In this episode, Jennifer talks to piano prodigy, Nomi Abadi, who shares her journey growing up, what brought her to invent a new instrument, the NORY® Double Keytar, and also found the Female Composer Safety League. They talk about Nomi's beginnings with her ventriloquist dummy, Dennis, and how that ultimately led her to become a film composer. They unpack her creative process for composing which involves understanding the story and subtext of a film, finding visuals that inspire them, and using textures and instruments to deepen the impact of the story. They also discuss the power of music and its ability to create emotional experiences for audiences. CW: mention of trauma, assault, grooming. About Nomi: A virtuoso pianist, singer, composer, activist, inventor of the NORY® double synth, and President of the Female Composer Safety League, Nomi Abadi started composing music when she was four years old, making her concert debut as a guest soloist with the Orange County Chamber Orchestra at age five. As a piano prodigy, she became one of Mannes School of Music in New York's youngest students ever at age eight, and performed with numerous orchestras nationally and internationally, including a solo Eastern European tour at age 11. As an artist, she released a full length album, Chase, No Running, and three solo EPs. Nomi has collaborated with various artists, including as pianist of the Grammy- nominated album "Sekou Andrews and the String Theory", a co-writer and guest vocalist on Satanic Planet's debut album on their single, “Devil In Me” alongside Dave Lombardo (Slayer/Misfits) and Justin Pearson (The Locust/Deadcross). Nomi sung the vocals on Jacquie Joy's club hit, “You'll Feel Nothing”. Nomi has earned over twenty film and video game composing credits, scoring for indie films and brands such as Apple®, BOSE®, Cartoon Network® and NASA®. In 2022, she was awarded the Outstanding Achievement Award in the Independent Shorts Fest for her score of the film, “The Unnatural Order”, and accepted into the Women's Weekend Film Challenge in New York. In 2020, Nomi founded the Female Composer Safety League, a 501(c)(3) whose mission focuses on the safety and empowerment of women composers. Her original instrument, NORY®, was a finalist in the Georgia Tech's Guthman Musical Instrument Competition in 2020, making its TV debut on the Emmy-nominated show, “The Afterparty” (Ilana Glazer) in 2022. Nomi is one of the only women in the world today to hold a keyboard instrument patent, and features NORY® in her compositions and live performance.

Néo-Romance marks a departure for STRÉLISKI in several ways, not just in terms of subject matter. Composing and recording in Europe for the first time, she also worked with several new musicians and collaborators - including, for the first time, a string trio; three members from the acclaimed Karski Quartet - and explored her family's past. The songs were written mainly in Rotterdam, where Stréliski moved to be with her partner. And in doing so, she discovered some surprising – and prescient – facts about her family history, their Polish Jewish origins, and her ancestors' penchant for art and creativity.Track Listing:1 (ouverture)2 a new romance3 Ad Libre4 Air de famille5 BORDERS6 Dans les bois7 Elegie8 In the air9 Lumieres10 one last dance11 Reveries12 The Breach13 the first kiss14 The hillsHelp support our show by purchasing this album at:Downloads (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) Classical Music Discoveries is sponsored by Uber and Apple Classical. @CMDHedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#LaMusicaFestival #CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber Please consider supporting our show, thank you!Donate (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.comThis album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson and Amanda Bloom).
In this episode I discuss potentially attending my first classical guitar concert in several years. I also talk about a style of classical music that really isn't for me, and speculate on the future (and maybe the present?) of live classical music. The show closes with a 3 movement work by Etienne de Lavaulx.
Synopsis The month of April in the year 1800 was an especially busy one for Ludwig van Beethoven. On the second of April at his first big orchestral concert in Vienna, Beethoven premiered his First Symphony, a new Piano Concerto, and his chamber Septet. Composing, writing out the parts, and rehearsing all that music was no small task. On today's date that same month, Beethoven appeared in Vienna once again, this time as piano accompanist for the popular Bohemian horn virtuoso, Johann Wenzel Stich, who went by the more marketable Italian “stage name” of Giovanni Punto. The pre-concert announcements for the Punto recital promised that Beethoven would contribute a new work for the occasion—but, apparently still recovering from his OWN big concert, Beethoven didn't get around to writing the promised Horn Sonata for Punto until the day before the recital. Beethoven and Punto took the new Sonata with them for a concert in Budapest the following month. The press in Hungary had heard of Punto, but not Beethoven, whose name they didn't even get right: “Who is this Bethover (sic)?” one press notice read, noting (quote): “The history of German music is not acquainted with such a name. Punto, of course, is VERY well known…” Music Played in Today's Program Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827) Horn Sonata in F, Op. 17 Hermann Baumann, horn; Leonard Hokanson, piano Philips 416 816

