This year marks the golden anniversary of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the flagship band of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians. Formed in 1966 and flourishing until 2010, the Art Ensemble distinguished itself by its unique performance practices—members played hundreds of instruments on stage, recited poetry, performed theatrical sketches, and wore face paint, masks, lab coats, and traditional African and Asian dress. The group, which built a global audience and toured across six continents, presented their work as experimental performance art, in opposition to the jazz industry’s traditionalist aesthetics. In Message to Our Folks, Paul Steinbeck combines musical analysis and historical inquiry to give us the definitive study of the Art Ensemble. In the book, he proposes a new theory of group improvisation that explains how the band members were able to improvise together in so many different styles while also drawing on an extensive repertoire of notated compositions. Steinbeck examines the multimedia dimensions of the Art Ensemble’s performances and the ways in which their distinctive model of social relations kept the group performing together for four decades. Message to Our Folks is a striking and valuable contribution to our understanding of one of the world’s premier musical groups.

Excerpt from Our Folks and Your Folks: A Volume of Family History and Biographical Sketches; Including the Collins, Hardison, Merrill, Teague and Oak Families, and Extending Over a Period of Two Centuries Much has been written of the Pilgrims of Plymouth and the Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, but the history of another class of colonists who also had a marked influence in the founding of the towns of New England, is not so well known to many readers of New England history. These colonists could claim a remote kinship with the Pilgrims and Puritans, but were far enough removed to have moulded a new type of citizenship. They were the Scotch Irish immigrants who settled in Londonderry, N. H., and who were the founders of Presbyterianism in New England. The name "Londonderry" was a combination of the ancient monastry of Derry and London, the capital of England. Unlike the Pilgrims and the Puritans, although a God-fearing people, they did not come here because of a desire for religious liberty, but to improve their conditions in life. The name of "Scotch Irish" was first given in the seventh century to pioneers from Ireland who had established themselves on the western coast of Scotland, then called Caledonia. Scottish clans, the Picts from the highlands and the Saxons of the lowlands, united to drive them from their shores, but in vain. For over six hundred years this struggle went on, and during this period the Picts were converted to the religion of their foes and then a graver peril threatened their liberties.
