  • The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family
    Chapter One The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family The 1980–1985 Seasons ♦◊♦ As over forty-four thousand Pirates fans headed to Three Rivers Sta- dium for the home opener of the 1980 season, they had every reason to feel optimistic about the Pirates and Pittsburgh sports in general. In the 1970s, their Pirates had captured six divisional titles, two National League pennants, and two World Series championships. Their Steelers, after decades of futility, had won four Super Bowls in the 1970s, while the University of Pittsburgh Panthers led by Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett added to the excitement by winning a collegiate national championship in football. There was no reason for Pittsburgh sports fans to doubt that the 1980s would bring even more titles to the City of Champions. After the “We Are Family” Pirates, led by Willie Stargell, won the 1979 World Series, the ballclub’s goals for 1980 were “Two in a Row and Two Million Fans.”1 If the Pirates repeated as World Series champions, it would mark the first time that a Pirates team had accomplished that feat in franchise history. If two million fans came out to Three Rivers Stadium to see the Pirates win back-to-back World Series titles, it would 3 © 2017 University of Pittsburgh Press. All rights reserved. break the attendance record of 1,705,828, set at Forbes Field during the improbable championship season of 1960. The offseason after the 1979 World Series victory was a whirlwind of awards and honors, highlighted by World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) Willie Stargell and Super Bowl MVP Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers appearing on the cover of the December 24, 1979, Sports Illustrated as corecipients of the magazine’s Sportsman of the Year Award.

  • New Morning for the World: a Landmark Commission by the Eastman School of Music
    New Morning for the World: A Landmark Commission by the Eastman School of Music Introductory reflections by Paul J. Burgett University of Rochester Vice President Robert Freeman, Director of the Eastman School of Music from 1972 to 1996, is an avid baseball fan. He is fond of recounting that he became especially impressed by the Pittsburgh Pirates while watching the 1979 World Series at home, with his wife Carol, in which the Pirates, trailing the Baltimore Orioles three games to one, rebounded and won the Series in game seven. Bob marveled especially at the grit, inspiring spirit, elegant demeanor, and warm mellifluous voice of the Pirates’ iconic captain and that year’s MVP, Willie Stargell. The wheels of invention began to turn in Freeman’s mind. If Stargell and his teammates could fill a baseball stadium with 59,000 fans for a game, he mused, might Stargell, whose very gracious manner and resonant baritone voice, together with a Pulitzer Prize-winning composer from the Eastman School’s faculty, collaborate in a musical masterpiece to fill American concert halls that would draw thousands of baseball and music enthusiasts? And could they parlay their collective expertise and visibility to draw attention to one of the most critical social movements of the time, the Civil Rights movement? At Freeman’s initiative, AT&T commissioned Joseph Schwantner, professor of composition at Eastman, to create a major work for orchestra and narrator, the texts of which were taken from speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Thus was New Morning for the World born. The piece received its world premiere in 1983 to a full house at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C.
