Chorus of Angels “Erase the Saturday car-park from the market place—fade out the living—snap back the dead to life.” A Chorus of Angels takes us back 800 years, to a time when every book is a precious object “written on skin”. They bring to life two of the story’s protagonists: the Protector, a wealthy and intelligent landowner “addicted to purity and violence,” and his obedient wife—his “property” —Agnès. One of the angels then transforms into the third protagonist— “the Boy”—an illuminator of manuscripts. II. The Protector, Agnès and the Boy In front of his wife, the Protector asks the Boy to celebrate his life and good deeds in an illuminated book. It should show his enemies in Hell, and his own family in Paradise. As proof of his skill the Boy shows the Protector a flattering miniature of a rich and merciful man. -

When I was interviewing everyone running for junior staff, I asked each of them what their favorite silly band tradition was. I originally intended this to reduce tension and allow any nervous freshmen to relax with an easy frst question, but the responses I received highlighted many of the wonderful aspects of band. My most shocking takeaway from that question was that no two people had the same answer. All 24 people who were interviewed each had The Band caroling in downTown BosTon To spread The holiday spiriT a unique favorite tradition. While many we lead the band into its 100th year, answers were the ones I would expect: as many playing the bottle cheer. Looking maintaining its history and adding to it march down, flower/flour, confetti, forward, planning for the 100th Reunion is while we go. I’ve loved working with verse 2, cuts, and Bagpipes, there well underway. The reunion will take place on you all these past six months, and I were also many traditions the weekend of October 12th, 2019 when our have no doubts that you will all be great I had never even thought football team takes on Cornell.

t19I A/o.80 EVOLUTION OF THE ROLE OF THE SOLO TROMBONE IN THE NINETEENTH AND TWENTIETH CENTURIES DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS By Karl G. Hinterbichler, B.M., M.M. Denton, Texas May, 1974 Hinterbichler, Karl G., Evolution of the Role of the Solo Trombone in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries.: A Lecture Recital, Together with Three Recitals of Selected Works of Frescobaldi, White, Druckman, Jones, Baecher, Ott and Others. Doctor of Musical Arts, May, 1974, 43 pp., 18 illustrations, b bliography, 67 titles. The evolution of the role of the trombone as a solo instrument in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries can be traced most effectively through four schools of playing, with the music of today's avant-garde being a logical historical culmination of these four schools. It will be demons t rated that the avant-garde's use of the solo trombone has merely continued the evolutionary process started in the early nineteenth century. The contribution of the early nineteenth-century virtuosi was the establishment of the idea that the trombone could compete on its own terms with other instruments as a solo instrument. In addition to expanding the technical capabilities, they also left a basic solo repertoir. With the death of the virtuosi the trombone as a solo instrument went into a decline. For the remainder of the nineteenth century and well into the twentieth century the Paris Conservatoire was influential. Standards of solo performance were )rou ht to new heights by exclecnt study material and contest solos. -
How to Purchase Concert Percussion Accessories Cymbals
How To Purchase Concert Percussion Accessories by Neil W. Grover A more accurate title for this piece should be, “Concert Percussion Accessories; What To Purchase?” Buying is the easy part, deciding what to purchase is the task at hand. Acquiring a viable array of instruments for a student percussionist is an important, yet often neglected, part of a music educator’s core responsibilities. All too often, I encounter band rooms where quality percussion accessories are lacking, and unacceptable substitutes are used. For some reason, percussion accessories seem to be relegated to bottom of a music educator’s line item budget. Excuses like “my percussionists just don’t take care of the accessories” or “we already have a (rock) tambourine” breed an atmosphere whereby students are forced to play on inadequate instruments which would make even a pro like me sound unmusical! Playing musically is difficult enough with a good quality triangle, no less a cheap piece of junk! It’s important to realize that quality should not come at the expense of quantity. While being sensitive to budget restrictions is more important than ever, it is possible for the average music department to identify, and (over time), purchase an array of quality percussion accessories, which when cared for, provide many years of trouble free service. Percussion accessories run the gamut from whip to flexatone: triangle to log drum. For the purpose of this article, I will concentrate on those instruments which are most critical and basic to the educational percussion program. Cymbals Cymbals are instruments of great artistic expression. Just listen to a recording of Tchaikovsky’s “Romeo & Juliet Overture”, or Debussy’s tone poem “La Mer.” Ah, those glorious overtones, which can only be produced by a good set of cymbals. -

Vocal Philologies: Written on Skin and the Troubadours
Vocal Philologies: Written on Skin and the Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/oq/article/33/3-4/207/4801221 by University of California, Irvine user on 14 September 2020 Troubadours emma dillon king’s college london Parchment or slate were precious materials to the medieval scholar—or com- poser—and they were used repeatedly for successive sketching. Today, many cen- turies later, surviving manuscripts appear chaotic, with a surface complexity almost resembling organic growth, although their straight lines reveal they are man-made. In deciphering these mysterious objects one can unravel the sequence of layers and trace back to the initial text. —George Benjamin, program note to Palimpsests for Orchestra (1998À2002)1 Protector: What is it that you are looking at? Boy: Nothing, says the Boy, thumbing the knife. Protector: Thinking about? Boy: I’m thinking that when this wood and this light are cut through by eight lanes of poured concrete, I’m thinking that the two of us and everyone we love will have been dead for a thousand years. Protector: The future’s easy: tell me about now. —George Benjamin, Written on Skin, text for music by Martin Crimp (Part II, scene 9)2 Parchment is an unexpected vocal source to bring to a special issue on the voice in contemporary opera studies. In a field such as medieval studies, my more familiar scholarly habitat, parchment is the common currency of the voice: the ultimate proxy for vocal acts that are long since gone. Voice in the context of parchment is synonymous with the philological activity required to decipher information about song-acts as they were transmitted, reworked, and sometimes corrupted in the me- dium of ink, notation, and skin. -
