Orchestras by Kyla Pulce https://padlet.com/kylapulce/h0of6vawclgi Orchestras and what they are playing this season. Also, how it relates to me. en-us 2017-09-22 16:49:13 UTC 2023-12-20 14:06:14 UTC hello@padlet.com 0 Intro kylapulce https://padlet.com/kylapulce/h0of6vawclgi/wish/190216962  Orchestras are classically refined and known for playing Western Musical canon pieces. I chose to look into the Juneau Symphony in Alaska and the Baton Rouge Symphony Orchestra as my main point of focus. The Baton Rouge Symphony Orchestra (BRSO) typically plays classical pieces, as is shown by their "Bach-tober" fest. However, they do occasionally step out of the norms in the sense that they have nontraditional venues. This Bachtoberfest, they are performing at the Capital Park Museum. The Juneau Symphony is great at combining modern classical music and works of western musical canon. The Juneau Symphony performs pieces that are still classical, but untraditional, such as their tribute to James Bond. I would love to see the Juneau Symphony's performance of "Shaken Not Stirred: The Music of James Bond". I have always liked the instrumental pieces of the James Bond movies, it would be great to hear them live.]]> 2017-09-22 16:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kylapulce/h0of6vawclgi/wish/190216962 Quote 2 kylapulce https://padlet.com/kylapulce/h0of6vawclgi/wish/190223939 "Although the originators of American literature courses and textbooks were not formally assembling a canon, they were doing so indirectly by selecting the works to be taught."
     --Jordan Bates

This gives an interesting insight on how certain canon is made and the difference between literary canon and musical canon.

When we work to understand the social contexts from which great works of music arise, we can engage with it in a way that is both empowering and inclusive."
