They include examinations of LGBTQ community, civil rights, the law, health, art and artists, commerce, the military, sports and leisure, and sex, love, and relationships. MAKING COMMUNITY: THE PLACES AND15 SPACES OF LGBTQ COLLECTIVE IDENTITY FORMATION Christina B. Hanhardt Introduction In the summer of 2012, posters reading "MORE GRINDR=FEWER GAY BARS” appeared taped to signposts in numerous gay neighborhoods in North America—from Greenwich Village in New York City to Davie Village in Vancouver, Canada.1 The signs expressed a brewing fear: that the popularity of online lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) social media—like Grindr, which connects gay men based on proximate location—would soon replace the bricks-and-mortar institutions that had long facilitated LGBTQ community building. -
Bisexual Sexual Health Resources
The LGBT Health and Inclusion Project Locally Available Sexual Health Materials – A Consultation with Bisexual People The LGBT Health and Inclusion Project NHS Sussex and Brighton and Hove City Council (BHCC), have commissioned a consortium of organisations providing services to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) people in the city to conduct a series of consultations with local LGBT people. The aim is to use the information gathered to feed into local service commissioning, planning and delivery. The partner agencies are: Brighton and Hove LGBT Switchboard, THT South, MindOut, Allsorts Youth Project, Brighton Bothways and the Clare Project. The consortium has employed a worker to coordinate the project, known as the LGBT Health and Inclusion Project (LGBT HIP). Please note, the following report presents information about the consultation and engagement work conducted by LGBT HIP and should not be taken as a position statement of any of LGBT HIPs Consortium partners. Background A local LGBT action-research project (Count Me In Too) presented a number of important findings in relation to sexual health and bisexual people.1 The research indicated that bisexual participants perceived that sexual health information available locally did not cater to their needs as bisexual people, and a significant proportion (28%) said that it was not appropriate to their sexual practices.2 The LGBT HIP consortium therefore identified a need to consult bisexual people about sexual health information available locally. The aim of the initiative was: 1. To consult bisexual people about their perceptions of the range of sexual health resources available locally and to make recommendations for further development. -

Notes ON THE MUSIC – TON’S KADEN HENDERSON ON ARTHUR HONEGGER’S RUGBY MATT DINE MATT Full Contact Music Honegger’s second tone poem, entitled Rugby, which we will be hearing today, was composed in 1928. Although it bears the name Rugby, the composer himself insisted that this work was not programmatic in a traditional sense. Despite what Honegger may have said, it takes little imagination to find oneself in the middle of the pitch dodging tack- les left and right from the very first note. Immediately from the downbeat it is apparent that Honegger is not alluding to two-hand-touch rugby, but rather the sport in its full contact, “hold no pris- oners” variety. The very first notes from The Composer the strings hit the audience like a ton of When thinking about the great orches- bricks as the cascading strings sweep us tral tone poems in our repertoire, the into a musical dogpile. -
Gerry Mulligan Discography
GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”. -

Improvisation, Musical Communities, and the COVID-19 Pandemic
Critical Studies in Improvisation / Études critiques en improvisation, Vol. 14, No. 1 The Poetics of Engagement: Improvisation, Musical Communities, and the COVID-19 Pandemic Daniel Fischlin, Laura Risk, and Jesse Stewart Necrophonics: Improvising in the Time of the Pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic turned the music industry upside-down overnight and impacted music- making at all levels. In a typical year, by the month of March, summer festivals are putting the final touches on a year of planning and programming; venues are hosting a rush of spring tours and have booked the following season, if not beyond; agents and managers are looking a year or more ahead while paying their bills on revenue from current tours; and the artists who are playing these gigs, tours, and festivals are budgeting that work against leaner months to come. In 2020, none of that happened. Instead, we faced the sounds and silences of illness and death. Within the fields of jazz and improvised music alone, a sobering list of people who have passed away as a result of the COVID-19 virus includes Bootsie Barnes, Henry Grimes, Jonas Gwangwa, Giuseppi Logan, Mike Longo, Ellis Marsalis Jr., Wallace Roney, Manu Dibango, Bucky Pizzarelli, Lee Konitz, Onjae Allan Gumbs, and Marcelo Peralta. Not only did the pandemic threaten a generation of musicians whose age made them more vulnerable to the virus, so too did it threaten younger artists and artists from minoritized communities. Phil Edgar- Jones notes how “we are in danger of losing an entire generation of talent, as well as losing the momentum the cultural community has built up around diversity and inclusivity” (Edgar-Jones). -
