Fearis Theater Latté Da 3 Creating Steerage Song It’s hard to pinpoint where ideas come from. Maybe the idea for Steerage Song came to me on a trip to Ellis Island. I found myself astounded with the enormity of the place and the enormity of the choices made by the millions who passed through its gates. Or perhaps the idea came from my frustration with our current immigration system and its lack of compassion and integrity. I desperately want this land of promise to exercise its promise. But most likely the idea came from my mother and her love of Irish song. For me, where you come from has always been linked to music, and I thank my mother for that. This Song’s for her. ~ Peter rothstein As one who counts among his favorite roles those of saloon piano player and European street accordionist, I felt no hesitation when Peter Rothstein suggested many months ago that we write a show together based on immigrant folk songs and immigrant-associated Tin Pan Alley tunes. Music was my point of entry to this research-and-writing project, but beyond the music was history and a world I knew only on its surface, from the depleted and politically unstable landscape of late-1800s Europe on through the profiteering transatlantic steamship lines and the robust squalor of New York’s Lower East Side. After walking those streets, scrolling through the miles of microfilm and shuffling the piles of music, I’m grateful to be here with you and with this cast, offering a bit of what we’ve learned. ~ Dan Chouinard special thanks We would like to thank our language consultants for their valuable contribution to the creative process: Agata Dittfurth (Polish), Elina Kala (Finnish), Eva Kish (Hungarian), Goran Alachki (Macedonian), Judith Eisner & Yiddish Theater Group, Minneapolis JCC (Yiddish), Ksenija Rener Sitar (Slovenian), Mark Sedio (Slovak), Myrianthi Aristodemou Salovich (Greek), Nancy Stenson (Scots Gaelic), Natalie Nowytski (Ukrainian), Tiziana Bales (Italian).

  • President Global Minnesota
    presents President Global Minnesota Ballinger | Leafblad is proud to present the following information on behalf of our client, Global Minnesota, in its search for a President. globalminnesota.org ballingerleafblad.com presenting our client Global Minnesota ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW The Global Minnesota story began in 1953 when it was founded as the International Center for Students and Visitors -- guided by the motto “They came as strangers – may they leave as friends.” Founded by Josef Mestenhauser, Bill Rogers, and Forrest Moore, the organization, later named the Minnesota International Center (MIC), was created as a partnership between the community and the University of Minnesota that engaged ‘Citizen Diplomats’ to connect Minnesotans with visiting students and scholars. It was believed that diplomacy was not the exclusive domain of professional diplomats, but that all walks of society could be involved in international relations. After its founding, MIC evolved from direct service into a multifaceted nonpartisan organization with a mission to promote international understanding and engagement through globally-focused educational opportunities for Minnesota residents of all ages. In March 2016, MIC was rebranded as Global Minnesota to better reflect who it is, what it does, and the dynamic and culturally-diverse state it serves. In 2017, Global Minnesota reached more than 6,000 people through public events, created more than 3,600 hours of meaningful cross-cultural interactions in elementary classrooms across the state, and welcomed nearly 500 international visitors to Minnesota. Today, Global Minnesota is considered to be one of the top affiliates of the World Affairs Councils of America. It is a proud member of Global Ties U.S., the nonprofit arm of the U.S.

This is part of the Minnesota Bluegrass Oral History Project, and we are at KBEM radio, using the microphones and everything. We are not employed here; we are independent contractors here. KB: But we control the place right now! [Laughing] It is under our control. PN: So, we're here to talk about Kevin's experience in Bluegrass in Minnesota. How did you get started with Bluegrass music? KB: It's funny, because, again, my roots go to Kentucky. I was born in Louisville, Kentucky. I used to travel down, my grandparents lived in western Kentucky, around Hopkinsville, Kentucky - Crofton area, an area that was actually fairly close to Paducah, so, pretty close to where Bill Monroe was from. My uncles - my dad's brothers - were farmers, so, as a kid, I can remember traveling down to the farm, and they'd all be talkin' about the Opry. They'd be talkin' about hearing Mack Wiseman, or they'd be talkin' about, “Oh, did you hear Bill Monroe on last week, and he did this really funny skit.” So, I can even remember as a kid, my family talkin' about Bluegrass music. Before that, and before I played banjo, my grandmother used to talk about her grandmother, actually it's too bad I don't have a - you should see the picture, her name was Algie Hickey from Crofton, Kentucky. She was a seamstress and she was a musician; she was a banjo player, played a 5-string, I've got a photo of her when she's about… PN: This is the grandmother of the grandmother… KB: Yes.
