(Complete) Stories of Symphonic Music by Lawrence Gilman - lt
Backlog's growing... I hope I can listen to something later on today
Section 11
Interesting to hear Goethe's Zauberlehrling, a poem that probably every German has to learn by heart, in Englisch
You're really brave to take on the challenge to read the German piece

The notes:
- 0:50 I hear "zero", it is "scherzo" https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/scherzo?pronunciation&lang=en_us&dir=s&file=scherz02
- 1:10 I hear "sin giser", there is no such word in German at Goethe's time.
- 1:20 I hear "lieben", it must be "leben". "Lieben" means "to love", "leben" means "to live"
- 4:06 I hear "I had now had two" (first had too much)

Elgar footnote 48 has a character called Alice W N. There is a blank space between WN. How should I read. Alice W N or Alice W blank N.
Also the list 1 to 14 @ beginning has numbers like 3-4. Do I read that 3 to 4 or 3 4.
Walkula has to get slippers of Catherine the Great. The word for slippers is "tscherewitschki". Unable to find pronunciation. Tish ere wits chkey? Is my guess.

Hmm. My ebook reader shows it to me as W--n. A W N I'd just read as W N, I wouldn't say the word "blank" but put a tiny little pause between W and N. The em-dash - I don't know, I tend to mention it.

To me it looks pretty much as if those were the measures, so I'd probably say three fourths, or three eights, or four fourths etc.2839reader wrote: ↑May 15th, 2018, 1:12 pm Also the list 1 to 14 @ beginning has numbers like 3-4. Do I read that 3 to 4 or 3 4.
There is a thread for pronunciation help. One of the Russians here might be able to help you I am only German so I can't really help you on this one.2839reader wrote: ↑May 15th, 2018, 1:12 pm The word for slippers is "tscherewitschki". Unable to find pronunciation.

For Alice, I would say Alice W N.2839reader wrote: ↑May 15th, 2018, 1:12 pm Elgar footnote 48 has a character called Alice W N. There is a blank space between WN. How should I read. Alice W N or Alice W blank N.

As for the list, I think it might need someone with more musical knowledge than me to answer (that would be just about anyone). Looking at Wikipedia, it looks as though it refers to the time signature, which i believe would be read as "three-four" (but I think that varies according to country conventions... I'm pretty sure my daughter... a music teacher... would call it three fourths)
As for Catherine's slippers... we could ask in pronunciation help. Tovarisch might be able to help if he is around.
Edit: looks like Monica got there first, but we have similar ideas. WN was Winifred Norbury, a secretary. So, they were her initials... same thing with the other initials. Alice was Mrs. E. (Wikipedia again)

I could do section 12 on Dvorak.
I have a reference (see page 85) - do you want that in?
also, throughout, there are numbers of the pieces, given as (Op. 92) - just read that as O P 92?

Could listen to section 15. Ouh, what tragic story!
Were you tired when editing this, Lmnei? There are a couple of notes today:
Were you tired when editing this, Lmnei? There are a couple of notes today:
- 1:30 I hear Glazakoff, instead of Glazounoff
- 1:44 I hear expanory, should be explanatory
- 2:00 I hear Altman, should be Ataman (Ah-taah-mahn)
- 3:13 I hear Senka, was Stenka all the times before
- 4:02 I hear tremendolous, strings play tremolos
- 4:20 I hear accompiment; should be accompaniment
- 5:10 I hear "They arranged" - missing "are"
- 6:29 "and flowers" can be cut out, it is followed by the correct "and flower"
- 6:38 I hear "carved zone"?!
- 7:18 significance double, first one can be cut out
- 7:48 "chants antiphonally" double, first one can be cut out
