years earlier. The symphony resulted from a friendship of Blitz and Ima Hogg. The venue was the Majestic Theater, which is now part of the Houston Chronicle building downtown. Blitz resigned when the orchestra was not able to expand beyond the 34 members. The orchestra disbanded at the end of WWI, and only started up again in 1931.
