 The Charlie Chaplin Music Publishing Company
In 1916 some of his musical compositions ("two very bad songs," Chaplin later remarked) became the foundation of his own short-lived music publishing company.
It is significant to note that this musical venture, which bore Chaplin's name, preceded the Charlie Chaplin Studio by more than two years.
Like his under appreciated music, there is also an important business side to Chaplin which frequently is overlooked—again, due to his artistic ability, but also because his brother Sydney Chaplin is credited with much of the business innovation in the independent company formed by Charlie.

 "Radio Music Box" memo (1916/1920(?))
The purported text of the "Radio Music Box" memo -- which appears to have a gap in the middle -- was supplied by RCA, but, oddly, Archer reported that he never saw the actual memo, although he was shown a reply by Edward J. Nally dated November 8, 1916.
But, there is good evidence that in 1916 his thoughts were inspired by the daily broadcasts which had begun in the fall of 1916 over Lee DeForest's experimental "Highbridge" station, 2XG, which was also located in New York City.
The problem of transmitting music has already been solved in principle and therefore all the receivers attuned to the transmitting wave length should be capable of receiving such music.

 Max Reger Biography - famous Max Reger Classical collection and Max Reger Music Reviews.
Among a variety of orchestral works, including a piano concerto and a violin concerto, Reger's Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Mozart, an arrangement of his work of the same title for two pianos, is typical of his resourceful and sometimes complex use of the theme on which it is based.
Reger wrote a considerable amount of chamber music of all kinds, with a number of violin sonatas and other duo sonatas, as well as string quartets and works for other groups of players.
Reger's organ music offers a considerable challenge to performers and some works are said to have been composed as just such a challenge to his friend, the organist Karl Straube.

 INKPOT#64 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: SIBELIUS Everyman. Belshazzar's Feast. The Countess's Portrait (BIS)
The medievality of the morality play is captured, here in the 20th century, by the dark stretches of music, the ominous bell-tolling, even the chant-like singing and indeed, the use of the pipe organ.
Whenever they appear, the sisters grace the score with music of soothing strength, as when Faith manifests (No.12) in aid of Everyman - I guess the word to describe this music is Marian.
A melodrama is simply music to accompany the recitation of a poem - a natural thing to do if you ask me. Published only in 1994, this quiet melancholic piece is meant to "atmospherise" a combined poem by the Swedish poet Anna Maria Lenngren (1754-1817) and Finnish Zachris Topelius (1818-1898).

 Japan-in-America: Music
Japan figured quite frequently as a subject and inspiration for different types of popular music in early twentieth century America--compositions for solo piano, novelty songs, popular ballads, marches, and fox trots, even an occasional tango.
This was music written to be performed by professional enertainers as well as by amateurs, and it found its way into countless parlors and community halls.
Sometimes the "Japanese" quality of this music was limited to little more than a reference to "geisha" or to "Tokio" in the title or in the lyrics.

His melodic material is frequently reminiscent of English folksong, and the music is predominantly peaceful, soft, and slow, but not without undercurrents of melancholy or angst.
Some have derisively referred to this style of music as the “cow pat” school, claiming it’s like a musical depiction of a cow standing in a pasture looking over a fence.

 Henri Dutilleux Biography - famous Henri Dutilleux Classical collection and Henri Dutilleux Music Reviews.   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The French composer Henri Dutilleux, although individual in his approach, nevertheless follows the traditions of Ravel and Debussy, seeking clarity and economy in his musical language and an enjoyment of varied timbres.
In his two symphonies Dutilleux explores novel combinations of sound, in the first contrasting groups and single instruments and in the second dividing the orchestra into a smaller chamber group, separate from the larger body.
Similar qualities are to be heard in the chamber music of Dutilleux, with its idiomatic use of wind instruments, and in the string quartet of 1976, Thus the Night.

One of the most prolific and beloved artists in California’s music history, singer-songwriter Edward “Lalo” Guerrero, died peacefully last week at a convalescent home in Rancho Mirage, not far from his Cathedral City house.
Guerrero laid much of the groundwork for Mexican-American music with his 1940s trio, Los Carlistas, blending popular music from both sides of the border.
Lalo said the old sheet music was “long gone,” but I locked myself in a room for two weeks, transcribing from scratchy old 78-rpm records.
