  • Antolini, Retta Maniera Di Scivere Per Il Clarinetto (1813)
    Francesco Antolini La Retta Maniera di Scrivere per il Clarinetto (The Right Way to Write for the Clarinet) Milan (1813) Translated by Sion M. Honea 1 Translator’s Preface Antolini’s book is an interesting precursor to what would become the standard approach to the treatment of orchestration in the form of the treatises by Georg Kastner, Traité Général d’Instrumentation (1837) and Hector Berlioz Grand Traité d’Instrumentation et d’Orchestration (1843). What makes it interesting is not that it is nearly exclusively devoted to the issues of only one instrument, which was more nearly the earlier norm, but that it represents a time when the evolution of instruments of all types was happening so rapidly and with so many innovations, even so, in regard to physical development of the clarinet Antolini is conservative, advocating the five-key instrument and viewing even the six-key one skeptically. Rather, what makes Antolini’s book particularly interesting is that it is so revealing of a liminal period in which writing for these rapidly developing instruments was still for most composers so mysterious a practice and when the demand for expanded harmonic potential was accelerating. The author does give practical information about range and particular difficulties, especially those associated with different keys for an instrument only just emerging from its diatonic forebears, and for which he finds it only natural to give parallel but separate “diatonic” and “chromatic” fingering charts. The bulk of his treatment, however, centers on the mere technique of writing for the clarinet, of how to figure out the pitch level and key for the written parts of the transposing instrument, a term to which Antolini objects; indeed, it is only this preoccupation with transposition that justifies the inclusion of a section in the appendix on the horn and trumpet.

  • Sgt Peppers Lonely Heart's Club Band Guide
    Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band The Beatles-1966 Album Cover Tonality:E Major Texture: Homophonic and ‘With a Little Help From My Antiphonal phrasing Rhythm: Swung-tied Friends’ quavers Tempo: 112 BPM Time signature: 4/4 Other Features: Melodic movement in bass line THE BEATLES - SGT PEPPERS… "1 ‘With a Little Help From My Friends’ (Track 2) The song moves from track 1-2 without a break introducing the character of Billy Shears (the singer of the melody-Ringo Starr). Ringo was the drummer in the Beatles. Structure ! The accompanying chords ‘plod’ along in a crotchet rhythm (1 beat per chord), you can hear this particularly on the piano. The overall rhythm of the backing and vocal melody is of a steady shuffle which is found in rock and roll. A shuffle beat essentially breaks up each crotchet (1 beat note) into a triplet, the first two being tied to each other. The vocal melody is swung rather than played straight quavers. What is interesting about the melody is that after the first note, the shuffle beat places each of the important words in the text, do, sang, tune, stand, walk and me just slightly before the beat making them prominent and having greater emphasis. The tied quavers on each of these notes create a sense of syncopation in the rhythm of the melody. The sequential movement between the first four notes of bar 1, and the first four notes of bar 2, help to give it a sense of shape and balance, and all of this within the narrow range of a perfect fifth, E to B, simple, but extremely effective.

  • CMP Teaching Plan for the Prelude to Suite No. 1 in G Major, BWV 1007 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) Prepared by Cornelia Watkins
    CMP Teaching Plan for the Prelude to Suite No. 1 in G Major, BWV 1007 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) Prepared by Cornelia Watkins Instrumentation Solo Cello Publisher A vast number of editions are available, but Barenreiter is recommended for its scholarship, readability, and spare edits, leaving room for analysis and individual interpretation. ANALYSIS Broad Description This Prelude is the first of six movements of the first of six cello suites—the introduction to the entire set composed for cello solo. It is accessible and memorable at first hearing at as it is complex on multiple levels—the more you hear it the more you want to hear it again; the more you explore, the more you find. Type/Genre In all the Suites, Bach begins with a through-composed, almost fantasia-like Prelude that establishes the key and the overall mood of the five dance movements that follow. The music is complete without accompaniment, as the cello “accompanies” itself with embedded voices and harmonies, created with double-stop writing, chords, and linear outlines of the harmonies through scales, triads, and distinct leaps to the bass notes. Background Information The Cello Suites are believed to have been composed 1717-1723 (as were the Partitas and Sonatas for Solo Violin) when Bach was in his 30’s while employed by Prince Leopold of Anhalt-Cöthen. The set of six suites seem to have been fully conceived (if not composed) in progressive order, as the keys create an overall emotional contour (G Major, D Minor, C Major/ Eb Major, C minor, D Major) and composed with increasing technical challenges and expressive sophistication.

    THANK YOU TO ALL OUR FESTIVAL SPONSORS Presenting Sponsor Producers Circle Design Sponsor Applauders Circle Sponsors Circle Media Partners Welcome to the 44th Ann Arbor Folk Festival This year The Ark presents an Ann Arbor Folk Festival like no other: a musical feast delivered to you at home, wherever that happens to be. In 2020 we counted ourselves lucky to have presented the Ann Arbor Folk Festival before Covid-19 arrived and changed the landscape so completely. This year, with venues shuttered and tours canceled, we’re thrilled to be able to present the Folk Festival at all. We’re deeply grateful to our Presenting Sponsor, Ford Motor Company Fund, and to all of our corporate partners for making this virtual production possible. And this year’s artists? We can’t thank them enough for bringing all this music to us at a time when we need it most. Although we miss being together in person, the virtual format does have some advantages: the 44th Ann Arbor Folk Festival is packed with nearly twice the number of artists we’re usually able to present. Featuring some of our closest Ark Family as well as a few artists we’re just getting to know, this year’s Folk Fest promises to be one for the ages. Another advantage to the virtual format: you can enjoy the program for a full week following the initial broadcast. In addition to showcasing some of the finest folk- and roots-based artists playing today, the Ann Arbor Folk Festival is The Ark’s largest annual fundraising event, typically supporting our presentation of over 300 shows each year in the 400-seat Ford Listening Room at The Ark.
