The Festival, the Glory, and the Bagpiper
December 7, 2013For Every Clarinetist and teacher
November 8, 2013The following is a letter from a clarinet student from 45 years ago or more, when I was teaching at Plymouth State College of the University of New Hampshire, my first college job. It was a fine learning experience, filled with joy and learning, things we never finish doing. My hopes are for all of you to receive such information from long long ago. Yes, we were young, eager, playing sharp, and always looking for a step up. Stay well.
"Hello, after 45 years! This is Bruce Bean, now Connery, who was a senior at Plymouth State when you were teaching there. I have remembered you and your dear friend Dr. Wolf, who I learned passed away several years ago, all my life. I was so impressed with Dr. Wolf when you and he performed at PSC and we had the opportunity to meet him personally in a program he presented to the music students. I must again thank you for giving me an opportunity to begin my music career in Littleton, NH, when you wrote a great recommendation. Although Littleton did not work out for me in the long run I taught successfully in Plattsburgh, NY for 12 years before leaving teaching to work in municipal administration in CT, where I still reside in the Town of Monroe. After retiring from that position I have returned to teaching and have 45 students for private lessons, including 3 clarinet players! My most noted student from Plattsburgh was Richard (Ricky) Sherman who now is Chairman of the Flute Dept at Michigan State. He is really cool and reminds me of you. I shall follow your blog from now on and certainly would love to meet you for dinner, concert, whatever, if you are in the NYC area (I live only 40 minutes north of the city). So glad you are still sharing your musical gift with others."
Ligature,contraption for reeds, also defines the word noose
November 2, 2013Actually, after playing for a lifetime and collecting many of these , the whole experience is a bit funny, a little extraneous, and, beside the point. I have several sets of crooked plastic drawers. They were never really straight, but always ideal for putting stuff in. If I open a drawer, which is always opned crookedly, I pull it out and find the following: several small screwdrivers, reeds made of every material I can think of. several unopened boxes of shaped wooden pieces that go on the mouthpiece of a clarinet and make a noise if you hold it or screw it on a mouthpiece. There are probably 20 or 30 of these things, mouthpieces as well. I used to try these mouthpieces with the pieces of wood screwed on. Like many of you, I was totally obsessed with the noise that the mouthpiece and the shaped sticks made. Every now and again, I was pleased with the noise that the thing made, would screw it on to the mouthpiece with a piece of metal or sometimes a piece of leather or some artificial material. When I was young I used to use a piece of shaped metal with two screws which I tightened almost into submission, I thought to myself, the tighter the better, a good seal. I was a dumb clarinet player kid, trying different things, making a lot of strange noises each and every day for a long time. These metal things are called ligatures. I have owned hundreds of them, maybe more. I had a very thin one, metal, kind of decorated, very light in weight, which I liked rather well. Perhaps it was the decoration of the metal, perhaps its weight . It had a name embossed into it. I think the name was Bay. I remember playing with a guy named Bay in the American Wind Ensemble. that group was conducted by a fellow who had married into a family that made soups. I think they were named Heinz. . He married the daughter of Heinz and a mediocre trumpet player became a conductor of band music. We used to play on a barge in Pittsburgh, Pa. Actually, it was a very good group of players, all kids like me who played hight and fast and impressed the trumpet player husband of Mrs Heinz. So, this group of university musicians numbered 56, the numbers of varieties of Heinz soups made at that time, Or maybe someone told me that story over a beer, ….. maybe a soup. Who knows? The soup had too much salt and probably killed hundreds , if not more, of clarinet players who had screwed their ligatures tightly enough to finally break through the metal, which was very thin and not strong enough to withstand the pressure of those little screws. All my reeds had marks made by the reed having been screwed onto the mouth[iece so tightly as to make a really good seal., I thought, idiot that I was.When I was finished with a reed, I would remove the ligature and the reed would be affixed to the mouthpiece as if welded there. I always got pleasure knocking the reed off its seal, and letting it fall to the floor, gone and forgotten. The longer I played a reed, the longer it took me to find another. I learned about that too, after repeating the whole procedure maybe a thousand times.. For a while I collected clarinets too, but never had as many clarinets as I had reeds, or ligatures, or mouthpieces. Once, I had a recital to play in Milwaukee at Alverno college, where I taught on a part time basis. It was on a sunday afternoon. I actually went through three hundred reeds, trying to find one that I thought would sound ok for the concert, I never found one and played on a piece of junk. and everyone offered me congratulations, and a friend took me out to a nice restaurant for a steak . After a long time, I began to understand how to pick reeds that might play through a concert, and provide me with enough security to play well enough. I never ever changed a reed during a recital, never moved it. Didn't believe in changing reeds while playing. I had studied for a while with Fernand Gillet, who had been the principal oboe of the Boston Symphony. He would tell me , us, that one should never change to a new reed before a performance, Better use one that you had played , If the new reed was in any way strange, you had to cope with a new problem. I stayed with Mr, Gillets advice. He had told us that he was collecting two pensions: one from the Boston Symphony, the other from the Lamoureux Orchestra in Paris, as he had played principal in both orchestras. Gillet also told us that he never ever made a reed in his life. He used to get them from a guy in France, with whom he would trade an old suit for a bunch of reeds the guy made for him. Nobody ever did anything like that. Lots of people didn't like Gillets sound but he could play anything that was put in front of him. Perfectly He knew what to practice and how, and he taught us to learn in his manner. And it worked , always . Fernand Gillet was a great oboe player and an even greater teacher . At the New England Conservatory during that time, the teacher for clarinet was Mazzeo. If you didn't get along with Rosie, you were soon judged lacking in sanity, and you either left or got another teacher. Fernand Gillet ws also a wonderful clarinet teacher. He could look at you playing a passage and say, hold this finger longer, or accent this particular note. It always worked and he was an oboist. Lots of clarinetists used Gillets oboe method book.
