  • A History of Music in Old Mount Vernon, Ohio with Particular Attention to Woodward Hall and the Nineteenth-Century American Opera House
    A HISTORY OF MUSIC IN OLD MOUNT VERNON, OHIO WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO WOODWARD HALL AND THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY AMERICAN OPERA HOUSE A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elizabeth Bleecker McDaniel, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Master's Examination Committee Approved by Dr. Graeme M. Boone, Adviser Dr. Charles M. Atkinson _________________________ Adviser Mr. Christopher R. Weait School of Music ABSTRACT During the antebellum period, the town of Mount Vernon, Ohio had a flourishing music scene that included performances by both local amateur societies and professional touring groups. When Woodward Hall, located on the top floor of a four-story commercial building, opened its doors to the public in 1851, it provided the town with its first dedicated theater. Newspaper items and other early sources show that the hall was a focus of public culture in the 1850s, hosting concerts, plays, lectures, and art exhibits as well as community activities including dances, church fundraisers, and school exhibitions. The early source materials for Mount Vernon, however, like those for many small towns, are lacunary, and especially so in the case of Woodward Hall. These shortcomings are compensated, to some extent, by materials relating to theaters of similar size and age in other towns, which offer points of comparison for the Woodward and prove it to be a typical mid-nineteenth-century American theater in some respects, and a distinctive one in others. Modern-day music histories have heretofore been silent on the subject of music and opera houses in small towns despite Oscar Sonneck’s call, some ninety years ago, for local music historiography as a necessary first step in creating a complete history of American music.

  • July/August 2021
    Volume 37 Issue 4 July/August 2021 Ten Thousand Feet for Freedom Leslie Blankenship, Local Historian ugust 26 is “Woman’s Equality Day.” On that date in 1920 the 19th Amendment was certified, and many women in the United States finally achieved the constitutional right to vote as a fundamental componentA of their citizenship. On June 16, 1919, Ohio was the fifth state to ratify the amendment. Voting rights were granted to American Indians and Asian Americans when they became citizens through acts of Congress in 1924 (Snyder Act) and 1952 (McCarren-Walter Act), respectively. African Americans in the South had to wait until 1965 when the federal Voting Rights Act abolished all manner of Jim Crow voting restrictions. Another date, August 27, 1912, cherished by Ohio woman suffrage advocates, is little remembered today. On that Tuesday morning, thousands of women gathered in Columbus to march in the state’s first suffrage parade. It was a compelling display of street theater with equal parts beauty, solidarity, and resolve that dazzled its audience, changed some minds, and earned grudging respect for the marchers’ cause. In 1911, Ohio was at a watershed moment. Fed up with the consequences of corrupt boss-dominated municipal governments and of a General Assembly in thrall to the excesses of Big Business, Ohio men voted to convene a Constitutional Convention to remedy these abuses. Gaveled into session on January 9, 1912, the 119 nonpartisan [male] members of the “Con-Con” got right to it. Within five months, they debated 350 reforms and offered 42 new constitutional amendments to Ohio’s [male] voters for approval in a September 3rd Special Dr.
