<mask> (January 18, 1818 – March 12, 1868), sometimes known as <mask>, was an American landowner who briefly served as an Irish Repeal Association politician in the United Kingdom. MacTavish was the great-grandson of <mask> of Carrollton, an American founding father, and was born into a wealthy family in Maryland. He was named for his great-grandfather, who had a strong influence on his early life, ensuring that he was brought up devoutly Catholic. His mother's family had married into English aristocracy, and with their support, MacTavish began a career with the British diplomatic service. In the 1840s, he became interested in politics, and stood for election as a candidate in an Irish seat at the 1847 general election. He was narrowly elected, but the result was overturned following an election petition, which challenged both the conduct of the election and his status as a British subject. The committee ruled that some votes had been cast illegally, but did not find that it was proven he was ineligible to sit.MacTavish later returned to America, where he married a daughter of General Winfield Scott, and took over a large family plantation in Maryland with around fifty slaves. He remained a slaveholder until the end of the Civil War, when he sold the estate, though he was considered a loyal Union citizen. He died in 1868. Early life

MacTavish's father, <mask>, was a Scottish fur trader with the North West Company in Canada. He married Emily Caton, the daughter of Richard Caton, a wealthy Baltimore merchant, in 1816, and they took up residence in Montreal; through her mother, Emily Caton was the granddaughter of <mask> of

texts: Carrollton, a signatory of the Declaration of Independence. Their first child, <mask> MacTavish, was born in January 1818 in Maryland, while his mother was visiting her parents. Emily's sisters had married into the British aristocracy; MacTavish's uncles by marriage included Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquess Wellesley, former Governor-General of India, Foreign Secretary, and later Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, and Francis D'Arcy-Osborne, 7th Duke of Leeds.In 1819, the family moved to Maryland, where <mask> was appointed as consul-general to the United States in 1829, and later consul for Maryland and the District of Columbia. From 1832, they resided at Carrollton Hall, a short distance from Baltimore, an estate gifted by his great-grandfather. MacTavish and his siblings were raised in a strongly Catholic environment, influenced heavily by the wishes of their great-grandfather. He was a pupil at Stonyhurst College in England, a Jesuit school, between 1830 and 1834. During his time at Stonyhurst, he attended the coronation of William IV. At this time, he was interested in a military career, though this did not come to pass. In 1834, his uncle Wellesley, then Lord-Lieutenant in Dublin, met him on a visit to Ireland and wrote that he "is receiving the education of a Catholic priest and both his understanding and his person will soon decline".In 1839, MacTavish left America to travel to Russia and then onward to the United Kingdom, with ambitions of a diplomatic career. He was presented at court in London in April 1839 by Andrew Stevenson, the American ambassador. He lived for some time in Paris, where he perfected his French, and

 then with the support of his uncle, the Marquess of Wellesley, was attached to the British diplomatic service. He is recorded as being associated with Henry Wellesley's embassy to the Ottoman Empire, which would suggest he went to Constantinople around 1845. In 1845, his sister Mary married Henry George Howard, the youngest son of the Earl of Carlisle; at the time, Howard was an attaché to the British Embassy in Paris. Election controversy

After living for some years in the United Kingdom, MacTavish became involved in Irish politics, and stood for election to the House of Commons in the 1847 general election, as a Repeal Association candidate in . At the hustings, his proposer drew a link to his great-grandfather, noting that as "<mask> was instrumental in effecting American independence, so he hoped that <mask> MacTavish would yet be instrumental in achieving the independence of Ireland"; MacTavish said that he "long had his eye on Ireland, and though an American by birth, was an Irishman in feeling".He was declared elected, polling 124 votes against 121 for William McCullagh, the Whig candidate. A full list of electors (and some non-voting supporters) was published as a poster by MacTavish's supporters shortly after the election. However, an election petition was raised to challenge the result, and was adjudicated in March 1848 by a committee composed of five MPs from across the political spectrum. The main challenge was that he was legally an alien - an American citizen rather than a British subject, and so barred from sitting in Parliament. In addition, it was alleged that he had failed to properly declare his

 qualification to sit, and that he and his agents had been guilty of bribing electors. On the main challenge, the opposition argued strongly that the various statutes which would make him a British subject had been passed before the 1801 Act of Union, and did not extend to Ireland; under existing Irish law, which had not been altered since the Union, he would need to be born to parents both of whom were British subjects. This point was contested over the first three days, with testimony taken from his father and a copy of an American passport provided as evidence, and a debate about whether his mother had in fact been born in England.Eventually, the parliamentary committee concluded that "it has not been proved that the sitting member is an alien disqualified from law from sitting in Parliament". However, his victory was short-lived; over the third and fourth days, the hearing proceeded to examine a number of disputed votes in the election, and eventually concluded that several votes had been cast by ineligible voters. This reduced MacTavish's total below that of McCullagh, who was declared elected on March 18, 1848. Later life

