The published article is available in Dance Chronicle, JSTOR and EBSCO. Abstract: Alicia Alonso contended that the musicality of Cuban ballet dancers contributed to a distinctive national style in their performance of European classics such as Giselle and Swan Lake. A highly developed sense of musicality distinguished Alonso’s own dancing. For the ballerina, this was more than just an element of her individual style: it was an expression of the Cuban cultural environment and a common feature among ballet dancers from the island. In addition to elucidating the physical manifestations of musicality in Alonso’s dancing, this article examines how the ballerina’s frequent references to music in connection to both her individual identity and the Cuban ballet aesthetics fit into a national discourse of self-representation that deems Cubans an exceptionally musical people. -
Polyrhythmic Tapping: Examining the Effectiveness of the Strategy of Organizing Rhythmic Structures Through Synthesis

Its effectiveness for teaching the execution of 3:2, 4:3, 8:3, 5:4, and 3:5 polyrhythmic structures is examined and described. Pre-test and Post-test Control Group Design was employed to test the effectiveness of the strategy of organizing rhythmic structures through synthesis. The participants of the study were undergraduate students (N = 18) in their second year of study at the Gaziosmanpaşa University Education Faculty’s Music Education Department in the fall semester of the 2012-2013 academic year. The Polyrhythmic Tapping Test was used as a measuring instrument. Two tests were employed in this study. The Wilcoxon Signed- Rank Test was employed to analyze the pre-test and post-test data from both the experimental and control groups. The Mann Whitney U Test was used as a one-sided test to determine the variances (for the experimental and control groups) before the experiment and to determine the variances after the experiment. The results confirm that organizing rhythmic structures through synthesis is an effective way to learn how to perform 3:2, 4:3, 8:3, 5:4, and 3:5 polyrhythmic structures. -
1 Making the Clarinet Sing
Making the Clarinet Sing: Enhancing Clarinet Tone, Breathing, and Phrase Nuance through Voice Pedagogy D.M.A Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Alyssa Rose Powell, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 D.M.A. Document Committee Dr. Caroline A. Hartig, Advisor Dr. Scott McCoy Dr. Eugenia Costa-Giomi Professor Katherine Borst Jones 1 Copyrighted by Alyssa Rose Powell 2020 2 Abstract The clarinet has been favorably compared to the human singing voice since its invention and continues to be sought after for its expressive, singing qualities. How is the clarinet like the human singing voice? What facets of singing do clarinetists strive to imitate? Can voice pedagogy inform clarinet playing to improve technique and artistry? This study begins with a brief historical investigation into the origins of modern voice technique, bel canto, and highlights the way it influenced the development of the clarinet. Bel canto set the standards for tone, expression, and pedagogy in classical western singing which was reflected in the clarinet tradition a hundred years later. Present day clarinetists still use bel canto principles, implying the potential relevance of other facets of modern voice pedagogy. Singing techniques for breathing, tone conceptualization, registration, and timbral nuance are explored along with their possible relevance to clarinet performance. The singer ‘in action’ is presented through an analysis of the phrasing used by Maria Callas in a portion of ‘Donde lieta’ from Puccini’s La Bohème. This demonstrates the influence of text on interpretation for singers. -

S. McKenzie’s reminiscence. (pg. 254) The role of Reading Rooms While every Christian Scientist has the privilege of distributing these sacred writings, the opportunity of doing so in the appointed order belongs especially to our Reading Rooms and our Distribution Committees. Mrs. Eddy once spoke of “home” as “your calm, sacred retreat.” We may think of our Reading Rooms, too, as a spiritual home and sacred retreat for church members as well as for inquirers. In them is spread a banquet of sustaining food for the seeker after healing of mind and body. The doubting, the distressed, the bewildered, the weary, may find in the shelter of the Reading Room the quiet and peace in which to ponder and pray, and to gain direction from the intimate Love which is ever seeking to find that which is lost, to heal that which is broken, and to comfort “as one whom his mother comforteth” (Isaiah 66:13). Our Leader has provided in the Manual that no reading be done in a Reading Room except that of her writings, the Bible, and our authorized publications, and that secular matters not be discussed, that this atmosphere of calm and holy meditation may be always found there. May our church members realize more fully the purpose of the Reading Rooms and avail themselves more often of the tender care shown in providing them. -
