  • Par Richard Baillargeon
    par Richard Baillargeon Pour la 3 e fois à Québec, la 2 e fois dans mon cas, et pour la première fois dans une prestation à l'intérieur, Paul McCartney nous offrait un généreux périple à travers son imposan- te production d'un demi-siècle en musique-chanson populaire. L'événement lançait sa nouvelle tournée Freshen Up , le lundi soir 17 septembre 2018, dix jours seulement après le lancement, dûment célébré par les fans de Beatles Québec, de son album Egypt Station . Pour ceux qui avaient opté pour la version VIP de l'événement, la fête avait commencé en milieu d'après-midi. Mais c'est plutôt en tant que fan 'simple citoyen' que je m'approchai du Centre Vidéotron vers 18h 30, billet de la section 209 en main. Déjà, des files de spectateurs se formaient et déambulaient lentement en direction de l'angle sud-est de l'amphithéâtre, là où se trouve l'accès principal. Sur la Place Jean-Béliveau, il était impossible de ne pas remarquer le bus à impériale (double-decker bus) aux couleurs de l'exposition Ici Londres du Musée de la civilisation. Au second étage du véhicule, le groupe Les Respectables créait l'ambiance avec leur mélange de mélodies beatlesques, de standards pop et de quelques-uns de leurs propres succès. Je décidai cependant de ne pas trop m'attarder, ayant déjà perçu des mouvements de foule du côté des portes. L'entrée se fit aisément, la quantité des postes de contrôle facilitant l'exercice. Ce fut une excellente idée d'entrer sur-le-champ car le flot des spectateurs allait dès lors se faire constant jusqu'au début du spectacle qui eut lieu vers 20h 10.

Please make certain that all electronic devices are turned off during the performance. The taking of photographs and use of recording equipment are not permitted in the auditorium. Introduction to Focus 2020 by Joel Sachs The seed for this year’s Focus Festival was planted in December 2018 at a Juilliard doctoral recital by the Chilean violist Sergio Muñoz Leiva. I was especially struck by the sonata of Rebecca Clarke, an Anglo-American composer of the early 20th century who has been known largely by that one piece, now a staple of the viola repertory. Thinking about the challenges she faced in establishing her credibility as a professional composer, my mind went to a group of women in that period, roughly 1885 to 1930, who struggled to be accepted as professional composers rather than as professional performers writing as a secondary activity or as amateur composers.

  • Coy Bowles, Member of the Two-Time GRAMMY Award Winning and Multi
    Coy Bowles, member of the two-time GRAMMY Award winning and multi-platinum Zac Brown Band, will release his first solo album ‘Love Takes Flight’ via Southern Ground Records, Inc. on October 5th. Growing up as an only child in Thomaston, GA, Bowles’ creativity was fueled by his unique ability to engage in a multitude of artistic endeavors. Teaching himself guitar at the age of ten, Coy actively pursued music, prophetically meeting future band mate, Zac Brown, at West Georgia University. It was fellow Zac Brown Band member, Clay Cook, who encouraged Coy to book the studio and record the album. “Life is a ever turning road and love and loss are a part of it. This album is my journal of how the last few years have affected me and how I learned to release and heal while living a life of major success with Zac Brown Band” states Bowles. A combination of loss and heartache are evident themes throughout the album. Specifically, Coy was affected by the losses of a mentor, a student, and a childhood friend. Most of the songs of heartache Bowles wrote on the road with Zac Brown Band. Bowles says “Relationships are hard and so is the loss after the realization that it's never going to work.” Other songs like ‘Love Train’ are about being in love and the world spinning beneath your feet. ‘Follow the Sun’ is about friends of Bowles who joined the military. Musicians on the record include long time Fellowship members Jordan Shalhoup and David Englehard, Atlanta's first call drummer Mark Cobb of Y-O-U and Yacht Rock and Nashville studio and session bassist and producer, Matt Mangano.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.
