Hauppauge teacher named NYS Art Educator of the Year

By Nicole Geddes Bretton Woods and Pines elementary school teacher Elizabeth Anziano was named the 2016 New York State Art Educator of the Year.

The Hauppauge teacher said she has experienced a lot in her 30-year journey as an art educator, and it helped fuel her passionate love of art, which she passes down to future generations.

“The best part about teaching is working with the students,” Anziano said in a phone interview. Anziano said one of her goals as a teacher is to reveal every student’s inner Da Vinci, and her passion for art and teaching is evident through her students.

“Ms. A. is the nicest teacher,” Wesley, one of her students, said. “I wish we could have art class every day. We always learn the neatest things in art, and Ms. A. makes it fun.”

Colton, another student of hers, agreed.

“Ms. Anziano is the greatest art teacher; I never want her class to end,” he said. “I like art class with Ms. A. more than I like recess, because we do really cool things in art.”

Michael, a fourth-grade student, also shares the opinion that art is more enjoyable than other parts of the school day that are traditionally more popular “I never thought that art could be as fun as gym,” he said. “Ms. A. is a really good artist and she teaches us how to be really good artists too. She shows us techniques to get better.”

Anziano said she enjoys telling her students

stories of famous artists, like Pablo Picasso.

“I make sure to tell them that it was just the tip [of the ear],” she said while speaking about Picasso’s famous ear story. She also said she tells students about tests Picasso had to take when he was a student.

He finished in one week what took some three months,” she said.“Everyone loves to hear stories.” Hauppauge Superintendent of schools Dennis O’Hara spoke highly of Anziano’s accomplishments at the district.

“After having had the opportunity and pleasure to visit Ms. Anziano’s classroom, and watch her interact with students, I am not surprised to learn of her special recognition,” O’Hara said in a statement. “She is most deserving, and we are most fortunate to have Ms. Anziano teaching our students.”

The teacher said her mother helped inspire her love of art.

“When I was young, I brought home a fourth-grade project,” she said. “I had to draw a deer. My mother drew the most perfect deer and I knew right then that that was what I wanted to do.”

Anziano received a Bachelors of Arts at Ohio State University,and started out working with the J. Paul Getty Trust, a cultural and philanthropic institution in a joint venture with The Metropolitan Museum of Art, located in Los Angeles.

Along the way, she met Leilani Duke and was introduced to discipline-based art education, which is a style of teaching comprised of arts production, arts history and culture, criticism and aesthetics. Eventually, Anziano

elizabeth Anziano smiles with one of her art students. joined the registrar staff of the New-York Historical Society museum where she had the chance to work with newly discovered American Art collections like John James Audubon.

Anziano said. “One of my favorite artists is Georgia O’Keefe, whose landscape paintings displays colors of purple to magenta.”

Anziano said Mary Lou Cohalan, direc-

tor of Islip Art Museum, suggested that she teach art, as she had never thought of it herself. Subsequently, an after-school arts program was started at the museum which Anziano taught while earning a Master of Arts in teaching at Dowling College.

“Art doesn’t just imitate life — it is life!”

Anziano said.

Dog rescued from cesspool in Kings Park By victoria espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com

Serving our community for over 90 years Family owned and operated

Suffolk County Police officers rescued a 6-year-old male Goldendoodle from an abandoned cesspool in Kings Park Tuesday night, Oct. 27.

Boris Avezov was outside Superior Ice Rink on Indian Head Road, walking with his dog Poofa at approximately 7:30 p.m., when the dog pulled his leash away from his owner to chase a rabbit. Poofa then fell into a 16-foot abandoned cesspool located behind the ice-skating rink, where he remained for about an hour as officers from Emergency Services worked to free him.

Officers Tom Russo, Mike Cocia and Lance Prager were lowered into the cesspool using a mechanical pulley system.

They were then able to adapt a sked, a piece of equipment normally used to rescue people, to save the dog. Officers Glen Baillargeon, Gerry Sheridan and Mike Simpson were also involved in the rescue.

