  • PK 2 Hamburg Beatles History.Pdf (253.4
    MEDIA INFORMATION NO HAMBURG, NO BEATLES: THE HISTORY OF THE FAB FOUR IN HAMBURG From the evolution of the Hamburg Sound to today’s club scene On 17 August 1960, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Stuart Sutcliffe and Pete Best played their first gig at the Indra Club in the legendary St Pauli district of Hamburg. Mark Lewisohn, the acclaimed Beatles author, aptly commented “No Hamburg, no Beatles”. The Beatles, some of whom were still minors in the beginning, spent two years in Hamburg, with only a few breaks in between. Here, they laid the foundations for their global career. Following their debut in 1960, the Beatles played in Hamburg more often than anywhere else in the world – with 300 concerts, five contracts with four different music clubs, and about 1,200 hours spent on Hamburg stages. John Lennon once said “I grew up in Liverpool but I came of age in Hamburg”, and this is arguably the story of the Beatles in Hamburg in a nutshell. It all began with a shock. When The Beatles got their first engagement in Hamburg on the 17th of August 1960, they where full of anticipation. The Hanseatic City was considered to be the perfect place to make good money by giging. And the Reeperbahn was the incarnation of adventure for those naive from Liverpool. Where nowadays countless cutting-edge music clubs line the neon bright streets, back in the day, the audience craved for all night entertainment – especially for exciting music, such as Rock‘n‘Roll and it‘s British exports.

    Comunicato stampa “Astrid Kirchherr with the Beatles” The Beatles, Hugo Haase, 1960 ©GINZBURG FINE ARTS/PHOTO ASTRID KIRCHHERR Inaugurazione sabato 14 aprile 2018 – ore 18.00 Dal 15 aprile al 17 giugno 2018 Fondazione Carispezia via D. Chiodo 36, La Spezia Fondazione Carispezia inaugurerà sabato 14 aprile (ore 18.00) presso i propri spazi espositivi la mostra “Astrid Kirchherr with the Beatles”, una retrospettiva che ripercorre la storia degli anni formativi dei Beatles nell’Amburgo del dopoguerra – i cosiddetti “Hamburg Days” – attraverso gli scatti della fotografa tedesca che non solo immortalò il gruppo negli anni iniziali della carriera, ma ne influenzò profondamente lo stile trasformandolo in quello che tutti oggi conosciamo. Fondazione Carispezia Via Domenico Chiodo 36 - 19121 La Spezia Tel. 0187 77231 – Fax 0187 772330 www.fondazionecarispezia.it L’esposizione, a cura di ONO arte contemporanea in collaborazione con Ginzburg Fine Arts, sarà visitabile fino al 17 giugno e presenterà una ricca serie di scatti, la maggior parte in bianco e nero: dal primo vero e proprio servizio fotografico del gruppo a momenti privati che ripercorrono la stretta relazione tra i Beatles e la fotografa, oltre che la storia di un luogo e un periodo fondamentale per la band che ha cambiato la storia della musica pop. Nell’agosto del 1960 l’impresario tedesco Bruno Koschmider scritturò i Beatles, una giovane band di Liverpool composta da John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Pete Best e Stuart Sutcliffe, per suonare rock’n’roll in alcuni dei club da lui gestiti sulla Reeperbahn, ad Amburgo. Una delle tante sere in cui suonavano al Kaiserkeller, andarono a sentirli la giovane fotografa Astrid Kirchherr – allora assistente del celebre fotografo Reinhart Wolf – e il suo fidanzato di allora Klaus Voormann.

  • ASTRID Kirchherr the Beatles
    ASTRID Kirchherr with The Beatles Introduzione di Vladislav Ginzburg 2 3 The Beatles al luna park, 1960 INTRODUZIONE Astrid Kirchherr, talentuosa studentessa d’arte e moda nell’Amburgo del dopoguerra, raggiunse l’apice della sua carriera come fotografa all’inizio degli anni ’60. La sua creatività e il suo gusto estetico plasmarono l’immagine dei Beatles agli albori del loro successo. Allieva del grande fotografo Reinhart Wolf, Astrid Kirchherr fece conoscere a tutto il mondo il look della sua Amburgo, roccaforte europea del beat e del rock and roll. Quando incontrò John, George, Paul, Peter e soprattutto Stuart Sutcliffe, i membri della band conosciuta come I Beatles, Astrid non immaginava quali e quanti cambiamenti la sua vita avrebbe subito. L’obiettivo di Astrid seguì questi teenager fino ad accompagnarli all’età adulta, ritraendoli in scatti caratterizzati da maestria tecnica e precisione della composizione, come solo Astrid avrebbe saputo fare. Ma la sua è una storia che insegna quanto velocemente possano cambiare le cose. Alcuni fatti tragici misero alla prova la giovane fotografa: la morte di Stuart Sutcliffe, suo fidanzato, e il peso di essere identificata come “la fotografa dei Beatles” furono le ragioni alla base della sua decisione di abbandonare la carriera fotografica. Ho conosciuto Astrid Kirchherr nella primavera del 2012 durante un viaggio ad Amburgo, circa sei mesi dopo aver iniziato a gestire il suo vasto archivio fotografico. Dopo un primo incontro formale, ci siamo seduti in privato a bere qualcosa nello splendido Kemps English Pub vicino all’Alster, dove ci siamo conosciuti, ed è lì che ho ascoltato per la prima volta le incredibili storie dietro le sue fotografie.

