About the WorkThe text of this work is most often attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson, although it doesn't mirror his style, and no research credits an essay, book or letter with its source. Other individuals are occasionally suggested as possible authors, but equally unsubstantiated. Even whether the textis a poem or a quote seems unclear. But there is one thing that is without question: that this beloved text has inspired countless people and contributed toward a view of the world through eyes of hope, resilience, courage, beauty, and joy. Music for this text flowed more easily than about any text I have ever set. It has an emotional connection that is mystical, and after I read it for the first time, I immediately sat down and wrote this work without stop.Rehearsal NotesIn many cases, art is more expressive and reaches a wider range of human emotions when multiple artistic fields are fused together. Such is the case with choral music: the intertwining of literature, music, and very often dance, visual arts, and more. The story in choral music is often quite specific, much like film scoring. At times, the music is the picture frame (score) around the picture (text), while at others the music is the leading dramatic/emotional impetus.In the present case (My Farewell Wish), the text is sincere, innocent, heartfelt, and earnest. By all accounts, the message is altruistic, expressing selfless desire for another's present/future happiness. Capturing this message has a strong reliance on the performers to not only carry the emotional intent of the moment (a phrase of text or a measure), but the the energy and continuance of the message throughout.The use of the [o] vowel functions almost as instrumental interludes or underpinning of strings. The conductor may use the [o] as indicated in the score, or a [u] vowel, a hum (with [o] as the vowel inside the mouth), or all three at different times for different reasons. In an acoustical performance (no mic), the soloist and the ensemble are a reflection of each other's natural sound. And, even gentle, warm solo voices should have no trouble projecting.Two final thoughts: 1) the obbligato or added voice or two on high passages (m. 66) or a single note (final chord) will be best delivered by lyrical, pure voices with demonstrated control; and 2) the metronome marking of 80 bpm (mm. 1–81) was strongly considered and should be followed.About the ComposerZ.

His composition teachers were Normand Lockwood and Cecil Effinger, both students of the Nadia Boulanger, the famous French teacher (and student of Gabriel FaureÌ).

In 'Microphone Practice', Norbert Pawera, a qualified sound engineer and microphone specialist, explains in clear and simple language the difference between the various types of microphone, filling in the scientific background and examining the interaction between instruments, room acoustics and microphones. The emphasis of the book is upon the choice and positioning of microphones in the studio and on stage, whether for classical music, jazz or rock. The author offers practical solutions to a whole range of commonly encountered problems - from the miking of lead vocals to the recording of whole choirs, from the spot-miking of individual instruments to stereo recording techniques for the entire orchestra - as well as reaching deep into his bag of tricks for ideas that should give even the experienced recording engineer food for thought. At the back, there's an overview of today's microphone market, designed to guide the consumer through the myriad of available solutions. 'Microphone Practice' spares performers and sound engineers alike the time-consuming and costly hazards of trial-and-error. With its practical approach and clear layout, 'Microphone Practice' is designed not just as a textbook but also as a quick source of reference for the sound check or the studio.

In preparing arrangements for conducting ensembles, for schools and music schools, you don't need the tricks of the pros, but specific arranging strategies tailored to your own ensemble, your own group. So, although the vast majority of arrangements are educationally motivated, lacking so far has been a reference book on educational arranging. Sounds Good, combining decades of didactic experience on the part of composer Felix Janosa and music educator Jorg Sommerfeld, is the first standard work on the technique and strategy of pedagogical arranging: a compendium, both inspiring with its compact as well as comprehensive approach, while also valuably time-saving with its well-developed systematic working methods and efficient working techniques. Numerous examples for duos, trios, class music-making, for inclusive ensembles, school orchestras, big bands, choirs, combos, intercultural ensembles and many more application fields offer a huge fund of practical ideas. A compact educational instrument guide describes which skills and abilities can be expected from beginners and at which point in time. Also covered is the topic of arranging without notes or with computers and electronics.Sounds Good contains over 200 music examples, most of them also accessible as digital files. It further offers 30 practice projects with sample solutions; numerous tables and overviews serve as a useful resource for the everyday, teaching-staff arrangers. And, last but not least, Sounds Good is an exciting foray into the most diverse fields of music education.It's hard to imagine what I might have become if this work had existed earlier. But it's never too late....

Juhani Nuorvala, described as an “electro-acoustic urban minimalist, seeks inspiration from widely varied sources. With the enthusiasm of an explorer, he has delved into microtonality, French spectral music, techno and rock. It all becomes organically fused into his own idiom, often characterised by a frenzied rhythmic drive. Prélude non retouché (2012) for organ in ¼ comma meantone tuning with C# Eb F# G# Bb celebrates these features with light-hearted and easy-going mood, with attractive roughness due to tuning system.
