Winnebago County Community Park EAB Restoration The Emerald Ash Borer was discovered in Winnebago County in 2013. With this discovery, all species of ash within the county were threatened. The Winnebago County Community Park has more than 500 ash trees. In an attempt to preserve the tree canopy within the park for future generations, new trees will need to be planted as the infected ash trees will certainly die over time. A future plaque with donors names will be installed within the Community Park. Sesquicentennial Tree Grove at J.P. Coughlin Center One hundred fifty years ago, the Oak Savannah Plant Community dominated the Winnebago County landscape. Eventually, these large tracts diminished to a point where now few remain. In an effort to restore a piece of Wiscon- sin’s heritage the Winnebago County Sesquicentennial Committee created this grove. The names of individuals for whom each tree is planted will appear on plaques permanently located inside the J.P. Coughlin Center. A Lasting Memory If you are interested in the Memorial Tree and Bench Program, please complete theOSH application-O-NEE/ inGRUNDMAN our information packet. Once we receive your application, we will contact you for more information. Picture Yourself in Winnebago County Parks & Sunnyview Expo Center!

CHAPTER FIFTEEN Guadalupe San Miguel, Jr. Musica Tejana: More Than Conjuntos and Orquestas INTRODUCTION Manuel Pena has argued that musica tejana is comprised of two major musical ensembles and their styles, the conjunto and the orquesta.1 These are not the only ones in the community. Others have formed and become dominant at different historical periods in the 20th century. The only ensemble that has survived during this century, however, has been the conjunto. CONJUNTO: TRADITIONAL AND PROGRESSIVE The conjunto originated on both sides of the border and began as a two-person outfit in the 1920s, one played the accordion and the other played a string instrument. Its repertoire, initially, was quite broad and included a host of traditional dances and songs popular throughout 215 Mexico. The conjunto expanded to four persons and four instruments in the post-WWII period.

  • PERFORMER ROLE CODES Role Code
    PERFORMER ROLE CODES To help calculate the share of revenues that individual performers should receive from use of a sound recording, a performer is assigned a contributor category and role code. Role codes are split into a number of types – not all of which are eligible for payment. Each type is further sorted into different instrumental, vocal or studio personnel performances, so that it is easy to identify what each performer contributed to a sound recording. Payable roles are generally ones which provide an audible contribution to the final sound recording. Non-payable roles are generally studio activities which add no audible contribution to the final sound recording. PAYABLE ROLES There are a number of payable roles. These are broken down into groups depending on the activity or instrument being played. See below all of the roles within each group.

GEORGE BEAUCHAMP AND THE RISE OF THE ELECTRIC GUITAR UP TO 1939 Matthew William Hill PhD The University of Edinburgh 2013 Declaration I declare that this thesis is entirely my own work. Matthew William Hill ABSTRACT This thesis examines the rise of the electric guitar in the United States – arguably the most iconic and successful musical instrument of the 20th century – and the role of George Beauchamp in its invention and development. It focuses on Beauchamp's invention of the electromagnetic pickup, which is the component that makes an electric guitar an electric guitar. The research is based on examination of surviving instruments as well as archival research. An extensive contextual background is given regarding the historical development of electrical musical instruments in general and electric and electrified stringed instruments in particular.

    ks•Ca oo bo B t t B From the: o o b o a k s C • • C s a k b o o o CB t B B t o o o Series b k a s • C THE MUSICIAN’S WORKBOOK VI Fretted Instrument Octave Designation Diagram & Charts Compiled by Tobe A.Richards FRETTED INSTRUMENT TUNING CHART The comprehesive tuning chart below features each string reading from left to right as if the in- strument was standing up vertically in front of you. Generally, the strings on the left will be lower pitched than those on the right, but there are variations including the mountain dulcimer, where the higher melody strings precede their lower pitched counterparts. The note names are listed in scientific pitch notation as used by The Acoustical Society of Amer- ica. If you need know their Helmholtz equivalents we have a free downloadable/printable ver- sion with both systems and their piano keyboard positioning in Volume VI of our Music Workbook series. You’ll find this in the ‘Freebies’ section of FFM. When discussing the configuration of an instrument’s stringing arrangement, you’ll find they are often referred to by the number of strings or by the number of courses. A course is simply a series of strings tuned to the same note (albeit often an octave apart) to be fretted by one finger at the same time. To give an example of this, the mandolin has 8 strings or 4 courses of strings. Steel strings in particular give a ringing or jangly sound when they are arranged in double, triple or quad- ruple courses.
