John Tyrrell (actor)
John Tyrrell (December 7, 1900 – September 20, 1949) was an American film actor. He appeared in over 250 films between 1935 and 1947.
Career
Tyrrell is best known for his prolific work with Columbia Pictures in the Three Stooges short subjects. Like many actors in the Stooge comedies, Tyrrell was a salaried contract player. The Columbia stock company was called upon to play incidental roles in practically everything the studio produced: important films, low-budget "B" pictures, short subjects, and serials. (Some of these players graduated to stardom, like Lloyd Bridges, Bruce Bennett, Adele Mara, and Ann Doran.) John Tyrrell worked steadily at Columbia from 1938 to 1945. Occasionally, only Tyrrell's voice would be used, as a radio newsman, public-address announcer, or police-call dispatcher. Tyrrell and fellow stock player Eddie Laughton often appeared together in Columbia movies (frequently as mobsters waiting in a getaway car). Tyrrell's biggest role was probably in the 1939 serial Mandrake the Magician, in which he played a masked crime lord's right-hand man.

Anna Blackmur, Principal 2nd Violin of the ROH orchestra, shared her personal experience of playing Dvořák’s music highlighting the challenges his seemingly easy music presents to players.
Robert Simon is an American librarian and musicologist specializing in Czech music. He is the author of Bohuslav Martinů: A Research and Information Guide and recently edited Martinů's one-act opera Ariane as part of the Bohuslav Martinů Complete Edition. Other editorial projects include the Wind Quintet of Pavel Haas and Antonín Dvořák's Slavonic Rhapsodies, Op. 45. Robert currently serves as Music and Arts Librarian at the College of the Holy Cross (Worcester, MA), and previously worked at the University of Notre Dame (South Bend, IN), where he launched their new Music Library in 2018.
Jonáš Hájek is a graduate of both the Prague Conservatory and the Institute of Musicology, Faculty of Arts, at the Charles University in Prague. He also spent a year at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Leipzig. Since 2007, he has been an editor (since 2017 the chief editor) of the Prague branch of the Bärenreiter publishing house, which specialises in Czech music. As an editor, he has prepared the Symphony "Asrael" op. 27 by Josef Suk ("Best Edition" prize from the Association of German Music Publishers 2019), Dvořák's Romance for Violin and Piano Op. 11 and Dvořák'sNocturne for String Orchestra Op. 40. He is the publishing supervisor of the new edition of Rusalka and the editor of its libretto.
Nigel Simeone is a writer and musician with special interests in Czech music and twentieth-century opera – both inspired by seeing Janáček’s Cunning Little Vixen during a school visit to Germany in 1971. He broadcasts regularly for BBC Radio 3 (Record Review, Opera on 3, BBC Proms) and has published extensively, including twelve books, two of them on Janáček: Janáček’s Works (1997, with John Tyrrell and Alena Němcová) and The Janáček Compendium (2019). Nigel has given lectures on aspects of Czech music for the London Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia, Wigmore Hall, BBC Proms and Welsh National Opera. He has written programme notes for the Royal Opera House, Scottish Opera, the BBC Proms, the LSO and the Salzburg Festival, and CD booklet notes for Deutsche Grammophon, Decca, Hyperion, Chandos and others.
Anna Blackmur studied as a Royal College of Music scholar under Maciej Rakowski, completing her BMus with first class honours (2010) and her Masters in Performance with Distinction (2012). In 2015, Anna was appointed Section Principal Second Violin with the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, having previously appeared as Assistant Concertmaster with the orchestra. She has also appeared as principal with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Orchestra of Welsh National Opera, and principal or coprincipal with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields (with whom she has toured extensively, directed by Joshua Bell, Sir Neville Marriner and Murray Perahia), and Scottish Chamber Orchestra. Anna is in constant demand as a recording artist, playing on multiple film and television sessions. She is also in high demand as a coach/mentor, and as a chamber musician, playing with, amongst others, the Covent Garden Soloists and Aronowitz Ensemble, and attending numerous international festivals such as the BBC Proms, and the Saronic and Aims Festivals as an artist in residence.
In collaboration with The Dvořák Society and the Bärenreiter Music Publishing House.

SUMMARY
=======
This is a list of musical compositions or pieces of music that have unusual time signatures. "Unusual" is here defined to be any time signature other than simple time signatures with top numerals of 2, 3, or 4 and bottom numerals of 2, 4, or 8, and compound time signatures with top numerals of 6, 9, or 12 and bottom numerals 4, 8, or 16.The conventions of musical notation typically allow for more than one written representation of a particular piece. The chosen time signature largely depends upon musical context, personal taste of the composer or transcriber, and the graphic layout on the written page. Frequently, published editions were written in a specific time si ...

