# Frank Damrosch

Frank Heino Damrosch (June 22, 1859 – October 22, 1937) was a German-born American music conductor and educator. In 1905, Damrosch founded the New York Institute of Musical Art, a predecessor of the Juilliard School.

## Life and career

Damrosch was born on June 22, 1859, in Breslau, Silesia, the son of Helene von Heimburg, a former opera singer, and conductor Leopold Damrosch. He came to the United States with his father, brother, conductor Walter Damrosch, and sister, music teacher Clara Mannes, in 1871. His parents were Lutheran.
He had studied music in Germany under Dionys Pruckner. He studied in New York under Ferdinand von Inten. He also studied in Europe under Moritz Moszkowski. He had originally intended to adopt a business career, and to that end went to Denver, Colorado, but the musical impulse proved too strong, and, in 1884, he was an organist, conductor of the Denver Chorus Club, and supervisor of music in the public schools.
For some years he was chorus master at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. He also conducted the Mendelssohn Glee Club from 1885 to 1887. In 1892, he organized the People's Singing Classes, and he was also instrumental in founding the Musical Art Society of New York.
In 1897, he became supervisor of music in the public schools in New York. In 1898 Damrosch succeeded his brother Walter as conductor of the Oratorio Society, which he directed until 1912. During his career, he and his sister Clara Damrosch also taught at the Veltin School for Girls in Manhattan.
In 1905, he founded and became director of the New York Institute of Musical Art, with the hopes of reproducing the quality of instruction found in European conservatories. In 1926, the Institute of Musical Art merged with the Juilliard Graduate School to form what is today Juilliard School. Damrosch's pupils included William Howland, long-time head of the music department at the University of Michigan, and the prodigy pianist Hazel Scott.
Damrosch died in New York City on October 22, 1937, aged 78. Damrosch Park, part of New York's Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, is named in honor of the Damrosch family.

# Laila Hirvisaari

Laila Ellen Kaarina Hirvisaari (7 June 1938 – 16 June 2021), also known as Laila Hietamies, was a Finnish author and writer. By 2008, more than four million copies of her works had been sold.

## Biography

When Laila Hirvisaari was three years old, her father Aarne died in the Continuation War between Finland and the Soviet Union, so she had no memories of him. After the war, she and her family were evacuated first to Lappeenranta and later to the western part of Finland.
In 1958, she married Heikki Hietamies, who later also became a well-known Finnish author. He is also known for presenting the Tangomarkkinat ("Tango fair"), a major tango competition (1985–1999).
Laila Hietamies's first novel Lehmusten kaupunki ("City of the Lindens") was published in 1972 and began a series of novels about Lappeenranta; the seventh part was published in 2004. Hietamies wrote many other novel series, mostly about Karelia and the consequences of the wars of Finland in the 1940s. She wrote also books about a Russian princess, Sonja, during the Russian Revolution.
On 9 December 2004, Laila Hietamies, along with her three cousins, changed their name back to the maiden name Hirvisaari and from then on, her books were published under that name.
Hirvisaari received many respected Finnish literature awards but never the most prestigious one, the Finlandia Prize. Her novel about Catherine the Great] (Minä, Katariina), however, was nominated for the Finlandia in 2011.
Hirvisaari wrote 34 novels and many short stories and plays. A movie was based on her novel Hylätyt talot, autiot pihat ("Abandoned houses, empty yards") in 2000. Several of her books have been translated into other languages:

# Shui Xian

Shui Xian (traditional/simplified Chinese: 水仙, pinyin: shuǐxiān) is a cultivar of Camellia sinensis (cv. Wuyi Narcissus) as well as an oolong tea traditionally from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, China. The infused color is a deep amber which is characteristic for many other Wuyi oolong teas. This tea is also grown in Taiwan and Guangdong.

## Varieties

* Lao Cong Shui Xian or Aged Shui Xian (老欉水仙茶): A Shui Xian made from old bushes that may be as old as 200 years. The taste and appearance will signify it as an even darker Oolong. According to Chen De Hua, Lao Cong Shui Xian refers to tea bushes that are at least 50 years old. These older bushes produce a distinct aroma, setting them apart from regular Shui Xian (also known as Da Zong Shui Xian). The unique fragrance, often called ‘Cong Wei,’ comes from the woody notes of the bush’s trunk and branches, combined with the surrounding environment’s ecological characteristics.
* Zhangping Shui Xian (漳平水仙茶): A Shui Xian bush that is grown in Zhangping, Longyan, Fujian province and is typically processed as a green oolong.
