  • WHAT PRICE LITHUANIAN INDEPENDENCE? By
    NOT FOR WITHOUT WRITER'SPUBLICATIOICONSENT INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD ILN AFEAIRS Vilnius Lithuania April ii, 1990 WHAT PRICE LITHUANIAN INDEPENDENCE? by Ina Navazelskis Saturday, March 31, was a beautiful spring day in Vilnius. The sun shone; a gusty, warm breeze blew. People were out shopping or strolling along Gediminas Prospect, Vilnius' central boulevard. Life looked normal. It was, however,-far from that. It was on this balmy spring day that Mikhail Gorbachev delivered his most stinging written rebuke yet to the Lithuanian leadership. Almost three weeks to the day after the Lithuanians declared independence, Gorbachev warned of "grave consequences" if the Lithuanian parliament refused to revoke all the laws, declarations, resolutions and appeals that it had passed in the interim. Gorbachev's primary target, of course, was the declaration of independence itself, or as the Lithuanians call it, the "reestablishment" of the independent statehood of Lithuania. The Lithuanians have been calling for negotiations with Moscow ever since they passed this act on March ii. Gorbachev now stipulated he would sit down at the negotiating table only if the Lithuanians [evoked it. "The current Lithuanian leadership is not listening to the voice of reason, Gorbachev' s ultimatum to the Lithuanian Parliament began. It was totally ignoring the decisions of the extraordinary third session of the Soviet People's Congress held in mid-March (which condemned all the Lithuanian moves) and was "carrying out actions which conflict with the Constitution of the Soviet Union, and which, in the view of the entire Union, are openly provocational and insulting." Ins Navszelskis, a journalist, hes written extensively about East European and Soviet ffairs.

  • Man, History and Poetry. Dominant Tendencies in Lithuanian 21St
    anna mikonis-railienė Images vol. XV/no. 24 Poznań 2014 Man, History and Poetry. ISSN 1731-450x Dominant Tendencies in Lithuanian 21st-Century Documentary Films In the history of Lithuanian cinema, documentary fi lm has had a dominant role. Th e poetical form of the documentary has built a pic- ture of Lithuanian history in Soviet times resistant to ‘doctoring’, as well as having played an exemplary role in creating the image of Lithuania in Europe in the 1990s. At that time documentary fi lms gained more international recognition than other fi lm genres. Th e most important of the Lithuanian ones were: Earth of the Blind (Neregių žemė, 1992) by Audrius Stonys – awarded the European Felix in 1993; Th e Spring (Pavasaris, 1997) by Valdas Navasaitis – awarded the main prizes at the Cinéma du Réel Festival in Paris, at the L’Alternativa Independent Film Festival in Barcelona, and at Oberhausen; as well as in 2006 the fi lm Before Flying Back to the Earth (Prieš parskrendant į žemę, 2006) by Arūnas Matelis – the fi rst fi lm in the history of Lithuanian cinema to be nominated for an Oscar. Th en there is also the emotional image of children suff ering from leukaemia and their diffi culties in hospital which also received two highly prestigious distinctions: the Silver Wolf award at the Amsterdam Film Festival, and the Grand Prix in Lipsk. Lithuanian documentary fi lm has also found national and international audiences at numerous documentary fi lm festivals in Lithuania. Importantly, the Vilnius Docu- mentary Film Festival organised in Vilnius every year and Vilnius Film Shorts, as well as the Šoble Festival of student productions – derived from the doyen of documentary fi lm, Henrikas Šablevičius – are at the centre of constant interest and have testifi ed to the strengthening of the documentary’s position as one of the most popular and fascinating fi lm genres.

