  • The Process of Creating the First Pan-European Shakuhachi Summer
    The process of creating the first Pan-European Shakuhachi Summer School with Koto and Shamisen SOAS, University of London 19th-22nd July 2006 From an organiser’s viewpoint. By Kiku Day Photo: Christiane Werner The Shakuhachi Summer School with Koto and Shamisen was part of the SOAS World Music Summer Schools series. SOAS was a perfect environment for this first attempt at a large shakuhachi event, and I feel strongly that many forces came together and made this year a perfect time for this important first shakuhachi event to happen at SOAS. I contacted the music department at SOAS regarding hosting a shakuhachi summer school for the first time in September 2002 after having participated in the World Shakuhachi Festival in Tokyo and Klezfest (one week of klezmer music classes and events). However, SOAS still didn’t have a Music Summer School yet. I graduated from SOAS with a BA in ethnomusicology in 2003 and left England to do a Master degree in performance in California, USA. When I returned and registered in September 2005 the following came together like a natural force: • SOAS has one of the leading departments in ethnomusicology in Europe and is in possession of six koto and five shamisen. • SOAS had had two successful Music Summer Schools and was therefore in a much better position than earlier to host such an event. • Michael Coxall, a Yamaguchi Goro student and excellent shakuhachi performer, who teaches at SOAS was very enthusiastic and willing to co-organise this crazy project. • An active Japanese Music Society was created and led by Arisawa Shino in Sept.

  • 4.5.1 Los Abducidos: El Duro Retorno En Expediente X Se Duda De Si Las
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de Documents de la UAB 4.5.1 Los abducidos: El duro retorno En Expediente X se duda de si las abducciones son obra de humanos o de extraterrestres por lo menos hasta el momento en que Mulder es abducido al final de la Temporada 7. La duda hace que el encuentro con otras personas que dicen haber sido abducidas siempre tenga relevancia para Mulder, Scully o ambos, como se puede ver con claridad en el caso de Cassandra Spender. Hasta que él mismo es abducido se da la paradójica situación de que quien cree en la posibilidad de la abducción es él mientras que Scully, abducida en la Temporada 2, siempre duda de quién la secuestró, convenciéndose de que los extraterrestres son responsables sólo cuando su compañero desaparece (y no necesariamente en referencia a su propio rapto). En cualquier caso poco importa en el fondo si el abducido ha sido víctima de sus congéneres humanos o de alienígenas porque en todos los casos él o ella cree –con la singular excepción de Scully– que sus raptores no son de este mundo. Como Leslie Jones nos recuerda, las historias de abducción de la vida real que han inspirado este aspecto de Expediente X “expresan una nueva creencia, tal vez un nuevo temor: a través de la experimentación sin emociones realizada por los alienígenas usando cuerpos humanos adquiridos por la fuerza, se demuestra que el hombre pertenece a la naturaleza, mientras que los extraterrestres habitan una especie de supercultura.” (Jones 94).

  • Vf & Tso Mofo Mr
    VIOLENT FEMMES AND THE TASMANIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA World Premiere Monday 22 & Tuesday 23 January Due to popular demand Mona Foma today announced an extra show for the world premiere of the Violent Femmes performing with the TSO. For two nights only, the Violent Femmes will take their acoustic punk-rock and work with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to reimagine it as a full orchestra experience. Conducted by Hamish McKeich they’ll perform a long list of cult classics such as Add It Up, Blister In The Sun, Kiss Off, Gone Daddy Gone, American Song and Gimme The Car at The Federation Concert Hall on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 January. “Most rock bands would blow off an orchestra with the amplifiers, but for these two shows we’re prepared to back off on the volume and actually play almost at the same volume as the orchestra musicians and create a more unified approach, “ said Brian Ritchie. The Violent Femmes were formed in 1981 as an acoustic band playing on the streets of Milwaukee. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Enduring a couple of hiatuses throughout their 36-plus year career, the band — original members Gordon Gano and Brian Ritchie, along with drummer John Sparrow have been performing steadily since reuniting again in 2013. The TSO’s performance with the Violent Femmes represents another innovative collaboration for the orchestra, which in 2017 alone has seen sold out concerts with vocal star Kate Miller-Heidke, a Dark MOFO collaboration with Norwegian metal band Ulver, an original show with comedy trio Tripod and a sold out concert with ARIA award-winning and multi-platinum artist Megan Washington.
