Værket var ligeledes inspireret af Le réveillion (Midnatsnadver) som blev opført i Boudeville, et skuespil af Henri Meilhac og Ludovic Halévy. Karl Haffner fra Wien, kombinerede de to skuespil og opførte værket i Wien. Johann Strauss II besluttede sig for at komponere en operette baseret på dette skuespil, men kæmpede med at tilpasse den franske kultur i Le réveillion til traditionerne i Wien. Derfor valgte han at ændre Le réveillion til et wiener-bal. I ouverturen indgår arier fra selve operetten. Carl Nielsen Fløjtekoncert FS 119 Carl Nielsens Fløjtekoncert FS 119 er en af de mest spillede fløjtekoncerter fra den moderne æra, og det er et yderst vanskeligt stykke for musikerne. Nielsen bekymrede sig aldrig om at skrive store koncerter, for han reserverede de storladne stykker til sine symfonier. Hans violinkoncert er generelt skrevet i en mere traditionel og harmonisk stil, mens hans fløjtekoncert mere reflekterer en 1920’er-stil. Denne koncert formidler fløjtenisten Holger Gilbert-Jespersens forfinede og detaljerede spillestil. Trombonen har en interessant rolle i koncerten og virker som en stærk kontrast til fløjtens fine spil. Stykket havde premiere 21. oktober 1926 i Paris, men Nielsen færdiggjorde kompositionen i 1927. I 1921 var Nielsen bjergtaget af den københavnske blæserkvintet og musikernes individuelle øvning til stykker af Mozart. I samme år komponerede han blæserkvintetten, som indeholdt den unikke lyd af alle fem træblæsere, og samtidig lovede han en koncert til hver af musikerne. Det første stykke, der opfyldte dette løfte, var fløjtekoncerten til fløjtenisten Holger Gilbert-Jespersens. Denne koncert indeholder to satser, hvilket er unikt for en koncert. FØRSTE SATS I denne sats kræver Nielsen at musikerne skaber en raffineret dissonans og tilføjer, at “mu- sikken bør improviseres så meget som muligt, hvor solisten spiller som søger de efter noget”. Denne sats består mest af fløjtesoloer, interaktion mellem fløjten og resten af orkesteret samt interaktion mellem basun og klarinet. Generelt indeholder satsen interaktioner mellem fløjtenisten og kammermusikken, og mellem forskellige instrumenter. Der er et uventet trompetstykke efter solopassagen efterfulgt af fløjtens cantabile tema. Korean Symphony Orchestra DR Koncerthuset 2018/19 4 Om musikken ANDEN SATS Anden sats opløser den harmoniske dissonans, som afslutter første sats. Den begynder i A-dur og pulserer mellem et rondo-agtigt allegretto-afsnit i to fjerdedele og adagio-afsnittet i tre fjerdedele. Dette efterfølges af et march-agtigt afsnit i seks ottendedele. Satsen afslut- tes med et levende harmonisk afsnit, der begynder med en trombone. Dong Sun Chae Bird, Bird (Seya, Seya) Fugl, fugl er et koreansk børnerim, der ofte synges af børn. Det er en traditionel koreansk folkesang, som omhandler folkets sorg og sorgen ved Bong-Jun Jeons nederlag, lederen af Donghak bonderevolutionen, også kendt som Mung-bønnekrigeren. Det synges over hele landet stort set uden tekstvariationer. Ingen ved, hvordan sangen oprindeligt opstod, selv om der findes enkelte fortællinger. Den bredest accepterede fortælling er, at folk mener, solsorten i sangen repræsenterer japanske soldater i blå uniformer under Donghak-bonderevolutionen i 1894. Mung- bønnemarken, der nævnes i sangen, repræsenterer Bong-Jun Jeon, eftersom han blev omtalt som Mung-bønnekrigeren, og de Cheongpo-handlende symboliserer folket. Dong Jin Kim New Arirang (Sin Arirang) Mange versioner af denne sang begynder med at beskrive de trængsler, sangens hovedperson møder på sin vej over et bjergpas. Arirang er et navn for dette pas; derfor titlen på sangen. Der findes hundredvis af varianter af sangen, og de kan grupperes i klasser baseret på teksten, hvornår omkvædet synges, omkvædets type, den generelle melodi etc. Titlerne på de forskellige versioner foranstilles normalt