  • Ludwig-Musser 2010 Concert Percussion Catalog AV8084 2010
    Welcome to the world of Ludwig/Musser Concert Percussion. The instruments in this catalog represent the finest quality and sound in percussion instruments today from a company that has been making instruments and accessories in the USA for decades. Ludwig is “The Most famous Name in Drums” since 1909 and Musser is “First in Class” for mallet percussion since 1948. Ludwig & Musser aren’t just brand names, they are men’s names. William F. Ludwig Sr. & William F. Ludwig II were gifted percussionists and astute businessmen who were innovators in the world of percussion. Clair Omar Musser was also a visionary mallet percussionist, composer, designer, engineer and leader who founded the Musser Company to be the American leader in mallet instruments. Both companies originated in the Chicago area. They joined forces in the 1960’s and originated the concept of “Total Percussion.” With our experience as a manufacturer, we have a dedicated staff of craftsmen and marketing professionals that are sensitive to the needs of the percussionist. Several on our staff are active percussionists today and have that same passion for excellence in design, quality and performance as did our founders. We are proud to be an American company competing in a global economy. Musser Marimbas, Xylophones, Chimes, Bells, & Vibraphones are available in a wide range of sizes and models to completely satisfy the needs of beginners, schools, universities and professionals. With a choice of hammered copper, smooth copper or fiberglass bowls, Ludwig Timpani always deliver the full rich sound that generations of timpanists have come to expect from Ludwig.

  • Virtual Musical Field Trip with Maestro Andrew Crust
    YOUR PASSPORT TO A VIRTUAL MUSICAL FIELD TRIP WITH MAESTRO ANDREW CRUST Premier Education Partner Za The Conductor Today, you met Andrew Crust, the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s Assistant Conductor. He joined the VSO this season in September of 2019. He grew up in Kansas City, and his main instrument is the trumpet. He studied music education and conducting, and has worked with orchestras in Canada, the United States, Italy, Germany, the Czech Republic, Chile, and many other exotic places. The conductor keeps the orchestra in time and together. The conductor serves as a messenger for the composer. It is their responsibility to understand the music and convey it through movements so clearly that the musicians in the orchestra understand it perfectly. Those musicians can then send a unified vision of the music out to the audience. Conductors usually beat time with their right hand. This leaves their left hand free to show the various instruments when they have entries (when they start playing) or to show them to play louder or softer. Most conductors have a stick called a “baton”. It makes it easier for people at the back of large orchestras or choirs to see the beat. Other conductors prefer not to use a baton. A conductor stands on a small platform called a “rostrum”. To be a good conductor is not easy. It is not just a question of giving a steady beat. A good conductor has to know the music extremely well so that they can hear any wrong notes. They need to be able to imagine exactly the sound they want the orchestra to make.

  • A Replica of the Stretch Clock Recently Reinstated at the West End of Independence Hall
    A replica of the Stretch clock recently reinstated at the west end of Independence Hall. (Photograph taken by the author in summer of 197J.) THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY The Stretch Qlock and its "Bell at the State House URING the spring of 1973, workmen completed the construc- tion of a replica of a large clock dial and masonry clock D case at the west end of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, the original of which had been installed there in 1753 by a local clockmaker, Thomas Stretch. That equipment, which resembled a giant grandfather's clock, had been removed in about 1830, with no other subsequent effort having been made to reconstruct it. It therefore seems an opportune time to assemble the scattered in- formation regarding the history of that clock and its bell and to present their stories. The acquisition of the original clock and bell by the Pennsylvania colonial Assembly is closely related to the acquisition of the Liberty Bell. Because of this, most historians have tended to focus their writings on that more famous bell, and to pay but little attention to the hard-working, more durable, and equally large clock bell. They have also had a tendency either to claim or imply that the Liberty Bell and the clock bell had been procured in connection with a plan to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary, or "Jubilee Year," of the granting of the Charter of Privileges to the colony by William Penn. But, with one exception, nothing has been found among the surviving records which would support such a contention.

  • Molding & Machining: Metalwork in Geneva
    MOLDING & MACHINING: METALWORK IN GENEVA This is a story of change. In the mid-1800s, Geneva claimed the most foundries in western New York State. The metal industry accounted for almost 70% of the city’s jobs in the 1950s and remained strong until the 1970s. Today, Geneva has only one major metal fabrication company. Geneva was not near iron ore or coal but 19th-century canals and railroads allowed access to raw materials. Demand for new products, from farm equipment to heating systems, allowed foundries to flourish. New factories changed Geneva’s landscape and affected its environment. Ultimately, 20th-century changes in technology and economics – and failure to adapt to change – caused most of the city’s metal industry to disappear. A foundry melts refined iron and pours it into molds to create cast iron. It is brittle but, unlike wrought iron pounded out by a blacksmith, objects can be mass produced in intricate shapes. Molding room at Phillips & Clark Stove Company Machining is the shaping of metal, and other materials, through turning, drilling, and milling. Machining tools were powered by steam engines in the 19th century and later by electricity. Machinists bent sheet metal to make cans, stamped metal for tableware, and milled stock to create machine components. Tool Room at Herendeen Manufacturing Company, 1907 This is a companion exhibit to Geneva’s Changing Landscapes in the next gallery, which has more information and artifacts about local industry. Support for this exhibit is provided by Rosalind Nester Heid in memory of her grandfather Samuel K. Nester, Sr. The First Geneva Foundries Refineries require iron, sand, water, fuel, and people.
