Excerpt: Charles Moyer (1866 June 2, 1929) was an American labor leader and president of the Western Federation of Miners (WFM) from 1902 to 1926. He led the union through the Colorado Labor Wars, was kidnapped and accused of murdering an ex-governor of the state of Idaho, and shot in the back during a bitter copper mine strike. He also was a leading force in founding the Industrial Workers of the World, although he later denounced the organization. Little is known about Moyer prior to 1893. He was born near Ames, Iowa, and his mother died when he was just a year old. He attended public school but left after the fourth grade. Moyer headed West in 1872 and found work as a cowboy in Wyoming. He returned East in 1885 and settled in Chicago, Illinois. He committed robbery, and served a year in the Illinois State Penitentiary. After his release, Moyer became a miner at the Homestake Mine in Lead, South Dakota, and joined the Lead City Miners' Union. In 1893, the Lead City Miners' Union was one of several unions which formed the Western Federation of Miners. Moyer was elected to the Executive Board of the WFM in 1900. After President Ed Boyce declined to run again in 1902, Moyer was elected his successor. Moyer was strongly committed to industrial unionism, and pushed the WFM to organize both underground and surface miners as w...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=4455783 ... Read more

Excerpt: Johann Peter Schickele (born July 17, 1935) is an American composer, musical educator and parodist. He is best known for his comedy music albums featuring his music that he presents as music written by the fictional composer P. D. Q. Bach. Schickele was born in Ames, Iowa, to Alsatian immigrant parents, and brought up in Washington, D.C., and Fargo, North Dakota, where he studied composition with Sigvald Thompson. Graduating from Fargo Central High in 1952 and then graduating with a degree in music from Swarthmore College in 1957, he was the first student at Swarthmore and the only student in his class with such a degree. He graduated from the Juilliard School with an M.S. in musical composition; in the ensuing years he has frequently cited Roy Harris as the most influential of his teachers. Schickele has composed more than 100 original works for symphony orchestra, choral groups, chamber ensemble, voice, film (e.g. Silent Running and animated adaptations of Where the Wild Things Are and In the Night Kitchen), and television. He has also written music for school bands, as well as a number of folk musicians, most notably Joan Baez (for whom he also orchestrated and arranged three albums during the mid-1960s, Noël, Joan, and Baptism). He has also written a number of musicals, and has organized numerous concert performances as both musical director and performer. Schickele is active on the international and North American concert circuit. Schickele's musical creations have won him multiple awards. His e...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=39082 ... Read more

(Score and Parts)
The Latin term quodlibet may be translated as whatever you please, but in the musical world it has come to mean a work in which themes from different pieces, often by different composers, are combined in ways not originally intended. This Schickele quartet is relatively easy and playful containing a collage of more than two dozen melodies by Brahms, Bach, Haydn and more. The beginning and end of the piece are Bach’s Passacaglia in C minor for organ. For intermediate ensembles. Duration: 6 ... Read more

Here's an interesting new take by P.D.Q. Bach on a traditional Russian folk song. Written for the unusual instrumentation of piccolo, flute, oboe, English horn, two bassoons, and contrabassoon, there is a descending grunt added to the serious fugue in the song, giving it a complicated and amusing twist. When the theme is played inverted or backwards, the grunts follow suit! Fugue of the Volga Boatmen, S. 1-2-3-Grunt is one of very few new publications from P.D.Q. Bach, so this piece is a special opportunity. For high school-level players. Duration: 2 40 ... Read more

Composer Peter Schickele was trained as a bassoonist, and in this piece, his love of blues and folk music is very conspicuously integrated with classical tradition. Delta Jukebox was inspired by the Mississippi River Delta, thought to be the birthplace of blues, but its style is that of contemporary blues, rather than an imitation of the early blues of the Deep South. Its premiere took place in 2002 at the Zipper Concert Hall in Los Angeles. For college-level or professional players. Duration: 10 30 ... Read more

Product Description
In his early twenties, Peter Schickele was profoundly affected by a performance of Boulez’s Second Piano Sonata, changing his impression of contemporary music forever. According to Schickele, these Four Pieces for Piano were one of the earliest manifestations of that reckoning. [They] have many of the hallmarks of the so-called post-Webern style: wide skips, extreme range, and no regular beat, but, unlike Boulez’s sonata, those pieces constantly flirt with old-fashioned tonality and jazzy rhythms. For advanced players. ... Read more
