    THE COMMISSIONED FLUTE CHOIR PIECES PRESENTED BY UNIVERSITY/COLLEGE FLUTE CHOIRS AND NFA SPONSORED FLUTE CHOIRS AT NATIONAL FLUTE ASSOCIATION ANNUAL CONVENTIONS WITH A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FLUTE CHOIR AND ITS REPERTOIRE DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yoon Hee Kim Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2013 D.M.A. Document Committee: Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Dr. Russel C. Mikkelson Dr. Charles M. Atkinson Karen Pierson Copyright by Yoon Hee Kim 2013 Abstract The National Flute Association (NFA) sponsors a range of non-performance and performance competitions for performers of all ages. Non-performance competitions are: a Flute Choir Composition Competition, Graduate Research, and Newly Published Music. Performance competitions are: Young Artist Competition, High School Soloist Competition, Convention Performers Competition, Flute Choirs Competitions, Professional, Collegiate, High School, and Jazz Flute Big Band, and a Masterclass Competition. These competitions provide opportunities for flutists ranging from amateurs to professionals. University/college flute choirs perform original manuscripts, arrangements and transcriptions, as well as the commissioned pieces, frequently at conventions, thus expanding substantially the repertoire for flute choir. The purpose of my work is to document commissioned repertoire for flute choir, music for five or more flutes, presented by university/college flute choirs and NFA sponsored flute choirs at NFA annual conventions. Composer, title, premiere and publication information, conductor, performer and instrumentation will be included in an annotated bibliography format. A brief history of the flute choir and its repertoire, as well as a history of NFA-sponsored flute choir (1973–2012) will be included in this document.

  • Download the FLUTE of WAYMAN ALEXANDER CARVER
    1 The FLUTE of WAYMAN ALEXANDER CARVER Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: July 2, 2011 2 Born: Portsmouth, Virginia, Dec. 25, 1905 Died: May 6, 1967 Introduction: From the very first day I heard Wayman Carver‟s flute on the Spike Hughes sessions, I have been a great fan. Not only was he the first (together with Alberto Socarras) to improvise on flute, but he was more than just a pioneer on that instrument. His soli certainly have lasting qualities for musical and not only for historical reasons. He might have recorded more extensively, if he had chosen an instrument less „modest‟! His sound was probably not among the loudest ones on Chick Webb‟s dancing nights, therefore he never became a „name‟ to the public, not even the general jazz public. I sincerely believe he deserves a solography, although it is much too brief. Some years after writing Wayman Carver‟s solography in 1983 (Jazz Solography Series, Vol. 14), I met his daughter Avis and the whole family in Atlanta, a great pleasure for me! Together we made a website for his 100 years anniversary in 2005. History: Wayman Alexander Carver was bom December 25,1905 in Portsmouth, Virginia. His parents were Alexander and Catherine Carver. Wayman was the second bom of eight children – four boys and four girls. At an early age, Carver showed not only an interest in but talent for music. Both his father and uncle were accomplished musicians who played in the Metropolitan Marching Band of Portsmouth. The band was a combined jazz and marching band composed largely of “earmusicians”.

Fairly recently, Medical literature has addressed the following: ! 1. “The prevalence and incidence of musculoskeletal symptoms experienced by flautists” by Stanhope J, Milanese S, Occup Med (Lond). 2016 Mar. ! This study summarizes that it: “…precludes a clear understanding of the prevalence and location of musculoskeletal symptoms in flautists, although current evidence suggests that the prevalence is high…” ! 2. “Contributing factors, prevention, and management of playing-related musculoskeletal disorders among flute players internationally” by Lonsdale K, Laakso EL, Tomlinson V, Med Probl Perform Art. 2014 Sep;29(3):155-62 ! This study states: “…26.7% of all respondents were suffering from flute playing- related discomfort or pain; 49.7% had experienced flute playing-related discomfort or pain that was severe enough to distract while performing; and 25.8% had taken an extended period of time off playing because of discomfort or pain…” 3.”Incidence of injury and attitudes to injury management in skilled flute players” by Ackermann BJ, Kenny DT, Fortune J, Work. 2011;40(3):255-9. doi: 10.3233/ WOR-2011-1227. ! This study summarizes that: “…Flautists in this sample reported high rates of performance-related musculoskeletal disorders with the majority having been present for longer than 3 months…” ! ! Additionally, there are ongoing testimonials and inquiries in non-medical sources. Here are just a few, located easily on the internet. ! 1.