  • Beatles History – Part One: 1956–1964
    BEATLES HISTORY – PART ONE: 1956–1964 January 1956–June 1957: The ‘Skiffle Craze’ In January 1956, Lonnie Donegan’s recording of “Rock Island Line” stormed into the British hit parade and started what would become known as the ‘skiffle craze’ in Great Britain (vgl. McDevitt 1997: 3). Skiffle was originally an amateur jazz style comprising elements of blues, gospel, and work songs. The instrumentation resembled New Or- leans street bands called ‘spasms,’ which relied on home-made instru- ments. Before skiffle was first professionally recorded by American jazz musicians in the 1920s and 1930s, it had been performed at ‘rent parties’ in North American cities like Chicago and Kansas City. Many African- American migrant workers organized rent parties in order to raise money for their monthly payments (vgl. Garry 1997: 87). Skiffle provided the musical entertainment at these parties, as everybody was able to partici- pate in the band, which usually consisted of home-made acoustic guitars or a piano backed by a rhythm section of household instruments, such as a washboard, a washtub bass, and a jug (vgl. McDevitt 1997:16). Jazz trumpeter and guitarist Ken Colyer pioneered the skiffle scene in Great Britain. In 1949, he formed the Crane River Jazz Band in Cran- ford, Middlesex, together with Ben Marshall (guitar), Pat Hawes (wash- board), and Julian Davies (bass). Their repertoire included skiffle songs “to illustrate aspects of the roots of jazz and to add variety to a pro- gramme” (Dewe 1998: 4). After leaving the group in 1951, Colyer mi- grated to the United States to work with jazz musicians in New Orleans.

  • My Favorite Painting Is a Photograph
    98 MY faVORITE paintinG PHOTO: ANTHONY SCARLATI PHOTO: Richard Courtney A uthor, Realtor, Beatles Fan y favorite painting is a photograph. It is M an image created by German photographer Astrid Kirchherr taken in Hamburg, Germany, in the art studio of her fiancé Stuart Sutcliffe. The subjects of the photograph are members of Stuart’s rock and roll band that had come to Hamburg two years prior, in 1960, having been unable to find work in Liverpool, England. This band called themselves the Beatles and were a rough, unpolished, crude lot upon their arrival. The group consisted of Stuart Sutcliffe, Pete Best, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and a 17-year-old George Harrison. In Hamburg, they were hired to perform under the worst of conditions, playing before drunken sailors, prostitutes, and drug dealers in the German town still rife with animosity and anger over World War II. Stuart was the best friend of John, the leader of this band, who had met Stuart when both attended the Liverpool College of Art. It was in Hamburg that the band tightened and George Harrison and John Lennon evolved into the act that would take the world by This photograph is my favorite as it captures the confidence of John Lennon as storm. But Stuart chose to leave the Beatles in he prepared to embark upon his conquest of the world, the pain he was order to dedicate his life to his art. He enrolled in experiencing at the loss of his closest friend who himself was making a name for the Hamburg College of Art where he studied under himself in the world of art, and the disappointment that they would not be able the renowned pop artist Eduardo Paolozzi, who had to share their future.

  • The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A
    The British Invasion: Finding Traction in America by Piacentino Vona A thesis presented to the University Of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2018 © Piacentino Vona 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract As a period of American History, the 1960s has provided historians and academics with a wealth of material for research and scholarship. Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon, the Vietnam War, the hippie era, and the Civil Rights Movement, among other topics have received thorough historical discussion and debate. Music was another key aspect in understanding the social history of the 1960s. But unlike the people and events mentioned above, historians have devoted less attention to music in the historical landscape. The British Invasion was one such key event that impacted America in the 1960s. Bands such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who found their way into the United States and majorly impacted American society. Using secondary sources, newspaper articles, interviews and documentaries on these bands, this thesis explores the British Invasion and its influence in the context of 1960s America. This thesis explores multiple bands that came in the initial wave. It follows these bands from 1964-1969, and argues that the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who shared common multiple factors that allowed them to attain the traction to succeed and to maintain that success in the United States.
