  • Awards to Recognize Individuals Who Have Made Major Contributions to Instrumental Mu- Sic Education
    A W A RDS Each year, The Midwest Clinic presents awards to recognize individuals who have made major contributions to instrumental mu- sic education. The Medal of Honor was introduced in 1962 as a way to honor conductors, educators, composers, and others whose unique service to music education and continuing influence on the development and improvement of bands and orchestras deserve special recognition. Over its fifty-one year history, the Medal of Honor has been presented to ninety-four individuals. The Music Industry Award honors persons for outstanding support of music education through their work in the music industry. This award was introduced in 1991 and has been presented twenty-seven times. In 1992, the International Award was introduced to honor individu- als who contribute to music education from around the globe, reflecting the growth of the Midwest Clinic from an event of national stature to one of international notoriety. The Midwest Clinic is pleased to honor the 2013 recipients of the Medal of Honor, the Music Industry Award and the International Award.

    BILL DANA BIOGRAPHY Many know Bill Dana as "José Jiménez", a classic character he created on the Steve Allen Show in the 1950's and continued to perform throughout his career, but Dana has also been a successful writer, author, cartoonist, producer, director, recording artist, inventor, and stand-up comedian. After serving as a decorated combat infantryman in WW II, Bill graduated Emerson College in Boston and entered show business, beginning his career as an NBC page at 30 Rock. His career took a major turn when he began writing for Don Adams including the now famous "Would You Believe?" jokes. Hired by Steve Allen to write on the original Steve Allen Tonight Show, he eventually became head writer. His creation of the José Jimenéz character in 1959 resulted in his own NBC show (1963-65). His comedy albums, as both José and Bill Dana, were top-sellers. He helped launch the careers of comedic greats such as Don Adams, Jackie Mason, Don Knotts, and Jim Nabors. A major career highlight for him was writing the "All In The Family" episode featuring Sammy Davis, Jr., consistently rated in TV Guide's "Top 100 Television Episodes of All Time". Adopted by the original seven Mercury astronauts, Dana became part of U.S. space history on May 5, 1961, when the first words from Planet Earth spoken to Alan Shepard, America's first man in space were....."OK, José, You're on your way." Bill and José are honored by inclusion in the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum and the Astronaut Hall of Fame.

Exactly a year after his last album, the well-received Construction Time & Demolition, he's back with a new album, Transience. For every song of Wreckless Eric's you remember from his early days on Stiff Records, he's recorded 10 more that you've probably never heard. The early DIY British indie label may have been his entry-level position into the music business, but Eric Goulden didn't stop making music after the novelty of Stiff Records - and his being known as Wreckless Eric - wore off. Forty years on, Goulden is still making insightful music while the original label is but a footnote in music history. On Transience, Eric is joined by friends including acoustic 12-string guitar player Alexander Turnquist, Cheap Trick bassist, Tom Petersson, Amy Rigby on piano and backing TRACK LISTING vocals, jazz horn player Artie Barbato, and on drums Steve Goulding, late of Graham Parker & the Rumour - the first 1.
