Capítulo: “Conversations - On Schnabel and Interpretation with Konrad

 En esta conversación de 1979, Alfred Brendel y Konrad Wolff, autor de “The Teaching of Artur Schnabel. A Guide to Interpretation”, discuten sobre ciertos puntos en los que Brendel no coincide con Schnabel.
Para Wolff, Brendel es el primer pianista desde Schnabel que ha gozado de plena autoridad en la interpretación de Mozart, Beethoven y Schubert. Además, en su opinión, su enfoque tiene mucho en común con el de Schnabel en los detalles de fraseo, tempo y dinámicas.
Sin embargo, hay varias opiniones en las que Brendel difiere de Schnabel. Para Brendel, las frases son como curvas que no necesariamente se miden por compases: “Very often for me the art of phrasing consists in forgetting about bars, ignoring bars and seeing large units”.
Por su parte, de acuerdo a Wolff, Schnabel veía las frases en función de la respiración y del énfasis al principio o al final: “he wanted to know how far he was to play before there was a breath (…), a phrase begins and then goes from there, or else it ends and goes to there”.
Mientras la interpretación de Schnabel suele asemejarse al lenguaje, para Brendel la música no puede organizarse de esa manera. Ambos coinciden en que la continuidad es la base del fraseo: “The last note of one phrase is frequently the first note of the next”.
Otro punto en el que Schnabel y Brendel difieren es en el tempo. Mientras que Schnabel solía ir a los extremos en el tempo, Brendel busca una mayor variedad: “Dealing with tempo (…) there must be as much variety as possibly at the command of the player”.
Para Schnabel, en la mayoría de las composiciones para piano, el compositor quería que su música sonara como piano y nada más. Brendel opina lo contrario: "I would think, if I looked at the latent possibilities in most piano works, that piano pieces are rather reductions…
…They are usually reductions of musical ideas which belong to the orchestra, to chamber music, to the voice -whatever you name. A reduction so that one player, without having to compromise with others, can master them -at a price. I think the price should be as low as possible.”
A pesar de las discordancias que pudiera tener con Schnabel, sin haber sido su alumno, ni haberlo escuchado en vivo ni haberlo conocido, Brendel lo considera como uno de los grandes músicos con los que se identifica (“both in admiration and criticism”).

Hay varios puntos de vista en los que Brendel coincide con Schnabel. “Like Schnabel, I feel that analytic insights have a direct bearing on performance and that analysis should be the outcome of an intimate familiarity with the piece rather than an input of established concepts”.
Brendel y Schnabel consideran que es un error imaginar que todas las notas deban ser ejecutadas con la misma intensidad y ser claramente audibles. “Complete and permanent clarity of execution is a manner of playing which, instead of serving the music, is content with itself”.
“‘The performer’s inner ear hears everything twice: each little bit is mentally anticipated as well as checked out by later control.’If all goes well, these two perceptions are blended into one or, as Schnabel phased it: ‘The conception materializes and…
…the materialization re-dissolves into conception.’ An event as mysterious as parallel lines meeting in the infinite. If all went well, Schnabel made them meet.”

I think Frank Edwards needs to hire a team to do major work sanitising and building a better digital experience for his music, his digital trail and everything else in between

I say this out of need to the larger lesson to creatives, i'd hate to restrict this to Christians alone

I love Frank Edwards, his songs form a huge part of my morning worship routine. But for the past two weeks, I've been looking for a song that I used to play a lot in my first/second year of uni and couldn't find it until I searched a random part of the lyrics and went as far as..

The 6th page on Google search. Yes, that's how badly I wanted it.

Even when I found the name of the song, the song was available as a lyric video on YouTube and published by someone entirely different from who I wanted to give streaming dollars to, that's if it counts for much.

Hit another bump. I want to subscribe, and I realise there's over 11 Frank Edwards on YouTube. Each with huge and growing subscriber numbers, that was worrying.

It was not until this morning I found one with 250k subscribers and I thought... Ah this has to be him.

I search on Google for Frank Edwards and his entire discography isn't listed on Google and it in fact worried me.

Now I am moving to upset because this is someone I love deeply and hate to see how there's so much low hanging fruit that he isn't taking advantage of.

