Download or read book It All Started with a Trombone written by Bill Nemoyten and published by Foolish Tree. This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bill Nemoyten has educated and entertained thousands of people all over the U.S. for over seventy years. And how did it all start? With a beat up loaner trombone and free lessons from his Cleveland public school. That one opportunity started him down a road he is still on at age eighty-four. Along the way, he spread his love of music to generations as a music teacher, arts advocate and administrator and as a performer in Ohio, Illinois and the San Francisco Bay Area. In "retirement," Bill created The Hornman Show, an educational and entertaining extravaganza involving sixteen horns from around the world, jokes, funny hats, fake noses and, of course, music. He also started writing his memoirs which became this book. Many stories like "Trombone" and "Learning to Teach" are about the experience of being a music lover and teacher back when arts programs were fully funded and valued, giving a rare historical perspective on the decline of arts education and its ramifications. But there are also stories about being a twelve-year-old soda jerk, being the father of rebellious teenagers in the 1960's, visiting a Bay Area clothing-optional retreat, spending a memorable weekend with Victor Borge (and encounters with many other famous folks) and finding out when he was sixty-two that his father wasn't really his father! The book is enhanced by more than one hundred photographs, newspaper clippings and other memorabilia from Bill's family, friends and former students. One thing is certain. The Hornman's life continues to be full of surprises. As Bill's friend and colleague, the multiple award-winning composer and conductor, Dr. Thom Ritter George points out in his Introduction, "Unlike many who desperately cling to the known fixtures of their lives, Bill embraces change and is open to following new developments when they arise." This openness to life's adventures and joy in new experiences is what makes Bill Nemoyten's life stories not only entertaining and educational, but a rich source of wisdom and historical perspective for generations to come.

Download or read book God s Trombones written by James Weldon Johnson and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 1927 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational sermons of the old Negro preachers are set down as poetry in this collection -- a classic for more than forty years, frequently dramatized, recorded, and anthologized. Mr. Johnson tells in his preface of hearing these same themes treated by famous preachers in his youth; some of the sermons are still current, and like the spirituals they have taken a significant place in black folk art. In transmuting their essence into original and moving poetry, the author has also ensured the survival of a great oral tradition. Book jacket.

Download or read book Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry written by Kevin Mungons and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From tent revivals to radio and records with a gospel music innovator Homer Rodeheaver merged evangelical hymns and African American spirituals with popular music to create a potent gospel style. Kevin Mungons and Douglas Yeo examine his enormous influence on gospel music against the backdrop of Christian music history and Rodeheaver's impact as a cultural and business figure. Rodeheaver rose to fame as the trombone-playing song leader for evangelist Billy Sunday. As revivalism declined after World War I, Rodeheaver leveraged his place in America's newborn celebrity culture to start the first gospel record label and launch a nationwide radio program. His groundbreaking combination of hymnal publishing and recording technology helped define the early Christian music industry. In his later years, he influenced figures like Billy Graham and witnessed the music's split into southern gospel and black gospel. Clear-eyed and revealing, Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry is an overdue consideration of a pioneering figure in American music.
