TEXAS
FOLKI.D'E
FESIIVAL
t last count there were more than 500
festivals, fairs and fiestas in Texas every year.
There is, however, only one Texas Folklife
Festival. It's the biggest and best because youand
the 6,000 volunteers who stage it-make it
so.
The Folklife Festival is a unique extension of
L,.._ _____ _, The University of Texas Institute of Texan
Cultures. Its purpose is to present Texans as they really are-a
diverse, dispersed array of nationalities and cultural groups
who settled and developed the state.
Texas is a kind of United Nations, peopled by settlers from
more than 30 countries. Here you ·u meet them as they practice
the handicrafts brought from their homelands. join them in their
native dances and enjoy foods as old as the nationalities they
represent.
The Folklife Festival, like The Institute of Texan Cultures, is
something to experience ... to savor ... to repeat. Some come in,
stay awhile and come back again. You'll discover the real
Texas at a Festival which really is a family reunion of an entire
state.

Different meanings for different people ...
WHAT IS
FOLKLIFE? by Joe Graham
The desire to present our authentic
folklife-folk crafts, folk art, folk
performers-is the goal of the
Texas Folklife Festival. To label a
part of our festival as "folklife"
when it is only "folksy" or when it
is a popular craft or art, is confusing
and even deceptive. This is not
our intention. Some of our performers
fall in the category of
popular craftsmen.
The term "folklife" has different
meanings for different people. For
some, it conjures up an image of the
folksy rustic with his quaint practices;
for others, it may be used to
describe all aspects of the life of
the common people. There are four
characteristics which help identify
the authentic folk performers and
distinguish them from the popular
and the merely folksy.
First, a folk artist or folk craftsman
is community based. What he
does, or makes, is part of the tradi,
tions of his particular group.
ethnic, national, occupational, age,
religion or region. Members of this
particular group recognize the
song, work of art, or product as a
part of their culture. It is familiar,
and it communicates something
specific to members of the group.
Often the meaning is lost on outsiders.
Mariachi music, for example,
stirs the blood and quickens
the heartbeat of those in the folk
group to which this music belongs.
The outsider may think the music is
"good," but he doesn't feel that
special excitement felt by the folk
group.
Second, there is a continuity in
the materials and people involved
in the authentic folk performance.
The authentic folk craftsman, say a
blacksmith, would be one link in a
chain of craftsmen (blacksmiths) in
his community. Probably, he would
have learned from his father or
another relative, or from someone
else in the community. The black-
Joe Graham, folklorist in residence
at The Institute of Texan Cultures.
smith's tools and other equipment,
as well as the techniques he uses
and the products he makes, are not
new to him. They have been passed
down to him. Thus, there is a clear
continuity between the authentic
folk craftsman, his materials and
techniques and the past.
Closely related to his continuity
with the past is the third characteristic
of the authentic folk performer.
What he does will have
been learned and maintained
without formal instruction or institutional
direction.
The fourth defining characteristic
of an authentic folk performance
is that it is not changed
or "dressed up" for the new audience.
It should be as close as possible
to what it would be back home
in its natural setting.
Obviously, the Folklife Festival
forces some changes but it is possible
to maintain the integrity of the
performance. The folk performances
at the Festival may require
explanation where back
home none was necessary. For this
reason, we encourage our craftsmen,
artists and performers to talk
freely with visitors at the Festival,
and we hope that our visitors will
ask questions.
Since a number of the early
pioneer crafts have been unused
for several decades, there are no
authentic craftsmen and artists
practicing them. A number of folks
performing at the Texas Folklife
Festival have taken an interest in
these crafts and have learned how
to do them on their own. They seek
to perpetuate these early crafts,
and if possible, revive their practice
among those who wish to learn.
For example, spinning wool with
a drop spindle or on a spinning
wheel has not been a part of the living
traditions of Texas folk in the
20th Century. So without those who
have learned this craft through

means other than the traditional
way, we could not demonstrate this
and other early pioneer crafts. We
encourage all of our folk artists
and craftsmen to provide an unembellished,
authentic presentation

the Folklife Festival that all performers
put their particular activity
into the proper cultural context.

