Eeee!

Eeee! <http://www.voxnovus.com/NM421/issue/postcard/13-12-13-Eeee.jpg>

Soprano Martha Dinklaker wasn't the world's greatest singer, but there was
one thing she could do that never failed to flabbergast her fans: shatter
glass with her voice. The conditions for this musical parlor trick were
actually pretty simple: take one singer with perfect pitch and a large lung
capacity ( i.e., Martha); add a crystal glass whose natural frequency of
vibration is a high E (1318 Hz); then have her sing that pitch. Forte! The
glass will resonate and, eventually, shatter. But it wasn't just glass that
Martha's vocal pipes could obliterate, which, to her immense dismay, she
found out one day while taking a break from ice skating on a pond of frozen
toxic waste tailings in order to belt out a little ditty for some onlookers
that featured one earsplittingly high E.

In Memoriam: D. Stanley Hasty

<http://www.voxnovus.com/member/pic/Stanley_Hasty.jpg>

My teacher, D. Stanley Hasty distinguished himself internationally as a
pedagogue as well as a performer. From 1943-68 he held the position of
principal clarinet in six major orchestras: the National Symphony Orchestra,
the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Baltimore
Symphony Orchestra, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and the Rochester
Philharmonic Orchestra. He was also on the faculty of a number of the
nation's premiere musical institutions including the Eastman School of
Music, the Juilliard School, the New England Conservatory, the Cleveland
Institute of Music and the Peabody Institute. His success as a pedagogue is
substantiated by his students, many of whom occupy a multitude of
distinguished positions in symphony orchestras and on university and
conservatory faculties throughout the United States. Stanley Hasty,
Professor Emeritus of Clarinet at the Eastman School of Music, died
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. He was 91 years old. "It is a unique legacy we
honor, intensely rational yet beautifully free; always in touch with that
lyric beauty that so moves the soul." -James M. Pyne
