  • Thomas Rees Memorial Carillon 59Th Festival Thematic Summer Concerts May 19 - August 25
    JUNE 3 - 6 2021 2021 Live Stream CARILLON INTERNATIONAL 1 THOMAS REES MEMORIAL CARILLON MEMORIAL REES THOMAS 59TH 59TH FESTIVAL FESTIVAL THEMATIC SUMMER CONCERTS MAY 19 - AUGUST 25 AUGUST - 19 MAY CONCERTS SUMMER THEMATIC INTRODUCTION What a year! 2020 was one for the books! Since nobody knew how to adjust to the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020, the International Carillon Festival 2020 was cancelled. Fortunately, the Park District decided to continue the Thematic Wednesday Evening Summer Concerts which proved to be the correct choice. These concerts had record attendance and were more popular than ever. The concerts attracted new listeners and fans and both Rees Carillon and Washington Park had a resurgence of popularity as visitors from Springfield & afield rediscovered the joys of outside activities. Once word spread of our continuing carillon concerts, parking lots filled and overflow parking was needed. Adding live-streaming of these concerts was a tremendous asset as listeners from around the world began tuning in weekly. Many former Springfield residents tuned in, reconnected with us and shared fun memories about the carillon and their time in Springfield. An oft-repeated comment was that the 2020 Thematic concerts contained great variety and music familiar to wide audiences. This year, 2021, marks the 60th anniversary of the Thomas Rees Memorial Carillon. To celebrate the anniversary, the Rees Carillon Society/Carillon Belles commissioned Mr. Frank DellaPenna to write a work for carillon. Many will recognize Mr. DellaPenna from his travelling carillon show, “Cast in Bronze,” which performed in the International Carillon Festival in 2012. His new work, “Seasons Suite,” consists of four individual movements written in New Age style.

  • Issues of Originality and Ownership in Relationship to Elzie Crisler Segar's Popeye the Sailor Man Stephen Smith
    Issues of Originality and Ownership in Relationship to Elzie Crisler Segar’s Popeye the Sailor Man Stephen Smith 1 Elzie Crisler Segar’s Popeye the Sailor Man is one of the most recognizable characters in American fiction. He was not the creation of one man but rather the product of a particular place, time and culture. Segar worked within an established tradition and was supported by the newspaper and film industries that depended on the approval of their intended audiences for survival. The newspaper comic strip was a relatively new phenomenon when Segar entered the field, the landscape had already been established and his contributions would not include inventing any new language or unique art form. What Segar did accomplish was to create a world of screwball comedy and engaging characters that satisfied the needs of the American public looking for escape from the hardships of the Great Depression. In 2008, with the widespread acceptance of postmodern art theory, it is redundant to speculate on whether or not comic strips are an art form. This is an issue only relevant to modernism. It was the high standards and professional competition along with the nurturing environment provided by industries that freed artists such as Segar from the burdens of business and allowed them to prosper. Segar’s Popeye existed within two well-established genres and his adventures provided one of the primary themes for both the newspaper comic strip and the animated movie when these art forms reached a level of quality that has not been achieved since. Thimble Theatre, the comic strip that Popeye was featured in, was originally published in William Randolph Hearst’s New York Journal American.
