Our website: www.indianafolkmusic.org March Snacks courtesy of Lew Mastin and Susie Kraeszig. Thank you! A Message From Our President, Dave Tucker Spring has sprung. Or more accurately, by the time our March meeting convenes, we will have sprung forward for daylight savings time, meaning that at least one absent minded member will show up for Performance Hour just in time for Big Band Practice. If you enjoy listening to music as much as you enjoy playing it with the Folk Music Society, I have some suggestions for you on new music. The Punch Brothers resemble a traditional string band -- guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle and standup bass. Lead by the virtuoso mandolin player, Chris Thile, the Punch Brothers stay true to the traditional string band format, while using their enormous talents to also make music like a jazz quintet or a classical ensemble. Honoring old time music, and at the same time transcending it, the Punch Brothers new release, Phosphorescent Blues, is a real treat for traditionalists and new music fans alike. You may never tell another banjo joke again if you listen to Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn, the new release from, you guessed it, Bella Fleck and Abigail Washburn. Fleck has been a notorious banjo talent since the late 1970’s, and Washburn is a relatively new talent. Washburn is steeped in Chinese as well as American folk music, and she has a captivating soprano voice. Plus, this banjo-playing duo is a married couple ofstage. Rhiannon Giddens is best known as lead singer and fiddler for the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Giddens brings her considerable talent to her first solo release, Tomorrow Is My Turn. Giddens is another artist who bows to tradition, and yet she is squarely in the 21st Century. This T. Bone Burnett produced release is sure appear on many music critics Best of 2015 lists. I can’t confirm that Ben Wendel, a jazz composer and saxophone player, is incorporating our monthly musical themes into his current online project, The Seasons. Wendel is releasing a new composition with a diferent collaborator each month in 2015 on his website www.benwendel.com, titled “January”, “February”, and so on. If Wendel’s song “March” conjures up images of our monthly musical theme, childhood, we’ll have our answer. Don’t forget to spring your clocks forward, and we’ll see you on time on March 8.

    “…the most remarkable mandolinist in the world.” —Independent (London) Chris Thile Wednesday, November 4 The Englert Theatre Hancher University of Iowa 2 CHRIS THILE Multiple Grammy Award-winner and MacArthur Fellow Chris Thile, a member of Punch Brothers and Nickel Creek, is a mandolin virtuoso, composer, and vocalist. With his broad outlook that encompasses classical, rock, jazz, and bluegrass, Thile transcends the borders of conventionally circumscribed genres, creating a distinctly American canon and a new musical aesthetic for performers and audiences alike. As a soloist, Thile has released five albums including his most recent released in 2013, Bach: Partitas and Sonatas, Vol.1, which was produced by renowned bassist Edgar Meyer. In February 2013, Thile won a Grammy for his work on The Goat Rodeo Sessions, collaborating with Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, and Stuart Duncan. Then, in September 2014, Thile and Meyer released their latest album collaboration, Bass + Mandolin, which won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album. Punch Brothers released their latest album, The Phosphorescent Blues, in January 2015. On this new program, Thile performs solo violin works by J.S. Bach on the mandolin, as well as his own compositions and contemporary music. Selections will be announced from the stage. 3 Las Cafeteras Meets Iowa at the Corner of Art and Activism Las Cafeteras participated in a range of activities during their weeklong residency with Hancher, which focused on celebrating diversity, building and strengthening communities, and sharing the Latino cultural traditions of Son Jarocho. In advance of their September 25th Club Hancher performance, the group visited with third and fourth graders at Lucas Elementary, English Language Learners at City High School, and theatre, arts management, history, and rhetoric students at the University of Iowa.

    NOTIONS OF NATION: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY A Thesis by JORDAN L. LANEY Submitted to the Graduate School at Appalachian State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2013 Department of Appalachian Studies NOTIONS OF NATIONS: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY A Thesis by JORDAN LANEY May 2013 APPROVED BY: Nancy S. Love Chairperson, Thesis Committee David Haney Member, Thesis Committee Fred Hay Member, Thesis Committee Patricia D. Beaver Director, Center for Appalachian Studies Edelma D. Huntley Dean, Cratis Williams Graduate School Copyright by Jordan L. Laney 2013 All Rights Reserved Abstract NOTIONS OF NATIONS: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY Jordan L. Laney B.F.A., Goddard College M.A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Nancy S. Love While bluegrass music has been a topic of conversation within the discipline of Appalachian Studies, research concerning the emergence of the community in cyberspace is relatively rare. Appalachian music’s role as a transnational facilitator is groundbreaking in areas of social networking, and as a member of the bluegrass community, I am fascinated by the communication that results now that members of that community can connect to friends in Europe, Japan, and France as easily as to next door neighbors. Noting that music is what brings these individuals together, this study addresses ways in which the bluegrass community embodies an imagined community and uses political language to gather in cyberspace. The study is not meant to discredit the direct ties the music has to Appalachia, but rather to applaud and understand the work of enthusiasts in the field who have found ways to mobilize the music through the Internet.