building the state as we know it
today.
From its beginnings in 1968, The
Institute used exhibits, books and
audio visuals to describe Texas
and Texans. Then, far-sighted
members of The Institute staff
decided to let the people themselves,
the descendants of Texas
immigrants, tell their own story.
The result was a vibrant and exciting
presentation of history that is
as much an educational experience
as a good time.
Texans' response to this idea
was overwhelming. They came
from every part of the state, represented
every color and religion
and boasted of a wide range of
skills and talents. They used all
their abilities to help The Institute
throw this big, four-day reunion.
They shared their traditional fciod,
music, games, crafts, dance and
art. And, more importantly, they
shared the joy of being residents of
the Lone Star State with their
neighbors, even if that "neighbor"
hailed from Laredo, El Paso or
Texarkana.
The celebration was so popular,
it became an annual affair. It
wasn't just a four-day extravaganza.
It's benefits have been many.
Several ethnic groups developed a
new awareness and pride, and
many organizations sprang up that
were dedicated to preserving cultural
awareness. Lost arts, such as
horsehair rope spinning, were not
only rediscovered; they were
taught to new generations of
Texans. And The Institute found
new directions. "Living exhibits"
became a vital part of The Institute's
day-to-day operations, and
today's Institute visitors quickly
find themselves learning tortilla
making or pioneer weaving and
discussing Texas music and
musicians.
Events modeled after the Festival
are now commonplace. But the
Texas Folklife Festival retains its
stature as the best of them all. Why
else would participants donate
their time and travel from all over
the state? Why do visitors come
from all over the world?
Because the Texas Folklife
Festival is a place to learn, a
chance to get back in touch with
our beginnings. And because it's
fun.
So, welcome to the Festival. We
know you'll have a good time, and
we hope you'll be back. •

A GUIDE TO THE TEXAS FOLKLIFE FESTIVAL
t only takes one movement to
click through the turnstiles.
But faced with a jumble of
sashaying dancers, beer and
boudain sausage, Czechs and
checkers, Hungarians and
hunger, whistlers and whitlers,
crochet squares and square
dancers, where do you turn?
The Texas Folklife Festival happens
all at once, so it's hard to map
out a firm route. But this overview
will help you pick your own starting
point. Activities are grouped by
areas, which can be found marked
on the map on the cover. Everything
hasn't been listed, but the fun of
the Festival is in discovery. And
participation. It ' s exciting .
Nostalgic. And the non-stop entertainment
can leave you breathless.
It 's truly a Texas experience.
THE GARDEN
Far from being the quiet place the
name implies, this mixture of madness
represents some of the best
ethnic music, food, bluegrass and
humor found at the Festival. Stage
1, a hum of activity, features the
screech of fiddles, twangs of
guitars and Texas slang and the
sound of bubble gum blowing and
the splashing of onions bobbing in
two of the contests. There are
crafts too, and a Filipino dancing
school-so be sure to make this
part of your visit.
Moving on, you can either go
down the Durango Street side of
the berm to your right or turn left
onto Flagpole Street.
FLAGPOLE STREET
This area is a cool bet for the
August heat-there are pubsboth
Irish and English-where you
can sit with a cold drink and indulge
in nothing more active than a
game of darts. Sample German
wurst while watching it being
made, or try Japanese yakitori,
Irish stew or Cornish pasties. A full
range of country and country tinged
music sounds from Stage 2, and
there 's always a ballad-singing
crowd gathered at the Irish piano.
The Texas Compadres booth allows
non-Texans to register as temporary
residents. They are outfitted
with badge and certificate in case
anyone challenges their enjoyment
of things Texan.
Before reaching the end of Flagpole
Street, you'll notice a bridge
leading to the Festival's newest area,
Skandinavian Skuare . A variety
of ethnic foods wait your discovery
so go on across the bridge. You'll
discover the taste delights of
Swedish meatballs , Norwegian
varm korv, and Greek souvlaki (a
shish kebab] and flaming cheese.
NORTH PARK BOULEVARD
The end of Flagpole Street tugs
you into the North Park Boulevard.
Here there 's a stewpot of ethnic
cuisine in which Chinese egg rolls,
hoecake, sausage, Hungarian
goulash, and Polish cabbage rolls
simmer into a heady Texas brew.
Stage 5 offers the world champion
yodeler, a teenage Lebanese beauty
doing centuries-old Middle
Eastern Dances or the stomp of cossack
boots. German village bands,
Czech Polkateers and Scandinavian
Dancers all add to the thump
of activity while ground-seated
visitors fan themselves on the cool,
grassy berms. A wide assortment
of ethnic crafts create a form of
general store so look over the
Polish papercuttings, decorated
eggs and Indian baskets.
Before leaving the area to circle
the berm, go through the tunnel to
The Institute side of the hill. Just inside,
a colorful variety of craftsmen
stitch, cut silhouettes or craft
glass. And the Wends, a museum
exhibit in themselves because of
their dwindling population, make
their stand teaching noodle making,
folk medicine and various
crafts. continued on page 17

