Black US Army bands and their bandmasters in World War I Peter M. Lefferts This essay sketches the story of the bands and bandmasters of the twenty seven new black army regiments which served in the U.S. Army in World War I. They underwent rapid mobilization and demobilization over 1917-1919, and were for the most part unconnected by personnel or traditions to the long-established bands of the four black regular U.S. Army regiments that preceded them and continued to serve after them. Pressed to find sufficient numbers of willing and able black band leaders, the army turned to schools and the entertainment industry for the necessary talent.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • “In the Mood”—Glenn Miller (1939) Added to the National Recording Registry: 2004 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “In the Mood”—Glenn Miller (1939) Added to the National Recording Registry: 2004 Essay by Cary O’Dell Glenn Miller Original release label “Sun Valley Serenade” Though Glenn Miller and His Orchestra’s well-known, robust and swinging hit “In the Mood” was recorded in 1939 (and was written even earlier), it has since come to symbolize the 1940s, World War II, and the entire Big Band Era. Its resounding success—becoming a hit twice, once in 1940 and again in 1943—and its frequent reprisal by other artists has solidified it as a time- traversing classic. Covered innumerable times, “In the Mood” has endured in two versions, its original instrumental (the specific recording added to the Registry in 2004) and a version with lyrics. The music was written (or written down) by Joe Garland, a Tin Pan Alley tunesmith who also composed “Leap Frog” for Les Brown and his band. The lyrics are by Andy Razaf who would also contribute the words to “Ain’t Misbehavin’” and “Honeysuckle Rose.” For as much as it was an original work, “In the Mood” is also an amalgamation, a “mash-up” before the term was coined. It arrived at its creation via the mixture and integration of three or four different riffs from various earlier works. Its earliest elements can be found in “Clarinet Getaway,” from 1925, recorded by Jimmy O’Bryant, an Arkansas bandleader. For his Paramount label instrumental, O’Bryant was part of a four-person ensemble, featuring a clarinet (played by O’Bryant), a piano, coronet and washboard. Five years later, the jazz piece “Tar Paper Stomp” by Joseph “Wingy” Manone, from 1930, beget “In the Mood’s” signature musical phrase.

  • A Service of Thanksgiving to Mark the 70Th Anniversary of Ve
    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF THANKSGIVING TO MARK THE 70 TH ANNIVERSARY OF VE DAY Sunday 10 th May 2015 11.00 am FOREWORD Welcome to Westminster Abbey for this service of thanksgiving and commemoration on the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe. The Abbey played a full part on the day itself. After making his public broadcast officially announcing Germany’s total surrender, the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill MP, went to the House of Commons to make a short address and then moved that the House attend at the Church of St Margaret’s, Westminster, the Parish Church of the House of Commons, to ‘give humble and reverent thanks to almighty God for our deliverance from the threat of German domination.’ The House then rose and followed the Speaker to the Church. In Westminster Abbey itself, on VE Day, short services of thanksgiving were held every hour from 9.00 am to 10.00 pm. An estimated 25,000 people attended during the day, with the Lord Chancellor and House of Lords attending at 3.00 pm. The short services offered ‘high praise and thanksgiving to the God of all mercies for the success which He has granted to us and to our Allies: for the faith which has upheld us through the years of danger and suffering; for the skill of our leaders and the valour and steadfastness of sailors, soldiers and airmen; for the hope that we are about to enter upon a righteous and abiding peace; for the holy memory and high example of that great company of men and women, known and unknown, whose faith and courage God has inspired and used.’ A service was also held on the following Sunday, 13th May, when the standards of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa were laid on the High Altar to symbolise the loyalty of the whole Empire during the war.

Musical entertainment played by military musicians, whether aimed at the local populace or the rank-and-file soldier, is typically a tool of soft power, designed variously to enforce a sense of authority, discipline and order, to allay suspicion and hostility, or to boost morale and solidarity in situations of tension and conflict. But for our purposes here, we will concentrate specifically on those performances that can be described as formal entertainment - music to accompany dinners and dances, and concert performances of one kind or another. The regimental band became a routine feature of the British army in the late eighteenth century.
