Extractions: Breaking the Great Wall When discussing musicians and composers of Chinese descent in America, there are really four heritage streams to consider: Chinese-Americans, mainland Chinese, Taiwan Chinese, and Hong Kong Chinese. These four lineages inform the topics and sounds which the following musicians grapple with. The educational credits, academic teaching positions, awards and accolades, and public performances listed in the biographies of these musicians also attests to the ways in which the new music world is in some ways devoid of national borders. It may make the answer as to who is an American composer all the more difficult to answer, but no one can dispute the fact that composers of Chinese heritage are honing the cutting edge of America's new music scene with some exceptionally vibrant, emotive, exciting and heady music. Make no doubt about it, Byron Au Yong, Fred Ho Jason Kao Hwang and Jon Jang are all Americans. Yong is a second generation American whose parents lived in the Phillippines before coming to the U.S. He has studied with European, American and Asian teachers and embraces a pan-Asian approach to making music combined with Western concepts. His pieces have been performed in the U.S. and Germany. Ho is a saxophonist, bandleader, composer and leftist activist who seems to have embraced the exuberance of African-American musical expression in addition to exploring Chinese-American and Chinese culture and history. Violinist and composer Jason Hwang seems to know no musical limits, having his feet in film soundtracks (

Extractions: Microform collections ... Back to Homepage General statement Edinburgh University Library has been acquiring books on North America since the early 17th century, and these early items are now held as part of the Early Printed and Special Collections. Because the modern collections on Canada and USA are intershelved with the Library's other general subject collections, it is difficult to estimate their extent in numerical terms. The Library, however, is unlikely to have fewer than 10,000 separate items on North America in its post-1900 collections, and quite probably more. Subjects covered include history, geography and ecology, emigration, travel and exploration, politics and economics, law, religions, anthropology, literature, the fine arts and music. Some of these are held outwith the Main Library. Modern printed collections Focused interest in the United States is older than in Canada, but the spread of subjects is similar; a greater emphasis is placed on American than on Canadian foreign policy. The Library has significant holdings of printed editions of Presidential and other personal papers, including those of John Adams, John C. Calhoun, Henry Clay, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Benjamin Franklin, William A. Graham, Ulysses S. Grant, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Johnson, William Johnson, H. Laurens, James Madison, G. Mason, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. Holdings on slavery, Afro-Americans, and the Black Diaspora are good, and include a number of Afro-American newspapers and journals in microform (see below)

The company was founded two years ago to provide electronic home-banking and bill-paying services and now serves some 90 financial institutions. Schellhorn joins Visa Interactive from International Verifact, Inc., in Denver, where he was vice president and general manager. At the Simon School, Kevin Pickhardt '90S (MBA) received this year's Alumni Service Award. Of nearly 500 alumni who volunteer actively for the school, he's been extraordinarily generous with his time and energy, says Deborah Howe '91 (Mas), assistant director of alumni relations and development. Pickhardt chaired the committee that planned and marketed the school's Alumni Weekend in October, and over the past year "really put a tremendous amount of time and effort into the job," according to Howe. Pickhardt is a general manager for Xerox Business Services. Stephen Rustow '70 has recently moved back to New York City from Paris, he had spent some 10 years overseeing I. M.

Extractions: AgeVenture News Service Since his phenomenally successful debut recording in 1995, a self-produced live album that was released on a small, independent Brazilian label, César has been recognized as one of the most gifted composers and lyricists in Brazil. The Putumayo Artists release, Chico Cesar (photo), includes selections from Césars groundbreaking studio albums and serves as perfect introduction to the music of this stunning new world music star. While Chico now lives in the southern metropolis of São Paulo, Brazils largest city, he hails from the small city of Cartolé do Rocha (population 12,000) in Paraîba, a state in the Northeast. It is a region that is rich in culture but poor in resources, and poverty and low life expectancies are the rule. The dusty streets of Chicos hometown were sources for both joy and sorrow giving rise to the deep sentiments and sparkling pleasures of his compositions. Born to a poor, farm worker father and a washerwoman mother, Chico is clearly gifted. At three years old, he had learned to read. By twelve, without knowing a single musical note, he composed his first song. "I was just a kid, 8 years old, when I started working at a record store. At the same time, my aunt got me a scholarship at a school founded by nuns. At age 10, we had a band with instruments my friends and I invented ourselves. At age 14, I formed another music group, and with our own songs we crossed my native state singing in music festivals. At 16, I moved to the state capital, and soon after dedicated myself to music only, touring Brazil, Japan, and Europe."
