McWilliams Store, which also functioned shelter for newcomers, and even as a place of wor- and ncatclkecL ship. At that time, the bank had no charter no capital structure. All banking transactions were based on faith in the character of McWilliams. and consisted of deposits against which Mc- Williams would issue his personal check upon present-day bank request I not unlike the (ML2IS) drafts). The first regular depositor, inci- dentally, was Hugh Thompson ; his grand- son: today, is one of the bank's officers. Until its incorporation in 1006, the Bank of Dwight was a private bank: even today, the capital stock remains in the McWilliams family, with the Ifi&sm the exception of shares held by bank's officers and directors.

  • Maria Callas · Performance Annals 1934
    MARIA CALLAS PERFORMANCE ANNALS AND DISCOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION These annals began in 1988 as a few notes scribbled to a computer in Boulder Colorado when the first pirates of the live performances appeared on compact disc. The inconsistency of performance dates and other details on those early CDs prompted me to do further research that began with John Ardoin’s The Callas Legacy. Later, yearning to know what had been performed between all those recorded performances, I borrowed the book containing Arthur Germond’s performance annals from the University of Colorado Music School Library, and have continued to work on the project to this day. Performance annals allow us to comprehend the scope of an artist’s career, and knowing the programme of all participants in a recital is important. I realize that presenting entire programmes from the student years in Athens seems excessive, but I feel it enhances our understanding of the environment where Maria Callas lived and studied in her youth. This chronology is a compilation of the research of many people. The work of a few has been almost heroic in scope: Arthur Germond was the first to publish detailed annals representing all cast changes; John Ardoin was perhaps the first to compile annals and to comprehensively analyze the recorded performances, indeed these annals began their life as a tabular version of Legacy; Poly´vios Marsán was the first to present programme information from the Greek school days and early career in Athens; Níkos Petsális-Diomídis has published the most comprehensive analysis of any singer’s formative years ever undertaken, indeed one-thousand pages covering a seven year period 1938-1945 with emphasis on early musical experience and training, as well as the politics and the climate of the times.