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
This is a list of musical compositions or pieces of music that have unusual time signatures. "Unusual" is here defined to be any time signature other than simple time signatures with top numerals of 2, 3, or 4 and bottom numerals of 2, 4, or 8, and compound time signatures with top numerals of 6, 9, or 12 and bottom numerals 4, 8, or 16.The conventions of musical notation typically allow for more than one written representation of a particular piece. The chosen time signature largely depends upon musical context, personal taste of the composer or transcriber, and the graphic layout on the written page. Frequently, published editions were written in a specific time si ...

- Socrates
SUMMARY
=======
The musical system of ancient Greece evolved over a period of more than 500 years from simple scales of tetrachords, or divisions of the perfect fourth, to The Perfect Immutable System, encompassing a span of fifteen pitch keys (see tonoi below) (Chalmers 1993, chapt. 6, p. 99)
Any discussion of ancient Greek music, theoretical, philosophical or aesthetic, is fraught with two problems: there are few examples of written music, and there are many, sometimes fragmentary, theoretical and philosophical accounts. This article provides an overview that includes examples of different kinds of classification while also trying to show the broader form evolving from the simple tetrachord to the system as a whole.

DAVID FARRAR,
Opera Stage Director
In David Farrar's career as an opera stage director, he has broken many barriers. He is not only the first African-American to direct the New York City Opera, the San Francisco Opera, Royal Opera, Covent Garden, Opera del Teatro Municipal, Santiago, Chile, and the Opera Theatre at Oberlin Conservatory. He was also the first African-American to stage Gershwin's complete Porgy and Bess in the United States. Honored by the National Opera Association for his historic role as African-American opera stage director and received the Distinguished Director Award.
His many opera productions have received acclaim on three continents. As Founding Stage Director and Director of Productions of the Virginia Opera Association. he was responsible for twelve years of innovation and vitality, during which the company experienced a period of tremendous growth. In 1978, under Dr. Farrar's direction, the Virginia Opera premiered Thea Musgrave's Mary, Queen of Scots, which he subsequently took to the San Francisco Opera and the New York City Opera. Indeed Dr. Farrar has the distinction of being New York City Opera's first African-American director. In 1982 he directed the European premiere of Musgrave's A Christmas Carol for the Royal Opera, Covent Garden, in London, where he was again the first African-American director. That production was taped for television and international distribution by GRENADA TV. In the following years, Dr. Darrar directed 32 operas in more than 60 productions on three continents. As comfortable with contemporary opera as with established classics, Dr. Farrar directed productions in English, French, German and Italian. Too numerous to mention, these run the alphabetical gamut from Menotti's Amahl and the Night Visitors to Mascagni's Zanetto. Recently, he was honored with the Antioch College Alumni Board 2013 Walter Anderson Award.
A native New Yorker, Dr. Farrar received his doctorate from the University of Southern California in 1972. He taught music history, theory, keyboard harmony, and opera on the faculties of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Lehmann College of the City University of New York, the University of Washington, Seattle, and the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. In addition to a distinguished career as a musicologist and educator, he is also an accomplished bassoonist who has performed both as a soloist and as a member of the Santa Barbara Symphony Orchestra, the Symphony of the New World, and the Santa Fe Opera Orchestra, among others.
At present he is writing two books - one on the complex art of stage directing, and another based on his experiences as the first African-American opera stage director to achieve international status, with anecdotes from his debuts at New York City Opera, Royal Opera, Covent Garden, and Opera Municipal de Santiago, Chile, and others. In addition to coaching operatic arias, scenes, and lieder, he is now creating a pictorial autobiography with photos and video recordings of his life and career as opera stage director.

SUMMARY
=======
Romanticism (also known as the Romantic era) was an artistic, literary, musical and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century, and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1850. Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on emotion and individualism as well as glorification of all the past and nature, preferring the medieval rather than the classical. It was partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, the aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment, and the scientific rationalization of nature—all components of modernity. It was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major impact on historiography, education, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. It had a significant and complex effect on politics, with romantic thinkers influencing liberalism, radicalism, conservatism and nationalism.The movement emphasized intense emotion as an authentic source of aesthetic experience, placing new emphasis on such emotions as apprehension, horror and terror, and awe—especially that experienced in confronting the new aesthetic categories of the sublimity and beauty of nature. It elevated folk art and ancient custom to something noble, but also spontaneity as a desirable characteristic (as in the musical impromptu). In contrast to the Rationalism and Classicism of the Enlightenment, Romanticism revived medievalism and elements of art and narrative perceived as authentically medieval in an attempt to escape population growth, early urban sprawl, and industrialism.
Although the movement was rooted in the German Sturm und Drang movement, which preferred intuition and emotion to the rationalism of the Enlightenment, the events and ideologies of the French Revolution were also proximate factors. Romanticism assigned a high value to the achievements of "heroic" individualists and artists, whose examples, it maintained, would raise the quality of society. It also promoted the individual imagination as a critical authority allowed of freedom from classical notions of form in art. There was a strong recourse to historical and natural inevitability, a Zeitgeist, in the representation of its ideas. In the second half of the 19th century, Realism was offered as a polar opposite to Romanticism. The decline of Romanticism during this time was associated with multiple processes, including social and political changes and the spread of nationalism.

