    Extractions: Ruth Laredo, piano Lou Harrison In addition to teaching and composing Lou has worked as a music critic, an animal nurse, florist, dance accompaniest, and forestry firefighter. He is also a calligraphist and poet (his poetry anthology "Joys and Perplexities" is printed in one of his original fonts), painter, and writer. In 1993, his book "Music Primer" was republished in Tokyo in both English and Japanese. Lou has helped introduce the Indonesian Gamelan to the United States and, with William Colvig, has constructed two large gamelan now in use at San Jose State University and Mills College. Among major performances of Mr. Harrison's work in 1995 are his "Suite for Cello and Harp" by the Oakland Ballet for Remy Charlip's "Ludwig and Lou", and the joyful "Parade for MTT" which opened the San Francisco Symphony season celebrating the inaguration of director Michael Tilson Thomas. The Brooklyn Philharmonic under the direction of Dennis Russell Davis, will present Lou's "New First Suite for Strings" in November. In their free time, Lou and Bill enjoy the company of friends, hosting a gamelan "club" and a sign language class. They are currently designing a straw bale house for a high desert getaway.

    Extractions: Activists are concerned that changes to Medicaid, the health insurance program for poor and disabled Americans, proposed by the White House could result in the states offering fewer services to people with AIDS. "It removes Medicaid as an entitlement that someone has a legal right to," said Charles King, co-president of Housing Works. New York Marriage While New York is home to some of the leading same-sex marriage advocates in the country, this is not a state associated with the landmark cases in the campaign to open marriage to gays and lesbians. Local leaders hope that will change within the next few months, starting on Freedom to Marry Day this Wednesday, February 12 and followed up by an action at the City Clerk's office on Valentine's Day, Friday, February 14. The Belgian House of Representatives voted 91-22-9 on January 30 to open the institution of marriage to gay and lesbian couples. A hundred gay couples were in the chamber for the vote, many holding hands. Already approved by the Senate, the new law goes into effect in four months. Belgium is only the second nation in the world, following the Netherlands, to make the move.

    Extractions: RAPUNZEL NEW ALBION in the 1930s, composer Lou Harrison and his partner John Cage were building instruments out of old brake drums and oxygen tanks, and in the process inventing a new kind of percussion music. A quarter-century before the Pacific Rim was all the rage and the word "multicultural" permeated pop culture, Harrison was successfully integrating Western and Asian music forms, writing accessible, melodic music as innovative as any in this century. Now, on the occasion of his 80th birthday (May 14), it seems the world is finally catching up with Harrison. Performers such as Keith Jarrett and Yo-Yo Ma have started playing his music, critics like the Los Angeles Times' Mark Swed have begun calling him perhaps the greatest living American composer, and he has been the subject of several recent tribute concerts in New York, London and other cities. But one phase of his creative life has been seriously overlooked and undervalued in all this celebration: the 1940s and '50s, when he left California to seek new challenges in New York. This new CD should remedy that oversight. It shows that Harrison's gifts for melody and beauty transcend any of his formal innovations they permeate everything he touches.

    Extractions: report on the vault test "Lou Harrison," in his own words, "is an old man who has had a lot of fun." He was composing music before most of us were born, and is lately being rediscovered as a grand old man of American music. After thirty years perched in fog and wind above the Pacific in Aptos, California, Lou has decided to build a desert retreat, a place to work on commissions, and a place to play. Fifty years ago, Lou wrote that "American music, like so much other American art, is almost completely the product of amateurs." The amateur is like a lover: "He loves something, gets hold of something, and takes a bite off." He adds, "I'm a grown-up kid. Art to me is play. Children get very serious about play. It's not frivolous-it's learning. If it's beautiful, that's a welcome bonus." Designing Lou's Studio with him has been fun and a delight. Besides composing music, Lou also writes poetry, paints, does calligraphy, sculpts and loves architecture. Lou has a great fondness for Middle Eastern architecture, and we decided to create a straw-bale home which featured a vaulted Great Room, for work and play, and three smaller domed rooms for living quarters. The building we envisioned would be all straw-bale and could be put together by friends and laborers without special skills or experience in construction. The building we created has strong, simple shapes and solid proportions. The long vault is flanked on one side by three rooms, and on the other by butresses which create shaded outdoor "rooms".

    http://www.charlotte.com/mld/observer/news/local/5103351.htm
    
    Extractions: APTOS, Calif. Lou Harrison, who pioneered world music and was among a line of iconoclastic 20th century American composers that included innovators such as Charles Ives and John Cage, has died at 85. Harrison had a heart attack Sunday in Lafayette, Ind., while traveling from his home in Aptos to a weeklong celebration of his music sponsored by the Columbus Symphony Orchestra and Ohio State University. Harrison pioneered world music, and was among the first to create all-percussion pieces and to integrate the musical traditions and instruments of Asia and the West. His work includes four symphonies, two operas, ballets, concertos, choral pieces, solo and chamber works. But he's best known for the works that cannot be readily categorized, particularly those intended for an international gamut of percussion instruments.

This octogenarian from California studied with Henry Cowell, worked with John Cage, and was a champion of the music of Ives. Like many from the left-coast, (as Lush Rumbaugh would say) he has always been a rebel. After much experimentation with the new music forms of the twentieth century, he rejected them and went in search of other voices and flavors. In his excellent liner notes, Ken Smith quotes from the biography Lou Harrison: Composing a World

    Extractions: ou Harrison was not able to attend the six-day festival of chamber music and orchestral works presented at the Juilliard School last week, titled "Beyond the Rockies: A Tribute to Lou Harrison at 85." Though he had long been struggling with health problems, the given reason for his absence was a previous commitment to another Harrison festival. Advertisement On Sunday evening, two days after the final concert of the Focus Festival, as Juilliard's yearly explorations of some aspect of contemporary music are called, Mr. Harrison died in Indiana en route to that other festival at Ohio State University. It must have been gratifying that such recognition was coming to him in old age. Though Mr. Harrison was a beloved West Coast composer, a genuine American maverick, a pioneer in the synthesis of Asian and Western music and a father figure to musicians in the region, he tended to be overlooked by major orchestras. He had a few powerful champions, though, notably the conductor Michael Tilson Thomas, who asked Mr. Harrison to compose a work with which to begin his inaugural concert as the music director of the San Francisco Symphony in 1995. On Friday night at the Juilliard Theater, Reinbert de Leeuw, an expert conductor of contemporary music, and the Juilliard Symphony began the final concert of the Focus Festival with a sprightly performance of that inaugural work, titled "A Parade."
