▁The ▁r haps ody ▁was ▁performed ▁by ▁Wh item an ' s ▁band , ▁with ▁an ▁added ▁section ▁of ▁string ▁players , ▁and ▁George ▁G ers h win ▁on ▁piano . ▁G ers h win ▁decided ▁to ▁keep ▁his ▁options ▁open ▁as ▁to ▁when ▁Wh item an ▁would ▁bring ▁in ▁the ▁or chestra ▁and ▁he ▁did ▁not ▁write ▁down ▁one ▁of ▁the ▁pages ▁for ▁solo ▁piano , ▁with ▁only ▁the ▁words ▁" Wait ▁for ▁nod " ▁sc raw led ▁by ▁Gro fé ▁on ▁the ▁band ▁score . ▁G ers h win ▁impro vised ▁some ▁of ▁what ▁he ▁was ▁playing , ▁and ▁he ▁did ▁not ▁write ▁out ▁the ▁piano ▁part ▁until ▁after ▁the ▁performance , ▁so ▁it ▁is ▁unknown ▁exactly ▁how ▁the ▁original ▁r haps ody ▁sounded . ▁ ▁The ▁opening ▁clar inet ▁gl iss ando ▁came ▁into ▁being ▁during ▁rehe ars al ▁when , ▁" ... ▁as ▁a ▁joke ▁on ▁G ers h win , ▁[ R oss ] ▁G orm an ▁( Wh item an ' s ▁virt u oso ▁clar in ett ist ) ▁played ▁the ▁opening ▁measure ▁with ▁a ▁notice able ▁gl iss ando , ▁adding ▁what ▁he ▁considered ▁a ▁hum orous ▁touch ▁to ▁the ▁passage . ▁React ing ▁favour ably ▁to ▁G orm an ' s ▁wh im sy , ▁G ers h win ▁asked ▁him ▁to ▁perform ▁the ▁opening ▁measure ▁that ▁way ▁at ▁the ▁concert ▁and ▁to ▁add ▁as ▁much ▁of ▁a ▁' w ail ' ▁as ▁possible ." ▁ ▁The ▁first ▁British ▁performance ▁of ▁R haps ody

▁piece ▁in ▁ 2 0 0 6 , ▁winning ▁a ▁Latin ▁Gram my ▁award . ▁ ▁Analysis ▁ ▁Paul ▁Wh item an ▁asked ▁G ers h win ▁to ▁write ▁a ▁" j azz ▁concer to ", ▁which ▁became ▁the ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ; ▁like ▁a ▁concer to , ▁the ▁piece ▁is ▁written ▁for ▁solo ▁piano ▁with ▁or chestra : ▁a ▁r haps ody ▁diff ers ▁from ▁a ▁concer to ▁in ▁that ▁it ▁features ▁one ▁extended ▁movement ▁instead ▁of ▁separate ▁movements . ▁R haps od ies ▁often ▁incorporate ▁pass ages ▁of ▁an ▁impro vis atory ▁nature ▁( although ▁written ▁out ▁in ▁a ▁score ), ▁and ▁are ▁ir regular ▁in ▁form , ▁with ▁height ened ▁contrast s ▁and ▁emotional ▁ex uber ance ; ▁G ers h win ' s ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ▁is ▁typical ▁in ▁that ▁it ▁certainly ▁has ▁large ▁contrast s ▁in ▁musical ▁texture , ▁style , ▁and ▁color . ▁The ▁music ▁ranges ▁from ▁intens ely ▁rhythm ic ▁piano ▁sol os ▁to ▁slow , ▁broad , ▁and ▁rich ly ▁or chestr ated ▁sections . ▁ ▁The ▁opening ▁of ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ▁is ▁written ▁as ▁a ▁clar inet ▁tr ill ▁followed ▁by ▁a ▁leg ato , ▁ 1 7 ▁notes ▁in ▁a ▁di at onic ▁scale . ▁During ▁a ▁rehe ars al , ▁Wh item an ' s ▁virt u oso ▁clar inet ist , ▁Ross ▁G orm an , ▁rendered ▁the ▁upper ▁portion ▁of ▁the ▁scale ▁as ▁a ▁capt iv ating ▁( and ▁fully ▁t rom bone -

