Guitar-Now-Program.Pdf WORDS OF WELCOME When something is too good to be true, it may be promoted as "no strings attached." Today, however, all strings are not only well secured, but they are humming with beautiful airs, having been set in motion by talented musicians. A conclave of expert guitarists will certainly find a warm welcome at Carleton University. We are proud of our talented faculty including James Wright, Roddy Ellias and Wayne Eagles who put their minds together to create this event. At Carleton we have a particular fondness for interdisciplinarity so, this featured myriad of styles is most appropriate. Our musicians dlve daily into history, global, cultural influences, and brilliant interpretations. They have prepared this audience well for the international stars joining us. Carleton is located at the confluence of the Rideau Canal and Rideau River. Between the UNESCO heritage site recognizing the past and a rapid stream racing confidently to the future, Carleton provides a beautiful, natural setting from which you will find inspiration. On behalf of all my colleagues, I welcome you warmly. Sincerely yours, Roseann O'Reilly Runte President, Carleton University It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Guitar Now 2013, a celebration of music and guitars which brings together a variety of styles and musicians of all levels for an outstanding weekend of workshops and performances and everything in between. One of the greatest joys in music is to listen and connect with other musicians, to share and discover new styles and different approaches. Guitar Now has gathered guitarists from all over the world, as well as local and regional performers, whose styles range from country picking to classical to contemporary improvisation. Not only are they world class performers, they are world class people. I expect the musical encounters which are not scheduled will likely be just as amazing as the ones which are, and so I encourage all of you to learn, to share, and of course, to listen. On behalf of Carleton University, and especially music faculty members James Wright, Wayne Eagles and myself, may I wish you a musical weekend you will never forget. Roddy Ellias Convener, Guitar Now 2013 Associate Performance Faculty Member Carleton University It’s both a great pleasure and a great honour for the Music program within Carleton University’s School for Studies in Art and Culture (SSAC) to play host to Guitar Now 2013 . This three-day event, organized by faculty members within SSAC-Music and welcoming a glittering roster of internationally acclaimed performers, embraces and explores an impressively eclectic range of guitar styles, offering both workshops and performances open to anyone and everyone interested in one of the world’s most ubiquitous and popular musical instruments. As director of the School I extend a very warm Carleton and Ottawa welcome to all presenters and attendees of Guitar Now 2013 . Brian Foss, Director School for Studies in Art and Culture Carleton University Welcome to Guitar Now 2013, arguably the first eclectic guitar gathering of its kind in Canada! Colleagues Roddy Ellias and Wayne Eagles have brought together a stellar lineup of leading guitarists from L.A., Brazil, New York, Europe and across Canada for what promises to be an inspiring and memorable series of clinics, concerts and jam sessions. We are honored by your presence, and we are delighted to be your hosts for the next three days. Let the music begin! James Wright Associate Professor & Supervisor of Performance Studies School for Studies in Art & Culture (Music) Carleton University A sincere welcome to the Guitar Now 2013 weekend! Get set for a remarkable few days of workshops and performances from a diverse and talented group of guitarists. A great many thanks to Roddy Ellias for his focused direction and to James Wright for his unwavering support. We also extend much gratitude to faculty at Carleton University’s Music department, the staff at Kailash Mital Theatre, our many volunteers, and our most generous sponsors.

  • Press Coverage That the Scranton Jazz Festival Has Received
    scrantonjazzfestival.org SCRANTON JAZZ FESTIVAL ABOUT This summer The Scranton Jazz Festival will celebrate its 11th year at the historic Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel and various downtown Scranton venues. Attracting international, national, and regional jazz/blues and world beat artists, the SJF has proven its true potential to become a long-term musical event. Only with your support, does the festival continue to have the opportunity for an enormous impact on the cultural and economic development of our region. Fostering America’s original art form, jazz, Scranton has a rich history, dating back to the 1930’s when two jazz legends, Tommy Dorsey and Jimmy Dorsey, performed regularly with the Scranton Sirens Jazz Band. Our area is also credited with hosting the first known recorded jazz festival, “The Cavalcade of Dixieland Jazz”, in 1951. Since its premiere in 2005 the festival has drawn audiences from the entire Mid-Atlantic region, resulting in tremendous notoriety and exposure to the international jazz world. The SJF can help revive our region as a cultural epicenter, spreading the arts throughout the northeast, no different than such festivals as Newport, Rhode Island; Saratoga Springs, Florida; and Monterey, California. With your generosity, to support this program, we will be able to significantly enrich our community and region. Your donation will help us to defer costs for production, artists fees, advertising, and promotional expenses. In addition, your contribution will enable us to receive matching funds, provided by local and state funding organiza- tions. Together, as a united team, we can make artistic magic happen for Scranton. How incredible would it be to see this festival, in time, be considered a major summer destination place for the jazz/blues and world beat community? Only with your help will that magic happen.

