Albuquerque, NM

I think that once a year, it is a great idea to review one of our most important historical contracts: the declaration of Independence. The real reason that we have the 4th of July. May we remember, cherish, and uphold the truths here. May we celebrate that we are American CItizens and can protect our freedoms.

Whether we have really upheld these beliefs, repsected our citiznens, or show a reverence for America, I work in heart and mind towards a better realization of democracy that we set forth to do. Happy Birthday America!

I hope you are all having a great 4th of July. I will try to back in a few minutes with some other news.

Do go see this movie on a DVD. On the near of July 4, when the country will rise up and celebrate the birth of our nation, with dance, pancake breakfasts, music festivals, and fireworks, how many will reflect on the history of economics, commerce, wars, and our most recently denied challenge: global warming.

In the movie, Mr Wiberforce took on an overwhelming challenge and experienced many defeats. Yet, with the help of a woman, he regained his health and returned to his mission where he in a fine strategic move used a political ploy to put an end to slavery for the British empire. He also awakened a people’s sense of morality.

In these days the concept of morality seldom rises to challenge commerce running destructively wild on a rampage destined for destruction. Errant wars divert the people’s conscience so that powers to be can ignore our plant’s health, our elder’s medical care, among multiple other human issues.

What is America’s sense of morality where oil is concerned. In the USA, government and industry lunge forward gasping for more drilling, more nuclear power plants, more coal plants, hoping that their desperation will garnish more power, pollution, and control. Perhaps as stated in the movie, “the King is Mad…and the corporations crazy.

Industry, as in the movie, has lost all moral consciousness. Humans matter not, nor does the planet that sustains us. All too many good people are trapped in the guise of profit and need. I dare note if we combined 20% of the oil companies massive profit, and 40% of our militaries bomb budget, we could convert to alternate fuel and energy sources. Plus there would be plenty of new homegrown USA jobs for American workers. Alas morality and responsibility are values not in vogue by many these days.

Perhaps this fourth of July, we need to look deeply at our roots. Remember what America used to be. Commit ourselves to rid ourselves of an oppressive regime, and scandoulous and racketeerring commerce. Perhaps we need to stand united and find real solutions to our energy needs, and our planet’s health. Perhaps, even take responsibilty for taking care of the earth.

REVEREND PEYTON’S BIG DAMN BAND

“Like Robert Johnson on crack……”
The three-piece from Indianapolis kills with a high-energy sound steeped in classic Blues tradition. With acoustic guitar, dobro, a minimal drum kit and washboard, the trio concocts a rousing, hyper and authentic brand of Blues that sounds like the backwaters of the Mississippi delta. The Rev. Peyton has a voice dripping with the hallowed, life-worn distinctiveness of the masters, while brother Jayme Peyton (drums) and The Rev’s wife, “Washboard” Breezy, stir up a tornadic rhythmic whirl.

Pianist Yuja Wang performs at the 2nd Annual Chefs’ Gala
Ensemble Profile: Imani Winds
Audio version of Sweeney Todd wins 3 Audies

——————————————————————————–

Pianist Yuja Wang kicks off 2008 season with performance at the 2nd Annual Chefs’ Gala

One of the classical music world’s rising stars, pianist Yuja Wang helps to kick of the Festival’s season for the second time in as many years. On July 17, at the Festival’s opening gala at the Scottish Rite Center, Ms. Wang will give a recital featuring Chopin’s Barcarolle for piano in F-Sharp Minor, Op. 60, Liszt’s La Campanella, Mendelssohn- Bartholdy’s Scherzo from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Ginastera’s Ruvido ed ostinato from Sonata No. 1, Op. 22, Balakirev’s The Lark (Zhavoronok) (transcribed); Liszt’s Danse macabre, (transcribed), and Kapustin’s Variations for piano, Op. 41.

