Hogmanay Rituals: Scotland’S New Year’S Eve Celebrations
Accepted Manuscript of a book chapter published by Routledge Suggested citation: Frew, E. & Mair. J. (2014). Hogmanay Rituals: Scotland’s New Year’s Eve Celebrations. In Frost, W. & Laing, J. (Eds) Rituals and traditional events in the modern world. Routledge Hogmanay Rituals: Scotland’s New Year’s Eve Celebrations Elspeth A. Frew La Trobe University Judith Mair Department of Management Monash University ABSTRACT Hogmanay, which is the name given to New Year’s Eve in Scotland, is a long-standing festival with roots going far back into pagan times. However, such festivals are losing their traditions and are becoming almost generic public celebrations devoid of the original rites and rituals that originally made them unique. Using the framework of Falassi’s (1987) festival rites and rituals, this chapter utilises a duoethnographic approach to examine Hogmanay traditions in contemporary Scotland and the extent to which these have been transferred to another country. The chapter reflects on the traditions which have survived and those that have been consigned to history. Hogmanay and Paganism: Scotland’s New Year’s Eve Celebrations INTRODUCTION New Year’s Eve (or Hogmanay as it is known in Scotland) is celebrated in many countries around the world, and often takes the form of a public celebration with fireworks, music and a carnival atmosphere. However, Hogmanay itself is a long-standing festival in Scotland with roots going far back into pagan times. Some of the rites and rituals associated with Hogmanay are centuries old, and the tradition of celebrating New Year Eve (as Hogmanay) on a grander scale than Christmas has been a part of Scottish life for many hundreds of years. -

Tales Behind the Tunes Played by Brampton Community Band Martin
Tales Behind the Tunes played by Brampton Community Band Martin Coslett Introduction Towards the end of 2018, my first session with Brampton Community Band was nerve wracking. I had printed out the music for the list they had sent but was not expecting the onslaught of tunes and at such fast tempos! Of course, they were designed for people to dance to so had to be at specific speeds. As eventually an accepted member of the band I was fortunate to play at quite a few church halls and birthday ceilidh’s before the pandemic came to haunt us and stopped the dancing. Half an Hour with the Brampton Community Band Brampton Community Band - ‘the brainchild of Peter Gray’ - recorded a CD at Donut Studios Chesterfield in 2012 of the following tunes: 1. Morgan Rattler/Banish Misfortune 2. Napoleon Crossing the Rhine/Jimmy Garson’s March 3. Woodland Revels 4. The Swallow’s Nest/Calliope House 5. The Greenwood Tree/Northern Light 6. The Tenpenny Bit/The Blackthorn stick 7. John Ryan’s Polka/Dennis Murphy’s Polka 8. The Bishop/Jack Maggot 9. The Gentle Maiden/Road to Lisdoonvarna/O’Keefe’s Slide British music and English folk music includes a variety of important musical styles including dance music like that used in Morris dancing (see types below) as well as sea shanties and other sung genres. From early medieval days tunes were carried from place to place by minstrels who passed on the news of the day in story form (true and ‘fake’) At least one of the tunes included here can be dated back as far as 1046 - Morgan Rattler. -
Newsletter 44
Newsletter Hartlepool & District U3A New Year Edition, Issue 44, January 2021 Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Comments from the Chair First of all, greetings to you all and I hope you enjoy the festive period Things are definitely looking more optimistic for the new year with more vaccines becoming ready for distribution. I know that some of our members have already had their first jab, so things are definitely going in the right direction. It is important not to get too far ahead of ourselves as it will be a huge undertaking to get everyone vaccinated before we can return to something approaching normal life. With this in mind, the Committee has decided that we need to hold the AGM that has been held over since June. Obviously, we cannot have a face-to-face meeting so we will be holding a 'virtual' AGM on Friday February 5th 2021 at 2 pm. We will be sending out all the relevant documentation required in mid-January by email and by post to give you all plenty of time to scrutinise them. The virtual meeting will be held via Zoom and every member is invited to join. We want to encourage as many members as possible to join and we can offer help if you need it. Phil has kindly offered to help members who are new to Zoom the week before the AGM. Further details will follow. By the time you read this, the latest TAT newsletter will have been sent out and you can also book Introduction to Zoom sessions via a link in this latest edition. -

Mount Moriah Cemetery: Revitalizing a Southwest Philadelphia Asset
Mount Moriah Cemetery: Revitalizing a Southwest Philadelphia Asset Casey Diaz, Sierra Hall, Adam Horn, Samantha Jeune, Ryan Kelly, Katerina Krohn, Colleen Quinn, Patrick Roehm, and Claire Rossi Mayor’s Internship Program August 12, 2016 2 Contents Introduction 3 History of Mount Moriah 3 Maps and Cemetery Association 7 Community Engagement 9 Program Analysis and Opportunities at Mt. Moriah 11 Grants and Funding 13 Conclusion 15 3 Introduction Mount Moriah is a historic cemetery located in Southwest Philadelphia’s Kingsessing neighborhood. Once a picturesque and spanning rural cemetery, Mount Moriah closed in 2011 and its maintenance has since been neglected. The Friends of Mount Moriah Cemetery is a volunteer group dedicated to preserving the cemetery, both as a way to honor those buried there, and because of the opportunities the cemetery offers as a historical site, natural sanctuary, and community green space. The Friends have a clear vision for Mount Moriah, but need resources to achieve these goals. During the last ten weeks, the Mount Moriah Project interns have tackled multiple projects for the cemetery, including generating the first map of all the cemeteries in Philadelphia, assembling data on over 150 burials, gauging community interest in using the cemetery as a green space, researching programming opportunities and developing connections with potential partners, and exploring and evaluated grant opportunities. The following is a summary of the future of Mount Moriah and potential the cemetery can offer as a community space, with support from the City. I. History of Mount Moriah Located in Southwest Philadelphia, Mount Moriah Cemetery is a hidden historic gem clouded by years of neglect.