Following this disappointment, MacTavish chose to return to America. In the early 1850s, he married Marcella (Ella) Scott, the youngest daughter of General Winfield Scott (later to be a candidate for president). MacTavish acquired the Carrollton Hall estate from his parents in 1850, and sold it again in July 1864 for $100,000. The house would return to the family in the 1880s, however, when it passed to <mask>, son of John Lee Carroll, a distant cousin.In 1850, he had estimated the value of his


texts:
 property at $50,000 in land, and in 1860, $60,000 in land and $40,000 in assets. As owner of Carrollton Hall, MacTavish was also a slaveowner; the estate had 50 slaves in the 1850 census, and 51 in the 1860 census, while an advertisement for sale, estimated to be around 1860, included 38 slaves. He may have freed some or all of his slaves during the American Civil War - in June 1864, John Woolley, the provost marshal for the Baltimore region, enquired about his loyalty to the Union, and a local officer reported that MacTavish was a "thoroughly loyal citizen" who "gave us every facility for enrolling his slaves". No slaves were recorded in the sale that July, a few months before slavery was formally abolished in Maryland. In 1867, following the death of his mother, he inherited the bulk of her estate, estimated at over $200,000. The bequest had been made by her to fulfil a promise to her grandfather, <mask>. He died on March 12, 1868.His family continued the tradition of devout Catholicism. His youngest daughter Emily became a nun with the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary in 1883, and her eldest sister May entered a convent in Brussels in 1887. The middle daughter, Virginia, was rumoured by gossip columnists in 1888 to be engaged to the recently widowed Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk; however, she never married. References

He played over 100 games for the Vale in two seasons, before he signed for Oldham Athletic in June 2008. Again a first team regular, he left after two seasons to join Chesterfield in May 2010. He helped the club to the League Two title in 2010–11, and also won himself a place on the division's PFA Team of the Year. He also helped the club to the League Trophy title in 2012.He returned to Macclesfield Town in August 2013, and played in the club's defeat at the 2017 FA Trophy Final, before helping the club to win promotion back to the English Football League as champions of the National League. He was appointed as the club's caretaker-manager in November 2018, before announcing his retirement in July 2019. He again stepped up to become caretaker-manager at Macclesfield in August 2019 and January 2020, before he was appointed as the first manager, in October 2020. Career

Macclesfield Town
Whitaker was a Manchester United junior, and spent time at both Bradford City and local side Wilmslow Albion before signing with Macclesfield Town. He scored on his Football League debut; during a 2–1 home defeat to Exeter City on 2 February 2002. He went on to make another 15 Third Division appearances that season, earning a fresh contract upon the season's end. A regular in the 2002–03 season, he scored a hat-trick in the League Cup 4–1 triumph over Barnsley on 11 September.In most unusual fashion all three goals came in the second period of extra time. With ten goals before the winter break he was linked to both Oldham Athletic and Preston North End. However manager David Moss was highly dismissive


texts:
 of such speculation, saying: "Quite frankly, I am sick and tired of reading about players who have just signed two-year contracts but want to get away. <mask> will be going nowhere except Macclesfield reserves if he doesn't improve." The club insisted that Whitaker was too valuable a player to let go. This transfer talk came despite him having recently signed a contract to keep him with the "Silkmen" until June 2005. Rated as a star player before the start of the 2003–04 season, he had a rather quiet season with just six goals, going 22 games without a goal from November to the season's finish.He scored just four goals in the 2004–05 season, though manager Brian Horton was still keen to hold on to him, despite nine others being deemed unworthy of a new deal. Six goals in 45 appearances followed in 2005–06. However, despite having been established in the heart of the Macclesfield midfield for the past four years and winning the club's player of the year award, he was released at the end of the season. Port Vale
Now a free agent, Whitaker moved up to League One with Port Vale in June 2006. He played 51 games in his first season at Vale Park. At the end of the 2007–08 season, where Whitaker again played 40+ games, he was offered a new contract along with three other Port Vale players. But in May he rejected the contract and was told he could look for another club.However, Lee Sinnott told Whitaker that he would get back to him with a better offer if chairman Bill Bratt could raise some more money, the wage bill having been cut due to relegation. In June, he was offered an improved deal. Whilst mulling over the offer he was given a deadline. On 20 June 2008, he turned down the chance to stay at Vale, and instead opted to join Oldham Athletic, still in League One. Oldham Athletic
Whitaker scored eight goals in 42 appearances for the "Latics" during the 2008–09 season. He was released at the end of the 2009–10 season, despite missing only a

