THE CSRC ORAL HISTORIES SERIES The CSRC Oral Histories Series publishes the life narratives of prominent Chicano and Latino figures. The life narratives have been recorded and transcribed, and the interviewer and interviewee have reviewed and corrected the transcriptions prior to publication. These oral histories are often undertaken as part of a larger research project and in tandem with archival collections and library holdings. CSRC ORAL HISTORY SERIES PROJECTS L.A. Xicano documents the history of Chicana/o art in Los Angeles with a focus on artists, collectives, and art organizations. The project resulted in new museum and library exhibitions, public programs, archival collections, and scholarly publications. These efforts were part of the Getty Foundation initiative Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A., 1945–1980. The project received support from Getty Foundation, Annenberg Foundation, Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and California Community Foundation. Related support includes funding from Ralph M. Parsons Foundation, AltaMed Health Services Corporation, Entravision Communications Corporation, Walt Disney Company, and individual donors. A Ver: Revisioning Art History stems from the conviction that individual artists and their coherent bodies of work are the foundation for a meaningful and diverse art history. This book series explores the cultural, aesthetic, and historical contributions of Chicano, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, and other U.S. Latino artists. The A Ver project is made possible through the generous support of Getty Foundation, Ford Foundation, Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Joan Mitchell Foundation, JPMorgan Chase Foundation, and The Rockefeller Foundation. The LGBT and Mujeres Initiative seeks to increase archival and oral history holdings that document the Chicano/Latino presence in LGBT and women’s histories, the role of women and LGBT people in Chicano/ Latino histories, and the importance of gender, sexuality, and ethnicity in “mainstream” scholarly research and archival institutions. The project receives generous support from the Ford Foundation and individual donors. ARTISTS INTERVIEWED FOR THE L.A.

I just want to start, Johnny, with some really basic questions about when and where you were born. Johnny Gonzalez: I was born in 1943. June 20 of 1943, in Aguascalientes, Mexico, the birthplace and hometown of José Guadalupe Posada, which I’m very proud of, which I had no knowledge about for many, many years. And this has so much to do with the fact that I had so little knowledge on my culture. And my dad was Juan Gonzalez, he was a carpenter. And my mother Guadalupe Duarte Gonzalez, who was actually born in Arizona and at the age of seven went to Mexico, and then got married there. I’m the third of six siblings: the first was my brother Joe Gonzalez, the second was Rebecca Gonzalez, I was the third, Imelda Gonzalez was fourth—we were all born in Aguascalientes, and my younger sister, Ali- cia, was born here in the United States after we came here. So I came here at the age of four years old. And then we have a younger brother who’s about fifty years old, who was also born here in the United States. KD: Do you have any sense of why the family came? I mean, you’re awfully young, but maybe the told the story later? JG: Yeah. They came because my dad’s—my dad was actually self-employed, he had a cabinet shop, cabinet- making shop, and they robbed them, completely. Everything, they stole everything. I think all they left was a chisel that he found in the sawdust when he went back in. So there was no way of making any more money. And since my mother was a citizen of the United States, and my brother, Joe, the oldest, was also a citizen, because at that time, anybody born of a citizen outside the country, before the ’40s, was automati- cally a citizen. So my brother was automatically a citizen. My mother had a cousin here in—it was called Pio Pico, a little community between Montebello and Pico Rivera. So they decided first to move to Juárez, and then from there, my mom came over. They worked—actually, my mom worked a little while in Juárez, she used to come over the border and clean house for a lady, and so the lady, the family, was actually very nice people, and they actually helped her— the fact that she was already American, they sort of helped in setting up things so that she could be able to come over here. So she came over here with Joe, my brother. Joe was eight years old. And my mom decided to come over here and start fixing papers for the four of us which lived with my dad: my older sister, my two sisters, and myself. So she spent like six months working here, odd jobs, and suffering a lot, trying to get things going. And she was living with a cousin in Pio Pico. And in order to get my dad over here, she had to find a job for him first. So she found a job in construction for him. So that’s how he finally managed to come over here with the three of us. KD: Is that in ’47 then? JG: That was in ’49. KD: Oh, okay. So much after the war. 1 CSRC ORAL HISTORIES SERIES JG: Yeah, it was in ’49. Well, let’s see it could have been maybe ’48, because I was [five] years old. And so when we moved to Pio Pico, it turns out that Pio Pico was like a little ranch town, they had no paved streets, and of course there was no lawns or anything like that, that was totally unknown about at that time. But it was a little community which was maybe three blocks by two blocks long, just a little tiny area, and it was located right by Rosemead—Rosemead was a gigantic street for us—to me, I was a little kid, I was [five] years old, and it was so scary to go by Rosemead, because cars moved fast over there. And then we were separated from, I guess, other areas of Montebello because there was a river, a river went through there. But it was a lot of fun for us, being kids, living right by the river. And then there were orchards that—it just seemed like a long long distance, maybe a couple of miles or something, to get to Whittier Boulevard, and that’s where my mom struggled very much, because she got a job working in a sewing shop, downtown LA, so she had to walk, on her own, all across the orchards to get a bus on Whittier Boulevard. And that was a very difficult thing for her, [especially at night]. So she had to take like three buses to go all the way downtown, and then come back, [many times at night,] all the way being over there. Irma Núñez: How long was she alone before your dad came— JG: It was like six, seven months, somewhere around there. And her boss was very nice, Jewish owner of the sewing factory, but she used to mention, she spent a lot of time crying while she was working on her sew- ing, because she went so many months without seeing any of us, and he used to comfort her a lot.

