If you dropped by now you would find two or three people crawling around on the floor, clutching bulk erasers in their hands like old flat irons a nd whirl ing away at any tape in si ght. A bulk eraser eats things with more non­ chalance than a pet cat. One offhand swipe and weeks of music, poetry, and thought disappear into its buzzing little plastic body, never to return. And all that's left is a tape that THUNKS with interesting regularity, interesting for awhile maybe, but not something to really hold your attention. And sometimes, when you use the tape again and you're not careful, the thunks keep appearing irt the new re'cording, like the death rattles of the programs that were there before. Then the engineer says, "sorry folks" and we play the tape anyway. But by that time it's pointless because no one listens to the program then. Only that audio throb is important, and especially the next one, the one you know is coming but haven't endured yet. Remember the scene where Richard Loo has Audie l1ur phy strapped to a table and he's giving him the water torture? "Give me information, yankee dog", snarls Richard Loo, fondling his swagger stick (drip). Then Audie l1urphy rises upon .one (drip ) elbow (an impossible task) and screams (drip) "NEVER!" and Richard Loo turns to his assistant (drip) and says "Captain Andrews is thirsty. He wants more water." (Scree, drip, drip) Then, right before he passes (drip) out Audie (drip) l1urphy mumbles his (drip) sweetheart's name (usually Ginger) (drip) and Richard Loo whaps him in the shins (drip) with his swagger stick (which breaks) and the drops of water mingle with Au~ie l1urphy's tears. KRAB's thunks are like that. *************************** THE FREE SPIRIT A Montessori Pre-School 509-10th Avenue East Seattle EA4-4154 LA4-6580 *************************** FOR SALE - Uher Stereo Tape Recorder, Model 44<>, with batteries, battery charger, sennoheiser microphone, black leather case, perfect condition.

  • Marco Polo – the Label of Discovery
    Marco Polo – The Label of Discovery Doubt was expressed by his contemporaries as to the truth of Marco Polo’s account of his years at the court of the Mongol Emperor of China. For some he was known as a man of a million lies, and one recent scholar has plausibly suggested that the account of his travels was a fiction inspired by a family dispute. There is, though, no doubt about the musical treasures daily uncovered by the Marco Polo record label. To paraphrase Marco Polo himself: All people who wish to know the varied music of men and the peculiarities of the various regions of the world, buy these recordings and listen with open ears. The original concept of the Marco Polo label was to bring to listeners unknown compositions by well-known composers. There was, at the same time, an ambition to bring the East to the West. Since then there have been many changes in public taste and in the availability of recorded music. Composers once little known are now easily available in recordings. Marco Polo, in consequence, has set out on further adventures of discovery and exploration. One early field of exploration lay in the work of later Romantic composers, whose turn has now come again. In addition to pioneering recordings of the operas of Franz Schreker, Der ferne Klang (The Distant Sound), Die Gezeichneten (The Marked Ones) and Die Flammen (The Flames), were three operas by Wagner’s son, Siegfried. Der Bärenhäuter (The Man in the Bear’s Skin), Banadietrich and Schwarzschwanenreich (The Kingdom of the Black Swan) explore a mysterious medieval world of German legend in a musical language more akin to that of his teacher Humperdinck than to that of his father.

In construction it follows the principles used by early Italian violins, but in shape Tand in the way it is tuned the Hardanger fiddle differs from the common European violin. The bridge and the fingerboard are much lower. The strings, which are specially made for the instru ment, are thinner than violin strings. The neck is shorter, as is the free length of the strings. The body of the instrument is narrower and the sound holes are longer and the edges thicker. In addition to the ‘upper’ strings the Hardanger fiddle is also fitted with up to four lower strings. The lower strings are not played by the bow and their tuning is normally fixed at A, F sharp, E and D, counting downwards.

  • Geirr Tveitt Was Born in Bergen in 1908, but Spent Most of His Childhood in Drammen South of Oslo. He Was Baptized Nils Tve
    Hallgjerd Aksnes, University of Oslo [email protected] IAML Congress, Oslo, Aug. 2004 Geirr Tveitt Geirr Tveitt was born in Bergen in 1908, but spent most of his childhood in Drammen south of Oslo. He was baptized Nils Tveit, but changed his name a number of times during the interwar period, and it was only after World War II that he started operating with the spelling by which he is known today. Tveitt’s parents were from Hardanger in Western Norway, where Tveitt spent his childhood summers, and where he finally established himself on the farm of his ancestors in 1941, after five years of music studies abroad, followed by a number of years in Oslo. In the mid 1950’s Tveitt started commuting between Hardanger and Oslo, and moved permanently to Oslo in 1967, where he lived until his death in 1981. Tveitt was among the best educated composers of his generation in Norway, and his diverse background is reflected in his music. With very little formal musical training he was admitted to the renowned Leipzig Conservatory in 1928, studying composition with Hermann Grabner and Leopold Weninger and piano with Otto Weinreich until 1932. Tveitt’s progress both as a composer and pianist was extraordinary, and he made quite a stir with works like 12 zweistimmige Vorstudien in lydisch, dorisch und phrygisch, which was published by Breitkopf & Härtel in 1930, and Piano Concerto no. 1, which was premiered by the Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra in 1931. Between 1932 and 1933 Tveitt also lived in Paris and Vienna, and claimed to have consulted a number of influential composers and teachers in these cities.
