Sounds of Florence
Florence's song from the musical Notre-Dame de Paris describes the events of the Renaissance. Topics and mentions in the text: Florence Cultural Center. Many outstanding writers and artists of the Renaissance lived and worked in this city: Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo and others. Geographical discoveries. The song says that at the end of the 15th century, new territories were discovered: the islands in Southeast Asia were called the "East Indies", and the islands in the Caribbean were called the "west Indies". Luther's desire to rewrite the New Testament. Martin Luther translated the Bible into German and criticized Christian dogmas. This happened at the beginning of the 16th century, that is, in the Renaissance. The printing process. The second verse mentions the name Gutenberg and describes book printing. The Nuremberg Machines in the same verse are reminiscent of the Nuremberg Chronicle, a huge book printed in 1493 with woodcut illustrations. The intellectual development of mankind. The song says that textbooks will kill cathedrals, the Bible will kill the church, man will kill God, one thing will kill the other. #notredamedeparis #claudefrollo #gringoire
“Based on a poem written by Bessie Mayle (1898-1959) and published in The Crisis (the official journal of the NAACP) in 1930, Florence Price's Night exemplifies several aspects of the understated beauty and richness of her style. Black poets of the early twentieth century often used the beauty of the blackness of the nighttime sky to celebrate the beauty of their own Blackness, and to subvert traditional poetic images that viewed the darkness of night as an encroachment on the light of day — a symbolically potent subversion that implicitly encouraged Blacks to recognize their own Blackness as something autonomous and inherently beautiful rather than an encroachment on White dominance. The text symbolically equates the rich, dark beauty of the nighttime sky with the beauties and riches of Black culture, also reminding performers and listeners that the "ruling stars" against which the blackness of night is most evident are "very, very old" "stars of yellow gold" — a pointed reference to the slave trade that brought many Blacks to the U.S. Yet even though the glittering brilliance of the stars is what most poets have commented on, Mayle's poem and Price's music adopt a warm and embracing tone which ultimately affirms that the beauty of blackness and night are what will always endure, always return — and Price's decision to end with a sustained high note on the word evermore emphasizes the importance of that persistence in preserving and celebrating Black beauty.” - John Michael Cooper, editor of music by Florence Price I think it’s important to expose our students to historical music, contemporary music, and music of cultures around the globe. I believe in prioritizing and integrating historically underrepresented composers into curriculum. This piece was an intentional pairing with @zanaidarobles “No Fairytale Here,” which highlights the struggles and resilience of Ida B. Wells in her campaign for anti-lynching legislation during the Jim Crow era. The students reflected on the texts, histories, and metaphors inherent in these pieces. We had conversations about racism in history and how it affects our students today. We asked “how can we change the world,” “what is within my power to help,” and “what can I do when I encounter racist statements and actions.” I think these are powerful, and sometimes scary, questions to ask in rural Appalachia. Bessie Mayle (1898-1959) was a poet during the Harlem and the Chicago Black Renaissance. Her work is similar to that of Langston Hughes, and like much of women’s work, is lost to history. Florence Price (1887-1953) was an American classical composer, pianist, organist, and music teacher. She wrote over 300 compositions and was the first African-American woman to be recognized as a symphonic composer. #historicalmusic #expandingthecanon #choir #choirtok #choirdirector #historicalwomen #florenceprice #idabwells #bessiemayle
