It was hugely popular, but beyond the regional sponsor, Rheingold Beer, no national sponsor would take the show on. It was cancelled, to which Cole famously responded, “I guess Madison Avenue is afraid of the dark.” Cole grew up in Chicago within a large, musical family. He was essentially self-taught as both a pianist (he was a devotee of Earl “Fatha” Hines) and vocalist. In his early career, it was jazz that was his medium. He led a band dubbed the “Royal Dukes” and then created what was at the time an innovation in jazz—the small group format. His innovative trio featured guitar player Oscar Moore and bassist Wesley Prince.

Reviews Keith Loria, on theatermania.com, called the show “a tender glimpse into the Hineses’ rise to fame and a touching tribute to a brother.” Benjamin Tomchik wrote in Broadway World, that the show “seems determined not only to love the audience, but to entertain them, and it succeeds at doing just that! While Tappin' Thru Life does have some flaws, it's hard to find anyone who isn't won over by Hines showmanship, humor, timing and above all else, talent.” In The Washington Post, Nelson Pressley wrote, “’Tappin’ is basically a breezy, personable concert. The show doesn’t flinch from hard-core nostalgia; the heart-on-his-sleeve Hines is too sentimental for that. It’s frankly schmaltzy, and it’s barely written — it zips through selected moments of Hines’s life, creating a mood more than telling a story. it’s a pleasure to be in the company of a shameless, ebullient vaudeville heart.” Maurice Hines Is .

It served to unite both military and civilian sectors in a time of total war. Annegret Fauser explains that music, “A medium both permeable and malleable was appropriated for numerous war related tasks.”1 When one realizes this principle, it becomes important to understand how music affected individual segments of American society. By examining women’s roles in the performance, dissemination, and consumption of music, this thesis attempts to position music as a tool in perpetuating the patriarchal gender relations in America during World War II.

  • Photographs Shine at Swann Galleries' African Americana
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Alexandra Nelson April 2, 2018 Communications Director 212-254-4710, ext. 19 [email protected] Photographs Shine at Swann Galleries’ African Americana Auction New Record for a Signed Frederick Douglass Photograph at $30k New York—Institutional purchases dominated the buying field at Swann Galleries’ auction of Printed & Manuscript African Americana on March 29. The top lots of the auction were almost entirely manuscripts, archives, early photographs or otherwise unique material. A large percentage—four of the top five, and 13 of the top 20—will be joining public collections. The auction was led by an album of cartes-de-visite featuring abolitionists and African Americans from the Boston area. The most popular lot during the preview week, it was something like a "little sister" to the album handled by Swann in 2017 that contained a previously unrecorded photograph of Harriet Tubman. It was purchased by an institution for $47,500, above a high estimate of $9,000. An archive of six letters by Frederick Douglass, which had remained in a family collection since their receipt, led a significant selection of material related to the abolitionist. The correspondence, addressed to his friend Ebenezer Bassett, concerned race relations, Haiti and politics; it provides fascinating new insights into the mindset of one of the greatest Americans toward the end of his life ($42,500). The only known complete copy of Farewell Song of Frederick Douglass, on Quitting England for America—the Land of his Birth, a songbook by Julia and T. Powis Griffiths, flew past its high estimate of $7,500 to reach $37,500.

Though this has changed in recent years, the women of the past did not get the fame they deserved until after their deaths. Women have even tried to perform as professional musicians since ancient Greek times. But even then, the recognition did not go far. They were performers but were not seen as influences on music or social standings like male composers and performers were. They were not remembered like male performers and composers until past their time, and the lives of these women are not studied as possible influences in music until far past their times as well.
