In this catalog you will find a year's worth of activities that will enrich your life. Common Ground on the Hill is a traditional, roots-based music and arts organization founded in 1994, offering quality learning experiences with master musicians, artists, dancers, writers, filmmakers and educators while exploring cultural diversity in search of a common ground among ethnic, gender, age, and racial groups. The Baltimore Sun has compared Common Ground on the Hill to the Chautauqua and Lyceum movements, precursors to this exciting program. Our world is one of immense diversity. As we explore and celebrate this diversity, we find that what we have in common with one another far outweighs our differences. Our common ground is our humanity, often best expressed by artistic traditions that have enriched human experience through the ages. We invite you to join us in searching for common ground as we assemble around the belief that we can improve ourselves and our world by searching for the common ground in one another, through our artistic traditions. In a world filled with divisive, negative news, we seek to discover, create and celebrate good news. We continue to grow! Common Ground on the Hill is a multifaceted year-round program, including two separate Traditions Weeks of summer classes, concerts and activities, held on the campus of McDaniel College, two Music and Arts festivals held at the Carroll County Farm Museum, two seven-event Monthly Concert Series held in Westminster and Baltimore, and this summer's second annual Common Ground on Seminary Ridge at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Two new Common Ground on the Hill programs will launch in 2014: In January, Common Ground on the Shore in Chincoteague, Virginia, and in March, Common Ground on the Border in Sahuarita, Arizona. As a Common Ground on the Hill participant you may choose from a broad spectrum of the arts springing from a wealth of traditions. Whether your interest is instrumental music, fine arts and craft, singing, dance, spoken or written word; whether the traditions that interest you are African American, Native American, Middle Eastern, Latino, Celtic, Appalachian, Asian or Scandinavian in origin, to name a few, you will find activities and events that will renew you. You will meet people who will inspire you and, believe it or not, you will inspire others as you reach for common ground. We look forward to seeing you this summer and throughout the year! Walt Michael, Founder & Executive Director “You owe it to yourself to attend one of the sessions… Common Ground on the Hill is a cornucopia of artistic expression.” ~ Baltimore Sun As a student during the 1960’s at Western Maryland College (now McDaniel College), Walt went to Appalachia with the Student Opportunities Service to participate in community action work and traveled to parts of the Deep South to work in voter registration campaigns. While working with America’s poor and disenfranchised, he encountered the beauty and power of traditional music. For forty years, Walt has led a variety of ensembles, performing throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. He returned to his alma mater in 1994 to found Common Ground on the Hill. As Executive Director, Walt leads Common Ground on the Hill toward its stated goal of seeking racial and cultural harmony through the arts.

  • Clawhammer Illuminations What Would THESE Guys Do? Five High-Profile Progressive Clawhammer Artists Answer
    Clawhammer Illuminations What would THESE guys do? Five high-profile progressive clawhammer artists answer common questions concerning the banjo Clawhammer Illuminations What would THESE guys do? Five high-profile progressive clawhammer artists answer common questions concerning the banjo Online banjo forums are filled with all sorts of questions from players interested in instrument choices, banjo set up, personal playing styles, technique, etc. As valuable as these forums might be, they can also be confusing for players trying to navigate advice posted from banjoists who's playing experience might range from a few weeks to literally decades. It was these forum discussions that started me thinking about how nice it would to have access to a collection of banjo related questions that were answered by some of the most respected "progressive" clawhammer banjoists performing today. I am very excited about this project as I don't believe any comprehensive collection of this nature has been published before… Mike Iverson 1 © 2013 by Mikel D. Iverson Background Information: Can you describe what it is about your personal style of play that sets you apart from other clawhammer banjoists? What recording have you made that best showcases this difference? Michael Miles: As musicians, I believe we are the sum of what he have heard. So the more you listen, the richer you get. My personal musical style on the banjo is in great part rooted in Doc Watson and JS Bach. Through Doc Watson, I learned about the phrasing of traditional music. Through Bach, I learned the majesty and reach of all music.

I am honored to be your Regional Director at this exciting time in the life of the American Harp Society. Please let me know how I can facilitate communications between and among harpists in the Region. This Newsletter is one means of spreading the word among all the chapters in the Region, but it comes only once a year. There will be a second, email-only, message in the spring, so it is vitally important that we have accurate email addresses for all harpists. We send this newsletter to let you know about harp-happenings that are closer and less expensive (some are even free!) than the National meetings that are coming up. Please let me know of new items that arise so I can include them in the spring email blast. And donʼt forget to send me your accurate email address.

The tone, which starts out light and self- deprecating—the curse of many a book about English cricket and minority enthusiasms among the English in general—deepens, as we gain some insight into what it took to be a professional cricketer in a time when English cricket was woefully run and still dominated by notions of amateurism that weren't fit for purpose against much tougher opposition.