WEA’S ROOTS DATE BACK TO THE FOUNDING OF WARNER BROS. RECORDS IN 1958 AS A DIVISION OF WARNER BROS. PICTURES. IN 1963, WARNER BROS. RECORDS PURCHASED FRANK SINATRA’S REPRISE RECORDS. AFTER WARNER BROS. WAS SOLD TO SEVEN ARTS PRODUCTIONS IN 1967 (FORMING WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS), IT PURCHASED ATLANTIC RECORDS AS WELL AS ITS SUBSIDIARY ATCO RECORDS. IN 1969, THE WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS COMPANY WAS SOLD TO THE KINNEY NATIONAL COMPANY. KINNEY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL (LATER CHANGING ITS NAME TO WARNER COMMUNICATIONS) COMBINED THE OPERATIONS OF ALL OF ITS RECORD LABELS, AND KINNEY CEO STEVE ROSS LED THE GROUP THROUGH ITS MOST SUCCESSFUL PERIOD, UNTIL HIS DEATH IN 1994.

  • Louis Johnson
    LOUIS JOHNSON Approfondimenti a cura di Riccardo Pantella LOUIS JOHNSON “ THUNDER-THUMBS “ Quando si parla della tecnica dello Slap spesso vengono in mente i soliti nomi di grandi musicisti, ad esempio Larry Graham che si sostiene ne sia l’inventore. Ma è impossibile parlare di questa tecnica e non citare Louis Johnson, che di certo è stato uno dei pionieri ed ha contribuito a svilupparne la tecnica. Per via del suo stile distintivo venne soprannominato Thunder-Thumbs. Da non sottovalutare le sue numerose collaborazioni come session man. Tra le più importanti potremmo citare l’album “Thriller” di Michael Jackson. Probabilmente ciò che ha dato un grande contributo alla sua carriera è stata la sua ampia musicalità e senso ritmico. BIOGRAFIA Nato a Los Angeles il 13 Aprile del 1955, Louis fin da subito mostrò un forte interesse per la musica. Suo padre regalò presto una chitarra a lui e a suo fratello George, che subito cominciarono a suonare a turno. Louis era attratto dalle note gravi e cominciò a suonare le linee di basso che ascoltava sui dischi di artisti come James Brown, The Temptations and The Supremes.. Fu così che suo padre decise di regalargli un basso, e passò poco tempo prima che Johnson cominciò a strappare e percuotere le corde per dare più groove a ciò che suonava. Tutto questo si è evoluto nella tecnica dello Slap, rendendolo un musicista di fama mondiale. Mentre era ancora a scuola a Los Angeles, insieme al fratello George e il cugino Alex Weir formarono i “Three Plus One”. Band che si è subito evoluta in un contesto professionale condividendo palchi con artisti come The Supremes e Bobby Womack.

  • Lithuanian Jazz in Retrospect 1920S–1980S
    Rūta SKUDIENĖ The Lithuanian Composers’ Union Lithuanian Jazz in Retrospect 1920s–1980s ABSTRact This article is a retrospective of the development of jazz in Lithuania from early local jazzy bands in 1920s to Lithuanian jazz masters in the 1980s. The article discusses how till the wave of the “thaw” in the 1960s and immediately after, jazz was considered a phenomenon unacceptable to Soviet ideology and to- tally alien to Lithuanian culture and how the Iron Curtain and long cultural isolation, the turmoil of the perestroika and the years of the national revival did not seem to interrupt the development of jazz. On the contrary, it took root in the realm of Soviet culture. Musicians with academic training began to play jazz, and it came to be identi- fied with a manifestation of extraordinary creativity, entitled to employ even the most radical means of musical expression. This article is devoted to the Jazz festivals in Lithuania and dedicated to the great Lithuanian free jazz musicians, the bands, performers, composers and their works of that period continue to bring fame to Lithuanian jazz worldwide. KEYWORDS: Lithuanian jazz, Lithuanian Orchestra of Popular Music, Juozas Tiškus, Vilnius Jazz Club, Tallinn Jazz Festival, Elektrėnai Jazz Festival Jaunystė, Birštonas Jazz Festival, The Ganelin Trio, Vladimir Chekasin Big Band, The Chekasin Quartet, Oleg Mo- lokoyedov, Petras Vyšniauskas Quartet, Melodiya, Vilnius Recording Studio. Introduction The 20th century jazz history has already been written. The evolution of this genre that lasted more than a century ran parallel with one of the most singlar technologi- cal achievements – sound recording, its reproduction and the advance of music re- cording industry; however, the influence, perception and spread of this music differed from country to country.