    FIRST NATIONS POPULAR MUSIC IN CANADA: IDENTITY, POLITICS AND MUSICAL MEANING by CHRISTOPHER ALTON SCALES B.A., University of Guelph, 1990 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES School of Music We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 1996 * © Christopher Alton Scales In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of M0S \ C The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date flffoL 3.6 Rqfe DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT In this thesis, First Nations popular music is examined as a polysemic sign (or symbolic form) whose meaning is mediated both socially and politically. Native popular music is a locus for the action of different social forces which interact in negotiating the nature and the meaning of the music. Music is socially meaningful in that it provides a means by which people construct and recognize social and cultural identities. As such, First Nations popular music functions as an emblem of symbolic differentiation between Canadian natives and non-natives. Native pop music plays host to a number of political meanings embedded in this syncretic musical form.

  • JAZZ EDUCATION in ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN a Thesis Submitted to The
    JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History and Research written under the direction of Dr. Henry Martin and approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May,2017 ©2017 Lee Caplan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL By LEE CAPLAN Thesis Director Dr. Henry Martin Jazz Education in Israel is indebted to three key figures – Zvi Keren, Arnie Lawrence, and Mel Keller. This thesis explores how Jazz developed in Israel and the role education played. Jazz Education in Israel discusses the origin of educational programs such as the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music (1985) and the New School Jazz Program (1986). One question that was imperative to this study was attempting to discover exactly how Jazz became a cultural import and export within Israel. Through interviews included in this thesis, this study uncovers just that. The interviews include figures such as Tal Ronen, Dr. Arnon Palty, Dr. Alona Sagee, and Keren Yair Dagan. As technology gets more advanced and the world gets smaller, Jazz finds itself playing a larger role in humanity as a whole. iii Preface The idea for this thesis came to me when I was traveling abroad during the summer of 2015. I was enjoying sightseeing throughout the streets of Ben Yehuda Jerusalem contemplating topics when all of a sudden I came across a jam session. I went over to listen to the music and was extremely surprised to find musicians from all parts of Europe coming together in a small Jazz venue in Israel playing bebop standards at break-neck speeds.

    EWAN DOBSON Ewan Dobson has established himself as one of Canada’s accomplished guitarists, having won first prize in many guitar competitions across the country. His impressive list of credentials include winning the Grand Prizes from both the Burlington Rotary Fall Music Festival and the Pickering Rotary Music Festival where he emerged victorious, after having competed against the top prize winners of all of the other disciplines. In addition to dominating the provincial competition circuit, Dobson has made his mark nationally having represented Ontario twice at the National Finals of the prestigious Canadian Music Competitions (CMC) and having been awarded the top prize in guitar. In the summer of 2009, Dobson was crowned the Canadian Fingerstyle Guitar Champion at the prestigious 5th annual Canadian Fingerstyle Guitar Competition held in Kingston, Ontario. Shortly after this victory, he captured another first prize in the acoustic category at the 4th Montreal Guitar Grand Prix. However, the highlight of this season took place when he caught the attention of the world by capturing 3rd place at the 38th International Fingerstyle Guitar Championship held in Winfield, Kansas. In addition to his hectic competition history, Dobson has performed at many prestigious venues across Ontario including Hammerson Hall in Mississauga’s Living Arts Centre, the George Weston Recital Hall in the Toronto Centre for the Performing Arts and his recital debut in the Royal Bank Theatre of the Living Arts Centre under the auspices of the Chamber Music Society of Mississauga to name but a few. A versatile artist, he has been featured on many television programs on Rogers and CityTV and was in the top 10 on CKXU 88.3 FM Lethbridge, AB.
