SUMMARY:The Ragtime Craze!
DESCRIPTION:Although ragtime music was first heard at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893\, it took another seven years for the syncopated music to become the rage of the new century. Scott Joplin wrote the bulk of the most-remembered classical piano rags\, but dozens of other composers vied for his recognition. From Kansas City came James Scott and Joseph Lamb who arrived in New York City from across the river in New Jersey. But then the barons of the music publishing industry on Tin Pan Alley flooded the market with cheap imitations which soured the buyers of sheet music. Ragtime music was finished by 1917\, the year that Joplin died. This program includes scores of archival recordings and clips\, as well as live performance by Robert Wyatt.

SUMMARY:The Enigmatic Life of Frank Sinatra
DESCRIPTION:Sinatra’s career took flight from the Rustic Cabin in Englewood Cliff\, NJ\, when trumpeter Harry James rescued him from the ranks of singing waiters in 1939. Yet not until Tommy Dorsey coaxed him into his band later that year did Sinatra begin to soar as the idol of the bobby-soxers. Within three years\, he led the male singer polls in both Billboard and Downbeat magazine and by 1946 his discs for Columbia Records were selling 10 million copies a year. \nThe evening’s fare will also sample Sinatra’s forty-year movie career. Teaming with Gene Kelly in two early films\, Anchors Away and On the Town\, Sinatra appeared in fifty-six films including From Here to Eternity\, in which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Enjoy clips from those films and others including Guys and Dolls with Marlon Brando\, Pal Joey co-starring Rita Heyworth and Kim Novak\, The Manchurian Candidate and two of Cole Porter’s movie scores\, Can-Can and High Society\, which paired Sinatra with his childhood idol\, Bing Crosby.

SUMMARY:Gilbert and Sullivan
DESCRIPTION:The musical theatre of the Victorian era radiated the brilliance of librettist W. S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan and to the works they jointly created. Between 1871 and 1896 they collaborated on fourteen comic operas of which H.M.S. Pinafore\, The Pirates of Penzance and The Mikado are among the best known. Along with Gilbert’s clever and fanciful words\, Sullivan added melodies which could convey both humor and pathos. Together\, their brilliance of form and composition opened the doors for the pioneers of the American musical theater who emerged early in the twentieth century.

SUMMARY:The Enigmatic Frank Sinatra
DESCRIPTION:Baritone Frank Sinatra was indisputably the 20th century’s greatest singer of popular song. Though influenced by Bing Crosby’s crooning\, and by learning from trombonist Tommy Dorsey’s breath control and blues singer Billie Holiday’s rhythmic swing\, Frank Sinatra mainstreamed the concept of singing colloquially\, treating lyrics as personal statements and handling melodies with the ease of a jazz improviser. His best work is standards —Cole Porter\, Irving Berlin\, Jerome Kern\, and the Gershwins —but Sinatra\, despite his 1957 denunciation of rock & roll as degenerate\, has recorded songs by the likes of Stevie Wonder\, George Harrison\, Jimmy Webb\, and Billy Joel. Not only did his freely interpretive approach pave the way for the idiosyncrasies of rock singing\, but with his character a mix of tough-guy cool and romantic vulnerability\, he became the first true pop idol\, a superstar who through his music established a persona audiences found compelling and true.

SUMMARY:Irving Berlin: the Last Troubadour
DESCRIPTION:It was truly a “ragtime to riches” path chosen by the immigrant Russian Jew Israel Baline. A teenaged waif slumming an existence in the Bowery during the earliest years of the twentieth-century\, Irving Berlin\, as he was later known\, began writing songs before he knew how to read music. A self-taught and rather pathetic pianist\, he morphed into a genuine musical icon by the age of 23 and remained the standard bearer for all songwriters until his death at the age of 101. Perhaps Jerome Kern describes it most succinctly: “Irving Berlin has no ‘place’ in American music—Irving Berlin IS American music.”

SUMMARY:Andrew Lloyd Webber: A Master of Marvel
DESCRIPTION:British composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has created a global empire unrivaled in the history of musical theatre. In 1983\, he was the first composer to have three musicals simultaneously on Broadway and in London’s West End\, a feat he duplicated five years later. The New York production of The Phantom of the Opera\, which opened in 1988\, is now nearing 12\,000 performances and was joined this season by a Broadway revival of another of the composer’s megahits\, Cats. \nLloyd Webber’s phenomenal successes can be attributed to a particular blend of showmanship and superb craft—the genesis of which began in childhood. The son of professional musicians\, he also possessed passions for architecture\, history\, mechanics\, and staging\, which fostered in him an ability to envision productions of astonishing complexity and grandeur. \nHis early collaborations with lyricist Tim Rice—Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat\, Jesus Christ Superstar\, and Evita—launched his career as an innovative musical force\, and long-running shows like Cats and Phantom turned him into an international phenomenon. Glenn Close stars in a revival of another of his biggest hits\, Sunset Boulevard\, on Broadway next season. \nThere have also been some disappointments and failures along the way—among them Starlight Express\, By Jeeves\, and the recent Stephen Ward—and the long-awaited sequel to Phantom\, Love Never Dies received mixed reviews and a West End run of just a year and a half. Nonetheless\, tours and revivals of Lloyd Webber’s shows continue to fill theaters around the world\, and compositions such as “Memory\,” “I Don’t Know How to Love Him\,” “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina\,” and “The Music of the Night” are among of the best-known and loved musical theatre songs. \nJoin music specialist Robert Wyatt as he raises the curtain on a lively evening that examines and celebrates Andrew Lloyd Webber’s theatrical artistry\, filled with clips and recordings that cover the full range of his career from his earliest to most recent works. \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Music of Jerome Kern
DESCRIPTION:Jerome Kern might be best remembered for Showboat\, his epoch-launching 1927 musical\, or for “almost” writing the music for Porgy and Bess and Annie Get Your Gun. The irascible Dorothy Parker (“And\, oh how I do like Jerome Kern’s music!”) knew him as an enlightened Jazz Age tunesmith and fourteen-year-old Richard Rodgers queued at the Standard Theatre on upper Broadway over a dozen times to be enchanted by Kern’s Very Good Eddie. \nYou will be guided through Kern’s life in New York and California\, sixty years that produced over 700 songs in more than 100 works for stage and film. Delight in some of his immortal tunes—”A Fine Romance\,” “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes\,” “All the Things You Are\,” “The Way You Look Tonight”—and enjoy samplings of live piano performance\, personal correspondence\, film clips and recordings of the masterworks which established Jerome Kern as the musical giant who laid the cornerstone for American musical theatre.

