However, modern vocalists in the United States often overlook or misrepresent Indigenous features in performances of New Spanish repertoire. Vocalists typically must make choices about vocal techniques alone and, largely for lack of resources, in uninformed ways.

  • Manuel De Sumaya
    Craig H. Russell MANUEL DE SUMAVA: Reexamining the a Cappella Choral Music of a Mexican Master In 1710 the deteriorating eyesight of chapelmaster Antonio de Salazar necessitated that he find an assistant to help with his musical obligations and teaching duties at the Mexico City Cathedral and the Public School (Escoleta Publica). Overriding a seniority system that would have placed Francisco de Atienza y Pineda as his right-hand man, Salazar chose as his assistant his own aspiring pupil, Manuel de Sumaya. 1 Instead of 1 I would like to express my deepest thanks to Robert Snow for having sent me facsimiles of the pieces discussed in this article years ago when I first developed an interest in Su­ maya and his music. I am indebted to his profound generosity and tireless encourage­ ment.

  • Peace in Palestine Via the World Heritage Convention
    . Michael K. Madison II. Peace in Palestine ..........through World Heritage Promoting Peace via Global Conventions - 1 - Peace in Palestine via the World Heritage Convention Promoting Peace via Global Conventions The Global Problem "Throughout history, religious differences have divided men and women from their neighbors and have served as justification for some of humankind's bloodiest conflicts. In the modern world, it has become clear that people of all religions must bridge these differences and work together, to ensure our survival and realize the vision of peace that all faiths share." -- H.R.H. Prince El-Hassan bin Talal, Jordan Moderator, WCRP Governing Board Tolerance, Economic Growth and Fear Global peace and harmony is not possible without religious tolerance. Unfortunately, there is no instant microwavable solution. We can’t just add water and/or milk to the current situation and hope that the world will ameliorate itself overnight. No. The world needs help. The problem is not the outliers; it is larger groups of people that need to change. Outliers will always be present. The world needs religious-minded policymakers to take giant steps that lead to peace, but in a mutually beneficial way. Indeed, peace for peace’s sake is not always enough incentive to all parties involved. Therefore, if the conflict cannot be resolved by tolerance, then let it be resolved by greed as we find a way to help the countries involved to achieve a better economic position. If the conflict cannot be resolved by boosting the corresponding economies, then let it be resolved by fear as we convince the nations involved that one false move means it will be - 2 - their country against the rest of the world and not just their “enemy of the day”.
