BENNETT, ROBERT RUSSELL
"THE BROADWAY SOUND" The Autobiography and Selected Essays of Robert Russell Bennett. Ed by George J. Ferencz
The remarkable career of composer-orchestrator Robert Russell Bennett (1894-1981) encompassed a wide range of both "legitimate" and popular music-making in Hollywood, on Broadway, and for television. Bennett is principally responsible for what is known world-wide as the "Broadway sound" and for greatly elevating the status of the theatre orchestrator. He worked along side Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Irvin Berlin and Richard Rogers on much of the Broadway canon, eventually providing orchestrations for all or part of more than 300 musicals between 1920 and 1975. This work as the first publication of Bennett’s autobiography, which was written in the late 1970s. It also includes eight of his most important essays on the art of orchestration. — George J. Ferencz is Professor of Music at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater. ISBN 1 58046 082 8

Gershwin Crazy
A bevy of reissues and retrospectives celebrate Gershwin's centennial. By Steve Cohen Gershwim, Lose or Draw: George (left)
with brother Ira
George Gershwin had a healthy high regard for his own music, and he loved playing it in concerts and at private parties. In one rare moment of doubt, he asked his friend Oscar Levant: "Do you think anyone will be playing my music 50 years from now?" and Levant replied: "If you're still alive, yes."
Well, George died at age 38, and here we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of his birth. He was born in Brooklyn exactly 100 years ago (well, depending when you picked up this copy of City Paper ), on Sept. 26. More people than ever are listening to his music, playing it and recording it. A batch of new CDs and historic reissues have come out to coincide with the centennial celebration. Here's a sampling of the most interesting of them. Gershwin made his reputation in the 1920s as a composer of Broadway shows, and the songs he wrote for them are his outstanding legacy.

THE REMINGTON SITE 7" RECORD GALLERY BACK Alec Templeton (1909-1963)
Templeton on RCA 78s The popular Templeton on Atlantic 45 RPM Remington R-199-158 Remington R-199-184 Counterpoint/Esoteric Margareth Humphrey, a piano teacher in Newport near Cardiff (Wales, Great Britain) had many pupils. One day, in the early nineteen twenties,a small, blind boy was presented to her. He came from a deprived background. Margareth immediately recognized his talent, took him under her wing and gave him lessons for free.
The young boy's name was Alec Templeton. Some music lovers know the name Alec Templeton as of the composer of "Bach Goes To Town". And if their knowledge goes a bit further they also may recall "Mozart Matriculates" and even "Scarlatti Stoops to Conga". Templeton was known as the radio and tv celebrity who in the nineteen forties and fifties regularly appeared on shows hosted by Bing Crosby, and who later had his own show called "It's Alec Templeton Time" (6/3 - 8/26/1955). The more serious collector, while consulting a record catalog for references of specific recordings, may have seen the entry under Gershwin of blind Alec Templeton's recording of "Rhapsody in Blue" with Andre Kostelanetz for Columbia in the nineteen forties. The recording was issued on two 12" shellac discs (CX-190) and on vinyl (ML-4455) and was listed in Columbia's catalog next to the famous recording of Oscar Levant with the Philadelphia Orchestra and conductor Eugene Ormandy.

Through the years much has been written about the relationship between Gershwin and Ravel. Gershwin’s desire to ascend to a more academic status as a composer led him to Paris in 1928 to study with Ravel, whom he greatly admired. As fate would have it, the pupil proved to be a great influence over the master. Ravel’s piano concertos almost directly relate to the melodic and syncopated style of Gershwin. Thus tonight, the meeting of two totally separate musical minds. We open with Ma m¨re l’oye, a suite in five separate parts, ostensibly dedicated to children, but because of the success of Beauty and the Beast on Broadway, I’ve always longed to do this suite.

A Talent for Genius, by Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger
Silver, Daniel J.
Oscar Levant is remembered chiefly for two things: his recordings of classical piano musicparticularly the works of his friend George Gershwinand his appearances as a lovably neurotic sidekick in several movies, among which the musicals An American in Paris and The Band Wagon are probably the best known. ...By the 1980's, the comic mode to which Levant gave impetus, and whose practitioners ranged from Lenny Bruce to Woody Allen, had degenerated into self-indulgence and belligerence... ...By the early 50's, both Levant's career and his life were beginning to fall apart... ...The authors make out Levant's life to be a painful, futile struggle of talent with selfdestructiveness, with the latter ultimately winning out... ...A strange kind of insecurity indeed... ...Encapsulating and recasting his experiences in book form in The Memoirs of an Amnesiac and The Unimportance of Being Oscar, Levant managed to hit the best-seller list twice again in his final creative brushes with fame... ...SUCH is the basic outline of a rich, complex, and truly surprising life, told well by the husband-and-wife team of Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger...

