Yellow and Orange Delivery Back to Business Flyers
Did you know... The citrus industry began in San Bernardino County in 1857 when Anson Van Leuven planted six orange trees on his farm and people drove miles to get them.Captain Nathaniel Pishon planted the first large grove in the area, and Lewis Cram planted 1,500 trees in 1874. The first National Orange Show in 1911 was held in a tent on the corner of 4th and “E” Street to promote the citrus industry. It was the brainchild of Harry Parkins who brought the idea to W.W. Brison who was the president of the San Bernardino Chamber of Commerce. The popularity of the National Orange Show grew so the second show in 1912 moved to its new location on 2nd and “E” Street. The directors of the Orange Show needed a permanent home so they bought 42 acres at Mill and “E” Street. In July 1949, the Exhibition Building constructed in 1925 was destroyed by a fire. It was almost 100,000 square feet and was the largest structure of its type in California. The stadium was developed by the National Orange Show and the federal government in 1935 as an “unemployment relief project”. Its construction provided employment for hundreds over a two-year period. Bob Hope and Tex Ritter were among the silver screen celebrities appearing on the entertainment stage in 1951. Hope performed for 13 consecutive years. Did you know... The Swing Auditorium was built in 1949 and named after California state senator, Ralph Swing. Swing was one of the founders of the first National Orange Show in 1911 and served as manager and later board president.

How Our Cultural Roots Inform Musical Heritage and Shape America's
How our cultural roots inform musical heritage and shape America’s sense of identity Music has an enduring power. Countries often call upon composers to create music that helps shape a national identity. To write music that captures America, many composers took inspiration from the folk music, spirituals and work songs of the African-American experience. By transforming these melodies and rhythms into art songs and symphonic works, composers remind us of the timeless relevance of music in our lives. Moreover, the presence of these authentic melodies in orchestral works acknowledges the role of music in shaping a national identity. Join us as we honor our classical American roots. Joseph Young, Conductor Dvorák’s landmark “New World Symphony” n the 1890’s, people in America were searching for music that might reflect their national identity. At the same time, of course, they were asking “what is America?” and “what does it mean to be American?” IOrchestral music of the day often imitated a grand European tradition. Could there be a uniquely American “sound”? Did we have music that conveyed a sense of America? Would American composers ever achieve Henry “Harry” T. Burleigh: recognition in the world? The Man Who Introduced Dvor˘ák to Spirituals To address those questions,˘ a visionary woman named Jeannette Thurber planned a As a young boy, new National Conservatory of Music in New York City, and sought to recruit an important American European composer to oversee the conservatory and hopefully to elevate the caliber composer of American music. She set her sights on a Czech composer named Antonin Dvor˘ák Henry (1841-1904) [pronounced di-VOR-zhak].

Q&A: Vancouver Singer Luisa Marshall Is Simply the Best
Q&A: Vancouver singer Luisa Marshall is simply the best BY FRANCOIS MARCHAND, VANCOUVER SUN NOVEMBER 26, 2015 true Luisa Marshall (as Tina Turner) poses with singer Selena Gomez after a taping of Ellen in October 2015. Photograph by: Picasa, Handout Hail The Queen: A Tribute to Tina Turner Nov. 26, 8 p.m. | Edgewater Casino Stadium Club Tickets: $39.95 plus charges at brownpapertickets.com Wait, is that Tina Turner catching a plane? Did she just run into that washroom over there? You can forgive many for having followed Vancouver singer Luisa Marshall as she hopscotches around the globe, thinking she was Turner herself. Heck, even pop star Selena Gomez fell for it after a taping of Ellen in October where Marshall was introduced as the singer. The crowd fell for it too, jumping to its feet to give Marshall a loud standing ovation. Marshall had been invited to stand in for Tina as a member of Ellen’s “squad” in a skit poking fun at Taylor Swift’s entourage. (Ironically, Marshall rubbed shoulders with Swift when she attended the Golden Globes in 2014.) Marshall, who was never identified by her own name on Ellen, joined a crew that included Gomez, Nick Carter, Bob Harper (of television show The Biggest Loser), members of the original cast of Full House and comedian Carrot Top. A local singer and TV host on Shaw community television — Simply The Best, where she hosts musicians, artists, cooks and other inspirational figures — Marshall has been impersonating the famous singer for more than two decades. She is performing at the Edgewater Casino on Nov.

Songs of the Century
Songs of the Century T. Austin Graham hat is the time, the season, the historical context of a popular song? When is it most present in the world, best able Wto reflect, participate in, or construct some larger social reality? This essay will consider a few possible answers, exploring the ways that a song can exist in something as brief as a passing moment and as broad as a century. It will also suggest that when we hear those songs whose times have been the longest, we might not be hearing “songs” at all. Most people are likely to have an intuitive sense for how a song can contract and swell in history, suited to a certain context but capable of finding any number of others. Consider, for example, the various uses to which Joan Didion is able to put music in her generation-defining essay “Slouching Towards Bethlehem,” a meditation on drifting youth and looming apocalypse in the days of the Haight-Ashbury counterculture. Songs create a powerful sense of time and place throughout the piece, with Didion nodding to the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Quick- silver Messenger Service, and “No Milk Today” by Herman’s Hermits, “a song I heard every morning in the cold late spring of 1967 on KRFC, the Flower Power Station, San Francisco.”1 But the music that speaks most directly and reverberates most widely in the essay is “For What It’s Worth,” the Buffalo Springfield single whose chiming guitar fifths and famous chorus—“Stop, hey, what’s that sound / Everybody look what’s going down”—make it instantly recognizable nearly five decades later.2 To listen to “For What It’s Worth” on Didion’s pages is to hear a song that exists in many registers and seems able to suffuse everything, from a snatch of conversation, to a set of political convictions, to nothing less than “The ’60s” itself.
