World War I and Irving Berlin: Yip Yip Yaphank – In 1917, during World War I, Irving Berlin entered the U.S. Army and staged a musical revue, Yip Yip Yaphank, while at Camp Upton in Yaphank, New York. The show’s cast consisted of 350 members of the armed forces. The revue was a patriotic tribute to the U.S. Army. Berlin composed a song entitled “God Bless America” for the show, but decided against using it. The song was released over two decades later, in 1938. World War II and Irving Berlin: This is the Army – The success of Yip Yip Yaphank during World War I inspired Irving Berlin to volunteer to do a similar revue, This is the Army, during World War II. After receiving permission from General George Marshall, it was staged on Broadway, opening on July 4, 1942, with a cast of over 300 servicemen. A smash hit, it ran for three years, with the military taking it to London and Europe, and to the men fighting in the Pacific theatre. The show, as well as the fictionalized story of its production, was also turned into the 1943 motion picture, This is the Army. The Cold War and Irving Berlin: The death of Irving Berlin – The September 22, 1989, death of Irving Berlin is prophetically connected to the November 9-11, 1989, fall of the Berlin Wall, which was tied to the fall of East Germany, the dismantling of the Warsaw Pact, and the eventual 1991 demise of the Soviet Union. #1765 The Yom Kippur War and the Abomination of Desolation – The post-World War II U.S. waxing great Page 1 of 2 toward the South and toward the East as a second Syria/Antiochus IV Epiphanes, part 24, Irving Berlin: World War I (and Irving Berlin), World War II (and Irving Berlin), and the Cold War (and Irving Berlin) Key Understanding #2: Irving Berlin and World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. The fact that Irving Berlin is a major prophetic face of the United States in the fulfillment of its role as the stern-faced king in Daniel 8:23, and the fact that Irving Berlin is so closely tied to World War I, World War II, and the Cold War, point to the fact that the stern-faced king of Daniel 8:23 encompasses the entire span of time and events that include World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. In other words, Irving Berlin represented the United States as the Daniel 8:23 stern- faced king in World War I, in World War II, and in the Cold War. Furthermore . Key Understanding #3: Irving Berlin and Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan. It is more comprehensive to add the respective Presidents of the United States to those events and time periods. It can be said that Irving Berlin and Woodrow Wilson represented the United States as the Daniel 8:23 stern-faced king in World War I; Irving Berlin and Franklin D. Roosevelt/Harry Truman represented the United States as the Daniel 8:23 stern-faced king in World War II; Irving Berlin and Ronald Reagan represented the United States as the Daniel 8:23 stern-faced king in the Cold War.

    Irving Berlin “This Is the Life!” The Breakthrough Years: 1909–1921 by Rick Benjamin “Irving Berlin remains, I think, America’s Schubert.” —George Gershwin It was a perfect late summer evening in 2015. A crowd had gathered in the park of a small Pennsylvania town to hear the high-school band. I was there to support my trombonist son and his friends. The others were also mostly parents and relatives of “band kids,” with a sprinkling of senior citizens and dog walkers. As the band launched its “covers” of current pop hits toward the treetops, some in the crowd were only half-listening; their digital devices were more absorbing. But then it happened: The band swung into a new tune, and the mood changed. Unconsciously people seemed to sit up a bit straighter. There was a smattering of applause. Hands and feet started to move in time with the beat. The seniors started to sing. One of those rare “public moments” was actually happening. Then I realized what the band was playing—“God Bless America.” Finally, here was something solid—something that resonated, even with these teenaged performers. The singing grew louder, and the performance ended with the biggest applause of the night. “God Bless America” was the grandest music of the concert, a mighty oak amongst the scrub. Yet the name of its creator—Irving Berlin—was never announced. It didn’t need to be. A man on a bench nearby said to me, “I just love those Irving Berlin songs.” Why is that, anyway? And how still? Irving Berlin was a Victorian who rose to fame during the Ragtime Era.

I APPROVAL SHEET Title of Thesis: The Muse Dons Khaki: American Songs and Music of World War I Name of Candidate: Jacquelin Master of Date Approved: ojd1 / b J ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: The Muse Dons Khaki: American Songs and Music of World War I Jacquelin Joan Kelly, Master of Arts, 1963 Thesis directed by: Gordon w. Prange, Professor Department of History During the years 1917 and 1918 the United States participated in a 11 war to end all wars. 11 During the conflict the government deliberately enlisted the power of song both at home and on the fighting front to help in the great task of winning the war. The idea of organized singing in the training of the U. s. Arrrry was comparatively new at the time America entered Wor ld War I, but it soon came to be recognized as an integral part of the training itself. The government encouraged singing in the army both on marches and in leisure-time groups because it contributed substantially to the enjoyment, contentment and efficiency of the soldier. The ballads, however, that eased tired muscles after a long days march and boosted morale after a day of heavy fighting were not government sponsored songs, but parodies and GI folk songs that the Sammies themselves composed.