stay well, and never play a concert on a brand new reed.
Starving Music, by cutting Music Education
September 29, 2013Starving Music by Cutting Music Education.
For the past several years symphony Orchestras in North American have been disappearing or diminishing in size or in some unusual cases, actually going bankrupt, which is my understanding of the Philadelphia Orchestra. To me, this is the strangest thing, for I grew up listening to this orchestra's many recordings, getting to know each of the woodwinds by name. We all had our opinions, but knew only the hearsay spoken by young students to one another. We could identify their sounds easily, their style, knew their instruments, and could probably pick out who was playing what part in a particular recorded work. But, I have never been to Philadelphia, never heard the orchestra in person,except once when they came to play in Symphony Hall in Boston. That was particularly memorable because the second clarinetist(Serpentini) developed food poisoning. The work for the evening was Ein Heldenleben. by Richard Strauss. A dear friend, the late Phil Viscuglia was called at the last minute to play the solo second part and sight read it flawlessly.
To learn that the Philadelphia Orchestra has filed for bankruptcy is unimaginable. But, it is only the mere tip of the iceberg. The diminution of orchestras, salaries, and season seems epidemic throughout North America. Musicians discuss this endlessly, usually accompanied by a wringing of hands, and a discussion as to what is happening to create tis collapsing of more than an entire industry, an actual end of classical music. It is very true, actually happening, and has been a case of self mutilation, for, are we creating our own ending?
There are many responses to the question. Due to factors inside and out of our industry, we have stopped feeding classical music. In the US and in Canada, so-called Classical Music has been an acquired discipline.
As a young high school student, we had chamber music concerts several times a year during classes. Yes, we called it Gas Chamber Music, but, at the very least we were given time in the auditorium to actually see and hear music. There was usually an explanation by one of the musicians, and then, we would hear the music. Personally, I remember a great event: The head of Music in the town of Brookline, Mass, was named Luther Burbank, (believe it or not.)(The other Luther Burbank, was a famous botanist).
Back to Mr. Burbank,. head of music in Brookline. He came in to the auditorium one day. There was long black and shiny piano on the stage. I had never seen a piano that large. He sat down and played the most beautiful thng I had ever heard. He played Clair de Lune,by Claude Debussy. It was my first time, and I still remember getting dizzy as he played. In retrospect, it seemed like a beautiful drug, and I just closed my eyes and was swept away.In our school, our city was constantly being fed classical music on a regular basis. Not just those afflicted with its love, but those halls were filled with young students. It was well known that this kind of music was not liked by all, but , it was considered as being something very good. An enrichment.
To begin with, the above is no longer the case. And, because of increased costs, music has been the first to go, replaced by any number of other less costly "enrichments". Fewer students hearing good music means fewer parents attending concerts. Diminishing attendance means less money coming in and less of an incentive for the yearly donations that help keep the symphonic industry alive and well.As costs have risen, budgets are cut as well, and because of less interest in music, it became ideal to cut music.And it was and is.
Adding to fewer students attending concerts,one of the most important factors in a consideration of the diminishing orchestra, is the competition between recorded and live music. The recording industry has improved exponentially. In the beginning there was one recording of each Beethoven symphony and many other works of Classical Music. Then came stereophonic sound, then the long playing record and then tape and the arrival of digital recording, These superb recordings and the technology that produced them, meant for a severe and increasing competition between live and recorded music. Why buy an expensive concert ticket to hear a program of Richard Strauss and Stravinsky when you can purchase a beautiful recording of the same music. And the recording themselves sound so much better on that wonderful setup for which you have paid a fortune. And it sounds better in your own living room than it does in the Hall. The reason for this is that the recording emphasizes the major parts of the work and that clarinet solo sound so much purer and present in your riving room. No driving and no parking either. In the days past, the only way you could get a season ticket for the Boston Symphony was , to inherit one/the concerts were completely sold out.
