Solar powered, it charges in less than four hours and plays for up to two hours continuously. The high quality speaker is loud enough for as many as 200 people to hear the message of the Gospel—in their heart language. People with vision and hearing loss love listening, too! A transformed new believer becomes a “gentle” missionary to Hindi speaking women. India: Nima, an Indian woman, became a believer early in 2013. She was given a Hindi Talking Bible by a church planter and started listening to it daily in her home. Her neighbors, Hindus and Muslims, heard her playing the Talking Bible and wanted to listen too. By playing the Talking Bible, Nima became an evangelist to non-believing, unreached neighbor women. God is using Nima, a soft-spoken, shy, non- reader to do outreach to women who would never have heard the good news of God’s redeeming love without the Talking Bible. Will you help people like Nima expand the outreach of the Gospel this Christmas by making a gift to place Talking Bibles in areas untouched by the Word of God? Each Talking Bible costs only $35. Please go to our website to make your Christmas gift of one or more Talking Bibles so Jesus can be shared with those who walk in darkness. Please donate today at: www.talkingbibles.org.

  • Glass Hammer – Chronomonaut
    Glass Hammer – Chronomonaut (70:32, CD, Sound Resources /Just for Kicks, 2018) In Zeiten, in denen Trump´s Fake News die Gazetten beherrschen, ist es schon eine besondere Meldung wert, wenn endlich einmal gute Nachrichten vom nordamerikanischen Kontinent herüberschwappen. In diesem Fall betrifft es die neue Scheibe „Chronomonaut“ der US Progger Glass Hammer. 1992 gründeten die beiden Multiinstrumentalisten Steve Babb und Fred Schendel in Chattanooga (Tennessee) die Progressive Rockband. Als Ergebnis dieser langen, kreativen Zusammenarbeit ist eine beachtliche Liste an Veröffentlichungen entstanden. Getreu den Prog Gesetzen befassen sich Glass Hammer in ihren Texten häufig mit Szenarien der Fantasy-Literatur sowie mit religiösen Themen. Von Anfang an orientierten sich die Künstler musikalisch stark an Yes, Kansas, Emerson, Lake & Palmer und eben auch an den frühen Genesis. So prägten auch die genannten Vorbilder im Besonderen das Album „Chronometree“ aus dem Jahr 2000. Als eine fast nahtlose Fortsetzung kann man das jetzt 18 Jahre später erschienene Album „Chronomonaut“ betrachten. Zum Schutz Ihrer persönlichen Daten ist die Verbindung zu YouTube blockiert worden.

Im Gegenteil, sie besticht durch exzellente Kompositionen und einer qualitativ hochwertigen Umsetzung, dazu hervorragende Vocals, die sich besonders hervortun beim Harmoniegesang. Auf das in der Vergangenheit gewohnte Yes-Feeling wurde zwar nicht gänzlich verzichtet, doch der öfters laut werdende Vorwurf, ein Klon der Altherren zu sein, trifft in diesem Fall auf Glass Hammer keinesfalls zu.

  • Analyzing Gender Inequality in Contemporary Opera
    ANALYZING GENDER INEQUALITY IN CONTEMPORARY OPERA Hillary LaBonte A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS August 2019 Committee: Jane Schoonmaker Rodgers, Advisor Kristen Rudisill Graduate Faculty Representative Kevin Bylsma Ryan Ebright Emily Pence Brown © 2019 Hillary LaBonte All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jane Schoonmaker Rodgers, Advisor Gender inequality is pervasive in the world of performing arts. There are far more female dancers, actresses, and singers than there are male performers. This inequality is amplified by fewer numbers of roles for women. This document examines gender inequality in contemporary North American operas, including the various factors that can influence the gender balance of a cast, with focused studies on commissioning organizations and ten works that feature predominantly female casts. Chapter 1 presents the analysis of all operas in OPERA America’s North American Works database written and premiered from 1995 to the present. Of the 4,216 roles in this data, 1,842 (43.6%) are for female singers. Operas written by a female composer or librettist have 48% roles for female singers, operas with a female lead character have 51%, and intentionally feminist or female-focused operas have 53% roles for female singers. Chapter 2 considers ten companies devoted to the creation and production of contemporary opera in North America. Works premiered by these companies have an average of 47% roles for women, and companies with a female executive or founder are more likely to have a higher average. Companies that use language like “innovative” or “adventurous” in their mission statement are more likely to have greater female representation in the casts of their commissioned works.