like ) ▁gl iss ando : ▁G ers h win ▁heard ▁it ▁and ▁insisted ▁that ▁it ▁be ▁repeated ▁in ▁the ▁performance . ▁An ▁American ▁Heritage ▁column ist ▁called ▁it ▁the ▁" f amous ▁opening ▁clar inet ▁gl iss ando ... ▁that ▁has ▁become ▁as ▁familiar ▁as ▁the ▁start ▁of ▁Be eth oven ' s ▁Fifth ". ▁The ▁effect ▁is ▁produced ▁primarily ▁using ▁the ▁tongue ▁and ▁throat ▁muscles ▁to ▁change ▁the ▁reson ance ▁of ▁the ▁oral ▁c avity , ▁thus ▁controlling ▁the ▁continuously ▁rising ▁pitch . ▁Many ▁players ▁also ▁gradually ▁open ▁the ▁left - hand ▁tone - h oles ▁on ▁the ▁clar inet ▁during ▁the ▁passage ▁from ▁the ▁last ▁concert ▁F ▁( or ▁earlier ▁if ▁possible , ▁thus ▁employ ing ▁the ▁right ▁hand ▁as ▁well ) ▁to ▁the ▁top ▁concert ▁B ▁as ▁well . ▁This ▁effect ▁has ▁now ▁become ▁standard ▁performance ▁practice ▁for ▁the ▁work . ▁ ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ▁displays ▁both ▁rhythm ic ▁invention ▁and ▁melod ic ▁inspiration , ▁and ▁demonstr ates ▁G ers h win ' s ▁ability ▁to ▁write ▁a ▁piece ▁with ▁large - scale ▁harm onic ▁and ▁melod ic ▁structure . ▁The ▁piece ▁is ▁characterized ▁by ▁strong ▁motiv ic ▁inter related ness . ▁Much ▁of ▁the ▁motiv ic ▁material ▁is ▁introduced ▁in ▁the ▁first ▁ 1 4 ▁measures . ▁David ▁Sch iff ▁ident ifies ▁five ▁major ▁themes ▁plus ▁a ▁sixth ▁" tag ". ▁Of ▁these , ▁two ▁appear ▁in ▁the ▁first ▁ 1 4 ▁measures , ▁and ▁the ▁tag ▁shows ▁up ▁in ▁measure ▁ 1 9 .
|
▁Two ▁of ▁the ▁remaining ▁three ▁themes ▁are ▁rhythm ically ▁related ▁to ▁the ▁very ▁first ▁theme ▁in ▁measure ▁ 2 , ▁which ▁is ▁sometimes ▁called ▁the ▁Gl iss ando ▁theme ▁( after ▁the ▁opening ▁gl iss ando ▁in ▁the ▁clar inet ▁solo ) ▁or ▁the ▁R it orn ello ▁theme . ▁The ▁remaining ▁theme ▁is ▁the ▁Train ▁theme , ▁which ▁is ▁the ▁first ▁to ▁appear ▁( at ▁rehe ars al ▁ 9 ) ▁after ▁the ▁opening ▁material . ▁All ▁of ▁the ▁themes ▁rely ▁on ▁the ▁blues ▁scale , ▁which ▁includes ▁lowered ▁sevent hs ▁and ▁a ▁mixture ▁of ▁major ▁and ▁minor ▁third s . ▁Each ▁theme ▁appears ▁both ▁in ▁or chestr ated ▁form ▁and ▁as ▁a ▁piano ▁solo . ▁There ▁are ▁considerable ▁differences ▁in ▁the ▁style ▁of ▁presentation ▁of ▁each ▁theme . ▁ ▁The ▁harm onic ▁structure ▁of ▁the ▁r haps ody ▁is ▁more ▁difficult ▁to ▁analyze . ▁The ▁piece ▁begins ▁and ▁ends ▁in ▁B ▁major , ▁but ▁it ▁mod ulates ▁towards ▁the ▁sub - domin ant ▁direction ▁very ▁early ▁on , ▁returning ▁to ▁B ▁major ▁at ▁the ▁end , ▁rather ▁abruptly . ▁The ▁opening ▁mod ulates ▁" down ward ", ▁as ▁it ▁were , ▁through ▁the ▁keys ▁B , ▁E , ▁A , ▁D , ▁G , ▁B , ▁E , ▁and ▁finally ▁to ▁A ▁major . ▁Mod ulation ▁through ▁the ▁circle ▁of ▁fifth s ▁in ▁the ▁reverse ▁direction ▁in verts ▁classical ▁ton al ▁relationships , ▁but ▁does ▁not ▁abandon ▁them . ▁The ▁entire ▁middle ▁section ▁res ides ▁primarily ▁in ▁C ▁major , ▁with
|
