Curtis Institute of Music

Il Curtis Institute of Music è un conservatorio privato di Filadelfia in Pennsylvania, che offre corsi di studio di alto livello (Bachelor of Music) per gli strumenti musicali, la composizione ed il canto. Storia Fu fondato nel 1924 da Mary Louise Curtis Bok, che le diede il nome di suo padre, Cyrus Curtis. Dopo essersi consultata con alcuni amici musicisti, fra cui Josef Hofmann e Leopold Stokowski su come aiutare meritevoli giovani musicisti, Bok acquistò tre palazzetti presso Rittenhouse Square, a pochi isolati dalla Academy of Music, allora sede della Philadelphia Orchestra, e li ristrutturò unendoli in un unico edificio. Ingaggiò eminenti docenti di arti dello spettacolo e nel 1927 fece un lascito di 12 milioni di dollari, equivalente a 175 milioni di dollari del 2020. Ammissione Inizialmente il Curtis funzionò come una scuola per la formazione dei musicisti per la Philadelphia Orchestra, nonostante fossero presenti corsi per compositori, organisti, pianisti, chitarristi e cantanti. Tutti gli studenti sono ammessi con una borsa di studio completa che copre tutti i costi e gli esami d'ammissione sono particolarmente competitivi. Con l'eccezione dei compositori, organisti, pianisti e chitarristi, il numero degli studenti ammessi è quello necessario a formare un'orchestra sinfonica ed una compagnia d'opera. Di conseguenza, gli studenti iscritti sono fra i 150 ed i 175. È una delle istituzioni didattiche più selettive del mondo, con una percentuale di ammissioni fra il 4 ed il 5 percento dei richiedenti.

W 1943 r. grono pedagogiczne zasilili pianista Mieczysław Horszowski, skrzypkowie Ivan Galamian i William Primrose oraz wiolonczelista Grigorij Piatigorski. Curtis Institute of Music jednocześnie kształci 150–170 studentów, głównie muzyków orkiestrowych, w tym dla Orkiestry Filadelfijskiej. Nowo przyjmowanym studentom stawia bardzo wysokie wymagania.

Italian Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Italian Lake is a public park located at 3rd and Division Streets in the Riverside neighborhood within the Uptown section of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. History The 9.5-acre (3.8 ha) park was a side project to the William Penn High School constructed in the midst of the City Beautiful Movement and was designed by Warren Manning. The Graham-McKee estate donated the acreages of former swampland in 1918, and construction began and was completed ten years later. Harrisburg resident and hotelier Patricio Rossi (1852–1925 and anglicized to Patrick Russ) was attributed for the naming of the park, as he owned a nearby lodge directly west on Front Street nicknamed the "Italian" Hotel, from which the area came to be synonymous by. Historically in the winter, if the southern end of the lake would freeze enough, the Harrisburg Bureau of Fire would shovel and then squirt more water so the lake could be used for ice skating. By the 1980s, the park was later restored to its mid-century grandeur. The lake is surrounded by antique-style streetlights, textured walkways, and formal gardens maintained in the Italian Renaissance-style. Features of the park include a Japanese-style bridge representing harmony between nature and man and a stage for public events, and the Dauphin County Veteran's Memorial Obelisk formerly placed on State Street in front of the Pennsylvania State Capitol. The lake also features a classical-style fountain formerly owned by Milton Hershey entitled The Dance of Eternal Spring, designed by Italian sculptor Giuseppe Donato with three dancing nymphs representing art, music, and dance and modeled after local model Amanda Straw. Outdoor concerts, plays, town-hall style events, and pop-up markets are held at the park during the summer months. References External links Italian Lake Park Christmas at Italian Lake

James Beck Round Barn

The James Beck Round Barn was an historic round barn that was located in Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. It stood for seventy-five years, but it was leveled after sustaining severe damage to the roof during a thunderstorm in 1984. The site was then delisted in 1986. History The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is currently home to more than 150 round barns and similar (i.e., octagonal) structures, the construction of which has spanned the course of nearly 200 years. Found across fifty-four of the state's sixty-seven counties, three such buildings have existed in Centre County. Two of these were registered as places of historical significance: the Neff Round Barn, located west of Centre Hall, and the James Beck Round Barn, east of Centre Hall. The Beck Round Barn was built in 1913 by Aaron Thomas, who built the Calvin Neff Round Barn in Potter Township in 1910. The Beck property stood in Penns Valley near East Penns Canal, 6.7 miles from Centre Hall on the north side of Route 192. Like the Neff, it was a true round barn, i.e., no angles featured in the construction of its (circumferential) perimeter. The Beck measured seventy feet in diameter and fifty feet in height, had a conical roof with four gabled dormers and a cupola. Its interior had two levels, a lower cattle floor and a mow floor above, and a central silo. The unpainted exterior was clad in vertical siding on the ground floor and horizontal on the upper. Description Local-area historian Harry Ward, board president of the Penns Valley Area Historical Museum Association, describes the barn's construction: "The top story was supported by timbers radiating outward from a central silo and resting on three concentric sills, which were each laminated from eight boards bent into a curve after soaking in water. Tapered radial rafters supported the shingled roof, which featured four windowed dormers. The peak of the roof featured a cupola, which was later replaced by a modern ventilator, and the central silo was removed." The James Beck Round barn had, at one time, been in the ownership of Ward's great-grandparents. References
