BMJ0030 ISMN 9790 720077826 Little Wooden Thingy Lachlan Davidson. Duration: 2’40” Level: 2 Program Notes: My late father-in-law, Alan, carved a small wooden item on his lathe and gave it to his daughter, my wife. I noticed it on the mantelpiece as I was naming this piece. A small dedication for a little piece of music, designed to make us smile when we play it or listen to it. Performance Notes: Although this arrangement will work with the minimum instrumentation, to get the most of the voicings the optional parts should be covered as best as possible. Rhythm section: Go for a light and bouncy swing feel which does not overshadow the piano/vibes melody at [A] and never gets too loud. The saxes should continue in a similar vibe with the melody at [B]. The half time feel at [C] needs to keep forward momentum despite a natural pull-back. The back beat can be reasonably solid from the drums and piano. The bass may take some license here too with the right player. There aren’t many dynamics and they are subtle, but still important giving the bridge a lift each time. The solos can be played as written, sounding as loose as possible or improvised. Keep the backing figures under the Tenor 2 solo at [F]but also, the Tenor player needs to play strongly enough to be heard. After the solo section we return to the bridge, perhaps with a little more vigour than before, coming back down for the last A section and a biggish finish. About the Composer: Taking up the alto saxophone aged twelve, Lachlan went on to graduate with distinction from The Victorian College of the Arts in 1983. Performing solos five times with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra,SAMPLE he performs with The Australian SCORE Art Orchestra and the Daryl McKenzie Jazz Orchestra, and in many television (Dancing with the stars/Australia-all 15 seasons) and concert performances (Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, John Farnham, George Benson), also on many CD’s and films. He was chief arranger for “Dancing with the Stars” and orchestrates for Big-bands and Orchestras etc. (MSO, SSO, film, T.V. and many schools). He currently works at Caulfield Grammar School in the jazz department and as resident composer/arranger, teaching saxophone and composition at Monash University and directing the Monash University Saxophone Big Band (Saxband). His published compositions include music for big-band, solo saxophone and other woodwinds, saxophone quartet and songs. He has been commissioned to compose for orchestra and various mixed ensembles plus several musicals. Lachlan loves creating and performing music. Lachlan is also a Mini Quest Catamaran Champion and can juggle four balls at once. N.B.

This is an interview with Marc Grossman done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I’m Charles Stuart Kennedy. You go by Marc? GROSSMAN: I do. Q: What happens, why are some Marcs spelled with a C and some with a K? Do you have any idea? GROSSMAN: My dad always said it was his contribution to culture. Q: Okay. Well, we’ll start talking about him but first, when and where were you born? GROSSMAN: I was born in September of 1951 in Los Angeles, California. Q: Where in Los Angeles? GROSSMAN: In East Los Angeles. My parents lived in Pico Rivera, or then, just Pico. Q: Okay. Let’s talk about your, sort of your background. On your family’s side, let’s talk about the father’s family, the Grossmans. Do you have any idea where they came from? GROSSMAN: We have a vague idea. Both of my father’s parents, my grandmother and grandfather, were immigrants to the United States. They came separately from Chernowitz, which is now Ukraine but my father believes at the time of their immigration it was Romania. I think they came to the United States in the 1920s. They moved to New York, met in the US and settled in the Bronx. They then moved, first to Arizona and then to California in the 1940s, where my grandfather used to sew.

  • “House and Techno Broke Them Barriers Down”: Exploring Exclusion Through Diversity in Berlin's Electronic Dance Music Nigh
    Gender Studies Department of Thematic Studies Linköping University “House and Techno Broke Them Barriers Down”: Exploring Exclusion through Diversity in Berlin’s Electronic Dance Music Nightclubs Naomi Alice Rodgers Supervisor name: Silje Lundgren Gender Studies, LiU Master’s Programme Gender Studies – Intersectionality and Change Master’s thesis 30 ECTS credits ISRN: LIU-TEMA G/GSIC2-A—15/003—SE 1 ABSTRACT Berlin is heralded worldwide as being a city that is open, innovative and diverse: a true multicultural metropolis. Music plays a central role in the city’s claim to this title. Go to any one of Berlin’s many notorious alternative nightclubs and you will hear techno, house and electronic dance music blasting out to hoards of enthusiastic partygoers. Many of these clubs and their participants claim that these parties represent diversity, acceptance, equality and tolerance: Spaces within which social divisions are suspended, difference is overcome and people are united. This ubiquitous discursive assertion is referred to in this thesis as a “diversity discourse”. This “diversity discourse” will be deconstructed and situated within a wider political context, with a specific focus on perceptions of race, ethnicity, sexuality and gender. Engaging with theories of intersectionality, post-colonial theory (looking specifically at Jasbir Puar’s important work on homonationalism) and employing qualitative methods such as in-depth interviews and autoethnographic inquiry, it will be argued that the “diversity discourse” works as a mask to conceal a reality of social segregation. Far from being sites of equality and diversity, it will be suggested that access to these nightclubs is premised on the possession of societal privilege.