 handful of games during his spell at the club. Chesterfield
Whitaker was signed by Chesterfield in May 2010, linking up with his old boss John Sheridan.He started the 2010–11 campaign with three goals in as many league games, having bagged a hat-trick against Hereford United. Playing in every one of the club's league games, scoring fifteen goals in the process, Chesterfield won promotion as champions of League Two. He was also named in the PFA Team of the Year, along with teammates Craig Davies and Tommy Lee. The following season, 2011–12, the "Spireites" struggled at the bottom of League One, and Whittaker lost his first team place in the new year. He was an unused substitute as Chesterfield beat Swindon Town in the final of the League Trophy at Wembley Stadium. He was offered a new one-year contract by the club in May 2012. He made 34 appearances in the 2012–13 campaign, and was not offered a new contract by manager Paul Cook.Return to Macclesfield
Whitaker re-signed with Conference Premier club Macclesfield Town in August 2013. He made 49 appearances for John Askey's "Silkmen" across the 2013–14 campaign. He agreed to a new one-year deal in July 2014. He scored six goals in 30 games in the 2014–15 season. He scored eight goals in 50 appearances in the 2015–16 campaign as Macclesfield finished in tenth position and signed a new one-year contract in July 2016. He made 55 appearances across the 2016–17 campaign, including in the 2017 FA Trophy Final at Wembley Stadium, where Macclesfield were beaten 3–2 by York City. He scored eight goals in 45 appearances in 2017–18 as Macclesfield won promotion back to the Football League as champions of the National League.On 8 October 2018, <mask> and Neil Howarth were appointed as Macclesfield Town's joint-caretaker-managers following the dismissal of Mark Yates. They remained in charge until Sol Campbell was appointed as manager on 27 November. He scored three goals in 26 games as Macclesfield

<mask> (born 1966, Caripito, Venezuela) is an American blues and folk musician, guitarist, singer-songwriter, and recording artist. Known for his ethereal style, he was nominated for Emerging Artist of the Year in 2006 by the Folk Alliance, and has released a number of solo albums. In 2010 <mask> co-founded the folk trio Brother Sun, with singer-songwriters Joe Jencks and Greg Greenway, and the band has since released two full albums and toured extensively. Wictor also has an extensive discography as a sideman, playing instruments such as lap slide guitar and dobro. He currently resides in Brooklyn, New York. Early life
<mask> was born in 1966 in Caripito, a city in the Monagas State of Venezuela. Both his parents were American, and early on his mother, Cecilia "Cee Cee" <mask>, exposed Wictor to history, poetry and the arts.For several years Wictor and his four older siblings lived in oil camps owned by Creole Petroleum Corporation, and their father's career in the oil industry later led to them living in East Texas, the Netherlands, Norway, and England. Wictor returned to the United States as a teenager, living first in California. Wictor began playing guitar while young, and focused on genres as diverse as rock, heavy metal, and jazz. After starting with guitar he also learned bass and saxophone. He quit music entirely in the late 1980s to become a community organizer, then a high school teacher. Music career

Tall Tales
In 1993 Wictor returned to music, and around that time also began composing songs. He initially played solo; however, he soon met fellow guitarist Jim Ypsilantis while both were living in New York City and working as teachers, and they began composing music together and performing live in the area under the band name Tall Tales.On January 5, 1999, they released their first album, Souls Are Falling. According to a review, the album contains "creative "new acoustic" sounds (i.e.,

 elements of folk, rock, jazz, and soul). Touches of world music – African, Latin, Middle Eastern – can be heard throughout their work, distinguishing it from the pack of other current adult contemporary music. The band's focus and strength lies not in its vocals, but in the sound of Wictor's and Ypsilantis's guitars blending together, weaving in and out, dancing about like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers." He and Ypsilantis released a second album on October 4, 2001, titled Things You Know. That year, Wictor left teaching to become a full-time musician. In 2002 he performed on the first of many recordings as a sideman, and he began to develop a reputation for his skill with lap slide guitar.Solo albums
On March 23, 2003, Wictor released his debut solo album Temporary Stay on his own independent label RiskyDisc Records. This was followed by the album Waiting for the Water, also released on RiskyDisc on September 23, 2004. Waiting for the Water reached No. 4 on the Folk-DJ Charts, and Wictor toured throughout the United States. In 2005 and 2006 his touring included opening sets for artists such as Richie Havens, Chris Smither, and John Hammond. Heaven is So High (2006)
Wictor's third album, Heaven Is So High...And I'm So Far Down, was released in July 2006 on RiskyDisc. The CD featured original songs mixed with distinctively arranged covers of artists such as Mississippi Fred McDowell, Rev.Gary Davis, Bob Dylan, Walter Davis, and Dave Carter. Wictor also handled guitar and lap slide guitar, with bass by Freebo and blues harmonica by Bob Beach. Like his previous album it peaked at No. 4 on the Folk-DJ Charts, In a 2007 review for Heaven Is So High by Acoustic Music, "<mask> is a monster lap steel, resonator guitar and dobro player...He plays blues and folk like he was born to them." The review also praised both his original songs and his adaptations of older songs. In 2006 Wictor was nominated for the

 Emerging Artist of the Year Award by Folk Alliance International. The following year he was a finalist at the New Folk songwriting contest at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas.He has also been named "Most Wanted" at the Falcon Ridge Emerging Artist Showcase and was a nominee for Best Gospel Song with his track "Love Is the Water" at the Independent Music Awards. Sunset Waltz (2008)
His next album, Sunset Waltz, was released on RiskyDisc in May 2008 on both CD and digital format. As with his previous solo albums Wictor wrote, arranged, sang, and performed all guitars, and for the first time also produced the recording himself. The album includes a rework of his song "Where Did You Go?," originally on Waiting for Water. This time on the track he was joined by Red Molly, a band from New York consisting of Abbie Gardner, Laurie MacAllister and Carolann Sollebello. Songs like "Eventide" feature Wictor on laptop steel guitar, with vocal harmony from the duo of Joe Jencks and Helena Nash, and accompaniment from Jon Carroll on organ, Cheryl Prashker on drums, and Don Porterfield on bass. He also recorded songs by Phil Ochs for the album, though he significantly re-arranged the tracks.Sunset Waltz reached No. 2 on the Folk-DJ charts. Living Ever-Lovin' LIVE (2010)

