Misc

Zen Virtual PianoでMiscのピアノ楽譜を見つけましょう。 Misc is a catch-all category for medleys, ringtones, polkas, Irish tunes and anthems. In music, a medley is a piece composed from parts of existing pieces played one after another, sometimes overlapping. Medleys are common in popular music, where most of them are songs rather than instrumentals, and a medley is also the most common form of overture for musical theatre productions. Borrowed parts, rearranged, can become something that sounds new, and a familiar tune can be heard afresh in a new order. The Nokia tune is a phrase from a composition for solo guitar, Gran Vals, composed in 1902 by the Spanish classical guitarist and composer Francisco Tárrega, and it has been associated with the Finnish corporation Nokia since the 1990s. In 1992 Nokia used a 1989 rendition of Gran Vals by the Czech guitarist Lubomír Brabec as the background music in a commercial for the Nokia 1011, and the excerpt includes the phrase that would later be used for the ringtone. A phrase from a guitar piece that ended up as a phone ringtone shows how a small fragment can come to carry an identity of its own. The polka is a dance style and genre of dance music originating in nineteenth-century Bohemia, now part of the Czech Republic. Though generally associated with Czech and Central European culture, it is popular throughout Europe and the Americas. By 1835 the dance had spread to the ballrooms of Prague, by 1839 to Vienna, and in 1840 it was introduced in Paris by Raab, a Prague dance instructor. A dance carried from Bohemian ballrooms to Vienna and Paris shows how a local style can become a fashion across borders. Irish dance music is isometric and built around patterns of bar-long melodic phrases akin to call and response; a common pattern is A phrase, B phrase, A phrase, partial resolution, A phrase, B phrase, A phrase, final resolution. While airs are usually played singly, dance tunes are usually played in medleys of two to four tunes called sets. Dance tunes gathered into sets tie the Irish tradition back to the medley, where the sequence matters as much as the single tune. An anthem is a musical composition of celebration, usually used as a symbol for a distinct group, particularly the national anthems of countries; originally, and in music theory and religious contexts, an anthem is a short sacred choral work, still frequently seen in Sacred Harp and other types of shape note singing. A word that names both a national symbol and a short sacred choral work shows how one term can serve a group’s identity in very different settings.
