  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE PLACE: Jakarta DATE: 17 September 2016 Voice of Refugees Fundraising Concert– Joining Hands to Benefit Refugees Worldwide Jakarta, 17 September 2016 – Concerned business leaders and celebrities are joining hands with humanitarians and the general public tonight to help provide a better future for refugees everywhere through the Voices of Refugees concert. The event is being taped live at the Ciputra Artpreneur this evening and will be aired by Metro TV on 24 September, thanks to the charitable efforts of the Media Group. Ms. Noor Sabah, wife of the Norwegian Ambassador in Indonesia is involved as an organizer and patron of the concert. This marks the third year she has been helping to put together similar benefit concerts for humanitarian causes in Indonesia. In addition, this year’s Voice of Refugees concert has received the generous support of prominent Indonesian corporations such as Tahir Foundation, and the Media Group. Funds that are mobilized in connection with the concert will help UNHCR meet the urgent humanitarian and other needs of refugees, including shelter, health care, education and social services. Everyone who wants to help is encouraged to donate through UNHCR’s Indonesia Website at donate.unhcr.org. Donations can also be made at www.nobodyleftoutside.org, which would contribute towards UNHCR’s campaign to provide shelter for at least 2 million refugees by 2018. Donations are needed now more than ever as the world is witnessing a record number of people being forced from their homes due to war and persecution. By the end of 2015, over 65 million people were forcibly displaced around the world.

    Celeb Charity The Truth About Celebrity Benefit Concerts Dorothy Pomerantz, 01.26.10, 01:00 PM EST Sometimes celebrities are the best people to rally donors. In Pictures: The Biggest Celebrity Benefit Hauls LOS ANGELES -- Friday night's Hope for Haiti Now concert was a huge success, raising $57 million so far for organizations like Oxfam America, the Red Cross and UNICEF that are working to help victims of the Jan. 12 earthquake. Organized by actor George Clooney and musician Wyclef Jean, the event was a star- studded, bicoastal concert featuring performances from U2, Alicia Keys and Bruce Springsteen, among others. We've come to expect celebrities to rally with a big concert event in the wake of a tragedy. Benefit concerts have been in vogue since 1985's Live Aid, which raised $245 million for famine relief in Ethiopia. In Pictures: The Biggest Celebrity Benefit Hauls At the same time, it's natural to feel a bit cynical watching Madonna in a fancy leather jacket, with a face seemingly improved by thousands of dollars' worth of plastic surgery, singing and asking viewers to donate small sums to help people in Haiti who are hurt, homeless and starving. She's clearly rich (according to our last Celebrity 100 list, Madonna earned $110 million between June 2008 and June 2009). Why doesn't she just donate some of her own millions to those suffering in Haiti? According to Paul Schervish, director of the Center on Wealth and Philanthropy at Boston College, by appearing in the Hope for Haiti Now concert a star like Madonna can raise more money and create more happiness than she could have by just donating on her own.

  • Weaving Words and Music: Fostering a Meaningful Intercultural Exchange Through Music Composition1
    Athens Journal of Humanities & Arts - Volume 5, Issue 3 – Pages 259-284 Weaving Words and Music: Fostering a Meaningful Intercultural Exchange through Music Composition1 By Mary Ellen Haupert "Weaving Words and Music," is the product of a year-long study funded by Viterbo Universityʼs D.B. Reinhart Institute for Ethics in Leadership. The study included faculty research and a course-embedded music composition, which broadened studentsʼ understanding of global conflict by incorporating personal experiences of Palestinians living in Bethlehem. Music theory students read human stories of Palestinians caught in conflict from the Arab Educational Instituteʼs publication, "The Wall Museum,". The studentsʼ compositions were part of a Humanities Symposium that significantly impacted and deepened student learning. The benefits and outcomes of this meaningful endeavor are the focus of this paper. 1 Introduction: Values-Based Creative Composition at Viterbo University2 "Flying in the face of the behaviorist, who tied motivation directly to the receipt of tangible rewards, researchers now believe that learners are best served when their motivation is intrinsic: when they pursue learning because it is fun or rewarding in itself, rather than because someone has promised them some material benefit."3 Howard Gardner, The Disciplined Mind For the past several years, I have explored music composition as a powerful tool for unlocking creative potential. The work began as a way to engage and motivate sophomore music theory students, but mushroomed into papers and original compositions that have been presented and performed at choir concerts, recitals, and conferences. Embedding composition into the theory curriculum had immediate benefits because it required application of the basic elements of music (rhythm, melody, harmony, texture/timbre, and form) in a creative and personal manner.

  • Protest As Event
    PROTEST AS EVENT OVERVIEW ESSENTIAL QUESTION Since the 1960s, how have artists used musical events to promote change? OVERVIEW “Artists write, and sing, and think, and this is how we get to put our two cents in, and we do it right in front of people, not in secret meetings behind closed doors. We let people know what we think … I don’t know if people go to musicians for their politics. I doubt that they do, you know, but you can rally people to think on serious issues together, and that’s what we’re trying to do.” - Bruce Springsteen, August 4, 2004, Nightline, ABC Network In August 1971, former member of the Beatles George Harrison gathered a group of musical colleagues that included Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, and many others to perform two benefit concerts at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The so-called Concert for Bangladesh was intended to raise money for and awareness of the refugees fleeing a bloody civil war in Pakistan, a situation made even worse by a devastating cyclone earlier that year. The concert, which was also recorded as a film and a live album, became a model for how Rock and Roll stars could marshal their celebrity in support of a particular cause. The efforts of Harrison and his friends ultimately raised millions of dollars for UNICEF and established a new precedent for how Rock and Roll could engage the public in order to promote meaningful change in the world. The mass gatherings of the 1960s – including the March on Washington, antiwar demonstrations on college campuses, and the Woodstock festival – had clearly demonstrated the power of events to command media attention and to make voices heard.
