Tunbridge Wells Borough Landscape Character Assessment 104 Character Area 10: Kilndown Wooded Farmland Key Characteristics 1) An intricate topography with a rolling sandstone plateau that forms a series of high ridges which are regularly incised by the thin narrow tributary valleys of the River Teise. The basic underlying geological structure of the Local Character Area is of Tunbridge Wells Sandstone forming high ridges, with Wadhurst Clay and localised thin belts of alluvium deposits in the valleys. A higher proportion of Wadhurst Clay and Ashdown Beds occur to the north and north-east of the area within the network of tributary valleys of the Teise. The three tributaries of the River Teise, the largest of which is the River Bewl, flow in a general south to north direction through the area and have a great influence on its character.

  • Geology of Goudhurst
    Goudhurst Neighbourhood Plan , Environmental Character Assessment of Goudhurst Geology, Water, Flora and Fauna commentary 1. This short note sets out the geological, hydrogeological, flora and fauna background to the village which make the Goudhurst parish setting unique in the Weald region 2. As noted in previous documents, the quality of the landscape around Goudhurst is very high with national importance. The unique and varied landscape is a result of the underlying geology giving rise to a variety of soils, topography, natural vegetation and therefore historic land use. It supports a wide range of natural habitats resulting from this richly varied and diverse collection of flora and fauna. As further indication of this, it is worthwhile highlighting that these unique features allowed the village to develop, and maintain, its own groundwater abstraction pumping station which now serves other villages. It is one of the only villages in the Weald with such a site and forms a vital part of the water supply for the region providing up to 10 Million litres per day. Geology 3. The topography of Goudhurst has been sculptured by the unusual underlying geology and geological processes of the district. The geology of the village and surrounds is reproduced below. The geology underlying the village appears as layers in a cake: The hard Tunbridge Wells Sandstone (TWS) outcrop forms the top layer (coloured yellow). Below this is the impervious Wadhurst Clay (brown colour) and the lowest layer are the Ashdown sandstone formation (blue colour). Naturally, the hard TWS forms the ridge on which the church and village heights are sited.

The Clavichord in the Bluegrass: Dolmetsch, Fudge, and Hammer Joseph R. Jones For the gentlemen members of the Cricket Club, for whom this was originally written. The blacksmith's dog can sleep under the anvil, according to a Spanish proverb that means, roughly, "You can get used to anything." And we twenty-first century Americans, like the blacksmith's dog, are so used to a relentless bombardment of noise that we accept roaring jet airplanes, construction dynamiting, and passing cars that literally throb with the vibration of tl1eir stereos as natural manifestations, like the twittering of birds. In pre-Industrial times, such mechanical noises were rare, however, and silence was normal. Human eardrums were sensitive and not yet damaged by blasting stereos, headphones, and rock concerts that require earplugs to protect the aural nerves of performers.

  • Bach 704-5 - J
    BACH 704-5 - J. S. BACH: The Six Harpsichord Partitas Vols. 1-2 While Bach became active during the 1730s and 1740s as an agent both for publishers and instrument-makers, his own published works were few, financed mainly by himself, and were produced largely for academic reasons; as guides to scholars, summarizing his own Baroque art. Thus the title page of these Six Partitas, published by Bach himself in 1731, reads: Keyboa rd Practice, consisting of preludes, allemandes, courantes, sarabandes, gigues, minuets, and other galanteries, composed for music- lovers, to refresh their spirits, by Johann Sebastian Bach, Actual Capellmeister to the Court of Saxe-Weissenfels and Directore Chori Musici Lipsiensis. Opus 1. Published by the Author. 1731. The Suite of Dances for instrumental ensembles or a solo instrument such as lute or harpsichord, was an important and popular musical form of the Baroque era; the separate movements were of contrasting speeds, metrical patterns and textures, but bound together into a coherent group by generally sharing the same key and thematic material. The form grew out of the customary “paring” of dances (e.g. Pavane and Galliard) – a duple time dance of moderate or slow tempo being followed by a faster one in triple time, the second often being a rhythmically-varied version of the first. The most significant of these couples was the Allemande and Courante, which became the main pair of movements of the Suite. A central figure in the history of the Suite was the Austrian composer Froberger (1616-1667), a pupil of Frescobaldi and tireless traveler; in his music he drew together many of the separate national styles of his time and his great talent fused these disparate elements into a coherent and powerful style that was to have a formative influence on German music.