Good afternoon, Bill, accompanied by his wife, Nancy. This interview is conducted by Anthony Brown with Ken Kimery. Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.

  • Ritchie Valens (Elementary School Version)
    Ritchie Valens (Elementary School Version) OVERVIEW ESSENTIAL QUESTION How did Ritchie Valens meld traditional Mexican music and Rock and Roll? OVERVIEW Ritchie Valens has become one of the most celebrated Rock and Roll musicians of the 1950s. His recording career lasted less than a year, cut short in February 1959, when he was killed in the same plane crash that took the lives of Rock and Roll star Buddy Holly and disc jockey/musician J.P. Richardson (better known as “The Big Bopper”). Valens released only two singles during his lifetime. The second, featuring the love ballad “Donna,” soared to No. 2 on the Billboard Pop singles chart and established Valens as a rising star. Newspaper accounts of his death referred to him as “a young sensation… rapidly becoming one of the hottest singing talents in the country,” and even “the next Elvis Presley.” But it was the B-side of that single, featuring the traditional Mexican wedding song “La Bamba,” that secured Valens’ legacy. The lyrics of the song were entirely in Spanish, sung over a tune that would have been immediately recognizable to most Mexican-Americans. Born Richard Valenzuela to a Mexican family in Southern California, Valens had played the song growing up and with various bands at school. His biographer reports that he may have been reluctant to record a Rock and Roll version of the song, both because he thought it might be disrespectful to the original and because he didn’t speak Spanish very well. But his recording, driven by Latin percussion, enjoyed commercial success—particularly for a single’s B-side— cracking the Top 40 and peaking at no.

    Journal of Science and Arts Supplement at No. 2(13), pp. 157-161, 2010 THE CLARINET IN THE CHAMBER MUSIC OF THE 20TH CENTURY FELIX CONSTANTIN GOLDBACH Valahia University of Targoviste, Faculty of Science and Arts, Arts Department, 130024, Targoviste, Romania Abstract. The beginning of the 20th century lay under the sign of the economic crises, caused by the great World Wars. Along with them came state reorganizations and political divisions. The most cruel realism, of the unimaginable disasters, culminating with the nuclear bombs, replaced, to a significant extent, the European romanticism and affected the cultural environment, modifying viewpoints, ideals, spiritual and philosophical values, artistic domains. The art of the sounds developed, being supported as well by the multiple possibilities of recording and world distribution, generated by the inventions of this epoch, an excessively technical one, the most important ones being the cinema, the radio, the television and the recordings – electronic or on tape – of the creations and interpretations. Keywords: chamber music of the 20th century, musical styles, cultural tradition. 1. INTRODUCTION Despite all the vicissitudes, music continued to ennoble the human souls. The study of the instruments’ construction features, of the concert halls, the investigation of the sound and the quality of the recordings supported the formation of a series of high-quality performers and the attainment of high performance levels. The international contests organized on instruments led to a selection of the values of the interpretative art. So, the exceptional professional players are no longer rarities. 2. DISCUSSIONS The economic development of the United States of America after the two World Wars, the cultural continuity in countries with tradition, such as England and France, the fast restoration of the West European states, including Germany, represented conditions that allowed the flourishing of musical education.
