The solo songs of Edward MacDowell : an examination of style and literary influence
No full textEdward MacDowell is widely recognized as America's first great native-born composer. His music has come to be characterized as being extremely lyrical and harmonically inventive. Solo songs constitute an overlooked area of MacDowell's output and no serious study has been undertaken of them to date. The goal of this dissertation is to obtain a more complete portrait of MacDowell through a detailed examination of his songs.Previously unstudied manuscripts and sketches from the MacDowell Collection of the Library of Congress provide important insights into his songwriting process. The choice of text proved to be such an important determinant in MacDowell's settings that the author has chosen to divide the songs into three stylistic groupings based primarily on MacDowell's selection of texts rather than on chronology.In MacDowell's first-period songs, he concentrated on setting German texts while living in Germany from 1880 to 1888. Poetry by Heine, Goethe, and Klopstock plays an important role in these songs, which are stylistically similar to the nineteenth-century Lied. Chromatic harmonies, frequent modulations, and active piano accompaniments characterize these songs.MacDowell's second-period songs, written between 1886 and 1890, use English texts and differ markedly from the earlier Lieder. While many of their texts (and consequently, best songs of this group show the development of MacDowell's characteristic harmonic language and lyricism.The second-period songs serve as a transition into MacDowell's final songwriting period (c. 1893-1901), during which he wrote his most successful works. The third-period songs are delineated by the use of original poetry and represent a synthesis of the first two periods. The chromaticism and active piano parts of the lieder are combined with the new lyricism of the second-period songs.Songwriting spans MacDowell's entire career and is evidence of the seriousness with which he viewed the medium. A thorough study of the songs, both published and unpublished, reveals a steady line of development throughout MacDowell's career, with many musical advances predicated by the text. This development, which closely mirrors similar advances in the piano music, is an important factor in MacDowell's entire creative output.Thesis (D.A.
Trichinella spiralis in sylvatic hosts from Prince Edward Island
No full textLarvae of Trichinella sp. were found in two of 208 red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and one of 125 coyotes (Canis latrans) obtained from trappers from Prince Edward Island (Canada) in 1995 and 1996. A polymerase chain reaction based DNA biotyping method revealed the larvae to be isolates of Trichinella spiralis. This is the first verified identification of T. spiralis in sylvatic hosts from Canada.LR: 20031114; PUBM: Print; JID: 0244160; ppublishSource type: Electronic(1

The effect of high air and water temperature on juvenile Mytilus edulis in Prince Edward Island, Canada
No full textMussel aquaculture on Prince Edward Island (PEI), Canada, is an important but relatively new industry. Although seed manipulation using hatcheries for mussel culture occurs on the west coast of North America, seed supply on the east coast of Canada, including Prince Edward Island (PEI), is based solely on wild collection. Two techniques for culling seed ( http://upei-resolver.asin-risa.ca?sid=SP:CABI&id=pmid:&id=&issn=0044-8486&isbn=&volume=243&issue=1%2f4&spage=185&pages=185-194&date=2005&title=Aquaculture%20&atitle=The%20effect%20of%20high%20air%20and%20water%20temperature%20on%20juvenile%20Mytilus%20edulis%20in%20Prince%20Edward%20Island%2c%20Canada.&aulast=LeBlanc&pid=%3Cauthor%3ELeBlanc%2c%20N%3bLandry%2c%20T%3bStryhn%2c%20H%3bTremblay%2c%20R%3bMcNiven%2c%20M%3bDavidson%2c%20J%3C%2Fauthor%3E%3CAN%3E20053018734%3C%2FAN%3E%3CDT%3EJournal%20article%3C%2FDT%3
Development of longline mussel farming and the influence of sleeve spacing in Prince Edward Island, Canada
No full textThis paper describes the historical development of blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) farming in Tracadie Bay (Prince Edward Island, Canada) and relates the spacing of suspended sleeves (SS) on longlines to seston uptake. From 1990 to 2001, mussel biomass in Tracadie Bay increased by a factor of four (from 1137 to 4743 t). By 2001, seston uptake rates were approximately three-fold water renewal rates, and harvest yields (kg sleeve−1) were significantly lower than in the early 1990s. A one-year field experiment was carried out to determine whether a change in SS could restore harvest yields. We found that SS (10, 20, 40, 60, 80 cm) had no significant effect on the condition index of mussels. However, high SS positively affected shell growth and abundance for small seeds that were densely packed within sleeves. A complete husbandry shift toward high SS and high seeding densities (within sleeves) may enhance farm productivity (production per unit of effort) and curtail seston uptake at the bay scale