To celebrate a new edition of Antonín Dvořák’s beloved opera Rusalka and a new staging by the Royal Opera House, the editors Robert Simon and Jonáš Hájek discussed Dvořák‘s lyrical fairy tale, and their work on the score and Jaroslav Kvapil’s libretto with musicologist Nigel Simeone. Anna Blackmur, Principal 2nd Violin of the ROH orchestra, shared her personal experience of playing Dvořák’s music highlighting the challenges his seemingly easy music presents to players.
Robert Simon is an American librarian and musicologist specializing in Czech music. He is the author of Bohuslav Martinů: A Research and Information Guide and recently edited Martinů's one-act opera Ariane as part of the Bohuslav Martinů Complete Edition. Other editorial projects include the Wind Quintet of Pavel Haas and Antonín Dvořák's Slavonic Rhapsodies, Op. 45. Robert currently serves as Music and Arts Librarian at the College of the Holy Cross (Worcester, MA), and previously worked at the University of Notre Dame (South Bend, IN), where he launched their new Music Library in 2018.
Jonáš Hájek is a graduate of both the Prague Conservatory and the Institute of Musicology, Faculty of Arts, at the Charles University in Prague. He also spent a year at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Leipzig. Since 2007, he has been an editor (since 2017 the chief editor) of the Prague branch of the Bärenreiter publishing house, which specialises in Czech music. As an editor, he has prepared the Symphony "Asrael" op. 27 by Josef Suk ("Best Edition" prize from the Association of German Music Publishers 2019), Dvořák's Romance for Violin and Piano Op. 11 and Dvořák'sNocturne for String Orchestra Op. 40. He is the publishing supervisor of the new edition of Rusalka and the editor of its libretto.
Nigel Simeone is a writer and musician with special interests in Czech music and twentieth-century opera – both inspired by seeing Janáček’s Cunning Little Vixen during a school visit to Germany in 1971. He broadcasts regularly for BBC Radio 3 (Record Review, Opera on 3, BBC Proms) and has published extensively, including twelve books, two of them on Janáček: Janáček’s Works (1997, with John Tyrrell and Alena Němcová) and The Janáček Compendium (2019). Nigel has given lectures on aspects of Czech music for the London Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia, Wigmore Hall, BBC Proms and Welsh National Opera. He has written programme notes for the Royal Opera House, Scottish Opera, the BBC Proms, the LSO and the Salzburg Festival, and CD booklet notes for Deutsche Grammophon, Decca, Hyperion, Chandos and others.
Anna Blackmur studied as a Royal College of Music scholar under Maciej Rakowski, completing her BMus with first class honours (2010) and her Masters in Performance with Distinction (2012). In 2015, Anna was appointed Section Principal Second Violin with the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, having previously appeared as Assistant Concertmaster with the orchestra. She has also appeared as principal with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Orchestra of Welsh National Opera, and principal or coprincipal with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields (with whom she has toured extensively, directed by Joshua Bell, Sir Neville Marriner and Murray Perahia), and Scottish Chamber Orchestra. Anna is in constant demand as a recording artist, playing on multiple film and television sessions. She is also in high demand as a coach/mentor, and as a chamber musician, playing with, amongst others, the Covent Garden Soloists and Aronowitz Ensemble, and attending numerous international festivals such as the BBC Proms, and the Saronic and Aims Festivals as an artist in residence.
In collaboration with The Dvořák Society and the Bärenreiter Music Publishing House.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

This is a list of musical compositions or pieces of music that have unusual time signatures. "Unusual" is here defined to be any time signature other than simple time signatures with top numerals of 2, 3, or 4 and bottom numerals of 2, 4, or 8, and compound time signatures with top numerals of 6, 9, or 12 and bottom numerals 4, 8, or 16.The conventions of musical notation typically allow for more than one written representation of a particular piece. The chosen time signature largely depends upon musical context, personal taste of the composer or transcriber, and the graphic layout on the written page. Frequently, published editions were written in a specific time si ...

