She founded or helped found a string of folkloric companies in the San Francisco Bay Area that inspired similar organizations up and down the state. In 1969, Cashion and longtime partner Ramón Morones co-founded Los Lupeños de San José, which in its heyday in the 1970s enjoyed a reputation as the elite folkloric dance group in California, on par with professional companies in Mexico. In 1980 Cashion received an award from the Mexican government “for significant contributions to the culture and teaching of Mexican folklore in the United States of America.” Susan was on the Stockton Folk Dance Camp faculty five times – 1971, 1972, 1984, 1989 and 1990. Narcisco “Pampa” Cortés 1946 – 2014 At the beginning of the 1970s, Juan Carlos Copes, a big name in tango at that time, arrived one night at Caño 14 in Buenos Aires, one of the most famous places to hear and see tango. There he discovered Pampa Cortés. From that time on, Pampa was a member of his company and ultimately became the Assistant Choreographer. He was the youngest performer in all the companies in which he danced and he danced in many. In Argentina, he founded his own company, Ballet Pampa.

Thank you very much. We're Zlatne Uste. Thank you very much. Nobody's Serbian though. Nobody's Serbian, but you guys are so authentic. Thank you, thank you. You made my year, Michael. Still good after all these years! Lower Third: Michael Ginsburg Middle School Gym Teacher Hello, I'm Michael Ginsburg and I am the director of Zlatne Uste, and have been since its beginnings in 1983. "Zlatne Uste," is that a Serbian… It's kind of a pan… it's not correct Serbian… It's grammatically incorrect Serbian. What does it translate to roughly? Well, umm… Golden Lips. Ah, very good. Okie doke. Time to go. Next set. 6'50" That was Demiran's Cocek. And it was named after Demiran Cerimovic the leader of the Pearls of Vranje. This is one of the bands we studied with in Serbia. We play as close to the Serbian style of playing as we can. Lower Third: Emerson Hawley Retired Biomedical Engineer Not that we succeed, but we try as hard as we can to be really hard on attacks and make some parts percussive.

  • Noesintro For
    Kaminsky, David. 2015. “Introduction: The New Old Europe Sound.” Ethnomusicology Forum 24(2): 143–158. Introduction For all that ‘world music’ as a commercial genre purports to represent the entire planet in its diversity, it has always consisted of components selected for the effectiveness with which their musical and cultural capital can be transformed into economic capital. Given that the cultural capital of ethnic and national identity is not a consistent commodity, but rather subject to the vagaries of global geopolitics, it follows that trends in commercial world music can function as an indicator of geopolitical shifts. The essays in this volume all engage with a recent major development on the world music scene—one that has not previously received focused scholarly attention—as well as its attendant geopolitical implications. In the 1990s, Celtic fiddles, pipes and voices were the iconic sounds of European world music. Over the past quarter century, however, this music has slowly declined on the global stage and been replaced by an East European bricolage—Balkan, Romani and klezmer music, and, perhaps most significantly, the generic mixing of all three. Commercial world music has not given a name to this trend, but for our purposes we have come to call it the ‘New Old Europe Sound’. [143/144] Ethnomusicologists who have treated this music to date have tended to approach it from the context of a constituent genre—Gypsy punk, European neo-klezmer or Balkan brass, for example—without explicit acknowledgment of a more general trend. Yet a number of family resemblances in these apparently disparate revivals suggest the usefulness of taking a broader view: (1) Appropriation.
