Stephen McKinney-Whitaker INTROIT The Downeaster (Alexa) Andrew Vinton, Soloist Well I'm on the Downeaster Alexa They say these waters aren't what they used to be And I'm cruisin' through Block Island Sound But I've got people back on land who count on me I have charted a course to the vineyard So if you see my Downeaster Alexa But tonight I am Nantucket bound And if you work with the rod and the reel Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis We took on diesel back in Mantauk yesterday And I still have my hands on the wheel And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner's Bay Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa Like all the locals here I've had to sell my home More and more miles from shore every year Too proud to leave I work my fingers to the bone Since they told me I can't sell no stripers And there's no luck in swordfishing here So I could own my Downeaster Alexa And I go where the ocean is deep I was a Bayman like my father was before There are giants out there in the canyons Can't make a living as a Bayman anymore And a good captain can't fall asleep There ain't much future for a man who works the sea I got bills to pay and children who need clothes But there ain't no island left for Islanders like me I know there's fish out there but where, God only knows CALL TO WORSHIP (based on Isaiah 11:1-10) We come to worship the coming King. The One who was and is and is to come! Robed in Justice, carrying equity in his heart, Righteousness is a belt around his waist, faithfulness in the clasps of his sandals. We have prepared ourselves for worship. We intend to do no harm; to love our neighbors and to stay in love with God! We look forward to the Reign of the coming King! The wolves will walk with the lambs; the leopards skip with the kids; and the calves will be friends with the lion cubs. Peace will come through the root of Jesse, and we will abide with the King! *GATHERING SONG We Didn't Start the Fire Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray Little Rock, Pasternak, Mickey Mantle, Kerouac South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio Sputnik, Chou En-Lai, "Bridge on the River Kwai" Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon, Studebaker, Lebanon, Charles de Gaulle, California baseball television, North Korea, South Korea, Marilyn Starkweather homicide, children of thalidomide Monroe, Rosenbergs, H-bomb, Sugar Ray, Buddy Holly, Ben Hur, space monkey, mafia Panmunjom, Brando, "The King and I", and Hula hoops, Castro, Edsel is a no-go "The Catcher in the Rye" U2, Syngman Rhee, Payola and Kennedy Chubby Checker, Psycho, Belgians in the Congo Eisenhower, Vaccine, England's got a new queen REFRAIN Marciano, Liberace, Santayana, goodbye Hemingway, Eichmann, "Stranger in a Strange Land" REFRAIN Dylan, Berlin, Bay of Pigs invasion We didn't start the fire "Lawrence of Arabia", British Beatlemania It was always burning, since the world's been Ole Miss, John Glenn, Liston beats Patterson turning Pope Paul, Malcolm X, British politician sex We didn't start the fire JFK – blown away, what else do I have to say?

ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS Friends, remember your baptism and believe the good news of the Gospel In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven. ANTHEM River of Dreams Julie Milller, Soloist In the middle of the night I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life I go walking in my sleep Until I find what it is that I've been looking for From the mountains of faith In the middle of the night To the river so deep I go walking in my sleep I must be looking for something Through the jungle of doubt Something sacred I lost To a river so deep But the river is wide I know I'm searching for something And it's too hard to cross Something so undefined That it can only be seen Even though I know the river is wide By the eyes of the blind I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore In the middle of the night I try to cross to the opposite side I'm not sure about a life after this So I can finally find out what I've been looking for God knows I've never been a spiritual man Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river In the middle of the night That runs to the promised land I go walking in my sleep Through the valley of fear In the middle of the night To a river so deep I go walking in my sleep I've been searching for something Through the desert of truth Taken out of my soul To the river so deep Something I'd never lose We all end in the ocean Something somebody stole We all start in the streams We're all carried along I don't know why I go walking at night By the river of dreams But now I'm tired and I don't want to In the middle of the night walk anymore SCRIPTURE READINGS Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, Micah 4:1-4 and Acts 2:42-47 ANTHEM Leningrad Craig Barth, Soloist Viktor was born in the spring of ’44 Viktor was sent to some Red Army town And never saw his father anymore Served out his time, became a circus clown A child of sacrifice, a child of war The greatest happiness he’d ever found Another son who never had a father after Was making Russian children glad Leningrad And children lived in Leningrad Went off to school and learned to serve the state But children lived in Levittown Followed the rules and drank his vodka straight And hid in the shelters underground The only way to live was drown the hate Until the Soviets turned their ships around A Russian life was very sad And tore the Cuban missiles down And such was life in Leningrad And in that bright October sun We knew our childhood days were done I was born in ’49 A cold war kid in McCarthy time And I watched my friends go off to war Stop ’em all at the 38th Parallel What do they keep on fighting for? Blast those cowards straight to hell And so my child and I came to this place And cold war kids were hard to kill To meet him eye to eye and face to face Under their desks in an air raid drill He made my daughter laugh, then we embraced Haven’t they heard we won the war We never knew what friends we had What do they keep on fighting for? Until we came to Leningrad MEDITATION "For the Longest Time" Pastor Stephen SONG OF RESPONSE Allentown Well we’re living here in Allentown But they never really helped us at all And they’re closing all the factories down No they never taught us what was real Out in Bethlehem they’re killing time Iron and coke, and chromium steel Filling out forms And we’re waiting here in Allentown Standing in line Well our fathers fought the Second World War But they’ve taken all the coal from the ground Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore And the union people crawled away Met our mothers in the USO Asked them to dance Every child had a pretty good shot Danced with them slow To get at least as far as their old man got And we’re living here in Allentown But something happened on the way to that place They threw an American flag in our face But the restlessness was handed down And it’s getting very hard to stay Well I’m living here in Allentown And it’s hard to keep a good man down Well we’re waiting here in Allentown But I won’t be getting up today For the Pennsylvania we never found For the promises our teachers gave And it’s getting very hard to stay If we worked hard, If we behaved And we’re living here in Allentown So the graduations hang on the wall PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE AND THE LORD'S PRAYER (Unison) Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

  • Mtv and Transatlantic Cold War Music Videos
    102 MTV AND TRANSATLANTIC COLD WAR MUSIC VIDEOS WILLIAM M. KNOBLAUCH INTRODUCTION In 1986 Music Television (MTV) premiered “Peace Sells”, the latest video from American metal band Megadeth. In many ways, “Peace Sells” was a standard pro- motional video, full of lip-synching and head-banging. Yet the “Peace Sells” video had political overtones. It featured footage of protestors and police in riot gear; at one point, the camera draws back to reveal a teenager watching “Peace Sells” on MTV. His father enters the room, grabs the remote and exclaims “What is this garbage you’re watching? I want to watch the news.” He changes the channel to footage of U.S. President Ronald Reagan at the 1986 nuclear arms control summit in Reykjavik, Iceland. The son, perturbed, turns to his father, replies “this is the news,” and lips the channel back. Megadeth’s song accelerates, and the video re- turns to riot footage. The song ends by repeatedly asking, “Peace sells, but who’s buying?” It was a prescient question during a 1980s in which Cold War militarism and the nuclear arms race escalated to dangerous new highs.1 In the 1980s, MTV elevated music videos to a new cultural prominence. Of course, most music videos were not political.2 Yet, as “Peace Sells” suggests, dur- ing the 1980s—the decade of Reagan’s “Star Wars” program, the Soviet war in Afghanistan, and a robust nuclear arms race—music videos had the potential to relect political concerns. MTV’s founders, however, were so culturally conserva- tive that many were initially wary of playing African American artists; addition- ally, record labels were hesitant to put their top artists onto this new, risky chan- 1 American President Ronald Reagan had increased peace-time deicit defense spending substantially.