enten af det sted, de kommer fra, eller det, der ellers adskiller dem. Den originale udgave af Arirang er Jeongseon Arirang, som blev sunget i Jeongseon- regionen i mere end 600 år. Men den mest berømte version af Arirang er den, der stammer fra Seoul. Det er den såkaldte Bonjo Arirang, selv om den faktisk ikke er ‘Bonjo’ (standard). Den kaldes typisk simpelthen Arirang og er relativt ny. Den blev først gjort populær, da den blev brugt som kendingsmelodi i Koreas første spillefilm Arirang fra 1926. Denne version af sangen kaldes nogle gange for Bonjo Arirang, Sin (ny) Arirang eller Gyeonggi Arirang, fordi dens herkomst reelt er fra Seoul, som tidligere var del af Gyeonggi-provinsen. Korean Symphony Orchestra DR Koncerthuset 2018/19 5 Om musikken Peter Tjajkovskij Russisk dans (Trepak) fra Nøddeknækkersuite nr. 1, opus 71a Tjajkovskij udvalgte otte numre fra balletten før premieren i december 1892, der kom til at udgøre Nøddeknækkersuiten, opus 71a, og som var beregnet til koncertopførelse. Suiten blev første gang opført den 19. marts foran en forsamling fra St. Petersborg-grenen af Den Russiske Musikforening med komponisten selv som dirigent. Handlingen i Nøddeknækkersuiten opus 71 er baseret på E.T.A. Hoffmans eventyr Nøddeknækkeren og Musekongen. Balletten handler om en lille pige, der får en nøddeknækker i julegave. Den er formet som en soldat. Hun falder i søvn og drømmer, at alle julegaverne bliver levende og slås mod musekongen og hans hjælpere. Hendes nøddeknækker forvandles til en prins, som tager hende med til et fortryllet kongerige, hvor hans undersåtter får mulighed for at underholde hende med danse fra mange eksotiske steder. Nøddeknækkersuiten Op. 71a består af de mest farvestrålende og kendte temaer fra den elskede ballet, inklusiv en miniature-ouverture i præludiet (i balletten en ouverture, men “miniature” er tilføjet til suiten), seks karakteristiske danse (Marts, Sukkerblomme- feen, Russisk Dans (Trepak), Arabisk Dans, Kinesisk dans, Legetøjsfløjternes Dans), og Blomsternes Vals. I dag hører vi een af sangene, Trepak, som er en russisk bondefolkedans karakteriseret af et intenst og hurtigt tempo. Giuseppe Verdi Pace, pace mio dio! fra operaen ‘Skæbnens magt’ De fleste operaer af Giuseppe Verdi indeholder karakterer, som hvirvles rundt af skæbnens kastevinde. Skæbnens magt er den mest tragiske historie af dem alle, hvor de tre unge hovedpersoner ødelægges af deres skæbne. Operaen, som baserer sig på det spanske drama, Don Álvaro o la fuerza del sino, skrevet af Ángel de Saavedra, havde premiere i 1862 ved Mariinskij teatret efter efterspørgsel fra det russiske kejserrige. På grund af den æra, operaen blev komponeret i, grupperes den med Simon Boccanegra, Maskeballet og Don Carlos. Sammenlignet med Verdis populæreste operaer, Rigoletto eller La Traviata, har strygersektionen langt mere dybde og er mere udviklet i denne opera. Korean Symphony Orchestra DR Koncerthuset 2018/19 6 Om musikken Antonín Dvořák Rusalkas sang til månen Den tjekkiske opera Rusalka af Antonín Dvořák består af tre akter og betragtes som den næstmest populære opera i Tjekkiet næst efter Den Solgte Brud af Bedřich Smetana Dvořák skrev sangene mellem april og november i år 1900, hvilket betragtes som hurtigt indenfor komposition. Han modtog ros ved den første premiere i 1901. Operaen handler om en fe, som forelsker sig i en prins. Værkets fine melodi, de dramatiske effekter

  • Development of Flood Damage Regression Models by Rainfall Identification Reflecting Landscape Features in Gangwon Province, the Republic of Korea