At 21, Ms. Wang has firmly established herself as one of the most significant pianists of her generation. She first came to international recognition in February 2005 when, on one days notice, she replaced Radu Lupu with the National Arts Centre Orchestra, Pinchas Zukerman conducting, and performed Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4. The success was immediate with the Canada press reporting “a star is born.” Ms. Wang was immediately reengaged to perform Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 1 that June and has been invited back every season since. In March 2007, her career received a major advancement when she replaced Martha Argrich playing the Tchaikovsky Concerto with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Charles Dutoit conducting.

Ms. Wang has performed with such renowned US orchestras as the New York Philharmonic, the Boston, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco and Kansas City symphonies, and abroad with the NHK Symphony Orchestra, the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, Tonhalle Orchestra (Switzerland), Nagoya Philharmonic (Japan), the China Philharmonic (Beijing) and the Guangzhou Symphony, to name a few.

Highlights of Ms. Wang’s 2007-08 season included her debut in Lisbon, Portugal where she replaced Evgeny Kissin, performing both Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 and Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 3; closing the 2007 St. Petersburg Winter Arts Festival at the invitation of Mo. Temirkanov, and replacing Yefim Bronfman on one days notice to perform Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with Swedish Radio Orchestra.

Born in Beijing, China in 1987, Yuja Wang was drawn to the piano at the age of six when she began studying with Professors Ling Yuan and Zhou Guangren at Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music. She moved to the United States at age 15 to attend Philadelphia’s prestigious Curtis Institute of Music, where she studied under Gary Graffman. She has also studied with John Perry at the Aspen Music Festival (2002 and 2003 summers), at the Mount Royal College Conservatory Academy Program for Gifted Youth with teachers Hung Kuan Chen and Tema Blackstone (2001-2002) and at three Morningside Music summer programs (1999-2001) at Calgary’s Mount Royal College. Before moving to the United States, Ms. Wang was a prizewinner in many regional competitions within China, as well as competitions in Spain and Germany. In 2001 she won first prize in the Junior Group of the Seiler International Piano Competition, and was the third prize-winner and recipient of the Special Jury Award at the First Japan Sendai International Music Competition. In 2002, Ms. Wang won the Aspen Music Festival’s concerto competition, and in 2006 she received the Gilmore Young Artist Award

Yuja Wang can be heard in five performances throughout week one of the 2008 Festival season, including a solo piano recital on July 22 featuring works by Chopin, Scriabin, Albeniz and Beethoven.

Ensemble Profile: Imani Winds

Since 1997, the Grammy nominated Imani Winds have been enriching the traditional wind quintet repertoire with European, American, African and Latin American traditions. As their Swahili name Imani (”faith”) denotes, the five adventurous musicians (Valerie Coleman, flutist and composer; Toyin Spellman-Diaz, oboe; Mariam Adam, clarinet; Jeff Scott, horn; Monica Ellis, bassoon) have followed their mission closely, carving out a distinct presence in the classical music world with their dynamic playing, culturally poignant programming, and inspirational outreach programs.

The ensemble celebrates their 10-year anniversary with an ambitious commissioning initiative aptly entitled the Legacy Commissioning Project, to extend over five years and to include 10 composers from different musical disciplines. The project kicks off in 2008 with world premieres by Alvin Singleton and Roberto Sierra commissioned by Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival, Chamber Music Northwest, and Stanford Lively Arts.

Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival audiences have the opportunity to hear the Imani Winds in performance in four concerts at the beginning of the season: on July 26 in a concert featuring Mongo Santamaria’s Afro Blue (arranged by Valerie Coleman); Paquita D’Riviera’s Kites Over Havana; Astor Piazzolla’s Fuga Y Misterio (arranged by Jeff Scott); Julio Medaglia’s Suite Popular Brasiliera; Valerie Coleman’s Portaits of Josephine Baker and Astor Piazzolla’s Libertango (arranged by Jeff Scott) on July 27 and 28 as one half of the group performing the world premiere of Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival’s 2008co-commission with Chamber Music Northwest of Roberto Sierra’s Concierto de Camara (the nonet is performed by the Imani Winds and Miami String Quartet), and in a youth concert on the morning of July 28.

