    o one quite had a N career to parallel Margaret Whiting’s. Most major stars of her genera- tion followed a pattern sim- ilar to the Great American Songbook itself: they had hit singles in their 20s and 30s, then made deeper and, gener- ally, more artistically profound albums in their 40s and 50s, and, by the time they were in their 60s and upwards, had become elder statesmen. With Whiting, it was if much of the middle section – Act II – was missing. She was revered, by younger singers especially, as something even more than an elder stateswoman, but she was a highly accessible, super friendly, incredibly down-to- earth living legend. I’ve often witnessed the look on a young singer’s face when she real- ized that Queen Margaret was in the house – it was, indeed, like a royal audience – but Maggie’s own pres- ence was never intimidating. She made it her business to know every singer in the jazz and cabaret rooms in New York even into the 21st century, and she inspired and encouraged all of them. Yet one wonders, how much did they actually know about Margaret Whiting? She was a major role model to them, but compared to comparable figures from the swing and early post- war era, like Jo Stafford or Peggy Lee, singers and indeed, listen- ers in the last few decades of Whiting’s life had relatively few opportunities to actually listen to the full expanse of Whiting’s recorded work. The young sing- ers who tried to impress her at Margaret, Jo Stafford, Peggy Lee Danny’s Skylight Room on West 46th Street undoubtedly had heard “My Ideal” or “Moonlight in Vermont,” but, unlike Stafford or Lee, there was remarkably little Maggie easily avail- able in the long-playing era, few greatest hits anthologies and even fewer original albums.

    TD Jazz Concerts John Pizzarelli and Freddy Cole: Celebrating the centenary of Nat King Cole @ 100 Thursday, February 14, 2019 at 8:00pm Pre-concert Talk at 7:00pm This is the 913th concert in Koerner Hall John Pizzarelli, vocals & guitar Mike Karn, bass Konrad Paszkudzki, piano Freddy Cole, piano & vocals Elias Bailey, bass Randy Napoleon, guitar Quentin Baxtor, drums John Pizzarelli World-renowned guitarist and singer John Pizzarelli, established as one of the prime contemporary interpreters of the Great American Songbook, has expanded that repertoire by including the music of Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Tom Waits, Antônio Carlos Jobim, and The Beatles. Having concentrated on the music of Paul McCartney, Johnny Mercer, and Frank Sinatra over the last two years, Pizzarelli has returned to the bossa nova of Jobim with his 2017 release Sinatra & Jobim @ 50. With co- vocalist Daniel Jobim, grandson of the legendary Brazilian composer, the two explore songs Sinatra and Jobim recorded, as well as add new songs flavoured with the spirit of the classic Francis Albert Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim album. Pizzarelli has toured North America, South America, Asia, and Europe, performing shows centered on Frank Sinatra’s centennial, the songs of Johnny Mercer, and a McCartney program, in which his quartet is joined by strings and a horn section. He also tours on a double bill with pianist Ramsey Lewis. While plenty of jazz greats influenced his work, Nat King Cole has been Pizzarelli’s hero and foundation over the last 25 years. He devoted two albums to his music, Dear Mr.

  • Song of Songs Case SS Class Part 7
    Solomon and Sinatra: The Song of Songs and Romance in the Church Robert Case A Sunday School Class Faith Presbyterian Church Tacoma, Washington 2016 Part 7 Turning to an allegory from the American Songbook, I have two selections: “Ghost Riders in the Sky” "Ghost Riders in the Sky" is an allegorical song written in 1948 by the prolific Stan Jones. Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as the top western song of all time! Those of us from Ellensburg love this song. The song tells the allegorical folk tale of a lone cowboy who has a vision of “red-eyed, steel-hooved” cattle thundering across the sky, being chased by the spirits of Hell-bound cowboys. One cowboy warns our loner, like Dives in Luke 16:27, that “if he does not change his ways today,” he will be doomed to join them, forever "trying to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies". The song lyrics also have a faint echo of Deuteronomy 33:26, “There is none like God, O Jeshurun, who rides through the heavens to your help, through the skies in his majesty.” I Kings 8:47, “if they turn their heart in the land to which they have been carried”; “Psalm 68:33, “to him who rides in the heavens, the ancient heavens; behold, he sends out his voice, his mighty voice.” and Psalm 7:12, “If he does not turn, [God] will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.” Mr. Jones also wrote the music for the popular John Wayne western films The Horse Soldiers, The Searchers, Rio Grande and the television series Cheyenne, starring the Christian actor, Clint Walker.