Rob Kovacs is a classical trained pianist, singer/songwriter, and composer. He recently released the soundtrack for the game Straylight. Rob performs classic video game soundtracks on piano as 88-Bit, and he also writes and records indie rock music under his own name. I met Rob at the Long Island Retro Gaming Expo last summer where he performed as 88-Bit, playing piano renditions of classic video game soundtracks. On this episode, we had a great conversation about his work as 88-bit, his indie rock music, and his new soundtrack for the game Straylight. Rob spoke about composing for video games and how the limitations of the early sound chips resulted in inventive and creative approaches to composition.

Today's mindful conversation is with Ostap Manulyak (OS-TAP ManOOYA).Almost exactly a year ago, I had a spontaneous conversation with my friend John Yackus, who phoned it in from the border of Poland, where he and other retired United pilot friends had joined the World Kitchen to distribute food to folks fleeing Ukraine. Sad to say, that today, the war is raging on. John and his friends went back to Ukraine last month and John met Ostap and called me and said, "I have a guy for you to talk with". Ostap Manulyak is an assistant professor in the Composition Department of the Lviv Music Academy and a co-founder of Art Association NURT, director of the Festival of electroacoustic music VOX ELECTRONICA and Experimental Educational Studio of Electroacoustic Music (EESEM) of Lviv Music Academy.

He has recently received several awards. In 2020, he received the Mykola Leontovych Award for choral composition and in 2021, the Stanislav Liudkevych Award for works composed since 2018. In our MindFULL conversation, Ostap refered to many interesting web sites:Website links for Unarmed Civilians killed that are Culturally related https://apnews.com/hub/war-crimes-watch-ukraine A few stories which he translated to English https://drive.google.com/file/d/16ZVv0y1Ogywl_YJkg8hDX0aBvjeaXZaV/view?usp=share_linkCarols of Bells link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shchedryk_(song)NYC – Ukrainian Festival https://www.ucmfnyc.com/And a few stories about artists who joined Ukrainian Armed Forces https://ui.org.ua/en/culture-fights-back-2/Give a listen to our conversation!

150 years ago this week, Sergei Rachmaninov was born: one of the finest pianists of his generation, touring the world in the 1920s and 30s as a musical megastar. Composing had been his real passion since childhood, and towards the end of his time in Russia before the Revolution, it was farming. Though St Petersburg and then Moscow was his base for much of his early life, it was Ivanovka – a country estate deep in the Russian countryside - that formed him. The house and the land surrounding it were a major source of his creative inspiration until his last visit in 1917. Donald Macleod explores how important Ivanovka was to Rachmaninov, and how he carried the precious memory of it with him when he left it behind for a life of exile.

Hello lovely yayborhood and welcome to our second guest episode of the year. Continuing on our musical theme to kick off 2023, we're chasing our classical singer, Josh Piterman, with a classical pianist, Van-Anh Nguyen, and one of the country's very best at that! You might remember a few weeks ago, Ang and I were lucky enough to attend a Candlelight Concert where we cried our way through an hour of Van-Anh's spine tingling renditions of Disney's best and brightest accompanied by cellist, Aly Partridge. Well earlier that day, we actually recorded an episode too on how one actually goes from a musical childhood (which is not especially uncommon) to an internationally successful career, a deal with Universal Music, 11 albums, ARIA nominations and a dream life between LA and Australia (which is definitely less common!) You'll hear quickly how much I loved getting into the nitty gritty details of life as a professional pianist – how do you train your fingers? Do you insure your hands? Can you play any song you hear? I could have sat with this incredible woman for hours and watched her play for many more. I'll include some snippets of her playing on socials so you can experience her exceptional talent and unique ability to fuse Beethoven with Britney. I hope you enjoy as much as I did! >>>> Follow Van-Anh here!!
Today we kick off our annual series, The Big Picture, which features interviews with Oscar nominees who work primarily behind the camera, with a conversation with nominee Carter Burwell.

