    west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

  • Articles from 2016
    Preview Shelf Articles for 2016 December 1, 2016 Discovering the Wild Heritage of the Nineteenth State By Dianne Combs It has been a wonderful year of celebration for the state of Indiana. Two hundred years of statehood! We have learned many things about our political and historical heritage, but I believe that Indiana still has many secrets that need to be learned. Here at the library we have some beautiful books that will help you explore the natural history of our great state. “The Natural Heritage of Indiana,” edited by Marion T. Jackson, takes us on a lively jaunt through the terrain of our great state. To my delight, the very first picture in Part One is of the “Honeycomb Rock” at Pine Hills Nature Preserve in the southwestern part of Montgomery County. Glaciation and its effects on our landscape are explained in detail, which helps me to understand all the rock formations I come across while exploring some of our nationally renowned state parks. Throughout this section, written by Henry Gray, we are taken on several tours of Indiana. He describes the terrain as if he were driving along highways and illustrates his discussion with appropriate topographical maps. Our soil and water, wetlands and caves — all these give our state its unique stamp on the map of our nation. Beautiful photographs of the flora and fauna of Indiana fill the pages of this coffee table book. I could spend hours just turning its pages, learning about the native plants and animals with which we share our land. We have recently acquired two copies of “A Place Called Turkey Run — A Celebration of Indiana’s Second State Park in Photographs and Words,” by Daniel P.

  • “Dizzy” Gillespie Was One of the Most Important and Influential Jazz Trumpeters, After Louis Armstrong
    35 lesson9 Meet the Great Jazz Legends dizzygillespie Photo: © Carl Van Vechten, Library of Congress Vechten, Photo: © Carl Van IMPORTANT FACTS TO KNOW ABOUT JOHN “DIZZY” GILLESPIE Born: October 21, 1917, Cheraw, South Carolina Died: January 6, 1993, Englewood, New Jersey Period/Style of Jazz: Bebop, Afro-Cuban Jazz Instrument: Trumpet, bandleader and composer Major Compositions: A Night in Tunisia, Con Alma, Groovin’ High, Manteca Interesting Facts: Dizzy Gillespie invented the modern approach to jazz trumpet playing, which included extending the range of the instrument, improvising in a more linear fashion and playing with dramatic bursts with large interval leaps. He was among the first to use Afro-Cuban music in jazz. Included Listening: A Night in Tunisia Track 9 36 Meet the Great Jazz Legends ■ The Story of Dizzy Gillespie (1917–1993) ohn Birks “Dizzy” Gillespie was one of the most important and influential jazz trumpeters, after Louis Armstrong. Dizzy Gillespie, along with his colleagues Charlie Parker and Thelonious J Monk, are considered to be the “fathers” of the fast-and-furious style called bebop. Dizzy Gillespie was known for his soaring trumpet lines, his puffed cheeks and the tilted bell of his trumpet. He was loved by musicians and fans for his engaging personality and showmanship. Gillespie was inspired to play music by his father who was a bricklayer and part- time musician. Gillespie began playing the piano at the age of 4. He taught himself to play the trumpet by trial and error, with the help of a few friends at the age of 12. In 1935, Gillespie moved to Philadelphia with his mother, after the death of his father.

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

Chisholm stands within the tradi- tional art-versus-commerce debate as an example of the post-World War II craftsman ethos marginalized by an incoming, corporate-determined paradigm.

  • Escúchame, Alúmbrame. Apuntes Sobre El Canon De “La Música Joven”
    ISSN Escúchame, alúmbrame. 0329-2142 Apuntes de Apuntes sobre el canon de “la investigación del CECYP música joven” argentina entre 2015. Año XVII. 1966 y 1973 Nº 25. pp. 11-25. Recibido: 20/03/2015. Aceptado: 5/05/2015. Sergio Pujol* Tema central: Rock I. No caben dudas de que estamos viviendo un tiempo de fuerte interroga- ción sobre el pasado de lo que alguna vez se llamó “la música joven ar- gentina”. Esa música ya no es joven si, apelando a la metáfora biológica y más allá de las edades de sus oyentes, la pensamos como género desarro- llado en el tiempo según etapas de crecimiento y maduración autónomas. Veámoslo de esta manera: entre el primer éxito de Los Gatos y el segundo CD de Acorazado Potemkin ha transcurrido la misma cantidad de años que la que separa la grabación de “Mi noche triste” por Carlos Gardel y el debut del quinteto de Astor Piazzolla. ¿Es mucho, no? En 2013 la revista Rolling Stone edición argentina dedicó un número es- pecial –no fue el primero– a los 100 mejores discos del rock nacional, en un arco que iba de 1967 a 2009. Entre los primeros 20 seleccionados, 9 fueron grabados antes de 1983, el año del regreso de la democracia. Esto revela que, en el imaginario de la cultura rock, el núcleo duro de su obra apuntes precede la época de mayor crecimiento comercial. Esto afirmaría la idea CECYP de una época heroica y proactiva, expurgada de intereses económicos e ideológicamente sostenida en el anticonformismo de la contracultura es- tadounidense adaptada al contexto argentino.
