The main intent is to aid instructors in their own lesson preparation, so most of the language and information is geared towards the adult, and not the student. It is not expected that all the information given will be used or that all activities are applicable to all settings. Teachers and/or parents can choose the elements that best meet the specific needs of their individual situations. Our hope is that the information will be useful, spark ideas, and make connections.

Playlist 12 - Wednesday, June 24Th, 2020
Legato in Times of Staccato Playlist 12 - Wednesday, June 24th, 2020 Curated by Music Director, Fouad Fakhouri William Dawson: Negro Folk Symphony William Dawson was a renowned African American composer, choir director, and professor who incorporated African American themes and melodies into his music. With the Negro Folk Symphony, Dawson aimed to “write a symphony in the Negro folk idiom, based on authentic folk music but in the same symphonic form used by the composers of the [European] romantic-nationalist school.” The work consists of three movements, each with its own programmatic subtitle. Dvorak: Serenade for Strings & Wind Dvořák composed his entire Serenade in E major for string orchestra in less than two weeks in May 1875. The piece is in five movements, and in the finale, the main theme from the first movement is quoted before the coda, effectively unifying the work. Overall, the piece is light and carefree, reflecting a happy and productive time in Dvořák’s life. The Serenade in D minor for wind instruments was also composed in just two weeks in January 1878. The winds play atop a foundation of cello and string bass, and like in the Serenade for Strings, the opening theme is quoted in the final movement to unify the piece. The work is Classical in form but Czech in character as Dvořák incorporated folk melodies and rhythms from his native Bohemian culture. The piece was dedicated to music critic Louis Ehlert who promoted Dvořák’s famous Slavonic Dances and helped to advance Dvořák’s musical career.

The series follows the family’s story for more than a century, from Theodore’s birth in 1858 to Eleanor’s death in 1962. Over the course of those years, Theodore would become the 26th president of the United States, and his beloved niece, Eleanor, would marry his fifth cousin, Franklin, who became the 32nd president. Together, they redefined the relationship Americans had with their government and with each other, and redefined, as well, the role of the United States within the wider world.

Although it is difficult to trace the origin of the French horn, it is generally accepted that it was developed in France during the 17th century • An outgrowth of the early primitive and the later sophisticated hunting horn, its value in the use of Fanfares was acclaimed during the reign of Louis XIII • It was also discovered that strange and wonderful musical effects could be had by inserting the hand in the bell • One of the first orchestral uses came in 1717 when Handel included the French horn in his score of the ''Water Music" • The modern instrument embodies a main tube measuring approximately 7 feet 4 inches in length, coiled in circles and finally expanding into a widely flared bell • As the French horn lends its importance to the value of the modern symphony orchestra, so too does the trained and reliable insurance office develop a modern and sensible insurance program for business and personal accounts • We would welcome an opportunity to analyze your need for complete protection.

Ferruccio Busoni Biography
Ferruccio Busoni His Life And Times Beginnings Youth in Italy The Prodigy is Heard Busoni as Composer Free at Last First Experiences Marriage Busoni as Editor Hitting his Stride Busoni as Conductor Masterpiece Unveiled America again Turandot /Die Brautwahl The Author Debuts Back on the Road Paris, D’Annunzio Opera’s Seduction Liceo Rossini War in Europe The Artist at 50 The Last Years Final Enthusiasms Last Days FERRUCCIO BUSONI - HIS LIFE AND TIMES The Busoni heritage begins in Spicchio, a little village on the north bank of the Arno, inhabited mainly by barge-men, one of whom bore the name. The family is thought originally to have come from Corsica. Though reasonably well-off in their day, the Busonis fell on hard times, and upon the father’s death, moved to Empoli. Additional misfortune followed when the second son of three, Giovanni Battista also died later of a long illness in 1860, his wife following shortly thereafter. From this group of three sons, it would be the eldest, Ferdinando who would produce the artist the world learned to know and cherish. In Empoli his siblings became prosperous makers of felt hats, but Ferdinando would have none of that. He hid himself in corners to read the classics and practice the clarinet. Nothing would alter his intention to be a musician of prominence; he was capricious, self-willed, hot-tempered and impatient. These qualities would, lifelong, result in a reputation as difficult, highly-strung, opinionated, quarrelsome and to some a jeffatore...the possessor of the “evil eye.” He was largely self-taught, attained a high degree of proficiency on his instrument, adopted a career as a travelling virtuoso. -
L'age D'or of the Chamber Wind Ensemble
L’Age d’or of the Chamber Wind Ensemble A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Ensembles and Conducting Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Danielle D. Gaudry BM, McGill University, 2000 BE, University of Toronto, 2001 MM, The Pennsylvania State University, 2009 Committee Chair: Terence Milligan, DMA ABSTRACT This document presents a narrative history of the chamber wind ensembles led by Paul Taffanel, Georges Barrère and Georges Longy in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Using different historical approaches, this study examines contemporaneous musical society and the chamber wind ensemble genre to explore the context and setting for the genesis of the Société de musique de chambre pour instruments à vents, the Société moderne des instruments à vents, the Longy Club and the Barrère Ensemble of Wind Instruments. A summary of each ensemble leader’s life and description of the activities of the ensemble, selected repertoire and press reactions towards their performances provide essential insights on each ensemble. In demonstrating their shared origins, ideologies, and similarities in programming philosophies, this document reveals why these chamber wind ensembles created a musical movement, a golden age or age d’or of wind chamber music, affecting the local music scene and continuing to hold influence on today’s performers of wind music. ""!! ! Copyright 2013, Danielle D. Gaudry """! ! ! ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to all those who have been a part of my journey, both in the completion of this document and over the course of this degree.
