  • Historic Third Ward
    Approximate boundaries: N-E. Clybourn St; S-E. Erie St; E-Lake Michigan; W-Milwaukee River DOWNTOWNHistoric Third Ward NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION A high proportion of blocks in the Third Ward border a waterway. On the east is Lake Michigan. The Milwaukee River also runs through the Ward and connects to the Menomonee River at the western section of the neighborhood. The area has a lovely Riverwalk. Most of the buildings are massive brick structures. Many of these had been warehouses in other incarnations and now house condos and shops. The mainly neoclassical buildings have ornamentation from the Victorian Gothic through the Art Deco eras. While the streets of the Historic Third Ward have few trees, the blocks are seasonally adorned with filled planters and flower baskets. Artwork and cultural centers are always within glancing distance. See photos below. HISTORY The Historic Third Ward has experienced many rebirths. What is known today as an upscale, trendy neighborhood by most Milwaukeeans, was something much different in the past. Early populations The major Indian nations that were settled in and around the Third Ward area when the Europeans arrived were the Menomonie and the Ho-Chunk. Near the Ward, on Jones Island and in the Menomonee Valley, were the Potawatomi. The fur traders followed the Indian settlements, and most of these were French, French Canadian, and Metis populations. One individual involved in the fur trade was Solomon Juneau, who would become Milwaukee’s first mayor. His wife was part Menomonie. He was also a large investor in real estate and was responsible for surveying much of the land in the Ward.

  • The Process of Creating the First Pan-European Shakuhachi Summer
    The process of creating the first Pan-European Shakuhachi Summer School with Koto and Shamisen SOAS, University of London 19th-22nd July 2006 From an organiser’s viewpoint. By Kiku Day Photo: Christiane Werner The Shakuhachi Summer School with Koto and Shamisen was part of the SOAS World Music Summer Schools series. SOAS was a perfect environment for this first attempt at a large shakuhachi event, and I feel strongly that many forces came together and made this year a perfect time for this important first shakuhachi event to happen at SOAS. I contacted the music department at SOAS regarding hosting a shakuhachi summer school for the first time in September 2002 after having participated in the World Shakuhachi Festival in Tokyo and Klezfest (one week of klezmer music classes and events). However, SOAS still didn’t have a Music Summer School yet. I graduated from SOAS with a BA in ethnomusicology in 2003 and left England to do a Master degree in performance in California, USA. When I returned and registered in September 2005 the following came together like a natural force: • SOAS has one of the leading departments in ethnomusicology in Europe and is in possession of six koto and five shamisen. • SOAS had had two successful Music Summer Schools and was therefore in a much better position than earlier to host such an event. • Michael Coxall, a Yamaguchi Goro student and excellent shakuhachi performer, who teaches at SOAS was very enthusiastic and willing to co-organise this crazy project. • An active Japanese Music Society was created and led by Arisawa Shino in Sept.

    VIOLENT FEMMES AND THE TASMANIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA World Premiere Monday 22 & Tuesday 23 January Due to popular demand Mona Foma today announced an extra show for the world premiere of the Violent Femmes performing with the TSO. For two nights only, the Violent Femmes will take their acoustic punk-rock and work with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to reimagine it as a full orchestra experience. Conducted by Hamish McKeich they’ll perform a long list of cult classics such as Add It Up, Blister In The Sun, Kiss Off, Gone Daddy Gone, American Song and Gimme The Car at The Federation Concert Hall on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 January. “Most rock bands would blow off an orchestra with the amplifiers, but for these two shows we’re prepared to back off on the volume and actually play almost at the same volume as the orchestra musicians and create a more unified approach, “ said Brian Ritchie. The Violent Femmes were formed in 1981 as an acoustic band playing on the streets of Milwaukee. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Enduring a couple of hiatuses throughout their 36-plus year career, the band — original members Gordon Gano and Brian Ritchie, along with drummer John Sparrow have been performing steadily since reuniting again in 2013. The TSO’s performance with the Violent Femmes represents another innovative collaboration for the orchestra, which in 2017 alone has seen sold out concerts with vocal star Kate Miller-Heidke, a Dark MOFO collaboration with Norwegian metal band Ulver, an original show with comedy trio Tripod and a sold out concert with ARIA award-winning and multi-platinum artist Megan Washington.

