Shirk, Assistant Managers [t] HOW TO PROTECT YOUR ESTATE During Your Lifetime — And Afterwards —Through The Living Trust Today, in the face of tax complexities . revolutionary industrial changes ... a confused world situation and an uncertain national picture — successful investing of capital and successful estate management require more time and specialized knowledge than most people possess. // you would like to devote more time to your business, have more freedom for travel and leisure . and at the same time wish to provide for yourself or your family, now or later ... we believe you have much to gain by investigating the Living Trust. The Living Trust is a Trust which you establish to go into effect during your lifetime, as part of your overall estate plan, and for the purpose of receiving professional management for a specified por- tion of your property. It can be arranged for the benefit of yourself, members of your family, or other individuals or charities — and can be large or small. We will be glad to meet with you and your attorney to discuss a Living Trust as it fits in with your situation. For an appointment, at your convenience, please write or call the Personal Trust Department of the National Shawmut Bank, Boston, Massachusetts. No obligation, of course. Send for the Shawmut Bank's informative new booklet, "The Living Trust". It tells the whole story. Yours without charge.

  • Ronald Roseman: a Biographical Description and Study of His Teaching Methodology
    LAMPIDIS, ANNA, D.M.A. Ronald Roseman: A Biographical Description and Study of his Teaching Methodology. (2008) Directed by Dr. Mary Ashley Barret. 103 pp. Ronald Roseman was an internationally acclaimed oboe soloist, chamber musician, teacher, recording artist, and composer whose career spanned over 40 years. A renowned oboist, he performed in some of America’s most influential institutions and ensembles including the New York Woodwind Quintet, the New York Philharmonic, and the New York Bach Aria Group. His contributions to 20th Century oboe pedagogy through his own unique teaching methodology enabled him to contribute to the success of both his own personal students and many others in the field of oboe and woodwind performance. His body of compositions that include oboe as well as other instruments and voice serve to encapsulate his career as a noteworthy 20th Century composer. Roseman’s musicianship and unique teaching style continues to be admired and respected worldwide by oboists and musicians. The purpose of this study is to present a biographical overview and pedagogical techniques of oboist Ronald Roseman. This study will be divided into sections about his early life, teaching career, performance career and his pedagogical influence upon his students. Exercises and techniques developed by Roseman for the enhancement of oboe pedagogy will also be included. Interviews have been conducted with his wife and three former well-known students in order to better serve the focus of this study. The author also contributed pedagogical techniques compiled during a two-year period of study with Roseman. Appendices include a discography of recorded materials, the New York Woodwind Quintet works list, Roseman’s published article on Baroque Ornamentation, a list of his compositions with premiere dates and performers, and interview questions.

Ostoich ABSTRACT At one time or another, every collegiate oboe student has toted the thick, yellow Barret Oboe Method, the bible of oboe study, to his or her lesson. Surveys of teachers in the United States reveal that this is the most commonly used etude book, even though it was first published in 1850 for an oboe with key work different than our modern one. Barret’s Oboe Method is part of a tradition of pedagogical materials that have been generated by oboe professors and students at the Paris Conservatory. When oboists travelled from Europe to fill positions in U.S. Orchestras in the early twentieth-century, this etude tradition was transplanted but did not grow, even though it continued in France. Because teachers in the United States lost touch with twentieth-century French etude output, these valuable studies never became a part of mainstream American pedagogy.

  • Serge Koussevitzky: a Complete Discography, Part I
    SERGE KOUSSEVITZKY: A COMPLETE DISCOGRAPHY, PART I Edward D. Young INTRODUCTION1 As one thinks about the contents of this discography, it seems that Serge Koussev­ itzky was fortunate to make so many fine recordings. Recording in Koussevitzky's time was not undertaken as frequently as it is today because it was difficult and expensive. Electrical process audio recording (developed by the Western Electric Division of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company) that could begin to capture the sound of a symphony orchestra was not made available to the record industry until 1924, the same year that Koussevitzky began his epic tenure as Music Director (1924-1949) of the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO). Koussevitzky died in 1951, at the dawn of the age of modern high fidelity recording on magnetic tape, and only a handful of his last Victor recordings with the Boston Symphony Orchestra were captured in this medium. The Great Depression of the 1930s slowed down all recording and broadcasting activity. Troubles with the musicians' union kept the Boston Symphony from broad­ casting and from making commercial records for over five years. Radio sponsors were lacking for the BSO's concerts over the air. Koussevitzky and the Symphony management turned down repeated offers from Columbia Records and the CBS Radio Network that probably would have enabled a discographer to fill many more pages than are printed here. Instead, the BSO contjnued to renew an exclusive contract with RCA Victor-National Broadcasting Company which already was over­ crowded with artists seeking to record and broadcast, with the result that no one received the attention they deserved.