  • Covering Joel with Perfect Pitch
    Covering Joel with perfect pitch SUSAN DEEFHOLTS (Mar 23, 2007) One of the remarkable things about Billy Joel's music is that his writing has evolved with the times, while still retaining a sound that makes it distinctly his own. His work is uniquely contemporary, capturing a wide diversity of moods, from wry humour and sophisticated contemplation, through psychological angst and frenetic stress. An Innocent Man: The Music of Billy Joel marks the most recent in the Electric Thursdays series of concerts, a collaboration between the KWS and the Jeans 'n Classics band. Who better to lead us on this tribute to Joel's musical career than Jim Witter, himself an accomplished singer, pianist and songwriter? Witter is the creator of the hit show The Piano Men, a tribute to the 1970's hits of both Billy Joel and Elton John. His vibrant performance on Wednesday night potently demonstrated his strong affinity for Joel's work. At times, he sounded uncannily like the Piano Man himself, evoking both his timbre and enunciation. And yet, Witter also brought a presence that was uniquely his own to the performance. The evening began with such favourites as Only the Good Die Young and Uptown Girl --both songs about love between the kind of boy your mother warned you about and the girl who's got it all. The upbeat opening set the mood for a stellar performance of Joel classics. From the very first notes played, the audience sat up and took notice. Peter Brennan's orchestral arrangements, with Daniel Warren conducting, complemented the original songs, adding depth and resonance to the diverse range of songs covered throughout the evening.

  • Mars Oraa by Ken South
    Mars Oraa By Ken South In 1952 Harry Truman was President, the Today Show had its premiere on NBC, and many Americans heard the term transsexual for the first time with Christine Jorgensen’s sex reassignment surgery story. Mr. Potato Head was first revealed to the public, the first issue of Mad Magazine hit the stands and “Singin’ In The Rain” debuted at Radio City Music Hall. Johnnie Ray sang “Cry”, the Mills Brothers’ hit was “Glow Worm”, and Marlon Brando made the cry “Stella” famous in the movie, “Street Car Named Desire”. Also Elpidio Quirino was President of the Philippines when, in Manila, on the 6th of March, Mr. February joined his already large family of parents, four brothers and four sisters. Following his elementary school education, he graduated from vocational school in 1972 and received a degree as a hair dresser. He also excelled at a dance academy and during the 80s performed as a professional back-up dancer for several entertainers, including performing on television. The talented Mr. February also used his skills as a cook in several venues, including the United States Naval base at Subic Bay. And for two years, his cooking skills took him to work in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia! In 1992 Mr. F. joined some of his family in San Francisco, and became an American citizen in 1994. Over the next few years Mr. F. engaged both his cooking and hairdressing skills to work in several locations. He moved to Hartford, CT, and lived with one of his sisters for a few years, and while there made several trips to Boston to enjoy its fascinating gay scene.

  • Sasha Mäkilä Conducting Madetoja Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting
    Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre Sasha Mäkilä Conducting Madetoja Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music) Supervisor: Prof. Mart Humal Tallinn 2018 ABSTRACT Conducting Madetoja. Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting For the material of my doctoral project, I have chosen the three symphonies of the Finnish composer Leevi Madetoja (1887–1947), all of which I have performed in my doctoral concerts during years 2012–2017. In my doctoral thesis, I concentrate on his first symphony, Op. 29, but to fully understand the context it would be beneficial to familiarize oneself with my doctoral concerts on the accompanying DVDs, as well as with the available commercial and archival recordings of Madetoja’s three symphonies. The aim of this thesis is to understand the effect of scholarly activity (in this case working with manuscripts and recordings) on the artistic and practical aspects of a conductor’s work; this is not a study on the music of Madetoja per se, but I am using these hitherto unknown symphonies as a case study for my research inquiries. My main research inquiry could be formulated as: What kind of added value the study of composer’s manuscripts and other contemporary sources, the analysis of the existing recordings of the work by other performers, and the experience gained during repeated performances of the work, bring to performing (conducting) the work, as opposed to working straightforwardly using only the readily available published edition(s)? My methods are the analysis of musical scores, manuscripts and recordings, critical reflection on my own artistic practices, and two semi-structured interviews with conductor colleagues.
