The Sherman & Tingle Show - WDRV-FM Chicago

Dear Rebecca & Burns,I heard the dilemma about the girl who wasn't asked to be a bridesmaid, and I have wedding dilemma of my own. My fiancé's brother is an addict and I don't want him at our wedding. He has stolen from my fiancé and his parents, spent time in jail, and pretty much derailed his life. If he is in the wedding, he'll ruin it like he ruins everything.What should I do? My fiancé thinks it will be different this time.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk. I’m your host, Diane Wyzga.Today we have a special bonus episode because the boys are back in town. My guest is Steve Schuch joining us from Hancock, New Hampshire. Steve is a former Peace Corps volunteer, Audubon naturalist, award-winning recording artist and author, composer, musician, and the recipient of the Parent’s Choice Gold Award for his CD Trees of Life. You’ve heard his music on NPR and PBS. But mostly I’ve known Steve as my brother-in-law. I’ve invited him here to share with us a most wonderful story about how musing on Martin Luther King, Jr. and America the Beautiful traveled all its musical way to becoming a new America the Dream. What makes this such a neat story? Let’s hear how all this came to be. Welcome to the podcast, Steve!Minutes: 37:010:00 to 2:22 IntroStart From Where You Are.Minute 2:22 to 6:34  Steve as Musician Back Story On your website you have a darling quote by a 3rd grader who wrote: "I really likt your songs and storeys. What do you do for a liveing?" -Barry, 3rd grade. My listeners have heard 2 of your compositions: Mer’s Waltz that underscores my daily 60 Seconds podcast, and Entering Erdenheim which introduces and closes my guest interviews. How did music catch your attention?Grew up surrounded by music as a childMom and dad played piano; crawled under it to listenCarried his dad’s tiny reel-to-reel tape recorder to concertsStarted violin at age 7 because it was the instrument was available in 3rd gradeMusic has always been thereLoved it when folks were singingIn Oberlin College Junior year went to Pete Seeger concert: the whole crowd was in 4-part harmony!Bought folk guitar and then taught at Seeger’s Summer Camp in VermontMusic just keeps expanding - whether classical, folk, Broadway, NashvillePlayed with Pete Seeger and worked on the Clearwater; Seeger was  huge influence on Steve’s workThe power of people singing together and what they can doMusic is a primitive language - predates spoken language -Alzheimer’s patients will still sing songs from childhoodMusic enters very deep place in usWhen we combine music with messages it deepensMinute 6:34 to 11:46  Symphony of WhalesWhat informed Steve's work: Dominican Republic, classic & folk, music of Ireland, whale calls - all music being the uniting element in the worldMusic and roots - listen closelyThe New York Times wrote, "There is great dignity in the simple words, which communicate the author's respect for what he can't explain." After listening to your music for a bit what was the NYTimes trying to express about the book,  Symphony of WhalesSymphony of Whales (national award-winning) true story: 3,000 whales  trapped in Straits in Siberia - released by ice breaker playing classical musicAt some point words failThe story is about risking the ship and crew to rescue 3,000 whales (1/10th of the world's population)Music helps us to express what words cannotMassive ice breaker ship cut ice but how to get the whales to move along - to follow this massive ice breaker to open water?Whale songs didn’t work, nor did Russian Rock & Roll, nor folk musicClassical music was enough to get the whales to follow the ship to seaMusic as a universal language - for all kingdomsComplexity of songs in the songbird kingdom that we can’t hear with the naked earHow It All BeganMinute 11:46 to 15:55 From Small Town Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration to Music Mission I understand that you and (your wife, my sister) Marilyn were at a local New Hampshire town gathering in January of 2019 celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr’s birthday and you had this idea......tell us more about that:As a member of the Event Planning Committee Steve suggested: What if we had an anthem everyone could sing together? What if we could weave together “America the Beautiful” with Dr. King’s dream for all America?What if we were to take opening lines of America the Beautiful, create a chorus, create new verses that reflected Martin Luther King Jr.'s Dream and invite everyone to sing?Closing out the New Hampshire town event all the people were singingThe sound that day of children’s voices, together with parents and grandparents, was incredibly uplifting. And so this project was born.Led to quite a project in the Year of COVIDWhat was intriguing about the Martin Luther King , Jr. language?