By the beginning of 1845, Schumann’s health gradually began to improve, and he embarked on an intense study of counterpoint, immersing himself in the music of J.S.

How to construct chords - Piano Clues: Free tips and lessons for playing piano, organ and electronic keyboard. You don’t need a “1000 Chords Dictionary” to be able to read and play chords. You can learn how to form chords on your own, because chords are built using simple formulas.

A chord is three or more notes played at the same time. It’s as simple as that. Of course, the trick is to know which three notes… Obviously, not all combinations of notes sound good. Particular combinations each have their own name: there are “major” chords, “minor” chords, “dominant-7″ chords, “diminished chords”, and so on. Of each chord type, there are 12 possible chords: one for each note. The note that names the chord is called the root note. What’s the difference between all these chord types? Chord formulas To form a chord you simply apply a formula to the major scale named by the root tone.

So to build any type of chord, you need to know: the major scale for the root tone of that chord, andthe formula for that chord. I am assuming that you already can play the 12 major scales.

"Arirang" (Korean: "아리랑") is a Korean folk song, often considered the unofficial national anthem of Korea.[1] In December 2012, the song was inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity programme by UNESCO.[2][3] This was followed by an announcement by the Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea of a five-year plan to promote and preserve the song.

The plan is aim to support "Arirang" festivals by regional organizations, as well as building an archive for the song, exhibitions, fund research; of which it has allocated ₩33.6 billion.[4] Etymology[edit] Many versions of the song open by describing the travails the subject of the song encounters while crossing a mountain pass. "Arirang" is one name for the pass and hence the title of the song. Some versions of "Arirang" mention Mungyeong Saejae, which is the main mountain pass on the ancient Joseon Dynasty road between Seoul and southeastern Gyeongsang Province.

Even to the untrained ear, it is a magical sound. Choir boys, and more recently choir girls, have been enchanting congregations for centuries with their distinctive voices. Some say it is their pure tone, others an angelic shimmer, and then there are those who just cannot put their finger on it at all. At Ripon Cathedral in Yorkshire, only the very best singers are chosen to form part of the choir. Edmund Aldhouse, assistant director of music at the cathedral, says: "When we do voice trials and auditions for the choir, one thing that we talk about is that sparkle factor: did the boy or the girl shine. "And it is just something you know, maybe not something you can define. " But that has not stopped researchers from trying to find out. Professor Howard uses special software to monitor choristers as they sing.

OPERA

Diary of a 'One-Man Grateful Dead' Book Review Notes of a Pianistby Louis Moreau Gottschalk When he died in 1869, Louis Moreau Gottschalk was the most famous musician in the Western Hemisphere. New Orleans's answer to Europe's great virtuosi - the Chopin of the Creoles, as he was called - Gottschalk enjoyed the kind of popularity that today we associate with rock stars. In the smallest towns of the American West, on isolated Caribbean plantations, in war-torn Latin American capitals, listeners turned out by the hundreds and thousands to hear him. Girls passed him notes before concerts, begging him to play their favorite pieces. He gave command performances for President Lincoln and the emperor of Brazil. A century and a half later, Gottschalk's name has faded to a historical footnote.

Indeed, Gottschalk himself was a prime example of American hybridity. Armed with the cultural imprimatur of the Old World, Gottschalk returned to his native country in 1853, hoping to repeat the success of Jenny Lind's famous American tour. Top 10 Composers You Don’t Know. The Arts It is very possible that you may know one or two of these composers, but unless you are a student of music or a great classical music fanatic, the chances are you don’t, though you have probably heard some of their music in films. These are not film composers normally – they are classical composers in their own right. They are great pioneers in classical music from the 20th century. As you can see, the Americans dominate the field a little (that may just be my personal preference though.) In no particular order: 1. Here we have the Schnittke Concerto Gross for 2 Violins – movement 2: Toccata. 2. There is no doubt that Ives is American’s most American composer. 3. The video is not his, but the music is. 4.

Crumb received a lot of exposure when some of his music (Night of the Electric Insects from Black Angels) was featured in the Exorcist. 5. Gubaidulina’s music is marked by the use of unusual instrumental combinations. 6. This is the Xenakis Synaphai pour piano et 86 musiciens.