His most recent solo album, Living Ever-Lovin' LIVE, is a live album with both Wictor's original tracks and a number of re-arrangements of traditional songs. The CD features several duets with dobro player and vocalist Abbie Gardner. Collaborations, teaching
A capable improviser and instrumentalist, Wictor has worked as a sideman and session musician since 2002. He has contributed slide guitar and vocals to a number of releases, including ones by Sloan Wainwright, Joe Crookston, Jon Vezner, Tom Prasada-Rao, and Buskin & Batteau.

Founding
In late 2009 Wictor joined long-time collaborators Joe Jencks and Greg Greenway to form the band Brother Sun. The trio had first performed together at a music conference at Southeast Unitarian Universalist Summer Institute that summer. According to Wictor, "I invited Joe and Greg to join me onstage in a concert I was doing [at SUUSI]. We rehearsed for an hour, got onstage, and the sound of our voices together was one of the most powerful musical experiences of my life. Lots of audience members and musicians in attendance all said we should form a group." However, since the members all had conflicting schedules and lived in different cities (Boston, New York, and Chicago), the band didn't coalesce until the spring of 2010, starting its first tour that December with the members traveling separately to shows.Each member of the band plays guitar and sings, with <mask> also playing slide guitar, Greenway on piano and ukulele, and Jencks on the bouzouki, a mandolin-like instrument. Instruments such as ukulele are also used. Most of the band's songs are written by individual members, then arranged as a group, with the style typically incorporating folk, blues, and gospel. According to Wictor, "Suffering and transcendence are what the blues and gospel both have. That speaks to all three of us and what we want to project with our music." The trio's music also incorporates elements of Americana, pop, jazz, Celtic, rock, and a cappella singing. Brother Sun (2011)
The band's debut, Brother Sun, was released on June 18, 2011.The album was recorded with the same setup as one of their live shows, with no extra instruments or voices. After debuting at No. 2 on the Folk DJ Chart, it was named the No. 8 album of 2011 on FOLK-DJ. Over a dozen radio stations, including WUMB (Boston), WFUV (NYC), and

 WFMT's The Midnight Special (Chicago), put the band on their "Best of 2011" and "Best of 2012" lists. Some Part of the Truth (2013)
The majority of Wictor's touring time in 2011 and 2012 was spent with Brother Sun. Their second album, Some Part of the Truth, was released on January 26, 2013, on their new label Brother Sun Music.The album was more heavily produced than their previous release, and brought on Grammy-winning producer Ben Wisch. Bassist Zev Katz, percussionist Joe Bonadio, and cellist Brian Sanders also contributed to the recording sessions. According to Wictor, "I see this new album as more atmospheric, textural, colorful, moody, evocative, and emotionally rich [than the debut]." The album was positively received. According to Rich Warren of WFMT in Chicago, "More polished than Brother Sun's initial effort, Some Part of Truth blends expressively riveting male harmonies with precise, equally sensitive guitar and keyboard talent into three personal journeys from deep within." Some Part of the Truth was the No. 1 CD on the Folk-DJ chart for all of 2013, receiving the most play of any release, and "Lady of the Harbor" was the No.1 song of the year. The CD debuted at No. 1 and remained there for two months, then spent another five consecutive months in the chart's Top-40. It also reached No. 2 on Sirius XM’s Americana Chart. The first track on the CD, "Lady of the Harbor," debuted at No. 1 on the Folk-DJ Chart, and in early 2014 was also included on the in-flight program for Lufthansa Airlines.Recent years
As of 2014 Wictor continues to tour both on his own and with Brother Sun, and he has performed at festivals such as the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, the Kerrville Folk Festival, and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. In 2017, he released his first solo album in eight years, This Is Absolutely Real: Visions and Versions of Phil Ochs, a cover album of Phil Ochs songs. Style
 Wictor typically


texts:
 incorporates rural country music, gospel, and blues into his songwriting, instrumentals, and vocals. His style has also been classified as Americana, with Dirty Linen stating that the clear quality of his voice makes for an "interesting juxtaposition" alongside his musicianship. About his songwriting style, The Country Blues wrote, "He manages to infuse an almost playful, yet tasteful, improvisation while maintaining a beautiful sense of melody." The review also praised his skill with fingerstyle and lap steel guitar," positively comparing him to Harry Manx and Kelly Joe Phelps. Also, "Wictorʼs signature sound is clean and understated, not a note too many.He annunciates each note and plays with a simple, eloquent feeling and advanced virtuosity. His music is, if anything, tinged with a sweet-sensitivity, a gentleness. This is the antonym to fiery, angry, furious blues." Personal life
As of 2014 Wictor resides in Brooklyn, New York. He continues to write a monthly email column entitled "A Few Choice Words." He is also a co-founder and board member of The Reading Odyssey, an organization dedicated to helping adults "re-ignite their curiosity and learning, mostly through exploring classic literature together."

