In 1694, he wrote one such piece, titled <em>Te Deum &amp; Jubilate for Voices and Instruments made for St. Cecilia’s Day 1694</em>. The landmark work sets an English translation of the St. Ambrose Hymn and revolutionized church music with its scoring for violins, viola, basso continuo, and two trumpets, with soloists and choir.</p> <p></div></div></div> Thu, 15 Dec 2016 20:50:23 +0000 Ray Heigemeir 116545 at https://library.stanford.edu Introducing the Bear Family Records collection https://library.stanford.edu/blogs/stanford-libraries-blog/2016/12/introducing-bear-family-records-collection <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Founded by Richard Weize in 1975, the German re-issue label Bear Family Records has been a leader in reissuing lavishly produced box sets of American roots music, with a particular focus on American country music (and related genres) from the 1920s through the 1980s.   Bear Family’s box sets are impeccably curated, with recordings sourced from the best known copies, or master tapes whenever possible.  The reissued recordings are accompanied by extensively researched discographies and book-length liner notes.

He dabbled in a number of things (among them: Communism, novel-writing, Abstract Expressionist painting, psychotherapy) but, over time, it has become clear that Kees best made a name for himself through poetry. </p> </div></div></div> Wed, 30 Nov 2016 17:42:09 +0000 Erin L.