  • Ringing Bell Or Smoke Machine: Technology and Authenticity in the Punch Brothers’ “Familiarity”
    Ringing Bell or Smoke Machine: Technology and Authenticity in the Punch Brothers’ “Familiarity” Kevin Laskey MUS 568 Professor Matthew Barnson th May 18 , 2015 In June 1933, John Lomax and his son Alan departed Washington, D.C. in an old Ford automobile, embarking on a cross-country trip. In the trunk was a 350-pound Dictaphone recorder, provided by the American Council of Learned Societies and the Library of Congress’s Archive of American Folk Song. Under the auspices of these groups, the Lomaxes were to travel across the United States and document the nation’s musical culture.1 Unlike academically-trained anthropologists, the Lomaxes did not exactly document this musical culture as they found it. John and Alan were looking for what they considered authentic American folk music, uncorrupted by the commerce and technology of modern society. According to music historian Karl Hagstrom Miller, when the Lomaxes met a local musician on their trip, they “…didn’t ask, 'Share the songs that you enjoy singing.' [They] asked for them to find songs that fit into [their] idea of old time folk songs.”2 In particular, they looked to record “the Negro who had the least contact with jazz, the radio, and with the white man… [who] heard only the idiom of their own race.”3 For that reason, the Lomaxes looked for folk materials on the outskirts of American musical culture—jails in particular. The “discovery” that the Lomaxes were most excited about on their 1933 trip was a singer and guitarist named Huddie Ledbetter—better known as “Lead Belly”—an inmate at Louisiana’s Angola Prison.

  • Kauffman Adds Event
    Kauffman adds event ACOUSTIC QUINTET PUNCH BROTHERS JOINS THE 2018-2019 KAUFFMAN CENTER PRESENTS SERIES The genre-bending group will perform September 9 in Muriel Kauffman Theatre Kansas City, MO – Today, the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts announced Punch Brothers will perform September 9 in Muriel Kauffman Theatre, as part of the 2018-2019 Kauffman Center Presents series. Punch Brothers are the acoustic quintet of mandolinist Chris Thile, guitarist Chris Eldridge, bassist Paul Kowert, banjoist Noam Pikelny and violinist Gabe Witcher. Says the Washington Post, “With enthusiasm and experimentation, Punch Brothers take bluegrass to its next evolutionary stage, drawing equal inspiration from the brain and the heart.” The band combines instrumental wizardry with playful storytelling, pushing genre boundaries to make music like no one else. Tickets for the event range from $29 to $59 plus applicable fees and go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. Friday, March 2. Tickets will be available through the Kauffman Center Box Office at (816) 994-7222, via the Kauffman Center mobile app, or online at www.kauffmancenter.org. ABOUT PUNCH BROTHERS Punch Brothers formed in 2006. The band’s first Nonesuch record, Punch, was released in 2008 and combined elements of their many musical interests. In 2009, they began a residency at NYC’s intimate club, Living Room, trying out new songs and ultimately spawning the GRAMMY-nominated Antifogmatic (2010). In 2012, the band releasedWho’s Feeling Young Now?, which Q praised for its “astonishing, envelope-pushing vision,” while Rolling Stone said, “The acoustic framework dazzles – wild virtuosity used for more than just virtuosity.” The band’s most recent album, the T Bone Burnett-produced, The Phosphorescent Blues (released in 2015 on Nonesuch Records), addresses with straight-up poignancy and subversive humor the power and the pitfalls of our super-connected world.

    2021-2022 SEASON AND ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DEAR FRIENDS, We are so excited to present the upcoming 2021-2022 Arts at Queens season to you. In many ways, the past year has proven how the arts are such a vital part of our lives. Despite not being able to present a full calendar of in-person events, “Creativity exhibits and performances, Arts at Queens continued to bring engaging, thought- provoking and enlightening opportunities for our students and citizens. takes courage.” - HENRI MATISSE Even though we were physically distanced, we still came together — albeit creatively. I want to share just a sampling of the ways in which students and faculty of Queens connected with their peers, with the broader artistic community and with the world. Remote learning resulted in an uplifting video performance during the holiday season by the Queens Chamber Singers and Choral Union produced in collaboration with Paula Azuaje ‘20 of the Knight School of Communication. As part of our annual Faculty Showcase, Queens arts faculty joined artists and fellows from the Penland School of Craft to present EXPLORATIONS in our Gambrell Center galleries. Students visiting the exhibit perused a variety of medium, color, line and design, and then translated their experiences with written reflections and creative narratives. Acclaimed poet Marcus Jackson led a Writing of Poetry workshop attended by Creative Literacy students and others from the English and Creative Writing Department, where he discussed writing and the creative process. Access to visiting writers enables students to not only gain real-world knowledge but also provides them with creative inspiration.
