Passing The Torch: An Interview With Andi Beckendorf And A Tribute To Her Service To The Isb, Jeremy C. Baguyos

Music Faculty Publications

Andi Beckendorf was appointed Associate Editor of Bass World in 2001 and worked alongside the celebrated Editor at that time, Joelle Morton. In 2005, Andi was tapped to assume the post of Editor, and for the past five years the readership has benefited from her professionalism, her precise editing, her astute content management, and her steady and watchful pursuit of the highest possible standards and values of the ISB and its journal. This issue of Bass World will be the first without Andi Beckendorf at the helm, but we are not going to bid farewell. Instead, we are going to …

From The Editor's Desk, Jeremy C. Baguyos Jan 2010

From The Editor's Desk, Jeremy C. Baguyos

Music Faculty Publications

I first joined the ISB as a student member at the urging of Charles Hoag, one of my bass teachers when I was growing up in Kansas. For me, the most important benefit of TSB membership was the ISB's journal. Back in those days when the primary tools for research were card catalogs and the RILM Abstracts, I couldn't just do a Google search on the keywords "double bass" to learn more about my instrument and other bassists. The journal of the International Society of Bassists, presently titled Bass World, was my only link to the national and international double …

Faculty Development In Higher Education: Long-Term Impact Of A Summer Teaching And Learning Workshop, Diane C. Persellin, Terry Goodrick Jan 2010

Faculty Development In Higher Education: Long-Term Impact Of A Summer Teaching And Learning Workshop, Diane C. Persellin, Terry Goodrick

Music Faculty Research

Past participants of the Associated Colleges of the South Summer Teaching and Learning Workshop were surveyed to determine long-term impact of this type of professional development experience. Results indicate a large majority of participants across rank and academic discipline continued to view the workshop as effective and valued feedback from the perspective of the learner. Females were more likely than males to report more awareness and thoughtfulness about their teaching since having attended the workshop and to report having tried new strategies and taken more risks in their teaching. This study supports the importance of an interdisciplinary forum for faculty …

An Approach To Performing Handel Sonatas On The Saxophone, Amy Griffiths Jan 2010

An Approach To Performing Handel Sonatas On The Saxophone, Amy Griffiths

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The saxophone has a long history with transcriptions and arrangements, which augment the saxophone’s repertoire and provide an historical context through which saxophonists may experience music that predates the invention of their instrument. Transcriptions, particularly those from the baroque period, provide excellent pedagogical material for inexperienced students whose educational needs would perhaps not be best served by more contemporary music. The various transcriptions of baroque music contributed by Marcel Mule and Sigurd Raschèr continue to be valuable additions to the repertoire, serving students’ pedagogical needs by providing appealing, accessible, and suitably challenging music. However, these transcriptions provide only a minimum …

A Survey Of Professional Operatic Entertainment In Little Rock, Arkansas: 1870-1900, Jenna M. Tucker Jan 2010

A Survey Of Professional Operatic Entertainment In Little Rock, Arkansas: 1870-1900, Jenna M. Tucker

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The late nineteenth century was a time of great political, economic, and social change in the state of Arkansas. The population of Little Rock, the state capital, nearly tripled in the last thirty years of the century. As more people settled in Little Rock, the demand for entertainment grew. Poor transportation was an initial obstacle; but as railroads gradually linked Little Rock to larger cities, traveling professional theatrical troupes began to include Little Rock on their itineraries. The purpose of this project is to document the history of professional operatic entertainment in Little Rock, Arkansas, from 1870—when the first professional …

A Performance Guide To Lori Laitman's Living In The Body, Kathryn Mary Drake Jan 2010

A Performance Guide To Lori Laitman's Living In The Body, Kathryn Mary Drake

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The purpose of this document is to provide a complete performer’s guide to American composer Lori Laitman’s Living in the Body, a song cycle consisting of six songs for soprano and saxophone set to the poetry of Joyce Sutphen. Living in the Body is one of very few cycles written for soprano and saxophone, and the combination is both unusual and interesting to investigate. The cycle explores letting go of the past and focusing on what will happen in the second half of life. The text is set expertly for soprano, bringing important words to the listener’s attention while keeping …

The Alfred Cortot Study Edition Of Chopin's Etudes & How The Alexander Technique Can Facilitate Progress Towards Performance Through His Suggested Exercises, Li-Fang Wu Jan 2010

The Alfred Cortot Study Edition Of Chopin's Etudes & How The Alexander Technique Can Facilitate Progress Towards Performance Through His Suggested Exercises, Li-Fang Wu

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The purpose of this research paper is to study how the Alexander Technique can be applied to the process of pianistic practicing, and specific technique issues. The sets of exercises I choose to focus on are from the Alfred Cortot study edition of Chopin’s Etudes, op. 10 and op. 25. The Alexander Technique is a method of releasing unnecessary muscular tension when performing every action, including motions in piano playing. Therefore, the preparatory exercises suggested by Alfred Cortot in his study editions can be more effectively executed by applying the Alexander Technique principles. This research paper is divided into four …

Joep Franssens' Harmony Of The Spheres: A Conductor's Analysis, David Andrew Hobson Jan 2010

Joep Franssens' Harmony Of The Spheres: A Conductor's Analysis, David Andrew Hobson

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Harmony of the Spheres is Dutch composer Joep Franssens’ most extensive choral work to date, exhibiting a substantial possibility to enter the international repertoire as a complete work; however, several of the movements can stand alone effectively. Presented in five symmetrically conceived movements, Franssens scores the piece for SSAATTBB chorus with only the addition of full string orchestra for Movement III. The composition seeks to explore profound connections between science, music, philosophy, religion, and human relationships, intertwining excerpts from Benedict de Spinoza’s magnum opus, Ethica, allusions to the ancient idea of the music of the spheres, and European minimalism. Franssens …

Inspiring Art And Science, Andrea R. Halpern Jan 2010

Inspiring Art And Science, Andrea R. Halpern

Other Faculty Research and Publications

I read Ralf Dahm's article "Finding Alzheimer's Disease" (March-April) with interest for two reasons. First, as a cognitive neuroscientist, I have studied the effect of early-stage Alzheimer's disease on memory and on the appreciation of music and art. In addition, I am a member of a community chorus here in Pennsylvania, the Susquehanna Valley Chorale, which recently commissioned and premiered a choral work on the topic of the ailment, called Alzheimer's Stories.

