For the Best Music 1 The best landing for the best music With the newly paved runway in Dawson City, we perform landings with a little less rock and roll and a bit more smooth R&B. We’re proud to be a supporter of the Dawson City Music Festival. Our thanks to the organizers, volunteers and performers for another great event. We also extend our thanks to everyone involved in paving the Dawson City runway for their dedication and hard work. flyairnorth.com ATIN EBR G T EL HE C 41ST ANNUAL DAWSON CITY MUSIC FESTIVAL The Dawson City Music Festival Association (DCMF) is a non-profit charitable organization established in 1979, after a summer barbecue full of music and dancing in Dawson City, Yukon, Canada. The organization is led by one year-round Executive Director, a summer Production Assistant and Volunteer Coordinator, a dedicated Board of Directors, and of course, a long legacy of the best volunteers in the world - many of whom have been involved since the very early years, and have dedicated countless hours to this beautiful Festival. We’re thrilled to celebrate 41 years of music with you! The Dawson City Music Festival takes place on the Traditional Territory of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in, who have lived along the Klondike River for millennia. We gratefully acknowledge our status as their guests and are deeply appreciative of their generosity in hosting the Dawson City Music Festival for 41 years. Mähsi cho! Dawson City is a National Historic Site of Canada proudly maintained by Parks Canada.

On behalf of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Council and Citizens, I would like to provide a warm welcome to Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Traditional Territory. Dawson City prides itself on its First Nations heritage, gold- rush history, the arts community, and the Dawson City Music Festival. For many decades, this festival has formed an important part of our community’s diversity, bringing visitors and musicians together from many parts of the Yukon and the world and allowing all participants to enjoy many different venues in the heart of the Tr’ondëk (Klondike). On behalf of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in, I’d like to thank the organizers, funders, and volunteers who make this event possible and wish everyone a wonderful weekend of great music. Our Elders always say, “Please respect the land, keep it clean,” and while you’re here, be safe and above all, have a great time. —Chief Roberta Joseph 2 MAYOR’S MESSAGE The Dawson City Music Festival is the summit of summer fun and a big reason why Dawson is the territory’s cultural capital.

  • Music for the People: the Folk Music Revival
    MUSIC FOR THE PEOPLE: THE FOLK MUSIC REVIVAL AND AMERICAN IDENTITY, 1930-1970 By Rachel Clare Donaldson Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in History May, 2011 Nashville, Tennessee Approved Professor Gary Gerstle Professor Sarah Igo Professor David Carlton Professor Larry Isaac Professor Ronald D. Cohen Copyright© 2011 by Rachel Clare Donaldson All Rights Reserved For Mary, Laura, Gertrude, Elizabeth And Domenica ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would not have been able to complete this dissertation had not been for the support of many people. Historians David Carlton, Thomas Schwartz, William Caferro, and Yoshikuni Igarashi have helped me to grow academically since my first year of graduate school. From the beginning of my research through the final edits, Katherine Crawford and Sarah Igo have provided constant intellectual and professional support. Gary Gerstle has guided every stage of this project; the time and effort he devoted to reading and editing numerous drafts and his encouragement has made the project what it is today. Through his work and friendship, Ronald Cohen has been an inspiration. The intellectual and emotional help that he provided over dinners, phone calls, and email exchanges have been invaluable. I greatly appreciate Larry Isaac and Holly McCammon for their help with the sociological work in this project. I also thank Jane Anderson, Brenda Hummel, and Heidi Welch for all their help and patience over the years. I thank the staffs at the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage, the Kentucky Library and Museum, the Archives at the University of Indiana, and the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress (particularly Todd Harvey) for their research assistance.