  • Pioneers of the Concept Album
    Fancy Meeting You Here: Pioneers of the Concept Album Todd Decker Abstract: The introduction of the long-playing record in 1948 was the most aesthetically signi½cant tech- nological change in the century of the recorded music disc. The new format challenged record producers and recording artists of the 1950s to group sets of songs into marketable wholes and led to a ½rst generation of concept albums that predate more celebrated examples by rock bands from the 1960s. Two strategies used to unify concept albums in the 1950s stand out. The ½rst brought together performers unlikely to col- laborate in the world of live music making. The second strategy featured well-known singers in song- writer- or performer-centered albums of songs from the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s recorded in contemporary musical styles. Recording artists discussed include Fred Astaire, Ella Fitzgerald, and Rosemary Clooney, among others. After setting the speed dial to 33 1/3, many Amer- icans christened their multiple-speed phonographs with the original cast album of Rodgers and Hammer - stein’s South Paci½c (1949) in the new long-playing record (lp) format. The South Paci½c cast album begins in dramatic fashion with the jagged leaps of the show tune “Bali Hai” arranged for the show’s large pit orchestra: suitable fanfare for the revolu- tion in popular music that followed the wide public adoption of the lp. Reportedly selling more than one million copies, the South Paci½c lp helped launch Columbia Records’ innovative new recorded music format, which, along with its longer playing TODD DECKER is an Associate time, also delivered better sound quality than the Professor of Musicology at Wash- 78s that had been the industry standard for the pre- ington University in St.

What: Performing in concert When: Friday, December 11 | 8:00 PM Where: Schultz Cultural Arts Hall of the Oshman Family JCC in Palo Alto, CA Why: Pizzarelli has been called “madly creative” by the Los Angeles Times and “the genial genius of the guitar” by the Toronto Star. After his smash success with the Boston Pops, he was hailed by the Boston Globe for “reinvigorating the Great American Songbook and re-popularizing jazz.” The Seattle Times called him “a tour de force” and “a rare entertainer of the old school.” Using performers like Nat “King” Cole, Frank Sinatra and Joao Gilberto and the songs of composers from Richard Rodgers, George Gershwin to James Taylor, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Lennon & McCartney as touchstones, John Pizzarelli has established himself as one of the prime interpreters of the Great American Songbook and beyond, bringing to his work the cool jazz flavor of his brilliant guitar playing and singing. In addition to being a bandleader and solo performer, John has been a special guest on recordings for major pop artist such as James Taylor, Natalie Cole, Kristin Chenoweth, Tom Wopat, Rickie Lee Jones and Dave Von Ronk, as well as leading jazz artists like Rosemary Clooney, Ruby Braff, Johnny Frigo, Buddy DeFranco, Harry Allen and, of course, Bucky Pizzarelli.

  • 1 POPULAR MUSIC in the MERCER ERA, 1910-1970 Building Bridges
    1 POPULAR MUSIC IN THE MERCER ERA, 1910-1970 Building Bridges: Hank Williams and the Hit Parade (Draft version submitted November 2010) By Dr. Steve Goodson University of West Georgia Carrollton, GA Hank Williams is widely regarded as the archetypal country music singer, songwriter, and performer. Phenomenally successful during his brief lifetime, he has become -- in the nearly six decades since his death -- something of a national cultural institution. He appeared on a U.S. postage stamp in 1993, he was the focus of a Smithsonian Institution symposium in 1999 – the first country artist to be so honored – and he was the subject of a documentary featured on the PBS American Masters series in 2004. When Mercury Records released a 10-CD compilation of his work – The Complete Hank Williams – the groundbreaking set received substantial reviews from a remarkable array of prestigious mainstream publications, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Village Voice, and the Times and the Guardian of London. Fans – most of them too young to remember Williams personally, continue to trek to his grave in his hometown of Montgomery, Alabama, often visiting as well as the city's Hank Williams museum and the nearby Williams statue. Artists continue to record his songs, not only in the country field, but in a variety of genres – Norah Jones and Van Morrison being recent examples. The enduring popularity of and ever-growing esteem – even reverence – for this star- crossed performer are remarkable given that his recording career lasted but six years, and that he did not live to see thirty years of age.

I’ve long been musically embarrassed those abominable lyrics to color his opinion of the melody, by The Star Spangled Banner, even though I still feel vestiges which in itself is perfectly adequate or better. When Sarah of pompous pride stir in my blood when I’m required to play Vaughan sang The Star Spangled Banner, it became a thing of it. (The bass line is better than the melody.)
