In the background: William Wallace Gilchrist, 1846-1916. William Wallace Gilchrist was born in Jersey City, New Jersey, in 1846. Gilchrist studied law and tried other business occupations, but finally decided to pursue a musical career. He accepted a position as a church organist in Cincinnati in 1870, where he also taught at the Cincinnati Conservatory.
Gilchrist sang as a baritone soloist in oratorios before deciding to pursue composition, conducting, and teaching. Gilchrist's earliest successes as a composer came in the form of prizes awarded by the Abt Society of Philadelphia in 1878, the Mendelssohn Glee Club of New York in 1884, and the Cincinnati Festival Association in 1882. Notes. Sun Kil Moon. Sun Kil Moon is an American folk rock act from San Francisco, California, founded in 2002. Initially a continuation of the defunct indie rock band Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon is now the primary recording moniker of vocalist and guitarist Mark Kozelek.
The project is named after the Korean lightweight boxer Sung-Kil Moon.[2] Following the delayed release of Red House Painters' final studio album, Old Ramon (2001), vocalist and guitarist Kozelek began recording new material under the name Sun Kil Moon with bandmates Anthony Koutsos (drums) and Jerry Vessel (bass), alongside Geoff Stanfield and Tim Mooney. The resulting album, Ghosts of the Great Highway, was released in 2003 to widespread critical acclaim. The project's second studio album, Tiny Cities (2005), was composed entirely of Modest Mouse cover songs. History[edit] The band's follow-up Tiny Cities was released in November 2005 on Kozelek's own label Caldo Verde Records.

Percussionist Leon Mobley playing a modified cajón; traditional cajones have the hole at the back, opposite the tapa Listening example of a Cajón A cajón (Spanish pronunciation: [kaˈxon] ka-HON, "box", "crate" or "drawer") is nominally a box-shaped percussion instrument originally from Peru, played by slapping the front or rear faces (generally thin plywood) with the hands, fingers, or sometimes various implements such as brushes, mallets, or sticks. Cajones are primarily played in Afro-Peruvian music, as well as contemporary styles of flamenco and jazz among other genres.[1] The term cajón is also applied to other unrelated box drums used in Latin American music such as the cajón de rumba used in Cuban rumba and the cajón de tapeo used in Mexican folk music.
Sheets of 0.5 to 0.75 inches (1.3 to 1.9 cm) thick wood are generally used for five sides of the box. A thinner sheet of plywood is nailed on as the sixth side, and acts as the striking surface or head. Origins and evolution[edit] Hang - Wikipedia. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hang may refer to: Timeline by 1701-1800Did Robert Robinson Wander as He Feared? – Church History.
Robert Robinson was just a small boy when his dad died. In 18th century England, there was little in the way of a social welfare system and this meant that he had to go to work while still very young. Without a father to guide and steady him, Robert fell in with bad companions. One day his gang of rowdies harassed a drunken gypsy. Pouring liquor into her, they demanded she tell their fortunes for free.
Pointing her finger at Robert she told him he would live to see his children and grandchildren. This struck a tender spot in his heart. Robert Robinson decided to go hear the Methodist preacher George Whitefield. Finally, at the age of twenty, Robert made peace with God and immediately set out to become a Methodist preacher himself. Come, Thou Fount of every blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise.
This was printed the next year. In the last stanza, Robert had written: Prone to wander Robert was. Bibliography: Swiss Fiddle Music | Glamping in Switzerland. Way back in September I started jamming with the Roustabouts. They meet once a month in McGee’s Irish Pub and invite anyone who plays fiddle, banjo, mandolin, guitar, bass, etc. to join in playing Old-Time Music (you know, from Appalachia – in an Irish bar in Switzerland – it works).
The American fiddler in the Roustabouts is Elizabeth (from Chicago), and last week she emailed me to say that there was a Swiss Fiddle Jam. Did I want to join her? Of course I did! But Swiss Fiddle Music? So we took our fiddles to El Lokal, a funky bar downtown. Elizabeth and I ended up not playing along, but I videoed a few of their songs and am going to learn them, and Eva’s website (which is under reconstruction since last week) had some links which led me to a 40-page document with sheet music for Swiss Fiddle. Like this: Like Loading... Swiss Fiddle Music A forgotten Tradition rediscovered. Since the collection was published in spring 2002, interest has grown in old Swiss folk music.
And as a result of this interest, more and more old manuscripts are being discovered, such as the ‘Altfrentsch’ collection of Appenzell music from the 18th century, the Peter Davoli collection from Samedan (1895) or the music book of Anton Stadelmann of Central Switzerland from 1824 (see below for more details). Despite the fresh breeze blowing and the change in our perception of our traditional music, we in Switzerland are only at the beginning of a development that had been set in motion in other countries as early as the 1970s. ‘Back to the roots’ was the motto of the folk movement back then, when many countries discovered their original folk music and brought it to new life. With few exceptions, the folk movement in Switzerland at the time was interested in almost everything except its own traditions.
Many of the instruments were made by the farmers themselves during the winter. MANdolinMAN. Abraham, Inc.: Klezmer With A Funky Hip-Hop Beat. Propagandhi - Wikipedia. This article is about the Canadian punk band. For the British musician Propa-Gandhi, see Aki Nawaz. Propagandhi is a Canadian punk rock band formed in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba in 1986 by guitarist Chris Hannah and drummer Jord Samolesky. The band is currently located in Winnipeg, Manitoba[1] and completed by bassist Todd Kowalski and guitarist Sulynn Hago. While their earlier work was aligned with the punk rock and skate punk tradition, in later years Propagandhi records have moved towards a heavier and more technical heavy metal-influenced sound.[2][3][4] Both in their lyrics and hands-on activism, the band's members champion various radical left wing and anarchist causes and veganism, and have taken a vocal stance against human rights violations, sexism, racism, nationalism, homophobia, imperialism, capitalism and organized religion.[5][6] History[edit] Formation, first two records (1986–1997)[edit] Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes (1997–2005)[edit] Members[edit] Timeline.