Through commissions and performance the quintet regularly collaborates with other artists. Josephine Baker: A Life of Le Jazz Hot, a collaboration with chanteuse René Marie and choreographer Christopher Huggins, has been performed in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, among other cities, to great acclaim. Imani Winds performed the world premiere of Terra Incognita, the first-ever commission for classical artists by jazz composer, performer and legend Wayne Shorter, and have shared the stage with Yo-Yo Ma for a rousing performance of Jeff Scott’s arrangement of Libertango. In 2007 the ensemble collaborated with bassist/trombonist Chris Brubeck of the famed Brubeck family for a performance and recording of music written especially for wind quintet and jazz quartet (to be released by Koch in 2008). The group’s Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center residency culminated in a recital in New York’s Alice Tully Hall with renowned clarinetist/saxophonist/composer Paquito D’Rivera. The ensemble has also worked with luminaries such as bandoneonist Daniel Binelli, saxophonist Steve Coleman, clarinetist David Shifrin, and pianists Gilbert Kalish and Shai Wosner. Future collaborations include Stefon Harris and David Krakauer.

The Imani Winds have been recognized with numerous awards, including the 2007 ASCAP Award, 2002 CMA/ASCAP Award for Adventurous Programming, and the CMA/WQXR Award for their debut and self-released CD Umoja. At the 2001 Concert Artists Guild International Competition, Imani Winds was selected as the first-ever Educational Residency Ensemble, in recognition of their tremendous musical abilities and innovative programming.

The Imani Winds have three releases on Koch International Classics, including their 2006 Grammy Award nominated recording, The Classical Underground.

Artist’s Corner

Do you have a favorite past performance at the Festival?

“I really enjoyed the performance of Frankenstein by Gruber from last summer, and I got to stretch my horn skills to the limit with Esa Pekka Solonen’s Concert Etude for Horn that I performed two years ago. That by far was the most challenging piece for horn that I have ever played.”

What do you feel it is about the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival that makes it unique?

“The Festival has that Santa Fe relaxation vibe going for it; everyone is friendly, laid back and happy when they get here, and playing in the St. Francis Chapel or the Lensic is always fun. The well educated and appreciative audiences are always good to play for as well.”

William Barnewitz, horn player

Mr. Barnewitz can be heard at the Lensic on August 18 performing Beethoven’s Quintet for Winds and on August 20 performing Dvorak’s Serenade in D Minor, Op. 44. Check the season schedule at http://santafechambermusic.com for complete details on the concert programs.

FTC goes bananas: Help fight now.

This week the FTC, Federal Trade Commission the Big Brother Watching US group, made one person shut down his site because he included information on used of herbs. Now he is sueing them for denying his first amendment freddom of speech. (Bravo!)

As a writer, I believe that we need to make a stand for free speech. Please read on….

29 Healing Herbs: Some of my favorites.
This could be illegal….watch out!!!
Before I write about 29 of my favorite HEALING herbs, if you are someone who know about the FTC case against the Internet Marketer,see if his lawyer would like others to join the case to make a class action suit.

I googled healing herbs and came up with 827,000 listings. So then I googled healing herbs us sites and got about 425,000 for us sites.

The guy who got hit was actually referring to US Federal Publications, available to anyone about HEALIBG HERBS. So I ask you, why does the US government want to prevent Americans from learning about docuements that they have previously approved for publication about health and Herbs?

I won’t go into that discussion now. A couple of thousand years ago, a knowledgeable Jewish man proclaimed, “Heal Yourself!” His name was Jesus and it might be curious to see how often he told us to do that. Check the Bible.

Although he was referring to the power of the holy spirit or God to heal us, if you also check the Bible, you could probably find many references to herbs that were used for healing. Your government, if you are a US citizen, doesn’t want you to print or publish this information.

Seems like censorship to me.

So here is your list of my favorite 29 healing herbs.

