Drawings from the Beckman family also showed that the well-known muralist had designed the Theatre’s elaborate stage curtain and panels for the foyer. Most of the media attention has been directed toward restoring the six canvas California history murals designed by Anthony B. Heinsbergen (1894-1991) on the east and west walls of the auditorium, but it is Beckman’s classically- inspired artwork that actually complements the Italian Renaissance theme of the Theatre, adding a touch of grandeur and lavishness to the interior.

In 2011, toen de zestig werd bereikt, was dat wel anders. In kranten verschenen do-you-remember-achtige verhalen, ver- lucht met foto’s van een jonge Mies Bouwman, een vrolijke Swiebertje en een goedmoedige Pater Leo- pold Verhagen. Via legio herdenkingsprogramma’s kon gekeken worden naar een rondspringende Wil- lem Ruis, een parmantige Jos Brink die de koningin waarachtig een wangkus durfde te geven en een quasi serieuze Fred Oster bij een hamsterdoolhof. Maar Lucille Ball, om wie in die zes decennia met tus- senpozen het meest is gelachen voor de buis, schit- terde door afwezigheid.

  • Lee Morgan Chronology 1956–1972 by Jeffery S
    Delightfulee Jeffrey S. McMillan University of Michigan Press Lee Morgan Chronology 1956–1972 By Jeffery S. McMillan This is an annotated listing of all known Lee Morgan performances and all recordings (studio, live performances, broadcasts, telecasts, and interviews). The titles of studio recordings are given in bold and preceded by the name of the session leader. Recordings that appear to be lost are prefaced with a single asterisk in parentheses: (*). Recordings that have been commercially issued have two asterisks: **. Recordings that exist on tape but have never been commercially released have two asterisks in parentheses: (**). Any video footage known to survive is prefaced with three asterisks: ***. Video footage that was recorded but appears to now be lost is prefaced with three asterisks in parentheses: (***). On numerous occasions at Slugs’ Saloon in Manhattan, recording devices were set up on the stage and recorded Morgan’s performances without objection from the trumpeter. So far, none of these recordings have come to light. The information herein is a collation of data from newspapers, periodicals, published and personal interviews, discographies, programs, pamphlets, and other chronologies of other artists. Morgan’s performances were rarely advertised in most mainstream papers, so I drew valuable information primarily from African-American newspapers and jazz periodicals, which regularly carried ads for nightclubs and concerts. Entertainment and nightlife columnists in the black press, such as “Woody” McBride, Masco Young, Roland Marsh, Jesse Walker, Art Peters, and Del Shields, provided critical information, often verifying the personnel of an engagement or whether an advertised appearance occurred or was cancelled. Newspapers that I used include the Baltimore Afro-American (BAA), Cleveland Call & Post (C&P), Chicago Defender (CD), New Jersey Afro-American (NJAA), New York Amsterdam News (NYAN), Philadelphia Tribune (PT), and Pittsburgh Courier (PC).

  • Show Boat” (1932) Added to the National Registry: 2005 Essay by Todd Decker (Guest Post)*
    “Show Boat” (1932) Added to the National Registry: 2005 Essay by Todd Decker (guest post)* Helen Morgan Original album package Paul Robeson Before the long-playing record (or LP) made original cast albums a key component of the Broadway musical, record companies recognized the potential of turning a Broadway score into a unified experience for home listeners. The 1927 musical “Show Boat” was the first to receive this treatment. In 1932, the year of “Show Boat’s” first Broadway revival, the Brunswick label released a set of four specially-recorded 78s of songs from the show. The discs were bound in a handsome album featuring cover art taken from the sheet music for the Broadway show which had, in turn, been derived from the cover of Edna Ferber’s 1926 novel. The lavish set’s liner notes described the collection as an “album of music from one of the most tuneful and popular operettas of the modern day.” Conducted by Victor Young and using custom orchestral arrangements—not those played by the pit orchestra in the theater—the Brunswick set features two singing stars who shaped “Show Boat” both in the minds of its creators and for the show’s enthusiastic early audiences: Paul Robeson and Helen Morgan. Music critics praised the unity of Young’s collection, “obviously recorded as a unit and with great care.” And even though listening to all eight sides would have been a clunky affair at the time—involving much changing and flipping of discs—Young clearly imagined the set as a whole. The inclusion of sides titled “Overture” and “’Show Boat’ Finale” suggest a partial playing order.
