  • BOB SEDERGREEN: the INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson*
    BOB SEDERGREEN: THE INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson* _______________________________________________________ [This interview appeared in the December 1981 edition of Jazz Magazine] ver the last decade, I have had the pleasure of hearing pianist Bob Sedergreen play on many occasions: with vibist Alan Lee, with a succession of bands led O by Brian Brown, as the focal point of the Ted Vining Trio, with Onaje, as the wild card in Peter Gaudion’s Blues Express, providing fairly heroic support to visiting stars Jimmy Witherspoon, Phil Woods, Richie Cole and Milt Jackson, even solo. I have always enjoyed and admired his playing for its unflagging swing and qualities of joy, resourcefulness and commitment, and his determination to take chances at all times in search of inspiration, which he seems to find more frequently than most. He has long impressed me as a jazz musician who often plays ‘above himself’ because he has the courage to do just that. Bob Sedergreen: the sum total of his music is pure Sedergreen… In the last few years, he has continued to increase the scope and depth of his playing, and his confidence in it, to the point where he is obviously one of the best musicians in Australia. We have too few others who can so consistently be so exciting, original, inventive, surprising and enjoyable. __________________________________________________________ *In 1981 when this was published, Adrian Jackson was a freelance writer, who had been jazz critic with the Melbourne Age since 1978. 1 I won’t try to describe his playing. As with any really good jazz artist, his playing is a reflection of his listening and playing experiences, and his own personality.

  • Elmwood Cemetery: a Walking Tour of Burlington's History
    Elmwood Cemetery: A Walking Tour of Burlington's History A Historic Guidebook by University of Vermont Students 2008 i INTRODUCTION Scott A. McLaughlin The Elmwood Cemetery is one of the oldest community cemeteries in Burlington, Vermont. In its landscape and monuments, the cemetery captures the community's earliest history. Few, however, visit the cemetery and little is known about most of those buried in the cemetery. Some prominent and recognizable names appear on some of the headstones and monuments but most have never ventured into the cemetery because of its locked gates. One of the functions of this booklet is to expose people to what lies on the other side of the cemetery's iron fence. These locked gates are a result of vandalism and misuse of the cemetery by some members of the public. The authors encourage visitors to take the time, request the gates be open for them, and walk through Burlington’s history as they tour Elmwood Cemetery. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This booklet was completed as a semester long project by sixteen University of Vermont students, including Daniel Basta, Heather Bell, Mark Bowman, Samuel Cummings, Nina Gross, Justin Guerra, Caitlin Kirchman- Galligan, Tanner Lake, and Nathan Loschiavo. Heather Bell and the course instructor Scott A. McLaughlin edited the booklet. Completion of the project was made possible with the assistance of Jim Meunier of the Elmwood Meunier Funeral Home and the staff at Burlington's Cemetery Division, UVM Bailey/Howe Library Special Collections, UVM Archives, Burlington's Fletcher Free Library, and the Burlington City Clerk's Office. The project also greatly benefited by the extraordinary volunteers who created an illustrated database of many of those buried in Elmwood Cemetery (see www.findagrave.com).

    THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT by NEV ĐN ZEYNEP YELÇE Submitted to the Institute of Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Sabancı University June, 2009 © Nevin Zeynep Yelçe 2009 All Rights Reserved To My Dear Parents Ay şegül and Özer Yelçe ABSTRACT THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT Yelçe, Nevin Zeynep Ph.D., History Supervisor: Metin Kunt June 2009, xv+558 pages This dissertation is a study of the processes involved in the making of Sultan Süleyman’s image and reputation within the two decades preceding and following his accession, delineating the various phases and aspects involved in the making of the multi-layered image of the Sultan. Handling these processes within the framework of Sultan Süleyman’s deeds and choices, the main argument of this study is that the reputation of Sultan Süleyman in the 1520s was the result of the convergence of his actions and his projected image. In the course of this study, main events of the first ten years of Sultan Süleyman’s reign are conceptualized in order to understand the elements employed first in making a Sultan out of a Prince, then in maintaining and enhancing the sultanic image and authority. As such, this dissertation examines the rhetorical, ceremonial, and symbolic devices which came together to build up a public image for the Sultan. Contextualized within a larger framework in terms of both time and space, not only the meaning and role of each device but the way they are combined to create an image becomes clearer.

  • TED VINING: in the JAZZ WILDERNESS by Neville Meyers*
    TED VINING: IN THE JAZZ WILDERNESS by Neville Meyers* _________________________________________________________ [This article appeared in the Spring 1983 edition of Jazz Magazine.] Ted Vining in 1974: striving to create an environment for change… PHOTO COURTESY AUSTRALIAN JAZZ MUSEUM alent, and high-powered creative drive, can be self-alienating qualities. Blessed — or cursed — with them, the artist stands apart, adopts a critical stance, and T inevitably comes into conflict with his or her artistic environment. The conflict may out of sheer frustration cost you an ear (Van Gogh), thrust upon the artist a self- protective cloak of stark eccentricity (Monk), or in much less dramatic fashion — in the case of Ted Vining —manifest itself in striving to create an environment for change. The desire for change — allied with a deep commitment to strenuously push jazz forward as an evolving art form — are obviously deeply embedded in the Ted Vining personality. But change, the drummer will tell you, is not what the Brisbane jazz scene — in Vining's terms, the jazz wilderness — is all about. Says Vining: "Brisbane is a jazz wilderness because many people feel lost here. The lost feeling comes from ___________________________________________________ *In 1983 when this was written, Neville Meyers was a librarian, jazz collector, part-time jazz programmer/announcer on Brisbane's 4MBS-FM, and veteran habitué of jazz clubs in Australia and the United States. 1 critically looking at the musical environment, noticing a lack of professionalism, and seeing in many of its musicians on stage, lack of reason for being there."

Stosch Mr. Walter J. Kucharski, Auditor of Public Accounts Director Philip A. Leone COPYRIGHT 2000, COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA Preface House Joint Resolution No. 530 and Senate Joint Resolution No. 345 from the 1999 Session directed a JLARC review of issues related to the care and maintenance of burial sites of Revolutionary War veterans. Virginia currently has a program to help provide for the care and maintenance of Confederate veteran gravesites, but has no similar program for veterans of the American Revolution. This final report provides a listing of Revolutionary War veteran burials that updates a list printed in the interim report for this study. The final report also contains recommendations and funding options for a program to provide care for these burial sites. JLARC staff estimate that there are about 560 cemetery sites and 705 grave markers that are potentially eligible for participation in a maintenance program re- ceiving State support. Some of the sites already receive certain maintenance care, so State assistance would serve to either help defray some of the current expenditures made by caretakers, or help them provide a higher level of maintenance care.