During a professional recording of an orchestra, a great deal of mixing , both electronically and physically is achieved through the manipulation of the various electronic controls and the actual separation of the players. In a typical Boston Symphony recording, the audience seats are removed and the players are widely separated in pairs of like instruments and in sections. Each of the various small groupings has one or several microphones. This is precisely the reason that the clarinet solo on a particular recording is so much more vibrant and even present than when heard in the hall itself. One may ask oneself, "why is the clarinet , (or whatever instrument ", so much more present on the recording than in the concert hall? It is the recording and the various methods as mentioned above. This is competition with oneself. The performance competes with the recorded session.
If one is presented with a choice or a recoding or a performance , this choice diminishes the audience, certainly proven by the disappointing statistics in the numbers of those buying concert tickets/ Of course, the cutting of music classes in the K through 12 grades is pure starvation for Classical or any kind of Art Music. Continuing in the saga of the practice of performance, one must consider the practice of sampling, in which musicians record their instrumental sounds for a fee. These samples are then juxtaposed by synthesizer and any sound produced by any instrument can be reproduced easily. It is virtually the same as the competition presented by recordings, but even more pronounced. If I permit recorded samples of my playing, that sound can be reproduced rather easily on a keyboard of a "synth" as they are called.
We are subjected to examples of this competition with ourselves on a daily , almost continuous basis. Sometimes it is difficult to ascertain what one is listening to, a player or a synthesizer.
The Concertmaster of a major symphony actually could not understand how a player could play pizzicato as fast as he heard it on a recording, until he was told that it was , in fact , a" synth".
I played the Bavicchi Clarinet Concerto with a regional symphony Orchestra near Chicago. Included with the Concerto was the Overture to Donna Diana, first on the program. Just about everyone in he orchestra called that work the "parking Lot Overture". Certainly that Overture which we all recognize as the theme music for the very popular "Sargent Preston". by Emil Nickolaus Von Reznicek, composed in 1894. It is somehow hurtful to think of that piece, or the show or VON Reznicek as the "Parking Lot Overture". But, it is commentary on this world, Classical Music and the state of the art.
Does one need any further proof as to why concert audiences, symphony orchestras are smaller and smaller and are disappearing? It is above. It is here. Can it be fixed? It has been most of my life, the lives of countless others who play, and (formerly) millions of avid anxious excited listeners. It is and has never been a case of what is good and what is less good in the composition. If our children cannot hear and be taught music, the cutting of Music Education is the source of its ending.
Jack Maheu, passed away August 27,2013
August 30, 2013For all clarinetists and lovers of Dixieland: I received this today from Barbara Z Banks, former sister-in-law of Jack Maheu .
Jack Maheu, whose career as a top jazz clarinetist spanned over 50 years and included many appearances in upstate New York, died on August 27, 2013 in Ithaca. N. Y. at 83. He had suffered a severe stroke years before and was a resident at a nursing home in Ithaca.
Knowledgeable critics considered Maheu one of the finest jazz clarinetists. In 1951, he became a founding member, with fellow student musicians from the Syracuse marching band, of the eventually well-known Dixieland group, the Salt City Five.(later Six). They won the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scouts on tv. and appeared on Godfrey and Friends and his radio programs. As a result, the band was later booked for a long term engagement at Child's Paramount in Times Square where it had the opportunity to share the stage as the house band with some of the legends in jazz on Sunday afternoons.
Born in Troy, N.Y., he spent his formative years in Plattsburgh, NY. After graduation from high school, he studied commercial art for two years at the Pratt Art Institute in Brooklyn, NY, then, on the advice of a musician friend from Syracuse, studied music for two years, majoring in clarinet at Syracuse University.
` During the early '50s, two albums were recorded for Jubilee Records. In 1957, Maheu left the band and joined the Dukes of Dixieland where he recorded and helped arrange eight of their albums. He left the Dukes in 1959 to form his own band at the Preview Lounge in Chicago and played opposite the George Brunis band. He then toured with Muggsy Spanier for about a year and a half and recorded with Bob Scobey, Jimmy McPartland, Art Hodes, George Brunis, Pee Wee Russell, Vic Dickenson, George Wettling, and Bud Freeman. In 1961, he re-formed the Salt City Six as co-leader with Will Alger. Wild Bill Davison joined this group for a one-year tour in 1962.
Beginning in 1979, Maheu joined the house band at Eddie Condon's Jazz club in New York, and recorded Condon's Hot Lunch album with Pee Wee Erwin in 1980. After the club closed in 1985, he stayed in New York to work and record with Grosz, Dick Wellstood, Mark Shane, and Howard Alden and played at the Red Blazer.