Bakersfield sound. History[edit] Two important British Invasion-era rock bands also displayed some Bakersfield influences. The Beatles recorded a popular version of Owens' "Act Naturally.
" Years later, The Rolling Stones made their connection explicit in the lyrics of the very Bakersfield-sounding "Far Away Eyes," which begins: "I was driving home early Sunday morning, through Bakersfield ... ". The Bakersfield Sound has such a large influence on the West Coast music scene that many small guitar companies set up shop in Bakersfield in the 1960s. Buck Owens and The Buckaroos[edit] Buck Owens and The Buckaroos developed it further, incorporating different styles of music to fit his music tastes. Buck Owens not only aided in the development of the Bakersfield Sound, he also helped preserve its history. Other successful artists[edit] In an interview, Dwight Yoakam defined the term "Bakersfield sound": References[edit] ^ Jump up to: a b c d McNutt, Randy (2002).
External links[edit] Ewan MacColl.

He was married three times: to theatre director Joan Littlewood; to Jean Newlove, with whom he had two children, including the singer/songwriter Kirsty MacColl; and to American folksinger Peggy Seeger, with whom he had three children, Kitty, Calum and Neill. He collaborated with Littlewood in the theatre, and with Seeger in folk music.

Stomu Yamashta (or Yamash'ta), born Tsutomu Yamashita (山下勉, Yamashita Tsutomu? , 15 March 1947[1]) is a Japanese percussionist, keyboardist and composer. He is best known for pioneering and popularising a fusion of traditional Japanese percussive music with Western progressive rock music in the 1960s and 1970s. Biography[edit] At the turn of the 1970s he worked with Peter Maxwell Davies and brought the Red Buddha Theatre company from Japan to Europe, acting as their director, producer and composer, writing and performing in the multi-media event The Man From The East, with Morris Pert's Come To The Edge providing the musical backing.
Stomu Yamash'ta also appears in the last episode of Tony Palmer's All You Need is Love: The Story of Popular Music.[5] Name[edit] Originally known as Tsutomu Yamashita, most of his albums for Western audiences use the name "Stomu Yamash'ta", though some (such as Go and Raindog) use the name "Yamashta" (without the apostrophe).[6] Discography[edit] See also[edit] Mapleshade Records - Danny Knicely and Will Lee. Bluegrass Unlimited by Henry Koretzky It's unfortunate tthe duo format has been relegated to the sidelines of contemporary bluegrass, in favor of the fullsized (quartet or quintet) band. From the stylistic ancestors and cousins like the Monroe Brothers, the Louvins, Hazel and Alice, and the Blue Sky Boys, to current paired performers such as Jim Hurst & Missy Raines, we can be reminded that there's a lot to commend that spares format of two voices and two instruments working closely and skillfully together.
Which brings us to this fine new recording by Danny Knicely and Will Lee. While I confess I had never heard of these two accomplished singers/pickers from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, this CD makes me ready to make up for lost time. However, standing on their own abilities and reputations here, they acquit themselves quite well. Two voices and two pairs of hands can produce some mighty fine music, and this CD is a welcome reminder. Mind and music. Bobby Hicks. Paul Weller.
