  • 2021 Spring/Summer Series
    Dear Patrons, Welcome back to live events at the Bologna Performing Arts Center! We are excited to have artists returning to our stage, and look forward to inviting you to attend shows again. Things will be a little different this spring and summer. Due to the ongoing nature of the pandemic, we are going to put each show on sale individually, about 4-6 weeks before each event. This allows us to make sure we are following the most recent executive orders, including audience capacity guidelines. Please refer to the on-sale dates for each artist in this brochure. Seating has been reduced for our Spring/Summer Series, and is being sold in staggered pairs and groups. We ask that you purchase all of the seats in the grouping to ensure that patrons are comfortable being seated together. At this time, all patrons are required to wear masks during their visit to the Bologna Performing Arts Center. All of our staff and volunteers will also wear masks, and do daily temperature checks and symptom monitoring. We ask you to please monitor your own health, and stay home if you do not feel well. We have also increased our cleaning and sanitation regimens. We have invested in new cleaning systems to ensure that the theater is totally sanitized prior to every performance. We encourage you to call us at 662-846-4625 or visit our website www.bolognapac.com for the latest health and safety operating guidelines prior to your visit. We are eager to resume presenting live events with this Spring/Summer Series.

  • 334 XIII. Revivals and Recreations; The
    XIII. Revivals and Recreations; The Sociology of Jazz By the early 1970s, as we have seen, jazz was in a state of stylistic chaos. This was one reason why the first glimmers of “smooth jazz” came about as both an antidote to fusion and an answer to “outside jazz.” But classical music was also in a state of chaos. The majority of listen- ers had become sick of listening to the modern music that had come to dominate the field since the end of World War II and had only become more abrasive and less communicative to a lay audience. In addition, the influx of young television executives in that period had not only led to the cancellation of many well-loved programs who they felt only appealed to an older audience demographic, but also the chopping out of virtually all arts programming. Such long-running programs as The Voice of Firestone and The Bell Telephone Hour were already gone by then. Leonard Bernstein had been replaced at the New York Philharmonic by Michael Tilson Thomas, an excellent conductor but not a popular communicator, and thus CBS’s “Young People’s Con- certs” no longer had the same appeal. In addition, both forms of music, classical and jazz, were the victims of an oil shortage that grossly affected American pressings of vinyl LPs. What had once been a high quality market was now riddled with defective copies of discs which had blis- ters in the vinyl, scratchy-sounding surfaces and wore out quickly. Record buyers who were turned off by this switched to cassette tapes or, in some cases, the new eight-track tape format.
