His works fascinate through their originality, their seemingly endless richness of invention, their daring harmonics and their visionary use of the most remote tonalities. Today Scarlatti has once again established a firm place in the pianistic repertory. But the question preoccupying me was the influence his music had on the composers of the Romantic era. If we cast an eye over the countless recordings of transcriptions and arrangements of his contemporary Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750), it becomes even clearer that in Scarlatti’s case, we find hardly anything comparable. A fascinating process of investigation eventually led me to Carl Tausig (1841–1871), Ignaz Friedman (1882–1948) and Walter Gieseking (1895–1956).

  • Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881
    Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881 My Lord. I have the honor of addressing your Lordship, on the subject of American politics, as it may respect the reciprocal interest of Great Britain, and the little rising State of Vermont. Your Lordship is undoubtedly sensible of the Jealousy of the United States over Vermont, since it is not and will not be confederated with them. They proceed so far as to threaten its subjugation, as soon as they have established their new proposed constitution and made their government sufficiently energetic. Their arguements for so doing, (in 1 Printed: Duffy, Allen, I, 273–75. The severely damaged manuscript is in the Henry Stevens Collection in the Vermont State Archives. Allen (1738– 1789), a revolutionary and military leader, was a native of Connecticut. In 1770 he moved with his brothers to the New Hampshire Grants in the Green Mountains, where he formed the Green Mountain Boys to challenge New York’s jurisdiction over the territory. In 1775 he led the Green Mountain Boys in capturing Fort Ticonderoga. The Second Continental Congress gave him command of the Green Mountain Regiment in the Continental Army, but political enemies took the command from him. During the invasion of Canada in 1775, Allen was taken prisoner by the British and endured considerable hardships in prison. In 1778 the British released him, largely through the efforts of his family. From 1778 to 1784 he was commander-in-chief of Vermont’s military forces and political advisor to Governor Thomas Chittenden. From 1778 to 1781 he tried to convince Congress to grant statehood to Vermont; failing in that he sought annexation to the British Empire.

    ssahtrch07c06.fm Page 75 Friday, January 13, 2006 2:40 PM Name ___________________________ Date___________________ Class _____________ Creating the Constitution Primary Source Chapter and Section Chapter and James Bowdoin’s Account of Shays’ Rebellion James Bowdoin was governor of Massachusetts during Shays’ Rebellion. In this document, he recounted the event and its significance. Support Directions: Read the excerpt and answer the questions that follow. The rebels, under Daniel Shays, Luke Day, and Eli Parsons, soon gathered a force in that vicinity [of Springfield], of 2000 men, and on the 25th of January advanced in a menacing manner towards the arsenal [warehouse]. Gen. Shepard sent an aid-de- camp [officer] to inquire the design of the movement, and to warn Shays of his danger. The answer was, that they would have possession of the barracks [warehouse]; and they immediately marched to within 250 yards of the arsenal. They were again warned that if they approached nearer, they would be fired on; still they advanced. He then ordered the artillery to be pointed at the centre of their column [group]. The cry of murder then arose from the rear of the insurgents, and the whole were struck with panic and confusion. Shays lost all control over them, and they fled . 10 miles, leaving 3 dead and 1 wounded. Good frequently springs from evil. Shays’s Rebellion served to impress on the public mind a belief of the necessity of a new form of National Government. It may be doubted, whether the present United States Constitution would have been adopted, if that rebellion had not predisposed the minds of the people in favor of an energetic [powerful] government.

  • Where Is Northampton, Massachusetts?
    WHERE IS NORTHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS? Northampton is bordered by Easthampton on the south, Westhampton on the west, Williamsburg and Hatfield on the north and is separated by the Connecticut river from Hadley on the east. Northampton is 43 miles east of Pittsfield; 93 miles west of Boston; and 151 miles north from New York city. Northampton is a lively, diverse community located in the heart of the Five College Area of the Pionner Valley. Home to Smith College, Northampton also serves as the county seat of Hampshire County. It is located at the intersection of Route 91 (north-south New England corridor) and Route 9 (east-west highway) which links Amherst and the University of Massachusetts with the hilltowns of the west. The downtown of Northampton is alive days and evenings with a wide selection of restaurants, coffee and ice-cream shops, theatres including the only municipally owned theatre in the state, clubs featuring an array of music, street musicians and a Center for the Arts. HISTORIES OF THE TOWNS OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS Heritage Surveys, Inc. is building a compilation of historical pictures and sketches of the towns of Western Massachusetts from its archives of ephemera and books. This is a work in progress. Northampton Main Street – 1879 Witches, Shays Rebellion and Other Early History Northampton in its early days was a strict New England community. By 1656, witch hysteria had reached this western outpost. One woman, Mary Parsons, was tried twice but acquitted both times. Famed minister Jonathan Edwards, whose stern writings inspired a religious fervor called the "Great Awakening", lived in Northampton for 23 years.

  • Shays' Rebellion
    American Studies Mr. Carlson Shays' Rebellion The American Revolution ended in 1783, but the young nation it created faced a difficult time. Nowhere was this more evident than to the people of Western Massachusetts where a severe economic depression made life difficult for farmers living in this part of New England. The depression forced people who were unable to pay their debts into court where many judges ruled they must come up with the money to pay their debts or be thrown into jail. The farmers blamed their troubles on the wealthy, mercantile (business class) elite of Eastern Massachusetts, especially Boston, who demanded hard currency to pay foreign creditors. The farmers of Western Massachusetts, after years of frustration, reacted with an armed uprising that lasted for six months at the end of 1786 and start of 1787. The Rebellion started with petitions to the government for paper currency, lower taxes, and judicial reform. When this failed, the farmers took more drastic measures. The first target of the Rebellion was the Court of Common Pleas at Northampton, Massachusetts. At this courthouse, in late August of 1786, an armed group of farmers kept from the judge from taking his position behind bench. Similar groups of rebels stormed the courts at Worcester, Concord, Taunton, and Great Barrington in the following weeks. They hoped to prevent further trials and imprisonment of people who could not repay their debts. The man who rose to lead these bands of rebels was Captain Daniel Shays, a veteran of the Revolutionary War and a farmer from Pelham, Massachusetts.
