Porgy and Bess Composer: George Gershwin Section of the Work to Be
Title: Porgy and Bess Composer: George Gershwin Section of the work to be studied: ‘Summertime’ Interpretation in performance 1: Leontyne Price, from 1:11 to 4:32, Porgy and Bess: High Performance, RCA Interpretation in performance 2: Billie Holiday, The Quintessential Billie Holiday, Vol. 2: 1936, Columbia, this recording is also available on a number of compilation CDs. Score: Summertime, single for voice and piano. Alfred Publishing. (AP.VS5985) The following notes are designed to inform discussion. They are not to be considered as representative of the VCAA or amuse. The notes are to be used as starting points. Paul Curtis 2009 Briefly: Gershwin completed the work in September 1935 following 20 months of work. The show opened on 30 September 1935 at Boston’s Colonial Theatre. The show opened in New York at the Alvin Theatre on 10 October. The show ran for only 124 shows at the Alvin. The critical reaction was mixed and the entire monetary investment was lost. Gershwin wrote the following defense of his work: It is true that I have written songs for Porgy and Bess. I am not ashamed at writing songs at any time so long as they are good songs. In Porgy and Bess I realized that I was writing an opera for the theatre and without songs it could be neither of the theatre nor entertaining from my viewpoint. But songs are entirely within the operatic tradition. Many of the most successful operas of the past have had songs….Of course, the songs in Porgy and Bess are only a part of the whole…I have used symphonic music to unify entire scenes. -

Bolig American Discography Project UC Santa Barbara Library © 2017 John R. Bolig. All rights reserved. ii The Victor Discography Series By John R. Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

Newsletter Jump
BIG BAUD NEWSLETTER JUMP VOLUME XXXIII BIG BAND JUMP NEWSLETTER JULY-AUGUST 1994 Famous Door, where several radio broadcasts a week INTERVIEW CAPSULES spread the word about Count Basie’s exciting new band. It occurred to us that only the first subscribers to the The Scene BBJ NEWSLETTER, which began with the March- April issue o f1989, have had the advantage o f reading It was between sets at a dance featuring the Count Basie some o f the initial interviews. Rather than repeat them, Band and the guys were all outside taking a smoke and but to still give newer readers an opportunity to enjoy talking, but we caught the Count in the kitchen behind their comments, we offer these mini-interview com the ballroom. ments from two o f the music personalities featured in the first six months o f the BBJ NEWSLETTER. Basie leaned on a counter, relieving his legs of the weight, and was matter-of-fact, apparently not enjoying COUNT WILLIAM BASIE being interviewed. We later learned of his shyness, giving us the illusion that he didn’t want to be inter viewed, when in fact he later mentioned the value of such conversations. The year was 1971. The Interview Capsule BBJ: How did your theme, ONE O’CLOCK JUMP originate? CB: Well, that started in Kansas City. We were doing that number for some time without a name, and then we happned to be on the air at that time, too. We actually had a name for the tune, but it couldn’t be used in public.