Poofa and the officers were not harmed.

Avezov, of Bellmore, was waiting for his children who were ice-skating at the rink.

Smithtown center aims at drug treatment, education

By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com One Smithtown establishment is making sure it’s offering as many resources as possible to residents of all ages in the area who are struggling with drug and alcohol abuse.

Horizons Counseling and Education Center, located on East Main Street, is a not-for-profit organization that has been creating treatment and education programs for more than 30 years.

The organization offers daytime and evening counseling groups, prevention specialists, parenting programs, student programs and more.

Matthew Neebe, director at Horizons, said the center has worked with several evidencebased education programs to help students, teachers and educators at Smithtown, Kings Park and Commack school districts better understand why kids turn to drugs and how they can prevent the trend from continuing.

“We focus on the potential negative consequences of substance abuse and the risks with it,” Neebe said in a phone interview.

Horizons has a satellite site set up at Hauppauge school district, where they have staff members occupy a classroom a few days a week to offer treatment and prevention services to students. The satellite site has existed for more than 10 years.

Neebe said the not-for-profit tries to develop and strengthen healthy coping skills in students, as school can be a stressful time, and it’s important for kids to find a

“A lot of students take advantage of the programs,” the director said. “A lot of students attend counseling groups and find

healthy ways to manage their stress.”

Resources like these are important, as the rise in opioid abuse continues throughout Long Island.

Suffolk County has statistically been one of the greatest areas of concern in New York for heroin and opioid deaths in recent years, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Tim Sini said the county has had more than 100 opioid-related overdoses for several consecutive years.

The issue is not just in New York. According to the CDC, from 2005 to 2014, drug overdose deaths have risen by 144 percent to 2,300 deaths in New York and 58 percent to 47,055 deaths in the nation.

Neebe also talked about parent and significant other programs, résumé development programs to help any former users who are struggling with employment, Narcan training and other counseling courses.

Parenting programs include courses in discipline, encouragement, study habits and a course for when children are refusing treatment. Prevention specialists at Horizon offer many different youth programs, as well as courses on positive action, life skills, anger management and more.

Councilwoman wants to grow NYS crop of organ donors

By ReBecca anzel Registered organ donors are hard to come by in New York state compared to the rest of the United States, and for one elected official in Brookhaven, that’s not going to cut it.

Brookhaven Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) did not hesitate when her friend Tom D’Antonio said he needed a kidney. She decided right then, at the Huntington Lighthouse Music Festival in Huntington Harbor in September 2015, that she would share her spare.

She underwent comprehensive medical testing at the end of the next month to determine if she would be a viable donor — a blood test, chest X-ray, electrocardiogram, CT scan, MRI, psychological evaluation and cancer screening, to name a few.

“It’s the ultimate physical you’re ever going to have, and by the blood test alone several people were disqualified,” Bonner said.

“For once in my life, it turned out that I was No. 1. And it worked out really, really well.”

The surgery was April 26, a Tuesday, at New York Presbyterian Hospital. Bonnor was home that Friday and missed only eight days of work. She said she just had her sixmonth checkup and she is in good health.

“Jane didn’t just save my life, she saved my family’s life,” D’Antonio said. “Donating an organ doesn’t just affect the person getting the organ — although certainly it affects them the most — it affects everyone’s life.”

Bonner said she takes every opportunity to share her story to bring awareness about the importance of being an organ donor.

“I want to be a living example to show that it can be done because it’s life changing for the recipient and only a little inconvenient for the donor,” she said.

There is a large need for organs in New York. More than 9,700 people are on the organ waiting list, and someone dies every 18 hours waiting for one, according to LiveOnNY, a federally designated organ procurement organization.

New York ranks last among the 50 states in percent of residents registered as organ donors, despite surveys showing

above, councilwoman Jane Bonner speaks at the Organ Donor enrollment Day kickoff event at Stony Brook University Hospital Oct. 6. Below, Bonner and her friend Tom D’antonio after their surgeries to transplant her kidney into his body in april.

