Ever since I was a little boy I have been a fan, and some might even say that I became somewhat obsessed, for which I cannot really blame them. Moreover, I have always had a special interest in mixed language songs, so linking the two subjects seemed only natural. Thanks to a rather unfortunate turn of events, this thesis took a lot longer to write than was initially planned, but nevertheless, here it is. Special thanks are in order for my supervisor, Tony Foster, who has helped me in many ways during this time. I would also like to thank a number of other people for various reasons. The second reader Lettie Dorst. My mother, for being the reason I got involved with the Eurovision Song Contest. My father, for putting up with my seemingly endless collection of Eurovision MP3s in the car.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACTS: Ashley Berke Alex Podmaska Director of Public Relations Public Relations Coordinator 215.409.6693 215.409.6895 [email protected] [email protected] THE IRISH TENORS AND MIRA AWAD BRING NOTES OF PEACE FROM REGIONS OF CONFLICT AT 2010 LIBERTY MEDAL CEREMONY Philadelphia, PA (September 9, 2010) – Renowned singing trio The Irish Tenors and Israeli-Palestinian singer Mira Awad will perform during the 2010 Liberty Medal ceremony at the National Constitution Center on Monday, September 13, 2010, honoring former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Both groups represent areas of the world where Tony Blair has demonstrated a commitment to promoting peace. The Liberty Medal ceremony will be broadcast live on WPVI-TV/6abc and webcast live on www.6abc.com . The Irish Tenors will sing “Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears" and “Let There Be Peace,” Mira Awad will perform her song “Faith in the Light,” and students from Girard Academic Music Program will join Awad in a performance of “You Raise Me Up” to close the ceremony. The John Byrne Band , led by Dublin native John Byrne, who currently resides in the Philadelphia area, will perform at the President’s Reception prior to the ceremony. President Bill Clinton, Chair of the National Constitution Center, will award the Liberty Medal to former Prime Minister Blair in recognition of his steadfast commitment to conflict resolution.

  • Artists on the Frontline
    (Click the URLS for links to articles/websites online) ARTISTS ON THE FRONTLINE This month, Israeli singer Noa (Achinoam Nini) found herself in the headlines when JNF Canada withdrew their support from an upcoming concert featuring her, falsely alleging that she was a BDS supporter. Noa is an outspoken peace activist & critic of the current Israeli government.

  • Music in Conflict: Palestine, Israel, and the Politics of Aesthetic Production
    Music in Conflict: Palestine, Israel, and the Politics of Aesthetic Production Nili Belkind Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree Of Doctor of Philosophy In the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Nili Belkind All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Music in Conflict: Palestine, Israel and the Politics of Aesthetic Production Nili Belkind This is an ethnographic study of the fraught and complex cultural politics of music making in Palestine-Israel in the context of the post-Oslo era. I examine the politics of sound and the ways in which music making and attached discourses reflect and constitute identities, and also, contextualize political action. Ethical and aesthetic positions that shape contemporary artistic production in Israel-Palestine are informed by profound imbalances of power between the State (Israel), the stateless (Palestinians of the occupied Palestinian territories), the complex positioning of Israel’s Palestinian minority, and contingent exposure to ongoing political violence. Cultural production in this period is also profoundly informed by highly polarized sentiments and retreat from the expressive modes of relationality that accompanied the 1990s peace process, strategic shifts in the Palestinian struggle for liberation, which is increasingly taking place on the world stage through diplomatic and cultural work, and the conceptual life and currency Palestine has gained as an entity deserving of statehood around the world. The ethnography attends to how the conflict is lived and expressed, musically and discursively, in both Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories (oPt) of the West Bank, encompassing different sites, institutions and individuals. I examine the ways in which music making and attached discourses reflect and constitute identities, with the understanding that musical culture is a sphere in which power and hegemony are asserted, negotiated and resisted through shifting relations between and within different groups.

Fifty-four years after Germany played host to the second ever Eurovision Song Contest, the musical jamboree comes to Düsseldorf this May. It’s a very different world since ARD staged the show in 1957 with just 10 nations in a small TV studio in Frankfurt. This year, a record 43 countries will take part in the three shows, with a potential audience of 35,000 live in the Esprit Arena. All 10 nations from 1957 will be on show in Germany, but only two of their languages survive. The creaky phone lines that provided the results from the 100 judges have been superseded by state of the art, pan-continental technology that involves all the 125 million viewers watching at home. It’s a very different show indeed. Back in 1957, Lys Assia attempted to defend her Eurovision crown and this year Germany’s Lena will become the third artist taking a crack at the same challenge.
