  • ESO Highnotes November 2020
    HighNotes is brought to you by the Evanston Symphony Orchestra for the senior members of our community who must of necessity isolate more because of COVID-!9. The current pandemic has also affected all of us here at the ESO, and we understand full well the frustration of not being able to visit with family and friends or sing in soul-renewing choirs or do simple, familiar things like choosing this apple instead of that one at the grocery store. We of course miss making music together, which is especially difficult because Musical Notes and Activities for Seniors this fall marks the ESO’s 75th anniversary – our Diamond Jubilee. While we had a fabulous season of programs planned, we haven’t from the Evanston Symphony Orchestra been able to perform in a live concert since February so have had to push the hold button on all live performances for the time being. th However, we’re making plans to celebrate our long, lively, award- Happy 75 Anniversary, ESO! 2 winning history in the spring. Until then, we’ll continue to bring you music and musical activities in these issues of HighNotes – or for Aaron Copland An American Voice 4 as long as the City of Evanston asks us to do so! O’Connor Appalachian Waltz 6 HighNotes always has articles on a specific musical theme plus a variety of puzzles and some really bad jokes and puns. For this issue we’re focusing on “Americana,” which seems appropriate for Gershwin Porgy and Bess 7 November, when we come together as a country to exercise our constitutional right and duty to vote for candidates of our choice Bernstein West Side Story 8 and then to gather with our family and friends for Thanksgiving and completely spoil a magnificent meal by arguing about politics… ☺ Tate Music of Native Americans 9 But no politics here, thank you! “Bygones” features things that were big in our childhoods, but have now all but disappeared.

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

  • Individuele Cultuurgerichte Muziektherapie.Pdf
    Samenvatting Teneinde antwoord te vinden op de vraag wat de meerwaarde is van geïndividualiseerde, cultuurgerichte muziektherapie bij (licht dementerende) ouderen uit het voormalig Nederlands-Indië is in deze scriptie allereerst uitvoerig stilgestaan bij de historische, sociale en culturele achtergronden van deze doelgroep. Vervolgens zijn de muziekstijlen uit deze voormalige Nederlandse kolonie beschreven. Met gebruikmaking van deze kennis èn literatuuronderzoek is gezocht naar de meest geschikte muziektherapeutische methodiek om bij deze populatie in te kunnen zetten. Om de beoogde methodiek aan de praktijk te toetsen is een verkennend onderzoek verricht waarbij een geselecteerd aantal deelnemers (n=12), behorende bij de doelgroep, gedurende 12 weken aan geïndividualiseerde, cultuurgerichte muziektherapie is onderworpen. Met behulp van de GIP-observatie-vragenlijsten (Gedragsobservatieschaal Intramurale Psychogeriatrie) zijn de resultaten van een drietal metingen (voormeting, tussenmeting en eindmetingen) in kaart gebracht. Uit de analyse van de GIP-scores is geen eenduidig effect gevonden. De conclusie is dan ook dat uit kwantitatieve gevalsbeschrijvingen de meerwaarde van geïndividualiseerde, cultuurgerichte muziektherapie niet duidelijk aan te tonen is, terwijl dit uit kwalitatieve gevalsbeschrijvingen wel het geval is. Tenslotte wordt aanbevolen om een soortgelijk onderzoek te herhalen waarbij een aanzienlijk groter aantal deelnemers, verschillende methodieken en meerdere variabelen worden betrokken. Abstract In order to find an answer to the question what the benefits are of individualized, culture-centred music therapy with (slightly dement) elderly from the former Dutch Indies, this thesis starts with the description of the historical, social and cultural backgrounds of these people. Next, the different music-styles from this former Dutch colony are described. This knowledge, combined with a thorough literature research, has been used to determine which music therapy method is most effective to treat this target group.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.

  • Waukegan Park District and City of Waukegan Celebrate Jack Benny's
    PRESS RELEASE Waukegan Park District and City of Waukegan Celebrate Jack Benny’s Birthday Waukegan, Illinois (February 9, 2021) – The Waukegan Park District and City of Waukegan invite the community to celebrate Jack Benny’s 88th “39th” Birthday and Valentine’s Day with a card shower. Starting on Friday, February 12, individuals can tie a card to a tree, bush, and the fence at Jack Benny Plaza, located at the southwest corner of Genesee Street and Clayton Street in Downtown Waukegan. Jack Benny, born on February 14, 1894, was a comedic icon in the entertainment world, with a highly successful career in radio, television, and movies. Benny grew up in Waukegan, where he began his journey to stardom by playing the violin in local vaudeville theatres and school orchestras. 39 is a symbolic number associated with Jack Benny, as he decided to be 39 years old forever. The running joke got started the year after Benny celebrated his “first” 39th birthday on air in 1933. Fans were amused, and the Jack Benny Program celebrated Benny’s “39th” birthday every year. After leaving Waukegan as an eighteen-year-old to follow his dreams of becoming an entertainer, Jack Benny never forgot his hometown. To this day, Waukegan honors their “favorite son” through numerous tributes including the City of Waukegan’s Jack Benny Plaza, Waukegan Park District’s Jack Benny Center for the Arts, 39 Jack Benny Drive in Bowen Park, and Waukegan Public School’s Jack Benny Middle School, home of the 39ers and the only school in the country named after a comedian.

Sonny Rollins celebrated his 80th birthday on stage at the Beacon Theater on Friday, September 10. No one could guess, listening to Sonny, or watching him command the stage without a break for two and one half hours, that the Colossus of the saxophone was entering his ninth decade.