Glazier evokes a perfect period feel in each number when that's called for especially in the first few and that's a large part of their charm, though his most impressive "interpretations" come in the "stylized by Stan Freeman" ones which are in the modern jazz idiom, and in Gershwin's "Jazzbo Brown Blues" which the composer originally intended as a solo piano opening to his folk opera Porgy and Bess (1934) its director Rouben Mamoulian (1898-1987), who helmed many famous Hollywood films includiing Garbo's

M Gae Mar 4 2005, 12:03 AM QUOTE Yes, I'm familiar with the "Elvira Madigan" music. I forgot that. In all honesty, although I hear Mozart's Piano Concertos played a lot of the time, I'm not that familiar with any one in particular. Although beautiful sounding, at the risk of sounding a Philistine, to my ears, one Concerto does tend to sound like another when you dont know them very well. Possibly, Mozart suffers from having written too many Piano Concertos. Also, my favourite Centuries are the 19th and 20th. Thats just my personal preference. I prefer the more muscular, Romantic, Tragic Piano Concerto over the lighter, more playful kind.

Feinstein, Michael (b. 1956)
page: American pianist and singer Michael Feinstein has had a lifelong fascination with the popular music of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. He cites Al Jolson and Bing Crosby as his earliest musical influences, but among the most important were George and Ira Gershwin. An avid collector of their recordings since he was a boy, Feinstein became an archivist for Ira Gershwin, in which capacity he was able to study rare recordings and unpublished material by the Gershwins. A popular performer in clubs and on the concert tour, Feinstein has also put out twenty albums, two of which were nominated for Grammy awards. Sponsor Message.
Feinstein was born in Columbus, Ohio"not exactly a hotbed of musical activity, especially for . . . show music," as he admitson September 7, 1956, already well after the heyday of the songwriters that he would come to admire. Music was a part of Feinstein's life from his earliest days. His father, Edward Feinstein, a meat salesman by trade, was a member of the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America and took his young son along to the meetings. His mother, Florence Mae Cohen Feinstein, an amateur tap dancer, shared his father's "great passion for music," according to Feinstein.

http://www.godowsky.com/Biography/humor.html
Wit and Wisdom
selected by Jeremy Nicholas Many so-called humorous remarks by celebrated musicians fail to raise even a watery smile. Godowsky was well known for his waspish sense of humour and many of his witticisms and sagacious remarks have passed into musical folklore. Surprisingly, perhaps, the majority have stood the test of time and remain genuinely amusing. Among these is one of the most famous of all music-related anecdotes. You can find the full account of this story as the final item in this brief collection. Here for your enjoyment, in no particular order, are some of Godowsky's bon mots Oscar Levant, the pianist, composer, wit, actor and raconteur recalled in his autobiographical volume Memoirs of an Amnesiac the occasion when a film director asked him to include in a speech a quip made by Godowsky: "I don't like to go to concerts because if they're good, I'm jealous; if they're bad, I'm bored." (Levant actually refused to say the words unless he could attribute them to their author.) Godowsky moved with his family from Vienna to New York in 1914. Their first home was the Plaza Hotel. Bechstein provided Godowsky with two grands, replaced free of charge every year, and of course these had to be accommodated in his apartment. As the moving men panted and strained to move the two latest instruments, one of them paused in his efforts, mopped his brow and told their owner exactly what he thought of having to lug heavy concert grands about. "What are you complaining about?" laughed Godowsky. "You only have to move pianos. I have to move audiences."

    In this book, the hypochondriac genius of movies, radio, television, and the concert stage delivers all the neurotic humor expected. But the author, a talented writer as well as one of the great pianists of the 20th century, also succeeds at conveying the ambience of the artistic world of the 1920s through 1950s. His insights about his contemporaries, including celebrated conductors, musicians, composers, and actors, are fascinating. Laughing All The Way To The Nuthouse...

It was a story about a classical violinist (Garfield) totally, ruthlessly dedicated to his career; the alcoholic, thrice-married socialite (Crawford) who sponsors him but whose love for him brings her only despair and suicide; and the violinist's pianist friend and mentor (Levant). Waxman's arrangements of many classical works won him an Academy Award nomination. After Warners failed to contract Heifetz to the film, it was Waxman who persuaded a young Isaac Stern to play the violin on the soundtrack (in fact it is Stern's hands, arms and violin that can be seen in the numerous insert shots during performances; many of the shots were done in such a way that Stern was able to crouch beneath him and put his own fingers on the fingerboard). The album contains Waxman's exciting and often sensuous transcriptions for violin and orchestra, for the film: the
