  • Dzovig Markarian
    It is curious to notice that most of Mr. Dellalian’s writings for piano use aleatoric notation, next to extended techniques, to present an idea which is intended to be repeated a number of times before transitioning to the next. The 2005 compilation called “Sounds of Devotion,” where the composer’s family generously present articles, photos and other significant testimony on the composer’s creative life, remembers the two major influences in his music to be modernism and the Armenian Genocide. GUEST ARTIST SERIES ABOUT DZOVIG MARKARIAN Dzovig Markarian is a contemporary classical pianist, whose performances have been described in the press as “brilliant” (M. Swed, LA Times), and “deeply moving, technically accomplished, spiritually uplifting” (B. Adams, Dilijan Blog). An active soloist as well as a collaborative artist, Dzovig is a frequent guest with various ensembles and organizations such as the Dilijan Chamber Music Series, Jacaranda Music at the Edge, International Clarinet Conference, Festival of Microtonal Music, CalArts Chamber Orchestra, inauthentica ensemble, ensemble Green, Xtet New Music Group, USC Contemporary Music Ensemble, REDCAT Festivals of Contemporary Music, as well as with members of the LA PHIL, LACO, DZOVIG MARKARIAN Southwest Chamber Music, and others. Most recently, Dzovig has worked with and premiered works by various composers such as Sofia Gubaidulina, Chinary Ung, Iannis Xenakis, James Gardner, Victoria Bond, Tigran Mansurian, Artur Avanesov, Jeffrey Holmes, Alan Shockley, Adrian Pertout, Laura Kramer and Juan Pablo Contreras. PIANO Ms. Markarian is the founding pianist of Trio Terroir, a Los Angeles based contemporary piano trio devoted to new and complex music from around the world.

  • Folk Music 1 Folk Music
    Folk music 1 Folk music Folk music Béla Bartók recording Slovak peasant singers in 1908 Traditions List of folk music traditions Musicians List of folk musicians Instruments Folk instruments Folk music is an English term encompassing both traditional folk music and contemporary folk music. The term originated in the 19th century. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted by mouth, as music of the lower classes, and as music with unknown composers. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. This music is also referred to as traditional music and, in US, as "roots music". Starting in the mid-20th century a new form of popular folk music evolved from traditional folk music. This process and period is called the (second) folk revival and reached a zenith in the 1960s. The most common name for this new form of music is also "folk music", but is often called "contemporary folk music" or "folk revival music" to make the distinction.[1] This type of folk music also includes fusion genres such as folk rock, electric folk, and others. While contemporary folk music is a genre generally distinct from traditional folk music, it often shares the same English name, performers and venues as traditional folk music; even individual songs may be a blend of the two. Traditional folk music Definitions A consistent definition of traditional folk music is elusive. The terms folk music, folk song, and folk dance are comparatively recent expressions. They are extensions of the term folk lore, which was coined

  • Official Middle Kingdom Songbook" Is a Publication Ol the Middle Kingdom of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc
    Unto the Populace of the Known World come greetings from Siobhan Medhbh O'Roarke, Chronicler of the Middle in the first reign of their Majesties Eliahu and Elen. The book you now hold in your hands is, I must confess, a mystery to me. It was handed to me, wrapped in a plain brown wrapper, by a mysterious figure in purple. Opening said package, I discovered a manuscript, much travel- and tear-stained. The dedicatory page purported to have left the hands of Countess Valmai many years before, but when I contacted that noble lady, she denied any knowledge of it and vehemently refused to accept any e!a!Tle credit for such a manuscript.* Despite the mysterious origins of the book, it seemed to me to be of value. Not many days before, the Neos in my home barony had been complaining that "No-one ever sings the old songs any more. How can we learn them?" Thus, the discovery of the mysterious parcel seemed Provident, if not serendipitious. It was a book Whose Time Had Come. I set about getting it published. Master Reginald of the Horns, seeing my bewilderment, surrounded by pages of music tossed about in a random manner, graciously offered to rewrite the musical scores in a consistent and pleasing manner. I owe a great debt to him for this labor, for I am confident that the Book would not have appeared in print until Pennsic XX or even later had the task of transcribing the music been left to me. Thanks are also due to Mistress Greya Ankayrlyn, who took pity on the poor naked manuscript and created a cover for it.

This collection consists of more than 1,300 commercially-produced phonograph recordings (LPs, 78s, 45s) primarily from Eastern Europe. Many of these albums are no longer in print, or, are difficult to purchase.

  • The Sound of Ethnic America: Prewar “Foreign-Language” Recordings & the Sonics of Us Citizenship
    THE SOUND OF ETHNIC AMERICA: PREWAR “FOREIGN-LANGUAGE” RECORDINGS & THE SONICS OF US CITIZENSHIP Mathew R. Swiatlowski A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of American Studies in the College of Arts & Sciences Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Jocelyn R. Neal Sharon P. Holland Timothy Marr Michael Palm Andrea Bohlmam © 2018 Mathew R. Swiatlowski ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Mathew R. Swiatlowski: The Sound of Ethnic America: Prewar “Foreign-Language” Records and the Sonics of US Citizenship (Under the direction of Jocelyn R. Neal) This dissertation explores the juncture of sound and citizenship to consider how the boundaries of nation are maintained at both geospatial and cultural borders. Specifically, the project concerns “foreign-language” recordings made by US recording companies prior to World War II (hereafter, prewar). With the onset of war in Europe in 1914, “foreign-language” recordings were increasingly cut domestically, featuring vernacular performers of the Great Wave of immigration that brought Hungarian, Syrian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Polish, Mexican, Chinese, and Japanese peoples, alongside a host of other nationalities, to the US beginning in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Initially marketed to specific immigrant populations in the US, these recordings eventually became the province of postwar record collectors and the reissue music market by the 1970s. The narrative of the project draws much of its power by connecting their discrete moments of circulation with the political realities that shaped their audition. As such, the project examines the interplay between, what I call, the “national vernacular imaginary” and state policy in regards to immigration and citizenship.

Ivo Papazov. Wedding music. Cultural transmission. It is paradox of European ethnomusicology that many of the countries and musical traditions which are geographically closest to the western centres of learning have received comparatively little attention from the scholars of those centres. Information in English (particularly) on the folk music traditions of eastern Europe is surprisingly scant. There is, naturally, more material available on the musical traditions of a particular country in its indigenous language, but such work often remains untranslated.
