Comparing Rabbath, Simandl, and Suzuki Methods for Double BassWhen learning the double bass, choosing the right method can shape a musician's technique, interpretation, and overall approach to the instrument. Three of the most influential double bass pedagogical methods—François Rabbath, Franz Simandl, and Shinichi Suzuki—offer distinct philosophies, each with its strengths and limitations.Simandl Method: The Traditional FoundationFranz Simandl's New Method for the Double Bass (published in 1874) remains a cornerstone of classical double bass pedagogy. Rooted in the Viennese school of playing, it emphasizes strict positional playing, a systematic approach to shifting, and progressive technical development.Strengths:Structured Learning: Simandl's method divides the fingerboard into positions, with most of the left-hand technique built around half position and first position, progressively expanding.Orchestral Application: It prepares bassists well for classical and orchestral playing, focusing on intonation and bow control.Comprehensive Exercises: Etudes and exercises provide a solid technical foundation for developing consistent tone and precision.Limitations:Shifting Complexity: The heavy reliance on shifting (as opposed to pivoting or extended techniques) can make rapid passages feel cumbersome.Rigid Approach: Some bassists find Simandl's method too mechanical, limiting expression and modern techniques.The Simandl method is ideal for students who want a solid classical foundation, particularly those aiming for orchestral careers.Rabbath Method: A Revolutionary ApproachFrançois Rabbath, a Syrian-born French bassist, developed a modern approach to double bass playing, challenging many traditional techniques. His method, documented in Nouvelle Technique de la Contrebasse, promotes fluidity, efficiency, and musicality.Strengths:Fewer Positions, More Freedom: Instead of the rigid positional system of Simandl, Rabbath divides the fingerboard into six broad positions, relying on pivoting and natural hand shapes for smoother transitions.Expressive Playing: Encourages musical phrasing and a natural approach to technique, making it highly suitable for soloists and contemporary bassists.Ergonomic Efficiency: Advocates for economy of motion, reducing unnecessary tension and allowing faster, more agile playing.Thumb Position Mastery: Introduces thumb position early, which helps players navigate the upper register with ease.Limitations:Difficult to Adapt for Traditionalists: Bassists trained in Simandl may find Rabbath's method disorienting at first.Soloist-Oriented: While beneficial for expressive playing, some orchestral musicians feel it lacks the same rigor in foundational orchestral technique as Simandl.Rabbath's method is ideal for bassists seeking a freer, more modern approach, especially those interested in solo repertoire, jazz, and contemporary music.Suzuki Method: An Aural Approach for Early LearnersShinichi Suzuki's method, originally developed for violinists, has been adapted for double bass and emphasizes learning by ear, early musicality, and group learning. The Suzuki method introduces bassists to music through listening, imitation, and repetition, fostering strong fundamental technique from a young age.Strengths:Early Start: Suitable for very young learners, using simplified repertoire to build intonation, rhythm, and bowing technique.Emphasis on Ear Training: Develops intonation and phrasing naturally through listening and repetition.Group Learning: Encourages ensemble playing, making it highly engaging for young musicians.Limitations:Limited Repertoire for Advanced Players: While great for beginners, Suzuki's method lacks the depth of Simandl or Rabbath for professional-level development.Less Emphasis on Reading Music Initially: Since it focuses on aural learning, students might develop reading skills later compared to traditional methods.Suzuki is an excellent method for young beginners, offering a nurturing and ear-focused introduction to the double bass.Which Method is Best?The “best” method depends on the player's goals:For Orchestral Players: Simandl provides the most structured foundation.For Soloists and Contemporary Bassists: Rabbath offers fluidity and expressiveness.For Young Beginners: Suzuki nurtures musicality and ear training in an engaging way.Many modern bassists incorporate elements from all three—using Simandl for traditional technique, Rabbath for agility and expression, and Suzuki's principles for early training and musical development.No matter which method you choose, the key to mastering the double bass lies in dedicated practice, strong fundamentals, and musical expression.