Maheu moved to Marco Island, Florida in 1988 to help form the Paradise Jazz Band, with which he toured and recorded. In 1989, they played an impromptu jam session for the newly liberated East Germans coming through the demolished Berlin Wall. In 1990, Maheu moved to New Orleans and, using his architectural knowledge from Pratt, designed his own house. He toured for six months with Al Hirt and played engagements at the Fairmont Hotel plus various Bourbon Street clubs and Mississippi riverboats. He formed the Fire In The Pet Shop Callithumpian Jazz Band, which won First Place three years in a row in the New Orleans French Quarter Jazz Festival Battle of the Bands.
In New Orleans, Maheu became one of the most sought-after musicians in town. At Fritzel's Jazz Pub on Bourbon St., he was known as "The General" by many of the City's best players who sat in and younger clarinet players who listened and learned. Eddie Edwards, head of the Louis Armstrong Foundation told the Times-Picayune (4/23/94), "Maheu is the best clarinet player in New Orleans. He's a real pro. When Jack talks, other musicians listen. His presence commands the respect of other musicians."
Jack remained active in jazz in New Orleans until 2006 when a stroke forced his retirement. During his career, Maheu was featured on over a dozen national TV shows and over twenty record albums. His last recording was My Inspiration with the Jack Maheu Quartet (2004) on the Jazzology label.
Richard Sudhalter, noted jazz critic and Grammy winner for record liner notes, described Maheu as, "the master of a totally expansive, melodic way or playing that acknowledges its debt to admired figures of the past – Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Pee Wee Russell – but which speaks forcefully in its own accents and eloquent means of expression."
As for playing the clarinet, Maheu told The Mississippi Rag (05/95), " It is so difficult to play it well. You have to put a lot of years into it. A lot of guys can pick up a saxophone, a guitar…and in a couple of weeks they can play a job. Clarinet players have become the orphans in the music business – except for New Orleans.
"It's the only town I've been in where the clarinet players get first calls for the good jobs. In the same article, Maheu said, "To me, there are only two kinds of jazz – good and bad, whether it's a modern group or a Dixieland group. In Dixieland especially, the ensemble sound is absolutely one of the greatest things in music. Leonard Bernstein was quoted in print saying, "the most exciting sound in music is a good Dixieland band at full tilt"
Irving Berlin's 1922 'Some Sunny Day" was Maheu's favorite song. "I like the words," he once said: "Some sunny day, with a smile on my face, I'll go back to that place far away.."
He is survived by four children; Joy Maheu, Lisa Hawthorne, Michael Maheu and John Maheu; two sisters: Patti Mooney and Merilee Trudel;
three brothers: Robert, Bill and Jim Hargraves and three grandchildren:
Jenessa and Devon Maheu and Olivia Hawthorne. He had been previously married to Sharon Gravelet of New Orleans. A private ceremony is planned.
Thank you, Ms. Banks. We are all sorry for your and our loss
Schumann "Fairy Tales" in concert
August 26, 2013(With T. Kooimann Etude 2 thumb rest)
Several months ago, I had posted news about this thumb rest. My reason was simple: severe pain in my right thumb after playing for even one hour. I had forgotten how painful this could be. It simply makes you cringe as you hold and play the clarinet, which ,of course, disturbs virtually everything.
I had simply put off the thumb rest, mostly because I found that lack of practice resulted in no pain. No practice, no pain, right?
Wrong. Initially, practicing went fine, but as the hours passed, the pain increased reminding me of my original article, and ensuing discomfort.
Practicing a bit may have helped, but since "between engagements" ,( retired.) I did not.
So, when my friends,extraordinary musicans,Sara an Donald Pistolesi came for our rehearsals and concert, the pain returned, and was even more severe. (Sara, Violin and Viola, Donald, Cello and Piano, retaining their virtuosity and youthful enthusiasm)
Here is the very good news. I attached the thumb rest myself, with no assistance, and with only one screw, and it held perfectly . It was a very easy change to make. It must be removed when putting the clainet in the case, but it simply slides on and off, easily.
I had read several reviews of this thumb rest, and was taken by one which said the thing just snapped off after ten minutes. This is not the case, and only one of the supplied screws was used.
The pupose of this thumb rest is to shift the weight of the clarinet from the first joint of the thumb to the joint closest to the palm, which completely eliminates the pain because this part of thumb can sustain so much more weight. The thumb rest itself swivels to adjust to many positions. The big news is that it is a very simple installation, and I used only one of the three screws provided.
