MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2018 This
MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2018 This is the fifteenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2017-November 2018). The 130 selections have come from 25 members of the team and 70 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources - I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, 8 have received two nominations: Mahler and Strauss with Sergiu Celibidache on the Munich Phil choral music by Pavel Chesnokov on Reference Recordings Shostakovich symphonies with Andris Nelsons on DG The Gluepot Connection from the Londinium Choir on Somm The John Adams Edition on the Berlin Phil’s own label Historic recordings of Carlo Zecchi on APR Pärt symphonies on ECM works for two pianos by Stravinsky on Hyperion Chandos was this year’s leading label with 11 nominations, significantly more than any other label. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2400 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year the choice was a little easier than usual. Pavel CHESNOKOV Teach Me Thy Statutes - PaTRAM Institute Male Choir/Vladimir Gorbik rec. 2016 REFERENCE RECORDINGS FR-727 SACD The most significant anniversary of 2018 was that of the centenary of the death of Claude Debussy, and while there were fine recordings of his music, none stood as deserving of this accolade as much as the choral works of Pavel Chesnokov. -

/VB3 / A/ O,(s0-02 A SURVEY OF THE RESEARCH LITERATURE ON THE FEMALE HIGH VOICE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Roberta M. Stephen, B. Mus., A. Mus., A.R.C.T. Denton, Texas December, 1988 Stephen, Roberta M., Survey of the Research Literature on the Female High Voice. Master of Arts (Music), December, 1988, 161 pp., 11 tables, 13 illustrations, 1 appendix, bibliography, partially annotated, 136 titles. The location of the available research literature and its relationship to the pedagogy of the female high voice is the subject of this thesis. The nature and pedagogy of the female high voice are described in the first four chapters. The next two chapters discuss maintenance of the voice in conventional and experimental repertoire. Chapter seven is a summary of all the pedagogy. The last chapter is a comparison of the nature and the pedagogy of the female high voice with recommended areas for further research. For instance, more information is needed to understand the acoustic factors of vibrato, singer's formant, and high energy levels in the female high voice. PREFACE The purpose of this thesis is to collect research about the female high voice and to assemble the pedagogy. The science and the pedagogy will be compared to show how the two subjects conform, where there is controversy, and where more research is needed. Information about the female high voice is scattered in various periodicals and books; it is not easily found. -

Beverly Sills, 1929-2007: a Beautiful Voice for Opera and the Arts
20 April 2012 | MP3 at voaspecialenglish.com Beverly Sills, 1929-2007: A Beautiful Voice for Opera and the Arts AP Opera singer Beverly Sills, right, with her daughter Muffy, and her mother Shirley Silverman, left, in this Dec. 19, 1988 photo at New York's Plaza Hotel STEVE EMBER: I’m Steve Ember. BARBARA KLEIN: And I’m Barbara Klein with PEOPLE IN AMERICA in VOA Special English. Today we tell about Beverly Sills. Her clear soprano voice and lively spirit made her one of the most famous performers in the world of opera. Sills worked hard to make opera an art form that the general public could enjoy. She spent the later part of her career as a strong cultural leader for three major performing arts centers in New York City. (MUSIC) STEVE EMBER: That was Beverly Sills performing a song from the opera “The Tales of Hoffman” by the French composer Jacques Offenbach. Sills is singing the role of Olympia, a female robot who keeps breaking down while singing a series of high notes. This difficult aria gives a good example of the sweet and expressive voice that made Beverly Sills famous. 2 AP The Brooklyn-born opera diva was a global icon of can-do American culture with her dazzling voice and bubbly personality BARBARA KLEIN: Beverly Sills was born Belle Silverman in nineteen twenty-nine. Her family lived in the Crown Heights area of Brooklyn, New York. Her father, Morris, came from Romania and her mother, Shirley, was Russian. Sills said that her father believed that a person could live the real American dream only with an educated mind. -
Story: 050 – the Singer Rarely Sailed Teller: Bob Sullivan & Jack Holland
Story: 050 – The Singer Rarely Sailed Teller: Bob Sullivan & Jack Holland The Singer Rarely Sailed Now and then, an interesting person or couple joins the Hillsboro Inlet Sailing Club. They are interesting be- cause of who they are, what they do professionally, or their take on sailing. When a couple has all three, they are certainly candidates for our history project. Curtis and Grace Rice could be the “poster” couple for this trifecta. They were HISC members from 1972 until 2002; therefore, they were almost founding members. During that span of thirty years, Sharon Holland’s archive collected many stories and images of the couple. Grace Panvini was a coloratura soprano singing professionally in New York City. One opera critic called her the best such singer of her time. Curtis Rice was also an opera singer, and, as you will find out shortly, an avid sailor. They were both stud- ying voice with Estelle Liebling at her studio in the City. Miss Liebling, an inter- esting person in her own right, had extraordinary range and flexibility that marked her singing and also characterized her teaching. She prepared singers, not only for the operatic stage but also for careers in popular music. Among the over eighty singers for the Metropolitan Opera, she instructed was Beverly Sills. Thus, Curtis and Grace were in outstanding company. One day Grace had two tickets for a performance of Faust, no date, and Curtis was Grace the only guy in the studio. She suggested that Curtis join her for the event. And that was the beginning of a lifelong relationship. -