 https://www.iservalan.com https://www.taletellerclub.comChapter 2: Classical Antiquity – Pleasure, Power, and Myth(Greece, Rome, India, China, Japan)Erotic Art in the Classical World: Sensuality, Divinity, and the Human FormThe civilizations of Greece and Rome profoundly shaped Western attitudes toward eroticism, beauty, and the human body. Meanwhile, in Asia, India, China, and Japan developed their own rich traditions of erotic art, where sexuality was intertwined with spirituality, aesthetics, and philosophy. Across these cultures, erotic imagery was not just about desire—it was deeply connected to mythology, religious devotion, and social identity.The Greek Celebration of the Nude and the DivineAncient Greek art (c. 800–146 BCE) is renowned for its idealized representations of the human form, including sensual and erotic depictions. Unlike later Western traditions, which often moralized sexuality, the Greeks saw eroticism as an essential aspect of life, closely tied to their gods, heroes, and social structures.The Male Nude and Homoeroticism in Greek ArtGreek sculptures and vase paintings frequently depicted the nude male body as a symbol of beauty, strength, and divine perfection. The kouroi (statues of young men) and later the works of sculptors like Phidias, Polykleitos, and Praxiteles showcased a balance of realism and idealism.Homoeroticism played a significant role in Greek culture, particularly in the institution of pederasty, where older men (erastai) mentored and formed relationships with younger men (eromenoi). While controversial today, these relationships were embedded in Greek education, social bonding, and military camaraderie. Erotic vase paintings and sculptures, such as those on the Warren Cup, openly depicted same-sex relationships without stigma.Aphrodite and the Feminine EroticThe goddess Aphrodite, associated with love and beauty, was a central figure in Greek erotic art. The first known fully nude female sculpture, Aphrodite of Knidos by Praxiteles (c. 360 BCE), marked a shift in the portrayal of female sensuality. While earlier depictions of women were clothed, this work introduced the eroticized nude female body as an artistic norm in Western art.Rome: Eroticism, Excess, and Moral ContradictionsThe Romans inherited much from Greek artistic traditions but added their own flair for luxury, satire, and explicit eroticism. Roman erotic art ranged from refined frescoes in wealthy villas to bawdy graffiti in brothels, revealing a culture that embraced sexuality in both elite and everyday contexts.Pompeii and Herculaneum: A Window into Roman EroticismThe eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE preserved vast amounts of erotic art in Pompeii and Herculaneum, offering an unparalleled glimpse into Roman attitudes toward sexuality. Frescoes from the Villa of the Mysteries and Lupanar (brothel) depict explicit scenes, suggesting that sexuality was not hidden but woven into public and private life.One of the most famous artifacts, the Priapus fresco, shows the god Priapus weighing his exaggerated phallus against a bag of money—a humorous but symbolic image of fertility and prosperity. Romans often associated large phallic imagery with protection, luck, and virility.Satire and Social Commentary in Roman EroticaWhile erotic art was common, Rome also saw moral pushback against sexual excess. Writers like Ovid (Metamorphoses, Ars Amatoria) celebrated love and seduction, while others, like Juvenal, satirized the decadence of Roman society. The Augustan moral reforms (1st century BCE) attempted to impose sexual restraint, yet erotic art continued to flourish, reflecting the contradictions within Roman attitudes toward pleasure.Erotic Art in Ancient India: The Sacred and the SensualEroticism in ancient India was deeply entwined with spirituality, particularly through Hinduism and Tantra. Unlike in the West, where sexuality was often seen in opposition to religious purity, Indian art frequently depicted sensuality as an extension of divine energy.Temple Eroticism: Khajuraho and KonarkThe Khajuraho temple complex (c. 950–1050 CE) and the Konark Sun Temple (c. 13th century CE) feature intricate sculptures of deities, lovers, and erotic acts. These reliefs, far from being mere decoration, reflect the Hindu belief that sexual union mirrors cosmic unity and divine creation.The Kama Sutra and Indian Erotic TextsAttributed to Vātsyāyana, the Kama Sutra (3rd century CE) is one of the most famous texts on love and eroticism. Contrary to its popular perception as a sex manual, it