▁for ays ▁into ▁G ▁major ▁( the ▁dominant ▁relation ). ▁Mod ulations ▁occur ▁freely ▁and ▁easily , ▁though ▁not ▁always ▁with ▁harm onic ▁direction . ▁G ers h win ▁frequently ▁uses ▁a ▁recurs ive ▁harm onic ▁progress ion ▁of ▁minor ▁third s ▁to ▁give ▁the ▁illusion ▁of ▁motion ▁when ▁in ▁fact ▁a ▁passage ▁does ▁not ▁change ▁key ▁from ▁beginning ▁to ▁end . ▁Mod ulation ▁by ▁third s ▁was ▁a ▁common ▁element ▁of ▁T in ▁Pan ▁Al ley ▁music . ▁ ▁The ▁influences ▁of ▁jazz ▁and ▁other ▁contemporary ▁styles ▁are ▁certainly ▁present ▁in ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue . ▁R ag time ▁r hy th ms ▁are ▁abund ant , ▁as ▁is ▁the ▁Cub an ▁" cl ave " ▁rhythm , ▁which ▁dou bles ▁as ▁a ▁dance ▁rhythm ▁in ▁the ▁Charl eston ▁jazz ▁dance . ▁ ▁G ers h win ' s ▁own ▁intentions ▁were ▁to ▁correct ▁the ▁belief ▁that ▁jazz ▁had ▁to ▁be ▁played ▁strictly ▁in ▁time ▁so ▁that ▁one ▁could ▁dance ▁to ▁it . ▁The ▁r haps ody ' s ▁tem pos ▁vary ▁widely , ▁and ▁there ▁is ▁an ▁almost ▁extreme ▁use ▁of ▁rub ato ▁in ▁many ▁places ▁throughout . ▁The ▁cle arest ▁influence ▁of ▁jazz ▁is ▁the ▁use ▁of ▁blue ▁notes , ▁and ▁the ▁exploration ▁of ▁their ▁half - step ▁relationship ▁plays ▁a ▁key ▁role ▁in ▁the ▁r haps ody . ▁The ▁use ▁of ▁so - called ▁" vern acular " ▁instruments , ▁such ▁as ▁accord ion , ▁ban jo , ▁and ▁sa x oph ones ▁in ▁the ▁or chestra ,
|
▁contribute ▁to ▁its ▁jazz ▁or ▁popular ▁style , ▁and ▁the ▁latter ▁two ▁of ▁these ▁instruments ▁have ▁remained ▁part ▁of ▁Gro fé ' s ▁" standard " ▁or chestra ▁scoring . ▁G ers h win ▁incorporated ▁several ▁different ▁piano ▁styles ▁into ▁the ▁work . ▁He ▁utilized ▁the ▁techniques ▁of ▁stride ▁piano , ▁novel ty ▁piano , ▁comic ▁piano , ▁and ▁the ▁song - plug ger ▁piano ▁style . ▁Str ide ▁piano ' s ▁rhythm ic ▁and ▁impro vis ational ▁style ▁is ▁evident ▁in ▁the ▁" ag it ato ▁e ▁m ister ioso " ▁section , ▁which ▁begins ▁four ▁bars ▁after ▁rehe ars al ▁ 3 3 , ▁as ▁well ▁as ▁in ▁other ▁sections , ▁many ▁of ▁which ▁include ▁the ▁or chestra . ▁Nov el ty ▁piano ▁can ▁be ▁heard ▁at ▁rehe ars al ▁ 9 ▁with ▁the ▁revel ation ▁of ▁the ▁Train ▁theme . ▁The ▁hes itations ▁and ▁light - heart ed ▁style ▁of ▁comic ▁piano , ▁a ▁v au dev ille ▁approach ▁to ▁piano ▁made ▁well ▁known ▁by ▁Ch ico ▁Marx ▁and ▁Jimmy ▁Durante , ▁are ▁evident ▁at ▁rehe ars al ▁ 2 2 . ▁ ▁In ▁popular ▁culture ▁As ▁early ▁as ▁ 1 9 5 5 , ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ▁served ▁as ▁the ▁inspiration ▁for ▁a ▁composition ▁by ▁the ▁noted ▁accord ion ist / com poser ▁John ▁Ser ry ▁Sr . ▁which ▁was ▁subsequently ▁published ▁in ▁ 1 9 5 7 ▁( see ▁American ▁R haps ody ). ▁ ▁R haps ody ▁in ▁Blue ▁has ▁been ▁interpreted ▁as ▁a ▁musical

