:Yes. Next question: What do you call the kind of [[broken chord]] which is indicated by a wavy line to the left of the notes? And how do you distinguish that from the typical arpeggio which is written out in, say, eighth notes (or as Bach did with the Well-Tempered Clavier Prelude #1, sixteenth notes)? --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 18:20, 25 May 2009 (EDT)

Hi, welcome to CP, I'd reccomend writing something on your userpage in order to give you a blue name! GFasten 18:01, 16 March 2009 (EDT)

Thanks for the tip. There's something preliminary there now. I hope to add more later. JDWpianist 18:29, 16 March 2009 (EDT)
Welcome to Conservapedia! --Joaquín Martínez 09:15, 17 March 2009 (EDT)
What are the images you need? You may use also Conservapedia:Image upload requests. --Joaquín Martínez 16:09, 17 March 2009 (EDT)
Thanks for the tip, and a belated thanks for the welcome! I happen to have a lot of musical examples for basic music theory, which I created on Sibelius notation software while I was a Teaching Assistant. I'll use the image upload request.JDWpianist 17:35, 17 March 2009 (EDT)

And now?

Vienna, thanks for the suggestion. --Joaquín Martínez 23:40, 8 April 2009 (EDT)

The new gallery looks great! And that's definitely the Stephansdom I know and love -- though the renovation on the tower finished very recently and it's looking even better now. You know, for Maundy Thursday, they pealed the bells at 7 p.m., it's a haunting, ancient sound.
I was inspired by your additions to flesh out the article a lot more. Hope you enjoy it. JDWpianist 17:51, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
Thanks again and Godspeed. --Joaquín Martínez 20:10, 18 April 2009 (EDT)

Any proposal for new articles?

--Joaquín Martínez 20:01, 22 May 2009 (EDT)

Thank you for your reply. We have material for a month; may be you will have then finished some articles to include. Godspeed. --Joaquín Martínez 15:04, 24 May 2009 (EDT)

Clarinet

Who first called it a 'licorice stick'? And what is the role of the clarinet in the big bands of the Big Band Era? --Ed Poor Talk 17:24, 25 May 2009 (EDT)

I think the "licorice stick" epithet came around just as big bands were becoming popular, in the '30s, though it's not clear if it can be traced to any one person. The clarinet was a big deal much earlier in New Orleans Jazz, where it played a mostly obbligato role (see also the page on heterophony). This role kind of morphed over into Big Band Jazz, where as a solo instrument it played lots of decoration over the main melody. The great soloists like Benny Goodman of course had a big part in shaping that. Later into the 40's, Ellington and Count Basie wrote some pieces with whole clarinet ensembles instead of saxophones, which gave it a special moody character.

Hope that helps. JDWpianist 17:34, 25 May 2009 (EDT)
