  • 2009–Senior Seminar, Ives, Blues, Porter
    James Hepokoski Spring 2009 Music 458: Ives, Blues, Porter Visions of America: Competing concepts of musical style and purpose in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century. We examine some stylistic and cultural bases of both “art” and “popular” music and their often uneasy interrelationships. This is neither a survey course nor one concerned with mastering a body of facts. Nor is it preoccupied with coming to aesthetic value judgments. Instead, it is a course in applying critical thinking and analysis to some familiar musical styles basic to the American experience: asking hard questions of differing early- and mid-twentieth-century repertories. Areas to be examined include: 1) Ives (selected songs, Concord Sonata, Second Symphony); 2) early blues (Bessie Smith, Charley Patton, Robert Johnson, and others), including samples of African-American recorded precedents and related genres; 3) Broadway and popular song—including a brief look at Jerome Kern (selected numbers from Show Boat) followed by a closer study of Cole Porter (Anything Goes). Some main questions to be faced are: What aesthetic/contextual/analytical tools do we need to think more deeply about differing pieces of music that spring from or respond to markedly differing/diverse American subcultures? What are our presuppositions in listening to any of these musics, and to what extent might we profit by examining these presuppositions critically? The course will also make use of resources in Yale’s music collection—most notably the Charles Ives Papers and The Cole Porter Collection. We shall also be concerned with original recordings from the 1920s and 1930s.

  • Elgin Academy's Summer Theater Program Is Excited to Be Hosting
    Elgin Academy’s Summer Theater Program is excited to be hosting educators Rick Hilsabeck and Sarah Pfisterer, award winning Broadway Stars from The Phantom of the Opera, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Billy Elliot and Show Boat! Rick Hilsabeck is a highly regarded actor, singer, dancer and teacher with over 35 years of experience starring on Broadway, national tours, the concert stage, as well as the dance world. He has enjoyed a successful and diverse international career. Rick learned the hallmarks of good teaching from his parents. His mom, an accomplished soprano in her own right, and his dad, a beloved high school history teacher, recognized his growing interests in art, music and dance. With a solid foundation early on in vocal technique and an interest in dance, he was pointed in the right direction. Directly out of high school, Rick was chosen to be a member of the Academy Award winning singing group The Young Americans, based in Los Angeles. He was also accepted to the Acting program at California State University, Fullerton. There he studied all aspects of the theatre arts: acting technique, scene study, makeup design, set design, fencing, stage combat and mime. Rick returned to his native Chicago where he worked in the area theatres and studied dance with Lou Conte. The internationally acclaimed Hubbard Street Dance Company was in its infancy at the time and Rick became the first male principal dancer with the troupe where he appeared in two PBS TV specials. He had a long tenure with HSDC as a dancer, choreographer and teacher.

  • Zu Ella Fitzgerald Vom 2.12.2019
    Ella Fitzgerald Story auf Radio 700 vom Montag, den 2.12.2019, 18.55 - 21.00 Uhr Autoren: Klaus Huckert/Uwe Lorenz Einleitungsmusik: A Tisket, A Tasket Anmoderation: In der heutigen Sendung des Jazz-Cocktails wollen wir uns mit dem Star des Vocal- Jazz Ella Fitzgerald beschäftigen. Im 20.Jahrhundert prägte keine andere Stimme den Jazz so sehr wie die von Ella. Ihre Beinamen waren „The Queen of Jazz“ oder „The first Lady of Jazz“ bzw. auch „The first Lady of Song“. Zur Eröffnung haben wir bereits ihren ersten Millionen-Hit „A Tisket, A Tasket“ aus dem Jahr 1938 gehört. In der fast sechzig Jahren währenden Welt-Karriere nahm die Sängerin mehrere hundert Platten auf, erhielt 14 Grammys und eine Vielzahl an Ehrungen. Schnelle Tempi im Bebop-Gesang, melancholischer Grundton bei Balladen, mitreißender Groove bei Swing-Nummern und hochinteressante Scat-Einlagen kennzeichneten ihren Stil. Basis ihres Könnens war eine Genauigkeit in der Intonation und glasklare Töne, wie man sie heute selten findet. Ihr Repertoire umfasste den Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel. Musik aus dem genannten Repertoire (Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel) z.B. „Please don’t talk about it when I am gone“ (Swing“) CD „Count Basie/Ella Fitzgerald: The perfect Match“, „One note Samba“ (CD „Ella & Pass …Again“) Track 14, „St. Louis Blues“ (CD „Ella & Basie The Perfect Match Track 10), „Mack the Knife“ (Swing) (CD Ella in Berlin, (10er Pack REEL TO REEL) …….. Die Anfangsjahre von Ella Fitzgerald (Take 1) Ella Jane Fitzgerald – geboren 1917 in Newport News/Virginia, verstorben 1996 in Beverly Hills/Kalifornien -, hatte eine relativ schwierige Kindheit.