Early career
In 1993, <mask> <mask> achieved his first success, performing well on the European Youth Olympic Days. Before the Atlanta Games, Astrid <mask> <mask>, who was coaching the Dutch team, became frustrated with the swimmers representing the Netherlands, feeling they had much potential but would not be able to live up to it due to lack of adequate support. She pleaded with Cees to take action, as he carried much weight from his professional connections. After Astrid threatened to remove <mask> from the sport, Cees created a small foundation and signed up 20 initial sponsors who each paid $2,500 to fund a team trainer. The Dutch swimming team eventually signed contracts with Philips, Nike, and Speedo. Enough funds were raised to open a swim school in Eindhoven, <mask> <mask>'s place of residence. The team eventually grew to ten.<mask> remained the Netherlands' brightest star, and along with fellow Dutch Inge de Bruijn brought the Netherlands many victories in the sport. <mask> <mask> is the only swimmer in history who has managed to win both the 100–200 metre freestyle double at the Olympics and also repeat as 100 freestyle champion at the Olympics. His three Olympic gold are the only three won by a Dutch male pool swimmer. 1996 Olympics

After winning 6 gold medals at the 1999 European Championships, <mask> <mask> was one of the favourites at the 2000 Summer Olympics, but his adversaries were formidable. In the 200 m freestyle he faced the world record holder, Australian youngster Ian Thorpe, favourite of the home crowd in Sydney. In the semi-finals, <mask> <mask> set a new world record, but Thorpe countered with a time only 0.02 s slower. In an exciting final, <mask> <mask> equalled his time from the semi-finals to win the gold medal. In the 100 m freestyle, <mask> <mask> again set a world record in the semi-finals and won his second gold medal, defeating the 1992 and 1996 champion, Alexander Popov.

 topped in 2015 by Cameron McEvoy of Australia. He had disappointing performances in both the 100 and 200 freestyle events though, finishing runner up to Alexander Popov and Ian Thorpe respectively, with considerably slow times. His times from previous meets in the past year, and earlier rounds of the championships, would have won both events. His winning time in the 200 freestyle at the 2002 European Championships was faster than Ian Thorpe's winning time at these Championships, but <mask> went about 2 whole seconds slower this time around.His time in the semis of the 100 freestyle at these Championships would have won the final of that event as well (won by Alexander Popov), and his 100 free relay split (with nearly a second gain from a rolling start) was 2 whole seconds faster. 2004 Olympics

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, he won a gold medal in the 100 m freestyle and two silvers in the 200 m freestyle and the 4 × 100 m freestyle relay, swimming the anchor leg in 46.79 which was the 2nd fastest split in history. By finishing ahead of Michael Phelps in both the 200 m freestyle and the 4×100 m freestyle relay, he is the only swimmer to ever beat Phelps twice in Olympic competition. While technically the second was a relay, his split was faster by a large margin, and the margin of beating the U.S team by a far smaller one. 2007 World Championships
At the 2007 World Championships in Melbourne, Australia, <mask> <mask> won a silver medal in the 200 m freestyle behind Michael Phelps. He holds by a large margin the all-time record for most runner up finishes at the World Championships without winning. 2008 Olympics
<mask> <mask> returned to the Olympic Games in 2008 in Beijing and finished fifth in the 100 m freestyle.He retired after the race. In the semifinals he broke his own national record that stood from 2000 Summer Olympics bringing it to 47.68 s.

In making the 100 m freestyle final, <mask> <mask> became the first swimmer to make the finals in the same event

He also was the founder, and, until his death, the conductor of the celebrated concerts attached to the conservatory of Brussels, and he inaugurated a free series of lectures on musical history and philosophy. <mask> produced a large quantity of original compositions, from the opera and the oratorio to the simple chanson, including several musical hoaxes, the most famous of which is the "Lute concerto by Valentin Strobel", premiered with Fernando Sor as soloist. Carcassi, as well as Sor, participated in the performance.The work is attributed NOT to the Alsascian lutenist Valentin Strobel, but to Jean (Johann) Strobach, a member of a prominent Bohemian family of musicians. This Strobach (fl. 1650–1720) served Leopold I, and there is no evidence that Fetis's score is a hoax. The composition was published in 1698, although no copy is known to have survived, except Fetis' manuscript score, which is in the Royal Conservatory Library in Brussels. In 1856, he worked closely with Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume in writing a fascinating treatise about Antonio Stradivari (Antoine

