  • Friday, May 15 • 8:00 Pm Downtown Theatre •1035 Texas Street Fairfield
    Friday, MaY 15 • 8:00 pm Downtown Theatre •1035 Texas Street Fairfield Sponsored by Potrero Hills Landfill Sponsored by Potrero Solano Winds History n December 9, 1995, a new community band took the stage in the auditorium at Will C. Wood High School in Vacaville. Comprised of 55 volunteer musicians under the direction of Robert O. Briggs, Solano Winds performed a program of eight classic selections from the Wind Band repertoire before a very receptive audience. Briggs, the just-retired Director Emeritus of the University of California Band in Berkeley, formed the ensemble along with Bill Doherty, the first President of the organization. It was apparent to everyone in the room that this new performing group was here to stay. Now in our 20th season, Solano Winds continues to provide band members and audiences an opportunity to enjoy music making. Over the years, many things have changed: we’ve moved rehearsal spaces from Fairfield High School, to Armijo High School, to Solano Community College, to our current location at Vanden High School. Rather than using all borrowed music as we did in 1995, we now maintain our own extensive music library. And to support our growth, our donor base has grown significantly since 1995, when we started with two important donors – Gordon’s Music & Sound and the Fairfield High School Scarlet Brigade Band Boosters. During this time, though, many more things have stayed the same. Our commitment to perform high quality Wind Band literature well and to have fun while doing it has been a consistent staple of our organization.

  • “Can't Help Singing”: the “Modern” Opera Diva In
    “CAN’T HELP SINGING”: THE “MODERN” OPERA DIVA IN HOLLYWOOD FILM, 1930–1950 Gina Bombola A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Tim Carter Mark Katz Chérie Rivers Ndaliko Jocelyn Neal ©2017 Gina Bombola ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Gina Bombola: “Can’t Help Singing”: The “Modern” Opera Diva in Hollywood Film, 1930–1950 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Following the release of Columbia Pictures’ surprise smash hit, One Night of Love (1934), major Hollywood studios sought to cash in on the public’s burgeoning interest in films featuring opera singers. For a brief period thereafter, renowned Metropolitan Opera artists such as Grace Moore and Lily Pons fared well at the box office, bringing “elite” musical culture to general audiences for a relatively inexpensive price. By the 1940s, however, the studios began grooming their own operatic actresses instead of transplanting celebrities from the stage. Stars such as Deanna Durbin, Kathryn Grayson, and Jane Powell thereby became ambassadors of opera from the highly commercial studio lot. My dissertation traces the shifts in film production and marketing of operatic singers in association with the rise of such cultural phenomena as the music-appreciation movement, all contextualized within the changing social and political landscapes of the United States spanning the Great Depression to the Cold War. Drawing on a variety of methodologies—including, among others, archival research, film analysis, feminist criticisms, and social theory—I argue that Hollywood framed opera as less of a European theatrical art performed in elite venues and more of a democratic, albeit still white, musical tradition that could be sung by talented individuals in any location.

  • DENNIS M. SPRAGG December 2017 Dedicated to the Glenn Miller
    PREPARED BY: DENNIS M. SPRAGG December 2017 Dedicated To The Glenn Miller Birthplace Society Clarinda, Iowa An Historic Collaboration Jerry Gray (Generoso Graziano) Discovering the Pearls Arranger Jerry Gray (Generoso Graziano) was born in Boston, Massachusetts July 3, 1915. He was a virtuoso violinist, arranger and ultimately a bandleader. By 1939, Gray was the chief arranger and musical collaborator for Artie Shaw, the clarinet superstar who lead the top dance band in the United States. During that very important year in musical history, Glenn Miller’s band was coming on fast as a competitor to Shaw and other leading bands led by. among others, Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman. During the summer and early fall of 1939, Artie Shaw became disenchanted with the music business and was the subject of a public controversy regarding his pointedly negative opinion of “jitterbugs”. Some of Shaw’s musicians and arranger Gray became concerned that their employer might soon disband to take a break and possibly reorganize in 1940. The talented drummer Buddy Rich accepted a job offer from Tommy Dorsey and effervescent saxophonist and vocalist Tony Pastor was rumored to be exploring the idea of forming his own band. Meanwhile, Glenn Miller was employing brilliant arranger Bill Finegan and free lancers including Jimmie Lunceford’s protégé Eddie Durham. Miller needed full-time arranging skill and this led the bandleader to seek out the possibly available and eminently qualified Jerry Gray, who was arguably the best arranger available. As it turned out, Artie Shaw walked off the bandstand at the Hotel Pennsylvania’s Café Rouge in November 1939.