  • Submission by Music Tasmania
    Parliamentary Inquiry into the Australian music industry : Submission by Music Tasmania Parliamentary Inquiry into the Australian music industry: Submission by Music Tasmania Introduction On behalf of Music Tasmania, thank you for the opportunity to provide input into the Parliamentary Inquiry regarding: Factors contributing to the growth and sustainability of the Australian music industry. Music is the soundtrack to the creative economy in Tasmania. Acts like ASTA, Striborg, Psycroptic, Monique Brumby, The Innocents, The Paradise Motel, The Wolfe Brothers, and Luca Brasi, are all part of a legacy of Tasmanian musicians who have a powerful impact on our national and international reputation. Local music festivals such as MONA FOMA, Dark MOFO, Party in the Paddock, and a festival called Panama, are gaining worldwide attention and putting Tasmania on the music map. Apart from their talent, the people working in the Tasmanian music sector are highly committed and resourceful in an environment where funding is scarce, paid opportunities limited, and the music marketplace is increasingly competitive and globalised. Some of the challenges faced by musicians are endemic to the nature of this evolving artform; others however, are more determined by the local music ecosystem in Tasmania. In August 2016, Music Tasmania, in partnership with APRA AMCOS and the Live Music Office, facilitated a statewide consultation to understand the challenges and opportunities facing the Tasmanian sector. The consultation involved face-to-face sessions with key stakeholders,

    Archives and Special Collections Mansfield Library, University of Montana Missoula MT 59812-9936 Email: [email protected] Telephone: (406) 243-2053 This transcript represents the nearly verbatim record of an unrehearsed interview. Please bear in mind that you are reading the spoken word rather than the written word. Oral History Number: 473-007 Interviewee: (John) Chris Badgley Interviewer: Leif Fredrickson Date of Interview: November 21, 2019 Project: Missoula Music History Oral History Project Leif Fredrickson: This is Leif Fredrickson interviewing Chris Badgley. Did I pronounce your name right? Chris Badgley: Perfect. LF: November 22, 2019, or 21st—one of those two. CB: I think it's the 2ast. LF: Yeah, the 21st century, somewhere in there, and we're in Missoula, Montana. So, let's just start. Can you tell me where you were born and raised? CB: Certainly, I was born in Ohio; however, I don't feel I’ve ever been there because we left after six months. My father was at Johns Hopkins after that where we were until my mother had stroke and we moved back to Missoula when I was six, I believe. They were both born and raised here and so moved back here because they knew where they stood, and Mom needed a lot of help. I moved back to Missoula then and was raised here up until I was 18. Went through the Missoula county public school system, Hellgat High, and graduated half a year early and got out of town in search of music, a scene, excitement—all those things one leaves home for.

  • Violent Femmes Hotel Last Resort Bio FINAL 2
    VIOLENT FEMMES HOTEL LAST RESORT bio Gordon Gano: lead vocal, guitar Brian Ritchie: acoustic bass guitar, baritone guitar, vocal, percussion John Sparrow: BBQ, snare, tom, percussion, vocal Blaise Garza: baritone, contrabass and sopranino saxophones, vocal, piano, harmonium, theremin, percussion Violent Femmes 10th studio album, HOTEL LAST RESORT, resides among the groundbreaking band’s finest work, simultaneously refining and redefining their one-of-a-kind take on American music, mingling front porch folk, post punk, spiritual jazz, country blues, avant garde minimalism and golden age rock ‘n’ roll into something still altogether their own. Founded and fronted of course by singer/ guitarist Gordon Gano and acoustic bass guitarist Brian Ritchie, the Milwaukee-born combo remains as warm, wise and weird as ever before, with such new favorites as “Another Chorus” and “Everlasting You” continuing to mine the vast range of ideas, melodic complexity and organic sonic craftsmanship that has characterized the band’s body of work since their landmark self-titled 1983 debut. “I think it’s probably the best [album] we’ve made since HALLOWED GROUND,” Ritchie says. “We didn’t really know that we had something to say, but it turns out that the songs are really good and we were able to sink our teeth into them and come up with something which is just as good as anything we’ve ever done. I’m even a little bit surprised myself.” Violent Femmes are undeniably one of the most inventive and original bands of this or any other era, constantly pushing forward with their singular blend of folk and punk, sarcasm and spirituality.