SUMMARY
=======
The musical system of ancient Greece evolved over a period of more than 500 years from simple scales of tetrachords, or divisions of the perfect fourth, to The Perfect Immutable System, encompassing a span of fifteen pitch keys (see tonoi below) (Chalmers 1993, chapt. 6, p. 99)
Any discussion of ancient Greek music, theoretical, philosophical or aesthetic, is fraught with two problems: there are few examples of written music, and there are many, sometimes fragmentary, theoretical and philosophical accounts. This article provides an overview that includes examples of different kinds of classification while also trying to show the broader form evolving from the simple tetrachord to the system as a whole.

DAVID FARRAR,
Opera Stage Director
In David Farrar's career as an opera stage director, he has broken many barriers. He is not only the first African-American to direct the New York City Opera, the San Francisco Opera, Royal Opera, Covent Garden, Opera del Teatro Municipal, Santiago, Chile, and the Opera Theatre at Oberlin Conservatory. He was also the first African-American to stage Gershwin's complete Porgy and Bess in the United States. Honored by the National Opera Association for his historic role as African-American opera stage director and received the Distinguished Director Award.
His many opera productions have received acclaim on three continents. As Founding Stage Director and Director of Productions of the Virginia Opera Association. he was responsible for twelve years of innovation and vitality, during which the company experienced a period of tremendous growth. In 1978, under Dr. Farrar's direction, the Virginia Opera premiered Thea Musgrave's Mary, Queen of Scots, which he subsequently took to the San Francisco Opera and the New York City Opera. Indeed Dr. Farrar has the distinction of being New York City Opera's first African-American director. In 1982 he directed the European premiere of Musgrave's A Christmas Carol for the Royal Opera, Covent Garden, in London, where he was again the first African-American director. That production was taped for television and international distribution by GRENADA TV. In the following years, Dr. Darrar directed 32 operas in more than 60 productions on three continents. As comfortable with contemporary opera as with established classics, Dr. Farrar directed productions in English, French, German and Italian. Too numerous to mention, these run the alphabetical gamut from Menotti's Amahl and the Night Visitors to Mascagni's Zanetto. Recently, he was honored with the Antioch College Alumni Board 2013 Walter Anderson Award.
A native New Yorker, Dr. Farrar received his doctorate from the University of Southern California in 1972. He taught music history, theory, keyboard harmony, and opera on the faculties of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Lehmann College of the City University of New York, the University of Washington, Seattle, and the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. In addition to a distinguished career as a musicologist and educator, he is also an accomplished bassoonist who has performed both as a soloist and as a member of the Santa Barbara Symphony Orchestra, the Symphony of the New World, and the Santa Fe Opera Orchestra, among others.
At present he is writing two books - one on the complex art of stage directing, and another based on his experiences as the first African-American opera stage director to achieve international status, with anecdotes from his debuts at New York City Opera, Royal Opera, Covent Garden, and Opera Municipal de Santiago, Chile, and others. In addition to coaching operatic arias, scenes, and lieder, he is now creating a pictorial autobiography with photos and video recordings of his life and career as opera stage director.

SUMMARY
=======
Romanticism (also known as the Romantic era) was an artistic, literary, musical and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century, and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1850. Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on emotion and individualism as well as glorification of all the past and nature, preferring the medieval rather than the classical. It was partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, the aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment, and the scientific rationalization of nature—all components of modernity. It was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major impact on historiography, education, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. It had a significant and complex effect on politics, with romantic thinkers influencing liberalism, radicalism, conservatism and nationalism.The movement emphasized intense emotion as an authentic source of aesthetic experience, placing new emphasis on such emotions as apprehension, horror and terror, and awe—especially that experienced in confronting the new aesthetic categories of the sublimity and beauty of nature. It elevated folk art and ancient custom to something noble, but also spontaneity as a desirable characteristic (as in the musical impromptu). In contrast to the Rationalism and Classicism of the Enlightenment, Romanticism revived medievalism and elements of art and narrative perceived as authentically medieval in an attempt to escape population growth, early urban sprawl, and industrialism.
Although the movement was rooted in the German Sturm und Drang movement, which preferred intuition and emotion to the rationalism of the Enlightenment, the events and ideologies of the French Revolution were also proximate factors. Romanticism assigned a high value to the achievements of "heroic" individualists and artists, whose examples, it maintained, would raise the quality of society. It also promoted the individual imagination as a critical authority allowed of freedom from classical notions of form in art. There was a strong recourse to historical and natural inevitability, a Zeitgeist, in the representation of its ideas. In the second half of the 19th century, Realism was offered as a polar opposite to Romanticism. The decline of Romanticism during this time was associated with multiple processes, including social and political changes and the spread of nationalism.
