joe daurril's youtube management page 1

These two pages, technically known as a “shell,” serve to reorganize my uploads and playlists according to the intent of their original construction. It seems the content of my uploads over the last several months fall into two large categories, which both for my convenience and your comfort need to be presented on separate pages. The first of these, presented here, treats of my “consumer” oriented efforts in the areas of liturgical music and pop music done in a Christian style – generally from the time period around 1990. The next page offers viewers some insight into the political infighting simultaneously in progress at the Public Access station in Tampa.

Folk particularly interested in the 9^th annual Bach Birthday Bash may click here. It may be noted that occasionally YouTube does not bring up the program advertised by its calling icon, Either for that reason, or simply because you may prefer it, calling needs to be done thru its PlayList object. On this page that access is obtained via COA, FCF, MM, Fiddler, and OK. Also, while page 2 in this set offers comment from a perspective internal to the Access establishment, the “floating” bottom section (“Distribution and Reception”) on this page recalls my continuing struggle wih the Tampa hegemony, both political and institutionally religious, to advertise my work at all.

Any of those clips shown here for which I hold copyright (marked by a “©”) are also available in the context of their original (usually) 2-hour productions. Copies will be manufactured for a nominal charge per your inquiry to jdaurril@juno.com, and delivered FOB downtown Tampa. You do have the opportunity to record them off the air when cablecast: they will NOT otherwise be legally available from either TBCN or your local Cable Operator.

Family Christmas Festival 1990 ©

Choirs of Advent 1987 ©

From its annual Family Christmas Festival, the University of Tampa at Sacred Heart Church 1990, where (at the time) David Clark Isele was also the Director of the Church’s choir. 2008’s program has also been consigned to cablecast (see below).

Anthems from Town'n Country's Ecumenical Christmas Carole Service in 1987. The musicians and congregations of 5 Christian denominations participated: Methodist, Lutheran, Episcopalian, Reformed, and Catholic. Incarnation Church in Tampa hosted the event, and video coverage was provided by volunteers from the local Public Access Center.

I might also recommend a glance at a pair of singles from two of my one-hour production from this time period. One is a rendition of Marty Haugen’s Mass of Creation, from Tapp’s First Last © (in 1989). The other music pertains to James Lyke’s (OFM, PhD) appearance © here in Tampa shortly before his death a few years later while serving as Atlanta’s 4^th Archbishop, described below.

“My taping of Seminole Presbyterian's High Tops in 1991 earned a fist-place award for Best Youth Single: I was that year also a finalist in two other GCA categories.  In fact throughout my Access tenure I was fortunate to be at least a finalist in any category I entered, in any year I choose to do so.  I proceeded to tape Semonole’s annual musicals for another three years, literally videocasting 1995’s graduating class thru their entire performing history. That included Music Man, Fiddler on the Roof, and Oklahoma.” (from the video productions section of my CV) Information about the Upper School’s Spring Music programs (and more) is available from its current administration at the Cambridge Christian School (in Tampa). Sadly, I seem to have entirely missed 2009’s Annie Get Your Gun.

Music Man 1992 ©

Fiddler on the Roof 1993 ©

Opened on December 19, 1957, at the Majestic Theatre. “It took Willson some eight years and thirty revisions to complete the musical, for which he wrote more than forty songs. The cast recording of The Music Man won the very first Grammy Award for Best Original Cast Album (Broadway or TV) ever issued.” See his bio and the analysis of Music at Wiki.

“The original Broadway production opened on September 22, 1964 at the Imperial Theatre, transferred in 1967 to the Majestic Theatre and in 1970 to The Broadway Theatre, and ran for a record-setting total of 3,242 performances.” Selections here are preceded by two introductions, and continue thru most of Act 2. (See also Wiki.)