“I Have a Dream!” speech is still relevant, beautiful language, older language, reminiscent of Abraham Lincoln, King JamesThe language is accessibleBeautiful ideals of brotherhood/sisterhood, children growing up together that might not have been possible in 1960sMartin Luther King, Jr. speech is a dream of what America CAN be. America the Beautiful is also a dream; not just what we’ve achieved but the dream of democracy we’re still working onPeople risk their lives to come here, have a better lifeWe’ve not yet achieved all we're capable of yet but our dream is still thereIt was almost a natural to pair MLK's dream with America the BeautifulMinute 15:55 to 19:36  Katherine Lee Bates and America the BeautifulFor those who may not know, 130 years ago Katherine Lee Bates wrote a poem which came to be known as America the Beautiful. Would you tell us more about that and how it came to be our unofficial anthemBates was professor at Wellesley College - one of the first female professors  in the country at a time when such achievement was unusual for a womanTeaching in ColoradoWonderful poetWagon train to top of Pike’s Peak; Bates began jotting lines in her scribbler: called the poem “America”Had no idea what would become of it; as it turned out: good happenstance“Good happenstance happens to those who write frequently than for those who write rarely.”Steve’s hope is to encourage the singing of this song, and others like it, all across this land to unite us.At a time when our country feels increasingly fractured, songs like this can help bring us together. They remind us of all we share in common: the promise of an America that is more than any of us aloneWhat kept you moving forward with this work as it morphed from project to mission?People hearing the early version asked how comes it’s not being sung everywhere?Considered: set up new website with free sheet music? Music videos? More history?Actually, what would make more sense is a series of arrangements for different singing groups: children’s choir, church choir, college choir, country western singerResult: much of the COVID year was spent composing the many arrangements which are free and downloadable on the America the Dream websiteMinute 19:36 to 21:00  America the Dream  - The EvolutionThe evolution of the poem which had been set to music and in time becoming our unofficial national anthem - America the Beautiful  - partnered with Martin Luther King, Jr.’s "I Have a Dream!" speechLet’s hear and talk about some of the arrangements our listener will discover on the America the Dream website: Minute 21:00 to 26:05  America the Dream Arrangement IIITell us about what we just heard and why this is not another rehash America the BeautifulIn this version you are hearing entirely new sections that Steve composed, sung by wonderful women’s voices with piano accompanimentArrangement III is not too difficultThe entire choir could be on melody if desired; or the choice for 2-part harmony if choir wishesThe piano is interesting in that it has an intro “Every mountainside let freedom ring for the hope unseen, the long awaited dream.”  From the outset the song references the dream, hope, aspiration of Martin Luther King, Jr. and probably Katherine Lee BatesThe listener will get a surprise about the melody and take it different placesArrangement III is not complicated but musically satisfyingThe hope is that any choir conductor, and music director could listen to all 6 arrangements on the website and find the version that’s suitable for their group, venue, etc.Another website resource: downloadable MP3 with piano accompaniment if your group doesn’t have a piano for rehearsal or performanceAnother website resource: download rehearsal exampleWebsite designed to be user-friendly for everyoneMinute 26:05 to 28:00  How these voice were brought togetherRemarkable and miraculous project!As project getting underway, creating website, making sheet music available and at a time when COVID prevents the gathering of live choirs.Steve heard a virtual choir music video by Boston Conservatory at Berklee student Shelbie Rassler who was then a senior with some 70 of her student colleagues What the World Needs NowSome 2 million people saw and listened and Steve decided "I need this person!"People want to see faces and hear actual voicesSteve asked Shelbie about working together with some of her peersThey began the work on music videos summer 2020 and finished up fall 2020Everything is available for free on the websiteNOTE: These scores are free for non-commercial use.

