Shadowsnyt 20 - Side 1 Shadowsnyt Er Medlemsblad for Den Danske Shadows Klub SShhaaddoowwssNNyytt 2200 August 2005 Shadowstræf 2005 i Nyborg For 2. år i træk var det medborgerhuset i Nyborg der lagde lokaler til vores landstræf. Vi havde 3 bands på programmet i år, og der var over 70 fremmødte til træffet, det største antal i den tid jeg har været med. Det var også dejligt at se at der var en del der havde fulgt min opfordring og taget konen med. Det første band på scenen var Swingsters fra Esbjerg, med lead guitar Jens P. Hallum-Olesen, rytme guitar Keld Kring, keybord Finn Weber, trommer Erling Petersen og bas Jan Thykær. Man kan kun sige at de levede til fulde op til de- res navn for det swingede rigtigt godt. Jeg glemte desværre helt at få taget billeder af Swingsters optræden, og min efterlysning efter billeder hos andre deltagere har ikke givet noget resultat des- angående. (derfor må I nøjes med dette billede fra plakaten) Sound Of Shadows Poul Erik Christiansen(Sound Of Shadows) Det er ikke nemt at skulle optræde umiddelbart efter et så godt band som Swingsters, men Sound of Sha- dows , med lead guitar Poul Erik Christiansen, rytme guitar Bent Larsen, trommer Jan Åkesen og bas Kurt An- dersen, gjorde det fabelagtigt godt Derefter var der som sædvanlig en masse dygtige folk oppe og demonstrere deres evner til UB- Hank. I de tilstødende lokaler var ud- stilling af diverse gear og guita- rer, derudover var der salg af CD’er og DVD. ShadowsNyt 20 - Side 1 ShadowsNyt er medlemsblad for Den Danske Shadows Klub.

  • Hank Marvin Album HANK Set for Release 2Nd June 2014 Submitted By: Bennett Public Relations Thursday, 10 April 2014
    Hank Marvin album HANK set for release 2nd June 2014 Submitted by: Bennett Public Relations Thursday, 10 April 2014 Hank Marvin, the legendary guitarist and modern day icon, who has inspired generations and garnered critical acclaim throughout his career for his work with The Shadows and as a solo artist, releases a long-awaited new studio album on 2 June 2014. Simply titled HANK, the album will be released on the DMG TV label. Featuring 14 tracks, HANK includes fresh interpretations of some of Marvin’s favourite summer-themed music, along with one new composition. It’s the first new release since 2007’s UK Top 10 Guitar Man, for the man whose legendary achievements were restated yet again in The Times in February 2014, when he was listed as Number 2, amongst the world’s greatest guitar players and The Shadows amongst the greatest groups! It’s been 60 years since the man who introduced the Fender Stratocaster to the UK, picked up his first musical instrument. Marvin’s performances as a solo frontman and with The Shadows on their records and backing Cliff Richard have resulted in millions of worldwide record sales. The Shadows’ monumental chart debut with Apache in 1960 started an incredible run of 13 UK Top 10 hits for the group in just 4 years, during which time their unmistakeable style became a household sound around the world. Hank and The Shadows ruled the charts during the early 1960s and as a solo artist from the late 1970s to the present day Hank Marvin has sold in excess of 6 million albums.

  • In 193X, Constance Rourke's Book American Humor Was Reviewed In
    OUR LIVELY ARTS: AMERICAN CULTURE AS THEATRICAL CULTURE, 1922-1931 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jennifer Schlueter, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Thomas Postlewait, Adviser Professor Lesley Ferris Adviser Associate Professor Alan Woods Graduate Program in Theatre Copyright by Jennifer Schlueter c. 2007 ABSTRACT In the first decades of the twentieth century, critics like H.L. Mencken and Van Wyck Brooks vociferously expounded a deep and profound disenchantment with American art and culture. At a time when American popular entertainments were expanding exponentially, and at a time when European high modernism was in full flower, American culture appeared to these critics to be at best a quagmire of philistinism and at worst an oxymoron. Today there is still general agreement that American arts “came of age” or “arrived” in the 1920s, thanks in part to this flogging criticism, but also because of the powerful influence of European modernism. Yet, this assessment was not, at the time, unanimous, and its conclusions should not, I argue, be taken as foregone. In this dissertation, I present crucial case studies of Constance Rourke (1885-1941) and Gilbert Seldes (1893-1970), two astute but understudied cultural critics who saw the same popular culture denigrated by Brooks or Mencken as vibrant evidence of exactly the modern American culture they were seeking. In their writings of the 1920s and 1930s, Rourke and Seldes argued that our “lively arts” (Seldes’ formulation) of performance—vaudeville, minstrelsy, burlesque, jazz, radio, and film—contained both the roots of our own unique culture as well as the seeds of a burgeoning modernism.

You put it in the soil, and that bulb grows every second that it’s attached to the earth. That’s why I think that every minute we are attached to the earth, we should be doing something.” —Ruth Asawa Ruth Asawa: A Sculpting Life By Joan Schoettler • Illustrated by Traci Van Wagoner “Art will make people better, more highly skilled in thinking and improving whatever business one goes into. It makes a person broader.” —Ruth Asawa Ruth Asawa believed in making the world a better place. She understood that exposing children to art was one path toward that goal. From the Japanese American internment camps to the creation of the Ruth Asawa San Francisco School of the Arts, Asawa’s life journey is one filled with family, art, injustice, inner strength, education, and arts activism. She drew upon her transformative life experiences and worked with unconventional mediums—using lines, space, and wire—to create sculptures that move people to this day. Touched by the celebration of Asawa’s life, author Joan Schoettler viewed exhibitions, studied Asawa’s creations, and consulted many who knew Asawa in a quest to portray the life of this remarkable woman. In a perfect complement, the thorough research by illustrator Traci Van Wagoner is vividly apparent in the quietly compelling depictions of Asawa and her life.
