"Yeehaw! That's what I'm talking about!
I wasn't really aware of the LOC resource before the class. This list of resources makes it even better. Thank you for taking the time. gp"
"2:05 PM - Modern Age
My only regret here was the fact we didn’t have more time to spend dancing. One of the most interesting thoughts I had here was in comparing audio media with how we use, interact with, and exchange music with one another. The…"
"1:39 PM - WWII/50’s/60’s/Nuclear Age
This is a time period that I need to spend more time on; the transformation of our music and culture from the second World War to the 70's. With the country expanding its population exponentially, the…"

"3:51 PM - Negro Spirituals / Civil War
A unique perspective on the spiritual side of the spiritual. Differences in perspective particularly impressed me here in this section. If we can strive to not only tolerate, but to seek out alternative points…"
"My name is Geep Baranow. One year to go until I qualify for retirement!!~ Really? I teach music in Eagle River and am lucky enough to teach less than a mile from my childhood home. The cultural and cross-discipline connections I hope to make in…"
"Movement and dance were/are a great uniter. It gave people the vehicle (and perhaps more importantly, permission) to explore new acquaintances/relationships and establish a new societal identity. This type of music (reels and jigs - “Willow Tree” )…"