I paid about 25 dollars several years ago, and the thing just laid in the drawer. So, with such a simple procedure, taking less than a few minutes, I was playng without any pain in my thumb. Yes, I should have installed the thing several weeks in advance, bu ,frankly, I was reluctant. I needn't have been, nor should any reader.
Here is what I did and used: I removed the thumb rest, which needed a jewelers loup and a thin ,strong screwdriver. (eyes get weaker at 80 years) Indispensible was a small tool called the "Leatherman Squirt", a tiny many- bladed thing which can be caried anywhere and has an actual miniature pliers, which fold out of the tool. This was used to unscreew the original thumb rest, and the short screwdriver, also in the tool, has enough strength to loosen and tighten screws. Amazingly useful, and small enough to keep on your key chain. I received mine as a gift from my nephew, Randy.
Here is my report: It is an easy installation, and I used it immediately after installing it. No practice, not a note. It worked, providing painless stability. Of course, I was fortunate.
The concert, which included works by Bruch , as well as the Schumann was successful. The FAiry Tales are his last published work, which was allowed to be published by his wife, Clara, and Johannes Brahms. A wonderfully strange work with a gorgeous lullaby, complete with contemporary sounding dissonances. All of Schumanns works for clarinet are either beautiful, playable , unusual, and effective for the audience. Because Schumann had not played the piano for 30 years or so, the piano writing, especially in the last movement is very awkward , and takes an extra rehearasal. Please ,do not rush. Slower is faster, and you know what I mean.
If you have discomfort in your right hand, here is a way to fix it, without any operation, save for your own installation of this thumb rest. Initially, I had this rather exquisite pain in my left thumb, but it was easily fixed with a simple day surgery at the Montreal General. I prefer the new thumb rest. Incidentally, they make a metal one, with many adjustments possible,(200$) but the less expensive one works just fine. If it breaks, I will get another.
Good luck, stay well, and keep practicing, and or playing.
Chamber music is always the most enjoyable thing one can do.
Baubles ,Bangles, Beads, and Borodin
August 13, 2013One is relentlessly bombarded with gadgets of all kinds for our clarinets. The profusion includes all the usual and some of the the more unusual.In the long list of clarinet problems. What is most neglected , is the music itself. As one reads about the many different types of ligatures, mouthpieces, barrels, thumbrests, extra keys, adjustments of all kinds, this song came into my head "Baubles,Bangles, and Beads". This cute song was made popular from the musical Kismet. And with the revisiting of Kismet came a virtual fountain of information, much more interesting than any list of wanted gadgets. Yes, having tried and played and used most of the gadgets, I know full well the feeling of wanting. Wanting to solve a problem through the use of something attached to the clarinet, whether is be mouthpiece, reeds, ligature, and even teacher.
But, with overwhelming importance, despite the interest in gadgetry, the stuff that we do on our clarinet became the most important study, the most fullfillig, beautiful and actually, never ending.
As I delved into the song, which actually had become quite popular both as the song from the musical, a popular tune, and a great vehicle for jazz, played endlessly for its interesting chord changes and variety.
All of the music of the show, Kismet is taken from the music of Alexander Borodin, a composer who lived during part of the 19yh century and was really not a composer. He was much more celebrated as a chemist, and was interested in promoting women composers and musicians and women chemists. His life is most interesting and perhaps can only be surpassed by the music he composed during his short life.
Alexander Porfiryevich Borodin was a Russian Romantic composer, doctor and chemist. He was a member of the group of composers called The Five , who were dedicated to producing a specifically Russian kind of art music.He is best known for his symphonies, his two string quartets, On the Steppes of Central Asia and his opera Prince Igor. Music from Prince Igor and his string quartets was later adapted for the musical Kismet.
He was a notable advocate of women's rights and a proponent of education in Russia and was a founder of the School of Medicine for Women in St. Petersburg.
I thought that surely, here was a man for all seasons, literally a Renaissence Man from the 19th century, and while not just a composer, wrote some of the most beautiful and memorable melodies of his time. And, our time.
"Prince Igor", his most notable piece , is an opera , known to all clarinetists who have played in any orchestra, band ore even chamber ensemble. It contains the Polyvitsian Dances, famous for its many clarinet tunes, cadenzas, solo passages. I remember not even being able to pronounce the title, much less spell it. My teacher could rattle all of the clarinet parts off as if a practiced warmup study. Perhaps, it was. If you have never had the Bonade Book of Orchestra Studies for the Clarinet, then, you have seen it in any other book of clarinet studies.
Borodin was born in Saint Petersburg, the illegitimate son of a Georgian noble, Luka Gedevanishvili, and a 24-year-old Russian woman, Evdokia Konstantinovna Antonova. The nobleman had him registered as the son of one of his serfs, Porfiry Borodin. As a boy he received a good education, including piano lessons. In 1850 he entered the Medical–Surgical Academy in St Petersburg, which was later home to Ivan Pavlov, and pursued a career in chemistry. On graduation he spent a year as surgeon in a military hospital, followed by three years of advanced scientific study in western Europe.
