Put your compass point at the town crossroads and draw a circle a radius of fifteen miles. The area within that circle, containing only other tiny towns, nevertheless produced the three seminal recording figures of Irish traditional music in America in the 1930Õs. Today one would find there more than twenty traditional musicians of consummate skill, loyal to the local style and repertoire, descended from families that have been producing musicians for many generations. This is also true of many locales in all the counties on the west coast of Ireland (Vallely and Piggott 1998). What kind of people are they? What might make them important to the rest of the world? Should academics study them? Do they deserve status beside the great story and folksong persons lionized by collectors and ethnologists? How are they the same, and how are they different from these storytellers and folk singers? Some aspects of the current state of folklore research There have always been people within the worldÕs traditional communities, men and women who by virtue of their lifelong immersion in the music, song and lore of a particular geographic area, or a long history of commitment to the particular tradition, either assume or are appointed by their community as, in a sense, the ÒguardiansÓ or arbiters of the tradition. Essential for the understanding of this concept is the notion of

Extractions: Return to Home Page The following paper was first published in I didaskalia tou horou (Teaching Dance), Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Dance Research, Portaria, 7-11 July, 1993 , International Organization of Folk Arts, Athens, 1993 Charles Kyriacou Member, Board of Trustees Greek Orthodox Youth Folk Dance Festival(FDF) Diocese of San Francisco(USA) ABSTRACT: Let us first admit from the start that many people do not consider "folk dance" as a serious or even worthwhile endeavor. There are elements in modern society that consider folk dance "primitive" having been created by and for the "peasants" and not worthy of the allocation of scarce resources. Some of the reasons are that folk dance did not originate in the theatre and its purpose was not to entertain an audience but rather to serve a set of functions within a rural society of the past. Many modern urbanites seem to believe that the fact it served a rural society exempts folk dances from being able to serve them in any meaningful manner. In addition, and this is something folk dance teachers have some control over, the quality of a majority of folk dance performances compared to other theatrical dance presentations is considered by many today as substandard. In her article, "The Practice of and the Responsibility for Retention of Culture," Dr. Mary Coros observes:

Extractions: By Dick Oakes Previous Page Home Page Last updated: 11 MAR 2005 I first compiled a list of folk dance teaching references for a folk dance teacher training seminar. There were many works that I did not include (for lack of research time) and I know there have been many published since, such as Ada Dziewanowska's beautiful book on Polish dance. I am pleased to have been a contributor to Betty Casey's International Folk Dancing U.S.A. "...Dick Oakes, an all-around international folk dance instructor, helped in checking the many dance instructions and the Lexicon definitions. He devised the clever system of using a larger and smaller raised capital letter (R L ) to indicate that a step can be done with either the right or left foot; he also assisted with photo illustrations and provided the material for "Yugoslavian Folk Dancing." Happy researching!
Extractions: AFC 1982/009: BR8-GJ46-13. Like Edgar Allen Poe's purloined letter, folklife is often hidden in full view, lodged in the various ways we have of discovering and expressing who we are and how we fit into the world. Folklife is reflected in the names we bear from birth, invoking affinities with saints, ancestors, or cultural heroes. Folklife is your grandfather and great-uncles telling stories of your father when he was a boy. It is the secret languages of children, the codenames of CB operators, and the working slang of watermen and doctors. It is the sung parodies of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic," and the parables told in church or home to delight and instruct. It is African-American rhythms embedded in gospel hymns, bluegrass music, and hip hop, and it is the Lakota flutist rendering anew his people's ancient courtship songs.

The cultural lighthouse is the Reading Society I ANAPTIXI (Development) the influence of which goes far beyond the town itself. The island was still under Turkish Occupation, the Reading Society expressed the need of certain restless intellectuals for cultivation and information, through books and newspapers. Then in 1894 a night school, amateur theatre company, and choir which organised music literary nights. It was a nucleus of national uplifting and offered significant support to the Macedonian Struggle. Its activity and presence in the cultural and artistic life of Agiassos is significant up to our days. The Reading Society which is housed in a private building complex, just outside the lower entrance to the town, includes : a Library with over 20.000 volumes of old and new books on all every fields of science, a large reading room, a theatre for theatrical performances and screening of films, a folklore museum and an exhibition room with a permanent collection of paintings. The Arts department stages a large number of plays of both foreign and Greek playwrights (Infact many are from Agiassos). Since 1954 the Reading Society has staged more than 35 theatrical plays. Some of its performances have been staged in Mytilene and almost all other villages of Lesbos, in Athens, Pireus and even as far away as Australia, always with tremendous success.
