There just didn’t Executive Director seem to be time to squeeze in what had become a Carneige Carnegie Hall tradition, a free holiday concert Maggie Forbes, x8 for the community. So Voces Solis performed in early January, a new tradition was established. Interim Library Director/Archivist “The concert literally brought me to tears,” says ACFL&MH Executive Director Maggie Forbes. The Nate Wyrick, x5 primarily a cappella concert included songs that ranged from medieval carols to contemporary works. Music Hall/ “Voces Solis’ sound was breathtakingly lovely.” Rental Manager, Voces Solis, will perform a free end-of-the-holidays concert at the ACFL&MH on Saturday, January 3 Geoff Zak, x6 at 2:00 p.m. The concert will be followed by a dessert reception. Curator, Capt. Thomas Espy Post Voces Solis is an offshoot of The Summer Singers, which prior to last year’s ACFL&MH concert, had Diane Klinefelter, x9 confined their performances to that season. The group is made up of professional musicians, music educators Public Services Manager and singers who performed with elite choirs in college, but have had little opportunity to perform since Katie Byerly, x6 graduating. The Summer Singers’ goal is “to elevate our own standards of musicianship while rekindling our ACFL&MH Website & love for music making, enabling us to pass this fire on to our students and fellow musicians.” Social Networks www.carnegiecarnegie.org Becki Toth is one of the co-founders of The Summer Singers, a choral group that marked its fourth Youtube: AndrewCarnegieFree anniversary last summer. Toth is best known to ACFL&MH audiences as one of the standout singer/actors of Facebook: CarnegieCarnegie and the Library & Music Hall’s resident theater company, Stage 62. Since joining the group in 1997, she has Carnegiecarnegiemusichall been involved with 33 Stage 62 productions: as a leading lady, as a director or as a member of the ensemble. Voces Solis’ free Yuletide Concert is a great opportunity to introduce children to live choral music and to the Music Hall.

Combined with the Espy Post, they will make the Library & Music Hall a truly compelling Civil War experience. Denise and I are proud to do this.” The photographs will be on display indefinitely in the newly named Lincoln Gallery—previously the Reception Hall — adjacent to the Espy Post. The Lincoln Gallery opens on President’s Day, February 16, 2015. This collection of 100 photographs of Abraham Lincoln ranges from an 1847 daguerreotype to the only photograph of Lincoln in his coffin, taken on April 24, 1865. The original photographs were taken by Matthew Brady, Alexander Gardner and Alexander Hessler among others. The collection belonged to Norman Schumm, a fine arts photographer by avocation (and a Navy pilot, then a corporate pilot for PNC by vocation). He had worked with Stefan Lorant in his photographer capacity on three editions (1975, 1980 and 1999) of this landmark book, Pittsburgh: The Story of an All American City.

  • Tommy Dorsey 1 9
    TOMMY DORSEY 1 9 4 6 Prepared by: DENNIS M. SPRAGG CHRONOLOGY PART 1 - CHAPTER 12 Updated November 28, 2017 January 1946 INSIDE ORCHESTRAS – MUSIC “There has been considerable discussion in N. Y. about the reports of a fire at the Vogue Record Laboratories in Detroit, which is claimed to have destroyed masters of Art Mooney's first disks for that company. Apparently the feeling is that the first story was just an "out" for the company to evade promised release dates due to its inability to start production. Fire story, however, is on the level. Beside Mooney's masters, four sides by Charlie Shavers were destroyed. Shavers, trumpeter with Tommy Dorsey's band, had cut four jumpers with a small band.”1 TD – MCA SPAT LOOKS SETTLED “Tommy Dorsey's difficulties with Music Corp. of America, which led the leader several weeks ago to order MCA to stop booking his orchestra,, have been smoothed over. Dorsey and MCA execs had one or two meetings during the past week during which the differences were patched up. This was one dispute between the leader and MCA that was kept almost completely under cover. Its cause is still vague, although it is known that the friction was over money, not over the bookings. At any rate, Dorsey is again being submitted by the agency. He has nothing booked following the current Capitol theatre, N. Y. run and may go straight to the Coast after its completion. Incidentally, the, new contract between RCA Victor and Dorsey has been completed, It's a three-year deal, effective yesterday (Tues.) and replacing an old deal that still had more than a year to run.