92 percent of New Yorkers support organ donation. Only 27 percent of New Yorkers are enrolled in the state registry, versus the average of 50 percent registered across the rest of the country.

Stony Brook Medicine and Stony Brook University hosted the Organ Donor Enrollment Day event Oct. 6, including Bonner, in a statewide effort to boost the number of registered organ donors.

“Our residents need to be reminded about the importance of organ donation,”

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) said in a statement. “Along with stressing how one organ and tissue donor can save multiple lives, understanding and debunking the social and religious myths about organ donation are also critical to turning the tides in New York as we currently rank last in registered organ donors in the nation.”

Dawn Francisquini, transplant senior specialist for the hospital, said volunteers enrolled 571 people.

“New York has a very large population, so it’s going to take a lot to get us up to where the other states are,” she said. “But we’re making progress.”

There are two ways to become an organ donor.

One is to be a living donor, like Bonner. A potential donor does not have to know someone in need of an organ to donate a kidney, lobe of liver, lung or part of a lung, part of the pancreas or part of an intestine.

“Living donation is so important because not only are you giving an organ to someone, so you’ve saved that life, but you’ve also made room on the list,” Francisquini said. “So you’ve saved two lives by donating one organ.”

The most common way is by registering when filling out a driver’s license registration or renewal form to be considered as a candidate upon death. According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, though, only about three

in 1,000 deceased people are suitable for organ donations.

Doctors determine whether organs like kidneys, livers, bones, skin and intestines are medically viable for a waiting recipient and they typically go to patients in the same state as the donor.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) signed legislation Aug. 18 allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to register as organ donors. If they die before turning 18, parents or guardians are able to reverse the decision.

“By authorizing 16 and 17-year-olds to make the selfless decision to become an organ donor, we take another significant step to grow the state’s Donate Life registry and create opportunities to save lives,” Cuomo said in a statement.

Francisquini said she thinks this new law will make a big difference. Previously, because those under-18 were not allowed to express their wishes when filling out a driver’s license form, many would not register as donors until years later when renewing their license.

Since her surgery, Bonner has shared her story in speeches, panel discussions and on social media using the hashtag #ShareTheSpare.

“I really feel like this is much better than anything I could accomplish in my professional career,” she said. “Through the support of the people that keep electing me, I’ve been able to accomplish really amazing things, but this is a step above that. Satisfying is not even the word to describe it.”

‘I’ve been able to accomplish really amazing things, but this is a step above that.

Satisfying is not even the word to describe it.’

Additionally, Adamo and

Nemeth have both had their projects selected to compete in the regional finals in November.

Individual and team winners from the regional competitions advance to the final phase of the contest, which takes place in December in Washington, D.C., where they will compete for top prizes of up to $100,000 in scholarships. Adamo’s project, “Using Nematostella vectensis to Spotlight the Ancient

Roots of Nicotinic Cholinergic Neurotransmission,” is an in-house study, with all the experimental work conducted at Smithtown High School West. Nemeth’s project is “Cellbased Delivery of Gene-silencing Products via Gap Junction Channels.”

Balamurugan’s project is “Blood Metal Concentration in Association with Thyroid Hormones and Autoantibodies in Avid Seafood Consumers.”

Launched by the Siemens Foundation in 1999, the Siemens Competition is recognized by colleges and universities as the premier math and science research competition in the United States. More than $600,000 in college scholarships is awarded to students annually through the competition during regional and national events administered by Discovery Education.

St. James banker named chairman obituary Douglas C. Manditch, of St. James, chairman and CEO of Empire National Bank, has been elected chairman of the Independent Bankers Association of New York State.

His one-year term begins Nov. 1.

“We are delighted Doug Manditch will serve as Chairman of the IndependentBankers Association of New York State,” John Witkowski, president and CEO of the association said. “Our purpose is unchanged, and under Doug’s leadership, that mission will continue. Doug understands that local independent banks play a key role in driving the state and local economies and are a vital component in their social fabric. They are the backbone of our local communities.”

