For Fans of Metal's Seamy, Unsavory Past, This Is a Great Time to Be Alive
Nevertheless, it features a few stomping, pop- metal nuggets in the form of the sprite “Sweet Surrender,” the slightly seedy “Trash Queen” and the messy-but-fun Gary Glitter cover “Alrite with the Boyz.” The band would go on to release two more albums with a dirtier, more street-oriented sound that lacked the personality and cheap charm of the first LP.

Citymusic Cleveland: a Conversation with Violinist Adele Anthony by Mike Telin
CityMusic Cleveland: a conversation with violinist Adele Anthony by Mike Telin After winning the 1996 Carl Nielsen International Violin Competition, Adele Anthony has enjoyed an acclaimed career as a concerto soloist, recitalist and chamber musician. On Thursday, March 12 at 7:30 in Mentor High School’s Performing Arts Center, CityMusic Cleveland will present the first of four free performances featuring Adele Anthony as soloist in Carl Nielsen’s Violin Concerto. (See our concert listings for additional times and locations.) The concerts, led by guest conductor Joaquin Valdepeñas, will also include Grieg’s Peer Gynt Suite No. 1 and Arvo Pärt’s Symphony No. 4, Los Angeles. During a recent telephone conversation I confessed to Adele Anthony that Nielsen’s Violin Concerto is a work with which I am not extremely familiar. “I hear that a lot,” she responded with a laugh. “And it’s too bad because I think it’s a beautiful work that people will appreciate. It has a very gripping opening. I found it to be very attractive from the first time I heard it.” Anthony’s first exposure to the piece was through her violinist father. “As a student in Germany, he studied with the great Hungarian violinist Tibor Varga, who’s recording of the concerto we had at home. My father told me that it is a fantastic piece and that I should learn it. I listened to it and thought it was great, and when I was older I did learn it, later entering the competition with it. And because of that win, I have been able to perform it a lot more than perhaps I would have otherwise.” The concerto is written in a melodic neo-classical style. -
Babes in Bondage: Indentured Irish Children in Philadelphia in The
Babes in Bondage: Indentured Irish Children in Philadelphia in the Nineteenth Century HE experiences of childhood, emotional, enhanced by the innocence of youth, and profoundly affecting, are a challenge Tto the imagination of the social historian. Children, even more than adults submerged in the mass of illiterate and inarticulate people in the past, are largely without historical chroniclers.1 Study of the influence of social customs, of home life, education and work life requires insight into the conditions of childhood. Not only were attitudes toward childhood different in the past from those of our own time, but there were types of juvenile experience quite different from contemporary forms of childhood participation. This is readily illustrated by the institution of child indentures in the nineteenth century. In Philadelphia the practice of legally binding children extended back to colonial times, from whence it was derived from England. Part of William Penn's original scheme for populating his vast holdings was a plan by which emigrants would be first indentured to captains of ships in England, and upon landing in Pennsylvania the indenture would then be sold to an American buyer.2 The institution of indenture was ancient, rooted in law and custom, and accepted as part of the economic and social life in the colonies. 1 The beginnings of a broader-based study of family and childhood have emerged in such studies as Shirley Glubock (ed.), Home Life and Child Care in Colonial Days (New York, 1969); Harvey L. Graff, "Patterns of Dependency and Child Development in the Mid- Nineteenth Century City: A Sample from Boston," History of Education Quarterly, XVII (1973), 12,9-143; Joseph F. -

Pre-concert conversations are sponsored by Washington University Physicians. 23 PROGRAM NOTES PAUL DUKAS Born October 1, 1865, Paris, France Died May 17, 1935, Paris, France The Sorcerer’s Apprentice If ever a piece of music was victim of its own success, it is surely Paul Dukas’ L’apprenti sorcier. Better known in this country as The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (a slightly inaccurate English translation of its title; more precise would be “The Apprentice Sorcerer”), it scored an immediate success and established Dukas, who was not yet 32, as one of France’s important new composers. Dukas’ inspiration for The Sorcerer’s Apprentice was “Der Zauberlehring,” a ballad-like poem written in 1796 by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Goethe’s poem gives a first-person account of the misadventure that befalls a young man who has been taken on as an apprentice to an aged magician. -

I was born on a farm of about 70 acres in a bowl shaped valley surrounded with mountains in South Armagh. My mother who died when I was 15 years of age was an O'Hanlon. Her family claimed direct descent from the Princes of Orior who before the plantation of Ulster were the traditional standard bearers to the O'Neills, Princes of Tyrone. The last chieftain of the O'Hanlon clan was Redmond 0'Hanlon who at the time of the plantation of Ulster in or about 1670 was serving as an officer in the French Army and had been awarded the title of Count by the French Government. My earliest recollection of my mother was her recounting to me the successes and adventures of her famous forebearer who returned to Ulster to drive the Sassanagh out and deal in particular with the undertakers who had murdered his Ulster kith and kin and taken possession of his family lands in the neighbourhood of Tanderagee, Co. Armagh. I was told how this same Redmond O'Hanlon gathered together a body of men who were prepared to take up the hazardous endeavour of an Irish Rapparee in order to harass and dispossess the planters who had taken over all the rich lands of the area. -
