  • Common and Noteworthy Instruments from 1750S-1800S' Eastern
    Common and Noteworthy Instruments from 1750s-1800s’ Eastern USA Emory Jacobs Faculty Sponsor: Dr. Scott Marosek Department of Music During the 1700s and 1800s, residents of the eastern seaboard of North America enjoyed a wide variety of instruments, many of them built for “contrast and variety.”1 Availability, on the other hand, was a different story. While few accounts of the musical scene in that time period exist for more rural settings, records of the area and the events of the period from 1750 through the 1800s paint an interesting picture of how specific social classes and needs determined an instrument’s popularity. At the time, instruments were highly controversial, especially among specific religious groups.2 The religious restrictions on music occurred in relatively isolated sub- cultures in America, whereas notable sources from Germany would spend a novel’s worth of pages praising how perfect the organ was and would carefully list the detail of instruments’ tuning, mechanisms, and origins.3 When comparing these European instrument lists or collections with confirmed colonial instruments, one finds that very few of the elaborate, most prized instruments were exported to North America. Even outside America’s religious institutions, instruments were sometimes considered profane.4 While some instruments and some musical styles escaped such stigma, other instruments and styles had more ominous ties or were considered inelegant; the violin and fiddle offer one illustration.5 The phenomenon suggests that American society’s acceptance of music may have been a sensitive or subtle affair, as the difference between the violin and fiddle is often described as the fiddle being a poorly crafted violin or, in some cases, as a different musical style performed on the violin.

  • Giovanni Ferrini Dell’Accademia Internazionale Giuseppe Gherardeschi Di Pistoia
    Ottaviano Tenerani LO SPINETTONE FIRMATO GIOVANNI FERRINI DELL’ACCADEMIA INTERNAZIONALE GIUSEPPE GHERARDESCHI DI PISTOIA Presso l’Accademia Internazionale d’Organo e di Musica Antica Giuseppe Gherardeschi di Pistoia si conserva uno spinettone apparentemente realiz- zato nel 1731 da Giovanni Ferrini (fig. 1).1 Figura 1. Lo spinettone di Pistoia, Accademia Internazionale d’Organo e di Musica Antica ‘Giuseppe Gherardeschi’. Foto dell’autore. 1 Questo strumento è già stato descritto in Stewart Pollens, ‘Three keyboard instruments signed by Cristofori’s assistant, Giovanni Ferrini’, The Galpin Society Journal XLIV, 1991, 77–93: 80 e sgg. Si veda anche Stewart Pollens, Bartolomeo Cristofori and the invention of the 111 Ottaviano Tenerani Si tratta di uno dei tre strumenti di questo tipo attualmente conosciuti, insieme ai suoi consimili attribuiti rispettivamente a Bartolomeo Cristofori (Museum für Musikinstrumente der Universität Leipzig, Lipsia, inv. n. 86) e al pisano Giuseppe Solfanelli (Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of American History, Washington D.C., inv. n. 60.1395).2 In questo breve scritto si renderà conto della storia del ritrovamento dello strumento di Pistoia, del suo ripristino funzionale e dei contesti ad oggi conosciuti riguardanti il suo utilizzo storico. Partendo dalle differenze tra i tre spinettoni ad oggi noti, proporremo inoltre alcune riflessioni sul suo funzionamento e sul possibile uso musicale dei registri, in particolare del 4 piedi. Origine dello strumento La storia del ritrovamento di questo strumento inizia nei primissimi anni Sessanta del Novecento quando il Capitolo di Pistoia decise di mettere in vendita il materiale che si trovava nelle soffitte del duomo, in locali a fine- stratura aperta e quindi parzialmente esposti alle intemperie.

While the main timeframe is Baroque, a few references are made to the late Medieval Period in determining the reason for the keyboard to more prominently emerge in the musical scene. As Baroque society develops and new genres are formed, different keyboard instruments serve vital roles unique to their construction.

    Vol. 48 • No. 1 December 2020 JOHN BRUCE YEH ICA Plays On! Anna Hashimoto Clarinet Works by Black Composers Krzysztof Penderecki’s Clarinet Works TO DESIGN OUR NEW CLARINET MOUTHPIECE WE HAD TO GO TO MILAN “I am so happy to play the Chedeville Umbra because it is so sweet, dark, so full of colors like when you listen to Pavarotti. You have absolutely all kind of harmonics, you don’t have to force or push, and the vibration of the reed, the mouthpiece, the material, it’s connected with my heart.” Milan Rericha – International Soloist, Co-founder RZ Clarinets The New Chedeville Umbra Clarinet Mouthpiece Our new Umbra Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece creates a beautiful dark sound full of rich colors. Darker in sound color than our Elite model, it also has less resistance, a combination that is seldom found in a clarinet mouthpiece. Because it doesn’t add resistance, you will have no limits in dynamics, colors or articulation. Each mouthpiece is handcrafted at our factory in Savannah Georgia Life Without Limits through a combination of new world technology and old world craftsmanship, and to the highest standards of excellence.
