August 2, 2010 by Allen H Simon Leave a Comment

WINTHROP, Wash. A man killed in a collision on Highway 20 near Winthrop has been identified as Seattle musical director and conductor George Shangrow.

The Wenatchee World reports he was on his way Saturday to deliver a lecture at the Methow Valley Chamber Music Festival when his car collided with a car driven by a 16-year-old. The teen suffered a broken collarbone and ankle in the accident.

The 59-year-old Shangrow was founder of the Seattle Chamber Singers and Orchestra Seattle. He appeared as a guest conductor with orchestras and hosted the “Live, by George” Seattle radio show that featured live classical performances.

Music and Technology in the Classrooom

July 31, 2010 by Laurin Daniels Leave a Comment

 Hi, 
My name is Laurin Daniels and I am a senior Music Education major at Appalachian State University.  I am currently involved in a research project with a faculty member seeking answers to how to teach the upcoming students in 2010, 2015, 2020 and beyond.  We are researching generational gaps, new technologies, changing learning styles etc.  We at the Hayes School of Music would love your input on your teaching styles, technology use, and your observations of today’s and tomorrow’s students. If you’ve got a few minutes and don’t mind responding to a survey (about 10 minutes), your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
 
Please follow the below link

Thank you so much,
Laurin Daniels

An important article has been published, announcing the discovery of the famousStabat Mater used as a sequence in the Gradual produced by a convent of Dominican nuns in Bologna in the later thirteenth century. This is by far the earliest known example of this hymn used as a sequence rather than as a devotional hymn.

Donald Nally to resign from Lyric Opera of Chicago

July 27, 2010 by Allen H Simon Leave a Comment

By now, nobody in Philadelphia should be surprised that conductor Donald Nally is making a hard-to-explain departure: Lyric Opera of Chicago is expected to announce this week that chorus master Nally is leaving at the end of the 2010-11 season to spend more time with his Philadelphia choir, The Crossing.

What wasn’t said: He’s leaving one of the top positions of its kind (Chicago’s previous chorus master is now at the Metropolitan Opera) – with uncertain financial prospects.