I wondered, did Borodin know Pavlov?
In 1862 Borodin returned to St Petersburg to take up a professorial chair in chemistry at the Imperial Medical-Surgical Academy[and spent the remainder of his scientific career in research, lecturing and overseeing the education of others. Eventually, he managed to establish medical courses for women. (1872).Women?
He began taking lessons in composition from Mily Balakirev in 1862. He married Ekaterina Protopopova, a pianist, in 1863, and had at least one daughter, named Gania. Music remained a secondary vocation for Borodin outside his main career as a chemist and physician. He suffered poor health, having overcome cholera and several minor heart attacks. He died suddenly during a ball at the Academy, and was interred in Tikhvin Cemetery at the Alexander Nevsky Monastery, in Saint Petersburg.
Why mention Pavlov? The concept for which Pavlov is famous is the "conditioned reflex" (or in his own words the conditional reflex: he developed jointly with his assistant Ivan Filippovitch Tolochinov in 1901. He had come to learn this concept of conditioned reflex when examining the rates of salivations among dogs. Pavlov had learned then when a bell was rung in subsequent time with food being presented to the dog in consecutive sequences, the dog will initially salivate when the food is presented. (so do we)The dog will later come to associate the ringing of the bell with the presentation of the food and salivate upon the ringing of the bell. Tolochinov, whose own term for the phenomenon had been "reflex at a distance", communicated the results at the Congress of Natural Sciences in Helsinki in 1903.Later the same year Pavlov more fully explained the findings, at the 14th International Medical Congress in Madrid, where he read a paper titled The Experimental Psychology and Psychopathology of Animals.
As Pavlov's work became known in the West, particularly through the writings of John B. Watson, the idea of "conditioning" as an automatic form of learning became a key concept in the developing specialism of comparative psychology, and the general approach to psychology that underlay it, behaviorism. Pavlov's work with classical conditioning was of huge influence to how humans perceive themselves, their behavior and learning processes and his studies of classical conditioning continue to be central to modern behavior therapy. The British philosopher Bertrand Russell was an enthusiastic advocate of the importance of Pavlov's work for philosophy of mind.
Pavlov's research on conditional reflexes greatly influenced not only science, but also popular culture. Pavlovian conditioning was a major theme in Aldous Huxley's dystopian novel, Brave New World,
It is popularly believed that Pavlov always signaled the occurrence of food by ringing a bell. However, his writings record the use of a wide variety of stimuli, including electric shocks, whistles, metronomes, tuning forks, and a range of visual stimuli, in addition to the ring of a bell. Catania cast doubt on whether Pavlov ever actually used a bell in his famous experiments. Littman tentatively attributed the popular imagery to Pavlov's contemporaries Vladimir Mikhailovich Bekhterev and John B. Watson, until Thomas found several references that unambiguously stated Pavlov did, indeed, use a bell.
Well, does one imagine that Borodin may have known Pavlov? That is inconsequential, but what is of great consequence is the Pavlovian conditioned reflex. Why were our classes always begun and ended with the ringing of a bell? Why do we answer the bell of the telephone when it rings. Are these reactions due initially to this Russian genius? Certainly the many ways we have of practicing and learning the clarinet have to do with conditional reflex, and behavioural modication, or how we learn to know and improve in our musical understanding.
But, back to Borodin, and Bauubles, Bangles and Beads from the second movement of his second string quartet made and used in the musical "Kismet", and made forever famous.
And do we know or remember the very famous prize winning tune."Stranger in Paradise," which actually won a special award as this song. This too is from the String Quartet of Alexander Borodin, who was not only a composer of a few very popular works, but a noted chemist, doctor and was pivotal in starting a medical school for women. In 19th century Russia?
Or do we actually think that gadgets will replace and take the place of practice?
Stay well, and keep practicing. Start with The Polyvitsien Dances. It is a nice solo.

By MATTHEW DEMICCO
For The Express-Times
The North Warren football team knows Kinnelon, which invades Blairstown Township Friday night for a Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference game, all too well.
"I think it'll be one of our best efforts this year," North Warren coach Matt Parzero said. "We're very familiar with Kinnelon having played them twice last year."
The second of those 2012 matchups came in the NJSIAA North 1 Group 2 semifinals and won by Kinnelon 35-33.
"I don't think too much of a pep talk is really needed," Parzero said.
North Warren (5-2) will rely on its potent rushing attack. The Patriots, led by senior Scott Palmer and junior Luke Robertson, are averaging 262 yards on the ground per game. The duo has combined for 12 rushing touchdowns.