Manditich said it’s an honor to be elected to this position. “As someone who has devoted his entire banking career, a span of over 50 years, to community banking, I view this appointment as an opportunity to give back to an industry that impacts the financial wellbeing of so many fellow New Yorkers.”

West Bulls whip up senior night win in four sets

By Bill landon Senior night was off to a rocky start at Smithtown West, but the Bulls bounced back from a first-set loss to top Sayville, 3-1, Oct. 24: 16-25, 25-16, 25-16, 25-23.

At 9-2, the boys’ volleyball team is in third place in Division I behind 11-2 EastportSouth Manor and undefeated Sachem North with three games left before the playoffs.

“Our teamwork and our hustle — we [communicated] really well and we played well as a team,” junior outside hitter Kevin Kelleher said. “We’ll keep working and build that family bond and hopefully that will help us in the playoffs.”

In the first set, the squad pulled within six points late in the set, but couldn’t come back from the deficit to lose it, 25-16.

The second set was a different story, as the Bulls jumped out front, 6-2, and rattled off four more straight points before Sayville called timeout.

The Golden Flashes broke service and fired back with four unanswered points of their own to trail 10-6, but after the teams traded points, the Bulls broke out to a 1610 advantage.

our blocking was a little shaky, but we hit the ball well.”

Smithtown West senior outside hitter Brendan Smith got things going in the third set, stringing five point volleys in a row to lead his team to a 5-0 lead. Sayville struggled, committing several mental errors which the Bulls cashed in on.

Out front 10-4, the Bulls turned up the heat, outscoring their opponent 9-2 for a commanding 19-6 advantage. But Sayville wouldn’t go down quietly, and battled backed to only lose it, 25-16.

In the first three sets, with a 25-16 margin of victory for each, the fourth and final set proved to be even more of

a nail-biter.

Sayville peppered the scoreboard with 12 points early in the fourth set as the Bulls managed just three. Although it seemed the game would end up going to a fifth set, Smithtown West chipped away at the deficit and scored nine unanswered points as Sayville’s defense began to splutter, committing several unforced errors.

Senior right-side blocker Brian Grudman answered with a thundering service ace to put his team out front for the first time in the set, 13-12, as the Bulls got their heads back in the game.

“Our hustle and our ability to pick ourselves back up — not giving up on any balls [is what led us to the win],” he said.

“We’re going to raise the net, show some hustle, work our butts off as hard as we can.”

Sayville soon brought the set to a 2323 tie, which prompted a timeout. Sayville gave Smithtown West break point on a service error, and the Bulls made them pay for it by scoring the final point to put the game away, 3-1.

“They’ve really bought into the team concept — the court defense, the passing, the hustle that they show,” Smithtown West head coach Michael Legge said. “We push that for every single point every single game, and you don’t say die until the ball hits the floor.”

Legge added that the match was more exciting than he would’ve liked: “This is a deep team — it’s 16 players — not just the six guys you see on the court. In practice, the [nonstarters are] constantly pushing the starters to play better and better.”

The Ted Talk I wasn’t asked to give ... Part 2 Your turn

to its senses and realizes that constructive destruction of curriculum and teaching methods is necessary, and Common Core was not a common cure? What should we teach? Here’s a start: Personal finances. Every school should create a bank where students have the option to invest by purchasing shares. The bank would issue loans to students and would require a student co-signer. Interest would be added to the loan reflecting the amount and length of loan. Credit rating would be developed. [Yes. I’ve done it and it works.]

What is fire, auto, and life insurance — and how do they work?

The art of being skeptical without being a skeptic. Time. What it is and how to manage it.

Relationships: What are they? How do they develop? And what is their value? Introductions: How to offer and receive.

Black boxes in airplanes and cars. What do they reveal? What are mortgages? Why do they exist?

Waste management. Where does garbage go? What are sewers and cesspools? [Water, water … not everywhere.]

