Winter-Spring, 2014
Greetings Musicians
“Spring Semester” has been something of a misnomer this year, but the flowers will be out sooner than we
realize. The Music Collection continues to serve the needs of faculty, staff, and students, though more of you
have called or e-mailed rather than come in person. We don’t mind! We are here for you whether you’re
snowed in or across the continent for a conference.
— Amy Edmonds

Human Voice, sung by Florence Foster Jenkins, the
New York socialite whose so-bad-they’re good recitals were de rigeur for the elite class in the 1950s.

Featured CDs
The Orchid Ensemble.
Heartland.
Compact Disc 21884
The Orchid Ensemble
consists of Lan Tung, (left)
erhu, Mei Han (center),
zheng, and Jonathan
Bernard (right), on marimba and percussion. Together
they blend Chinese, Javanese and European traditions
in original compositions and arrangements of Chinese
classics.
Forte. By Forte
Compact Disc 21900
Three classically-trained tenors
formed a group to compete on
last season’s America’s Got
Talent television show.
They made it to the finals and
finished in fourth place. With arrangements
reminiscent of crossover sensation Il Divo, this
self-titled debut album promises to be the first of
many that will introduce the
operatic sound to more audiences.
John Somebody, by Scott Johnson
(1982) Compact Disc 21948
Tape loops in 1982 were actual
tapes, and “sampling” meant cutting
up pieces of tape. Scott Johnson’s
John Somebody used short snippets of conversation,
snipped into even shorter phonemes then fashioned
into melodic motives. Electric guitars, percussion and
winds flesh out the work’s movements. After the
success of John Somebody, Scott Johnson was asked
to supply the soundtrack for a
movie based on Patty Hearst’s
life as a captive of the
Synbionese Liberation Army.
The result plus some added
tracks can be heard on
Johnson’s album, Patty Hearst:
Compact Disc 21949.

All This and World
War II was a dismal
failure as a feature
film. In the film,
Beatles songs
covered by other
artists accompany
images from
World War II. The juxtaposition
was just too absurd for audiences,
but the soundtrack was a moderate
success:
