That community provided a safe haven from a not so accepting world for members to be themselves as well as to nurture and support one another as they dealt with the HIV/AIDS epidemic. On December 19, 1991, approximately 60 men performed in front of an audience of mostly family and friends the premiere concert Tidings of Pride and Joy.

Who knew that a year ago the whole world would be shut down? I didn’t. We were preparing to perform in a joint charity concert with Southern Gateway Chorus quickly followed by our Spring concert God Save the Queens, a salute to iconic songs and stars of the UK… when it all went bust. Poof. So here we are, just over a year later. CMC is still going. We are thriving and surviving thanks to you, our supporters. By the completion of this concert, we will have produced or been involved in fifteen virtual videos. That’s a lot of content! For this concert, we have culled three classic recordings from CMC’s Thirteenth season (13 going on 30? Anyone?), with new videos choreographed and produced by Darnell Pierre Benjamin (of Pones) and local theatre actor/director/choreographer David Radtke. We are lucky enough to have two video producers in our ranks: Bob Amott and Eric Knechtges, who helped make this transition to virtual productions much easier than it could have been. And what about the music? It’s the Great American Songbook! This is our heritage, the popular music that started here and influenced the world. And its influence continues to this day. I have read (Wikipedia, y’all) that the era of the Great American Songbook starts around 1920 and ends roughly around 1950-1960. Hogwash. That would leave out so much Broadway, Motown, and other pop songs that will continue indefinitely in Karaoke halls around the world. Sweet Caroline, anyone? My Girl? I Will Survive? Theme from New, York, New, York? Fancy? Push It? Let It Go… you get the idea. All that to say, grab a drink and a snack, relax in the best seat in your house, and enjoy String of Pearls.

  • Messages of American Popular Song to Women During World War II
    “I’m Doin’ It for Defense”: Messages of American Popular Song to Women during World War II A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Amy Brooks BM, Bob Jones University, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract World War II presented many new opportunities for American women. In this time of need, they were called upon to take an active part in the war effort, whether by means of working in a factory, growing a victory garden, or serving as a volunteer for wartime organizations. Women made great strides forward in areas such as the workforce and the military. The American popular song industry promoted these new roles for women. I have compiled over 150 songs from 1940 to1945 that relate to women’s roles during the World War II era. Of these songs, I have chosen a select number of songs that best demonstrate popular culture’s attitudes and actions towards women during the war. These songs can be divided into five categories: women in the military, women in the workforce, women’s war effort, women’s responsibilities to men in uniform, and women in the immediate post-war period. I have studied the representative songs by considering their lyrics to identify the objectives supported by the popular song industry. I took into consideration the venues in which they were presented and how these performances influenced their reception.

  • 15 Body and Soul.Pdf
    Hi Soulful Song Lovers and Story Tellers, This is the 15th of the Friday emails that we’re sending out or posting on the webpage about songs, stories, storytelling, community, or personal/spiritual growth. In July, we anticipate that all 15 of these PDFs will be posted on the webpage, www.j.mp/uucsr-sss. This week we’re going to look at Soulful Songs and Stories through the lens of Black Lives Matter and the issues of race, diversity, and privilege. There over two dozen musical selections ranging from Luigi Boccherini to Miles Davis and Ruthie Foster, and words of wisdom from Dave Chappelle to Frederick Douglass and Nikky Finney. We’re going on hiatus for the summer, although we might post a very short song/story combo in mid-July and mid-August, so there’s still reason to visit the webpage, or register with Jessica Pond ([email protected]) to get the PDFs emailed to you. We sorely miss you and your stories. We miss hugs and laughter and coffee/tea with you. We know these mailings are no substitute for meeting face-to-face, but hope that they, in some small way, filled the gap when we were absent one from the other. Although you can now get your hair cut, you still can’t go to the US Tennis Open at the end of August (if it’s even held), so who knows what safe gathering will look like in September and beyond. Take the spirit of Soulful Songs and Stories with you wherever you go; own your stories, inhabit them, and share them.

A Model of Collaborative Creativity: The Arrangements of Nelson Riddle for Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2016, 55 pp., 19 examples, 4 lyrics, references, 31 titles. This dissertation explores the themes of collaboration and creativity in the relationship between arranger Nelson Riddle and vocalists Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. It examines the balance between structure and freedom as well as the specific musical results that emerge from collaboration between an arranger and vocalists who are considered among the greatest in their fields. An examination of their interactions, musical scores, and performances, reveals that the constraints that are present in a collaborative effort can lead the artists to find a shared process to make a creative, unified product.