Logic and reasoning with and without Venn diagrams. The art of questioning and the value of wrong answers.

The media. What it is, how it works, and the choices it makes. The illusions in movies and TV through editing, music, and more. PG13: How and why things are rated. The goals and methods of advertising.

Photos from Smithtown school district

Above and below, Great Hollow Middle School in the Smithtown Central School District raised $2,400 during its annual Coaches vs. Cancer event Oct. 13.

Middle schoolers kick cancer to the curb Great Hollow Middle School in the Smithtown Central School District held its fifth annual Coaches vs. Cancer event on Oct. 13. Each year, the coaches plan a day for the school teams to host a game, and students and faculty are invited to watch them participate in various after-school sports.

It is a school-wide effort to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. Thanks to the help of the PTA, student and adult volunteers, the event raised close to $2,400.

Donations came from students, teachers, staff and parents.

More than 275 student-athletes took to the fields to compete — including football, field hockey and boys and girls soc-

cer — and another 250 students came out to support the cause. The cheerleaders and kickline performed during halftime at the football game. The cross-country and girls tennis teams helped to collect donations from spectators.

“The entire school showed great support and amazing spirit to help make this event successful,” said organizer and coach Colleen McKillop. “The coaches praised all the student-athletes for their efforts on the field, as well as their choice to be involved in a very important cause.

Cancer claims millions of lives each year, and the Great Hollow family wanted to do something to combat that. We believe every little bit helps.”

A closer look at Suffolk County Legislature’s budget

File photo by Elana Glowatz

Suffolk County Legislator William “Doc” Spencer encourages residents to check out this year’s budget for themselves.

Photo from Jane Bonner

Jane Bonner, right, is encouraging others to be organ donors after she donated a kidney to her friend Tom D’Antonio, left, earlier in 2016

Giving the gift of life Recently, Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) signed legislation that will allow 16 and 17-year-olds to register as organ donors. Nearly 10,000 names currently reside on the state’s waiting list, hoping to get the good news that a life-saving organ has become available.

Unfortunately, many may have to wait longer than they’d like, or can, because New York is last among the 50 states in percentage terms of residents registered as organ donors. Our editorial staff is in favor of the new legislation, though scenarios where a 16-yearold will be a suitable candidate for donation could be few and far between. Expanding the pool of potential donors makes sense, but will this be enough?

Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) donated a kidney to a friend in need earlier this year, and we hope she inspires others to #ShareTheSpare.

Bonner has said on several occasions how fulfilling the experience has been for her, on top of the obvious benefit of helping someone else.

A member of our editorial staff came across a video this week of remarks made by Rabbi Maurice Salth at Central Synagogue in New York City Oct. 12, in which he told a story of a 23-year-old man who was killed in a car crash. The crash left the man brain dead, and his family decided it was best to allow his organs to be donated. His heart, both lungs, liver and each kidney were given to people on the waiting list. Five lives were saved by those organs, though five others were potentially saved if you consider that five new names moved to the top of the waiting lists.

The need for registered organ donors upon death in New York is obvious, though as Bonner has said, participation from more living donors would make a difference for so many people. You don’t have to know someone desperate for a new organ to step up and save a life.

Upon reviewing the executive’s recommended budget, the legislature is faced with extremely difficult decisions. With a deficit exceeding $100 million dollars, combined with our obligation to provide essential services to the 1.5 million residents, there is much to weigh.

In recent years, the legislature has saved $300 million by avoiding the cost of building a jail, reduced payroll by $100 million with 1,300 less employees, and saved $77 million dollars over 5 years by privatizing our health centers. Additionally, we closed the Foley Nursing Home, saving $12 million annually, and merged the offices of Suffolk County Treasurer and Comptroller, resulting in a savings of $3 million. We have taken these proactive steps while holding the line and freezing property taxes for 5 consecutive years. Despite the strides we have made, we continue to face a deficit and must make further cuts to our vital services that we all benefit from.

