[Hornlist] Sibelius Effect..... Bad Low ball...

2007-02-21 Thread matthew scheffelman
If one of the last things I wrote was the Sibelius Seventh Symphony (one of the greatest pieces of music, ever) I would quit composing. The insult is silly and immature. Clearly someone with a fear of polar bears and long winters. All joking aside. Sibelius's music is not for the lar

Some hornist should tape an 'after-beat' rant, from all those marches we played under protest in high school...would make the cello part in Pachelbel look pretty good by comparison. Fred - Original Message From: David Goldberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: The Horn List Sent: Wednesday, Fe

Aren't we being a little hard on ol' John Williams. Amongst the déjà vu strains in his music, even some of those are quite brilliant (e.g. the Asteroid Belt sequence in Star Wars V, which is reminiscent of Bernard Herman's work for Hitchcock films), and other passages are very original and quite l

A week ago I played 6th horn with Spokane Symphony in the performance of Glière's Symphony No 3 'Ilya Murometz' and it was really a fun experience.

Often, beginning band books have some duets in them. Also, some methods have extra volumes of duets that work for any instrumentation (like the horn and saxophone duets my friend and I played in church in fifth grade). I'd check what band method your student is using, and see if there is anyth

A new report now says that the 'Mozart Effect' is a fraud. Contrary to earlier claims, playing Mozart for your baby will not improve his IQ or help her get into a top college. (Of course, we're all better off from listening to Mozart purely for the pleasure of it.) However, research on other
