This Arrangement Has Been Published with the Authorization of the Ella Fitzgerald Estate. Published by the Jazz Lines Foundation Inc., a not-for-profit jazz research organization dedicated to preserving and promoting America’s musical heritage. The Jazz Lines Foundation Inc. PO Box 1236 Saratoga Springs NY 12866 USA ella fitzgerald series sweet georgia brown (1966) Ella Fitzgerald Biography: Truly the First Lady of Song, Ella Fitzgerald was one of the greatest singers in American history. As her official website perfectly states, “Her voice was flexible, wide-ranging, accurate, and ageless. She could sing sultry ballads, sweet jazz, and imitate every instrument in an orchestra.” She enthralled audiences all over the world for decades, worked with everyone from Duke, Dizzy, and Count Basie to Nat King Cole and Sinatra, and left a recorded legacy that is second to none. Born Ella Jane Fitzgerald on April 25, 1917 in Newport News, Virginia, Ella endured some rough times as a child. Following the split of her parents, she moved with her mother to Yonkers, NY, and sadly lost her mother at age 15. Fighting poverty, Ella eventually used these difficult times as motiva- tion in life, and continued to harbor dreams of being an entertainer. She made her public singing debut at the Apollo Theater in Harlem on November 21, 1934 at age 17.

  • April 1 & 3, 2021 Walt Disney Theater
    April 1 & 3, 2021 Walt Disney Theater FAIRWINDS GROWS MY MONEY SO I CAN GROW MY BUSINESS. Get the freedom to go further. Insured by NCUA. OPERA-2646-02/092719 Opera Orlando’s Carmen On the MainStage at Dr. Phillips Center | April 2021 Dear friends, Carmen is finally here! Although many plans have changed over the course of the past year, we have always had our sights set on Carmen, not just because of its incredible music and compelling story but more because of the unique setting and concept of this production in particular - 1960s Haiti. So why transport Carmen and her friends from 1820s Seville to 1960s Haiti? Well, it all just seemed to make sense, for Orando, that is. We have a vibrant and growing Haitian-American community in Central Florida, and Creole is actually the third most commonly spoken language in the state of Florida. Given that Creole derives from French, and given the African- Carribean influences already present in Carmen, setting Carmen in Haiti was a natural fit and a great way for us to celebrate Haitian culture and influence in our own community. We were excited to partner with the Greater Haitian American Chamber of Commerce for this production and connect with Haitian-American artists, choreographers, and academics. Since Carmen is a tale of survival against all odds, we wanted to find a particularly tumultuous time in Haiti’s history to make things extra difficult for our heroine, and setting the work in the 1960s under the despotic rule of Francois Duvalier (aka Papa Doc) certainly raised the stakes.

  • Heyward, Dorothy Papers, 180.00
    Dorothy Heyward papers, ca. 1850-1976 (bulk 1918-1961) SCHS 180.00 Creator: Heyward, Dorothy, 1890-1961. Description: 18 linear ft. Biographical/Historical note: Playwright and novelist. The daughter of Herman Luyties Kuhns (b. 1855) and Dora Virginia Hartzell, Dorothy Hartzell Kuhns was born in Wooster, Ohio. Dorothy studied playwrighting at Harvard University, and as a fellow of George Pierce Baker's Workshop 47 she spent a summer's residency at the MacDowell Colony, an artists' retreat in New Hampshire, where she met South Carolina author DuBose Heyward (1885-1940). They married in September 1923. Their only child was Jenifer DuBose Heyward (later Mrs. Jenifer Wood, 1930-1984), who became a ballet dancer and made her home in New York, N.Y. Dorothy collaborated with her husband to produce a dramatic version of his novel "Porgy." The play became the libretto for the opera "Porgy & Bess" (first produced in 1935) by DuBose Heyward and George and Ira Gershwin. She also collaborated with her husband to produce "Mamba's Daughters," a play based on DuBose Heyward's novel by the same name. In 1940 Dorothy Heyward succeeded her late husband as the resident dramatist at the Dock Street Theater (Charleston, S.C.). In the years following his death she continued to write and published a number of works including the plays "South Pacific" (1943) and "Set My People Free" (1948, the story of the Denmark Vesey slave insurrection), as well as the libretto for the children's opera "Babar the Elephant" (1953). Earlier works by Dorothy Heyward include the plays "Love in a Cupboard" (1925), "Jonica" (1930), and "Cinderelative" (1930, in collaboration with Dorothy DeJagers), and the novels "Three-a-Day" (1930) and "The Pulitzer Prize Murders" (1932).

    PORGY AND BESS by George Gershwin, DuBose and Dorothy Heyward, and Ira Gershwin Directed by Charles Newell Music Direction by Doug Peck Artistic Consultant Ron OJ Parson May 12 – July 3, 2011 at Court Theatre Kittiwah Island, looking for Bess. All of a sudden, Clara spies the overturned fishing boat of her husband Jake outside the window. Fearing for his life, Clara hands her infant baby to Bess and throws herself out the door into the storm. Bess begs for one of the men to follow her; Crown volunteers, but only after taunting Porgy, who is unable to go. The next day, the deaths of Jake and Clara are mourned by the residents of Catfish Row. The care of their baby has fallen to Bess, who sings him a lullaby. After night falls, Crown returns to seize Bess, but Porgy is waiting there to stop him. They fight, and Porgy kills Crown, against all odds. The next day, the local detective arrives to inquire about the murders of Crown and Robbins, and the residents collaborate to protect Porgy. The police take Porgy in anyway, ordering him to identify Crown’s body. Once he is gone, Sporting Life takes his opportunity to persuade Bess to come with him to New York, convincing her that Porgy will be imprisoned. He forces drugs on her and extols the virtues of the city. She refuses, but Sporting Life waits patiently for her to give in. A week later, Porgy returns from prison, bearing gifts he bought with the craps money he earned in jail.

  • Lasting Impressions: Blacks Actors of the 1950'S and 1960S by Ryan Garcia
    Lasting Impressions: Blacks Actors of the 1950’s and 1960s Ryan L. Garcia An Interpretive History of African-American Education Part II: 1950 to the Present EDU P&L 834 DR. Beverly Gordon May 29, 2012 A. Overview When going to the movies we often see names such as Halle Berry, Will Smith, Whoopi Goldberg, Samuel L. Jackson, and Morgan Freemen who make us laugh, cry, think, and forgot about the worries of the world. However, we often forget about or have no understanding of those people who paved the way for the actors to be on the big screen and left lasting impressions in our culture. Icons like Sidney Poitier, Dorothy Dandridge, Hattie McDaniel, Bill Cosby, Alvin Childress, and Flip Wilson of the 1950’s and 1960’s through their portrayal in media brought their experiences through perseverance, strife, and overcoming racism real and allowed for the changes seen today to be made possible. Throughout the early part of the century and during the Civil Rights Era, most black actors were depicted in stereotypical roles such as the butler, chauffeurs, entertainers, the “mammie” and the unemployed/ill-educated lazy person who does nothing but gamble and drink alcohol. “Mainstream society has long used the arts- including music, visual culture, theater, film and television-to offer unflattering images of blacks, images that would validate the poor treatment of blacks within American society” (Catanese, 2008). Despite these images those roles were a far cry from today’s standards and complexities of black life and meaning. Dorothy Dandridge, Sidney Poitier, and Bill Cosby helped make a way for future generations of black actors to achieve more than the standard stereotypes to stand out as among the best in award winning Hollywood Royalty who left us with the messages of the past and the hope for the future to overcome the oppressive images and rise to take the lead.
