Vieni Fra Queste Braccia From "The Thieving Magpie", Wendell B. Dobbs Dr., Júlio Ribeiro Alves Apr 2019

Vieni Fra Queste Braccia From "The Thieving Magpie", Wendell B. Dobbs Dr., Júlio Ribeiro Alves

Júlio Ribeiro Alves

Gioachino Rossini’s (1792-1868) meteoric rise in the early 19th-century international opera scene is well known. Over the course of 19 years (1810-29) he composed the music for 39 operas that were produced across Europe and as far away as New York City (1825). As Rossini’s melodies became the common currency of musical life, they were featured in all manner of alternative settings such as these arrangements by two important artists from Parisian society, flutist Jean-Louis Tulou (1786-1865) and guitarist Ferdinando Carulli (1770-1841). Both the flute and the guitar enjoyed great popularity among amateur bourgeoisie and serious artists alike, …

In Search Of The Wind-Band (Video Trailer) Book Video Excerpts From Around The Globe, Dan Rager Feb 2016

In Search Of The Wind-Band (Video Trailer) Book Video Excerpts From Around The Globe, Dan Rager

Dan Rager

 “International Instrumental Dissemination” describes instrument types in 16 countries that include Rock & Roll to Sousa and Puccini. This book explores detailed and precise history. The 21 chapters contain hundreds of photos, videos, mp3 and pdf files bringing to life unknown cultures and ensembles from around the globe from which I visited and recorded first hand. The book is designed to take an entire semester to study and explore. I promise you have never heard or seen most of these groups much less the enormous, precise evolution of instruments presented in the book. Where did our modern instruments evolve from? …


J.S. Bach, Suite For Violoncello Solo, Performed On Mandola, Lee Bidgood Dec 2015

J.S. Bach, Suite For Violoncello Solo, Performed On Mandola, Lee Bidgood

Lee Bidgood

My arrangement of this iconic piece for mandola, an interpretation project that emerged from my work leading a mandolin orchestra at ETSU. This particular recording was facilitated by the discovery of an instrument donated to our department, a 1920s Gibson mandola. This fabulous instrument gave me the voice with which I could articulate the way I heard this piece, one that I have turned over in my head and hands since I was in high school.
