Newsletter VOLUME 2, NO Newsletter VOLUME 2, NO. 1 SPRING 2013 SOCIETY TO MEET IN WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA MAY 30 TO JUNE 1, 2013 The 2013 HKSNA meeting will be held jointly with the American Musical Instrument Society in historic Colonial Williamsburg. Themed “Roots of American Musical Life,” the presentations cover wide-ranging topics. After the American Revolution, the capitol of Vir- ginia moved to Richmond, saving Williamsburg from the ur- ban transformation of other capital cities. Restored to its eighteenth-century character, Colonial Williamsburg has 88 original buildings and extensively researched reconstructions of others, including the magnificent Governor’s Palace and the capitol building itself. The world’s first and largest living history museum, the town lives up to its motto, “That the Fu- ture may Learn from the Past.” Governor's Palace Come early and stay late to experience the colonial city with its architecture, historic trades, and character actors interpreting the Founding Fathers and Mothers from Williamsburg’s past. Enjoy the cultural enrichments and diversions of the colonial capitol, including instrumental and vocal music and dance. Discover also one of the nation’s principal museums of eighteenth-century Anglo-American life and art, serving as a venue for some of the sessions and concerts. The backdrop for the meeting is a major new exhibit entitled “Changing Keys: Keyboard Instruments for America 1700−1830.” (See photos at http://www.jrw1.com/CK/gallery/). Twenty-eight spinets, harpsichords, organs, and square and grand pianos are featured, most exhibited for the first time. The exhibit traces the transition from harpsichord to piano and the early-nineteenth-century struggle for independence from the British monopoly on musical instruments towards the early burgeoning of the American keyboard industry.

See you in Williamsburg! 2 (Continued from page 1) MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AT COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG The collection in Williamsburg focuses on instruments of all types known in colonial America through the early Federal era. A particular strength in keyboard instruments resulted from a suc- cession of music consultants, conservators, and curators from that specialty, beginning in the 1930s with Lotta van Buren and Ralph Kirkpatrick. An early catalyst in America’s colonial revival phe- nomenon, Colonial Williamsburg also participated in the early mu- sic revival, evolving through decades of changing approaches to eighteenth-century music for current audiences. New exhibit entitled “Changing Keys: PECIAL ROGRAMS S P Keyboard Instruments for America 1700−1830” Three evening concerts will celebrate the heritage of music in early America, which drew from the best English, Continental, and domestic composers. The first will be held in the elegant candle-lit ballroom of the Governor’s Palace with The Governor’s Musick, Colonial Williamsburg’s resident performing ensemble. The program will include selec- tions by composers whose music was listed for sale in Virginia and throughout the colonies in the eighteenth century. Night two features “A Monticello Miscellany or ‘All that was good of its kind.’” Join Joe Gascho and his ensem- ble of seven musicians performing music for domestic entertainment from the library of Thomas Jefferson and his fam- ily. This early-evening concert will be followed by the annual banquet. The conference closes in style with “Music at Home: Fifty Years of Gathering at the Piano” with forte-pianist Andrew Willis and featuring his ensemble on piano, violin, flute and cello in music of European and early American composers. REGISTRATION Early registration fees (before April 30) are: Students, $128; Members, $189; and Non-members, $259. Late registration (after April 30) are: Students, $158; Members, $219; and Non- members, $289. Registration will include daily admission to the museum, all meeting

The parkway's designers, through the use of a curved three-lane road with an exposed aggregate surface, intended this highway to serve not only a means for visitors to enjoy the park but also to limit the speed and numbers of vehicles on the road itself. The parkway's bridges and tunnel, all relatively small and sparsely ornamented, reflect the desire of the planners for these structures to complement the natural environment of the Colonial National Historical Park.

