CoverWords from the fi rst edition of Tinteán describing the choice of name: the Irish word Tinteán (pronounced Tintoyne), meaning 'the hearth'.

Objectives The Australian Irish Heritage Network aims to build the social, cultural, sporting, historical and literary consciousness of Irish Australians and to explore and celebrate the development of Irish heritage and culture in Australia.Principal ActivityAs its fi rst priority, AIHN produces the literary magazine Tinteán (meaning hearth in Gaelic and pronounced ‘Tintawne’ – the fada on the á giving the syllable the dominant stress and the ‘augh’ sound, as in ‘taught’). The focus of the magazine is to build and explore the Aus-tralian Irish identity. The magazine welcomes material which explores the big themes of exile, diaspora and settlement. It also encourages the telling of the micro-stories that express narratives of individuals and families. There will be a continual study of the political and economic evolution of Ireland, and of the contribution which Irish-Aus-

tralians have made to Australia. The intention is to explore and celebrate the playing out of the Irish heritage in Australia – past, present and future.ActivitiesAs well as the magazine, AIHN plans to conduct social and educational events; disseminate news and information via the internet; off er recognition for service to literary and historical endeavours; issue cultural and political comment; and research and record our heritage.Membership Anyone identifying with Irish heritage is welcome to join.AIHN CommitteePresident: Frances Devlin-GlassVice-President: Peter KiernanSecretary: Bob GlassTreasurer: Rob ButlerCommittee Members: Felicity Allen, Liz McKenzie

Editorial – Au Revoir

With the demise of Tinteán magazine, the management group feels a strong obligation to attempt to reimburse all those who have paid subscriptions in advance of June this year. In pursuing this action, there are several criteria to be followed:

A full year subscription of $55, covering four issues, equates to $13.75 per issueConcessional payments have been off ered to pensioners at a rate of $40 p.a. which equates to just under the cost of three issues, the fourth being provided free of chargeHighest priority will be given to those who have taken advantage of the two year subscription rate of $100 and who have paid subscriptions covering issues beyond 2012. It is confi dently anticipated that these re-imbursements will be made in July as advertising revenue is received.Reimbursements for others who have paid for prospective September and December 2012 issues will be made as funds become available.

Refund of subscriptions

Val Noone

New book by Val Noone for release in June 2012Hidden Ireland in Victoria is about the songs, stories, poems, prayers and accents – as well as events and monuments – of those whose original language was Irish. It has 216 pages and over 250 images, with full colour throughout. Drawing on decades of research and community involvement, plus a unique collection of images, Val Noone shows that there is much more evidence of Hidden Ireland than previous writers have reported.“Original and stimulating” - Elizabeth Malcolm“A provocative counter to standard histories.” - Louis de Paor“A must-read.” - Wayne Atkinson “Clear, accessible and humane.” - Angela Gehrig

Plans for the the William Vincent Wal-lace Bicentenary Concert are taking shape. The Bendigo concert (9 Sep-tember) has received a generous grant from the City of Greater Bendigo – CGB. The CGB has also awarded the concert a Bendigo Bank Theatre Subsidy, as the Bendigo Bank Theatre is part of the Capitol complex. This subsidy covers the services of the professional Capitol staff as front of house staff and a pro-fessional lighting technician.

The fi rst part of the concert, which recounts the story of Wallace’s amaz-ing life, will be located in an Austra-lian bush setting. A narrator recounts this story in Australian bush ballad style, with mimed activities by young performers taking place around the campfi re. The music, both songs and background instrumental music, will be performed by amateur singers and musicians. This fi rst half will feature a smorgasbord of such music from the main countries where Wallace lived and worked – Ireland, Australia, Chile, Brazil, the USA, and the UK, as well as some of his songs and piano pieces.

Professional artists feature in the second half of the concert – the ‘Mari-tana’ selection. Soprano Jennifer Schat-zle will sing the role of ‘Maritana.’ The roles of Don José and the King of Spain will be sung by former Opera Australia baritone, Peter Hunt. The role of Don Cesar de Bazaan is to be sung by Cana-dian-born and Adelaide-based tenor Ernst Ens, who sings with the State Opera of South Australia and Opera

Australia – subject to confi rmation. The mezzo – soprano role of Lazarillo is yet to be decided. Amateur singers will sing one number from ‘Maritana’, and a small chorus will be assembled.

‘Maritana’ was fi rst presented in Sydney in April 1849. For the rest of the nineteenth century, it remained highly popular in Australia, Britain, and Ireland. Its popularity has waned since then, and I wonder if it has been per-formed in Australia since the 1950s. I will be pleased to hear from any reader who can enlighten me on this.

The question has arisen as to which of the two performances will be the special concert, with invited VIPs, sense of a really special event, and after concert supper. The answer is very simple: it depends on the level of support. The performance at The Celtic Club (Melbourne) is on Sunday 16 September. We still need inter-ested people based in Melbourne to form a sub-committee, and a small team of people to handle front of house at The Celtic Club on the night. One of the Irish organisations based in Melbourne might wish to take on the latter role.It would be most reas-suring to see that the high level of support which is being received in Bendigo be matched by support from the Irish and/ or Irish/Australian com-munity in Melbourne.

IndexThis Index is in two parts.Part 1 lists, as authors, all those who have contributed articles, poetry, reviews and letters and the title of their contribution, abbreviated where required, is listed shown by the issue and, after the colon, the relevant page number(s). A comma is used to separate page numbers in the same issue.

In Part 2, the authors of any reviewed publications are listed both separately and with the actual titles of these publications. Sig-nifi cant subjects covered in the pages of Tinteán and titles of poems or reviewed books, fi lms or plays are listed in Part 2, in italics. Authors of poems are shown with the titles.

The Editorial Committee would like to express our gratitude to and admiration of Robert Butler for the compilation of the index. It was a mammoth task, done with great skill and aplomb by Rob, who is of course a very valued member of the team and without whom, you, dear reader, would probably not receive your copy of the magazine!