Robertson, who has amassed 854 yards rushing, believes the Patriots can continue their success on the ground against Kinnelon.
"Our offensive line has been able to get free and block at the second level and has opened up the backfield," Robertson said. "I'm confident they're going to open up holes."
"They're able to react to in-game situations much better," Parzero said of his line. "They're making adjustments on the field between plays rather than waiting to adjust at halftime."
Seniors Kevin Kise and Nick Meyer, junior Rich Jones and sophomore John Donovan are learning from senior three-year starter Greg Galante, the team's lone returnee up front from last season.
Kinnelon (3-4) has lost two of its last three games. The Colts have struggled to score in those losses, but Parzero still believes Kinnelon's offense is dangerous.
"They present a lot of problems," Parzero said. "They run and pass the ball equally. We have to honor both."
"I'm confident in our secondary this year," Robertson said. "We have a lot of skilled players back there. I'm confident our linebackers and defensive line can stop the run too."
Robertson is one of those linebackers. He leads the team with 76 tackles, 27 more than any other player on the team. The Patriots are yielding just over 12 points a game and are 5-0 when allowing 12 or less points.
"We know what they're going to do," Parzero said. "It's just a matter of us executing."

Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are.

Pasadena Wedding Venue
301 North Orange Grove Boulevard
Pasadena, California 91103-3540
Contact: Special Events Coordinator
Phone: 626/449-3470 x13
Request more information
At the turn of the century, Pasadena was a center of gracious living for many of the nation's industrial magnates. Their desire for imposing homes and openness to new ideas drew talent from across the country, ushering in an era of architectural excellence. Today, with over 600 registered historic landmarks, the city is renowned for its exceptional examples of American architecture, especially the Craftsman style, epitomized by brothers Greene & Greene. Although their famous Gamble House, now operated as a museum, has no facilities for events, couples who are Arts & Crafts aficionados are in luck, because right next door the 1907 Greene and Greene Cole House is the centerpiece of the Neighborhood Church of Pasadena's campus…a surprisingly beautiful wedding location.
The sprawling property, with three main buildings and a schoolhouse, is nestled among towering pine trees that create a sense of "country in the city." The first thing you see when you approach from the front is the historic Cole House itself. Set back off Orange Grove Boulevard on Westmoreland Place, this Craftsman treasure, originally built for a flour mill baron, houses the welcoming center and administrative offices of the church, and integrates all the best elements of its era—massive river rock support pillars, an inviting porte-cochère, and copious use of peg-and-groove redwood. Bridal couples love to pose for photos under the period ironwork light fixture on the huge front porch or in front of the impressive river stone chimney, but due to concern for the preservation of the building, ceremonies and receptions are permitted inside on a very limited basis. The peaceful campus offers a panoply of visual delights in several other choice spots.
The Main Sanctuary is a stunning place to get married. A tall Craftsman-style building to the left of Cole House, it's blessed with cathedral ceilings, post-and-beam rafters, massive chandeliers and gleaming organ pipes flanking the altar. After saying "I do," serve cocktails in the Lobby. Graced with carved dark wood and stained glass, it features a wall of windows that overlooks the large back lawn and gardens abutting the quiet Arroyo Seco. Or, if you'd like, you can reverse the order! Exchange vows beneath the back lawn's majestic redwoods, which gently arch towards each other to form a natural altar. Then have cocktails on an adjoining lawn, and set up dinner in the sanctuary. Yes, in the sanctuary. But before making up your mind, explore your other options…like tying the knot on the back veranda of Cole House with your guests seated on a grassy area ringed by banks of flowers…or in the intimate Chapel, where you're framed by two stained-glass pastoral scenes while the adjacent gardens create a living backdrop. Church staff give you an incredible amount of flexibility in designing your own personal wedding, and they will also officiate for interfaith marriages and partnership unions.
One of the tenets of the Arts and Crafts movement was to weave indoor artistry with the natural beauty of the outdoors. The Neighborhood Church of Pasadena does that seamlessly in a historically charming and memorable setting.
CEREMONY CAPACITY: The Main Sanctuary holds 275 seated guests, the back lawn area 350.
EVENT/RECEPTION CAPACITY: The Main Sanctuary holds 150 seated at tables or 250 standing guests.
MEETING CAPACITY: Spaces accommodate up to 275 guests seated theater-style.

I'm pretty sure I won't visit this page often, so people, who want to use my art for their t-shirt designs, roleplay characters and et cetera, et cetera, you have my permission! I believe you all to be honest and to have respect for other people's work, so, don't be shy! It's all for you!
And yeah. I use my Tumblr page more often, many pieces of my recent art diarrhea are submitted there) The address can be found on my profile page here.
Just don't forget that I love you guys!

