At first, Kay’s mother was hesitant, but her aunt had a business sense and saw that there was a future for Kay, insisting that she enter a number of amateur contests, leading to her performances at radio stations in Dallas and Memphis and finally being hired by famous violin­ ist and bandleader Joe Venuti whose guidance helped her achieve fame. She told us about her work with the Bob Crosby Band, her one week stint subbing for Marion Hutton with Glenn Miller at Glen Island Casino and her years with the Charlie Barnet Band, where she recalled pressing Kay Starr Capitol CD cover the band ’ s uniforms as well as being a featured vocalist. Jimmy Dorsey’s band. That why they didn’t have her. The Scene But they had every other girl singer. A girl singer they did not need.

    Ted Heath (Bandleader) from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia

    Ted Heath (bandleader) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Background information Birth name George Edward Heath Also known as Ted Born 30 March 1902 Wandsworth, South London, England Died 18 November 1969 (aged 67) Virginia Water, Surrey, England Genres Big Band, jazz Occupation(s) Bandleader, composer Instruments Trombone Years active 1916–1969 Labels Decca, London George Edward "Ted" Heath (30 March 1902 – 18 November 1969) was a British musician and big band leader. He led Britain's greatest post-war big band recording more than 100 albums which sold over 20 million copies. Considered the most successful band in Britain during the 1950s, it remained in existence as a ghost band long after Heath died, surviving in such a form until 2000. Musical beginnings After playing tenor horn at the age of six, encouraged by his father, the leader of the Wandsworth Town Brass Band, Heath later switched to trombone. Earning a living for his family in the post-war years he, and his brother Harold with three other musicians, formed a band that played to commuters outside London Bridge Station before winding their way along the streets in London to a location outside the Queen’s Hall Gardens venue. It was here that Heath’s professional career began as he was spotted on the street and asked to play with the Jack Hylton Band who had a residence there. He did not last long, not having the experience required, but it gave him the ambition to pursue a career as a professional musician. 1920s His first real band gig was with an American band on tour in Europe – the Southern Syncopation Orchestra – which had an engagement in Vienna, Austria and needed a trombone player.

    PERFORMANCES IN SWING: A CULTURAL HISTORY OF WOMEN SINGERS OF BIG BANDS, 1930s-1950s A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES AUGUST 2018 By Jeanette Hall Dissertation Committee: Mari Yoshihara, Chairperson Elizabeth Colwill Jonna Eagle Vernadette V. Gonzalez Richard C. Rath Keywords: big band, singer, jazz studies, music history, intersectionality, performance Acknowledgements This dissertation could not have come to fruition without the help and support of many people. First, I would like to thank Mari Yoshihara for her guidance and mentorship in many capacities throughout my graduate career. She challenged me to think deeply and critically about music and storytelling. I would also like to thank Elizabeth Colwill, who expanded my thinking in the realm of performance studies and who always offered support and enthusiasm for my projects. My gratitude also extends to Jonna Eagle who gave feedback from near and far. Thank you to Richard C. Rath for his guidance and encouragement with my projects, and for always reminding me to keep listening to the sounds of the music. Thank you to Vernadette Gonzalez for her feedback and mentorship, and for her encouragement in those moments when writing a dissertation felt like “running uphill in the rain.” I would also like to express my gratitude to the American Studies department at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa for the institutional support. Many, many thanks to my writing group—Eriza Bareng, Yu Jung Lee, Kevin Lim, Yanli Luo, Sanae Nakatani, Stacy Nojima, Yuka Polovina, and Yohei Sekiguchi—who gave much support and feedback throughout the writing process.
