  • Sermon – Matthew 27:55-61 – “Can I Get a Witness?”
    Sermon – Matthew 27:55-61 – “Can I Get a Witness?” The text this morning is a small part of a much longer text that is the reading of the day in the lectionary I use, which is based on the principle of lectio continua. It could be a familiar one, because it is part of the passion narrative from the gospel of Matthew, one of the church’s accounts of the betrayal, arrest, trial, crucifixion, and death of Jesus, which covers the events of Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, and because that text comes up in the revised common lectionary every three years as one of the readings for Palm Sunday, and because the RCL is used by many pastors and churches – so it could be very familiar, but on the other hand, because the full narrative is 128 verses long, and because it takes about 12 and a half minutes to read, and because of the constraints of the typical Sunday worship service, especially on Palm Sunday, wouldn’t normally allow for a reading that long, and because the RCL’s suggestion for a shorter passion narrative leaves this part of the story out, it could easily happen that this part of the text would never be read in a church, so it could be a decidedly unfamiliar text. Whether or not it is familiar, it is a detail of that larger story, and I hope we can approach it in that spirit this morning, the way we might consider a detail from a larger work of art with some special interest, or the way we might return again and again to a particular facet of a memory that has been important to us.

  • “Can I Get a Witness": Musicians Performing Politics in the U.S. Congress Published on Ethnomusicology Review (
    “Can I Get a Witness": Musicians Performing Politics in the U.S. Congress Published on Ethnomusicology Review (https://ethnomusicologyreview.ucla.edu) “Can I Get a Witness": Musicians Performing Politics in the U.S. Congress By Alexandra Apolloni, Matthew D. Atkinson, and Darin DeWitt Abstract: In this paper, we use both interpretive methods from ethnomusicology, musicology and performance studies, and empirical methods from the social sciences, to examine the performative nature and political influence of testimonies by high-profile or celebrity musicians at hearings in the United States Congress. We argue that in testifying, musicians can both influence politics and engage in a very public performance of self, one that contributes to audience acceptance of the credibility and authenticity of their musical performances. The purported truthfulness of their testimony also raises ethical dimensions. We ask: if testifying entails giving voice to truth, whose truths do these testimonies give voice to, and whose do they silence? To explore this question, we first ask how musicians’ testimonies create meaning as performances of self that might shape how people hear music. Then, we ask how these performances both give voice and create silences—first, by considering how they position music vis-à-vis attitudes about the political process and U.S. exceptionalism; and second, by asking how musician testimonies relate to power dynamics within the U.S. popular music industry. We then offer a theoretical model that outlines the likely consequences of musician participation in the political process, and finally, we evaluate empirical implications of our model, which suggest that musician participation makes a measurable impact on public perception of a musician’s persona or star text.

    HORN OF PLENTY: fragment* André Spears The premise: After the ultimate move in a game of Tarot the narrator has fallen into a deep trance, from which he is trying to awake. He describes his experience in imagined letters to his Love. When the Phosphorescent water stopped cascading, and the circular Rainbow disappeared, the gate behind which the water had been falling unlocked itself and opened. Simultaneously, I find myself removing a Red “Horn of Plenty” from my mouth... A rope with a large Gordian knot in it, the first in a series of similar knots, hangs from a Metal ring on the ceiling, and leads down a dark shaft. My back is against a wall; I grab onto the rope above the highest knot, put my feet on the knot below and start climbing toward the bottom, where I think I see light. I count the knots on the way, but somewhere past two thousand I lose track; the light is real and getting closer. At the end of the shaft I let go, and jump onto a vast and luminous stretch of sand. * “The end is in the beginning and yet you go on.” — Samuel Beckett, Endgame I have entered the site described in Everyman’s Handbook of Splendors: the Tunnel of Set, under the City of the Pyramids. Before me, in the canal, under an arched ceiling of polished Alabaster, lies a White Paper Boat, pristine and immense. It sits in the water between an Illuminated Earthen Bumper, where the canal begins— like the Bumpers of Neo Lione’zz before the Flood— and a Pearl Gate that blocks access to the rest of the waterway— like the Gates of Heaven in Doktor Vibes’ Keys to Success.
