Whose broad stripes and bright stars Thro’ the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watch’d Were so gallantly streaming; And the rockets’ red glare, The bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro’ the night That our flag was still there. Oh! say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave, O’er the land of the free, And the home of the brave! Oh, thus be it ever When free men shall stand Between their lov’d homes And the war’s desolation! Blest with vict’ry and peace, May the heav’n-rescued land Praise the pow’r that hath made And preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, When our cause it is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust!” And the Star-Spangled Banner In triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free And the home of the brave! 5 THE UNITED NATIONS HAROLD ROME Music by DMITRI SH O STAK O VIC H The sun and the stars are still ringing With song rising strong from the earth, The hope of humanity singing A hymn to a new world in birth. United Nations on the march With flags unfurled Together fight for victory A free new world. Take heart all you nations swept under, By powers of darkness that ride, The wrath of the people shall thunder, Relentless as time and the tide. Chorus As sure as the sun meets the morning The rivers go down to the sea, A new day for mankind is dawning, Our children shall live proud and free.

From the sidewalks of the city To the cottage on a hill, From the tug-boat on the river To the furnace and the mill, From the red-wood to the pine, This home, sweet home is yours and mine, Ev’rywhere, let Freedom shine, My Native Land. There’s a worker at his work-bench And a farmer at his plough, Here’s a miner and welder, And they’re all together now, For the Freedom we have^ known Wherever Stars and Stripes are flown, Let us sing this is my own, My Native Land.

  • A Concert Review by Christof Graf
    Leonard Cohen`s Tower Of Song: A Grand Gala Of Excellence Without Compromise by Christof Graf A Memorial Tribute To Leonard Cohen Bell Centre, Montreal/ Canada, 6th November 2017 A concert review by Christof Graf Photos by: Christof Graf “The Leonard Cohen Memorial Tribute ‘began in a grand fashion,” wrote the MONTREAL GAZETTE. “One Year After His Death, the Legendary Singer-Songwriter is Remembered, Spectacularly, in Montral,” headlined the US-Edition of NEWSWEEK. The media spoke of a “Star-studded Montreal memorial concert which celebrated life and work of Leonard Cohen.” –“Cohen fans sing, shout Halleluja in tribute to poet, songwriter Leonard,” was the title chosen by THE STAR. The NATIONAL POST said: “Sting and other stars shine in fast-paced, touching Leonard Cohen tribute in Montreal.” Everyone present shared this opinion. It was a moving and fascinating event of the highest quality. The first visitors had already begun their pilgrimage to the Hockey Arena of the Bell Centre at noon. The organizers reported around 20.000 visitors in the evening. Some media outlets estimated 16.000, others 22.000. Many visitors came dressed in dark suits and fedora hats, an homage to Cohen’s “work attire.” Cohen last sported his signature wardrobe during his over three hour long concerts from 2008 to 2013. How many visitors were really there was irrelevant; the Bell Centre was filled to the rim. The “Tower Of Song- A Memorial Tribute To Leonard Cohen” was sold out. Expectations were high as fans of the Canadian Singer/Songwriter pilgrimmed from all over the world to Montreal to pay tribute to their deceased idol.

  • Ry Cooder's 'One Meat Ball'
    RY COODER AND ‘ONE MEAT BALL’ Ry Cooder is not just a superb musician and writer: he is also a superb archivist, and a master at finding and resuscitating old songs. He Carl Tighe has done this several times. One of the songs he rediscovered, reinvented and recorded is ‘One Meat Ball’. Ry (Ryland) Cooder was born on 15 March 1947 in Los Angeles, California. He lost an eye at the age of four and is said to have taken up guitar as a kind of compensatory activity. He first attracted attention with his guitar playing when he was working with The Seeds. He went on to play with Taj Mahal’s band The Rising Sons and later with Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band. He has played with The Rolling Stones, Little Feat, The Chieftains, John Lee Hooker, Ali Farka Touré and he has written several film scores including the music and soundtrack for Wim Wender’s film Paris Texas (1984). Cooder’s recording career began with the album Ry Cooder (1970), and now includes dust bowl folk music, Tex-Mex, soul, gospel, rock and roll, blues, rag-time, jazz, cross- over and just about everything in between. At a time when the US still has a total embargo on contact and trade with revolutionary communist Cuba, Cooder has been a major force behind the rediscovery of Cuban music and Cuban musicians. Cooder risked his citizenship to visit Cuba and to record the Buena Vista Social Club. He later worked on Wim Wender’s documentary The Buena Vista Social Club (1999), which was nominated for an Academy award.

  • Messages of American Popular Song to Women During World War II
    “I’m Doin’ It for Defense”: Messages of American Popular Song to Women during World War II A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Amy Brooks BM, Bob Jones University, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract World War II presented many new opportunities for American women. In this time of need, they were called upon to take an active part in the war effort, whether by means of working in a factory, growing a victory garden, or serving as a volunteer for wartime organizations. Women made great strides forward in areas such as the workforce and the military. The American popular song industry promoted these new roles for women. I have compiled over 150 songs from 1940 to1945 that relate to women’s roles during the World War II era. Of these songs, I have chosen a select number of songs that best demonstrate popular culture’s attitudes and actions towards women during the war. These songs can be divided into five categories: women in the military, women in the workforce, women’s war effort, women’s responsibilities to men in uniform, and women in the immediate post-war period. I have studied the representative songs by considering their lyrics to identify the objectives supported by the popular song industry. I took into consideration the venues in which they were presented and how these performances influenced their reception.

  • Biometric Technologies and Freedom of Expression 2021 First Published by ARTICLE 19 in April 2021
    When bodies become data: Biometric technologies and freedom of expression 2021 First published by ARTICLE 19 in April 2021 ARTICLE 19 works for a world where all people everywhere can freely express themselves and actively engage in public life without fear of discrimination. We do this by working on two interlocking freedoms, which set the foundation for all our work. The Freedom to Speak concerns everyone’s right to express and disseminate opinions, ideas and information through any means, as well as to disagree from, and question power-holders. The Freedom to Know concerns the right to demand and receive information by powerholders for transparency good governance and sustainable development. When either of these freedoms comes under threat, by the failure of power-holders to adequately protect them, ARTICLE 19 speaks with one voice, through courts of law, through global and regional organisations, and through civil society wherever we are present.
