Pepper’s lonely hearts club band, élu par la revue Rolling Stone premier des 500 meilleurs disques de l’histoire du rock ! Pour marquer cet évènement « revival », la médiathèque de Vincennes vous propose la conférence musicale « The Beatles : mythes et réalités » par Pierre Espourteille, un spécialiste du groupe de Liverpool. La conférence : « 2 heures d’anecdotes, relatées avec humour, agrémentées d’extraits inédits de films, de photos rares et d’illustrations musicales originales. La séparation des Beatles : les vraies raisons du clash : ‐ L’album Let it be et la controverse Phil Spector ‐ Les projets fous de Apple ‐ Les chansons inspirées de vrais personnages ‐ Les chansons « sens caché » ‐ Les compositions : la marque Lennon / l’estampille McCartney » Le conférencier : Pierre Espourteille est intervenant depuis 1985 à l’Université Lyon 3 pour les licenciés Musicologie, à l’Université Jean Monnet‐Saint Etienne ou encore dans les lycées et collèges de la Loire et du Rhône. Il est l’auteur du livre La Musique des souvenirs (éd. Hacienda, 2000) : rencontres avec Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Michael Jackson et 40 autres artistes. Contenu du dossier : Retrouvez ci‐après notre sélection de documents à emprunter à l’Espace musique de la médiathèque, sauf indication contraire : ‐ Discographie commentée : les 12 albums studio (le plus souvent en double exemplaire stéréo et mono), des anthologies, des albums live et de reprises ou adaptations ‐ DVD : clips et concerts, documentaires et films musicaux ‐ Imprimés : livres, méthodes instrumentales ‐ Ecoute et visionnage en ligne, avec les ressources accessibles sur la plateforme Eurêka (dont le concert Sgt. Pepper live filmé à la Philharmonie l’année dernière) et notre playlist YouTube de la conférence ! ‐ Sitographie sélective 4 Un quintet mythique : En 10 ans d’existence, l’œuvre du quatuor de pop‐rock anglais, associé au « cinquième Beatle » George Martin, a révolutionné toute l’histoire de la musique populaire internationale ; une carrière exceptionnelle qui s’est d’ailleurs prolongée dès leur séparation en 1970 à travers de nombreux albums solo, également à emprunter à l’Espace musique !

I love you ; Baby it’s you ; Do you want to know a secret ; A taste of honey ; There’s a place ; Twist and shout Premier album des Beatles, publié quelques mois après la sortie de leurs 2 premiers singles : « Love me do » et « Please please me ». Il est composé de 6 autres chansons écrites par John Lennon et Paul McCartney, et de 6 reprises dont « Twist and shout » des Isley Brothers. George Harrison participe lui aux chœurs et prête sa voix sur 2 morceaux, tandis que Ringo Starr en interprète une. Cet album conserve un statut particulier dans leur discographie pour son authenticité, sa fraîcheur et son rôle de précurseur pour le groupe et le phénomène qu’il va déclencher. With the Beatles / The Beatles EMI, 2009 1 disque compact + livret 2 BEA 20 Remaster stéréo, avec un mini‐documentaire Egalement disponible : le remaster mono It won’t be long ; All I’ve got to do ; All my loving ; Don’t bother me ; Little child ; Till there was you ; Please mister postman ; Roll over Beethoven ; Hold me tight ; You really got a hold on me ; I wanna be your man ; Devil in her heart ; Not a second time ; Money (that’s what I want) Albums studio britanniques par date sortie. Rééditions remasterisées issues des 2 coffrets sortis en 2009 : The Beatles stereo boxed set et The Beatles in mono. A noter que, fondamentalement, les albums des Beatles ont été conçus, enregistrés et mixés pour du son mono jusqu’à Sgt. Pepper compris. Les seuls albums sortis uniquement en stéréo sont Abbey Road et Let it be, c’est pourquoi ils ne sont pas dans le coffret mono, tout comme Yellow submarine. 6 Enregistré 4 mois après leur premier album, With the Beatles contient 8 chansons originales – incluant la toute première composition de George Harrison : « Don’t bother me » – et 6 reprises, principalement de succès rhythm and blues de la Motown. Les Beatles font preuve ici de plus d’originalité : alors qu’ils s’étaient contentés de leurs instruments de scène sur leur premier disque (guitares, basse et batterie), ils introduisent des instruments plus originaux, comme des bongos.

  • Running Head: EXPERIENCES of MENTALLY RETARDED PARENTS
    Parents with Mental Retardation 1 Running head: EXPERIENCES OF PARENTS WITH MENTAL RETARDATION Experiential Accounts of the Challenges of Parents with Mental Retardation Alexis Palfreyman and Rachel Weisenbach Hanover College Parents with Mental Retardation 2 Abstract Historically, there have been significant social concerns about the parenting abilities of individuals with mental retardation (MR) and for the well-being of their children. Past research has identified specific observable behaviors with which parents with MR struggle, and these findings have subsequently influenced the development of parent training programs for this population. The current study aims to expand on previous research by exploring the subjective experiences of parents with MR. Open-ended interviews were conducted which focused on the personal experiences of parents with MR in regard to the challenges and needs they faced as parents. Nine participants were recruited through Noble of Indiana, the Indianapolis branch of the Arc, which provides service and support for persons with MR and their families. These interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed. Using the Interpretative Phenomenological Approach, six clusters and 20 themes were identified. We focused on the clusters of Difficulties, Sources of Help, and Social Judgment as well as themes of Parent-Child Interaction, Parenting Programs, and Influence. Through comparing the subjective data obtained in this study with previous research, we are able to contribute to a more holistic understanding of the experiences of parents with MR. We are also able to make suggestions which may aid in the development of parent training programs, encourage the integration of support services, and help to decrease stigmatization and social judgment.