    Brookhaven National Laboratory Site History Tour “From Basic Training to Basic Research” Brookhaven National Laboratory The trenches here may be some of the only surviving examples of WWI earthworks in the U.S., and they have been determined to be eligible for Site History Bus Tour listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Welcome to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, and thank you for joining us on this tour of the Laboratory’s Brookhaven Center - Building 30 site. The tour will take us back almost one century, all the way back to 1917, and it will take us down memory lane — from World War I and World War II and the post-War era, up to the present day. The boundaries of Brookhaven Lab encompass over 5,000 acres in an ecological area of Long Island called the Pine Barrens. Today, close to 1,000 of these acres are occupied by the Laboratory’s 300-plus buildings, facilities and other structures. The way the Lab site is laid out resembles a college campus — but this was not always the case. So, let us go back in history, to see how the U.S. federal government, has used this site in several different ways as a national resource for the benefit of the entire country. As we tour the site, you will see how it has Building 30 – 2005 Building 30 – 1948 evolved to become the base for the large, multipurpose national research institution that is the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven Lab today.

  • Songs of the Ziegfeld Follies
    SONGS OF THE ZIEGFELD FOLLIES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Ann Ommen, B.M., M.A. The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Professor Graeme Boone, Adviser Approved by Professor Thomas Postlewait Professor Danielle Fosler-Lussier _________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Music Copyright by Ann Ommen 2007 ABSTRACT Enormously popular in their own time, the Ziegfeld Follies have become an icon of American popular culture. Produced annually by Florenz Ziegfeld, Jr. between 1907 and 1931, these revues were and still are best-known for their lavish production numbers which brought unprecedented attention to members of the chorus. They have served as inspiration for generations of filmmakers, playwrights, and popular authors, but have only been studied by a small number of scholars, primarily those working in cultural studies. For the first time, this dissertation brings a musicological identity to the Follies by examining their songs. It addresses the legends surrounding certain songs so that their performance history can be better understood. It discusses representations of gender, race, and national identity in songs of the Follies, revealing the cultural beliefs Ziegfeld thought would be most acceptable to his largely white, middle-class audiences. It dissects comic song performances to show a specifically musical component to the humor of the Follies. Finally, it analyzes compositional techniques in the lyrics of Gene Buck and in the songs written by Irving Berlin for the Ziegfeld Follies of 1927 , the only Follies production to have been written by a single songwriter.

ARTISTIC DIRECTOR I’m pinching myself. Is it really the last show of the 14 – 15 season? Seems like just yesterday it was May ‘14 and I was announcing to my students what the shows you have enjoyed this season would be. Those announcements are always made full of anticipation and uncertainty. We embark bravely on a plan that is intentionally creative, complicated, academically valuable, Liberal Arts focused, challenging and fun. We pray that our plans will be Divinely blessed and pray the prayer that never fails, Thy Will Be Done. They were and it was and He did and we are thankful. It has been said that Irving Berlin didn’t write American music, he was American music. Over the years he was known for writing music and lyrics in the American vernacular: uncomplicated, simple and direct, with his stated aim being to “reach the heart of the average American,” whom he saw as the “real soul of the country.” In doing so, said Walter Cronkite, at Berlin’s 100th birthday tribute, he “helped write the story of this country, capturing the best of who we are and the dreams that shape our lives.” I Love a Piano then becomes somewhat of a review of the American narrative and an exploration of how art speaks into and reflects the culture and political climate in which it was written.

Another of the rousing songs from the same season was Blanche Merrill’s “We Take Our Hats Off to You, Mr. Wilson.” Popularized by both Nora Bayes and Fanny Brice, it took on a new meaning as Wilson campaigned for reelection in 1916 on the slo- gan that he had kept the nation out of war. Other songs were more equiv- ocal. “Go Right Along, Mr. Wilson,” A. Seymour Brown’s early campaign hit of 1915, for example, endorsed Wilson’s peace efforts even as it openly asked the country to ready itself for whatever sacrifices might eventually be called for.