Box 210, Yorktown, VA 23690 Description Colonial National Historical Park protects key sites that span the history of the entire British colonial period in North America, from the first permanent English settlement on Jamestown Island to the battlefield where the colonies ultimately secured their independence from Great Britain at Yorktown. The park is located on the Virginia Peninsula between the York and James Rivers, part of the Tidewater region of southeastern Virginia. The site of significant human habitation for more than 11,000 years prior to the first English contact, the park protects resources and evokes stories of the interaction and conflict between the English colonists and the American Indians of the Powhatan Paramount Chiefdom; the economic, political, and social evolution of the colonies; and the development of the institution of lifelong African American slavery. Jamestown Island. The site of the first permanent English settlement in North America, the Jamestown Colony gave rise to key institutions of the American colonies, including the plantation agricultural system, representative government, and slavery. Jamestown also served as the capital of the Virginia colony until 1699. Visitors can experience the archeological remnants of Old Towne, the site of initial settlement that is managed by Preservation Virginia. The Voorhees Archaearium displays artifacts documenting the origin and history of the colony, reflecting its early mismanagement, famine, and conflict that nearly resulted in the failure of the colony.

  • Colonial National Historical Park (PDF)
    A fact sheet from 2017 Michael Ventura/Alamy The Island Drive loops, Surrender Road, and other park roads require more than $171 million in repairs. Brenda Kean/Alamy Colonial National Historical Park Virginia Overview Colonial National Historical Park preserves some of the most important sites in early American history. The park includes Jamestown, established in 1607 as the first permanent English settlement in North America. Visitors can experience the convergence of Europeans, Native Americans, and African slaves through historical interpreters at re-created homes and other buildings inside a fort. The park also includes Yorktown Battlefield, where in 1781 American and French troops defeated the British in the last major battle of the Revolutionary War. These sites are among the most significant in American history, but they are challenged by more than $200 million in needed repairs. Maintenance challenges The park’s buildings are central to its historical interpretation but are slowly falling into disrepair, with more than $9 million in deferred maintenance. After decades of neglect, the reconstructed 18th-century Swan Tavern, the main pub at Yorktown, needs nearly a half-million dollars in repairs. The Yorktown Visitor Center, which provides resources for visiting families and school groups, has a $6.8 million repair backlog. And more than $600,000 is required to restore the Nelson House, the home of Thomas Nelson Jr., one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The park’s roads also are degrading and comprise the majority of the park’s infrastructure needs. For example, more than $146 million is needed to repair the Colonial Parkway, a 23-mile scenic roadway connecting Yorktown to Jamestown.

Owens The spellcheckcT on my computer does not recognize "placelessness" as a word, and it is not in the unabridged dictionary. However, an internet search pulled 2,000 hits for the tenn, and the meaning is readily comprehended. "Placelessness" is a mental response to a generic environment. It can mean disorientation, caused by the disappearance of landmarks, or alienation, resulting from peoples' dislike of their surroundings. It describes a place with­ out heritage, one that lacks identity or is artificial and meaningless. Edward Relph coined the tenn in 1976 in Place and Placelessness, a study of envi­ ronmental philosophy. That same year, Yi-Fu Tuan, a geographer, founded the discipline of Human (i.e.

  • Historic Resources
    HISTORIC RESOURCES INTRODUCTION York County and the surrounding region are rich in both historic archaeological and architectural resources and preservation of these resources while maintaining appropriate opportunities for development is an ongoing challenge. For the benefit of residents, commercial interests, and developers, it is important to plan ahead for the identification and preservation of these resources, rather than having to respond in a reactive or haphazard manner after development is proposed. Given the County’s rich history, it is not surprising that the citizens feel preservation of historic sites and structures should be one of the County’s top priorities. The Historic Resources element contains a summary of efforts made thus far in the preservation of the County’s historic resources as well as recommendations for future objectives and implementation strategies to further historic resource preservation goals. County History The following summary is an update of the Historic Overview chapter of the 2000 Historic Resources Survey of York County, Virginia, prepared in conjunction with a matching grant from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources and in coordination with the York County Planning Division. At the time the first permanent English colony in the New World was established at Jamestown in 1607, the region was occupied by Algonquin-speaking Powhatan Indians. These natives, whose subsistence was supported by agriculture supplemented by hunting, fishing and foraging, lived in settlements located along the major streams and rivers of the peninsula. It is estimated that over 13,000 Indians inhabited the coastal plain region of Virginia at the beginning of the 17th Century. Initial amicable relations with the Indians during the first decade of English settlement declined as cultural differences and the English desire for increased land ownership created conflicts.
