An orchestra is a group of musicians that play together on various instruments. In a symphony orchestra the instruments are divided into families: woodwind, brass, percussion and string. The word ‘symphony’ comes from a Greek word meaning ‘sounding together’. The Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra Established in 1948 and declared a Tasmanian Icon in 1998, the TSO gives more than 70 concerts annually including seasons in Hobart and Launceston, and appearances in Tasmanian regional centres. In addition to its core activity of giving subscription concerts, the TSO endeavours to broaden its imprint by forging links with other arts organisations. Recent partnerships have included collaborations with the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), the Australian Ballet, the Australian National Academy of Music, Terrapin Puppet Theatre, Festival of Voices and Kickstart Arts. Julia Lezhneva with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, a collaboration with Hobart Baroque, was awarded Best Individual Classical Performance at the 2014 Helpmann Awards. Over the years, international touring has taken the orchestra to North and South America, Greece, Israel, South Korea, China, Indonesia and Japan.

    Neg(Oti)Ating Fusion: Steely Dan's Generic Irony by Ethan Krajewski A

    Neg(oti)ating Fusion: Steely Dan’s Generic Irony by Ethan Krajewski A thesis presented for the B.A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2018 © 2018 Ethan Patrick Krajewski To my parents for music and language Acknowledgements My biggest thanks go to my advisor, Professor Julian Levinson, as a teacher, mentor, and friend, for helping me think, talk, write, and (most importantly, I think) laugh about seventies rock music. You’ve helped make this project fun in all of its rigor and relaxed despite all of the stress that it’s caused. I’d also like to thank Professor Gillian White for leading our cohort toward discipline, and for keeping us all grounded. Also for her spirited conversations and anecdotes, which proved invaluable in the early stages of my thinking. I wouldn’t be here writing this if it weren’t for Professor Supriya Nair, who pushed me to apply for the program and helped me develop the intellectual curiosity that led to this project. The same goes for Gina Brandolino, who I count among my most important teachers and role models. To the cohort: thank you for all of your help over the course of the year. You’re all so smart, and so kind, and I wish you all nothing but the best. To Ashley: if you aren’t the best non-professional line editor at large in the world, then you’re at least second or third. I mean it sincerely when I say that this project would be infinitely worse without your guidance.

    I'm an English Teacher,A Singer-Songwriter, Freelance Journalist, Andmusician

    I'm an English teacher,a singer-songwriter, freelance journalist, andmusician. I worked in radio and community radio as a deejay in the 1970s and later, cable television - public access, and CNN, when it began. I've begun looking for a publishers and artists for my songs. I recently moved to nashville as a step in getting serious about it!I also co-founded a non-profit in Georgia, the Chattahoochee Folk Music Society and worked there to promote local musicians. There's a singer-songwriter show on the WLPN? the local PBS radio affliate, once a week, plus some syndicated shows there. I hear "Progressive rock" which includes some Americana, on Lightning 100 FM; LIghtning also broadcasts live music from clubs a couple of times a week. I hear live broadcasts of the Grand Old Opry which is national talent but many are "local" to where I libve, Nashville, on WSM AM. In the town I moved from, Columbus, Georgia, we had a choice of classic rock and roll, done-to-death, or pop or mainstream country. Totally Homogenized music. I rarely listened. I feel there's a lot of room for other styles of music over the air; I fear that stations are "paid to play" and no matter how good a song is, it won't receive airplay without major money pushes, even if it arrives at a station and deejays and community like it; I fear the monopolization of the airwaves. I think nashville is lucky to have the few offerings on the air of local music that it does have; but things could be even better.