Reducing expenses is necessary, but I urge my colleagues to avoid making cuts that will cost

and have presented the proposal to my colleagues. I firmly believe we can continue to provide these services while finding the needed savings.

Another critical program on the chopping block, which is equally as important to public health in Suffolk, is the Tobacco Control Program. This cut will make a small dent into our deficit, yielding $188,000 in funds for the county. Compare that to the $10.39 billion dollars in health care costs and the $7.33 billion dollars in productivity losses in New York State directly caused by smoking each year.

The mission of this program is to prevent disease. It is indisputable that when we prevent disease, we save money and save lives.

We can preserve this program through vigorous pursuit of existing state aid opportunities.

These are your services; I urge all residents to stay engaged through this budget process and I welcome any questions or comments. Please feel free to call my office at 631-854-4500.

us more in the long run. The executive’s recommended budget includes the loss of 2 programs that I firmly oppose cutting: the Public Health Nursing Program and the Health Education and Tobacco Control Program. The elimination of these programs will cost us far more than the projected savings for 2017, and will have profound effects for generations to come.

Our public health nurses serve our most vulnerable populations. In Suffolk County, we have one of the highest rates of babies born exposed to opiates. Our nurses are on the frontlines of this epidemic as they are treating addicted mothers and their babies, helping to prevent this drug scourge from carrying on to the next generation. Considering our deficits, expenses have to be reduced; however, in this case we are not prepared to remove this safety net as the existing agencies are not in the position to serve these complex cases. In working with the public health nurses, I have come up with a proposal to reinstate the program for 2017

File photo

I am writing to thank you for your coverage of Suffolk County’s opioid epidemic in the Oct. 6 editions of TBR News Media.

Your articles thoroughly explored the multifaceted causes and consequences of the increase in opioid use, and you outlined many valuable resources available in the community to address the problem.

I am extremely supportive

of your attempts to advance the discussion of this issue, ensuring that it gets the attention that it deserves. I am confident that your articles will stimulate the efforts toward public awareness, access to care and policy change.

opinion Take me back to the World Series ... in 1908 and 1948

T

he current World Series baseball matchup features two teams that haven’t won a championship in decades. The Cleveland Indians’ last title came in 1948, while the Chicago Cubs, in case anyone hasn’t heard, previously claimed baseball’s top prize in 1908.

Let’s take a look at the way things were the last time each of these teams won the World Series.

In 1948, the Indians’ Leroy “Satchel” Paige made his debut on July 9, becoming the first African-American

By Daniel Dunaief pitcher in the American League.

He went 6-1 for the Indians that season, although he pitched to only two batters in the World Series, retiring them both.

The cost of everything was

D. None of the above

considerably lower, before inflation kicked in. The price for a grandstand ticket at Braves Field, Boston, for the clinching sixth game when the Indians beat the local Braves, 4-2, was $6. The Braves moved later to Milwaukee and then Atlanta.

The cost of a gallon of gas to drive to Braves Field, which is now Nickerson Field on the campus of Boston University, was about 16 cents.

Also in the world of sports, the Olympics returned to the world stage after the 1940 and 1944 games were canceled during World War II. Remarkably, London — the target of repeated bombings during the war, which had ended only three years earlier — hosted the 1948 Olympics.

In other international events, Israel was created, with David Ben-Gurion serving as the first prime minister. In Berlin, after the Soviet Union blocked all ground traffic into West Berlin, the airlift started on June 26, 1948, and didn’t end until Sept. 30, 1949, providing enough supplies to enable West Berlin to remain under the control

of the British, French and American governments.

Back on the home front, President Harry Truman dedicated New York International Airport, commonly known as Idlewild Airport and, now, JFK. He hailed the new airport as “the front door” of the United Nations, which was under construction in Manhattan and would be completed in 1952.

Truman, who had become president after FDR died, ran for election against Republican Thomas Dewey.

The day after the election, the Chicago Daily Tribune ran a banner headline that read, “Dewey defeats Truman.”

A beaming Truman held up the paper after he won the election.