    land Article Development of Flood Damage Regression Models by Rainfall Identification Reflecting Landscape Features in Gangwon Province, the Republic of Korea Hyun Il Choi Department of Civil Engineering, Yeungnam University, 280 Daehak-Ro, Gyeongsan 38541, Gyeongbuk, Korea; [email protected]; Tel.: +82-53-810-2413 Abstract: Torrential rainfall events associated with rainstorms and typhoons are the main causes of flood-related economic losses in Gangwon Province, Republic of Korea. The frequency and severity of flood damage have been increasing due to frequent extreme rainfall events as a result of climate change. Rainfall is a major cause of flood damage for the study site, given a strong relationship between the probability of flood damage over the last two decades and the maximum rainfall for 6 and 24 h durations in the 18 administrative districts of Gangwon Province. This study aims to develop flood damage regression models by rainfall identification for use in a simplified and efficient assessment of flood damage risk in ungauged or poorly gauged regions. Optimal simple regression models were selected from four types of non-linear functions with one of five composite predictors averaged for the two rainfall datasets. To identify appropriate predictor rainfall variables indicative of regional landscape features, the relationships between the composite rainfall predictor and landscape characteristics such as district size, topographic features, and urbanization rate were interpreted. The proposed optimal regression models may provide governments and policymakers with an efficient flood damage risk map simply using a regression outcome to design or forecast rainfall data.

THE ROLE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT IN GOVERNMENT DECISION MAKING IN NEWLY DEMOCRATISED KOREA, FOCUSING ON THE ANTI-DAM PROTEST Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD by Myung Jun, Kim The University of Sheffield Department of Town and Regional Planning 2012 1 ABSTRACT This research started from a concern about the changing role of the environmental movement in government decision making in newly democratised Korea. Many empirical studies found that environmental movements in other transitional democracies reached their peak during the liberalisation of authoritarian regimes, and considerably declined after democratisation. Unlike these cases, the Korean environmental movement grew greatly after democratisation, but faced its decline later within civil society-friendly administrations (1998-2007). This trajectory raises questions about what actually happened between the government and the environmental movement in Korea. To explain this phenomenon, this research

Bogen er først og fremmest lavet til brug for undervisning, i hele det klassiske område på Radiohandlerskolen. Det har været en umulig opgave, at finde oplysninger på alle de nævnte komponister i bogen. Først og fremmest fordi der næsten ikke findes levnedsbeskrivelser på mange af de "små" komponister. Men de allerfleste er nævnt for at give et helhedsindtryk af hvor mange der virkelig har været. Ideen til bogen fik jeg for snart to år siden fordi jeg manglede overblik over hvad klassisk (se ordliste ) musik egentlig er. Det var denne interesse der gav mig sparket til at få læst og hørt en masse. Min fascination af den klassiske musik har mange år på bagen, og det har derfor været mig muligt at opbygge en forholdsvis stor samling af klassisk musik der går lige fra 1100 tallets middelaldermusik til vores dages klassiske musik. Bogen skal opfattes som en nem tilgang til den klassiske musik. Så derfor har jeg valgt at dele bogen op i de karakteristiske tidsperioder bl. a. Ud fra et historisk synspunkt. Mange musikforskere skændes bravt om hvordan man egentlig inddeler dem. I denne bog er der gået noget let hen over hvorledes man deler perioderne ind fordi, jeg fra starten har valgt at stille bogen op i kronologisk rækkefølge efter år, men for nem hedens skyld er der dog holdepunkter. I indholdsfortegnelsen kan man hurtigt danne sig et overblik over musik perioderne og over komponisterne.
