"Taurus" is an instrumental by American rock band Spirit, recorded in November 1967 by guitarist/singer Randy California. The recording was released in 1968 on the band's debut album, Spirit.[1][2] It is perhaps best known for having similarities with the 1971 Led Zeppelin song "Stairway to Heaven", in which guitarist Jimmy Page used an opening acoustic guitar arpeggio bearing a resemblance to the instrumental without any legal permission from the band.[3]

April 15, 2009 at 09:46 PM  The discussion on another thread regarding Bach's music opens another subject area. Bach certainly autographed a large number of his works with a reference to God, but I find it odd that music which has no text (as in the sonatas/partitas discussed on another thread) can be identified as religious in nature simply because it was written by Bach. Bach certainly wrote works that were not written for the church (his gig though was as a church musician). But can we identify his instrumental works that were religious or non-religious simply by hearing their melody or harmony--or can we hear his intent because of voice leading? That interpretation can certainly leave the door open for many unintended consequences--some of which people (and some churches) are grappling with on a weekly basis. If we allow that some instrumental music can be identified as religious (or referencing God), then we also have instrumental music that is non-religious or pagan. Taking that thought process further, we then have music that must have other intrinsic qualities also, such as instrumental music that is inherently good or evil. Hummmm... slippery slope indeed.

April 15, 2009 at 10:13 PM  music is music. there is no christian music. no secular music. there are christian lyrics and secular lyrics. but also consider that if God created everyone in his image with the capacity to also create, then is everything not also spiritual?

April 16, 2009 at 05:24 AM  In my late teens I was a reborn christian (nobody is perfect ;-). I played electric guitar in my church band, it was in the 70s. Then they told me not to play Santana tunes, because Santana was then a dedicated follower of some obscure guru. They argued that his music was evil. I continued to play Santana songs (to great sucess) and explained that through my christian mind, soul and fingers this evil heathen music gets transformed into sacred music, inspired by the holy spirit. This experience was one reason for me to gradually become unable to take religion for serious.

Btw, a lot of the most beautiful baroque music uses religious themes and inspiration. The music is still alive and fresh, but the spiritual background is outdated. (I prefer instrumental music, partly because many of the words used in baroque oratorios kind of offend me.) It is significant that this music makes no difference between glorifying a secular or a ("the" ;-) divine lord, it's only a matter of who payed for the composer's job. So it is obvious that the music itself contains no spirituality in whatever sense, even if there may be some elements interpreted as symbols.

Is there any truth in these equivalences? I really don't think so. Indeed, sometimes evil can lurk hidden by extreme beauty. Still, there is a social conditioning that leads us to think good = beautiful, ugly = wicked.

When I heard Adagio for Strings for the fist time it was a spiritual experience (not just an emotional experience). In Christian terminology the Holy Spirit ministered to my spirit through the music. I have found that God loves me and desires to reveal Himself and His love to me in many ways. I just wish I paid more attention sometimes.

April 17, 2009 at 05:18 PM  Hitler did paint, and fancied himself as an artist, and there are paintings of his that survive. In fact, I heard on the news that a couple of his 1914 landscapes are being actioned off (If I heard correctly, starting at around $5,000). I've seen reproductions of some of his paintings in books. His paintings are neither good nor evil; they're just lousy. He did like Wagner (and Wagner was a rabid anti-Semite). Does that mean Wagner's music is evil? Maybe why so much of the discussion of Bach as the prime example of "good" or religious music is obviously because that's what inspired him and the church is what he wrote for. That religious "style" (including classic 4-part hymn harmonies and counterpoint) is certainly infused in his more purely instrumental writing. But I think that just as "beauty is in the eye of the beholder," one can make the case that "good and evil are in the ear of the listener." No?

I think that this goes to the larger question and long-standing debate about program music. That is, can purely instrumental music convey a specific story or scene, etc.? And do we get, if we are not told, what the composer had in mind, and if not, are we missing much? Various examples come to mind...