masks: Fétis Fétis


texts: Stradivari, luthier célèbre). It includes detailed chapters on the history and development of the violin family, old master Italian violin makers (including the Stradivari and Guarneri families) and an analysis of the bows of François Tourte. His interest in instruments can also be gathered from his very substantial collection, which includes the oldest surviving Arab oud.Fetis had the privilege to have Paganini, Schumann and Berlioz as contemporaries and to work with the violin maker and dealer, Jean Baptiste Vuillaume. Fetis's work provides a unique window into the times and as such is a particularly valuable reference for the modern researcher, dealer and player. More important perhaps than his compositions are his writings on music. They are partly historical, such as the Curiosités historiques de la musique (Paris, 1850), and the Histoire générale de la musique (Paris, 1869—1876); and partly theoretical, such as the Méthode des méthodes de piano (Paris, 1840), written in conjunction with Moscheles. While <mask>'s critical opinions of contemporary music may seem conservative, his musicological work was ground-breaking, and unusual for the 19th century in attempting to avoid an ethnocentric and present-centered viewpoint. Unlike many others at the time, he did not see music history as a continuum of increasing excellence, moving towards a goal, but rather as something which was continually changing, neither becoming better nor worse, but continually adapting to new conditions. He believed that all cultures and times created art and music which were appropriate to their times and


texts:
 conditions; and he began a close study of Renaissance music as well as European folk music and music of non-European cultures.Thus <mask> built the foundation for what would later be termed comparative musicology. <mask> died in Brussels. His valuable library was purchased by the Belgian government and presented to the Royal Library. His historical works, despite many inaccuracies, remain of great value for historians. His pupils included Luigi Agnesi, Jean-Delphin Alard, Juan Crisóstomo Arriaga, Louise Bertin, William Cusins, Julius Eichberg, Ferdinand Hérold, Frantz Jehin-Prume, Jacques-Nicolas Lemmens, Adolphe Samuel, and Charles-Marie Widor.

Some of his criticisms of contemporary composers have become quite famous, as well as the responses that they engendered. He said of Berlioz, "...what Monsieur Berlioz composes is not part of that art which we distinguish as music, and I am completely certain that he lacks the most basic capability in this art." In the Revue musicale issue of 1 February 1835 he wrote of the Symphonie Fantastique:

Berlioz, who had proof-read Fétis' editions of the first eight Beethoven

texts:
 symphonies for the publisher Troupenas, commented that

Troupenas did in fact remove <mask>' editorial marks, but Berlioz was still unsatisfied. He went on to criticize <mask> in one of the monologues of Lélio, ou le Retour à la vie, the 1832 sequel to Symphonie Fantastique:

Not one to be outdone, Fétis may have had the last word in this debate. In the 1845 edition of his treatise La musique mise à la porte de tout le monde, he describes the word "fantastique" saying that "this word has even slid into music.‘Fantastique' music is composed of instrumental effects with no melodic line and incorrect harmony." Theoretical work
Although known primarily for his contributions to musicology and criticism, <mask> had effects on the realm of music theory as well. In 1841 he put together the first history of harmonic theory, his Esquisse de l'histoire de l'harmonie. Assembled from individual articles that <mask> published in the Revue et Gazette musicale de Paris around 1840, the book predates Hugo Riemann's more well known Geschichte der Musiktheorie by fifty years. The Esquisse, as the title implies, is a general outline rather than an exhaustive study. <mask> is attempting to show the "facts, errors, and truths" of previous theories and theorists, as he interprets them, in order to provide a solid grounding for other scholars and to prevent subsequent interpretive mistakes. <mask>' main theoretical work and the culmination of his conceptual frameworks of tonality and harmony is the Traité complet de la théorie et de la pratique de l'harmonie of 1844.This book has influenced later theorists

texts: and composers including Paul Hindemith, Ernst Kurth, and Franz Liszt. In the Musik-Lexicon of 1882, Hugo Riemann states that "to [<mask>'] meditations we are indebted for the modern concept of tonality…he found himself emancipated from the spirit of a particular age, and able to render justice to all the various styles of music." Though some other theorists, most notably Matthew Shirlaw, have had decidedly negative views, Riemann's assessment captures the two key features of <mask>' text. Though he did not coin the term "tonality," <mask> developed the concept into its present-day form. He claimed that "tonalité" is the primary organizing agent of all melodic and harmonic successions and that the efforts of other theorists to find the fundamental principle of music in "acoustics, mathematics, aggregations of intervals, or classifications of chords have been futile." The majority of the Traité complet is devoted to explaining how tonalité organizes music. The primary factor of determining tonality is the scale.It sets out the order of the succession of tones in major and minor (the only two "tonal" modes which he recognizes), the distances which separate the tones, and the resultant melodic and harmonic tendencies. Tonality is not only a governed and conditioned state, but it is a socially conditioned one. Scales are cultural manifestations, resulting from shared experience and education. Nature provides the elements of tonalité, but human understanding, sensibility, and will determine particular harmonic systems. This concept was called a "Metaphysical principle" by <mask>, though

texts:
 Dahlhaus argues that the term is used in this case to denote an anthropological, culturally relative sense in his 1990 book Studies on the Origin of Harmonic Tonality, and theorist Rosalie Schellhous posits that the Kantian term "transcendental" might be more appropriate. In his comparative work, <mask> attempted "a new method of classifying human races according to their musical systems" following contemporary trends of social darwinism in the emerging fields of ethnology and anthropology. Harmonic and rhythmic modulation
However, if one wishes to interpret <mask>' metaphysical theory, one of his unique theoretical ideas is laid out in book 3 of the Traité complet, that of harmonic modulation.<mask> argues that tonality has evolved over the course of time through four distinct phases, or ordres:

