Music of and for the World: a Biography Mundi Displays a Healthy Disregard for Where the Boundaries of Folk, Classical, and Rock Lie UNDI Music of and for the world: A Biography Mundi displays a healthy disregard for where the boundaries of folk, classical, and rock lie. With classical guitar, violin, cello, bass, and an arsenal of percussion (both traditional and found), the dynamic quintet from Austin, Texas masterfully creates a sound that is rich, celebratory, and deeply emotive. They infuse their old world compositions with the energy and vitality of their diverse influences. The truth is, this ensemble’s vision “epic, uplifting, and ultimately inspiring” is old and new, classical !e Austin Chronicle and contemporary. From a tour of Spain, with sold-out concerts in millennium-old cathedrals, to the rousing successes of the Victoria Bach Festival, Austin Friends of Traditional Music Festival, and Celtic Music Festival - Mundi’s voyage is taking them upward. The ensemble has just released their second album, The Book & the Flower. Some of Texas’s most notable talents have taken notice of Mundi’s trajectory and are working with them on collaborative projects, including Conspirare’s Craig Hella Johnson, Capital City Men’s Chorus, and a forthcoming CD with Tibetan lama Tulku Thubten “among the most intoxicating inventions Rinpoche. this music-mad city has distilled.” Readers of The Austin American-Statesman Austin Chronicle named them one of the Top Instrumental Bands for 2005. They were also among esteemed company with an Austin Critic’s Table Awards 05-06 nomination for Best Chamber Performance alongside Jupiter String Quartet, Miró Quartet, Anton Nel, and Texas Piano Quartet. G u i t a r i s t /d i r e c t o r Darrel Mayers, violinist Bruce Colson and cellist Carolyn Hagler (Austin Symphony players), percussionist Ric Furley, and bassist Mario Gonzalez create a world of music that transcends genres.

Having grown up in Sussex, England, Darrel began studying with Scottish composer Kenneth Dempster after moving to London in the early 1990s, and assembled a quartet (flute, tabla, cello and guitar) called the Musicians of Bremmen. Upon moving to Austin this same formation coalesced into a world fusion group Happy Valley. They released two albums - ‘Children of Gods’, and ‘Voyage into Indigo’ - the second one acclaimed by Billboard magazine. He has composed soundtracks for the CD-ROM “Wings of Fire”, and is currently teaching percussion at St. Andrew’s Episcopal School. Bruce Colson Violin With a strictly classical upbringing, Colson started playing violin at age 7, performing professionally by 16, and by college was a member of the Austin Symphony Orchestra. Bruce holds a degree in music from the University of Texas. He also enjoys musical theater, playing with Zachary Scott, Austin Musical Theater, Zilker Summer Musical, and the Gilbert and Sullivan Society of Austin. He is a member of the Austin Lyric Opera and the Victoria Symphony Orchestra and performs with choral groups around Austin as well as the Golden Arm Trio and the Golden Hornet Project. Hear him on soundtracks for both Hollywood and local productions and on stage with the likes of Red Skelton, Ray Price, Rod Stewart and Garth Brooks to name a few. Carolyn Hagler Cello Carolyn Hagler moved from California to Austin to begin studies on a Master of Music degree at the University of Texas. After completing her degree, she won a position with the New World Symphony in Miami Florida, where she worked with Michael Tilson-Thomas and Leonard Bernstein. Carolyn is the founder and director of the Barton Strings, and a tenured member of the Austin Symphony Orchestra. She has recorded with Joe McDermott on his latest CD and on the “Spy Kids 2” soundtrack and has performed with Steve Wariner and the late Chet Atkins on a TNN special and with the Nelson Brothers on a PBS special. Ric Furley Percussion A native of Corpus Christi, Ric was drawn to percussion from an early age. With encouragement from his mother Pat, a harpist with the Corpus Christi Symphony, Ric developed fast, and by the age of 17 had joined his mother as member of the symphony. Ric studied with Norm Weinberg, an electronic percussion pioneer, and has toured Mexico with Flecha de Tiempo. He also played at the Kennedy Center with Urban 15. Mario Gonzalez Bass Mario met Mayers in the mid 1990s and they collaborated for 6 years in Happy Valley. His style stems from the improvisational, play by-ear-tradition of many of his greatest influences. Mario’s bass lines have been an integral part of his collaborations with Mayers in Happy Valley’s two CDs and Mundi’s unique sound—not to mention his percussion work live and on Mundi’s recordings. www.mundiensemble.com • contact Darrel Mayers • 512.380.0234 • [email protected] UNDI Music of and for the world: Press I August 18, 2005 December 2, 2004 Performance Review “Apple Howling” Review ´´´´ Mundi ensemble offers a world of It’s unlikely that you will ever quirky fun.

  • Constructing Musical Associations
    Constructing Musical Associations through Instruments: The Role of the Instrument Maker in the Maker-Instrument-Player Network within the Neo-Medievalist Gothic Music Scene William Klugh Connor, III Royal Holloway University of London Department of Music This thesis is submitted to partially fulfill the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology. 2011 1 Declaration of Authorship I, William Klugh Connor, III, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented within it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ___________________________________________ Date: _____________________________________________ 2 Abstract Constructing Musical Associations through Instruments: The Role of the Instrument Maker in the Maker-Instrument-Player Network within the Neo-Medievalist Gothic Music Scene Many studies of musical instruments have shown the ways in which instruments embody and negotiate cultural and social significance and meaning, but little of this work has focused on the makers of those instruments. According to Alfred Gell, artisans infuse “intentionalities” into their wares that embody the agency of the artisan. In this thesis, I address the agency of makers of musical instruments to gain a better understanding of the roles they play in defining how instruments acquire their social and cultural meanings. These meanings are constantly in flux and, in turn, inform the maker’s decisions and assist in formulating a maker’s role within a musical community. Makers interact with community members primarily through the construction of their instruments as part of what I have called a Maker-Instrument-Player network. Drawing on Actor-Network Theory, I outline some of the ways in which musical instruments afford associations and engender exchanges within a musical community, and I unpack the complexities of the maker’s role.

Bei meinem ERASMUS- Aufenthalt in Stockholm bekam ich die Chance, mich intensiver mit schwedischer Musik zu beschäftigen. Im Sommer 2004 erhielt ich die Möglichkeit, ein Praktikum am Svenskt Visarkiv zu absolvieren, wo ich von Prof. Dan Lundberg und seinen KollegInnen sehr herzlich aufgenommen wurde, und die mir auch während meiner Diplomarbeitsrecherche ihre Räumlichkeiten zur Verfügung stellten. Dafür und für die Offenheit und die Ermutigungen der MitarbeiterInnen des Archivs, der staatlichen Musikbibliothek und des Musikmuseums, möchte ich mich herzlich bedanken. Sie haben sich wie selbstverständlich im Herbst und Winter 2005 meiner angenommen, wenn ich Archivmaterial nicht finden konnte, Probleme mit dem Tonbandgerät oder inhaltliche Fragen hatte. Mein großer Dank gilt auch Prof. Regine Allgayer-Kaufmann, Prof. Dan Lundberg und Prof. Sven Haakon Rossel für ihre Betreuung und sowohl inhaltliche, als auch organisatorische Unterstützung vor und während des Schreibens meiner Diplomarbeit. Nicht zu vergessen sind auch all meine Lehrenden an den Universitäten Wien, Stockholm und Banská Bystrica, meine Instrumental- und GesangslehrerInnen, sowie die Universität Wien und das Büro für internationale Beziehungen für die finanzielle Unterstützung durch das KWA- und Förderungsstipendium.
