  • Leonard Slatkin at 70: the DSO's Music Director Was Born for The
    Leonard Slatkin at 70: The DSO’s music director was born for the podium By Lawrence B. Johnson Some bright young musicians know early on that they want to be a conductor. Leonard Slatkin, who turned 70 Slatkin at 70: on September 1, had a more specific vision. He believed himself born to be a music director. Greatest Hits “First off, it was pretty clear that I would go into conducting once I had the opportunity to actually lead an orchestra,” says Slatkin, music director of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra since 2008 and occupant of the same post with the Orchestre National de Lyon since 2011. “The study process suited my own ethic and, at least for me, I felt relatively comfortable with the technical part of the job.” “But perhaps more important, I knew that I would also be a music director. Mind you, this is a very different job from just getting on the podium and waving your arms. The decision making process and the ability to shape a single ensemble into a cohesive whole, including administration, somehow felt natural to me.” Slatkin arrived at the DSO with two directorships already under his belt – the Saint Louis Symphony (1979-96) and the National Symphony in Washington, D.C. (1996-2008) – and an earful of caution about the economically distressed city and the hard-pressed orchestra to which he was being lured. But it was a challenge that excited him. “Almost everyone warned me about the impending demise of the orchestra,” the conductor says. “A lot of people said that I should not take it.

  • To the Parliamentary Subcommittee on Law Enforcement
    TO THE PARLIAMENTARY SUBCOMMITTEE ON LAW ENFORCEMENT INQUIRY INTO TRADE IN ELEPHANT IVORY AND RHINO HORN SUBMISSION FROM THE CELTIC PIPING CLUB (INC.) June 2017 http://www.celticpipingclub.com INTRODUCTION The Celtic Piping Club (Inc.) is a network for devotees of various bagpipes including the Irish uilleann pipes, Scottish smallpipes, Northumbrian pipes, Border pipes, musette de cour, pastoral pipes, and the Galician gaita; to name some of the more than 200 different types of mouth-blown and bellows-blown bagpipes. The Highland pipes are not a priority for the club as there are many other resources and opportunities available for players of that instrument. With regard to the aforementioned pipes, some have traditionally had ivory mounts and ferrules, particularly the uilleann pipes, Northumbrian pipes, and musette de cour. We, therefore, take this opportunity to express our concerns should an outright ban on domestic trade of objects containing ivory come into place. We support a total ban on trade in rhinoceros horn. Our submission reflects those from musical instrument dealers, antiques traders, etc., e.g., Submissions 26 and 32. Despite our concerns set out below, we strongly support all functional and effective efforts to eliminate the slaughter of elephants and rhinoceros and threats to their species. BACKGROUND From the end of the 16th century, some forms of bagpipes became musical instruments favoured by royal courts and the aristocracy, especially in France. They evolved into elaborate and sophisticated instruments and ivory was employed in their manufacture. By the end of the 18th century, the uilleann and Northumbrian pipes were fashionable among the gentry of Britain and Ireland.

Molte proposte legate all’anniversario hanno evidenziato un’estrema attenzione ad individuare la presenza del musicista in repertori svariati, magari estranei alla sua diretta produzione, geograficamente disseminati in tutto il mondo e cronologicamente a lui non sempre prossimi. È risultato da tali operazioni un arricchimento della nostra conoscenza, già assai vasta e ramificata, non tanto dell’autore in sé, quanto della sua incidenza e della sua estrema popolarità, da quand’egli era in vita sino ai giorni nostri. Questo cd rientra in questo tipo d’operazione e offre all’ascoltatore l’opportunità, sino ad oggi piuttosto rara, d’incontrare la musica di Verdi attraverso il filtro della rielaborazione cameristica e tutta strumentale per flauto e pianoforte.