BACK 40
Go on around The Institute porch
to the Mexican Mercado or go back
through the tunnel and follow the
paved path around the berm. This
spread is the Back 40, a round-up of
frontier activities corralling participants
and visitors alike in the
learning of old arts. During the
festival's history, these people
have taught, learned and worked
their way to completion of a dogrun
log cabin and a schoolhouse
and now are busy on a log kitchen.
Children can stake out Frontier
Playland, which features childsized
farm activities, while parents
do some larnin' at informal schools
that offer everything from sauerkraut
making to elocution. It's a
hoedown of activity, so take your
time or you might miss something.
To cool off, sit under a tree for the
tall tales and remembrances of one
of many storytellers or relax under
the Brush Arbor.
By now, you're probably hungry,
so walk back over to the pedestrian
pathway. There are cool drinks and
ethnic foods ranging from Scottish
fish and chips to chicken fried
steak to Alsatian delicacies nested
in an authentic reproduction of an
old-world house. If you're getting
full, just order a 20¢ taste. Thirst
and hunger sated, amble over to
the rural mailbox attached to a tall
pole. There you can catch the
chicken flying contest. Pick out
your favorite and hope for a sudden
death chicken fly-off. Stage 3 is
a sampler of ethnic folk dance and
song. Sometimes Bones Nobles
whirls his set of cow rib bones to
just about any kind of music, providing
a percussion sound.
Weaving your way through the
tapestry of horsehair rope makers,
cow and hog dogs, mules, cane
mills, muzzleloaders, folk artists
and the chuck wagon may take
some time, but it 's worth it. It's a
feast for the eyes and ears, so take
time to talk. Everyone's friendly
and their stories will teach you a
history of Texas no textbook can
lay claim to.
MEXICAN MERCADO
At the Mexican Mercado, bustling
between the Back 40 berm and
The Institute, visitors roam in and
out of Middle Eastern and Mexican
market places. It's the only place
you can eat tabooli with chalupas
while bartering for a pinata. Perch
on the berm to watch flamenco and
Mexican dancers at Stage 7 or on
the slope for some Lebanese belly
dancing on Stage 8.
Now that you're on The Institute
side of the Berm, go on around the
corner. Grab something to drink.
You'll need it. After you've eaten
your way past the chili cookers
you'll find yourself face-to-face
with some of the Cajun's spicy boudain
sausage or a bowl of gumbo.
Then join the crowd ahead of you
and trip the light fais-do-do [two
step) while Cajun fiddlers saw
away at their instruments.
If you can tear yourself away
from the Cajun music, circle back
around the berm and you'll find
yourself on the Durango Street
side. This extension of the Back 40
has a lazy air. Old men play the
Italian lawn bowling game of
Bocce. See cows swish tails at flies
and non-flying chickens on exhibit.
Watch a sheep shearer at work or
a goose getting plucked. And the
clang of a blacksmith's hammer on
the anvil is almost hypnotizing. For
a little excitement, hop on the
wagon for a free ride; then start
around the Festival for a second
look. •

If there is a common meeting
ground for Texas singers it is in
religious music. I don't mean just
any religious music, but the old,
traditional songs of our faith and of
our fathers, the songs that were as
much a part of our raising as the
fire-and-brimstone preachers who
helped nail them down in our
memories. And if there is a particularly
traditional place for the
sound of those old songs , it is under
a brush arbor, that harborer of red
wasps and chicken snakes that pro-vided
some relief from the heat of a
tin-roofed church house during the
summer's Sunday sermons and revivals,
protracted meetings, and
annual associations. The brush
arbor was also the center of ail-day
singings and dinners on the grounds
and the place where modern gospel
music spent much of its early life.
The music sung under the brush
arbors in the early days of Texas
were songs common to the southern
Anglo-Saxon traditions, tunes
brought over from the Old Country
just a few generations back.
Southern frontier preachers took
popular tunes-the Devil's musicput
religious words to them, and
sent their prayerful songs soaring
to God through the wilderness.
Many of these early religious songs
were collected in 1844 by B. F.
White in a shape-note song book
called Sacred Harp, and "sacred
harp" became the name of one kind
of early religious music and the
ancestor to modern gospel music.
But this fasola music was still a
long way from modern gospel. The
world was harsh for the early
settlers who came through the
wilderness and survival was
difficult, so most of the songs they '~
sang were mournful and in a minor
key and directed the soul 's eye
across to the other side of Jordan
and away from the troubles of this
world.
The religious musical mood
changed toward the end of the
nineteenth century because the
quality of life improved. In the
battle between man and the wilderness,
man had just about won, and
his music began to express his joy
in the victory and his optimism
about his life on earth. The tempo
quickened and the mournful sounding
minor keys shifted to the more

