 EARLY MUSIC REVIEW: Refinement and Mayhem By Michelle Dulak (John Holloway, Lars Ulrik Mortensen, October 13, 2002)
John Holloway is probably best known in early-music circles as Roger Norrington's concertmaster through the 1980s, the leader of the London Classical Players in the years when Norrington's band was busy Breaking Down Barriers, Setting New Standards, &c.
Holloway slipped from one character to another with remarkable grace, given that half the time the shift was from "serene Angel-violinist" to "Devil-fiddler-from-Hell" or back again.
Holloway doesn't have quite the ornamental imagination of Andrew Manze (the first Baroque violinist to record this Biber set, and a major rival in all this music); there were a few distressingly lame embellishments.

 RECITAL REVIEW: Searching for the Art of Baroque By Michelle Dulak Thomson (John Holloway, October 21, 2006)
Baroque violinist John Holloway's first recording venture was, I think, the complete Handel chamber music with the chamber ensemble L'Ecole d'Orphée, close to 30 years ago.
Holloway writes that he, like every violinist, grew up with the Sonatas and Partitas as standard repertory, and that he approached them from the later violin canon and went backward.
Holloway played the entire recital from music, and during the first two-thirds of it he was sitting down.

John Holloway was concertmaster of the London Classical Players under Sir Roger Norrington, and of the Taverner Players under Andrew Parrott, from their formation in the 1970s until the early 1990s.
Holloway paces the virtuosity so that it never cloys, swaggering nicely in the Capriccio cromatico, rhetorical in the Adagio, with an eye to a climax in the Ciaccona, neatly foiled at the last minute by mock tragedy and an unexpected harmonic twist.

John Holloway has studied the Zapatista revolution of the Chiapas region in Mexico and is well placed to show that far from being terrorists, these indigenous peoples have proved that self–organization is not a hippy dream and that autonomous assemblies do not need advanced capitalism and bureaucratic democracy.
John Zerzan, the Eugene–based anarchist whose writings are said to have inspired the anti–WTO protests in Seattle in 1999, would probably say he isn't because he uses symbolic culture, one of the harbingers of civilization, which many in the anti–globalization movement apparently want to destroy.

 John Holloway Hastings - Related to Daniel Haston Family?
Apparently, John Holloway Hastings' father's family lived in Knox County, TN at or near the same time that the Daniel Haston family lived there.
Peggy Hastings, who married John Ault in Knox County, TN on November 22, 1809, was the sister of John Holloway Hastings.
The strongest evidence that argues against a kinship relationship between John Holloway Hastings and Isaac Haston/Hastings is a lack of evidence to establish such a familial relationship.

 Barnes & Noble.com - Music: Bach: Sonatas & Partitas for Violin Solo, John Holloway, CD
Holloway’s is the warmer performance of the two, though that’s not always to be expected from period instruments; his violin sound has a distinctive character, and it’s allowed to resonate spaciously in the Austrian monastery where he was recorded.
Holloway is considerably more restrained, and the music he makes here doesn't seem quite so extreme; the work as he plays it seems more of a piece with the rest of Bach's output, and that's probably a good thing.
Holloway's calm application of superior skills to this music, however, comes to seem entirely appropriate as you immerse yourself in his performance.

 ZNet |Vision & Strategy | Taking Power Seriously: A Response to John Holloway
John Holloway, well-known left intellectual and author of the popular polemic Change the World Without Taking Power: The Meaning of Revolution Today, recently offered a concise presentation of his strategic vision on revolutionary change at ZNet.
It is not clear why Holloway believes the answer is to abandon the arena altogether, instead of working on new ways to address the flaws of the movement which are revealed within it.
It is unfortunate that Holloway, in accepting the framework of false dichotomies about state and people, necessarily rejects the state and the electoral arena as a site of social struggle.

 John Holloway's complaint « Louis Proyect: The Unrepentant Marxist
Standing in the same relationship to the autonomist currents that Regis Debray once had with the rural guerrilla groups of the 1960s, British professor John Holloway has been forced to take stock of the situation in an interview conducted by Marina Sitrin, an American leftist who writes about Argentine autonomism.
Holloway is the author of “How to Change the World Without Taking Power” that I reviewed here.
It basically argues that “If the state paradigm was the vehicle of hope for much of the century, it became more and more the assassin of hope as the century progressed.” It is good for workers to rebel in his view but not good to rule.

 Culture • John Holloway plays Biber
Here's another posting, in the manner of this previous one a few days ago, about a CD of rather obscure music that is well worth investigating if you like that sort of thing.
I'm talking about a double disc of violin sonatas I have recently acquired, composed by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber (1644-1704 or 1705 - there seems to be disagreement), and played by period violinist John Holloway.
I was provoked into purchasing these discs by hearing what I now realise was a far more recent and even more remarkable recording by John Holloway, also of Biber violin sonatas, on BBC Radio 3 on Thursday February 5th.

 John Holloway: Change The World Without Taking Power, University of Michigan Press
In this book, John Holloway asks how we can reformulate our understanding of revolution as the struggle against power, not for power.
John Holloway opens up the theoretical debate, reposing some of the basic concepts of Marxism in a critical development of the subversive Marxist tradition represented by Adorno, Bloch and Lukacs, amongst others, and grounded in a rethinking of Marx's concept of 'fetishisation'-- how doing is transformed into being.
The struggle for radical change, Holloway argues, far from being marginalised, is becoming more and more embedded in our everyday lives.

 redFlags : John Holloway's "Change the World Without Taking Power"
John Holloway's book, Change the World Without Taking Power, has been getting some pretty heavy promotion inside the "permanent opposition." After the post-Seattle glow of the "new radicalism" was dashed by the realpolitik of September 11, the "movement of movements" hasn't really been moving.
Holloway has done a real service by synthesizing that very particular melange of romanticized failure, casual anti-communism, utopian longing, rhetorical self-reflexiveness and moral sympathy with the oppressed -- all filtered through a shimmering gauze of pragmatic haplessness.
Holloway says that the state is inherently a tool of capitalism whether social democrats, populists or communists run things, which is why the left should leave all state related things to them.
