LASSETER May 2013 Copyright M.E. Lasseter 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This thesis traces the various physical and metaphorical journeys south of Chicago musician Andrew Bird. Using what historical record is publicly available, I examine Bird’s formal musical training. I then explore the years between 1995 and 2001, or what I call Bird’s period of apprenticeship. Next is an exploration of the canonical narratives surrounding the blues of the Mississippi Delta, especially the music of Charley Patton. When Andrew Bird encountered a canon, or dominant histories and meanings of Southern music that influence how musicians play and how audiences interpret that music, he began to react against that canon in his own compositions and performances.

  • Z53 Lytteltonreview August 20 2012
    “ lyttelton review “ lyttelton harbour community update www.lytteltonharbour.info 20 August 2012 Lyttel Soccer Scores Highly The Beautiful Game is Alive in Lyttelton It all started a few years ago when a couple of guys started to take their children down to the Lyttelton recreation ground on a Sunday morning to kick a ball around. Today this concept has evolved into an informal weekly soccer meet for over forty Lyttelton Harbour children. This week the Lyttelton Review talks to the organisers behind Lyttel Soccer, local residents Andrea Boggiani and Derek Sanders, and it doesn’t take long to reveal the enthusiasm, relentless energy and aspiring future goals these two have for Lyttel Soccer. At the base of their enthusiasm is the underlying philosophy that sporting activities for children should both be fun and free. There are zero membership costs and every child from three years to nine years is encouraged to join in. Some children arrive every week to play, others turn up less frequently. Naturally those who are regulars show the greatest improvement in their skills and every child that turns up, regardless of skill level, has time on the field. But for this group of soccer enthusiasts it is not about how often you play, it is all about having fun, and learning new skills. Andrea and Derek spend time off the field creating soccer drills for the children that are games and are fun. As a spectator, you can see this approach is clearly the secret of success. Watching the older children learn new strategies, listening to Coach Derek and shooting for goals while tripping over their own feet and bouncing back with a huge smile across their face is priceless.
