  • Soprano Cornet
    SOPRANO CORNET: THE HIDDEN GEM OF THE TRUMPET FAMILY by YANBIN CHEN (Under the Direction of Brandon Craswell) ABSTRACT The E-flat soprano cornet has served an indispensable role in the British brass band; it is commonly considered to be “the hottest seat in the band.”1 Compared to its popularity in Britain and Europe, the soprano cornet is not as familiar to players in North America or other parts of world. This document aims to offer young players who are interested in playing the soprano cornet in a brass band a more complete view of the instrument through the research of its historical roots, its artistic role in the brass band, important solo repertoire, famous players, approach to the instrument, and equipment choices. The existing written material regarding the soprano cornet is relatively limited in comparison to other instruments in the trumpet family. Research for this document largely relies on established online resources, as well as journals, books about the history of the brass band, and questionnaires completed by famous soprano cornet players, prestigious brass band conductors, and composers. 1 Joseph Parisi, Personal Communication, Email with Yanbin Chen, April 15, 2019. In light of the increased interest in the brass band in North America, especially at the collegiate level, I hope this project will encourage more players to appreciate and experience this hidden gem of the trumpet family.

  • 19Th INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS on ACOUSTICS MADRID, 2-7 SEPTEMBER 2007
    19th INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON ACOUSTICS MADRID, 2-7 SEPTEMBER 2007 Acoustic measurements along the history of saxophone: from Adolphe Sax to vintage instruments. PACS: 43.75. Vincent Gibiat1 Hamid Louaked2 Jerôme Selmer2 1University Paul Sabatier PHASE 118 route de Narbonne 31062 TOULOUSE Cedex 9 France ; [email protected] 2Henri Selmer Paris 18 rue de la fontaine au roi 75011 PARIS France; [email protected] ABSTRACT A complete collection of alto saxophones belonging to the successors of Adolphe Sax factory (Henri Selmer Paris) beginning with Adolphe Sax instruments (1856) followed by all the different models produced all along the twentieth century has been acoustically studied. Model 22, 26, 28, Radio improved, Balanced Action as well as the mythic Mark VI or unique instruments based on a factory model and realised for a special event have been studied to follow the evolution of what is both an historic instrument and a popular one. As these instruments are all in playable conditions impedance measurements on all the possible fingerings have been obtained. Sound recordings have also been realised on chromatic scales and short musical excerpts. We present the synthetic results obtained that show the continuity between Adolphe Sax production and the earlier Selmer Instruments, then the quality and homogeneity gap between some different models. Through the evolution the musician demands on sound quality appear clearly. These historic instruments have also been compared to the most recent models showing an evolution and a preservation of the historic sound that is certainly not finished. INTRODUCTION Both ancient and popular the saxophone has a peculiar place in music history.

  • An Analysis of Géza Frid's Concerto for Clarinets, Op. 82 (1972
    1 An Analysis of Géza Frid’s Concerto for Clarinets, Op. 82 (1972): Rediscovered repertoire by a Hungarian, Jewish, Dutch composer Géza Frid (1904-1989) was a significant Hungarian-born Dutch composer and pianist of Jewish descent. His compositional style was highly regarded in the Dutch musical scene of the 20th century; his music has been programmed on multiple occasions by the Concertgebouw Orchestra and in 1949 and 1954 won the City of Amsterdam Music Award. Major influences on Frid’s musical development started in his native Hungary where he studied with Béla Bartók and Zoltan Kodaly before his move to the Netherlands. In 1972, he composed a significant concerto for B-flat, A, E-flat and bass clarinets (Op. 82) and dedicated it to George Pieterson, principle clarinet with the Concertgebouw Orchestra. Scholarly discussions of Géza Frid’s clarinet music are not to be found in either the US based International Clarinet Society’s The Clarinet, or in the Dutch based De Klarinet. Intensive World Cat library searches have yielded no recordings of this piece, and currently there is not even one recording of Frid’s Concerto for Clarinets on YouTube or in the Naxos Music Library. The Concerto for Clarinets is an effective and interesting piece providing a significant addition to the standard clarinet repertoire; the goal of this research is to introduce and promote this hitherto unknown work to the worldwide clarinet community. Save for some short selections on the Géza Frid website set up by his dedicated son, Arthur Frid, and a Wikipedia article, no translations exist of Géza Frid’s autobiographical material1.
