Copy of class e-mail, 8/28/07

Just in case you did not get this e-mail, here it is. Please let me know if you did not receive this also as an e-mail message:

Greetings,
I have the e-mail list finally, although not the complete assignment, but wanted to send this out. I will have an early symphony or two for you to listen to by this evening for first thing in the morning.
The following article should be on eReserve by this afternoon:

Robert L. Weaver’s essay in Peyser, The Orchestra, “The Consolidation of the Main Elements of the Orchestra: 1470-1768,” pp. 7-40.

Also you can look at the beginnings of the articles (on 18th-century) “Orchestra,” and “Symphony,” The New Grove Dictionary of Music (7th Edition), which is accessible on-line through the UK Libraries sites.

LISTENING:
Sammartini, Symphony in F, No. 32 (first movement) (with score as PDF file)
Stamitz, Sinfonia in E-flat (La Melodia Germanica No. 3) first movement (with score electronically posted)

These are from the Grout anthology, Volume 2, if you still have that from your music history sequence.
If you have any problems, please let me know.

I will post this on the blog, just in case I have your e-mail wrong.

So, more coming a little later this afternoon.

Thanks. Very good class discussion today.