1) Peppermint
2) Astragalus
3) Holy Basil
4) Golednseal
5) Oregano
6) Plaintain
7) Comfrey
Red Clover
9) Marigold
10) Onion
11) Garlic
12) Cayenne Pepper
13) Fennel
14) Ginger
15) Milk Thistle
16) Tumeric
17) Nettles
18) rooibus
19) celery seed
20) cats claw
21) calendula
22) aloe
23) Dandelion
24) oat straw
25) catnip
26) yarrow
27) chickweed
28) thyme
29) maca

Yes they are all healing herbs. Yes it would be best to consult herbalists, naturpathic doctors, some of the 425,000 websites, and books to learn more about these fairly common herbs. Most of these may be found in your backyard, or kitchen cupboard. All but a few can be found and are commonly grown in North America.

http://www.squidoo.com/healherbs

I am using this as an example. If I were to make claims about their use, suggest what they could do, or apparently publish a reference sheet from where I got this information the FTC could make a lot of threats to me, possibly levy fines, and in some states in the USA lock me up (in prison).

Please share this information, and I think if all internet marketers rallied to support freedom of speech or the guy who got shut down, we could have a real good case.

When we don’t make a stand, it’s just that much easier for us to lose what we think is ours.
29: Yep they can all be used for healing many discomforts. Add your thoughts please.

The speakers will limit their formal presentations to 15 minutes each, leaving time for contributions from the audience and lots of discussion.

These three artists, innovators and technologists pzarticipated in the grand opening of Santa Fe Complex on June 14. They will be speaking on their pieces from that show and other topics in holography tonight from 6 to 8 PM.

About the Speakers

Rebecca Deem: Rebecca first saw holograms at an art gallery in 1970 while completing an Art supervision degree. In 1988, she received the Shearwater Foundation Art Holography Award. In 1995 with partner Fred Unterseher, she co-founded Zone Holografix Studios, an art and teaching studio with a pulse laser lab. She continues to exhibit artwork, teach and write for electronic and print publications.

Fred Unterseher: Fred graduated from the San Francisco Art Institute in the early 70’s. He worked on the cooperative projects Artaud, The Emeryville Artists Coop., ANT FARM (the art/media collective famous for Cadillac Ranch). He co-founded the San Francisco School of Holography with Lloyd Cross and Gerry Pethick. He conceived and co-authored the HOLOGRAPHY HANDBOOK, A Practical Guide to Holography in 1987. He was Director of Education at the Museum of Holography, New York, New York. He was a member of the team that created the first pulsed laser portrait of a president (Ronald Reagan)in 1989. In 1995 he co-founded Holografix Studios with Rebecca Deem. He is a consultant for NASA and JPL on 3-D imaging systems and until recently taught at the Brooks Institute of Photography & Pasadena City College.

August Muth: August was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico and his early years in the vast landscape and dry climate of the high desert and mountains gave him the opportunity to develop a true appreciation for the elegance of light. After three years of studying art and physics at the university level in the southwest, August moved to New York City to pursue his studies and visions within the world of art there. In 1983, after viewing his first hologram, he realized he had discovered a direct path to a deeper understanding of the force of light. In 1984 and l985, he developed his holography skills at the Museum of Holography in N.Y.C. under the direction of Fred Untersher, a pioneer and early innovator in holography.

Since 1986, he has specialized in the field of “reflection dichromated gelatin holography”. This type of holography is unsurpassed in its clarity and superior quality. His progress in developing and refining processes and techniques in this demanding technology have allowed him to manipulate light into various beautiful and subtle forms. His most recent works include the lamination of optical glass and creation of holograms in multiple layers. He calls this current body of work “Time Capsules”, a reference to light as being the vehicle of time.

What Is Holography?

Holography (from the Greek, όλος-hòlòs whole + γραφή-grafè writing, drawing) is the science of producing holograms. It is a technique that allows the light scattered from an object to be recorded and later reconstructed so that it appears as if the object is in the same position relative to the recording medium as it was when recorded. The image changes as the position and orientation of the viewing system changes in exactly the same way is if the object were still present. Holograms can also be made using other types of waves. (See: Wikipedia.)

