"Fernandez produziu em todos os gêneros ao longo de 30 anos de carreira. Como chama a atenção Vasco Mariz, ele não pertencia à escola de Villa-Lobos (1887-1959), mas a de Alberto Nepomuceno (1864-1920), o fundador do nacionalismo musical. Seguiu a linha mais conservadora de escritura musical.

Como artista, balançou entre o uso racional de temas folclóricos locais e o apelo cosmopolita. Os dois quartetos de corda que deixou espelham a ambivalência. O primeiro foi composto em 1927. Mariz divide a produção de Fernandez em três fases: as páginas simbolistas da juventude (1918-1922), a nacionalista (1922-1938) e o período final, vincado pela de obras universais de fôlego.

O primeiro quarteto pertence à fase nacionalista. A partitura exibe quatro quatro movimentos recortados de acordo com padrões clássicos. Soluções rítmicas sincopadas, extraídas da música afro-brasileira, se somam a melodias modinheiras. Mas a escritura turva qualquer facilidade nacionalista. O 'Quarteto nº 2' é mais agradável ao ouvido e, de certa maneira, mais profundo. O estilo amadurecido deixa o compositor livre para se expandir melodicamente. O penúltimo andamento, 'Andante Espressivo', é uma página de grande beleza dramática e complexidade harmônica."

iPhone Versus Android

iPhone Versus Android Only eight months after Steve declared that he had reinvented the phone, Information Week announced that Google had created the iPhone’s archenemy - the Android operating system. [1] Android was built by Andy Rubin. The name and logo was copied from the video game, Gauntlet: The Third Encounter , made for Steve’s old employer, Atari. Andy liked to play with the handheld game while he cut his engineering teeth working at Apple. Like Steve, Andy has a penchant for black sweaters - but without the turtleneck. He is also is a tyrant perfectionist. “Rubin kept saying the handset has to be thinner," mumbled one tired Google team member to Michael Arrington of Washington Post , "so we made it thinner". [2] However, the stooped engineer lacks the rock-star presence of his old boss. As Bill did with Windows, Andy would rather ship his idea in many machines rather than one. He pimps out Android to any device maker that wants it. Andy’s not fussy ...
