An Interview with Fred Hellerman Part II May 26, 2016 in This Interview Fred Is Joined by His Wife, Susan Lardner. Ken Edgar
An Interview with Fred Hellerman Part II May 26, 2016 In this interview Fred is joined by his wife, Susan Lardner. Ken Edgar: We are now back in Fred Hellerman's living room and we're continuing our conversation with Fred. We are joined today by Susan Lardner, Fred’s wife, who herself has a very interesting background and career. Together they are going to help us remember their lives in Weston, starting in around 1970. Susan, welcome to the show. When we last left our story we had talked about your arrival in Weston and how Harold Leventhal, the Weaver's manager, had purchased a home near Cobb's Mill and was influential in bringing you up here. As a result, you became interested in Weston and eventually bought the house in which we are sitting today. Susan: I checked with one of Harold's daughters and found out that he had bought his house in 1968 and Fred bought this house in 1969. Although Fred had been up here before visiting other people, he had not been in the house purchasing business. Fred Hellerman: Yeah, coming up there for a weekend. I just fell in love with that immediately. It was a very important place for me. Ken: In the summer of 1970, you two were married right here on this property. Fred: From here, yeah, at this house. Susan: Under the tree, by Euclid Shook. [A Weston artist a justice of the peace. –ed.] Ken: The New York Times did a very interesting description of your wedding. -
Pete Seeger, Songwriter and Champion of Folk Music, Dies at 94
Pete Seeger, Songwriter and Champion of Folk Music, Dies at 94 By Jon Pareles, The New York Times, 1/28 Pete Seeger, the singer, folk-song collector and songwriter who spearheaded an American folk revival and spent a long career championing folk music as both a vital heritage and a catalyst for social change, died Monday. He was 94 and lived in Beacon, N.Y. His death was confirmed by his grandson, Kitama Cahill Jackson, who said he died of natural causes at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. Mr. Seeger’s career carried him from singing at labor rallies to the Top 10 to college auditoriums to folk festivals, and from a conviction for contempt of Congress (after defying the House Un-American Activities Committee in the 1950s) to performing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial at an inaugural concert for Barack Obama. 1 / 13 Pete Seeger, Songwriter and Champion of Folk Music, Dies at 94 For Mr. Seeger, folk music and a sense of community were inseparable, and where he saw a community, he saw the possibility of political action. In his hearty tenor, Mr. Seeger, a beanpole of a man who most often played 12-string guitar or five-string banjo, sang topical songs and children’s songs, humorous tunes and earnest anthems, always encouraging listeners to join in. His agenda paralleled the concerns of the American left: He sang for the labor movement in the 1940s and 1950s, for civil rights marches and anti-Vietnam War rallies in the 1960s, and for environmental and antiwar causes in the 1970s and beyond. -

TRANSLATING PETE SEEGER: THE CHALLENGE OF RECREATING AN AMERICAN LEGEND IN ALL ITS POPULAR GLORY AND COMPLEXITY Dr. David Shea AIETI member Facultad de Traducción e Interpretación Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Abstract The oral historian Studs Terkel has called Pete Seeger “America’s tuning fork” and many US historians have referred to Seeger as America’s conscience. In this paper we consider the challenges of translating from English to Spanish Seeger’s unique musical autobiography Where Have All the Flowers Gone? (SingOut! Publications 1994) which has involved collaborating with Seeger (our suggested title of the as yet unpublished book, ¿Qué habrá sido de las flores?). The book is written in a folksy, easy to read style as Seeger discusses complex issues which concern US culture and politics, though not necessarily in that order. -

17th Biennial Conference of IASPM | Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Challenging Orthodoxies | Gijón 2013 Contents Welome 2 Conference programme 4 Abstracts 24 Panels 133 iaspm2013.espora.es 1 17th Biennial Conference of IASPM | Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Challenging Orthodoxies | Gijón 2013 Dear IASPM Conference Delegates, Welcome to Gijón, and to the 17th biennial IASPM Conference “Bridge over Troubled Waters”, a conference with participants from all over the world with the aim of bridging a gap between disciplines, perspectives and cultural contexts. We have received more than 500 submissions, of which some 300 made it to the programme, together with four outstanding keynote speakers. This Conference consolidates the increasing participation of Spanish delegates in previous conferences since the creation of the Spanish branch of IASPM in 1999, and reinforces the presence of Popular Music Studies at the Spanish universities and research groups. The University of Oviedo is one of the pioneer institutions in the Study of Popular Music in Spain; since the late nineties, this field of study is constantly growing due to the efforts of scholars and students that approach this repertoire from an interdisciplinary perspective. As for the place that hosts the conference, Gijón is an industrial city with an important music scene. I wouldn´t call it the Spanish Liverpool, but some critics called it the Spanish Seattle because it was an important place for the development of “noise music” in Spain during the 1990s. The venue, Laboral, is an exponent of the architecture of the dictatorship. Finished in 1956, it was conceived as a school for war orphans to learn a trade and in 2007 it was remodeled to become a “city for culture”. -

Weston Voices the Oral History Project of the Weston Historical Society
Weston Voices The Oral History Project of the Weston Historical Society An Interview with Fred Hellerman Part I: April 5, 2016 Fred Hellerman was known world-wide as a folk singer, guitarist, producer, and song writer. He was also an original members of The Weavers, one of the most famous and influential folk groups of the last half of the 20th century, writing or co-writing some of their greatest hits. Accused, along with the rest of The Weavers, of having Communist sympathies, he and the group were blacklisted during the McCarthy era and unable to perform on television, radio, or in most music halls. The group broke up in 1952 as a result, but resumed singing in 1955. They continued together until 1963 (with changes in personnel). The Weavers held several reunion concerts in 1980s, documented in the film, “The Weavers: Wasn’t That a Time!” Hellerman was also known for producing Arlo Guthrie’s hit record album “Alice’s Restaurant” (1967) and wrote, backed, or produced for many other well-known performers, Joan Baez and Harry Belafonte among them. Hellerman has been interviewed extensively but an overview of his career by Bruce Eder can be found on the “All Music” website. Ken Edgar, a Trustee of the Weston Historical Society, conducted two interviews with Fred in the Spring of 2016. The first focused largely on Hellerman’s childhood in Brooklyn, his musical and political influences, and the start of The Weavers. In the second interview Fred was joined by his wife Susan Lardner and together they talked about coming to live in Weston in 1968 to join the many other creative people from New York already here. -