I did not know that some new faces and excellent candidates are running for the Senate. Even if these fine women are not from your state, spread the word, and support their campaigns. Send $1.00 a week to as much as you can now. If we can’t have a woman for President, lets fill as many seats as possible in the meantime. Somebody has to stand up for us the working person.

Guys this means you too…look at these candidates.
Dear MoveOn member, (Go to www.squidoo.com/makinart)

Health care is an issue that is really close to my heart. And I know it matters to a lot of Americans, particularly mothers. But time and again, Republicans have blocked progress on expanding health care-most recently the expansion of the children’s health insurance program-and on so many other important issues.

That’s why we need to elect more progressive women in Congress in 2008, to stand with President Obama on healthcare and other key issues.

MoveOn is working with EMILY’s List to highlight some great candidates like Kay Hagan, a legislator in my home state of North Carolina who is running for U.S. Senate. It is a race that the pundits and politicos had previously ignored, but no longer: Last week the Washington Post rated it as one of the most winnable Senate races for Democrats in the country.1

With a critical deadline for candidate fund-raising next Monday, can you help support Kay Hagan and other strong Democratic women like Jeanne Shaheen and Rep. Carol Shea-Porter from New Hampshire? All three women are running in key battleground states, and the voters they bring to the polls will also help us take the White House. Click here to chip in $25 to their campaigns today:

https://pol.moveon.org/give/3greatwomen.html?id=12976-4495224-boo_xix&t=5

EMILY’s List supports pro-choice Democratic women for office. The organization is a great ally and is supporting these and other strong progressive candidates.

Here’s more detail on each of these spectacular women:

After five terms in the North Carolina State Senate, Kay Hagan is ready to move on to the US Senate. But first, she has to beat Sen. Elizabeth Dole this fall. Hagan has led the fight for children’s healthcare in our home state. In the US Senate, Kay wants to tackle climate change and high gas prices. Her opponent, Elizabeth Dole, has a $3 million war chest, and Hagan is going to need every penny she can raise in order to beat her and change this seat from one that consistently votes conservatively to one that consistently votes progressively.

When Kay wins, we will be that much closer to building a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. And the odds are in our favor: Republicans are defending 23 seats in competitive races-almost two-thirds of the races up for grabs-which means we’ll have an edge as we attempt to build a progressive majority.

We need Jeanne Shaheen to represent New Hampshire-and all of us-in the United States Senate too. Jeanne is the former Governor of New Hampshire; in fact she was the first woman ever elected to that office. Now she wants to blaze the trail again and become the first-ever woman elected senator from the state. The only thing standing in her way is incumbent Republican senator, John Sununu. Jeanne will be a fantastic senator, but we have to get her elected first.

Finally, there is the incredible Representative Carol Shea-Porter of New Hampshire, the best example I know of the kind of women we can elect if we work together from the grassroots. When she was still in high school a counselor told Carol she should forget about trying to make it to college and enroll in secretarial school.2

Instead, she became the first woman ever elected to Congress from New Hampshire in 2006, handily beating a Republican incumbent who was seen as invincible. During her short time in Congress, Shea-Porter has been a vocal opponent to the war in Iraq. This is her first reelection campaign, and she’s in a tough race. But Carol Shea-Porter has more than earned our support-we need to keep her in Congress.

Not only can you help make sure each of these women wins in her race, but you will also be helping to turn out more votes in important presidential battleground states. Can you chip in $25 to help elect these three women, each of whom can help us lead the House and Senate in a progressive direction? Click here to donate:

https://pol.moveon.org/give/3greatwomen.html?id=12976-4495224-boo_xix&t=6

Today, out of 435 members of the U.S. House of Representatives, there are only seventy-one women. And only sixteen out of one hundred members of the Senate are women. 3 When will our voices be heard? They will be heard when we act together to get progressive women elected. With your help we can make sure that these progressive women’s voices are heard in Washington this fall, voices that will speak out against the war and for health care and other progressive priorities.

