The Singing Revolution
Well it's a Great Powerful movie.. . shows how a downtrodden colonized people stood up to a foreign conquerer and after a long struggle won their freedom. They did this by appealing to their own cultural heritage surrounding their yearly choral singing festival... by doing things this way they manage to unify people who when using ordinary political language were on different sides and of different opinions concerning problems, tactics, strategies and means of achieving the objective. The Estonians have a 5000 year old culture and it's by appealing to these ancient roots that they managed to accomplish their objective. I don't know if this same strategy will work here (u.s. and utah) as Americans and Mormons are much more diverse culturally than are the Estonians. If I were to try to create something around which to build such a movement I would start with the Drum and then add the flute.. these are the two most ancient musical instruments that are common to our cultural diversity. Then I would bring in voice in the form of chanting in unison gradually expanding into the many voices gradually coalescing around a common theme. It took the Estonians 70 years to break free from Soviet Domination using the choral singing method but in the end they were triumphant. http://www.singingrevolution.com/ Ra |