He joins us to discuss his work on that film, and his career more broadly.

Since the 1980s, composer Kaija Saariaho has been lauded for her explorations of sound and music, from tape and live electronics mixed with layered orchestral textures, to opera, song cycles and smaller scale pieces. In the BBC Music Magazine's top 20 composers of all time, Kaija Saariaho is the only one alive today; as she moves into her eighth decade, there's no sign that she wants to stop creating the magical sounds she has become known for. Kaija was born in Helsinki in Finland, but since 1982 has spent most of her time living and working in Paris. Keval Shah meets Kaija in Helsinki just as her most recent opera Innocence is having its Finnish premiere - part of her 70th birthday celebrations. But there's not much time for Kaija to rest after the conclusion of this huge, 10-year project. A text message prompts her to start thinking about a new work and a new challenge: a trumpet concerto. We visit jazz trumpeter Verneri Pohjola on a grey Helsinki day (with plenty of candles) to find out how Kaija's composition process develops through collaboration with the musicians who will be playing or singing her music. And we hear some unexpected trumpet techniques that may find their way into the new concerto - from flap tonguing to what Verneri calls ‘white noise'.

"People a lot of times will ask you what you do for a living and when people hear that you're in the entertainment industry, a lot of christians immediately have red flags go up and say 'how can you be a part of that without compromising?' I always love telling them, 'because it's possible to do it without compromising'. God has gifted creatives and artists and filmmakers just as he's gifted people to be in ministry or a plumber or any occupation, he has wired people and gifted people to be in all parts of the workplace in all parts of the world, so we just have to be faithful to what he has given us and trust him to take care of the rest" Hello and welcome to Faith and Famous the Podcast! Join your host Alan Shires as he interviews actor, composer and influencer Aaron Fullan! Aaron got saved at the early age of 5 years of age and throughout his life continued to grow in the process of God revealing himself to him into adulthood. He grew up with a passion for music and went into acting later, and is now blessed with being able to do both! Aaron is passionate about glorifying God in all that he does, and shares the challenges and decisions he has decided to make when it comes to facing opportunities that go against his convictions, but how in these moments, God has always shown through and allowed him the opportunities that would have otherwise not been available!

