All you gotta do is check whatzup and you’ll know that’s not the case. In this issue alone, we feature four shows Wworth checking out – The Accidentals, Steve Forbert, Scott H.

One local artist you’ll want to seek out is Christopher Ganz, our cover feature this week. Heather Miller’s story is on page 4, and it’s an interesting read about a fasci- nating guy. Also featured this week is writer Mark Paul Smith, whose new novel is garnering critical praise. Steve Penhollow’s feature is on page 5, and it, too, is an interesting read about a fascinating guy. Continuing along the same lines, Michele DeVinney profiles Dan O’Connell, who heads up Visit Fort Wayne, on page 7.

  • Antolini, Retta Maniera Di Scivere Per Il Clarinetto (1813)
    Francesco Antolini La Retta Maniera di Scrivere per il Clarinetto (The Right Way to Write for the Clarinet) Milan (1813) Translated by Sion M. Honea 1 Translator’s Preface Antolini’s book is an interesting precursor to what would become the standard approach to the treatment of orchestration in the form of the treatises by Georg Kastner, Traité Général d’Instrumentation (1837) and Hector Berlioz Grand Traité d’Instrumentation et d’Orchestration (1843). What makes it interesting is not that it is nearly exclusively devoted to the issues of only one instrument, which was more nearly the earlier norm, but that it represents a time when the evolution of instruments of all types was happening so rapidly and with so many innovations, even so, in regard to physical development of the clarinet Antolini is conservative, advocating the five-key instrument and viewing even the six-key one skeptically. Rather, what makes Antolini’s book particularly interesting is that it is so revealing of a liminal period in which writing for these rapidly developing instruments was still for most composers so mysterious a practice and when the demand for expanded harmonic potential was accelerating. The author does give practical information about range and particular difficulties, especially those associated with different keys for an instrument only just emerging from its diatonic forebears, and for which he finds it only natural to give parallel but separate “diatonic” and “chromatic” fingering charts. The bulk of his treatment, however, centers on the mere technique of writing for the clarinet, of how to figure out the pitch level and key for the written parts of the transposing instrument, a term to which Antolini objects; indeed, it is only this preoccupation with transposition that justifies the inclusion of a section in the appendix on the horn and trumpet.
