It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This monograph examines the post-exile, multi-version works of Sergei Rachmaninoff with a view to unravelling the sophisticated web of meanings and values attached to them. Compositional revision is an important and complex aspect of creating musical meaning. Considering revision offers an important perspective on the construction and circulation of meanings and discourses attending Rachmaninoff’s music. While Rachmaninoff achieved international recognition during the 1890s as a distinctively Russian musician, I argue that Rachmaninoff’s return to certain compositions through revision played a crucial role in the creation of a narrative and set of tropes representing “Russian diaspora” following the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution.

  • Rachmaninoff's Early Piano Works and the Traces of Chopin's Influence
    Rachmaninoff’s Early Piano works and the Traces of Chopin’s Influence: The Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op.3 & The Moments Musicaux, Op.16 A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Division of Keyboard Studies of the College-Conservatory of Music by Sanghie Lee P.D., Indiana University, 2011 B.M., M.M., Yonsei University, Korea, 2007 Committee Chair: Jonathan Kregor, Ph.D. Abstract This document examines two of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s early piano works, Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op.3 (1892) and Moments Musicaux, Opus 16 (1896), as they relate to the piano works of Frédéric Chopin. The five short pieces that comprise Morceaux de Fantaisie and the six Moments Musicaux are reminiscent of many of Chopin’s piano works; even as the sets broadly build on his character genres such as the nocturne, barcarolle, etude, prelude, waltz, and berceuse, they also frequently are modeled on or reference specific Chopin pieces. This document identifies how Rachmaninoff’s sets specifically and generally show the influence of Chopin’s style and works, while exploring how Rachmaninoff used Chopin’s models to create and present his unique compositional identity. Through this investigation, performers can better understand Chopin’s influence on Rachmaninoff’s piano works, and therefore improve their interpretations of his music. ii Copyright © 2018 by Sanghie Lee All rights reserved iii Acknowledgements I cannot express my heartfelt gratitude enough to my dear teacher James Tocco, who gave me devoted guidance and inspirational teaching for years.

Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • Rachmaninoff, Isle of the Dead, Op. 29
    Sergei RACHMANINOFF rg Isle of the Dead, Op. 29 Sergei Vasilyevich Rachmaninoff (1 April 1873 – 28 March 1943) was a Russian composer, virtuoso pianist, and conductor. Born into a musical aristocratic family, Rachmaninoff enrolled in piano lessons at age 4, and began studying at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory at age 10. A somewhat failing domestic life, however, distracted Rachmaninoff from his early studies, as two of his sisters would die from disease before the age of 18, and his father – who lost 4 of the 5 family estates through his financial incompetence and gambling habits – left the family to live in Moscow. Upon his struggles, his cousin, Alexander Siloti – an accomplished pianist studying under Franz Liszt – suggested for Rachmaninoff to study at the Moscow Conservatory under his strict former teacher, Nikolai Zverev. Rachmaninoff would go on to study under Siloti himself, and graduated from the conservatory a year early, requesting to do his final exams prematurely to avoid studying under a new teacher after hearing that Siloti was leaving Moscow. After launching his compositional career, Rachmaninoff fell into a depression after learning of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s death, who had agreed to conduct his tone poem, The Rock (1893). Through his struggles, Rachmaninoff cancelled a Russian tour, pawned a gold watch given to him by Zverev, and debuted his Symphony No. 1 (1895) which was widely criticized – in large part due to conductor Alexander Glazunov’s misuse of rehearsal time and possible drunkenness during the performance. Following a 3-year writer’s block, Rachmaninoff would get counselling from Nikolai Dahl and compose his Piano Concerto No.

  • 1937 the Andrews Sisters
    Hans Olav Løkken Stjørdal www.historiefortelleren.no 1937 The Andrews Sisters Hun hadde gått noen meter bak de andre og tenkt på broren Ola. Han hadde overtatt Lekåa, var sersjant, skogvokter og nå "bankdirektør". Det siste forstod hun ikke helt hva var for noe. Hun tenkte på far Per, og mor Kari da, som nettopp var død, "uff nei". Og på brevene fra søsknene, Kristen og Ingeborg i Amerika. Brevene som hadde overbevist henne om å utvandre til Amerika. Det skjedde så mye på kort tid. Soffi følte det var ei tung bør å bære. En vanskelig avgjørelse. De hadde flyttet litt att og fram i byen, etter å ha giftet seg i voksen alder. Nå hadde de satt seg ned i Hårstadlia ved Bell, snudd seg en siste gang til dette øyeblikket som ville gi slik smerte. De to eldste sønnene skjønte nok hva som rørte mor og far så sterkt. En skulle tro at de andre ungene også skjønte at dette skulle bli det siste glimtet av omgivelsene deres mor hadde hatt som tumleplass. Nå satt de der alle sammen på bakken, stirret mest tilbake i tomhet, vel vitende om at dette ville bli det siste de så av "heimplassen". Aldri mer skulle de få se "heimen te'o mor" og Selbu igjen. Sterke minner. Sterke følelser. Mor Soffi tørker en tåre. Den snart toårige gamle Olga klatrer opp i hennes fang, krever litt oppmerksomhet - alt var likevel så stille, så forunderlig stille. Olga bryter brått stillheten ved et barns utålmodige lyder - en tone vandrer avsted, fremover - et forvarsel om noe som skulle komme.
