  • Thefairophelia Joseph Summer’S the Shakespeare Concerts Series
    Joseph summer’s The Shakespeare Concerts Series 2 TheFairOphelia Joseph summer’s The Shakespeare Concerts Series The Fair Ophelia is the second offering in Navona’s THE SHAKESPEARE CONCERTS SERIES, consisting of diverse settings of Ophelia’s mad scene and Gertrude’s reflection on Ophelia’s death from Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark by Berlioz, Brahms, Schumann, Saint-Saëns, Strauss, Cage, and Summer. The parallax views of Ophelia experienced by the composers present the listener with an unusual opportunity to hear Ophelia in a three dimensional perspective. Is this tragic Shakespearean maiden mad because she’s angry with those characters who inhabit her world, or should we be angry with those characters who inhibit her predilections, and thus have made mad the hapless heroine? The next offering in Navona’s THE SHAKESPEARE CONCERTS SERIES is GODDESSES, featuring The Tempest’s three goddesses: Juno, Ceres, and Iris in a setting of Honour, Riches, Marriage-Blessing by Joseph Summer. Other highlights are Andrea Chenoweth singing Ariel songs by Thomas Linley accompanied by Massachusetts’ renowned period ensemble, Arcadia Players, under the direction of Ian Watson; mezzo-soprano Kellie Van Horn performing Shall I compare Thee To A Summer’s Day with Jessica Lizak on flute; and In The Old Age Black Was Not Counted Fair with tenor Luke Grooms, baritone Paul Soper, and Clark Matthews on French horn. 2 Program Notes BY JOSEPH SUMMER 3 Introduction There being a myriad of interpretations of the character of Ophelia from Shakespeare’sThe Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Den- mark, when it was time for me to create program notes for the 2012 concert, it seemed to me that like the program itself, within which seven composers’ interpretations were realized, the program books should reflect this diversity; ergo, instead of creating a singular template from which every copy would be manufactured, I drew up many different versions.

Wiederkehr Master of Arts School of Music and Dance September 2015 Title: The Role of Music Theory in Music Production and Engineering Due to technological advancements, the role of the musician has changed dramatically in the 20 th and 21 st centuries. For the composer or songwriter especially, it is becoming increasingly expected for them to have some familiarity with music production and engineering, so that they are able to provide a finished product to employers, clients, or listeners. One goal of a successful production or engineered recording is to most effectively portray the recorded material. Music theory, and specifically analysis, has the ability to reveal important or expressive characteristics in a musical work.

CZECH (Under the Direction of John Weaver) ABSTRACT This project opens space for looking at the world in a musical way where “jamming” with music through playing and listening to it helps one resist a more standardized and dualistic way of seeing the world. Instead of having a traditional dissertation, this project is organized like a record album where each chapter is a Track that contains an original song that parallels and plays off the subject matter being discussed to make a more encompassing, multidimensional, holistic, improvisational, and critical statement as the songs and riffs move along together to tell why an arts-based musical way of being can be a choice and alternative in our lives.

Donators flowed in and out to give around one pint of blood to help people in need. Even with the 2 hour delay, the drive went by smoothly and there were many students, staff members, and others who were able to participate. There is always a need for blood donations, but with the recent forest fires in California along with other situations, the Red Cross is looking for as many donations as they can get. The National Honor Society will be holding another blood drive in March, so if you are eligible to donate, please consider participating!

    Journal of the Music & Entertainment Industry Educators Association Volume 11, Number 1 (2011) Bruce Ronkin, Editor Northeastern University Published with Support from Music Industry Administration in the Digital Age – A brief description of the evolution of current industry practices and some of the challenges to come: Will our college graduates possess the necessary skills to enter this marketplace? Melissa Wald Middle Tennessee State University Introduction The conversation regarding digital media and the transformation that has occurred in the music industry has been the subject of many articles over the past decade. While it is the hope of the industry that the digital formats and sources will continue to increase and fill the void of the lost physical format sales, it remains a fact that the overall income from the sale of music has contracted. The value of the global recorded music in- dustry has dropped 31% over the years 2004-2010.1 What is not often discussed is the impact that this event, most nota- bly the release of iTunes 1.0 in January of 2001, has had upon the admin- istration departments for both record labels and music publishers.2 While income has decreased, the amount of licensing and resulting data that must be managed has grown exponentially. Employees in these departments are now required to possess basic music licensing and accounting knowledge as well as advanced data management and analysis skills. This paper provides an overview of some of the history of, and changes in, industry practices with respect to the royalty administration of copyrights contained on both physical and digital products and the ad- ministrative problems associated with the rapid growth of new formats such as streaming, tethered downloads, and subscription services.

  • In Conversation with Bruce Cockburn
    IN CONVERSATION WITH BRUCE COCKBURN BY M.D. Dunn Bruce Cockburn laughs a lot. It might surprise people familiar with only his heavier songs or the many causes he has championed. He even makes jokes, clever and funny jokes. His conversation is punctuated by belly laughs and a wit that runs from dry and cutting to outright silliness. Truth is, this legendary songwriter doesn’t recognize his own legend. Throughout his 50-year career, which he calls a “careen,” Cockburn has participated in numerous grassroots actions: working to help ban landmines in Mozambique and elsewhere, supporting the Haida and the Lubicon Cree in land rights disputes, promoting sustainable farming, and witnessing the desperation of refugees in Central America. Many of these concerns end up in his songs and have perpetuated the image of a cold intellectual, a worldly and jaded observer of human folly. WINTER / HIVER 2020 15 His autobiography, Rumours of Glory (Harper Collins, 2014), is one of the most impressive and articulate musical memoirs in recent memory. While the book does discuss Cockburn’s life, it is more accurately a document of some of the major conflicts and cultural developments of the late 20th century. Like its author, the memoir looks outward, always working to recognize truth behind appearance. He has also championed literature in an artform that often draws from humanity’s baser interests. His lyrics are precise, often narrative in form, sometimes brutal. Yet, listening closely, there is also humour, faith, and undaunted hope. The song “Maybe the Poet” from the 1984 album Stealing Fire argues for the importance of poetry, even if it goes unacknowledged by the greater culture.