is a sophisticated treatise on pleasure, relationships, and aesthetics. Accompanying illustrations in later manuscripts helped visualize its teachings, making it one of the most influential works of erotic literature.Erotic Art in Ancient China: Daoism and Sensual BalanceIn China, erotic art was shaped by Confucian ideals, Daoist philosophy, and later Buddhist influences. While Confucianism promoted restraint, Daoism embraced sexuality as a path to harmony and longevity.Daoist Sexual Arts and Painted ScrollsDaoist texts, such as the "Art of the Bedchamber", describe sexual practices believed to extend life and health. Erotic scroll paintings from the Tang (618–907 CE) and Song (960–1279 CE) dynasties often depicted intimate scenes with poetic inscriptions, emphasizing sensuality rather than crude explicitness.Later, during the Ming (1368–1644) and Qing (1644–1912) dynasties, erotic books known as "spring pictures" (春宫图) became popular among the elite, blending humor, philosophy, and eroticism.Japan's Shunga: The Floating World of SensualityJapanese erotic art, or Shunga (春画), flourished during the Edo period (1603–1868). These woodblock prints, created by masters such as Hokusai and Utamaro, depicted erotic encounters with both aesthetic refinement and explicit detail. Unlike in the West, where erotic art often faced suppression, Shunga was widely enjoyed across social classes.Shunga as Art, Satire, and InstructionShunga prints were not just pornographic; they served multiple purposes, including sexual education, humor, and even political satire. Some depicted fantastical elements, such as Hokusai's famous "The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife", blending eroticism with mythology.Conclusion: Classical Eroticism as a Reflection of CultureThe erotic art of classical antiquity reveals a diversity of attitudes toward sexuality:Idealized beauty and divine connection – Greek and Roman art celebrated the nude as an emblem of perfection.Religious and cosmic symbolism – Hindu and Daoist traditions saw sexuality as a path to spiritual enlightenment.Humor and satire – Roman and Japanese art often infused eroticism with wit and social commentary.While some traditions embraced erotic art as sacred, others saw it as a source of indulgence or controversy. The tension between openness and censorship would continue to shape erotic art in the centuries to come.The Warren Cup (1st century CE, Roman) A silver drinking cup featuring detailed homoerotic scenes, the Warren Cup provides insight into Roman attitudes toward male-male relationships. Hidden for centuries, it is now a key artifact in LGBTQ+ art history.Khajuraho Temple Reliefs (10th–11th century CE, India)These intricate sculptures depict a range of erotic acts, reinforcing the Hindu belief in sexuality as a divine force. Unlike Western art, which often separated the sacred from the sensual, Khajuraho integrates both seamlessly.The Frescoes of the Villa of the Mysteries (1st Century BCE, Pompeii, Roman Empire)The Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii contains one of the most famous and enigmatic fresco cycles from ancient Rome. While not explicitly erotic, many scholars believe the images depict a Dionysian initiation ritual, potentially related to sacred sexuality and mystery cults. The frescoes feature semi-nude figures, suggestive interactions, and themes of divine ecstasy, linking sexuality to spiritual transformation. This example highlights how Romans often blended eroticism with religious and ritualistic themes rather than treating it as purely physical pleasure.Shunga by Kitagawa Utamaro (1753–1806, Edo Period, Japan)Kitagawa Utamaro, one of the most celebrated ukiyo-e artists, created numerous Shunga (春画, "spring pictures"), which depicted intimate encounters with exquisite detail and elegance. His prints, such as Poem of the Pillow, emphasized the sensuality of touch, fabric, and movement, offering a refined and almost poetic take on erotic imagery. His work also often featured women's pleasure and agency, making it a significant contribution to the study of feminine desire in erotic art.#stencilart #originalart #investment art #blinkfrictionart #blinkfrictionfashion #reclaimart #reclaimfashion