positive majors, and the religious
music began to reflect the popular
musical styles of the Gay Nineties
and the turn of the century. This
new joyous bouncy mood with a
hint of ragtime was the beginnings
of modern gospel music.
Convention gospel music became
a musical fact in East Texas in the
1920's through the publications
and the singing schools established
by the Stamps brothers. It became
big business in Dallas in 1926 with
the foundation of the Stamps-Baxter
Music Company. Regular gospel
singing conventions with aU-day
singing and dinner on the grounds
became traditional Texas gatherings,
and the gospel sound was
circulated out of East Texas
through the South by radio and by .
the rapid proliferation of imitators
of the Stamps Quartet. Anybody
growing up in Texas in the late
Twenties and Thirties who listened
to radio will remember the Stamps
Quartet's snycopated theme song,
"Give the World a Smile Each
Day."
The evolution of gospel music
since 1926 has been synchronized
with the musical and social movements
of these last fifty years.
Gospel music absorbed all the
modern musical sounds at one time
or another-jazz, swing, country
and western, black rhythm and
blues, and modern rock-and it
brought into its fold all the musical
instruments played by pop artists.
It has spread far beyond brush
arbors and its Texas origins, and
has become a popular religious
musical medium for all ethnic
groups, blacks doing more to
integrate it with their musical
sounds than any other group.
Brush arbors are scarce nowadays,
but the music that spent part
of its childhood under their comforting
shade is as alive today as
this world's joy and the songs' assurances
of salvation. Gospel music
continues to give the world a smile
each day. •

MEET THE
FESTIVAL
MANAGER
The Texas Folklife Festival is truly
a labor of love for Manager
Claudia Ball. This is her eighth
Fes1ival, third as manager, and she
brings to it as much devotion and
excitement as she brought to the
first.
Her formidable skills as an organizer
will be evident to Festival
visitors. But what you may not see
is the patience and determination
that have won her the respect of
Festival participants and workers
alike. Yet, Claudia is quick to give
credit to the Festival Steering and
Selection Committees.
Festival Manager Claudia Ball with
her ever present companion Berm
Dog, official I. T. C. mascot.
"The Steering Committee 's
guidelines and the Selection Committee's
enforcement of those
guidelines have made my job much
simpler this year," she said.
When she is not re-working the
Festival map, screening
performers or crisscrossing the
state in search of new talent,
Claudia spends her time organizing
special events for The Institute.
Her free time is usually devoted to
hunting trips in central and west
Texas.
"What I love most about the
Festival," she said, "is the feeling
that we're all just one big family.' '•

The Texas Folk:life Festival is only a
part of the overall educational program
of The University of Texas
Institute of Texan Cultures at San
Antonio.
The Institute is many things.
Most visibly, it is a magnificent
exhibit floor that tells the story of
Texas through the lives of her
people. In an area roughly the size
of a football field, the Texas experience
is presented with dramatic
lighting, sound effects and multimedia
shows. Divided into ethnic
exhibit areas, The Institute uses
artifacts, old photographs, art and
text to describe the contributions
made by each group. These arti-
', facts and exhibits, many of which
are constantly changing, reflect
new field research and the driving
desire to show all aspects of ethnic
pioneer life in the state.
The exhibit floor also sets the
stage for demonstrations of traditional
crafts and skills and performances
of folk music and art by
professional interpreters.
The Institute's professional staff
is supplemented by hundreds of
volunteers who do everything from
answering telephones to producing
holiday skits for visitors. Training
sessions for volunteers are held
each September and January.
These people, from all walks of life,
help spread The Institute's
message by leading tours and
taking traveling shows to civic
groups, study clubs, schools and
nursing homes. They assist in
preparing students for field trips to
The Institute.
They also help present Special
Sundays and Craft Heritage Workshops.
Special Sundays are free
afternoons of entertainment, food
and fellowship focusing on the contributions
of individual ethnic
groups. Craft workshops are held
throughout the year and teach such
folk arts as kite making, weaving
and Indian crafts.
Other special programs include
an innovative film series featuring
a new title each month. The films
focus on the arts, cultural groups
and other topics. Informal concerts
and plays also are a favorite
feature with the fare running from
classical guitar, madrigal singers
and brass bands to productions
staged by high school students.
Two special galleries in The
Institute feature constantly
changing exhibits that can range
from Mexican toys to Texas eccentrics
to depression-era photographs.
Butthere's more to The Institute
than its exhibit floor. A learning
and communication center for the
interpretation of Texas history,
culture and folklore, The Institute
also produces publications and
books, filmstrips, slide shows,
videotaped productions, traveling
shows and special exhibits in its
quest to tell the state about its
history. It houses a library, a research
staff, a production department,
even cabinet makers who
build the exhibit cases you see.
No matter how many times
you've visited The Institute, there
is always something new to see or
do. So start planning your next trip
now. It's the perfect place to bring
out-of-state visitors or just to spend
the day with family or friends.