What does that mean for people who haven’t been the website yet?Here we are, at the end of the road but not the journey.

He began playing professionally while still in high school. Later at Oberlin College he continued studying both music and biology. There he started listening to different kinds of music beyond just classical, picked up his first used $25 guitar, and began writing his first songs.After college Steve spent two and a half years as a Peace Corps volunteer, planting trees with farmers in the mountains of the Dominican Republic. There he listened to the different melodies and rhythms and began writing more of his own music. Many evenings, a guitar would be passed around a room full of people. By lantern light, young and old alike shared music and stories over cups of ginger root tea and home grown coffee.Since returning to the United States in 1984, Steve and his music have embraced both the classical and folk realms. Haunting violin and whale calls... music and tales of Ireland... a pizzicato interpretation of a Picasso painting... these are just part of Steve's wide-ranging repertoire. Many of his pieces have been featured on National Public Radio and PBS.For four years Steve taught a graduate course on integrating music and storytelling into classroom curriculum. A former Audubon naturalist, Steve lives on a farm with his wife and various creatures. Personal interests include white water canoeing, Mexican food, and relating to large reptiles.Honors include composer awards, Artist Fellowship Awards, and five fiddling championships. Steve's recordings with The Night Heron Consort are national bestsellers on the North Star label. His latest book, A Symphony of Whales, has received five national book awards. His latest CD, Trees of Life, has received a Parent's Choice Gold Award."Schuch conveys awe with an economy of language that approaches poetry." ~ The Boston Sunday Globe"Riveting Indeed." ~ The Smithsonian"There is great dignity in the simple words, which communicate the author's respect for what he can't explain." ~ -The New York Times"Warmth and storytelling magic." ~  Los Angeles TimesAbout Steve's Composing and Playing"Exceptionally fine... Schuch brings as much intelligence and skill to folk music as he does to classical." ~  The Boston Globe"Downright exhilarating. Here's a player who doesn't recite music, he paints it." ~ he Lowell Sun"I really likt your songs and storeys.

Tuesday, December 26, 2017. Blog #29--Lollipop Leadership--You can do it too...everyday! Education Leadership and Beyond: Surviving & Thriving with Andrew Marotta Podcast #29 - aired Saturday 12/23/17. 9am live or on the app anytime country 107.7 WDLC, 106.9 WYNC, Wall Radio, and Pocono 96.7. Lollipop Leadership Dew Dudley, the Founder of Day One Leadership tells a great story about Lollipop Leadership in his Tedtalk called Lollipop Leadership. He shares about the time when as the director of leadership at a small university in Canada he gave a lollipop to the young man standing next to a beautiful young lady on line at registration. The embarrassed young man then handed the lollipop to the girl which then prompted Drew to boisterously said to the girl's parents and surrounding new students: "Already...One day at college and she's taking candy from strangers!!!!" What Drew did not know at the time that this young lady was petrified being at the college...she did not want to be there and was ready to pack it in right then and there...This small act of kindness...this lil' joke...this minor outreach from Drew Dudley changed the whole experience for this girl...It broke her fear and she released a tension that she thought might never go away. She wound up dating this young man throughout college, and a year and a half later, they invited Drew Dudley to their wedding. What a great story! Thanks Drew for sharing....So, on the eve of Christmas where people are rushing to get those last minute gifts, how about giving the gift of lollipop leadership to others--A small outreach of kindness...An act of graciousness towards others. A gesture to make another feel more comfortable of confident. We all have it in us, we just have to make it a priority to do it. My guest this week on the podcast, Ed Leadership & Beyond, is Ron Bentley. Ron is a husband, father, a Police Officer in New Canaan, CT, and my brother in law!!!!