Thank you.

-Elizabeth Edwards

My intro was going to be: I’ll take the Taos Ice Cream, haven’t had any in awhile and enjoy a tall glass of water while I listen to the LIVE music. Better than just tje cool temp, and thrist quenching beverages, the music invigorates and inspires. Music quickens the blood, excites the body, and can open the mind. There’s music all over this town, and Albuquerque too. So come and listen.

Now for all of you who love to imbibe: you have terrific choices at SFBC pub and grill. Of course there’ll be times when you’d prefer the tasting room. Have a designated driver. Some of the brews do have a real kick.

Hey ya’ll! Get your summer groove on at Santa Fe’s funnest annual party!

I will keep this short tonight. Perhaps I will wake up early and write more: the garden won this morning. I’m encouraging plants to survive, especially the tomatoes and squash. The large gray thunder clouds managed to duck out somewhere else, but the radio suggest they will return starting an early monsoon season. Nothing like real rain to nuture a garden properly.

A few weeks back on a Sunday afternoon, I took a drive after brunch at Harry’s Roadhouse Restaurant on Las Vegas Highway off Old Pecos Trail and St Michaels. The goal was to do some photography. I took dirt roads that I’ve seldom visited. I found an rancch where there were horses and a place to pull off the road. This is the kind of road if you stop the next vehicle coming stops to see if you need help. Course being a gray haired type now, I might generate a little more concern. As I was trying to shoot some pics, the owener Cynthia DeCosta, drives up in her pickup and we begin to chat. She graciously encouraged me to take pictures and I invited her to say a few words about her work.

Dear Mary,

I met you several weeks ago while you were taking pictures of my horses. You mentioned you were a blogger and suggested I write you a few sentences describing what it is I do with horses. I am sorry it has taken this long to get something to you, but here it is - I am a psychotherapist now focusing my understanding of psychology on horses. Each horse, like each person, has a unique personality. When one comes to understand and respect a horse’s individual way of being, one can join in an easy and harmonious partnership with the horse and achieve excellence physically, mentally and emotionally for the horse and human alike.

Working with horses has truly changed me on so many levels and they challenge and compel me to be the best person I can be.

My pictures did not come out great, but I did meet a fine four year old who was very curious and friendly. Horses are a fine emblem of the west. Though in remote areas a few wild horses still abide, the wide open range with lots of horses has diminished greatly. Cynthia’s ranch is tucked away off the beaten path, where few might venture, although it is only minutes outside town. She does offer lessons and more. She loves her friends and keeps very busy providing them a loving home. So if you do wander into the city different and want to learn more or connect with Ms. C. DeCosta, call me or write me here, and I can arrange a connect for you. Something is not working. I can’t upload my horese pics. I’ll try again later.

Aching a bit, I returned home, stood and stred at another mess of weeds, all my own. So I did some more work, a relatively small section and watched the moon through drifting clouds, and a tall tree. Both my cats came out to visit, and once my black cat, Jasper, sitting on the stairs railing, was caught gazing at the nearly full moon. I never witnessed her do that before.

Here’s some news about music in town from SFBC. www.santafebrewingcompany.com

Also in Santa Fe there is a new play called “little Ghost” at the CCA on Old PEcos trail. It is a locally produced and written work with some strong perspectives on…read the Paseotempo for a longer story, but better yet, be bold and just go see it.

Also had a long talk with my mother tonight. Heard stories about my Dad’s last years. SOme change now years long past. What touched me most was how my 89 yr old Mom’s voice changed and softened as she shared her memories. Her long and longing for him freely lingered across the lines. These were sounds seldom heard during his time here, yet encapsuled deep feelings she not to express to me then. This Father’s day, let your emotions flow as much as Dad can take. One never knows when he won’t be near to see your loving eyes or hear them. Happy Father’s Day to all Dads!
