Captain, We Hit A Schoenberg! Did Arnold Schoenberg break Classical music? Widely considered the greatest composer of the 20th century, Schoenburg's innovations in ‘atonality' (a term he detested throughout his life) changed the trajectory of music forever. In this episode, Joanna and Stephen explore the ripples of Schoenberg's (much preferred) ‘emancipated dissonances', through modern British composers such as Tippet, Turnage, Weir and Maxwell Davies.

On April 20, 1842, twenty-one German noblemen met at Biebrich on the Rhine river, near Mainz and organized the Verein zum Schutze deutscher Einwanderer in Texas, or in words most of you will understand the Society for the Protection of German Immigrants in Texas. Most often you'll see it referred to as the Adelsverein. Adelsverein means Society in German. The creation of the Adelsverein marked the beginning of the very significant German impact on Texas history and heritage. Why would these German noblemen decide to do such a thing on April 20, 1842? From the early 1830s to the early 1840s, several publications had appeared in Germany praising Texas as a land of great personal liberty that was rich in abundant and productive land. These publications caught the attention of many people in Germany who were interested in finding a great destination for increasing German emigration. Texas sounded like the ideal place to settle. The reason for the emigration scheme was to provide the German proletariat with economic relief with direct emigration to Texas. There was a surplus of German labor and they needed a home where they could thrive. They also hoped that the establishment of German settlements in Texas would provide German industry with markets abroad help develop German maritime commerce. The Adelsverein sent two members to investigate and purchase land, counts Joseph of Boos-Waldeck and Victor August of Leiningen. Sam Houston offered them a land grant west of Austin but they declined out of their fear of Native American raids. Instead they purchased 4,428 acres in Fayette County. Later, they did indeed also select land to the west. The first German immigrants arrived in Texas in December 1844, and over time over 7,000 Germans arrived to their new Texas home and planted deep roots into the Texas heritage and soil. Even more would follow after the Adelsverein finally ceased to exist. New Braunfels and Fredericksburg were the society's first colonies. Bettina, Castell, Leiningen, Meerholz, and Schoenburg followed. The Adelsverein eventually fell apart but German migration to Texas continued. By 1850 Germans made up 5 percent of the population of Texas. Today about 3,000,000 people in Texas, or close to 20%, have German ancestry.  The Texas History Lessons Theme song, Walking Through History, was written and recorded by Derrick McClendon.

Kory Livingstone, Juno Award nominee, composer, educator, pianist & vocalist was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, one of the world’s most culturally diverse cities and home to the Bluejays, Leafs, and Raptors. In his teens he discovered the great jazz innovators Thelonious Monk, Bill Evan; the rhythm of James Brown and the genius of Bach, Beethoven and Arnold  Schoenburg. These were who helped Kory make music his calling in life. "My first professional job as as musician was playing organ in an R&B band at a birthday party. We made two bucks each, which seemed a lot of money at the time. Man, it was a blast!” In Kory’s early career as a pro, he sang and played piano in the piano bars that accented just about every hotel and club in Toronto. This was where he learned the music business; performing 6 nights a week, in an environment of thick cigarette smoke and booze. As an entrepreneur, Kory founded the Toronto High School for the Performing - an independent school where students combined the study of academics and the performing arts. Graduates include Keanu Reeves (Matrix) Cree Summer Francks (Different World) and Karen Fox the youngest person ever to be accepted into Sarah Lawrence University. Recently Kory has returned to York University to realize his life-long dream of becoming fully bilingual in French. He also enrolled in an advanced composition course as well. His goal in this regard is to have access to the wealth of musicians, singers, choirs, and arrangers on campus, to experiment with in his compositions. He also expects to pick up additional tricks of the trade to add to his personal arsenal of composing skills. "Now is the time to start working on your goals because "The time will never be right.”" To learn more about Kory Livingstone and his work, please visit korylivingstone.com or email kory@korylivngstone.com.

On this week's episode of Under the Dome, we review the final three days of the Illinois General Assembly's veto session, which culminated with Gov. Bruce Rauner making a public appearance in Springfield for the first time since his election loss to say he fears for Illinois' future under the incoming J.B. Pritzker administration. We also talk about a state representative apologizing for comments she made on the House floor that seemed to threaten another lawmaker.
