For Orchestra Strata For orchestra By David Lancaster Strata For Orchestra David Lancaster The music and structure of Strata was suggested by a poster (The Pyramid of the Capitalist System) which was produced by the Industrial Worker magazine in 1911; I first encountered this poster during the exhibition ‘Picturing the Social Order’ at Leeds City Art Gallery in 2008. Strata is scored: 2.2.2.2, 2.2.3.0, timpani, 2 percussion, piano, harp and strings. Wind doublings require piccolo and contrabassoon. Percussion 1: xylophone, tubular bells, 4 tom-toms, cowbell Percussion 2: vibraphone, glockenspiel, bass drum, temple blocks, 2 bongos, 2 tom- toms.

  • The Role of Bell Patterns in West African and Afro-Caribbean Music
    Braiding Rhythms: The Role of Bell Patterns in West African and Afro-Caribbean Music A Smithsonian Folkways Lesson Designed by: Jonathan Saxon* Antelope Valley College Summary: These lessons aim to demonstrate polyrhythmic elements found throughout West African and Afro-Caribbean music. Students will listen to music from Ghana, Nigeria, Cuba, and Puerto Rico to learn how this polyrhythmic tradition followed Africans to the Caribbean as a result of the transatlantic slave trade. Students will learn the rumba clave pattern, cascara pattern, and a 6/8 bell pattern. All rhythms will be accompanied by a two-step dance pattern. Suggested Grade Levels: 9–12, college/university courses Countries: Cuba, Puerto Rico, Ghana, Nigeria Regions: West Africa, the Caribbean Culture Groups: Yoruba of Nigeria, Ga of Ghana, Afro-Caribbean Genre: West African, Afro-Caribbean Instruments: Designed for classes with no access to instruments, but sticks, mambo bells, and shakers can be added Language: English Co-Curricular Areas: U.S. history, African-American history, history of Latin American and the Caribbean (also suited for non-music majors) Prerequisites: None. Objectives: Clap and sing clave rhythm Clap and sing cascara rhythm Clap and sing 6/8 bell pattern Dance two-bar phrase stepping on quarter note of each beat in 4/4 time Listen to music from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Ghana, and Nigeria Learn where Cuba, Puerto Rico, Ghana, and Nigeria are located on a map Understand that rhythmic ideas and phrases followed Africans from West Africa to the Caribbean as a result of the transatlantic slave trade * Special thanks to Dr. Marisol Berríos-Miranda and Dr.

  • Learning Neural Audio Embeddings for Grounding Semantics in Auditory Perception
    Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research 60 (2017) 1003-1030 Submitted 8/17; published 12/17 Learning Neural Audio Embeddings for Grounding Semantics in Auditory Perception Douwe Kiela [email protected] Facebook Artificial Intelligence Research 770 Broadway, New York, NY 10003, USA Stephen Clark [email protected] Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge 15 JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FD, UK Abstract Multi-modal semantics, which aims to ground semantic representations in perception, has relied on feature norms or raw image data for perceptual input. In this paper we examine grounding semantic representations in raw auditory data, using standard evaluations for multi-modal semantics. After having shown the quality of such auditorily grounded repre- sentations, we show how they can be applied to tasks where auditory perception is relevant, including two unsupervised categorization experiments, and provide further analysis. We find that features transfered from deep neural networks outperform bag of audio words approaches. To our knowledge, this is the first work to construct multi-modal models from a combination of textual information and auditory information extracted from deep neural networks, and the first work to evaluate the performance of tri-modal (textual, visual and auditory) semantic models. 1. Introduction Distributional models (Turney & Pantel, 2010; Clark, 2015) have proved useful for a variety of core artificial intelligence tasks that revolve around natural language understanding. The fact that such models represent the meaning of a word as a distribution over other words, however, implies that they suffer from the grounding problem (Harnad, 1990); i.e. they do not account for the fact that human semantic knowledge is grounded in the perceptual system (Louwerse, 2008).

  • PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS of the ORCHESTRA Cabasa
    PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS OF THE ORCHESTRA Cabasa - A rattle consisting of a small gourd covered with a loose network of strung beads. It is held by a handle and shaken with a rotating motion. Claves - A pair of hardwood cylinders, each approximately 20 cm. long. One cylinder rests against the fingernails of a loosely formed fist (cupped to act as a resonator) and is struck with the other cylinder. Cowbell - A metal bell, usually with straight sides and a slightly expanding, nearly rectangular cross section. A type without a clapper and played with a drumstick is most often used in orchestras. Castanets - Consists of two shell-shaped pieces of wood, the hollow sides of which are clapped together. They produce an indefinite pitch and are widely used in Spanish music especially to accompany dance. When used in an orchestra, they are often mounted on either side of a piece of wood that is held by the player and shaken. Sleigh bells - Small pellet bells mounted in rows on a piece of wood with a protruding handle. Tambourine - A shallow, single-headed frame drum with a wooden frame in which metal disks or jingles are set. It is most often held in one hand and struck with the other. Bongos - A permanently attached pair of small, single-headed, cylindrical or conical drums. One drum is of slightly larger diameter and is tuned about a fifth below the smaller. The pair is held between the knees and struck with the hands. Maracas - A Latin American rattle consisting of a round or oval-shaped vessel filled with seeds or similar material and held by a handle.

  • Afro-Brazilian Songs and Rhythms for General Music K-8
    Dr. Christopher H. Fashun Assistant Professor of Music, Hope College ([email protected]) Afro-Brazilian Songs and Rhythms for General Music K-8 Candomblé: The Afro-Brazilian Religion of Bahia Candomblé is the Afro-Brazilian religion of Brazil that originated in the state of Bahia in northeast Brazil. It is part of the religion and culture of the Africa diaspora, which include the religions of Cuban Santeria and Vodun of Haiti. Although the spellings and pronunciations of the deities (called orixás in Candomblé) are different between the countries due to syncretism and miscegenation, they have a shared tradition of rituals, songs, rhythms, mythology, worship, and social and cultural context. Of the approximate 10 million Africans that were enslaved and brought to the Americas, 4 million of those landed in Brazil. During the years of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade (1500-1850), Africans were taken from 3 different regions. Candomblé originated in the state of Bahia and its capital city of Salvador as a result of the concentration of enslaved Africans. The religious traditions of the enslaved Africans were founded on practices from Central and West Africa, who believed in a single god that was accompanied by a pantheon of deities called Orixás. Due to the mixing of the different tribal and cultural groups, the slaves were allowed to form irmandades, which were social organizations of Catholic lay brotherhoods that allowed the slaves to gather together from their points of origin in Africa. As a result of oppression, the enslaved Africans disguised their worship by syncretizing the orixás and religious rituals with the saints of Catholicism.

  • “Latinizing” Your School Jazz Ensemble
    “LATINIZING” YOUR SCHOOL JAZZ ENSEMBLE: PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS FOR ACHIEVING AN AUTHENTIC LATIN SOUND Michele Fernandez Denlinger Clinician Also featuring : The ‘’Caliente’’ Rhythm Section Mr. Jose Antonio Diaz, Director December 14, 2016 The Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic Chicago, Ill Playing and teaching the various forms of Latin music should not be viewed as an enigmatic challenge, although this undertaking is often described as such by music instructors everywhere. It is actually quite simple if one has access to the right concepts and patterns. During my years as a high school director I had the opportunity (and necessity) to observe and develop rehearsal techniques that allowed the jazz ensemble at Miami High to achieve the authentic sound that my students so much enjoyed sharing through many venues. However, it was only after my later experiences as a clinician, conference speaker and adjudicator that I actually made an attempt to collate and organize the principles and techniques I (sometimes unconsciously) applied with my students throughout my time as a director. This handout contains some basic principles and rehearsal suggestions that I hope will help any director/student unfamiliar with some of the major styles in this genre (and perhaps those a bit more familiar as well) to begin to teach and explore this infectious brand of music with more vigor and authenticity. Most of all: Have a great time; “Latin” music is truly a blast to play and teach! Michele *Questions/assistance regarding any material in this presentation will be promptly (and gladly) answered. Please refer to Section VII: Clinician BIO for contact info.
