Trio Webster: Toshi Ichiyanagi’s Fusion of Western and Eastern Music
No full textThis document contains a synopsis of Toshi Ichiyanagi’s compositional style, a discussion of his musical philosophy, and an analysis of Trio Webster. Ichiyanagi is a renowned Japanese composer who studied in New York under John Cage’s mentorship. He is also the first composer to introduce Cage’s concept of chance operation to Japanese society. Trio Webster realizes the true exchange of Western and Eastern cultures, and it is accomplished because of Ichiyanagi’s unique
experience and philosophy as an international composer. The concept of Japanese classical music and Japanese aesthetics are observed in Trio Webster which is the basis for the depth of the work. Eastern concepts, especially Japanese, can be ambiguous and may be difficult for Westerners to fully appreciate. This study shows the cosmos beyond the practical analysis of Trio Webster and is meant to serve as a guide for those who will perform the works of Ichiyanagi, especially Trio Webster, in the future. This study was facilitated through research and interviews with Ichiyanagi and members of the Webster Trio. Ichiyanagi’s interview is included as an appendix to this document
Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

Three views of vera
1886 bell will tell
the '' joyfu I story''
By Joe P. Rhinehart
"As the wagon neared Webster,"
remarked J. W. Cowan
many years ago, "rounding the
turn at the oak grove, the men
began to ring the bell, continuing
to do so until the church at
River Hill was reached."
A bell had been ordered, it
had arrived by railroad in Asheville
from down East, and the
Webster men had taken a
wagon pulled by a team of
horses to the station to bring it
the last fifty miles to the belfry
of the church, the converted
school house on River Hill.
Thirty two years after the
founding of the Webster Baptist
Church, the members could
outwardly make a " joyful
noise."
That bell now hangs in the
"new" Webster church and
since that December day in 1886
it has been a constant reminder
to Webster people that the Baptist
church has kept the faith
and continues to make its joy-full
noise.
And on a July Sunday this
summer the members of the
Webster Baptist Church will
celebrate its one hundred twenty
fifth a nniversary, for it was
on December 30, 1854, that 14
men and women met in the new
ly constructed Jackson County
courthouse to organize a new
church. These 14 had been
members of Old Savannah Baptist
Church and the church was
a rough three or four miles from
their homes near the just established
county seat town of Webster.
The founders of the church
were among the people who had
come into almost wilderness
years earlier and had recently
seen the new county founded
and its seat established on a hill
high above the Tuckaseegee
River. This town-to-be needed
its own church. These

times we hiked across King's
Mountain. Usually we saw the

told us raisins gave us s trength .
so we bought a box of r a isins to

As we grew older there was
another pleasure that we erijoyed.
It was going across the
river to the Baptist Church to
Baptist Young People's Union
on Sunday evenings. After the
program the boys and girls
walked up the road home. Some
of us pai red off, but mostly we
walked in a group, telling jokes,
laughing, and talking.
Growing up in Webster for a
boy was great fun.