IntroductionDefining Erotic Art: History, Purpose, and Cultural SignificanceErotic art has existed for as long as humans have been creating images, serving as an expression of desire, intimacy, power, and identity. Unlike simple depictions of nudity, which can be neutral or even clinical, erotic art is inherently charged with sensuality, intent, and a connection to human sexuality. From prehistoric fertility figures to contemporary digital provocations, erotic art has been a mirror reflecting cultural attitudes toward sex, gender, pleasure, and morality.The Boundaries of EroticismThe distinction between erotic art and pornography has been debated for centuries, often shaped by societal values, religious doctrine, and political agendas. While both deal with representations of sexuality, erotic art is typically seen as an exploration of sensuality through an artistic lens—concerned with beauty, intimacy, and human experience—rather than explicit gratification. However, these boundaries blur, and what one era considers high art, another may deem obscene.Erotic Art Across CulturesErotic art is not confined to any single culture or tradition. From the sensual sculptures of ancient India's Khajuraho temples to the delicate shunga prints of Japan's Edo period, societies around the world have expressed sexuality in ways that reflect their unique beliefs, taboos, and freedoms. While some civilizations have embraced erotic imagery as sacred or educational, others have sought to suppress and control it. These shifting attitudes reveal much about the intersection of art, power, and morality throughout history.The Role of the Female Gaze and Feminist PerspectivesFor centuries, much of erotic art was created through the male gaze—depicting women as objects of desire rather than autonomous agents of pleasure. However, female and non-male artists have long challenged these norms, creating works that reclaim the narrative of sexuality on their own terms. The feminist perspective in erotic art not only questions traditional depictions but also expands the conversation to include issues of consent, agency, and representation.Queer Erotic Art: Visibility and IdentityErotic art has also played a crucial role in the visibility and expression of LGBTQ+ identities. Queer artists have used their work to explore desire, identity, and relationships outside of heteronormative expectations. While often marginalized or censored, queer erotic art has been instrumental in shaping discussions on sexuality and representation, particularly in the modern era.Censorship and the Power of Erotic ArtFew artistic genres have been as frequently censored as erotic art. Throughout history, religious institutions, governments, and social movements have sought to control depictions of sex and nudity—often as a means of enforcing moral or political authority. From the destruction of ancient erotic murals to modern-day digital censorship, these efforts reveal the power of erotic art to challenge norms, provoke discourse, and redefine the boundaries of artistic freedom.Why This Book?This book traces the evolution of erotic art from its earliest forms to contemporary expressions, examining how artists have shaped and been shaped by cultural attitudes toward sexuality.

The Canadian Legion hosted an annual remembrance day ceremony at Veteran's Park in the City of Sarnia in Canada. They refused to allow the Outlaws MC to participate in the wreath laying ceremony and called the police on them. Some were arrested. Plus a good Samaritan jumps in to save a police officer who was run over by a biker. And Russian media shows naked pictures of Melania Trump. This is an outrage!

What is the evidence? Where are the studies? There is no proof that cannabis can treat anything! Well…What if I told you there are lots of studies showing that cannabis has medical benefits? What if there was a study going on right now in Sarnia looking at Cannabis and Dementia in Long Term Care (LTC) homes? Dr. Blake Pearson and his partners in Lambton County are the epitome of “Think Global, Act Local”. They are tackling the pervasive problem of dementia in all LTC homes by seeing if cannabis can improve it in their local LTC system. Their study also measures if cannabis use in Dementia patients can help reduce Care Giver Burnout. This exciting research on the shores of Lake Huron is adding to the growing mountain of cannabis as medicine. We also take a left turn into “Green Washing”, but it is not what you think. Come have a listen.  Pearson Health: pearsonhealth.org Music by: Don't Stop Believin' –Journeyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k8craCGpgs (Yes we got a SOCANmembership to use thissong all legal andproper like) Additional Music:Desiree Doriondesireedorion.comMarc Clementmarcclementmusic.com Transcripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca
