Download or read book Czech Songs in Texas written by Frances Barton and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On any weekend in Texas, Czech polka music enlivens dance halls and drinking establishments as well as outdoor church picnics and festivals. The songs heard at these venues are the living music of an ethnic community created by immigrants who started arriving in Central Texas in the mid-nineteenth century from what is now the Czech Republic. Today, the members of this community speak English but their songs are still sung in Czech. Czech Songs in Texas includes sixty-one songs, mostly polkas and waltzes. The songs themselves are beloved heirlooms ranging from ceremonial music with origins in Moravian wedding traditions to exuberant polkas celebrating the pleasures of life. For each song, the book provides music notation and Czech lyrics with English translation. An essay explores the song’s European roots, its American evolution, and the meaning of its lyrics and lists notable performances and recordings. In addition to the songs and essays, Frances Barton provides a chapter on the role of music in the Texas Czech ethnic community, and John K. Novak surveys Czech folk and popular music in its European home. The book both documents a specific musical inheritance and serves as a handbook for learning about a culture through its songs. As folklorist and polka historian James P. Leary writes in his foreword, “Barton and Novak take us on a poetic, historical, and ethnographic excursion deep into a community’s expressive heartland. Their Czech Songs in Texas just might be the finest extant annotated anthology of any American immigrant/ethnic group's regional song tradition.”
Download or read book Fever written by Peter Richmond and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2006-03-21 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""I learned courage from Buddha, Jesus, Lincoln, and Mr. Cary Grant." So said Peggy Lee, the North Dakota farm girl who transformed herself - with the help from some of the greatest musical artists of her time - into one of the most glamorous, distinctive, and important singer-songwriters ever to step into a spotlight. Einstein adored her. Duke Ellington dubbed her, simply, "the Queen." Often compared to her lifetime friend Frank Sinatra, she sang jazz, swing, bebop, ballads, rock and roll, the blues. Peggy Lee created drama, character, and poetry as an actress might - without ever losing the beat. With her silky whisper and platinum cool she sold 20 million records, made more money than Mickey Mantle, and helped create American music's greatest generation." "With Fever, Peter Richmond delivers the first biography of Lee - a portrait of a lady that is, above all, a portrait of an artist. It begins, in the Depression's hard days, with a kid named Norma, born with nothing but the wide open plains. Her mother died when she was only a child; her father drank and her stepmother beat her. But the music on the radio, from faraway cities, gave her a dream that would never fade. One day she hit the road, hoping that the music she loved would lead her someplace better. It did - to a new name and new towns where, in the midst of the great war, a gallery of brilliant innovators like Benny Goodman (who is often credited with discovering her) were ushering in a brand-new beat, a sound that would change American lives. Peggy Lee became on of the girls who sang with the bands, traveling the country with the jazzmen on buses and late-night trains." "Richmond traces how Peggy rose, right along with jazz itself, to become a star, an unstoppable hit-maker, and a lyricist whose soul-searching imagery paved the way for women who wanted to write their own songs. For Lee, there would ultimately be four marriages, a daughter, a one-woman Broadway show, Europe, the Waldorf, Vegas, Basin Street East, Ciro's, the White House, an Oscar nomination, more than a few lovers, and friends like Bing Crosby and Judy Garland (who called Peggy her favorite singer). There would be a mansion high in the California hills and a thousand and one nights of her name in lights. Yet beneath the diamonds Peggy Lee was and would always be Norma Deloris Egstrom, insecure, always looking for acceptance, perfection, and love."--BOOK JACKET.