Homecoming At An Old Country Church, Lindsey M. Jacob Jan 2010

Homecoming At An Old Country Church, Lindsey M. Jacob

LSU Master's Theses

In numerous communities in the United States, church congregations gather once a year for a special homecoming service that includes food, fellowship, worship, and exceptional music. Homecomings at Cana Baptist Church, an old country church in rural Southern Illinois, hold some of my fondest childhood memories. The special musical performances were the highlight of the day’s festivities, and to this day remain an integral part of my musical identity.

This thesis exposes elements of southern gospel music, in particular bluegrass gospel. I explore stylistic tendencies of up-beat accents, prominent five-one bass progressions, and pitch bending. I also include several melodic …

A Case Study Of Music-Making In A Ghanaian Village: Applications For Elementary Music Teaching And Learning, Sara Rachel Mccall Jan 2010

A Case Study Of Music-Making In A Ghanaian Village: Applications For Elementary Music Teaching And Learning, Sara Rachel Mccall

LSU Master's Theses

This thesis explores music teaching and learning in Ghana, West Africa from a music education standpoint. Fieldwork was conducted at the Dagbe Cultural Institute, in Kopeyia, Ghana, West Africa to investigate methods of teaching and learning, the function of music within the culture, and formulate implementation strategies for elementary classrooms in the United States. Main themes on teaching and learning that emerged within the center focused on the use of strategies like drum syllables and analogy with Western students during classes. The use of learning in context through cultural outings also provided teaching opportunities for students. The overall function of …

For Orchestra, David Paul Cortello Jan 2010

For Orchestra, David Paul Cortello

LSU Master's Theses

“For Orchestra” is a four movement symphonic reflection on an unfinished life that ultimately finds redemption and a new beginning. Conflict and questioning are depicted through combinations of tonally ambiguous techniques. Debussian chord planing is combined with elements of twelve-tone technique; symmetrical scales offer hints of the familiar without sounding clear tone centers; rhythmic elements fight each other, resolve, and fight again, leaving questions still unanswered. There are moments of joy and triumph heard through tonal progressions, and a scherzo that is later darkened, first through an augmentation, and then a tritone harmonization. The third movement represents a slow spiral …

Why They Stay And Why The Go: A Study Of Retention And Attrition During The Transition From Middle To High School In The Large-Ensemble Instrumental Music Classroom, Kathryn Elizabeth Strickland Jan 2010

Why They Stay And Why The Go: A Study Of Retention And Attrition During The Transition From Middle To High School In The Large-Ensemble Instrumental Music Classroom, Kathryn Elizabeth Strickland

LSU Master's Theses

In this qualitative study, I investigated factors related to three eighth grade instrumental music students’ long-term commitment to school band. Each student represented a different category of intention: one was committed to being a band member long-term, one was not, and one was unsure. Framing the study were perceptions of character, personality, attitudes, and motivations in the context of pending decisions to continue or discontinue participation. More broadly, locus of control and characteristics from attribution theory were examined. Interviews, observations and questionnaire results revealed that locus and attribution style each bear on students’ inclinations to remain in band. All students, …

Challenges Of Technique And Interpretation In The Percussion Music Of Fredrik Andersson: A Performer’S Analysis, Kyle Manning Forsthoff Jan 2010

Challenges Of Technique And Interpretation In The Percussion Music Of Fredrik Andersson: A Performer’S Analysis, Kyle Manning Forsthoff

University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations

In the mid 1990s, Swedish composer Fredrik Andersson composed not everything which happens is in the newspaper (1993), the lonelyness of Santa Claus (1994), and imagine there was nothing (1996). All three pieces share a number of compositional and stylistic elements while emphasizing the capabilities of their respective instrumentations to create mysterious sonic worlds that are unique in the percussion idiom. By examining specific concerns of each piece in detail, an understanding of Andersson’s presentation of musical challenges will result. Acceptable solutions to such challenges will be examined and compared, based primarily on the author’s analysis and experience encompassing multiple …

An Anxiety Of Authenticity? Fusion Musics And Tunisian Identity, Rachel R. Colwell Jan 2010

An Anxiety Of Authenticity? Fusion Musics And Tunisian Identity, Rachel R. Colwell

Honors Papers

The analytical trope of "hybridity" has a troubled past in the social sciences. The careless adoption of scientific terminology without adaptation to cultural contexts can result in dangerous consequences for ethnomusicology. This paper challenges, and ultimately accepts, the efficacy of "hybridity" as a model for musical contact. Mindful of essentialization, post-colonial situations, and the perils of over-generalization, ethnomusicology holds sophisticated tools for examining local understandings of hybridity and the role that fusions play in shaping identities. Approaching musics from internal perspectives returns agency to musicians and listeners, liberating the local experience from the cloaking paradigm of "hybridity" as a strict …
