  • Rick Dillingham Collection
    Rick Dillingham Collection New Mexico Museum of Art Library and Archives Introduction Rick Dillingham [hereinafter RD], whose full name was James Richard. Dillingham II, was born in Illinois in 1952. His college education during the years 1968 - 1976 secured him a Bachelor of Arts Degree at the University of New Mexico (1974) and a Master’s Degree from Claremont Graduate School, Scripps College, at Claremont, California (1976). His principal work as an artist was in the field of ceramics where he achieved international primacy . Representative pieces of his work are held in the Victoria Albert Museum in London, the National Museum of Ceramic Art in Baltimore, Maryland, the Smithsonian Institution, and the New Mexico Museum of Art in Santa Fe. He was best known, for his "broken pottery" technique involving the deliberate destruction of pottery made by him, the decoration and coloring of the shards, and their reconstruction when his artistic applications were completed. Scope and Content Note Part One presents scrapbooks, correspondence, announcements, catalogs, correspondence and other "paper records" and memorabilia. Part Two presents an enormous collection of photographs, 35mm slides, transparencies, postcards, and related material. Additional material is stored in the Collections Department of the New Mexico Museum of Art, and is accessible upon request. The Photography Archives of the Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe contain even more material. Juliet Myers' name appears throughout the Collection. She was the curator for and agent of RD, and frequently spoke in his name. RD suffered from AIDS during the latter part of his life, a malady referred to time and again in correspondence sent to him.

  • The Wanamaker Organ
    The Wanamaker Organ Where would you guess the largest operational pipe organ in the world would be located? Believe it or not, it is featured in a spacious 7-story court in Macy’s Center City (formerly Wanamaker’s department store) in Philadelphia, Pa. My wife, Lola, discovered it on a shopping trip while we were in the City of Brotherly Love for an American College of Health Care Administrators meeting last April, and promptly called Dr. Ken Scott and me to come see – and hear – it. The Wanamaker Organ is played twice a day, Monday through Saturday, and more frequently during the Christmas season. In its present configuration, the organ has 28,543 pipes in 462 ranks. The organ console consists of six manuals with an array of stops and controls that command the organ. The organ’s String Division forms the largest single organ chamber in the world. The instrument features 88 ranks of string pipes built by the W.W. Kimball Company of Chicago. The Wanamaker Organ was originally built by the Los Angeles Art Organ Company for the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, and designed to be the largest organ in the world. After the fair closed, the organ languished in storage until 1909 when it was bought by John Wanamaker for his new department store at 13th and Market streets in Center City, Philadelphia. John Wanamaker (1838 – 1922) was a merchant, religious leader, civic and political figure, considered by some to be the father of modern advertising. He opened his first store in 1861, called Oak Hall, at Sixth and Market streets in Philadelphia, on the site of George Washington’s Presidential Home.

    100 years of women voting The First Berlin Women Voters Research by Cathy Nelson Sarah Caliandri, Nelson, Librarian Emeritus, President Berlin-Peck Memorial Library Berlin Historical Society Kate Wall, Berlin Town Clerk Lorraine Stub, Secretary, Berlin Historical Society 1 Title photographs: Top: Freda and Ethel Lund atop Lamentation Mountain Left: Lillie Lindquist Right: Marie Stange Center: Pearl Woods Gate, 1st woman voter Oct. 4, 1920 Bottom: Inez Williams December 2020 2 100 years of women voting One hundred years ago, our grandmothers and great-grandmothers won the right to vote. It began in July1848 when 300 women gathered in Seneca Falls, New York for a convention that started the campaign to allow women to vote. The Women’s Rights Convention was led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucetia Mott, Mary McClintock, Mary Coffin Wright, and Jane Hunt. Many were also part of the anti-slavery cause. Susan B. Anthony met Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1851 and soon dedicated her life to women’s rights and anti-slavery. Elizabeth died in 1902 and Susan died in 1906. When these ladies died, they still could not vote. Meanwhile, the question of women voting was a worldwide issue. The first country to allow women to vote was New Zealand in 1893. New Zealand: 1893 Australia: 1902 Finland: 1906 Norway: 1913 Denmark: 1915 Russia: 1917 Canada: 1918 Armenia: 1919 Estonia: 1920 In 1893 Connecticut women were given the right to vote on Board of Education issues. In 1909 Connecticut women were given the right to vote on library issues. In Berlin, over the years, there probably were discussions and support for the women’s vote.

  • ALEXANDER, JOHN DAVID, D.M.A. a Study of the Influence of Texts From
    ALEXANDER, JOHN DAVID, D.M.A. A Study of the Influence of Texts from the Liber Usualis on Three Improvised French Organ Works by Marcel Dupré, Charles Tournemire, and Olivier Latry. (2020) Directed by Welborn Young and André Lash. 82 pp. Improvisation has played a vital role in the French school of organ playing over the last several centuries, both in sacred and secular settings. Within the context of Catholic masses in France, the majority of the music played by the organists is improvisational. Much of the thematic material of these improvisations comes from the service music contained in the Liber Usualis. This document explores the treatment of these themes from the Liber Usualis, particularly focusing on the impact of the text of each chant on three works by Marcel Dupré, Charles Tournemire, and Olivier Latry, three of the leading improvisateurs of the twentieth and twenty-first century. Studying published reconstructions of their improvisations based on themes from the Liber Usualis gives insight into their respective improvisational languages and the affect created by a thorough knowledge of the text of each Liber Usualis theme used. Following an introduction, a chapter is dedicated to each composer and his work: Marcel Dupré’s Symphonie-Passion, Charles Tournemire’s Choral-Improvisation sur le ‘Victimae Paschali,’ and Olivier Latry’s Salve Regina. Each of these chapters contains brief biographical information about the composer, an overview of the instrument on which the original improvisation was performed, a description of each work, and how the chant is incorporated into each. The final chapter contains a comparison of the three works, reexamining the impact of the chant text on rhythm, registration, dynamics, form, and texture.
