  • Bach's Goldberg Variations
    Bach’s Goldberg Variations - A survey of the piano recordings by Ralph Moore Let me say right away that while I am well aware that Bach specified on the title page that these variations are for harpsichord, I much prefer them played on the modern piano in what is technically a transcription and venture to suggest that Bach would have loved the sonorities and flexibility of the modern instrument, even though it inevitably involves essentially faking the changes of register available on a double manual harpsichord. I hardly seem to be alone in this, in that, just as every great cellist wants to engage with the Cello Suites, so almost every great pianist seems to want to record his or her interpretation of the Goldbergs for posterity and the public appetite for recordings and performances on the pianoforte seems undiminished. I have accordingly confined this survey to that category; doubtless more authentic accounts on an original instrument have great merit but they lie beyond my scope, knowledge and experience; I have neither the acquaintance with, nor appreciation for, harpsichord versions to attempt a meaningful conspectus of them; nor, indeed, do I have the recording on my shelves and leave that task to a better-qualified reviewer. Here, however, is a good collective survey of the harpsichord recordings from The Classic Review aimed at the average punter like me. In common with many a devotee of this miraculous music, my own first encounter with it was via the second Glenn Gould recording when, many years ago, a cultivated girlfriend introduced me to it; it was love at first hearing (assisted, perhaps by my attachment to said lady, but that’s another story…).

  • The Artist Teaching of Alexander Goldenweiser: Fingers in Service to Music Junwei Xue © 2018
    The Artist Teaching of Alexander Goldenweiser: Fingers in Service to Music Junwei Xue © 2018 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. Chair: Steven Spooner Jack Winerock Michael Kirkendoll Ketty Wong Robert Ward Date Defended: 10 May 2018 The dissertation committee for Junwei Xue certifies that this is the approved version of the following doctoral document: The Artist Teaching of Alexander Goldenweiser: Fingering in Service to Music Chair: Steven Spooner Date Approved: 10 May 2018 ii Abstract This paper examines the life, teaching methods, and critical editions of Alexander Goldenweiser (1875-1961), a major figure of the Russian music scene in the first half of the twentieth century. A pianist, teacher, and composer, Goldenweiser left an important legacy with his teaching philosophy and editions of piano scores. Many of his students have become renowned pianists and teachers themselves, who have transmitted Goldenweiser’s teaching philosophy to their own pupils, thus strengthening the widely recognized Russian school of piano. An examination of his teaching methods reveals his teaching philosophy, which focuses on the development of a piano technique that seeks a faithful interpretation of the music scores. In his view, children should start taking piano lessons at an early age to acquire the necessary skills to master all sorts of passages in the piano literature, and to these purposes, he was influential in the creation of the Central Music School in Moscow, where musically-gifted children study the elementary and secondary school levels.

    Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals Secretariat provided by the United Nations Environment Programme THIRTEENTH MEETING OF THE CMS SCIENTIFIC COUNCIL Nairobi, Kenya, 16-18 November 2005 CMS/ScC.13/Inf.7 DRAFT INTERNATIONAL SINGLE SPECIES ACTION PLAN FOR THE WHITE-HEADED DUCK Oxyura leucocephala (Introductory note prepared by the Secretariat) The Single Species Action Plan for the White-headed Duck Oxyura leucocephala has been initiated as a joint initiative of AEWA, CMS and the European Commission. As regards CMS, the CMS Scientific Council at its twelfth meeting (Glasgow, April 2004) has approved in principle the co-funding by the Convention of a project aimed at extending the geographic scope the existing European Action Plan for the species. Initially, the plan was foreseen to be a EU plan only, but with the support and the legal framework of CMS and AEWA it was extended to cover the global range of the species. The drafting of the plan was carried out by BirdLife International and has been compiled by experts on the species from several organisations: Baz Hughes (WWT, UK) & James Robinson (RSPB, UK), Andy Green (Biological Station Doñana, Spain) and David Li & Taej Mundkur (Wetlands International-Asia) This final version is the result of a wide consultation amongst Range States within the species’ range, and all suggested amendments received through the official comments were incorporated. Consultation process within the EU took place via the Ornis Committee (the EU body for coordination of the implementation of the EU Birds Directive), and the plan was approved by the EU within the framework of that Committee.

  • Orchestra Sex Disparity: Experimental Evidence from Audience Members
    Orchestra Sex Disparity: Experimental Evidence from Audience Members Richard Gong* UC Berkeley This paper presents a novel experiment that recruits 191 experimental subjects on Ama- zon Mechanical Turk (MTurk). Experimental subjects listen to and judge musicians who per- form audio recordings of classical music. Subjects also guess what instruments various mu- sicians play given just their names. Experimental subjects recognize that some instruments are more commonly played by female musicians and others by male musicians. Yet, no sex discrimination is detected in musician performance ratings. 1 Introduction In classical music, the sound a musician produces when playing an instrument has paramount importance. Professional musicians and novice audience members largely believe the quality of a performance should be judged by sound (Tsay 2013; Mehr & Scannell & Winner 2018). Yet, orchestras, which have been historically male dominated, have not been welcoming to all musicians of strong ability. In 1982, Sabine Meyer toured the United States as the Berlin Philharmonic’s first female clarinetist. Despite a strong endorsement from orchestra’s principal conductor, Herbert von Karajan, orchestra members voted, 73 to 4, against offering Meyer a permanent position. Having won an audition, Ann Hobson Pilot joined the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) as a harpist in *e-mail: ([email protected]) Many thanks to Sydnee Caldwell for advising me through this senior thesis. 1 1969.

  • Rachmaninov (1873-1943)
    RUSSIAN, SOVIET & POST-SOVIET CONCERTOS A Discography of CDs and LPs Prepared by Michael Herman Sergei Rachmaninov (1873-1943) Born at Oneg, Novgorod Region. He had piano lessons from an early age but his serious training in composition began at the Moscow Conservatory where he studied counterpoint with Sergei Taneyev and harmony with Anton Arensky. He began to compose and for the rest of his life divided his musical time between composing, conducting and piano playing gaining great fame in all three. After leaving Russia permanently in 1917, the need to make a living made his role as a piano virtuoso predominant. His 4 Piano Concertos, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini and substantial solo piano works make him one of the world's most-performed composers. However, he also composed operas and liturgical choral works as well as other pieces for orchestra, chamber groups and voice.
