IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A

LOT LIKE XMAS....ImagesOWV4V89J

 

 

 

 

...that was especially true at the Cavalier Club Xmas show where Debbie Coole(Jolainey) was judging. Everyone was getting in the festive mood and the Committee, dressed in their Christmas accessories, put a smile on the faces. Of course, the mulled wine helped! The hall was decked, there was xmas tunes, hot home made food to tempt the appetite and Xmassy themed prizes for the lucky ones. These all added up to a splendid day of good humour and made us all forget for a while the horrid weather outside.Have never seen so many Christmas jumpers at a Cavalier show.

MUSIC TO THEIR EARS?

 

Bret Stetka is a writer from New York.

"In 2001 musician Peter Gabriel flew to Atlanta to make music with two apes. The jam went surprisingly well. At each session Gabriel, a known dabbler in experimental music and a founding member of the band Genesis, would riff with a small group of musicians. The Bonobos apes were trained to play in response on keyboards and showed a surprising, if rudimentary, awareness of melody and rhythm.

Since then Gabriel has been working with scientists to help better understand animal cognition, including musical perception. Plenty of related research has explored whether or not animals other than humans can recognize what we consider to be music – whether they can they find coherence in a series of sounds that could otherwise transmit as noise. Many do, to a degree. And it's not just apes that respond to song.

Parrots reportedly demonstrate some degree of "entrainment," or the syncing up of brainwave patterns with an external rhythm; dolphins may respond to Radiohead; and certain styles of music reportedly influence dog behaviour. Nuytre

Wagner supposedly honed his operas based on the response of his Cavalier Spaniel above.The German operatic composer, Richard Wilhelm Wagner (1813-1883) was one of the most important figures of nineteenth-century music. Best known as the composer of the series of four operas that make up The Ring Cycle, he had a strong appreciation of the musical taste of dogs. He provided a special stool in his study for Peps, his Cavalier. As Wagner composed he would play the piano, or sing passages that he was working on. The composer kept his eyes on the dog and modified musical phrases based upon how the dog reacted. Wagner noticed that Peps responded differently to melodies depending upon their musical keys.