Benefactors of Texas Folklife Festival
In past years, The Institute of
Texan Cultures staff has recognized
certain Texans as Special
Benefactors. They were chosen
because of significant contributions
they made to the success of
the Festival. Lifetime passes to the
Festival have been presented to
H.B. Zachry of San Antonio, without
whose material support, confidence
and enthusiasm, there
would be no Festival; Arnold Griffin
of Devine whose inspiration, work
and leadership have helped create
the pioneer complex on the Back
40; Charles C. Butt of Corpus Christi
and San Antonio who publicizes the
event all over the state; and Cactus
Pryor of Austin, who has become
"the voice" of the Texas Folklife
Festival through all the public service
announcements, slide shows
and programs he has narrated.
SAN ANTONIO. Major universities. Junior colleges. The University of Texas Health
Science Center. The School of Aerospace Medicine. Southwest Research Institute. The
Witte Museum. The McNay Art Institute, and the famous Institute of Texan Cultures
from HemisFair '68. For all generations, San Antonio is a city of enrichment. NBC
continues to be involved with the educational and cultural activities, as well as business in
San Antonio and throughout South Texas. San Antonio is an investment with great returns
and greater promise. We are involved. That's confidence.

| Full Text | TEXAS FOLKI.D'E FESIIVAL t last count there were more than 500 festivals, fairs and fiestas in Texas every year. There is, however, only one Texas Folklife Festival. It's the biggest and best because youand the 6,000 volunteers who stage it-make it so. The Folklife Festival is a unique extension of L,.._ _____ _, The University of Texas Institute of Texan Cultures. Its purpose is to present Texans as they really are-a diverse, dispersed array of nationalities and cultural groups who settled and developed the state. Texas is a kind of United Nations, peopled by settlers from more than 30 countries. Here you ·u meet them as they practice the handicrafts brought from their homelands. join them in their native dances and enjoy foods as old as the nationalities they represent. The Folklife Festival, like The Institute of Texan Cultures, is something to experience ... to savor ... to repeat. Some come in, stay awhile and come back again. You'll discover the real Texas at a Festival which really is a family reunion of an entire state. Cordially, g~r~ >}l~ Executive Director 3 AMBASSADORS We have Ambassadors around the state who help publicize the Festival in their communities by distributing posters and brochures, making speeches, and encouraging their local media to use our stories and public service announcements.

WHAT IS FOLKLIFE? by Joe Graham The desire to present our authentic folklife-folk crafts, folk art, folk performers-is the goal of the Texas Folklife Festival. To label a part of our festival as "folklife" when it is only "folksy" or when it is a popular craft or art, is confusing and even deceptive. This is not our intention. Some of our performers fall in the category of popular craftsmen. The term "folklife" has different meanings for different people. For some, it conjures up an image of the folksy rustic with his quaint practices; for others, it may be used to describe all aspects of the life of the common people. There are four characteristics which help identify the authentic folk performers and distinguish them from the popular and the merely folksy. First, a folk artist or folk craftsman is community based. What he does, or makes, is part of the tradi, tions of his particular group. ethnic, national, occupational, age, religion or region. Members of this particular group recognize the song, work of art, or product as a part of their culture. It is familiar, and it communicates something specific to members of the group. Often the meaning is lost on outsiders. Mariachi music, for example, stirs the blood and quickens the heartbeat of those in the folk group to which this music belongs. The outsider may think the music is "good" but he doesn't feel that special excitement felt by the folk group. Second, there is a continuity in the materials and people involved in the authentic folk performance. The authentic folk craftsman, say a blacksmith, would be one link in a chain of craftsmen (blacksmiths) in his community. Probably, he would have learned from his father or another relative, or from someone else in the community. The black- Joe Graham, folklorist in residence at The Institute of Texan Cultures. smith's tools and other equipment, as well as the techniques he uses and the products he makes, are not new to him. They have been passed down to him. Thus, there is a clear continuity between the authentic folk craftsman, his materials and techniques and the past. Closely related to his continuity with the past is the third characteristic of the authentic folk performer. What he does will have been learned and maintained without formal instruction or institutional direction. The fourth defining characteristic of an authentic folk performance is that it is not changed or "dressed up" for the new audience. It should be as close as possible to what it would be back home in its natural setting. Obviously, the Folklife Festival forces some changes but it is possible to maintain the integrity of the performance. The folk performances at the Festival may require explanation where back home none was necessary. For this reason, we encourage our craftsmen, artists and performers to talk freely with visitors at the Festival, and we hope that our visitors will ask questions. Since a number of the early pioneer crafts have been unused for several decades, there are no authentic craftsmen and artists practicing them. A number of folks performing at the Texas Folklife Festival have taken an interest in these crafts and have learned how to do them on their own. They seek to perpetuate these early crafts, and if possible, revive their practice among those who wish to learn.