  • Akutaq1: the Impact of Colonialism on Inuit Religiosity and Literature
    ESSAYS ___________________________________________________________ EJAS Akutaq1: The Impact of Colonialism on Inuit Religiosity and Literature Rita Nándori The Spiritual Shift: Magic Songs Versus Hymns and Journals “Above each hut waved a little white flag—signs that the inmates had relinquished their old heathen faith and become Christian” (Rasmussen 118). The shaman Aua had explained to Knud Rasmussen that traditions based on experience and generational knowledge are what the Inuit adhere to. The harsh Arctic life is reflected in Aua’s description of Inuit beliefs. The shaman explains that fear is the primary guiding force of life: “We fear the elements with which we have to fight in their fury to wrest out food from land and sea. We fear cold and famine in our snow huts. We fear the sickness that is daily to be seen amongst us. We fear the souls of the dead of human and animals alike.” (Rasmussen 130) This summary of Inuit faith is not foreign to Christianity where god-fearing is an often-used term. All of the things feared by Aua—such as illness and a variety of hardships—are feared by Christians as well. While Christians believe that everything is governed by the will of God, the Inuit are less certain why things happen the way they do (Rasmussen 129-130). The existence of the spirit world— something divine that is beyond the material world— that intertwines all is not unknown to Inuit faith. To be a good person is what the Christian commandments teach people, similarly Inuit teachings rest upon proper behaviour and avoidance of evil doings (Piercey-Lewis 252-253).

  • MOOSEHIDE GATHERING 2014 Welcome
    MOOSEHIDE GATHERING 2014 Welcome A Message from Chief Eddie Taylor Drin Hǫzǫ Guests, Welcome to Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Traditional Territory and the 2014 Moosehide Gathering. These gatherings are an opportunity to keep the values of our ancestors alive and teach future generations. They help us reconnect with friends and family from around the North and make new connections with visitors from around the world. Above all, it’s a great chance to enjoy the peace and spirituality that Moosehide offers. On behalf of all Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in, it’s my pleasure to welcome you to Moosehide. You honour us with your presence; your visit is a gift. Mähsi cho, Chief Eddie Taylor The Story of the Moosehide Gathering In the late 1800s, Chief Isaac of the Hän people recognized his community’s traditions and way of life were threatened by the massive impact of gold seekers to the Klondike Valley. He sent his First Nation’s dancing stick (the gänhäk) and traditional Hän songs to the old Tanacross village at Lake Mansfield in present day Alaska. At this time, the Hän people moved from their fish camp at the mouth of the Klondike and Yukon rivers, called Tr'ochëk, to Moosehide Village where we celebrate the Gathering today. The Tanacross community and extended family members held the songs for Chief Isaac's people until they were ready to reclaim them. Laura Sanford and others from Tanacross held our Hän songs over the years. In 1991, at the Yukon Aboriginal Language Conference, the renewal of Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in culture began.

  • Fw POLARIS MUSIC PRIZE ADDS TITLE to the LONG LIST
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE POLARIS MUSIC PRIZE ADDS ONE MORE TITLE TO THE 2014 LONG LIST TORONTO, ON – Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Steve Jordan, Director and Founder of the Polaris Music Prize, announced the addition of Greg MacPherson’s album Fireball to the 2014 Long List. Due to an incorrect reference in the prize’s new web-based voting system, there was a miscalculation of votes. The error was discovered and corrected, resulting in the addition of MacPherson’s album to the list. One title that would have been pushed out with MacPherson’s inclusion will also re- main on the Long List. “We pride ourselves in triple checking to ensure every ballot is counted correctly so obviously this is quite an embarrassment for us. The developers have assured us all is working properly mov- ing into our Short List vote. The bonus for music lovers is that yet another deserving album gets Polaris recognition,” said Steve Jordan on the error. 2014 Polaris Music Prize Long List: Arcade Fire – Reflektor AroarA – In The Pines Austra – Olympia Philippe B – Ornithologie, la nuit BADBADNOTGOOD – III Basia Bulat – Tall Tall Shadow Chromeo – White Women Cousins – The Halls Of Wickwire Cowboy Junkies / Various Artists – The Kennedy Suite The Darcys – Warring Dead Obies – Montréal $ud Mac DeMarco – Salad Days DIANA – Perpetual Surrender Drake – Nothing Was The Same Freedom Writers – NOW Fresh Snow – I Frog Eyes – Carey’s Cold Spring Gorguts – Colored Sands Tim Hecker – Virgins Jimmy Hunt – Maladie d’amour Jessy Lanza – Pull My Hair Back Greg MacPherson - Fireball Kalle
