March 2016 Vol SEATTLE RECORDER SOCIETY Recorder Notes March 2016 Vol. XLVII, No. 7 www.seattle-recorder.org From the Music Director (Vicki Boeckman) SRS Meeting Greetings, Everyone, Friday, March 4th, 2016 (Peter Seibert) Ah, the light doth return to the great @ 7:30 p.m Northwest! February and March are such hopeful months, are they not, with winter buds blossoming and the light enticing us with promise of longer days? Opening Program Sand Dalton Speaking of promises, I promised the large Historical Oboes group that we would revisit Peter's arrangement of Handel's “Music for the Royal Fireworks.” Such a grand piece deserves a lot more attention than we were able to give it at the Playing Session) January session. I would like to devote most of the evening to this 8-part (Vicki Boeckman) five-movement work. Here is a little bit of history. Thirty years after King Handel’s “Music for George's memorable barge trip on the river Thames in 1717, for which the Royal Fireworks” Handel's “Water Music” was written, Charles II was eager to celebrate the and Josquin Desprez’ end of the long, slow war. No expense was to be spared, and an over-the-top “Ave Maria . Virgo serena” grand extravaganza in London's Green Park complete with fireworks and theatrical backdrops was set in motion. Handel, being the composer of (All sizes of recorders, viols, choice for all royal celebrations, was called upon to write the music for and soft reeds welcome) this grand event. We know that the music was an incredible success with timpanis, natural trumpets, horns, winds, and strings, but unfortunately the fireworks display was doused by a downpour of rain. Luckily we will The Backroom Gang be indoors when we play on March 4th! (Laura Faber) Before plunging into the Handel, I would like to invite everyone to Music will be provided. play Josquin Desprez' gorgeous 4-part “Ave Maria … Virgo serena.” This is Continuing with tunes from the perhaps Josquin's most famous composition—certainly the work that is Shakespearean and Jacobean most often sung today. Written sometime between 1476 and 1497, during eras arranged for 3 and 4 the composer's service at one of several French and Northern Italian courts, recorders.

More information will be April 8, 2016 provided as the date gets closer. May 6, 2016 An Interview with Sally Mitchell of the Backroom Gang (Vicki Boeckman) The Backroom Gang will be led by Laura Faber for the March meeting. To share a bit of history of the “gang” with all SRS members, Vicki Boeckman interview(Peter edSeibert) Sally Mitchell. Vicki Boeckman: What is the main purpose and intent of the Backroom Gang? Sally Mitchell: The purpose of this group is to provide an ensemble experience for players who are not yet ready to play in the large group. This has included beginners, returning players who are rusty, and players who are switching recorder sizes. I aim to provide a supportive and educational setting, preparing them to be “mainstreamed” back into the big group. Vicki: Please give us the back story on the Backroom Gang. How did it start and how long has it been going on? Sally: Actually, SRS has had a lower-level group going for decades, under various names. Peggy Monroe led it from 1985 to 2007 and named it Petite Consort (to contrast with the “Grand Consort” that Peter led). I took over in 2010. At first I had no “group” per se. Although there were some players for whom the Grand Consort was a challenge, no one wanted to break away and work separately. I would sit next to whoever was having difficulty and help them out by indicating entrances, pointing to our spot in the music when they got lost, and reminding them of fingerings. In that way I became the “Recorder Coach.” When Laura Faber began teaching recorder classes we suddenly had a group of beginners coming to SRS. This group was advancing steadily, and I tailored my music selections to their progress. The size of the group grew steadily as well; at one meeting we had 16 players! Laura’s students worked hard and kept improving. I eventually declared that this was no longer a “Beginners” group, and renamed it the Backroom Gang. By this past fall, Laura’s group of students had all graduated into the big group, and the Backroom Gang shrank drastically. I had only two people at each of the first three meetings of the year. In January, however, a robust group of four showed up. I’m hopeful that they’ll continue. Vicki: What types of pieces do you play? Sally: I use a wide variety: Bach chorales, Renaissance dances and vocal music, a little bit of medieval music, and some pieces composed for the group. Vicki: Is it hard to prepare when you're not sure who is going to show up, or do you enjoy the challenge of being able to improvise? Sally: Sure, it’s hard to prepare for an unknown group. I always have a variety of music with me that will (hopefully!) suit the group that comes. I choose music that will work with players of different abilities and that emphasizes different technical and musical challenges. I do enjoy the challenge of “making it work” —it almost always does! But, of course, the planning is easier if I have a consistent group (as I did for a few years). Vicki: You've been teaching a long time, so I'm sure you have many pearls of wisdom in your back pocket. Sally: My advice to beginning players: be patient with yourself, allow yourself to develop at your own pace, celebrate your progress, and practice! Two Celebrations for “Play-the-Recorder Month” — March, 2016 First Event: Saturday, March 12th — 10 a.m. – Noon What: “Play-the-Recorder Month Repertoire Past and Present” Explore the new piece “Steamed Bass and Fischmaul” by Matthias Maute & look at old favorites from years past.

  • Baptism for the Dead at Nauvoo
    "What Has Become of Our Fathers?" Baptism for the Dead at Nauvoo M. Guy Bishop Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? (1 Cor. 15:29) ALTHOUGH THE BIBLE briefly mentions vicarious baptism, the belief was not a part of mid-nineteenth-century American religions. Even such denominations as the Disciples of Christ (Campbellites), who professed to find the "law" for Christian life and worship spelled out within the New Testament, offered no response to the Apostle Paul's reference to baptism for the dead (Ahlstrom 1972, 447-49). It was left to Joseph Smith and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to establish a doctrinal stance on the subject. In an epistle to the early saints of Corinth, Paul mentioned vicari- ous baptism in relation to the resurrection and as a way to overcome humankind's "last enemy"—death. This final victory was also a great concern to the Latter-day Saints in Nauvoo. Many Saints had died in the Mormon War in Missouri during 1838 and in malaria-ridden M. GUY BISHOP is head of Research Services, Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. A version of this essay was presented at the Mormon History Association meetings in Quincy, Illinios, May 1989. DIALOGUE: A JOURNAL OF MORMON THOUGHT Nauvoo in the early 1840s. Finding a way to, in a sense, overcome death must have been a comfort to those constantly reminded of the frailties of mortality (Bishop 1986; Meyers 1975; Bishop, Lacey, and Wixon 1986).

Through historical research and a study of primary sources such as line-cut facsimiles, I sought to answer the question, how did the triple impression and single impression methods of printing develop, and is one superior to the other? While Petrucci’s triple impression method produced cleaner and more connected staves, a significant number of problems resulted, including pitch accuracy and cost efficiency.