From its beginnings in 1968, The Institute used exhibits, books and audio visuals to describe Texas and Texans. Then, far-sighted members of The Institute staff decided to let the people themselves, the descendants of Texas immigrants, tell their own story. The result was a vibrant and exciting presentation of history that is as much an educational experience as a good time. Texans' response to this idea was overwhelming. They came from every part of the state, represented every color and religion and boasted of a wide range of skills and talents. They used all their abilities to help The Institute throw this big, four-day reunion. They shared their traditional fciod, music, games, crafts, dance and art. And, more importantly, they shared the joy of being residents of the Lone Star State with their neighbors, even if that "neighbor" hailed from Laredo, El Paso or Texarkana. The celebration was so popular, it became an annual affair. It wasn't just a four-day extravaganza. It's benefits have been many. Several ethnic groups developed a new awareness and pride, and many organizations sprang up that were dedicated to preserving cultural awareness. Lost arts, such as horsehair rope spinning, were not only rediscovered; they were taught to new generations of Texans. And The Institute found new directions. "Living exhibits" became a vital part of The Institute's day-to-day operations, and today's Institute visitors quickly find themselves learning tortilla making or pioneer weaving and discussing Texas music and musicians. Events modeled after the Festival are now commonplace. But the Texas Folklife Festival retains its stature as the best of them all. Why else would participants donate their time and travel from all over the state? Why do visitors come from all over the world? Because the Texas Folklife Festival is a place to learn, a chance to get back in touch with our beginnings. And because it's fun. So, welcome to the Festival. We know you'll have a good time, and we hope you'll be back. • 10 I':"" [ I I I I ! I 12 A GUIDE TO THE TEXAS FOLKLIFE FESTIVAL t only takes one movement to click through the turnstiles. But faced with a jumble of sashaying dancers, beer and boudain sausage, Czechs and checkers, Hungarians and hunger, whistlers and whitlers, crochet squares and square dancers, where do you turn? The Texas Folklife Festival happens all at once, so it's hard to map out a firm route. But this overview will help you pick your own starting point. Activities are grouped by areas, which can be found marked on the map on the cover. Everything hasn't been listed, but the fun of the Festival is in discovery. And participation. It ' s exciting . Nostalgic. And the non-stop entertainment can leave you breathless. It 's truly a Texas experience. THE GARDEN Far from being the quiet place the name implies, this mixture of madness represents some of the best ethnic music, food, bluegrass and humor found at the Festival. Stage 1, a hum of activity, features the screech of fiddles, twangs of guitars and Texas slang and the sound of bubble gum blowing and the splashing of onions bobbing in two of the contests. There are crafts too, and a Filipino dancing school-so be sure to make this part of your visit. Moving on, you can either go down the Durango Street side of the berm to your right or turn left onto Flagpole Street. FLAGPOLE STREET This area is a cool bet for the August heat-there are pubsboth Irish and English-where you can sit with a cold drink and indulge in nothing more active than a game of darts. Sample German wurst while watching it being made, or try Japanese yakitori, Irish stew or Cornish pasties. A full range of country and country tinged music sounds from Stage 2, and there 's always a ballad-singing crowd gathered at the Irish piano. The Texas Compadres booth allows non-Texans to register as temporary residents. They are outfitted with badge and certificate in case anyone challenges their enjoyment of things Texan. Before reaching the end of Flagpole Street, you'll notice a bridge leading to the Festival's newest area, Skandinavian Skuare . A variety of ethnic foods wait your discovery so go on across the bridge. You'll discover the taste delights of Swedish meatballs , Norwegian varm korv, and Greek souvlaki (a shish kebab] and flaming cheese. NORTH PARK BOULEVARD The end of Flagpole Street tugs you into the North Park Boulevard. Here there 's a stewpot of ethnic cuisine in which Chinese egg rolls, hoecake, sausage, Hungarian goulash, and Polish cabbage rolls simmer into a heady Texas brew. Stage 5 offers the world champion yodeler, a teenage Lebanese beauty doing centuries-old Middle Eastern Dances or the stomp of cossack boots. German village bands, Czech Polkateers and Scandinavian Dancers all add to the thump of activity while ground-seated visitors fan themselves on the cool, grassy berms. A wide assortment of ethnic crafts create a form of general store so look over the Polish papercuttings, decorated eggs and Indian baskets. Before leaving the area to circle the berm, go through the tunnel to The Institute side of the hill. Just inside, a colorful variety of craftsmen stitch, cut silhouettes or craft glass. And the Wends, a museum exhibit in themselves because of their dwindling population, make their stand teaching noodle making, folk medicine and various crafts. continued on page 17 13 Enjoy a Cold Lone Star Beer while you visit the TEXAS FOLKLIFE FESTIVAL '~~ You'll enjoy too ... the Lone Star Brewing Company's Buckhorn Bar, the world-famed Hall of Horns, Fins & Feathers.