Then there is music that is not necessarily evil, but more of a response to evil, music that communicates spiritual suffering. This is just my personal opinion (don't flame me if you disagree) but I would put some of Shostakovich's music in this category. I think it was the 5th symphony that I played in my orchestra last season; that was a piece that for some reason made me feel heavily burdened, almost oppressed. I suppose that this could be subjective and the same music could cause joy in another person, but not in me.

Just a few months prior to this story, the sales and customer service teams at US Mortgages were overwhelmed by the number of leads the organization was generating. Leadership grew frustrated with the lack of timely response and lost opportunities.

Before US Mortgages partnered with us, their internal team relied mostly on traditional methods to generate leads: TV, radio ads, and word-of-mouth. Upon learning more, we discovered that we were tasked with the challenge of building strategies to grow four different pipelines: marketing, sales, fulfillment, and retention.

Additionally, we found that the lead generation team were accustomed to following up with all potential borrowers manually. This typically meant taking calls on their office phones without knowing where the caller was calling from, and there was no logging of the outcome of their calls in a centralized place. As a result, there was no lead prioritization or timely follow up, and many leads began to fall through the cracks.

The lack of standardized processes led to no insight in regards to qualified leads, and the team was unable to track attribution and sales (in the form of closed mortgage loans). Ultimately, the amount of loans being worked on and funded dropped dramatically.

Nevertheless, US Mortgages continued to grow at an exponential rate to keep up with the number of leads generated as a result of marketing efforts. It was clear that thorough training and onboarding were necessary to get new loan officers and customer service representatives (CSRs) up to speed. We would also need to tackle teaching the sales team how to prioritize and follow up with leads in a timely manner, as it is very common to generate non-quality leads in the mortgage lending industry. Lastly, the team needed a way to prove their efforts were paying off by gathering meaningful data.

In order to do this, we had to refine their lead sources to properly record attribution, accurately represent where their leads were in the buying cycle, and provide insights into lead prioritization. Segmentation lists, custom properties, and setting up call and meeting types were a must. We also set goals for their new team by creating a CSR ownership property to track the number of transfers to loan officers. Moreover, leveraging sales and deal automation were of utmost importance.

In the spirit of simplifying the process as much as possible, we supported the development of email templates for each LO to improve follow-up times. Templates were developed for different stages in the sales process, and the team quickly adopted these emails as they saw the benefits of using their own standardized templates.

We went from not being able to track lead response times at all, to identify that it took days to respond to new leads. Now we are down to .65 days in our response times due to refining our processes and implementing the right tools for both the CSRs and Loan Officers. (click image to expand)

While it's not a single word, sometimes this is referred to as "restating the melody." The section itself would still be called a solo, if one player is featured, or an instrumental break, if it's an ensemble.

This piece sets the melody from a song by Guillaume de Machaut (c. 1300-1377), a virelai for which he wrote both the verse and the music. The piece re-presents the melody, and evokes the spirit of the verse too, perhaps, on anachronistic instruments (modern flute and piano) and refracted through a vastly different, twenty-first-century sensibility.

Led by Rebecca Holt, the Handbell Ensemble rehearses on Saturday mornings and plays in worship services approximately once a month during the program year. Moderate music-reading ability is helpful and a sense of rhythm and coordination important. No audition is required. The Ensemble is open to eighth grade students and older. Successful handbell choirs always have a sense of group spirit and mutual support with regular attendance at rehearsals crucial.

Dr. Louer is in her twelfth year as the Director of Music and Fine Arts at Second Presbyterian Church where she leads a comprehensive program for children and adults, providing vocal and instrumental opportunities for education, ministry, and performance. Dr. Louer conducts the 70-voice Sanctuary Choir and the Beecher Singers (a professional chamber choir) and oversees a talented music staff that directs children and youth music, handbell ensemble, wind ensemble, and a vibrant fine arts area. 2351a5e196
