Tim Arbabzadah Editor-in-Chief Brian May and Roger Taylor from Queen were at Imperial in Metric on Tuesday 5 March to unveil a plaque commemorating their fi rst public per- formance, which took place in the Un- ion Concert Hall. Th e event was greeted with much enthusiasm by all present, with Paul Beaumont, Union President, giving in a speech in the traditional rock and roll attire of a suit. Beaumont said: “We’re very proud of Imperial Col- lege Union’s musical past, including the small role we played in the Queen story. It’s a privilege to host a plaque commemorating the band’s fi rst Lon- don performance here and to wel- come them back here today.” Th e event was a music Heritage Award from PRS for Music. Brian May said: “Th e fi rst proper gig we did was at Imperial College in the Union Hall. I remember it very distinctly because I’d seen all sorts of people playing in there. I’d been part of the Entertain- ment Committee and we booked a group every Saturday night in those days. People like Spooky Tooth and Steamhammer! We booked Jimi Hen- drix too. So for us it was a dream come true to actually play on that stage. It used to get packed in there so it was a major stepping stone for us.” Roger Taylor continued: “Imperial College was eff ectively our positional and spir- itual base and means a lot to Queen. Sponsored Editorial Many good memories, without it... who knows?”. Guy Fletcher 0BE, PRS Chair, said: “Loved by millions the world over, More student cuts they were often thought of as the People’s Band.

  • Begleitheft Heinz Von Hermann
    Begleitheft zu „Standard Time” The Great American Songbook und seine Bedeutung im Jazz von Heinz von Hermann © Kurzes Vorwort: Mehrere Gründe haben mich veranlasst zu diesem Konzert/Workshop dieses kleine Begleitheft zu verfassen. Zum einen gibt es über das „Great American Songbook” (GAS) so viel zu erzählen, dass dies den Rahmen eines einzelnen Konzertes sprengen würde, wir kämen ja gar nicht mehr dazu auch Musik zu spielen. Allein über George Gershwin gibt es schon so viele Bücher, für Harold Arlen oder Cole Porter gilt Gleiches. Ursprünglich waren für „Standard Time” ja eine Anzahl von Konzerten geplant, aber um dieses Projekt zum Laufen zu bringen war es einfach nötig, erst einmal eine Art komprimiertes Pilotprojekt zu starten. Gleiches gilt natürlich auch für die Musik. Vom Œvre Harold Arlens oder George Gershwins allein ließen sich ja allein eine Unzahl von Konzerten bestreiten. In Folge dieser Kompression musste ich natürlich den Umfang der Textbeiträge wie leider auch die Musikbeiträge deutlich beschränken. Dieses Heftchen gibt mir damit die Möglichkeit die historischen und biografischen Zusammenhänge etwas ausführlicher zu behandeln als ich das verbal während des Konzerts machen könnte. Zum Anderen mag es für Sie als Konzert-/Workshopbesucher ja auch interessant sein, die von mir erzählten Geschichten später noch einmal nachlesen zu können. Was ist das „Great American Songbook” ? Als „Great American Songbook” (GAS) wird meist eine nicht genau festgelegte Anzahl herausragender Songs der amerikanischen Popularmusik bezeichnet, meistens aus der Zeit von den 1920er bis 1960er Jahren stammend. Sie sind Teil des stilistisch und zeitlich weiter ausgelegten „Classic Pop” oder „Traditional Pop” (für den die Grammy Awards vergeben werden), also vor der „Rock and Roll Aera”.