  • Songs of the Century
    Songs of the Century T. Austin Graham hat is the time, the season, the historical context of a popular song? When is it most present in the world, best able Wto reflect, participate in, or construct some larger social reality? This essay will consider a few possible answers, exploring the ways that a song can exist in something as brief as a passing moment and as broad as a century. It will also suggest that when we hear those songs whose times have been the longest, we might not be hearing “songs” at all. Most people are likely to have an intuitive sense for how a song can contract and swell in history, suited to a certain context but capable of finding any number of others. Consider, for example, the various uses to which Joan Didion is able to put music in her generation-defining essay “Slouching Towards Bethlehem,” a meditation on drifting youth and looming apocalypse in the days of the Haight-Ashbury counterculture. Songs create a powerful sense of time and place throughout the piece, with Didion nodding to the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Quick- silver Messenger Service, and “No Milk Today” by Herman’s Hermits, “a song I heard every morning in the cold late spring of 1967 on KRFC, the Flower Power Station, San Francisco.”1 But the music that speaks most directly and reverberates most widely in the essay is “For What It’s Worth,” the Buffalo Springfield single whose chiming guitar fifths and famous chorus—“Stop, hey, what’s that sound / Everybody look what’s going down”—make it instantly recognizable nearly five decades later.2 To listen to “For What It’s Worth” on Didion’s pages is to hear a song that exists in many registers and seems able to suffuse everything, from a snatch of conversation, to a set of political convictions, to nothing less than “The ’60s” itself.

Innovators: Songwriters David Galenson NBER Working Paper No. 15511 November 2009 JEL No. N00 ABSTRACT Irving Berlin and Cole Porter were two of the great experimental songwriters of the Golden Era. They aimed to create songs that were clear and universal. Their ability to do this improved throughout much of their careers, as their skill in using language to create simple and poignant images improved with experience, and their greatest achievements came in their 40s and 50s. During the 1960s, Bob Dylan and the team of John Lennon and Paul McCartney created a conceptual revolution in popular music. Their goal was to express their own ideas and emotions in novel ways. Their creativity declined with age, as increasing experience produced habits of thought that destroyed their ability to formulate radical new departures from existing practices, so their most innovative contributions appeared early in their careers.

DESCRIPTORS Case Studies; Early Intervention; Grade 1; Literacy Education; Parent Child Relationship; *Parent Education; *Parent Participation; Primary Education; Reading Instruction; Reading Research; Reading Strategies IDENTIFIERS *Emergent Literacy; Illinois; Scaffolding ABSTRACT A study examined the impact of a parent involvement program for parents of children involved in a first-grade reading intervention program in Bakersville, a middle-class suburbnorth of Chicago, Illinois. Parents attended three workshops designedto complement their children's one-on-one tutorialprogram. Analysis focused on case studies of three families and the issuesaddressed concerned: how well parents learned the strategies presentedat the workshops, and did they use these ina responsive manner; how parents' beliefs about their children'sprogress and their own ability to support their children's zzading changedover time; and how home literacy resources and literacy-relatedevents changed over time. Data were coded and displayed in graphsand tables. Findings showed that while all parents learned the strategiespresented at the workshops, some had more success with the techniques thanothers. Parents whose initial theories more closely matched thosepresented at the workshops were able to modify their theoriesmore easily than those who held conflicting beliefs. Findings alsodemonstrated the importance of scaffolded instructionon two levels: between workshop leaders and parents as they learn new skills and betweenparents and their children as the parents support their childrenin new endeavors.

  • The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A
    The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A thesis presented to the University Of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2018 © Piacentino Vona 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract As a period of American History, the 1960s has provided historians and academics with a wealth of material for research and scholarship. Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon, the Vietnam War, the hippie era, and the Civil Rights Movement, among other topics have received thorough historical discussion and debate. Music was another key aspect in understanding the social history of the 1960s. But unlike the people and events mentioned above, historians have devoted less attention to music in the historical landscape. The British Invasion was one such key event that impacted America in the 1960s. Bands such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who found their way into the United States and majorly impacted American society. Using secondary sources, newspaper articles, interviews and documentaries on these bands, this thesis explores the British Invasion and its influence in the context of 1960s America. This thesis explores multiple bands that came in the initial wave. It follows these bands from 1964-1969, and argues that the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who shared common multiple factors that allowed them to attain the traction to succeed and to maintain that success in the United States.
