  • 07 – Spinning the Record
    VI. THE STEREO ERA In 1954, a timid and uncertain record industry took the plunge to begin investing heav- ily in stereophonic sound. They were not timid and uncertain because they didn’t know if their system would work – as we have seen, they had already been experimenting with and working the kinks out of stereo sound since 1932 – but because they still weren’t sure how to make a home entertainment system that could play a stereo record. Nevertheless, they all had their various equipment in place, and so that year they began tentatively to make recordings using the new medium. RCA started, gingerly, with “alternate” stereo tapes of monophonic recording sessions. Unfortunately, since they were still uncertain how the results would sound on home audio, they often didn’t mark and/or didn’t file the alternate stereo takes properly. As a result, the stereo versions of Charles Munch’s first stereo recordings – Berlioz’ “Roméo et Juliette” and “Symphonie Fanastique” – disappeared while others, such as Fritz Reiner’s first stereo re- cordings (Strauss’ “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 1 with Ar- thur Rubinstein) disappeared for 20 years. Oddly enough, their prize possession, Toscanini, was not recorded in stereo until his very last NBC Symphony performance, at which he suf- fered a mental lapse while conducting. None of the performances captured on that date were even worth preserving, let alone issuing, and so posterity lost an opportunity to hear his last half-season with NBC in the excellent sound his artistry deserved. Columbia was even less willing to pursue stereo.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Media – Leading Edges, 601.483.9810, [email protected] Performance – MSU Riley Center Box Office, 601.696.2200, [email protected] ‘Lonesome Traveler: The Concert’ Celebrates Folk Music Roots at MSU Riley Center MERIDIAN, MS –“Lonesome Traveler: The Concert,” with featured guest star Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary, will take an MSU Riley Center audience on a musical journey down the many streams of American folk music on Saturday, October 13, at 7:30 p.m. The multimedia concert, based on an acclaimed off-Broadway musical, is the second show in the Riley Center’s 2018-2019 Fall/Winter Performing Arts Series. “Lonesome Traveler” celebrates the music of such great folk and folk-rock artists as Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, Pete Seeger and The Weavers, The Limeliters, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell and Simon & Garfunkel. It also includes a special tribute to Leonard Cohen. Charismatic young singers and multi-instrumentalists re-create the sounds and rekindle the idealistic spirit of the 1950s and ’60s folk revival. “Paul, Mary and I owed a great debt to the pioneers of folk who came before us,” Yarrow said. “It’s a joy for me to see a new generation carrying forward the traditions of folk music.” Members of every generation can sing along together on such warmly remembered hits as “If I Had a Hammer,” “Puff, the Magic Dragon,” “This Land Is Your Land,” “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “Turn! Turn! Turn!” “The Times They Are a-Changin’” and “Hallelujah.” It’s all folk music – music of the people, ever evolving, connecting us to our past and shaping our future.

  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

A string of best-selling albums and frequent television appearances quickly made The Limeliters a household name. http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?m=1113773831472&ca=0b2f1e83-e20e-4bde-b547-6e2b6cb97a45 1/3 2/12/2019 City of Rancho Mirage Sponsors McCallum Theatre Events for 2019 Season In the ensuing years, the lineup has featured several spectacularly talented new members but The Limeliters have never deviated from the integrity of the fabulous sound that they pioneered. With their energy and enthusiasm undiminished and undaunted, current members Don Marovich, Andy Corwin, and Gaylan Taylor remain as exciting an act as the genre has produced. Don Marovich is a journeyman musician who has played professionally since 1975 with his early roots in barbershop singing. In addition to being a singer/songwriter, he also plays guitar, banjo and mandolin. Bass player Andy Corwin is a performer and songwriter with an offbeat sense of humor.

  • Folk Music 1 Folk Music
    Folk music 1 Folk music Folk music Béla Bartók recording Slovak peasant singers in 1908 Traditions List of folk music traditions Musicians List of folk musicians Instruments Folk instruments Folk music is an English term encompassing both traditional folk music and contemporary folk music. The term originated in the 19th century. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted by mouth, as music of the lower classes, and as music with unknown composers. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. This music is also referred to as traditional music and, in US, as "roots music". Starting in the mid-20th century a new form of popular folk music evolved from traditional folk music. This process and period is called the (second) folk revival and reached a zenith in the 1960s. The most common name for this new form of music is also "folk music", but is often called "contemporary folk music" or "folk revival music" to make the distinction.[1] This type of folk music also includes fusion genres such as folk rock, electric folk, and others. While contemporary folk music is a genre generally distinct from traditional folk music, it often shares the same English name, performers and venues as traditional folk music; even individual songs may be a blend of the two. Traditional folk music Definitions A consistent definition of traditional folk music is elusive. The terms folk music, folk song, and folk dance are comparatively recent expressions. They are extensions of the term folk lore, which was coined