6 reasons why Britney Jean deserves to flop
Britney Jean, the eight studio album from Britney Spears, is set to sell up to 120,000 copies in its opening week. While that's enough for a number one debut, it's a big drop from the 276,000 that Femme Fatale sold in its first week in 2011 and pales in comparison to recent debut numbers by Miley Cyrus (270,000), Katy Perry (275,000) or even Lady Gaga (258,000).
But I'm not sure surprised Britney Jean is set to flop. In fact, if there's justice in the world, Britney Jean deserves not to sell at all. Here are six reasons why:
- The lazy "Work Bitch" music video
"Work Bitch" is a pretty fierce song, but the video just falls short of epicness. Lazy choreography, uninspired concept, and Britney's lack of spark help make "Work Bitch" one of the most disappointing music videos of 2013.

(Reuters) - Republican Governor John Kasich Wednesday signed into law a measure that prohibits abortion coverage under the insurance exchange Ohio must create to comply with the U.S. healthcare law championed by President Barack Obama.
The law bans Ohio citizens from being able to purchase insurance through the exchange that includes abortion coverage, even if they pay for it with their own money, said Kellie Copeland, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Ohio, who criticized the bill.
"It is appalling that Governor Kasich signed this bill, which clearly violates the Ohio Constitution, into law," said Copeland.
Mike Gonidakis, executive director of Ohio Right to Life, said that while everyone can agree people should have access to healthcare, "we reject the notion that abortion is healthcare because the only measure of 'success' of an abortion procedure is the death of an innocent child."
The American Civil Liberties Union has previously said it would sue the state if the bill became law. (Writing by Mary Wisniewski; Additional reporting by Kim Palmer, Editing by Greg McCune and Xavier Briand) (Reporting By Will Dunham)

No reception. No room to put toiletries beside sink. Could do with more seating in bar area.
The ambience; quiet and peaceful and reasonably comfortable
Only one staff person on duty in the mornings; bed not particularly comfortable
The entire ambience was excellent.
great food
A little more trouble to get to the beach.
Parking and proximity to beach
The English expat owners were quite brash and inappropriate which we were not expecting on our Spanish holiday. They stayed up drinking outside our window until 2.30am one night - the window with a sea view that we had paid premium for. The breakfast was disappointing - cereal and a small bowl of croissants. I'm not sure what the owners think they are offering at 110euros/night
Rustic rooms and the food.
Nothing I didn't like about the hotel.
Helpful staff. Friendly, peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Clean, cool rooms. Good food. Beautiful views.
Not much wrong here. Perhaps design favoured over practicality in some areas, e.g. shower room, too few surfaces to place washbags, etc. Food was overpriced - but location was magical.
Homely atmosphere and decor, very good food, friendly owners with a fabulous cookery library
Nothing really, shower spray wet the floor
Friendly staff and owners Excellent restaurant
Noise from road In our particular room
Lovely character,friendly owners, comfortable rooms.
The dinner and the service
we were a little disappointed in the breakfast.
Wonderful family run hotel in the middle of a totally unspoilt region of Spain. Great location for travel to Granada and other regions. The staff at the hotel were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to make their guests feel comfortable and relaxed. Great cuisine. Very charming decor with a traditional touch. A very spanish location with easy access to major tourist sites.
The welcome and service throughout our stay was exellent - enthusiastic and informative in a very relaxed manner
Very pretty location; excellent food both for breakfast and in the main restaurant; pleasant and helpful staff.
Parking is possible but the hotel is on a steep hillside (which is one it's attractions) so maneuvering is a little tricky.
Charming décor very much in keeping with the area, very friendly owners and staff
Noise from the road and lack of communal space
Friendly staff. Excellent restaurant. Charming hotel.
Interior details, view from room and restaurant
If on foot, some 200m of way to beach is not pedestrian friendly and disturbes a feeling of cozy atmosphere of the hotel.
We were upgraded to a better room which was very nice and very clean. The restaurant is very good with a nice menu and good wines. The staff are friendly and welcoming.
A little traffic noise as overlooking N340 and dustbin lorries overnight disturbed sleep but we are used to living in a very quiet location so perhaps we notice it more than most.
Car parking area
boutique style rooms amazing food beautiful views lovely people fab decor throughout great location
Rooms are clean, good water pressure, plenty of hot water, air conditioning.
The very precarious "free parking", located along the steep roadside or the overfill parking at a hostel, then walk to hotel from a dangerous highway roadside.
I liked the ambiance of the dining area.
I didn't like the beach.
A lovely hotel, the food is without question the best we have eaten in Spain. Mandy and Jed who run La Tartana are warm, hospitable and helpful. Will definitely go again
Beautiful views and the best restaurant I have been to for a long time
Our room was next to the terrace and it was a little noisy for a baby trying to sleep