SUMMARY:The Music of Jerome Kern
DESCRIPTION:Jerome Kern might be best remembered for Showboat\, his epoch-launching 1927 musical\, or for “almost” writing the music for Porgy and Bess and Annie Get Your Gun. The irascible Dorothy Parker (“And\, oh how I do like Jerome Kern’s music!”) knew him as an enlightened Jazz Age tunesmith and fourteen-year-old Richard Rodgers queued at the Standard Theatre on upper Broadway over a dozen times to be enchanted by Kern’s Very Good Eddie. \nYou will be guided through Kern’s life in New York and California\, sixty years that produced over 700 songs in more than 100 works for stage and film. Delight in some of his immortal tunes—”A Fine Romance\,” “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes\,” “All the Things You Are\,” “The Way You Look Tonight”—and enjoy samplings of live piano performance\, personal correspondence\, film clips and recordings of the masterworks which established Jerome Kern as the musical giant who laid the cornerstone for American musical theatre.

SUMMARY:Cole Porter: Sophisticate of American Song
DESCRIPTION:His energy was unparalleled\, his charisma addictive and the monikers inevitably attached to his name — dilettante\, hedonist\, snob — were simply tossed off with an impish smile and a shrug while the tunes continued to spin magically from his fingertips. For whatever Cole Porter was as a person\, his reputation as a quintessential creative genius has never been questioned. \nWalk through Porter’s life on Broadway and in Hollywood\, 40 years that produced 33 stage shows and almost 20 films. Rare archival film clips and recordings of original cast members\, including Ethel Merman\, Fred Astaire\, Patricia Morison\, Gertrude Lawrence\, Mary Martin\, Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby\, are featured along with Porter himself singing and playing “You’re the Top\,” which he was.

SUMMARY:The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets\nBritish composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has created a global empire unrivaled in the history of musical theatre. In 1983\, he was the first composer to have three musicals simultaneously on Broadway and in London’s West End\, a feat he duplicated five years later. The New York production of The Phantom of the Opera\, which opened in 1988\, is now nearing 12\,000 performances and was joined this season by a Broadway revival of another of the composer’s megahits\, Cats. \nLloyd Webber’s phenomenal successes can be attributed to a particular blend of showmanship and superb craft—the genesis of which began in childhood. The son of professional musicians\, he also possessed passions for architecture\, history\, mechanics\, and staging\, which fostered in him an ability to envision productions of astonishing complexity and grandeur. \nHis early collaborations with lyricist Tim Rice—Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat\, Jesus Christ Superstar\, and Evita—launched his career as an innovative musical force\, and long-running shows like Cats and Phantom turned him into an international phenomenon. Glenn Close stars in a revival of another of his biggest hits\, Sunset Boulevard\, on Broadway next season. \nThere have also been some disappointments and failures along the way—among them Starlight Express\, By Jeeves\, and the recent Stephen Ward—and the long-awaited sequel to Phantom\, Love Never Dies received mixed reviews and a West End run of just a year and a half. Nonetheless\, tours and revivals of Lloyd Webber’s shows continue to fill theaters around the world\, and compositions such as “Memory\,” “I Don’t Know How to Love Him\,” “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina\,” and “The Music of the Night” are among of the best-known and loved musical theatre songs. \nJoin music specialist Robert Wyatt as he raises the curtain on a lively evening that examines and celebrates Andrew Lloyd Webber’s theatrical artistry\, filled with clips and recordings that cover the full range of his career from his earliest to most recent works.

SUMMARY:We've Grown Accustomed to Lerner & Loewe
DESCRIPTION:In temperament\, personality and background\, Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe were perhaps the most dissimilar of all of the great songwriting teams. Yet together they penned some of the most original and successful musicals written during the Golden Age of Broadway\, hits beginning with Brigadoon in 1947 and ending with Gigi in 1973. Between those bookends fell Paint Your Wagon\, the blockbuster My Fair Lady which made Julie Andrews an over-night sensation\, and Camelot\, pairing Ms. Andrews with a young Richard Burton. Often at odds with each other personally\, their resulting music was both inspired and enduring. \nLearn the origins of immortal songs like “Almost Like Being in Love\,” “Thank Heaven for Little Girls\,” “I Could Have Danced All Night\,” “If Ever I Would Leave You\,” and “They Call the Wind Mariah\,” explore their film adaptations\, while delving into the personal lives of the songwriting team\, underscored with correspondence\, testimonials and film footage.
