2009–Senior Seminar, Ives, Blues, Porter
James Hepokoski Spring 2009 Music 458: Ives, Blues, Porter Visions of America: Competing concepts of musical style and purpose in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century. We examine some stylistic and cultural bases of both “art” and “popular” music and their often uneasy interrelationships. This is neither a survey course nor one concerned with mastering a body of facts. Nor is it preoccupied with coming to aesthetic value judgments. Instead, it is a course in applying critical thinking and analysis to some familiar musical styles basic to the American experience: asking hard questions of differing early- and mid-twentieth-century repertories. Areas to be examined include: 1) Ives (selected songs, Concord Sonata, Second Symphony); 2) early blues (Bessie Smith, Charley Patton, Robert Johnson, and others), including samples of African-American recorded precedents and related genres; 3) Broadway and popular song—including a brief look at Jerome Kern (selected numbers from Show Boat) followed by a closer study of Cole Porter (Anything Goes). Some main questions to be faced are: What aesthetic/contextual/analytical tools do we need to think more deeply about differing pieces of music that spring from or respond to markedly differing/diverse American subcultures? What are our presuppositions in listening to any of these musics, and to what extent might we profit by examining these presuppositions critically? The course will also make use of resources in Yale’s music collection—most notably the Charles Ives Papers and The Cole Porter Collection. We shall also be concerned with original recordings from the 1920s and 1930s.

MSNC 732 Richard Guy Walton Collection
Richard Guy Walton Collection, MS/NC 732 1 Catalog, with Annotated Index of Names & Genealogical Addendum prepared by Anthony Shafton, 2018–21 Catalog Introduction Richard Guy Walton (1914–2005) was an artist, photographer and writer. He experimented with many styles of painting over a long career, and is considered Nevada’s preeminent abstract artist of the twentieth century. Walton was born in San Francisco, grew up in Fresno and Stockton, and came to Reno in 1929 to live with his briefly remarried mother. He gained the better part of his art education at Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles before returning to Reno to join the Federal Art Project (FAP) of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) under Robert Cole Caples, who became a friend. In 1938 he married Marie Jeanne Etcheberry, daughter of John P. Etcheberry, Basque sheepman, and Louise Larralde Etcheberry, proprietors of Reno’s Santa Fe Hotel. When Walton and Marie Jeanne separated in 1958, Walton moved to Virginia City. He married his second wife Vivian Diane Washburn, daughter of his friend Mary VanderHoeven, in 1963. They lived in Virginia City until 2003 when they were forced by his illnesses to move down the “hill.” The Nevada Historical Society’s Richard Guy Walton Collection, MS/NC 732, comprises 30 boxes of materials plus 2 artworks. The first 12 boxes and the artworks were gifted by the artist to the NHS by a deed dated December 22, 2000. Of these boxes, Boxes 1 through 3 hold voice recordings by Walton, while Boxes 4 through 12 hold documents, letters, manuscripts (typescripts), clippings, photographs, catalogs, magazines, books and miscellaneous objects.

Comedy Tonight! by Joshua S
Comedy Tonight! By Joshua S. Ritter, Goodspeed Musicals Education Director We can trace the roots of the musical A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum to the esteemed ancient Roman playwright Titus Maccius Plautus, born in Sarsina, Umbria around 254 B.C. It is difficult to determine Plautus's personal contribution, as all of his plays were adaptations of Greek productions that did not survive the ages. There is evidence, however, that he derived his works from plays belonging to the Greek New Comedy style. Plays of this genre portrayed the carefree life of the prosperous youth of Athens and their ceaseless desire for riches to purchase the company of concubines. Greeks considered plays of that style "clean" compared to those from the Old Comedy genre, which were often full of obscene gags and expressions. Surely, Plautus could never have conceived that three of his plays (Pseudolus, Miles Gloriosus, and Mostellaria) would transform into one of the most hilarious and rollicking musicals ever produced. Yet Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart did a remarkable job taking Plautus’s ancient works and weaving them into what some consider the best book associated with any Stephen Sondheim (Composer and Lyricist) collaboration. More than two thousand years after Plautus, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum continues to receive wide spread acclaim from critics and audiences throughout the world. Stephen Sondheim made his Broadway debut as a composer/lyricist working with Gelbart and Shevelove on the original Broadway production and commented on their work as follows: “The book is vastly underrated.

There's 'Comedy Tonight' at Local Theatre
There’s ‘Comedy Tonight’ at local theatre Posted by TBN Editor On 07/10/2015 LEXINGTON PARK, MD - The Newtowne Players’ (TNP) production of “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum,” is based on a book written by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart, and includes music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. The show’s opening was scheduled for Friday, July 10 and runs through Aug. 2 at the Three Notch Theatre in Lexington Park. This bawdy musical opened on Broadway in May 1962 and closed after 964 performances in August 1964, winning several Tonys along the way. It enjoyed subsequent Broadway revivals in 1972 and 1996, in additional to West End revivals. The 1966 film starred the musical’s original lead—Zero Mostel. Reportedly, Phil Silvers had turned down the lead role of Pseudolus on Broadway but he did play that part in the 1972 revival, which he performed wearing his signature glasses. In the 1966 movie, Silvers played the role of Marcus Lycus. Milton Berle had also passed up the role of Pseudolus which ended up going to Mostel. The movie saw both Mostel and Jack Gilford reprising their Broadway roles. Forum marked Stephen Sondheim’s first Broadway musical for music and lyrics. The musical’s best-known song is “Comedy Tonight”. If the Three Notch Theatre were eligible for Tony awards, Zeke Poiro, as the Newtowne Players’ indefatigable Pseudolus, would surely be a contender. Poiro is a Navy test pilot, familiar to local audiences as part of Sotterley’s Ghostwalk and for his supporting and cameos roles in NTP’s Arsenic and Old Lace and Little Shop of Horrors.
