ICTM Presentation Proposal Accepted. I just received confirmation that my proposal to present the research I conducted during the writing of my MA thesis has been accepted by the selection committee of the International Council of Traditional Music World Conference, which will be held in Sheffield, England in August 2005. I'll be seeking a travel grant from our campus' Research Council to assist in paying for this trip. |

Musicians As Terrorists? A few weeks ago a plane carrying British/Muslim singer Yusuf Islam (formerly known as Cat Stevens) was diverted, and he was refused entry into the U.S. Yesterday, Irish singer Christy Moore was detained by British authorities and questioned regarding, among other things, the lyrics in some of this songs. No explanation was given to him as to why he was detained. What next, interrogation of Hawaiian performers whose songs advocate Hawaiian sovereignty? Frightening. |
