  • The Curtis Sesquicentennial Exposition Organ
    The Curtis Sesquicentennial Exposition Organ Opus 1416, Austin Organ Co., Hartford, Connecticut Opus 1416 was built in 1926 for the Sesquicentennial International Exposition held in Philadelphia. Afterward, the organ was purchased by publisher Cyrus Curtis, donated to the University of Pennsylvania, and installed in the newly-built Irvine Auditorium in 1928-29. It was named the Cyrus H. K. Curtis Organ in honor of Mr. Curtis. Opus 1416, at four manuals, 162 ranks (10,731 pipes) residing in Irvine Auditorium of the University of Pennsylvania, is the magnum opus (executed under a single contract) of the Austin firm. Built for Sesquicentennial Exposition in Philadelphia (in only six months!), it is a masterpiece of Symphonic organ building, remaining one of the very few, if not uniquely, unchanged symphonic instruments of the period. Gilt bust of Benjamin Franklin and Proscenium and principal stenciling detail. University Seal on proscenium beam. Irvine Auditorium: Interior. A grand space for a grand instrument. The majority of the organ is installed behind the stenciled scrims visible at left and right. A portion only of the Pedal Division is housed behind the non-speaking façade pipes. Grey reflector panels were installed in the 1997-2002 renovations. Opus 1416 was relocated to Irvine Auditorium during the building’s construction, occupying the two side second-balconies, originally designated to seat 600. Installation delayed the opening of the hall by nearly two years. The organ also happens to be the second largest instrument in Philadelphia area (after the Wanamaker Organ)! While comparatives and lists change and Irvine Auditorium: Exterior (pre-restoration).

Early-Baroque Keyboard Instruments The Cimbalo cromatico and Other Italian Keyboard Instruments with Nineteen or More Divisions to the Octave (Surviving Specimens and Documentary Evidence) Christopher Stembridge In an earlier article1 it was demonstrated that the cimbalo cromatico was an instrument with nineteen divisions to the octave. Although no such instrument is known to have survived, one harpsichord and a keyboard from another instrument, while subsequently altered, show clear traces of having had 19 keys per octave in the middle range. The concept was further developed to produce instruments with 24, 28, 31, 3, and even 60 keys per octave. With the exception of Trasuntino's 1606 Clavemusicum Omni- tonum, none of these survives; documentary evidence, however, shows that they were related to the cimbalo cromatico, as this article attempts to demonstrate.

  • Ringer Socialisation & Interaction Activities Fun Non-Ringing Team
    Ringer Socialisation & Interaction Activities Fun non-ringing team-building activities for a handbell group Permission granted for reprinting by: Malcolm C Wilson, Dunblane www.ringinpraise.org.uk Continued from Part 1 posted May 2010 in ringEr-Notes Introduction Are you looking for a fun activity that has a handbell theme? Perhaps for a short break from regular ringing rehearsals or at a gathering of many ringer groups, or a ringer party. The idea of a handbell group being a team, working together as one unit and every ringer getting to know each other better can be nurtured by activities such as those that follow. Each of the games below can incorporate further interaction as part of the game e.g. by making it part of the game for each ringer to introduce themselves to the others in their team or perhaps to say something about themselves. And the accent is on fun! Many more familiar games can be given a handbell "twist" - have a "brainstorming" session with other ringers once they've seen the games and your imagination is the only limit! Have fun! Looking for more quick and easy ideas for your choir? Check out Tips & Tools each month in Overtones! Members you can log in now at our website www.agehr.org to see digital archived copies of Overtones. Benefits of Membership Local, Area and National opportunities rolled-up into 1 AGEHR Membership “AGHER is a great organization and provides us with LOTS of continuing information.

  • Italian Harpsichord-Building in the 16Th and 17Th Centuries by John D
    Italian Harpsichord-Building in the 16th and 17th Centuries by John D. Shortridge (REPRINTED WITH CHANGES—1970) CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 225 · Paper 15, Pages 93–107 SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS · WASHINGTON, D.C. · 1970 Figure 1.—OUTER CASE OF ALBANA HARPSICHORD. Italian Harpsichord-Buildingin the 16th and 17th Centuries By John D. Shortridge The making of harpsichords flourished in Italy throughout the 16th and 17th centuries. The Italian instruments were of simpler construction than those built by the North Europeans, and they lacked the familiar second manual and array of stops. In this paper, typical examples of Italian harpsichords from the Hugo Worch Collection in the United States National Museum are described in detail and illustrated. Also, the author offers an explanation for certain puzzling variations in keyboard ranges and vibrating lengths of strings of the Italian harpsichords. THE AUTHOR: John D. Shortridge is associate curator of cultural history in the United States National Museum, Smithsonian Institution. PERHAPS the modern tendency to idealize progress has been responsiblefor the neglect of Italian harpsichords and virginals during the present day revival of interest in old musical instruments. Whatever laudable traits the Italian builders may have had, they cannot be considered to have been progressive. Their instruments of the mid-16th century hardly can be distinguished from those made around 1700. During this 150 years the pioneering Flemish makers added the four-foot register, a second keyboard, and lute and buff stops to their instruments. However, the very fact that the Italian builders were unwilling to change their models suggests that their instruments were good enough to demand no further improvements.
