    USING BAROQUE VOCAL MUSIC TO INTRODUCE HORN STUDENTS TO THE MUSICAL CONCEPTS OF EXPRESSION, ARTICULATION, PHRASING, AND TEMPO Angela K. Winter, B.M., M.M.

Using Baroque Vocal Music to Introduce Horn Students to the Musical Concepts of Expression, Articulation, Phrasing, and Tempo. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2014, 142 pp., bibliography, 65 titles. Baroque music is an area largely neglected in the music education of young horn students and wind players in general. Baroque horn repertoire is very demanding primarily due to the range. Baroque composers wrote for horn using the uppermost register of the instrument. In this range the partials are closer together, allowing for more melodic writing. This music requires an advanced level of technique, endurance, and ability. Often this repertoire is not suitable for students until they are well into their collegiate years of study. Frequently this music is performed on descant horns. Since only a small number of middle school and high school horn students continue to play after they leave their school band programs, they many never get first hand experience performing Baroque music. Vocal students are often introduced to Baroque arias early in their training.

Street Scene, a musical adaptation of the Pulitzer-Prize-winning play of the same name by Elmer Rice, was a collaboration between Weill and Harlem Renaissance poet Langston Hughes. Hughes took Weill to Harlem nightclubs to experience black American jazz and blues, in order to inspire the composer in his score-writing. Street Scene was lauded upon its premiere as a “true American opera” that highlighted the epidemic of poverty and greed in America, as well as the plight of immigrants, and remains one of the most often-performed American operas in the repertoire.

    Trumpets, Sackbuts and Kettledrums in Henry Purcell's Music

    TRUMPETS, SACKBUTS AND KETTLEDRUMS IN HENRY PURCELL'S MUSIC Lecture on the occasion of the 300th memorial day of Henry Purcell; November 1995 Prof. dr. Hans van Dijk In Henry Purcell's instrumentation it is noteworthy, that unto 1689 the instruments that were used, are the viole da gamba, strings, recorders, harpsichords, organs en exeptionally oboes (which does not mean that a bassoon should be added automatically). It is not until 1690 that the trumpet appears in his works, in operas, odes and welcome songs. In Purcell's works, from around 850 compositions, the trumpet and the kettledrums are seldom used. In the second half of the 17th century, the trumpet was almost exclusively used by the military, and the kettledrums were always linked to the trumpet. In the last six years of Purcell's life (1690-1695) trumpets and kettledrums came into use in civilian life. Let us start with a list of his works in which they appear.