This project attempts to determine if graduate students in multiple woodwind degree programs are provided adequate access to jazz training or performance opportunities as part of the degree program. To meet the professional expectations in the field, multiple woodwind instrumentalists not only need to be able to play several woodwind instruments well, but also in a wide range of styles. In particular, players must be literate in jazz performance styles, primarily to be able to play in swing or big band style but also, occasionally, to improvise. Degree requirements that were available online from twenty-four universities that offer a graduate degree in multiple woodwinds were examined, in addition to the background and areas of expertise of some of the woodwind faculty.

  • Jazz Flute Written by Haley Conway in the Jazz World, the Flute Was Perfor
    Jazz Flute Written by Haley Conway In the jazz world, the flute was performed very little until the 1920s and it did not truly emerge as a solo instrument until the early fifties. Part of the reason that popularity was low for jazz flute was because of the low volume the flute could produce against a jazz ensemble. The principal instruments at during the 1920s that were trumpets, trombone, and saxophone because of the sound were big enough to fill a large hall. For a flute to have a chance at being heard within a large hall would involve the 3rd register during the entire solo. With the development of microphones, jazz flutes became more popular and they begin to revolutionize the flute in a jazz setting. For a flute player to be in jazz ensembles, it was important for musicians to learn multiple instruments. One of the best secondary instruments for a flute player to learn is the alto or tenor saxophone. The saxophone has similar fingering system and written musical range. It also interferes little with the flute embouchure and it forces the student to learn to project their sound to a greater extent. Compared to classical works that flute players are used to playing, jazz contains different articulations that makes the musician more aware of the music they are playing and gets them a chance to analyze chord progressions at a deeper level. Flute players also gain another musical experience that is not within classical music, which is improvising. This gives musicians another way to expand musically and to be able to express themselves.

  • Flute in Oxford Music Online
    14.3.2011 FluteinOxfordMusicOnline Oxford Music Online Grove Music Online Flute article url: http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com:80/subscriber/article/grove/music/40569 Flute [concert flute, cross flute, German flute, transverse flute]. (Fr. flûte , flûte traversière , flûte allemande , flûte d’Allemagne , traversière ; Ger. Flöte , Querflöte ; It. flauto , flauto traverso , traversa ). Term used to refer to a vast number of wind instruments, from the modern orchestral woodwind to folk and art instruments of many different cultures. See also ORGAN STOP . I. General 1. Acoustics. Generically, a flute is any instrument having an air column confined in a hollow body – whether tubular or vessel – and activated by a stream of air striking against the edge of an opening, producing what acousticians call an ‘edge tone’ (see ACOUSTICS, §IV, 7 ); flutes are therefore often called edge-tone instruments. The edge is generally referred to as ‘sharp’, although sharpness is by no means necessary and may even be a disadvantage, as for example, on the modern orchestral flute – most makers prefer a slightly rounded edge. The opening is either at one end of a tube, or in the side of a tube or vessel. The air stream may be shaped and directed by the player’s lips as on the modern orchestral flute; confined in a channel, or duct, which leads the air across the hole, as on the RECORDER or WHISTLE ; or produced by the wind, as in the bulu pārinda , a large (up to 10 metres in length) aeolian pipe hung in treetops in Southeast Asia. Where the air meets the edge it is divided, peeling off in vortices like miniature swiss rolls, alternately outside and inside the instrument.