Oklahoma! 1994 ©

HiTops 1991 ©

The original Broadway production opened on March 31, 1943. It was a box-office smash and ran for a then unprecedented 2,212 performances, later enjoying award-winning revivals, national tours and an Academy Award-winning 1955 film adaptation.

11 June 2008: the latest poop from TBCN on this year’s Bach Bash. We will talk about program playback in a moment – but first we might recall that Mary Garaci’s production approach to her work this year generally defies conventional understanding. If she had committed TBCN’s one and only remote production vehicle (which houses its own electrical supply unit) to the Bash, we might know why she could locate at only one of the three downtown churches serially celebrating this event. Using instead portable equipment that sets up on a card table, we must wonder why there were not enough of these (plus cameras) to go around. Then it turns out that because of either equipment grounding or power problems, only about half of St Andrew’s contribution was actually captured.

And now three months after the event, even if we were in possession of some nefarious guide to to its cablecasting – notably at last at TBCN by navigating Watch Us – we could not at first glance find our program. Probably because she is short on contract fulfillment, the perhaps sorry residue of this memorable stand-alone event has been effectively buried in her Culture Vultures series. Under that title therefore we may hope to see our program according to the schedule posted above. Before leaving this topic, I must remind you that all scheduling at TBCN is extremely tentative: we are always therefore advised to check with their Master Control, at (813) 254-1687, before planning any viewing.

18 June 2008: Reviewing the first cablecast. Hardly what you would call "commercial-free," Mary's 37-minute finished work does provide us with about 15 minutes of remarkable music. For the encouragement of those who have not yet seen it, I have uploaded a 2-minute sample featuring Dr Ondras' violin solo. He is also represented both as a conductor as well as soloist in my December program, FCF 2008.

The St Andrew’s segment of Tampa’s downtown Bach Fest (in 2006). The performance indicated below is taken from the 7^th installment in that series. As recorded, it is a production of TBCN (which came into existence in the year 2000) and it’s Outreach Unit under Garaci. The stills to the left suggest the only visual activity we might see in the first several choral pieces: only the six minutes represented in the rightmost panel contain any visual activity, which is therefore accessible via the icon.

Distribution and Reception

It may interest the casual visitor to this site to know, that as of the Ides of May 2008 not a single person involved in any of the productions presented above appears to have made any effort to communicate with me – favorably or otherwise. Except for the hit-counts provided by YouTube, I would have no idea that anyone in this universe had seen any of the now more that eighty clips posted there this year.

I am especially disappointed by the poor reception my work has lately received from the good Presbyterians on Habana Street, now doing business as Cambridge Christian School. Offering to try to set up a video-taping of this year’s Spring Musical, my offer was rejected, ostensibly because they had already made other arrangements. But attending their April 26^th production of Hello Dolly!, those “arrangements” turned out to be a solitary parishioner with a consumer-level camcorder d/b/a Tim Taylor Productions. I frankly don’t think their preferred coverage was any fraction as good as the free service their administration chose in the early ‘90’s: particularly sad because this year’s program (and especially Jimenez and Eicholtz performances) was among the best I’ve seen there. Perhaps it is these Christians’ policy that other Christians in the community should not enjoy their students’ work: perhaps they might explain that inhibition to the tuition-paying parents.

While it would be nice to hear from anyone at Holy Family with regard to their pastor’s appearance here, we may be content to notice that the world in general seems to have registered some decent notice of his Mass of Creation. The map on the right locates its recent admirers: Florida in black represents the majority of John’s current 1758 accesses – placing Fr John’s liturgy second only to Vera-Ellen’s Mandy (now exceeding 4400 viewings).

Parish folk may remember that the 1-hour 1989 program containing this Eucharistic segment was aired as Tapp Revisited ©, according to the corrected schedule at the left..

