SUMMARY:The King of Jazz: Louis Armstrong
DESCRIPTION:One of the earliest trumpet sensations\, Louis Armstrong pioneered the groundwork which shifted the newly founded jazz from collective improvisation to solo performance. His distinctive singing voice was also used as an improvisatory tool\, and we owe scat singing to his list of inventions. The pairing of his unique instrumental gift and a charismatic personality won him universal and eternal appeal as the “Satchmo\,” king of all jazz aficionados.

SUMMARY:Sergei Rachmaninoff: Giant of Romanticism
DESCRIPTION:Stravinsky portrayed him as “a six-and-a-half-foot scowl\,” a man who remained aloof and pensive while creating music that was anything but introspective. Certainly he was an enigma\, both as an individual and as a composer who was equally gifted as a pianist and conductor. Rachmaninoff speculated about “chasing three hares\,” wondering whether his inability to balance his three passions might diminish his reputation. Yet in 2022\, one year shy of the 150th anniversary of his birth\, his legacy is not only intact but his works remain symbolic of all that is alluring in Western classical music. \nThrough a presentation highlighted video presentations\, archival recording (Rachmaninoff cut more than 350 discs\, both acoustic and electronic) as well as recent recordings\, experience the genius of one of the greatest composers of symphonic\, choral and piano music.

SUMMARY:Women Sing the Blues
DESCRIPTION:Although blues music was sung as an oral tradition by enslaved people on Southern plantations\,\nclassic female blues emerged early in the 20th century as a mixture of traditional folk blues and urban theater music. Dazzling\npioneers like Ma Rainey\, Bessie Smith\, Memphis Minnie\, and Mamie Smith catapulted the vocal form onto the world stage. With\nnew technologies in sound recording coupled with the advent of national radio broadcasts\, blues singers Ethel Waters\, Ella\nFitzgerald\, and Billie Holiday took blues to the next level. And the list goes on and on. Dr. Wyatt will trace the growth of the blues\nas one of America’s most popular forms of jazz using audio and visual clips from the 1920s to the present. The music is glorious.
