Cabinet 2010 2010 THE MONTICELLO CABINET ��TH ANNIVERSARY This ball of liberty, I believe most piously, is now so well in motion that it will roll round the globe. THOMAS JEFFERSON, 1795 Thomas Jefferson’s design for a spherical sundial was realized by the Restoration Department. The updated chrome yellow Dining Room, sponsored by Polo Ralph Lauren, demonstrates Jefferson’s appreciation for high style. ­­­THE THOMAS JEFFERSON FOUNDATION Thomas Jefferson championed the enduring ideals of personal liberty, religious freedom, and the illimitable freedom of the human mind. His greatest legacy, the Declaration of Independence, continues to inspire people all over the world. There is no better place to discover the genius of Jefferson than at Monticello, his three-dimensional autobiography. The only house in America recognized as a World Heritage site, Monticello is an international treasure visited by close to half a million people each year. Monticello is owned and operated by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, a private nonprofit organization that purchased the house and grounds in 1923. Today its facilities also include the Thomas Jefferson Visitor Center and Smith EducationC enter, the JeffersonL ibrary, the Robert H. Smith InternationalC enter for JeffersonS tudies, the Saunders-Monticello Trail, and the Thomas Jefferson Center for Historic Plants. The mission of the Foundation is straightforward: preservation and education, to save and to share. Open since April 2009, the Thomas Jefferson Visitor Center and Smith Education Center has transformed our visitors’ experience. They are staying longer and learning more as they watch the film, Thomas Jefferson’s World, tour interactive exhibitions, enjoy a meal and shopping, admire the Gold LEED-certified design, and simply relax in the courtyard. Students of all ages benefit from classrooms and galleries, including the youngest learners who take part in hands-on activities in the Griffin Discovery Room.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE e have much to anticipate as Wwe advance the Foundation’s commitment to preservation and education by steadily and creatively expanding the scope of our efforts on the mountaintop and beyond. We are committed to providing a historically accurate, comprehen- sive, and lively experience for everyone who comes to Monticello. We also seek to engage a global audience in a dialogue with Jefferson’s ideas. Our plans for the adaptive reuse of “Repose,” the historic 1908 house on Montalto, are well underway. Jefferson’s other mountain will soon be a world-class education and conference center bringing people together to explore the power and range of Jefferson’s ideas.

We extend our genuine thanks to Monticello, one of the world’s greatest treasures. all those who have provided Cabinet-level support to Monticello over the years. The refurnished South Pavilion features printed cotton and silk bed hangings. “...the haven of domestic life” NEW PERSPECTIVES ON LIFE AT MONTICELLO he best way to understand Thomas Jefferson is to explore Monticello, the world that he inhabited and created.A t this TCabinet Retreat we call attention to our latest achievements— the brilliant chrome yellow Dining Room, South Pavilion, Wine Cellar, Kitchen, and a new exhibition, Crossroads: Domestic Work at Monticello. To reveal Monticello more accurately, we have widened our lens on Jefferson’s world. Our interests extend upstairs, downstairs, and outside the house. Curators, historians, and archaeologists have taken on roles as detectives, scientists, and set designers to create animated tableaux of life within the house and across the plantation. Scholarly examination of the documentary and physical record, the important ongoing restoration of the house and grounds, and the acquisition of original objects enable us to share insight into life at Monticello. Our restoration projects serve as stages for Jefferson and the many others who lived, worked, and visited Monticello. The fashionable chrome yellow Dining Room with its reinstalled art collection is a vivid backdrop for learning about the “half Virginian, half French” cuisine described by Daniel Webster in 1824, Monticello’s informal dining customs, the notably “excellent order “of Jefferson’s grandchildren, the purposeful display of art in the room, and Jefferson’s predilection for vegetables. In the Wine Cellar, visitors learn not only about how Objects associated with Martha Jefferson Randolph and her daughters include a cloth housewife (for sewing equipment), two silver thimbles, watches, an ivory needlebook, and An Introduction to Linear Drawing. bottles traveled in trolleys from cellar to a lady’s maid and seamstress; and Priscilla Hemings, a nursemaid Dining Room in the restored dumbwaiter who, according to an overseer, “took charge of all the children that (with its original weights) but also about were not in school.

  • Forgotten Splendour
    FORGOTTEN SPLENDOUR A Chronology of the North Shore Music Festival 1909 to 1939 by Andrew Cottonaro Beginning in 1909 and lasting until 1939, the North Shore Music Festival of Northwestern University was a significant musical and social event in the Chicago area. For a few days each Spring, the campus hosted a diverse body of performers in a series of grand concerts. Naturally, some of that era’s most eminent singers could be heard there. Their presence certainly helped to sell tickets and their artistry helped to sustain the festival as a popular and critical success. Now, sixty years later, the festival hardly even counts as a faded memory. To date, two books (in part), offer a general outline of the festival’s history, but both lack any detailed analysis of who appeared and what was actually sung. This is the first attempt to present a chronology of the vocal offerings (quite distinct from the orchestral offerings) at the festival. Northwestern University, the official sponsor of the festival, is located in Evanston, Illinois (USA). The town is a suburb of Chicago, directly north of the city and on the banks of Lake Michigan. Because of this geographic position, Evanston and the other cities of the area are called the North Shore, hence the origin of the festival’s name. Northwestern University was incorporated in 1850 and gradually won recognition for its academic excellence. The establishment of musical studies, however, was a tangled web of many failed efforts. In a final and desperate attempt to salvage musical education, the university’s board of trustees in 1891 appointed Peter Christian Lutkin (1858-1931) to direct musical studies, a post that he held until his death.

  • Carousel of American Music”--George M
    “Carousel of American Music”--George M. Cohan, Irving Berlin, Johnny Mercer, Arthur Freed, Shelton Brooks, Hoagy Carmichael, others (September 24, 1940) Added to the National Registry: 2015 Essay by David A. Banks (guest post)* Ann Ronell Gene Buck William William Grant Still I In September 1939, New York's Mayor Fiorello La Guardia ran into Gene Buck, President of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). Buck and La Guardia talked about the war in Europe, which was adversely affecting the New York World's Fair (1939-1940), with many nations dismantling their pavilions. The Mayor wondered if something could be done to take New Yorkers' minds off the war news. Buck mentioned that ASCAP was observing its 25th anniversary. ASCAP was founded to collect royalties for its membership by licensing their works for public performances. ASCAP's membership includes the greatest names in popular and classical music. La Guardia suggested a series of concerts to celebrate the anniversary. Buck agreed saying, “We will put on a show for you the likes of which has never been seen anywhere.” The “New York Times” ran a frontpage story, “Gala Week of Free Music in City to Be Held to Allay Gloom of War.” “We'll having everything from ballads to opera,” said the mayor, “from symphony to swing, and the program will be a monument dedicated to art and to peace.” The Gala Week was a hit, with ASCAP members continuing to give concerts until the end of the Fair. Concurrently, the Golden Gate International Exposition was being held in San Francisco on Treasure Island.
