  • Gratitude… the Path to a Full Reboot! Psalm 100 Wilton Presbyterian Church Rev. Shannon White November 22, 2020 As I Began To
    Gratitude… The Path to a Full Reboot! Psalm 100 Wilton Presbyterian Church Rev. Shannon White November 22, 2020 As I began to write the sermon for this week, I awoke to no internet service. Ugh. I had three Zoom appointments, all before noon, and Peyton, my daughter, was to begin class on Zoom at 9am. Rebooting the cable box didn’t work. My guess was that the fierce storm from Sunday night was the cause. What to do? I had a choice… stew in frustration or reboot myself, in a sense, and go to plan B. At least we had power and heat. At least I have an office I can go to. At least I have my health and a job and the list could go on and on… So, I want to do something different this week… as we begin to talk about gratitude as the path to resiliency, let’s start with a breathing exercise. You might call it a chance for your own reboot~~ Take a deep breath in….and let it out Take another breath in and let it out This time breathe in a sense of peace… and breathe out any stress in your body Breathe in peace and… breathe out fear Let’s do that one again…. This time breathe in a sense of compassion for yourself and breathe out judgement Breathe in God’s presence and breathe out any feeling of disconnection Breathe in a your belovedness to God and breathe out any doubt…. Breathe… breathe in love and breathe out skepticism Breathe in gratitude and breathe out anything blocking you… fear or anger or apathy As you continue to breathe, rest or relax into that breath… knowing that the source of your breath is always near and knows you and loves you more intimately than you know yourself Be at one… all is well in this very moment.

  • Broadway and Tin Pan Alley Introductory Essay
    Broadway and Tin Pan Alley Introductory Essay “Way Down Upon the Hudson River: Tin Pan Alley's New York Triumph” Rachel Rubin, Professor of American Studies, University of Massachusetts Broadway in the 1920s was a showcase for the sweeping changes transforming American culture in the early 20th century, including new roles for women, the mixing of social classes in new settings like Prohibition-era speakeasies and creative innovation by African Americans in jazz clubs and music halls. Sons of immigrants from Europe -- including the Gershwins, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern and Harold Arlen -- made up a large percentage of the new word and music smiths writing for Tin Pan Alley and Broadway’s musical revues. Their syncopated rhythms borrowed from the jazz craze and their lyrics helped create a vibrant, witty new American argot. Tin Pan Alley and Broadway contributed such classic standards as “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” (Berlin), “I Got Rhythm” (Gershwin and Gershwin), “Ol’Man River,” (Kern and Hammerstein), “Stormy Weather” (Arlen and Koehler), “Ain’t Misbehavin’” (Razaf, Waller, Brooks), “Anything Goes” (Porter) and many more. These songs formed the musical backdrop of an era. The production of these songs also became big business. The first major book written about Tin Pan Alley was published in 1930 by Harvard professor Isaac Goldberg, and it was subtitled “A Chronicle of the American Popular Music Racket.” Goldberg’s humorous use of the word “racket” captured something about the origins of the name “Tin Pan Alley” given to the music composed by poorly-paid songwriters banging away in cubicles in downtown New York City on cheap pianos.

  • Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget
    Chapter 1 Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget In This Chapter ▶ Gathering song ideas from anywhere ▶ Organizing and tracking your thoughts and inspirations ▶ Documenting your ideas his book is for everyone who shares the dream of harnessing the song- Twriting power we all have within. You’ve come to the right place if your heart keeps telling you to write a song, but your mind is uncertain as to the process of the craft or what’s required to create a really good song. You bought the right book if you’re wondering how to collect and organize your ideas. You have found the right resource if you have pieces of songs lying in notebooks and on countless cassettes but can’t seem to put the pieces together. This book is for you if you have racks of finished song demos but don’t know what to do next to get them heard. When you know the elements that make up a great song and how the pros go about writing one, you can get on the right path to creating one of your own. Unless you’re lucky enough to have fully finished songs come to you in your deepest dreams, or to somehow take dictation from the ghosts of Tin Pan Alley (the publishing area located in New York City in the 1930s and 1940s), most of us need to summon the forces, sources, reasons, and seasons that give us the necessary motivation to draw a song from our heart of hearts. Given that initial spark, you then need the best means of gathering those ideas, organizing them, putting them into form, and documenting them as they roll COPYRIGHTEDin — before it’s too late and they MATERIAL roll right out again! Have you ever noticed how you can remember a powerful dream just after you’ve awakened only for it to vanish into thin air in the light of day? Song ideas can be just as illusive.

  • Messages of American Popular Song to Women During World War II
    “I’m Doin’ It for Defense”: Messages of American Popular Song to Women during World War II A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Amy Brooks BM, Bob Jones University, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract World War II presented many new opportunities for American women. In this time of need, they were called upon to take an active part in the war effort, whether by means of working in a factory, growing a victory garden, or serving as a volunteer for wartime organizations. Women made great strides forward in areas such as the workforce and the military. The American popular song industry promoted these new roles for women. I have compiled over 150 songs from 1940 to1945 that relate to women’s roles during the World War II era. Of these songs, I have chosen a select number of songs that best demonstrate popular culture’s attitudes and actions towards women during the war. These songs can be divided into five categories: women in the military, women in the workforce, women’s war effort, women’s responsibilities to men in uniform, and women in the immediate post-war period. I have studied the representative songs by considering their lyrics to identify the objectives supported by the popular song industry. I took into consideration the venues in which they were presented and how these performances influenced their reception.