We may recall that Access’ earlier attempt to bring us Father John’s program failed after 15 minutes for an apparent lack of sound. Post-morteming the situation revealed that all that mpg’s audio was on channel two, and Access is currently designed to play only from audio channel one. Now corrected to play on both channels, Sunday’s cablecast should be acceptable. The Tapp Homily is now also available on-line. We might also notice that in order to receive Access’ programming via Bright House (BHN channels 949 + 950), one needs to at least have their Converter Box, which rents for an extra $1/month.

A new trailer remembering James Lyke is also available. Its associated 1-hour 1989 program celebrates James’ visit to the Tampa Bay area while still the Auxiliary Bishop for Cleveland. He would leave here to become the fourth Archbishop of Atlanta, thereby then the highest ranking Black prelate in the United States. A year after assuming office he would be diagnosed with cancer, spending some part of his last year planning his own funeral according to liturgy particularly appropriate to Black Catholic celebrations.

Of my several current TBCN projects, as of 13-Dec-2008 I am principally engaged in sheparding my 2008 version of Sacred Heart’s 22^nd annual Family Christmas Festival © to completion and cablecast. Originally proposed as an Apple-enhanced remake of my 1990 version with just a few 2008 parts, I find I cannot bring all that together by the project’s due date (effectively today), yielding content therefore only from the latter. As the third time out with TBCN’s Canon GL-2, I find my control of the instrument much improved since the PB program described below. My only developmental difficulty comes from the incredible level of noise and distraction tolerated and mounted perhaps for my benefit at Access’ Edit facility. As the Center closes tonight for a 3-week holiday, I had in the meantime posted some clips to encourage public interest and comment, the latter of which will be gratefully received at jdaurril@juno.com.

Viewers unfamiliar with the dismal reception of my 1990 program by “Education” and TBCN (Public Access Now) might not fathom my delight in publishing this 2008 addendum. Louise Thompson’s 2001 bid to destroy Access (“as she found it”) apparently included the wholesale rejection of any representation of my particular venue – certainly TBCN operations have never bothered on their own initiative to reproduce it. A few years ago Ann Flynn’s “Education” channel mimicked Thompson’s contempt by refusing to air 1990, even though both the talent and the locale are associated with TEC’s corporate sponsors. Blessed as we all are by Louise’s USF-bought cultural vision, is it any wonder that at the very moment my single location camera was taping Fine Art at Sacred Heart, TBCN’s entire Outreach establishment was fully engaged in immortalizing this year’s Ybor City Santa?

My other main project is to finish editing Jefferts Shori’s November 2008 appearance at St Mary’s. The story behind the latter commitment may be worth telling, as it might have represented the first and most preemptive acceptance of my work in recent memory. Alerted by the Southern Cross to our controversial Presiding Bishop’s impending visit to Southwest Florida in early November, I spammed my interest in making a single-camera location program for TBCN to all the parties involved. Eventually a note passed from Neva Rae Fox to Jim DeLa, identifying my contact for the event. A day after I recorded it, I posted two 11-minutes clips to YouTube seeking (from the perspective of my website) to solicit interest and/or comment for future development of the project. Most of the audio problems have been corrected, and I can only seek forgiveness for my difficulty with the focus and tripod. After two weeks I eventually received enabling permissions from all the senior clergy involved.

Unfortunately, my initial plan for a quick wrap on this project seemed to require adjustment for a more comprehensive interpretation of the PB’s visit. It seems DeLa’s Southern Cross (and his website) suggest what I consider to be a fairly hostile reception to the Bishop’s remarks earlier in her tour. If there should be some severe discrepancy in ecclesial objectives between our local authority and the national one, I think our on-line faithful need to be advised of the situation. We therefore considered the possibily of developing a more comprehensive representation of the PB’s Southeast tour, for which the diocese also had no interest.

Lacking that, we are now prepared nonetheless to cablecast an innocuous 1-hour version I have dubbed “Katharine in Florida – 2008,” whose air times are posted at the right for the week of December 20^th 2009. There are obvious technical flaws in the recording, but I hope you will appreciate my intent.