Box 1159 New Braunfels, Texas 78130 15 i I I I I 16 BACK 40 Go on around The Institute porch to the Mexican Mercado or go back through the tunnel and follow the paved path around the berm. This spread is the Back 40, a round-up of frontier activities corralling participants and visitors alike in the learning of old arts. During the festival's history, these people have taught, learned and worked their way to completion of a dogrun log cabin and a schoolhouse and now are busy on a log kitchen. Children can stake out Frontier Playland, which features childsized farm activities, while parents do some larnin' at informal schools that offer everything from sauerkraut making to elocution. It's a hoedown of activity, so take your time or you might miss something. To cool off, sit under a tree for the tall tales and remembrances of one of many storytellers or relax under the Brush Arbor. By now, you're probably hungry, so walk back over to the pedestrian pathway. There are cool drinks and ethnic foods ranging from Scottish fish and chips to chicken fried steak to Alsatian delicacies nested in an authentic reproduction of an old-world house. If you're getting full, just order a 20¢ taste. Thirst and hunger sated, amble over to the rural mailbox attached to a tall pole. There you can catch the chicken flying contest. Pick out your favorite and hope for a sudden death chicken fly-off. Stage 3 is a sampler of ethnic folk dance and song. Sometimes Bones Nobles whirls his set of cow rib bones to just about any kind of music, providing a percussion sound. Weaving your way through the tapestry of horsehair rope makers, cow and hog dogs, mules, cane mills, muzzleloaders, folk artists and the chuck wagon may take some time, but it 's worth it. It's a feast for the eyes and ears, so take time to talk. Everyone's friendly and their stories will teach you a history of Texas no textbook can lay claim to. MEXICAN MERCADO At the Mexican Mercado, bustling between the Back 40 berm and The Institute, visitors roam in and out of Middle Eastern and Mexican market places. It's the only place you can eat tabooli with chalupas while bartering for a pinata. Perch on the berm to watch flamenco and Mexican dancers at Stage 7 or on the slope for some Lebanese belly dancing on Stage 8. Now that you're on The Institute side of the Berm, go on around the corner. Grab something to drink. You'll need it. After you've eaten your way past the chili cookers you'll find yourself face-to-face with some of the Cajun's spicy boudain sausage or a bowl of gumbo. Then join the crowd ahead of you and trip the light fais-do-do [two step) while Cajun fiddlers saw away at their instruments. If you can tear yourself away from the Cajun music, circle back around the berm and you'll find yourself on the Durango Street side. This extension of the Back 40 has a lazy air. Old men play the Italian lawn bowling game of Bocce. See cows swish tails at flies and non-flying chickens on exhibit. Watch a sheep shearer at work or a goose getting plucked. And the clang of a blacksmith's hammer on the anvil is almost hypnotizing. For a little excitement, hop on the wagon for a free ride; then start around the Festival for a second look. • 17 ~1 ' .

