  • Forgotten Splendour
    FORGOTTEN SPLENDOUR A Chronology of the North Shore Music Festival 1909 to 1939 by Andrew Cottonaro Beginning in 1909 and lasting until 1939, the North Shore Music Festival of Northwestern University was a significant musical and social event in the Chicago area. For a few days each Spring, the campus hosted a diverse body of performers in a series of grand concerts. Naturally, some of that era’s most eminent singers could be heard there. Their presence certainly helped to sell tickets and their artistry helped to sustain the festival as a popular and critical success. Now, sixty years later, the festival hardly even counts as a faded memory. To date, two books (in part), offer a general outline of the festival’s history, but both lack any detailed analysis of who appeared and what was actually sung. This is the first attempt to present a chronology of the vocal offerings (quite distinct from the orchestral offerings) at the festival. Northwestern University, the official sponsor of the festival, is located in Evanston, Illinois (USA). The town is a suburb of Chicago, directly north of the city and on the banks of Lake Michigan. Because of this geographic position, Evanston and the other cities of the area are called the North Shore, hence the origin of the festival’s name. Northwestern University was incorporated in 1850 and gradually won recognition for its academic excellence. The establishment of musical studies, however, was a tangled web of many failed efforts. In a final and desperate attempt to salvage musical education, the university’s board of trustees in 1891 appointed Peter Christian Lutkin (1858-1931) to direct musical studies, a post that he held until his death.

It was named after Camden New Jersey which was the manufacturing and distribution center of RCA Victor records. Much of the material released by Camden were reissues of albums released by RCA Victor, usually with a few less songs. Initially the label was used for classical releases but soon started releasing popular, country and comedy albums. Albums released by Camden included ones released by RCA of Canada using the same numbering system. These RCA of Canada albums were only distributed in Canada and were not listed in the Schwann catalogs.

    “Carousel of American Music”--George M. Cohan, Irving Berlin, Johnny Mercer, Arthur Freed, Shelton Brooks, Hoagy Carmichael, others (September 24, 1940) Added to the National Registry: 2015 Essay by David A. Banks (guest post)* Ann Ronell Gene Buck William William Grant Still I In September 1939, New York's Mayor Fiorello La Guardia ran into Gene Buck, President of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). Buck and La Guardia talked about the war in Europe, which was adversely affecting the New York World's Fair (1939-1940), with many nations dismantling their pavilions. The Mayor wondered if something could be done to take New Yorkers' minds off the war news. Buck mentioned that ASCAP was observing its 25th anniversary. ASCAP was founded to collect royalties for its membership by licensing their works for public performances. ASCAP's membership includes the greatest names in popular and classical music. La Guardia suggested a series of concerts to celebrate the anniversary. Buck agreed saying, “We will put on a show for you the likes of which has never been seen anywhere.” The “New York Times” ran a frontpage story, “Gala Week of Free Music in City to Be Held to Allay Gloom of War.” “We'll having everything from ballads to opera,” said the mayor, “from symphony to swing, and the program will be a monument dedicated to art and to peace.” The Gala Week was a hit, with ASCAP members continuing to give concerts until the end of the Fair. Concurrently, the Golden Gate International Exposition was being held in San Francisco on Treasure Island.

Georg Friedrich Handel , (1685-1759) Rinaldo, believing himself wronged by Armida, turns to his God for consolation. The opera is the first that Handel composed in England and is said to have been written completely in a fortnight. It is noted for its fine musical line and classical style. Papagena! Cara! Bella Tortorella!" Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Scene from The Magic Flute (1756-1791) Papageno, the bird-catcher, bemoans his inability to find his beloved Papagena. He plays his pipes repeatedly, but without answer. Three genii appear and remind him to play on his bells, and lol, Papagena appears. II. My Native Land................................................... Alexander T. Gretchaninoff 1 (1864- > This is a short song—of only fourteen bars. But its eight verbless phrases seemingly have the magic power to spread all of Russia before you. The thought was originally expressed by Count Alexis Tolstoi and the English version is by Deems Taylor and Kurt Schindler. The Bells of Novogorod................................................... Russian Folk Song To study Russian folk songs is to discover scores of themes which achieved lasting fame in Russian operatic and symphonic works. This theme was used conspicuously by Moussorgsky in Boris Godounoff. The Old Corporal.................................................. Alexander S. Dargomizhsky . (1813-1869) this certainly is not a pretty song, but one that is tensely dramatic.