Open Question to fellow investors tracking Music Industry.

A business like Universal which controls more than 1/3rd of all published music globally is selling for less than 6x FY20 Sales.

Why are Indian businesses like Saregama / Tips selling for 11x, 20x their sales?

If I include all of the revenue generated by entire firm, its selling for ~4.5x FY20 Sales


Universal Listing Market Cap ~ 40 Billion USD
FY 20 Revenues ~ 8.87 B USD or 7.4B EUR

Catalogue of Music includes every international artist you can possibly name

Either Universal is grossly undervalued or Saregama/Tips are grossly overvalued.

So, today, for the first time in 25 (!) years of Apple, I downgraded. From the 2016 MacBook Pro to my 2013, which I had kept in a drawer...


It was pretty simple to do—Apple Time Machine backups let me do it with one click.

That first tweet captures, in two pictures, how badly Apple has “lost the plot” (to quote @wylieprof). On the right is the Apple MagSafe adapter, from 2013. On the left, what I had “upgraded” to.

Thanks, Apple! I really was nostalgic for worrying about yanking my computer off the table.

Oh and I really appreciated not knowing if my computer was charging. What was great was the little whoop sound you used, so that the speaker before me could be informed I was charging my laptop.

ugh i wanted to do a thread about the wars in Star Wars and how the two outlying wars (the clone wars in the prequels and the cold war/civil war in the sequels) are really weird but i don't feel like it any more.

my first argument is that the Clone Wars were a really complex morally gray moment in Star Wars canon in like, 5 different directions and I'd kind of like to know why Lucas did that.

especially with the direct line that's drawn in the OT with the allegory of WW2 and Vietnam with the rebels being the Vietnamese and the Empire being America. That...doesn't exist in the Clone Wars.

for starters: it's weird it's called the Clone Wars. I get why, because that's what Kenobi calls it in STAR WARS, but the clones are a small facet in the larger story of the war.

the clones basically only exist as a macguffin in AOTC that is...extremely confusing ultimately. Because if you accept that Sidious has this grand master plan to use this war to destabilize the Republic and form an Empire...it's way too complex.

It is said that the one who bears the dust thrown from the hoof of Gaumata on his head, as if taking a bath in the water of the teerth sthalam and getting rid of all sins.


Ved and all other Hindu scriptures venerate the cow. The Vedic dictionary, Nighantu, gives amongst other synonyms of 'Gau' [ or cow] the words 'Aghnya', 'Ahi', and 'Aditi'.

Yaska the vedic decoder and commentator on Nighantu, defines these as-

Aghnya —— the one that ought not to be killed
Ahi —— the one that must not be slaughtered.
Aditi —— the one that ought not to be cut into pieces.

These three names of cow signify that this is an animal which should not to be put to tortures. These words appear frequently throughout the Veda in context of the cow.

But in due course the falsehood of killing cows spread far and wide and they became even more deep rooted when western scholars with their half baked knowledge of Sanskrit transliterated these interpretations of commentaries of Sayanacharya ,

Choosing the Right JavaScript Framework

Thanks for joining me @pluralsight to talk about javascript frameworks. We had 150+ awesome questions, so I'll try to answer the ones I couldn't get to online right here in a tweet stream

Watch the video -->
https://t.co/G7zeiKhXme


Q. Do arrow functions really make dealing with JavaScript's "this" keywords easier?

A. Yes! When using arrow functions, the scope of "this" is effectively passed in from the outer scope. See here in this REPL

1/n


Q. Where does Polymer fit in? Is it considered a framework like the others?

A. @Polymer is an excellent way to create web components, which are ideal for creating sets of interactivity that can be shared in web apps.

2/n

Q. Have we gone framework crazy?

A. At one time, quite possibly. A few years back we literally had framework overload. I feel it really has solidified into a few very strong choices.

3/n

Q. [Is] there no more need for @polymer?

A. See my previous question on this ... but in general, I think there is a lot of room for Web Components with frameworks.

A THREAD ON @SarangSood

Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.

Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen

1. Keeps following volatility super closely.

Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.

Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.


2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.


3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result

He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.


4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega

Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.
