  Polish Music Journal 5.2.02 - Labunski: Poland's Contribution to Music
The first half of the 18th century was characterized in Poland by the growth of secular music, the further development of instrumental music and the shifting of art patronage from the court to the wealthy magnates and landlords.
This period was marked by the development of symphonic music and produced several distinguished composers: W³adys³aw ¯eleñski (1839-1920) chiefly known as the author of the opera "Goplana," and of symphonic and chamber music.
[12] Their music is remarkable for its model character and unusual scales, derived from Polish folk music; by its fresh and vigorous rhythm; by its humor and healthy objectivism, all in keeping with the spirit of the new Poland, a spirit of action, optimism and self-reliance.

 California Mission Music
The sacred music of California that remains in manuscript form is the most extensive and diverse body of plainsong and polyphonic music to survive from any of Spain's colonies in the contiguous forty-eight states.
Polyphonic music was also widely cultivated in other religious services, especially Vespers and Tierce for the patronal feast and for the dedication of a church, where the psalms and Magnificat are to be found in polyphony.
This music, which often presents translations of well known prayers such at the Pater noster and Salve regina, was used during processions, the recitation of the doctrina, the Rosary and during Benediction.

 The Moravian Music Foundation
These collections, which range from the 16th century to the present, were assembled by the Moravians, Protestant missionaries who came to Pennsylvania and North Carolina in the 18th century.
They sent for music from Europe, hand-copied what they could not purchase, composed both sacred and secular music, formed the first community orchestras and chamber music ensembles, and built the first organs and stringed instruments in the colonies.
The Moravian Music Foundation was founded in 1956 to be the custodian and curator of this music.

 Forrester Research: Technology research and advice.
The European physical music market is forecast to decline from €9.1 billion in 2006 to €7 billion in 2011, but music downloads to PCs and mobile phones will help the overall music market actually increase to nearly €11 billion.
Much of this will be straight substitution, particularly among young consumers, and will change the way they consume music — resulting in a shift of focus from albums to singles.
However, the market is set to expand rapidly, growing to 36 percent of all music sales by 2011, as long as suppliers are prepared to meet consumer demands for flexible, easy-to-use services with competitive pricing models.

 Jink & Diddle Scottish Fiddle School
The school, held in an intimate and peaceful mountain setting, is a unique opportunity to concentrate on Scottish fiddle music in general and strathspey playing in particular.
The great Scottish fiddlers of the 18th century could read and write music, and you should be prepared to read music, too, although there is also some playing by ear and a daily class on learning by ear.
It is not unusual for the Jink and Diddle classes to cover 60 or more tunes in a week, not to mention often playing the same tune as a strathspey, as a reel and as a march, sometimes even as a slow air.