By the Alamo San Antonio 29 30 If there is a common meeting ground for Texas singers it is in religious music. I don't mean just any religious music, but the old, traditional songs of our faith and of our fathers, the songs that were as much a part of our raising as the fire-and-brimstone preachers who helped nail them down in our memories. And if there is a particularly traditional place for the sound of those old songs , it is under a brush arbor, that harborer of red wasps and chicken snakes that pro-vided some relief from the heat of a tin-roofed church house during the summer's Sunday sermons and revivals, protracted meetings, and annual associations. The brush arbor was also the center of ail-day singings and dinners on the grounds and the place where modern gospel music spent much of its early life. The music sung under the brush arbors in the early days of Texas were songs common to the southern Anglo-Saxon traditions, tunes brought over from the Old Country just a few generations back. Southern frontier preachers took popular tunes-the Devil's musicput religious words to them, and sent their prayerful songs soaring to God through the wilderness. Many of these early religious songs were collected in 1844 by B. F. White in a shape-note song book called Sacred Harp, and "sacred harp" became the name of one kind of early religious music and the ancestor to modern gospel music. But this fasola music was still a long way from modern gospel. The world was harsh for the early settlers who came through the wilderness and survival was difficult, so most of the songs they '~ sang were mournful and in a minor key and directed the soul 's eye across to the other side of Jordan and away from the troubles of this world. The religious musical mood changed toward the end of the nineteenth century because the quality of life improved. In the battle between man and the wilderness, man had just about won, and his music began to express his joy in the victory and his optimism about his life on earth. The tempo quickened and the mournful sounding minor keys shifted to the more continued on page 32 31 II 'I positive majors, and the religious music began to reflect the popular musical styles of the Gay Nineties and the turn of the century. This new joyous bouncy mood with a hint of ragtime was the beginnings of modern gospel music. Convention gospel music became a musical fact in East Texas in the 1920's through the publications and the singing schools established by the Stamps brothers. It became big business in Dallas in 1926 with the foundation of the Stamps-Baxter Music Company. Regular gospel singing conventions with aU-day singing and dinner on the grounds became traditional Texas gatherings, and the gospel sound was circulated out of East Texas through the South by radio and by . the rapid proliferation of imitators of the Stamps Quartet. Anybody growing up in Texas in the late Twenties and Thirties who listened to radio will remember the Stamps Quartet's snycopated theme song, "Give the World a Smile Each Day." The evolution of gospel music since 1926 has been synchronized with the musical and social movements of these last fifty years. Gospel music absorbed all the modern musical sounds at one time or another-jazz, swing, country and western, black rhythm and blues, and modern rock-and it brought into its fold all the musical instruments played by pop artists. It has spread far beyond brush arbors and its Texas origins, and has become a popular religious musical medium for all ethnic groups, blacks doing more to integrate it with their musical sounds than any other group. Brush arbors are scarce nowadays, but the music that spent part of its childhood under their comforting shade is as alive today as this world's joy and the songs' assurances of salvation. Gospel music continues to give the world a smile each day. • Francis E.

This is her eighth Fes1ival, third as manager, and she brings to it as much devotion and excitement as she brought to the first. Her formidable skills as an organizer will be evident to Festival visitors. But what you may not see is the patience and determination that have won her the respect of Festival participants and workers alike. Yet, Claudia is quick to give credit to the Festival Steering and Selection Committees. Festival Manager Claudia Ball with her ever present companion Berm Dog, official I. T. C. mascot. "The Steering Committee 's guidelines and the Selection Committee's enforcement of those guidelines have made my job much simpler this year" she said. When she is not re-working the Festival map, screening performers or crisscrossing the state in search of new talent, Claudia spends her time organizing special events for The Institute. Her free time is usually devoted to hunting trips in central and west Texas. "What I love most about the Festival" she said, "is the feeling that we're all just one big family.'

The Institute is many things. Most visibly, it is a magnificent exhibit floor that tells the story of Texas through the lives of her people. In an area roughly the size of a football field, the Texas experience is presented with dramatic lighting, sound effects and multimedia shows. Divided into ethnic exhibit areas, The Institute uses artifacts, old photographs, art and text to describe the contributions made by each group. These arti- ', facts and exhibits, many of which are constantly changing, reflect new field research and the driving desire to show all aspects of ethnic pioneer life in the state. The exhibit floor also sets the stage for demonstrations of traditional crafts and skills and performances of folk music and art by professional interpreters. The Institute's professional staff is supplemented by hundreds of volunteers who do everything from answering telephones to producing holiday skits for visitors. Training sessions for volunteers are held each September and January. These people, from all walks of life, help spread The Institute's message by leading tours and taking traveling shows to civic groups, study clubs, schools and nursing homes. They assist in preparing students for field trips to The Institute. They also help present Special Sundays and Craft Heritage Workshops. Special Sundays are free afternoons of entertainment, food and fellowship focusing on the contributions of individual ethnic groups. Craft workshops are held throughout the year and teach such folk arts as kite making, weaving and Indian crafts. Other special programs include an innovative film series featuring a new title each month. The films focus on the arts, cultural groups and other topics. Informal concerts and plays also are a favorite feature with the fare running from classical guitar, madrigal singers and brass bands to productions staged by high school students. Two special galleries in The Institute feature constantly changing exhibits that can range from Mexican toys to Texas eccentrics to depression-era photographs. Butthere's more to The Institute than its exhibit floor. A learning and communication center for the interpretation of Texas history, culture and folklore, The Institute also produces publications and books, filmstrips, slide shows, videotaped productions, traveling shows and special exhibits in its quest to tell the state about its history. It houses a library, a research staff, a production department, even cabinet makers who build the exhibit cases you see. No matter how many times you've visited The Institute, there is always something new to see or do. So start planning your next trip now. It's the perfect place to bring out-of-state visitors or just to spend the day with family or friends.
