  • For a Lark the Poetry of Songs
    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS PROGRAMA EM TEORIA DA LITERATURA FOR A LARK THE POETRY OF SONGS Telmo Rodrigues DOUTORAMENTO EM ESTUDOS DE LITERATURA E DE CULTURA TEORIA DA LITERATURA 2014 Universidade de Lisboa Faculdade de Letras Programa em Teoria da Literatura FOR A LARK THE POETRY OF SONGS Telmo Rodrigues Dissertação orientada por: PROFESSOR DOUTOR ANTÓNIO M. FEIJÓ PROFESSOR DOUTOR MIGUEL TAMEN Doutoramento em Estudos de Literatura e de Cultura Teoria da Literatura 2014 Acknowledgments The work for this thesis was done under a fellowship granted by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT): the time granted to think is priceless, and I am indeed thankful for being allowed to benefit from it. During this period I have also benefited from the resources put at my disposal by my host institution, the Nova Institute of Philosophy (IFILNOVA). Professor António Feijó has been teaching me since my first year of undergraduate studies and Professor Miguel Tamen since I started graduate studies: I am still to this day amazed at the luck I have for being given the opportunity to work with both of them, and my gratitude for their efforts and enthusiasm in crafting this thesis is immeasurable. As a student of the Program in Literary Theory I must extend my thanks to Professor João Figueiredo, who is an integral part of the Program and with whom I have learnt many valuable things about art. When writing a thesis, a friend who enjoys editing is a blessing one must always be thankful for; in any case, I would gladly dismiss Helena’s editing skills for the friendship which has shaped this work beyond recognition and, necessarily, beyond any written acknowledgment.

  • Classical Thesis Draft
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE SCHOOL OF MUSIC SOUNDSCLASSICAL.COM: INTRODUCING CLASSICAL MUSIC THROUGH COMPARISON WITH MODERN MUSIC EDWARD SUNDRA SPRING 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Music with honors in Music Reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark Ballora Associate Professor, Music Technology Thesis Supervisor, Honors Adviser Charles Youmans Professor of Musicology Faculty Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This thesis serves as a steppingstone for a larger project which aims to build a website introducing classical music to a broad audience in new and innovative ways. Soundsclassical.com is distinct from other introductory websites in that it attempts to bridge the gap between the classical and modern music worlds more effectively than many other introductory classical websites do. In this thesis, there are two sections: 1) reviews of other classical music websites and ways they are less effective than they could be, and 2) a series of articles that demonstrate some of the content that will eventually be on Soundclassical.com. These medium-length articles compare certain modern genres and/or artists to classical equivalents, in order to create stronger emotional and contextual ties between seemingly unrelated composers and their work. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Figures ...........................................................................................................................iii

Walk with me Like lovers do Talk with me Like lovers do1 Pretend for a moment that we can walk together, like lovers do, or like a mother and her child –who are also lovers, but of a different kind. Or even, like walking a little old lady across the street— I’ll let you decide who is who—a loving gesture of yet another order; the kindness of strangers. What more could we wish for? Let’s think about that, while we walk toward the Wishing Well. Exit through the front door and turn right. Turn right again around the corner of the villa past the gated archway and onto the flagstone path.

    WILDERNESS TRACKS ELIZABETH ALKER RESOURCES Here are some resources linked to projects and topics discussed during this episode. Track list from this episode: See all the tracks mentioned in this episode here. https://timberfestival.org.uk/the-wilderness-tracks/ Unclassified: Tune in to Elizabeth’s show on BBC Radio 3, where she celebrates a new generation of unclassified composers. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b02sl2 SPEAKERS Elizabeth Alker, Geoff Bird TRANSCRIPT Geoff Bird 0:09 Welcome to Wilderness Tracks recorded at the Timber Festival in the National Forest. In each edition a writer, artist or musician, tells me Geoff Bird about six songs that somehow connect them with nature. Elizabeth Alker broadcasts on BBC Radio Three and Six Music. She's a great champion of those artists taking the best from both classical and pop traditions to find new and exciting ways of creating music. The reason I was really keen to get you to do this is because you seem to me the future somehow, in that you work as nimbly on six music, as you do on radio three. And maybe it's something to do with my age. But that's exactly where my crosshairs at the moment is a past in popular music and a future into more classical stuff that's borne out by these selections. And I'm wondering, how conscious are you of the fact that you kind of seem to be straddling all sorts of musical worlds in the work that you do? Elizabeth Alker 1:13 Yeah, I'm aware of it.

  • Great Albums
    Last Update: 14/4/13 – Changes & additions since the December 2010 version highlighted thusly 1936 Robert Johnson The Complete Recordings 1937 By universal acknowledgment, the greatest of the Old Masters of acoustic blues. It’s said that Eric Clapton wouldn’t even talk to you in the 1960s if you were not au fait with Robert Johnson. This is one of the exceptions in which I’ve allowed a “best of” compilation. I just had to in this case. There weren’t any albums in the 30s. 1959 Miles Davis Kind Of Blue He could play the trumpet a bit. This is arguably the best known full-on jazz album of all time. It had just enjoyed its 40 th anniversary on first compilation of this list. I’m not qualified to write about Miles Davis, but this I know. Despite his tetchy character, especially in defence of blacks against the white establishment (understandably), he did not come from a typical poor black background. His family were quite affluent and middle class, in as far as it was possible for blacks to be middle class in the US at that time. 1964 John Coltrane A Love Supreme He could play the sax a bit. The album was the result of Coltrane’s sudden religious awakening in 1957. Brilliant – apart from the embarrassing vocals. You're getting jazz and old-time blues up to '64 because The Great Musical Reinvention had not yet happened - but it was just around the corner... 1965 Jackson C Frank Jackson C Frank Aficionados know that this is the best folk album of all time.
