  • Jeannette Baum AUGUST STANGE and STANGE
    Jeannette Baum AUGUST STANGE AND STANGE MANOR JB: As I recall, Mr. And Mrs. Stange came to La Grande with their two daughters. They lived in a house now occupied by the Chinese restaurant on Fourth Street while they were building their lovely manor on the hill. That was about 1910. I: I believe the Mt. Emily Lumber Company was started by August Stange. JB: That is correct. He bought Bowman Hicks Lumber and renamed it Mt. Emily Lumber. I: Do you know why they came to La Grande specifically? JB: I suppose for lumber. I: Perhaps he learned of the sale of Bowman Hicks through a national advertisement? JB: That could be. The same thing happened with Mr. Hoffman. He was in Tennessee, and came west to take advantage of the timber. He bought a lumberyard in Union. These people came west to take advantage of a more lucrative situation. I: Did you ever hear of a brother who may have been here before August arrived? JB: I was never aware of a brother. I: When did you first meet or learn about the Stanges? JB: We came to La Grande after the war. You didn’t come into La Grande and not know about the Stanges because their house, itself, attracted attention. David, my husband, admired the house so extensively I think that, in the back of his mind, he thought he would own that house. The first time I saw the house inside is when we went to look at it in early 1962, when it went on the market.

  • MTO 20.1: Willey, Editing and Arrangement
    Volume 20, Number 1, March 2014 Copyright © 2014 Society for Music Theory The Editing and Arrangement of Conlon Nancarrow’s Studies for Disklavier and Synthesizers Robert Willey NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: http://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.14.20.1/mto.14.20.1.willey.php KEYWORDS: Conlon Nancarrow, MIDI, synthesis, Disklavier ABSTRACT: Over the last three decades a number of approaches have been used to hear Conlon Nancarrow’s Studies for Player Piano in new settings. The musical information necessary to do this can be obtained from his published scores, the punching scores that reveal the planning behind the compositions, copies of the rolls, or the punched rolls themselves. The most direct method of extending the Studies is to convert them to digital format, because of the similarities between the way notes are represented on a player piano roll and in MIDI. The process of editing and arranging Nancarrow’s Studies in the MIDI environment is explained, including how piano roll dynamics are converted into MIDI velocities, and other decisions that must be made in order to perform them in a particular environment: the Yamaha Disklavier with its accompanying GM sound module. While Nancarrow approved of multi-timbral synthesis, separating the voices of his Studies and assigning them unique timbres changes the listener’s experience of the “resultant,” Tenney’s term for the fusion of multiple voices into a single polyphonic texture. Received January 2014 1. Introduction [1.1] Conlon Nancarrow’s compositional output from 1948 until his death in 1997 was primarily for the two player pianos in his studio in Mexico City.

  • Scms 2017 Conference Program
    SCMS 2017 CONFERENCE PROGRAM FAIRMONT CHICAGO MILLENNIUM PARK March 22–26, 2017 Letter from the President Dear Friends and Colleagues, On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Host and Program Committees, and the Home Office staff, let me welcome everyone to SCMS 2017 in Chicago! Because of its Midwestern location and huge hub airport, not to say its wealth of great restaurants, nightlife, museums, shopping, and architecture, Chicago is always an exciting setting for an SCMS conference. This year at the Fairmont Chicago hotel we are in the heart of the city, close to the Loop, the river, and the Magnificent Mile. You can see the nearby Millennium Park from our hotel and the Art Institute on Michigan Avenue is but a short walk away. Included with the inexpensive hotel rate, moreover, are several amenities that I hope you will enjoy. I know from previewing the program that, as always, it boasts an impressive display of the best, most stimulating work presently being done in our field, which is at once singular in its focus on visual and digital media and yet quite diverse in its scope, intellectual interests and goals, and methodologies. This year we introduced our new policy limiting members to a single role, and I am happy to say that we achieved our goal of having fewer panels overall with no apparent loss of quality in the program or member participation. With this conference we have made presentation abstracts available online on a voluntary basis, and I urge you to let them help you navigate your way through the program.