Back in 1908, the last year the Cubs won the World Series, the Olympics were held in London for the first time.

The games were originally scheduled for Rome, but a Mount Vesuvius eruption in 1906 made a new venue necessary.

The cost of a grandstand ticket at West Side Park, where the Cubs played, was $1.50. The Chicago team wouldn’t

A dazzling introduction to electronic music

T

his past weekend, I spent some delightful time with my grandson and was introduced to electronic music. He plays and composes this type of music, so I wanted to know more about it, and I was dazzled.

In a corner of his bedroom, with relatively few, modestsized electronic instruments, he can construct and deconstruct and reconstruct sounds as they graphically appear

By Leah S. Dunaief on a screen in front of him.

He can reproduce the sound of any musical instrument, then combine that sound with any other, such as an industrial sound, and create a unique sound with the help of a synthesizer. There is often a strong beat associated with the musical line, but not always. Traditional musical instruments can be combined with

Between you and me

unique sounds. And pauses can be built in for a vocalist.

I’ll try to explain how this was made possible. Advances in technology, from the development of tape recorders last century to the laptop computer of today played a part.

According to some research I did on the Internet, the earliest electronic devices for performing music were developed at the end of the 19th century. Italian Futurists explored sounds not precisely considered musical. Then in the 1920s and ’30s, electronic instruments were introduced and used to play the first compositions.

The big breakthrough came with magnetic audiotape, sort of analogous to the development of film for movies. Audiotape enabled musicians to tape sounds and then modify them, by changing speed or splicing out mistakes and inserting better parts of takes. It was a boon to recording commercial music, be it classical or popular.

Germany was first on this scene, actually during World War II, and that work was brought to the United States at the end of the war.

Musique concrète was created in Paris, France, in 1948, wherein fragments of natural and industrial sounds were recorded and edited together to produce music from electronic generators. Japan and the United States joined in this development in the 1950s and ’60s.

Computers were now available, and they could be made to compose music according to predetermined mathematical algorithms.

In 1957, the RCA Mark II Sound Synthesizer became the first that could be programmed by its user, making possible the fusion of electronic and folk music, for example.

Its user now had the ability to pinpoint and control elements of sound precisely.

By the 1970s, the synthesizer helped make electronic music a significant influence on popular music. Electronic drums and drum machines entered disco and new wave music. Toward the end of the last century, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface or MIDI enabled everything from experimental art music to popular electronic dance music. Pop electronic music became

move to Wrigley Field until 1916.

A loaf of bread cost about 5 cents, while a gallon of gas, for those who had cars, was some 20 cents. Ford started producing the Model T car that year. The average worker made $200 to $400 per year.

In Europe, Wilbur Wright was dazzling French spectators with demonstrations of his ability to bank turns and fly in circles in an airplane.

The president of the United States was Theodore Roosevelt. He had already indicated he wouldn’t run for re-election after two terms. His successor, William Taft, defeated Democrat William Jennings Bryan to win the 1908 election. Women would still have to wait to vote until the 19th Amendment passed on Aug. 18, 1920.

In 1908, the country celebrated its first Mother’s Day on May 10, and in early November the Brooklyn Academy of Music opened.

And those are just some of the highlights of the last years the Cubs and Indians won the World Series.

connected to mainstream culture.

In the last decade, many software-based virtual studio environments have emerged, allowing viable and cost-effective alternatives to typical hardware-based production studios, many of which have gone out of business. Microprocessor technology can help make high quality music using little more than a laptop.

When my grandson, who just turned 18, sits in his bedroom and composes full-orchestral music from bits and pieces of sounds he has recorded — aided by his drum machine and bass synthesizer, that he then plays over the Internet — we are seeing the democratization of music creation. He doesn’t even need those bits and pieces, although he sometimes likes to add them.

Synthesized music can be created entirely from electronically produced signals. My grandson is, in fact, marching along the same path as Paul Hindemith and the Beatles.

Only today he has more technology to help him than they did.

Will all this eventually replace large orchestras? He says, “Yes.”
