Larry Fine (October 5, 1902-January 24, 1975) The team's middleman, Larry Fine, was born Louis Feinberg on October 5, 1902, in the south side of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His father, Joseph Feinberg, and mother, Fanny Lieberman, owned a watch repair and jewelry shop. Larry was the first of four children; he had two brothers, Morris and a younger brother, Philip, who died prematurely, and a sister, Lyla, who became a school teacher. He wasn't even a year old when his parents and friends started treating him like a celebrity. He stole the show as an entertainer while still in diapers. One time, at just two years of age, his father propped him up on top of a jewelry showcase to show relatives how well he could dance. Larry managed to do a few dance steps before losing his balance and falling backward through the glass top of the display case. Luckily, he emerged unharmed. Morris Feinberg recalls that Larry had another close call in his youth. "Larry wasn't so fortunate the next time he got into trouble. It happened when Dad was testing metals to see which were gold. He used a powerful acid that when applied to base metals would turn them green or burn a hole in them. Gold, however was not affected by the acid. One day Dad had removed the stopper from the acid bottle, leaving it uncovered. A thirsty Larry stood unnoticed at his side. As he reached for the bottle of acid to raise it to his mouth and drink, Dad saw him out of the corner of his eye and smacked the bottle from his hand, splashing acid on his left arm and burning it badly."

W. A. Mozart Musicalische Gesellschaft Guide to Chamber Music , Melvin Berger provides a succinct summary of Haydn’s approach to quartet writing as found in the Apponyi Quartets. "The quartets have attention getting introductions, considered necessary for the larger and less sophisticated public audiences. The part writing is more brilliant and demanding than before, and the melodies are catchier and easier to recall. The tempos are exaggerated (faster fast movements, slower slow movements): many intimate details are replaced by grand gestures; and there is a general intensification of all aspects, particularly of the emotional content of the music. Evidence of the stronger feelings and greater expressivity in these compositions led scholar Karl Geiringer to comment "the dawn of Romanticism is noticeable in the String Quartets of Op.74". The G minor quartet gets its nickname (The Rider) The Rider as we are carried off by this four-voiced steed from minor to major.

SOUNDING THE NEW VIOLIN MALCOLM GOLDSTEIN oodiscs #47, Sounding The New Violin features 72 minutes of solo violin music composed for and in collaboration with the extraordinary composer/violinist Malcolm Goldstein. The recording includes works by John Cage, Pauline Oliveros, Ornette Coleman, Philip Corner, James Tenney and Malcolm Goldstein. The disc explores the wide range of nuance and 're-invention' of the violin that Goldstein has brought to the instrument. The new violin: as an extension of our voice/body, through gesture sounding the space. New sound-textures discovered as we listen to the bow breathing within the string, revealing a rich spectrum of tonal and noise qualities; the bow floating, pressing, sliding along and sharply articulating the string to vibrate (and all parts of the string offering new possibilities). So, also, with fingers articulating the string length; overtone/harmonic scale possibilities, as well as all nuances within the continuum of the pitch-tonal landscape...to create new melodies of SOUND expressive of he human gesture." The disc includes the following works: Eight Whiskus by John Cage (1985). "These pieces follow songs having the same title, which derives from a poem by Chris Mann (whistlin is did) which was used as a source to make eight mesostic "kus" (hai-kus). Their arrangement for violin solo was imagined by Malcolm Goldstein and I wrote them following suggestions he gave me." John Cage

The National Archives Exhibitions Black Presence Music Black Musicians 'Juba' at Vauxhall Gardens Document Transcript Joseph Emidy, Acclaimed Teacher and Performer Those who made a name for themselves in the world of professional music often came from a background of enslavement. One such musician was captured by the Portuguese from the Guinea coast and sold into slavery in Brazil. Around 1795, 'Josh Emede' (as he is called in the ship's records of the Indefatigable ) was forced by the British navy to play reels and jigs for the crew. Later known as Joseph Emidy, he settled in Falmouth, a cosmopolitan community at the time. A classical musician, he earned his living as a music teacher, giving lessons for a variety of instruments, including the piano, violin, cello and flute. Emidy's skills as a teacher and concert musician seem to have been in high demand, as requests for his services appeared in Falmouth and Truro newspapers. 'A Musical Club, Truro'

Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) Directed by Mervyn LeRoy. Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, Joan Blondell, Aline MacMahon, Ginger Rogers, Warren William (98 min.) plus: notes on 2 early musical shorts, Sissle and Blake's Snappy Songs (1923) and The Opry House Sex, money, power. What could be clearer than the opening shot of the movie, with chorus girls scantily clad in coins? What does a girl have to do to get a decent meal? And, how far can a good girl go before she becomes a bad girl? The Gold Diggers was a hit play in 1919, running a year and a half on Broadway. A silent version was made in 1923 and the first talking "Gold Diggers" movie was made in the crash year of 1929. The Vitaphone discs with the soundtrack exist, including the hit song, "Tiptoe Through the Tulips," but only the last reel of film. There are still modern gold diggers of course. But, they were more common when casual sex was less common. In one of her memoirs, Anita Loos, the author of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes , told of a conversation she had with a young friend during the so-called Sexual Revolution of the 1970s. "You mean, you could get a diamond bracelet just for doing that?" said a young woman who did what an earlier generation might have called, "giving it away."

93. An Irish Quartet By Padraic O Hara Italy s Paolo Tosti, Luigi Denza (who had presented John with his gold Medal Kreisler took violin in hand and later joined John for Angels Guard Thee http://www.mccormacksociety.co.uk/Mccormack/Studies/An Irish Quartet by Padraic

Mick, Joe, John, and Maggie Three Tenors and a Colleen or "An Irish Quartet" by Padraic O Hara Don't fight over the title or subtitles of this essay because, whatever you may call it, it is nothing more or less than an attempt to put one tenor, one Irish tenor, into his proper historical and musical context. "It was Mick who started all this!" "No, it wasn't." "It was, I tell you." That might sound like the start of a good old Irish argument, but is it? The "Mick" was Dublin's own Michael Kelly (1762-1826) and "all this" was the fame for music which Ireland enjoyed, and continues to enjoy, internationally. "All this" did not start with "Mick", as a perusal of Irish history will show. The Gaiety Theatre in Dublin had, since the 1870's, become a great house for opera and there in 1884 The Carl Rosa Company presented (as they had done for 9 years) their operas. One, Annigo Boïto's "Mefistofele", starred two outstanding Irish singers of the time: tenor Barton McGuckin, later to take to the conductor's podium, and bass William Ledwidge (more famous as "Wilhelm Ludwig") later to have his own touring concert company (Note 6). These singers and this opera were to feature prominently in the career of another singer who was born that very same year. But the more intimate side of his art cannot be overlooked and the choice of repertoire in his concerts certainly provided subsequent Irish tenors with some "ready-made" selections. At a concert in my home town of Ballina in 1911 Joe sang, apart from operatic and other selections, Tom Moore's "Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms" (as Michael O Kelly probably had done), "Eleanore" (by Coleridge-Taylor) and Chaminade's delicate "The Little Silver Ring". In other concerts (as well as including them in the "ballad-operas") he sang "My Lagan Love", "I'll Sing Thee Songs of Araby", "The Derry Air" (to the words "Would God I Were The Tender Apple-blossom"), Moore's "Oft In The Stilly Night", "The Wearin' Of The Green", "The Ould Plaid Shawl", "The West's Awake" and at the opening of station 2RN - "Turn Ye To Me".

Program Notes: By Steven Ledbetter The duo combination of violin and piano has produced a splendid repertory of works in which composers have played with the challenging yet inviting contrasts between a bowed instrument capable producing mostly single-note melodies of almost endless lyricism, but also capable of a universe of coloristic devices and flexibility of pitch, with a tuned percussion instrument that can produce full harmony and almost symphonic sonority, yet is fixed in pitch and limited in the manner of tone production. Strange bedfellows, so different are they in character and mode of sound production—yet it is the very contrariety that seems to lure composers, whether they treat the result in terms of song (Schubert and Clara Schumann), dance (Stravinsky), or a combination of traditional forms, popular music, and a search for novelty (Ravel, Maric).
