While not especially numerous, his works exhibit a sense of great responsibility for each note. He would certainly be more prolific, if this were not the case. He is equally at ease in writing choral, instrumental, and vocal-instrumental music. His work can be classified in four groups according to time of creation. (1) until 1962, search of inspiration dominated by folklore and neostyles ( Toccata ). (2) 1962-1971, a novel and original method of organizing musical time, which resulted in new textural, rhythmic and expressive means ( Visions I , Fragmenti ). (3) 1972-1981 period of stylistic transition towards aleatorics, free sonoric idiom and complex structural approach that is signified by the use of micrometric scale along with the traditional staff notation. Performers gain considerable freedom of choice as far as musical instruments are concerned (e.g., Vox for any wind instrument, Images II for any bowed string instrument).

  • An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English
    An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English Excerpted from Word Power, Public Speaking Confidence, and Dictionary-Based Learning, Copyright © 2007 by Robert Oliphant, columnist, Education News Author of The Latin-Old English Glossary in British Museum MS 3376 (Mouton, 1966) and A Piano for Mrs. Cimino (Prentice Hall, 1980) INTRODUCTION Strictly speaking, this is simply a list of technical terms: 30,680 of them presented in an alphabetical sequence of 52 professional subject fields ranging from Aeronautics to Zoology. Practically considered, though, every item on the list can be quickly accessed in the Random House Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary (RHU), updated second edition of 2007, or in its CD – ROM WordGenius® version. So what’s here is actually an in-depth learning tool for mastering the basic vocabularies of what today can fairly be called American-Pronunciation Internationalist High Tech Latinate English. Dictionary authority. This list, by virtue of its dictionary link, has far more authority than a conventional professional-subject glossary, even the one offered online by the University of Maryland Medical Center. American dictionaries, after all, have always assigned their technical terms to professional experts in specific fields, identified those experts in print, and in effect held them responsible for the accuracy and comprehensiveness of each entry. Even more important, the entries themselves offer learners a complete sketch of each target word (headword). Memorization. For professionals, memorization is a basic career requirement. Any physician will tell you how much of it is called for in medical school and how hard it is, thanks to thousands of strange, exotic shapes like <myocardium> that have to be taken apart in the mind and reassembled like pieces of an unpronounceable jigsaw puzzle.

Zamierzeniem pomysłodawców jest, by seria ta ewoluowała w kierunku naukowego czasopisma uniwersyteckiego o profi lu artystycznym, które stworzy intelektualną i sprawozdawczą płaszczyznę komunikacji w naszej uczelni, obejmującą różne formy prezentacji zagadnień dotyczących muzyki: od naukowych dysertacji, przez rozważania na temat sztuki wykonawczej i kształcenia, po teksty publicystyczne. Musica Intellectualis służy prezentowaniu wyników badań prowadzonych przede wszystkim przez osoby związane z UMFC – profesorów, pracowników uczelni, doktorantów, absolwentów i studentów – ale jest otwarta również dla autorów z innych ośrodków artystycznych i naukowych. Zintegrowanie myśli twórczej w ramach jednej platformy komunikacyjnej daje szansę wypowiedzi zarówno teoretykom muzyki, jak i przedstawicielom kierunków wykonawczych. Materiały w Musica Intellectualis ukazują się w języku polskim w postaci artykułów, recenzji, sprawozdań i wywiadów, przyporządkowanych do kilku bloków tematycznych: Szkice i refl eksje, Sylwetki, Studia, Sztuka wykonawcza i kształcenie oraz Varia – wydarzenia, płyty, książki. Wszystkie teksty (poza działem Varia) są opatrzone biogramami autorów w języku polskim i angielskim.

In contrast to its ‘brass’ colleague, however, the clarinet, an instrument which has a brighter sound and is no stranger to a folk band, is in a constantly dazzling dialogue with the piano, whose part is characterised by tart, dissonant harmonies.

  • From Kotoński to Duchnowski. Polish Electroacoustic Music
    MIECZYSŁAW KOMINEK (Warszawa) From Kotoński to Duchnowski. Polish electroacoustic music ABSTRACT: Founded in November 1957, the Experimental Studio of Polish Radio (SEPR) was the fifth electronic music studio in Europe and the seventh in the world. It was an extraordinary phenomenon in the reality of the People’s Poland of those times, equally exceptional as the Warsaw Autumn International Festival of Contemporary Music, established around the same time - in 1956. Both these ‘institutions’ would be of fundamental significance for contemporary Polish music, and they would collabo­ rate closely with one another. But the history of Polish electroacoustic music would to a large extent be the history of the Experimental Studio. The first autonomous work for tape in Poland was Włodzimierz Kotoñski’s Etiuda konkretna (na jedno uderzenie w talerz) [Concrete study (for a single strike of a cymbal)], completed in November 1958. It was performed at the Warsaw Autumn in i960, and from then on electroacoustic music was a fixture at the festival, even a marker of the festival’s ‘modernity’, up to 2002 - the year when the last special ‘con­ cert of electroacoustic music’ appeared on the programme. In 2004, the SEPR ceased its activities, but thanks to computers, every composer can now have a studio at home. There are also thriving electroacoustic studios at music academies, with the Wroclaw studio to the fore, founded in 1998 by Stanisław Krupowicz, the leading light of which became Cezary Duchnowski. Also established in Wroclaw, in 2005, was the biennial International Festival of Electroacoustic Music ‘Música Electrónica Nova’. KEYWORDS: electroacoustic music, electronic music, concrete music, music for tape, generators, experimental Studio of Polish Radio, “Warsaw Autumn” International Festival of Contemporary Music, live electronic, synthesisers, computer music The beginnings of electroacoustic music can be sought in works scored for, or including, electric instruments.

TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE, The merit of Medicus' " Qualitative Analysis," and its popularity, which is shown by its having already passed through five editions in the German language, led to this translation. The translator has taken the liberty of rearranging the elements in the first part of the book into groups, to corre- spond with their precipitation by group reagents, and also of adding two tables and amplifying the text to the extent of about forty pages. J. M. Philadelphia, 1892. PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. In the second edition a number of additions and changes have been made in the parts treating of the methods of procedure in the separation of the bases into groups. A table showing the solubility of many of the salts of the commonly occurring metals has also been added. J.

    MANA Progress MANA R eport Facts and Achievements 2010 Facts and Achievements 2010 MANA is operating with the financial support of the World Premier International Research Center Initiative (WPI) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) April 2011 Preface Masakazu Aono MANA Director-General NIMS More than three years have passed since our International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) was launched in the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in October 2007 as one of six research centers approved/supported by the World Premier International Research Initiative (WPI Program) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology (MEXT). The aim of MANA is to carry out world topnotch research for the creation of novel materials necessary for the development of innovative technologies that are inevitable for the realization of the sustainable society in the 21st century. Thankfully, in the year 2010 so many outcomes of MANA have materialized; several scientists young and senior won prestigious awards and a number of research outcomes were published in high impact journals. Consequently, MANA activities and research achievements have been highlighted in many TV programs and news, and appeared in a number of articles in newspapers and magazines. For our readers’ convenience, the MANA Progress Report consists of two booklets named “Facts and Achievement 2010” and “Research Digest 2010”. This booklet, which is the part “Facts and Achievements 2010”, serves as a summary to highlight the progress of the MANA project in 2010. The other booklet “Research Digest 2010” contains an overview of MANA research activities in the calendar year 2010.