Unitonic – Resulting from plainchant tonality, the unitonic phase consists mainly of consonant triads with no possibility for modulation due to the lack of the tritone between the 4th and 7th scale degrees. This phase is also referred to by Fétis as tonalité ancienne. Transitonic – Order which began with the introduction of the dominant 7th chord into harmonic discourse, sometime between Zarlino and Montverdi. This development is also directly related to the codification of cadential systems and periodic phrase structure. Pluritonic – Modulation is achieved through enharmonic relationships in which one note of a chord is considered the point of contact between different scales. <mask> claims that Mozart was the first to use such modulations as a means of expression. In this order, the


texts:
 diminished 7th and augmented 6th chords become important as they can modulate to several different tonalities.Omnitonic – The final phase of tonality, and one embodied for <mask> by Wagner, where the alteration of the intervals of natural chords and modification by substitution of notes is so complex that it becomes impossible to identify the original chord. This is seen as a period of extremes, and undesirable compared to the moderately chromatic music of Meyerbeer. <mask> later applied this same system of ordres to rhythm, "the least advanced part of music...[where] great things remain to be discovered." Though he did not publish these theories in any of his treatises, they appear in several articles for the Revue musicale and in some lectures which had a profound impact on Liszt. Though music had not yet made it past the first phase, Unirhythm, by <mask>' time, he argues that composers may be able to "mutate" from one meter to another within the same melodic phrase. Though Liszt may have been an open disciple of the ideas of the Omnitonic and Omnirhythmic, the influence of such thinking can perhaps be seen most clearly in the music of Brahms, where hemiola and mixing of time signatures is a common occurrence. "Se i miei sospiri"
The Italian art song, "Se i miei sospiri", appeared in a Paris concert organized by <mask> in 1833.<mask> published the piece for voice and strings in 1838 and then again in 1843 for voice and piano with alternate lyrics ("Pietà, Signore"). It is these alternate lyrics with which the piece is now typically associated. <mask> attributed the song to

 Alessandro Stradella and claimed to possess an original manuscript of the work but never produced it for examination. As early as 1866, musicologists were questioning the authenticity of the song, and when <mask>' library was acquired by the Royal Library in Brussels after his death, no such manuscript could be found. Owing to this and the fact that the style of the piece is inconsistent with Stradella's own period, the authorship of the piece is now typically attributed to <mask> himself. The original Italian text for the song (Se i miei sospiri) was found set to different music by Alessandro Scarlatti in his 1693 oratorio "The Martyrdom of St. Theodosia". Publications

Jean-<mask> (born January 1945) is a Cameroonian politician. He has been the National President of the Progressive Movement (Mouvement Progressiste, MP), an opposition political party, since its foundation in 1991, and he was a Deputy in the National Assembly of Cameroon from 2007 to 2013. As a student activist and a CPDM leader
 <mask> was born in Douala. Early in his political career, he was a member of the Union of the Peoples of Cameroon (UPC). He was politically active while studying in France, and he was arrested for political reasons in 1970 when he returned to Cameroon for a visit. After nearly two years in prison, he was released and resumed his studies in France. When the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement (CPDM) was created as the governing party in 1985, replacing the Cameroon National Union (CNU), <mask> joined the party, encouraged by President Paul Biya's promises of reform.<mask> was elected as the President of the Wouri Section of the CPDM in 1986. His election was considered part of an effort by President Biya to reconcile factions in the party by allowing politicians such as <mask>, who had been considered disloyal in the past, to take prominent leadership roles as Section Presidents. In 1990, at the beginning of the period of multiparty political reform, he was considered to be among the leading progressive figures within the CPDM. In early 1991, <mask> was re-elected as President of the Wouri Section, defeating Albert Dzongang. However, he left the CPDM in May 1991. Ekindi was considered the most important CPDM member to defect to the opposition at that time. As an opposition leader in the early 1990s
In opposition, Ekindi founded a new party, the MP; he has been the MP's National President since it was founded on 23 August 1991.He participated in a rally held by the National Coordination of Opposition Parties and Associations (NCOPA) in Douala on 23–24 September