▁lists ▁all ▁the ▁chemical ▁sub stances ▁used ▁by ▁the ▁industries ▁and ▁all ▁the ▁information ▁concerning ▁them . ▁When ▁a ▁company ▁decides ▁to ▁use ▁a ▁non - RE ACH ▁listed ▁substance ▁or ▁an ▁ingred ient ▁in ▁which ▁the ▁information ▁is ▁ins ufficient , ▁the ▁company ▁must ▁demonstrate ▁that ▁these ▁sub stances ▁are ▁safe . ▁Tests ▁must ▁then ▁be ▁performed ▁by ▁the ▁company ▁itself ▁as ▁it ▁is ▁responsible ▁for ▁ensuring ▁the ▁safety ▁of ▁the ▁sub stances ▁they ▁use . ▁These ▁may ▁be ▁alternative ▁tests ▁for ▁animal ▁testing ▁or ▁animal ▁testing ▁where ▁there ▁is ▁no ▁alternative ▁under ▁the ▁law . ▁ ▁Chem ical ▁ingredients ▁used ▁at ▁more ▁than ▁one ▁ton ▁per ▁year ▁in ▁Europe ▁are ▁comp ul sor ily ▁tested . ▁Indeed , ▁the ▁European ▁Commission ▁can ▁estimate ▁that ▁it ▁is ▁necessary ▁to ▁evaluate ▁the ▁risks ▁for ▁certain ▁sub stances . ▁Thus , ▁even ▁for ▁purely ▁cos metic ▁ingredients , ▁animal ▁testing ▁can ▁always ▁be ▁done ▁to ▁ensure ▁the ▁safety ▁of ▁workers ▁exposed ▁to ▁it ▁in ▁the ▁manufacturing ▁process . ▁The ▁RE ACH ▁Reg ulation ▁thus ▁goes ▁beyond ▁the ▁Cos met ics ▁Reg ulation ▁because ▁the ▁European ▁Commission ▁considers ▁that ▁in - v it ro ▁( non - an imal ) ▁methods ▁are ▁not ▁sufficiently ▁reliable ▁and ▁under est imate ▁the ▁danger ▁of ▁certain ▁sub stances . ▁ ▁RE ACH ▁can ▁pass ▁over ▁the ▁law ▁that ▁prohib its ▁animal ▁testing ▁of ▁ingredients ▁and ▁finished ▁cos metic ▁products ▁from ▁ 2 0 1 3 . ▁ ▁Ex port ▁to ▁China ▁ ▁Mand atory ▁to ▁testing ▁animals ▁before

▁Place ▁all ▁odd ▁symbols ▁in ▁one ▁group , ▁and ▁all ▁even ▁symbols ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁group . ▁( This ▁is ▁not ▁quite ▁accurate , ▁because ▁U ng er bo e ck ▁was ▁looking ▁at ▁the ▁two ▁dimensional ▁problem , ▁but ▁the ▁principle ▁is ▁the ▁same .) ▁Take ▁every ▁other ▁symbol ▁in ▁each ▁group ▁and ▁repeat ▁the ▁procedure ▁for ▁each ▁tree ▁lim b . ▁He ▁next ▁described ▁a ▁method ▁of ▁assign ing ▁the ▁encoded ▁bit ▁stream ▁onto ▁the ▁symbols ▁in ▁a ▁very ▁systematic ▁procedure . ▁Once ▁this ▁procedure ▁was ▁fully ▁described , ▁his ▁next ▁step ▁was ▁to ▁program ▁the ▁algorithms ▁into ▁a ▁computer ▁and ▁let ▁the ▁computer ▁search ▁for ▁the ▁best ▁codes . ▁The ▁results ▁were ▁aston ishing . ▁Even ▁the ▁most ▁simple ▁code ▁( 4 ▁state ) ▁produced ▁error ▁rates ▁nearly ▁one ▁one - th ous and th ▁of ▁an ▁equivalent ▁unc oded ▁system . ▁For ▁two ▁years ▁U ng er bo e ck ▁kept ▁these ▁results ▁private ▁and ▁only ▁convey ed ▁them ▁to ▁close ▁colleagues . ▁Finally , ▁in ▁ 1 9 8 2 , ▁U ng er bo e ck ▁published ▁a ▁paper ▁describing ▁the ▁principles ▁of ▁tre ll is ▁mod ulation . ▁ ▁A ▁fl ur ry ▁of ▁research ▁activity ▁ens ued , ▁and ▁by ▁ 1 9 9 0 ▁the ▁International ▁Tele commun ication ▁Union ▁had ▁published ▁mod em ▁standards ▁for ▁the ▁first ▁tre ll is - mod ulated ▁mod em ▁at ▁ 1 4 . 4 kil ob its / s ▁( 2 , 4 0 0
