Extractions: My sermon title is taken from a sermon collection by Martin Luther King, Jr., and speaks to the uncertain times in which we find ourselves. By the time you read this, the United States may already have gone to war in Iraq. I continue to hope that war can be avoided, but if it cannot, I pray that we can still find the strength to love each other whatever our views on such a war may be. Perhaps most important, I hope that we can find the strength to love even those who are strangers to us and who may be perceived to be our enemies. The biblical witness of our religious heritage is clear, if difficult: we are called to care for the strangers among us, and even to love our enemies. Somewhere and sometime, the cycle of violence must be ended, for as Gandhi said, "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind."

Choreographed and co-directed by Bill James , the work incorporates stunning underwater images by filmmaker Nick de Pencier alongside rare footage from Venus of the South Seas (1924). Artist Evlyn von Michalofski 's fantastical costumes of metal, plastic tubing and industrial felt transform the three women into high-tech mermaids, while Paul Mathiesen 's lighting structure evokes the high-diving aquarium of Kellerman's vaudeville routines. "an entrancing gloss on water-musics past and present ...Sleek and focussed, its references to romantic piano repertoire were clear but unparochial - a rippling polyphony of scales that mimicked the subtle geometry of light and movement on a pond, a repeated pitch treading minimalist waters as a phrase of Chopin lapped against it, a high G sharp struck like a hammer on an anvilas the simple harmonies beneath it mutated."

Extractions: "It was like riding a fire engine around a corner at 90 miles an houryou're just hanging on by the tips of your fingers". That was how drummer Billy Graham described playing with Charlie Parker to writer Mark Miller. That meeting occurred 50 years ago, on Saturday afternoon, February 7, 1953 at the Chez Paree on Stanley Street here in Montreal. At that Jazz Workshop concert, Graham joined Americans, guitarist Dick Garcia and pianist Valdo Williams (who was living here and playing at Rockhead's) and Hal Gaylor, a local bassist, who went on to the US to play with the likes of Paul Bley, Chico Hamilton, Tony Bennett and in trio co-op with Billy Bean and Walter Norris. On the fifth set of the afternoon they backed Charlie Parker on "Ornithology" and "Cool Blues" and stayed on for a rendition of "I'll Remember April" after "Bird" left the stage. For a man of his large talent, Billy Graham left relatively few recordings, the Parker and Canadian All Star items already mentioned and CBC transcriptions with Fleming, Lacombe and Armas (Art) Maiste and (in the early 60s) three NFB soundtracks, "Of Sport and Men", "Runner" and "Ski" done with musicians like Baculis, Freddie Nichols, Jackson Rider, John Lanza, Maiste, Don Douglas, Herbie Spanier, Jack Shtyka, Nick Ayoub and Gerry Danovitchperhaps more material will emerge in time to be included on a 2CD retrospective of Gordie Fleming's careerone being compiled by Gordie's daughter Heidi and scheduled for release on Justin Time in 2004.