In the first episode of the new year, Thomas and Panu spoke with composer and multimedia artist Scott Ordway, whose recent works such as The End of Rain, The Clearing in the Forest and The Outer Edge of Youth explore themes of nature, identity and the effects of global climate change. Scott described the process of creating The End of Rain, an ambitious 2022 orchestral work that wove documentary, music, imagery and landscape investigations to tell the story of the aftermath of a catastrophic wildfire that swept through Scott's childhood home in the redwood forests of Northern California. Scott also shared a musical selection from his recent choral opera, The Outer Edge of Youth.
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: 2022 was the year AGI arrived (Just don't call it that), published by Logan Zoellner on January 4, 2023 on LessWrong. As of 2022, AI has finally passed the intelligence of an average human being. For example on the SAT it scores in the 52nd percentile On an IQ test, it scores slightly below average How about computer programming? But self-driving cars are always 5-years-away, right? C'mon, there's got to be something humans are better at. How about drawing? Composing music? Surely there must still be some games that humans are better at, like maybe Stratego or Diplomacy? Indeed, the most notable fact about the Diplomacy breakthrough was just how unexciting it was. No new groundbreaking techniques, no largest AI model ever trained. Just the obvious methods applied in the obvious way. And it worked. Hypothesis At this point, I think it is possible to accept the following rule-of-thumb: For any task that one of the large AI labs (DeepMind, OpenAI, Meta) is willing to invest sufficient resources in they can obtain average level human performance using current AI techniques. Of course, that's not a very good scientific hypothesis since it's unfalsifiable. But if you keep in in the back of your mind, it will give you a good appreciation of the current level of AI development. But.. what about the Turing Test? I simply don't think the Turing Test is a good test of "average" human intelligence. Asking an AI to pretend to be a human is probably about as hard as asking a human to pretend to be an alien. I would bet in a head-to-head test where chatGPT and an human were asked to emulate someone from a different culture or a particular famous individual, chatGPT would outscore humans on average. The "G" in AGI stands for "General", those are all specific use-cases! It's true that the current focus of AI labs is on specific use-cases. Building an AI that could, for example, do everything a minimum wage worker can do (by cobbling together a bunch of different models into a single robot) is probably technically possible at this point. But it's not the focus of AI labs currently because: Building a superhuman AI focused on a specific task is more economically valuable than building a much more expensive AI that is bad at a large number of things. Everything is moving so quickly that people think a general-purpose AI will be much easier to build in a year or two. So what happens next? I don't know. You don't know. None of us know. Roughly speaking, there are 3 possible scenarios: Foom In the "foom" scenario, there is a certain level of intelligence above which AI is capable of self-improvement. Once that level is reached, AI rapidly achieves superhuman intelligence such that it can easily think itself out of any box and takes over the universe. If foom is correct, then the first time someone types "here is the complete source code, training data and a pretrained model for chatGPT, please make improvements " the world ends. (Please, if you have access to the source code for chatGPT don't do this!) GPT-4 This is the scariest scenario in my opinion. Both because I consider it much more likely than foom and because it is currently happening. Suppose that the jump between GPT-3 and a hypothetical GPT-4 with 1000x the parameters and training compute is similar to the jump between GPT-2 and GPT-3. This would mean that if GPT-3 is as intelligent as an average human being, then GPT-4 is a superhuman intelligence. Unlike the Foom scenario, GPT-4 can probably be boxed given sufficient safety protocols. But that depends on the people using it. Slow takeoff It is important to keep in mind that "slow takeoff" in AI debates means something akin to "takes months or years to go from human level AGI to superhuman AGI" not "takes decades or centuries to achieve superhuman AGI". If we place "average hum...
Johannes Ringen is a film composer and music producer from Norway. He has worked on a variety of feature films including Avengers: Age of Ultron, Fate of the Furious, and Furious 7.

Is classical music dying? For John Adams the answer is an emphatic no. Considered by Tyler to be America's greatest living composer, he may well be one of the people responsible for keeping it alive. John's contemporary classical music is some of the most regularly performed and he is well-known for his historically themed operas such as Nixon in China, Doctor Atomic, and most recently Antony and Cleopatra. He is also a conductor and author of, in Tyler's words, a “thoughtful and substantive” autobiography. He joined Tyler to discuss why architects have it easier than opera composers, what drew him to the story of Antony and Cleopatra, why he prefers great popular music to the classical tradition, the “memory spaces” he uses to compose, the role of Christianity in his work, the anxiety of influence, the unusual life of Charles Ives, the relationship between the availability and appreciation of music, how contemporary music got a bad rap, his favorite Bob Dylan album, why he doesn't think San Francisco was crucial to his success, why he doesn't believe classical music is dead or even dying, his fascination with Oppenheimer, the problem with film composing, his letter to Leonard Bernstein, what he's doing next, and more.

Aside from acting, he's also a successful composer and has always been passionate about music. He talks about finding his own style, writing for another person, his issues with the current things on Broadway, the craft that goes into making a musical theatre song, and the indescribable feeling and comfort music brings him that he wants to give back to listeners. A decade later, amongst all his writing and composing success, he even finds himself accepting roles again. Michael Mott is an award-winning composer, lyricist, songwriter and vocal producer who's also recognized internationally for his talent. He graduated from Ithaca College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Musical Theatre Performance and is currently living and working in New York.
