  • 1987 a Gift of Music Kennedy Center Honors
    Alexandria Harmonizers 70th Anniversary Throwback Thursdays No. 21 – 1987 A Gift of Music Kennedy Center Honors Gala Performances In the year following our first international championship, we received many invitations to perform on shows around the area. This was a welcome surprise for the chapter and we would realize only later that it represented a predictable trend associated directly with that singular contest achievement. In late 1987 the Harmonizers were invited to participate in the Kennedy Center Honors Gala by Ray Charles, the Director of the Ray Charles Singers (not the soul singer), who was responsible for the vocal music used during the gala. Charles felt it would be appropriate to feature barbershop harmony in a tribute to Perry Como who was once a barber and had sung in a barbershop quartet. The plan developed for us to sing a pure barbershop song, “When You Were Sweet Sixteen,” and excerpts from several Como songs. We recorded the music on Friday for we would “lip-sync” during the performance. Walter Cronkite introduced us as the “Alexandria Harmonizers, Champion Barbershop Singers.” At this point, only Vaudeville appeared, after which large vertical panels behind them started moving, revealing one part of the chorus after another. As the final panel moved away, disclosing all 100 men, Nancy Reagan reportedly leaned forward with a big smile and said “Wow!” There were admiring comments as we went off stage: Rosemary Clooney: “I loved your sound”; Jimmy Stewart: “That was really great!”; Lucille Ball: “I adore your sound”; Angela Lansbury: “That was sensational! You really got ‘em.” At show’s end, the Harmonizers came singing down the aisles and joined the dramatic finale.

  • La Cultura Italiana
    LA CULTURA ITALIANA PERRY COMO (1912-2001) This month’s essay looks at the life of another Italian-American popular music artist of the post-World War II era. Famous for his relaxed vocals, cardigan sweaters, and television Christ- mas specials, he was the charming Italian-American whose name became synonymous with “mellow” as he performed through seven decades, starting in the 1930s. His idol, Bing Crosby, once called him “the man who invented casual.” PIERINO RONALD “PERRY” COMO was born on May 12, 1912 in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. (This month would have been his 107th birthday, and, coincidentally, the 18th anniversary of his death). He was the seventh of 13 children and the first Ameri- can-born child of Pietro Como and Lucia Travaglini, who had both immigrated to the United States in 1910 from Palena, a small town in the Province of Chieti in the Abruzzo region of Italy. (He used to point out to people that he was the seventh son of a seventh son and that this was a good omen in Italian culture). Like many children of Italian immigrants (including my own father), Perry did not begin speaking English until he entered school, since the Comos spoke only Italian at home. Pietro had bought a second-hand organ for $3 soon after they had arrived in America. As soon as Perry was able to toddle, he would head to the instrument, pump the bellows, and play by ear music he had heard. Pietro worked in the Standard Tin Plate factory in Canonsburg, a small town in the coal-mining region that was located 18 miles southwest of Pittsburgh.

  • In This Issue: Classic Stine
    Volume 36 • Issue 1 January 2008 Journal of the New Jersey Jazz Society Dedicated to the performance, promotion and preservation of jazz. BUCKY!By Tony Mottola Jersey Jazz Editor n the entertainment world some artists rise to such I iconic stature that just their first names suffice for instant recognition. Frank, Bing, Ella and Elvis come readily to mind. And in the world of jazz guitar there is only one “Bucky.” Born John Pizzarelli, he was nicknamed Buckskin by his father, and began, like so many other guitarists of his generation, playing the banjo. At 17, the Paterson native toured with the Vaughn Monroe Band as a guitarist, and he returned to the band in 1946 after service in the US Army. In the early 1950s, Bucky came back to New Jersey and quickly established himself as one of the most in-demand session players in New York’s then bustling recording studios. Concurrently, he worked as a staff musician at the NBC Television Network, where he played on The Tonight Show,Mitch Miller’s Sing Along With Mitch and many other broadcasts. All the while Bucky kept up a breathtaking schedule of live performances — here, there and everywhere — prompting his friend and frequent playing partner, guitarist George Barnes, to dub him “The Whirling Dervish.” Recently, the peripatetic Pizzarelli stayed put long enough to give an in-depth interview to Jersey Jazz’s Schaen Fox and we’re pleased to bring that to you in this month’s issue on page 16. JJ Bucky Pizzarelli plays banjo at a Highlights in Jazz Children’s Jazz Concert for the 1976 Newport-New York Jazz Festival.