 1991, and on that occasion he was arrested and treated so badly that he required hospitalization. 30 to 60 people were arrested when they protested in Douala against Ekindi's arrest. Ekindi was in custody for less than 24 hours and was released without charge at the request of foreign consuls. <mask> was the MP candidate in the October 1992 presidential election. During the campaign, Cameroon Radio Television (CRTV) refused to air a segment produced by the Ekindi campaign on 2 October, judging that the segment included "'vociferous attacks' against the CPDM and 'insulting and defamatory words against Paul Biya'". The National Communication Board reviewed this decision and decided to allow the segment to be aired on 7 October. Further messages from the Ekindi campaign on 9 October and 10 October were not allowed to be aired, however; according to the government, this was because Ekindi was "not respecting legal provisions".According to the official results of the 1992 election, <mask> received 0.79% of the vote (a total of 23,525 votes) and placed fifth. His best performance was in the Far North Province, where he won 9,903 votes. When Biya garnered the nickname "Lion Man" (l'homme lion) at the time of the 1992 presidential election, Ekindi in turn garnered the nickname "Lion Hunter" (chasseur du lion) for his fierce opposition to Biya. <mask>'s stance on the issue of federalism varied at the time. He backed the idea on 4 February 1992 and urged Biya to not ignore the Anglophone problem, arguing that concerns about the possibility of Anglophone secession were baseless because the Anglophone parties were not seeking secession. However, he said in April 1992 that a unitary state was preferable because it would be less expensive than federalism. Political activities since 2003

He was again detained on 17 August 2004 at a march in Douala. In a September 2004 interview, Ekindi expressed his disapproval of the large number of political parties in Cameroon, arguing that it was not useful to have so many and that it made the political landscape crowded and chaotic. He said that many parties were created by individuals seeking only personal gain and that the government used agents to create new parties in order to disrupt the existing opposition. According to Ekindi, Cameroon would ideally have only three parties, one of them in power and the other two in opposition, and he proposed merger agreements to make that happen. Again running as the MP's presidential candidate in the 11 October 2004 presidential election, Ekindi submitted a legal challenge to Biya's candidacy at the Supreme Court in September 2004, arguing that the constitution barred Biya from standing for re-election while also serving as the President of the CPDM. <mask> then announced his withdrawal from the election on 10 October in favor of John Fru Ndi, the candidate of the main opposition party, the SDF.His name nevertheless remained on the ballot, and he placed 13th out of 16 candidates with 0.27% of the vote; he received his best score in the Far North Province, where he took 0.62% of the vote. After the 2004 election, Ekindi filed two petitions at the Supreme Court seeking the annulment of the election. The first petition dealt with Ekindi's argument that Biya was not a valid candidate because was simultaneously President of the Republic and President of the CPDM, while the second focused on allegations

The Supreme Court rejected both of <mask>'s petitions, along with all ten of the other petitions filed by others seeking the election's annulment, on 22 October. In an interview with The Post on 2 January 2007, Ekindi said that he planned to stand as a parliamentary and municipal candidate in Douala in the election held later that year. Also in that interview, he sharply criticized Biya's 2007 New Year address, arguing that it was inappropriate for Biya to criticize corruption and other problems when he, as President for the previous 24 years, was the person most responsible for the state of the nation. According to Ekindi, Biya's criticisms of the country's problems actually represented an admission of his own failure.Furthermore, in response to Biya's assertion that 2006 had been a good year, Ekindi said that this indicated that Biya was divorced from the stark reality experienced by the people. In the 22 July 2007 parliamentary election, Ekindi was elected to the National Assembly as an MP candidate in the Wouri Centre constituency of Littoral Province, where the MP received 22.43% of the vote and one of the three available seats. <mask> was the only member of his party to win a seat in the 2007 election. During the campaign, he complained that the MP received only six seconds of airtime on television per day, giving it a total of one minute and 24 seconds for the whole campaign. According to Ekindi, this represented discrimination against small parties and was illegal. He also headed the MP list for the concurrent municipal election in Douala 1 and won a seat as a municipal councillor there. At the time of the election, the alliance between the MP and the SDF collapsed because, according to Ekindi, the SDF decided to run candidates in Wouri Centre and ignored the alliance.The MP instead formed an alliance with the Cameroon Democratic Union (CDU).

 During the re-election of Bureau of the National Assembly on 14 March 2008, Ekindi objected when Emilia Lifaka, the Vice-President of the CPDM Parliamentary Group, presented a "consensus" list of candidates for the Bureau. Ekindi said that he had not been consulted about the list and that it was therefore not based on a consensus. Cavaye Yeguie Djibril, the President of the National Assembly, ignored <mask>'s objection. After three broadcasting stations were temporarily shut down and broadcasting equipment was subsequently withheld from one of them, Ekindi alleged on 4 July 2008 that Minister of Communications Jean Pierre Biyiti bi Essam was "guilty of abuse of power". Ekindi participated in political consultations with Prime Minister Ephraïm Inoni regarding the appointment of the members of Elections Cameroon (ELECAM), the national electoral commission. After Biya appointed the members of ELECAM on 30 December 2008, Ekindi said on 3 January 2009 that the appointments went beyond mere manipulation, which he had come to expect, and reached the level of blatant deception.According to Ekindi, he had not expected Biya to go so far as to appoint leading CPDM members to ELECAM, as the members of ELECAM were supposed to be neutral, independent individuals. Furthermore, he said that the consultations held prior to the appointments were useless because the proposals made during those consultations were completely ignored. The MP failed to win any seats in the September 2013 parliamentary election, and <mask> therefore lost his seat in the National Assembly. In April 2020, Jean-<mask> resigned from his party to join the CPDM. Personal life
