    ARAGÓN AND VALÈNCIA Aragón and València “The jota is at its best with the scent of rosemary and fresh-plowed earth,” says the opening song on this CD. An infectious collection of danced and sung jotas, archaic threshing songs, May courting songs, struck zither tunes, raucous shawms and lyrical strings, travelling down from the mountains of Aragón to the fertile coast of València. The Spanish Recordings Alan Lomax made these historic recordings in 1952 while traveling for months through Spanish villages, under formidable physical and political circumstances, during the Franco regime. Covering the breadth of Spain, these songs and dance melodies constitute a portrait of rural Spain’s richly varied musical life, dispelling the common stereotypes of Spanish folk music. The Alan Lomax Collection The Alan Lomax Collection gathers together the American, European, and Caribbean field recordings, world music compilations, and ballad operas of writer, folklorist, and ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax. Recorded in 1952 by Alan Lomax.

  • Free Movement and Recognition of Qualifications in the European Union: the Case of Music Professionals
    Free movement and recognition of qualifications in the European Union: the case of music professionals MA European Law and Policy Janneke C. Vrijland October 2005 School of Social, Historical and Literary Studies Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Portsmouth and HEBO, Haagse Hogeschool Free movement and recognition of qualifications in the EU: the case of music professionals 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study is intended to provide an overview of legislation and issues at stake regarding the free movement of music professionals within the European Union, with an emphasis on the particular areas of regulated professions and diploma recognition. Hopefully this study will be of use to music professionals, music educators, policy makers and others active in the music sector. It is written from the viewpoint of music professionals who wish to receive clear and comprehensible information on their legal position when performing, studying or teaching abroad within the EU. Many interesting and related themes have been left out of this study, due to constraints in time and size, but hopefully these will be explored by others in future. My interest in this particular subject stems from my work for the ‘Association Européenne des Conservatoires, Académies de Musique et Musikhochschulen’ (AEC), for which I have been involved in several projects relevant to the mobility of music students and professionals. Through these projects it came to my notion that there was a definite need for one document or source compiling all relevant legislation, issues at stake combined with information per country and analyses. Special thanks goes to Professor Verwey for his academic advice and supervision and to my family and friends for their continuous support.

  • The Musical America Guide To
    February 2020 The Musical America Guide to Top COMPETITIONS Editor’s Note Compiling what is likely the most comprehensive Guide to Competitions available may seem like a straightforward task but, rest assured, it is not. The competitions we contact provide the usual information—application deadlines, eligibility rules, artistic disciplines, frequency, dates, fees, and more. But the application dates may not yet be set in stone (“late Spring 2022”), or the date has already passed but the competition has not (“December 3, 2019”/”June 3, 2020”), or the deadline has passed but can be stretched with a late fee attached, or maybe the applications are not even open yet. Additional variables: Is the competition national? International? Statewide? Continental? What about the jury members? Are any of them teachers and, if so, are their students allowed to compete? (That’s always a good one for discussion after the winners are announced.) Is there an equal number of men and women on the jury? Of performers and, say, general directors or other administrative types? Is the screening jury distinct from live/finals jury? Eligibility rules may seem straightforward, but the evidence indicates otherwise: In vocal competitions, the age range for men and women is different; the same can be said for multi-instrument contests. The hardest to categorize, both from an age and instrumental makeup, are the ensembles; in addition to the usual piano trio or string quartet, what about a group between five and nine pieces with no more than two pianos? Then there’s the ensemble age: some competitions set a youngest- and oldest-member age, others a median member age, others a sum of the parts.

    COMPLETE NATIONAL ANTHEMS OF THE WORLD: 2013 EDITION ORCHESTRATED BY PETER BREINER SLOVAK RADIO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA • SLOVAK STATE PHILHARMONIC, KOŠICE* PETER BREINER, CONDUCTOR When I started arranging and recording national anthems some 17 years ago, nobody expected the project would become so big and popular. In the meantime, it has been an important part of two Summer Olympics and numerous other sporting, cultural and social events. It’s hard to imagine the amount of time and work that has been invested into this endeavour, and it could not have been done without the incredible efforts and expertise of several anthem experts, all the musicians, but mainly without the extraordinary recording team that has been involved in this project from its beginning – sound engineer Otto Nopp and Ladislav Krajcovic. This is an extraordinary project and any other existing anthem collection does not come close, in completeness, quality of the research or the size of the orchestral forces used. Every time this album is updated and released, the reactions are always overwhelming - from uncountable press articles and radio/TV shows all the way to special archbishops’ blessings. I hope this latest version, with its unprecedented number of anthems, will be no less appreciated. Peter Breiner National anthems tell the story of the country, its hopes, its dreams, its goals, its struggles and its history. To learn a country’s national anthem is to get a deeper knowledge of the country, and knowledge of other nations is the first step towards cooperation and understanding between peoples. National anthems, as we know them today, started in Europe as praises to the ruler.
