Gillian Lander's Homepages

(MEDICAL STUFF on sundries.)

The informal content of the Homepage has now shifted to Sundries and this homepage is more of a hub, with short term publicity for events. Overall the website contains a serious online art gallery, musicological essays done for Honours at Auckland University, family history, stray opinions, wild places, books, ideas, wit and stupidity - a miscellany of things I seem to get involved in.

I've reconsidered !

I am now NOT on facebook (why?) - too unreliable, complex and insecure. But more importantly, from there found my way on to www.academia.edu - I've forgotten how, but its a wonderful new cyberspace place for scholarship, created by a young guy in Oxford for alumni, faculty, post-graduates, and independent researchers from all over the world in a wealth of subjects. Even Stephen Hawking is there! Made some great connections already

THIS SERMON IS BRILLIANT - Got to be shared !

I haven't often heard a 'sermon' that I think worth sharing, but here is one - full of beauty and wisdom.  It was preached in an inclusive spiritual community in the USA.   The preacher is Rabbi Chava Bahle who  lives near Traverse City, and travels the country to inspire people of all faiths. She is an ordained rabbi in Jewish Renewal and an ordained Maggid, a Jewish inspirational preacher and story teller. Rabbi Chava also teaches at Northwestern Michigan College in the Extended Education programme. I am sure, once you have heard it, that you will think it 25 minutes well spent. H E R E

A transcription of the St David's Office 'Three Welsh Chants', the probable earliest monuments of Welsh music, is now on the Music page. HERE The Dissertation they are contained in has earned me First Class Honours in musicology. It can be read as a PDF from My Music page above as well.

The dissertation has been requested for Prof. Dr William Renwick's international project on the Sarum Office that he is managing. HERE

A modest progress update on the Amersfoort Antiphonal MMus thesis is running on my sundries page - (above).

'Ambrosia' has recorded a DVD of the main one for the Auckland University MEDEMS 2011 Conference 16-17 April. We have now loaded it on YouTube - thus:
Welsh Responsory: Sciens quod v. Loca solitaria (Soloists Linda Beamer and Graeme Dykes. ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd9ng44iy5I

And a copy of it all goes to St David's Cathedral library.
