He also taught similar courses at the Toronto College of Music, held several church organist posts in Toronto, founded the St Cecilia Choral Society of Toronto, and actively performed as a violist in the TCM's Toronto String Quartette. In 1887 he was appointed the TCM's first travelling examiner; officiating local examinations in Ontario and in Western Canada.
Mahadevan "Satha" Sathasivam (18 October 1915, Ceylon – 9 July 1977 in Colombo, Sri Lanka), or Satha as he was known, was the Sri Lankan cricketer whom Garry Sobers called "the greatest batsman ever on earth," and Frank Worrell called him "the best batsman he had ever seen".Gunasekara, C.H. (1996) The Willow Quartette, Colombo: Sumathi Publishers, p. 57 Sathasivam played cricket in the 1940s through the 1960s. Sathasivam was the first, and probably the only, man to captain three national teams.
Sugden's methods were based on those of his close friend and mentor, Benjamin Hellier—to find something in every person he could respect to use as a basis to build upon. The overall development of the students was encouraged by reading circles and the performance of plays in the college. Musicians were welcomed in Sugden's home circle where Sugden himself would play the cello in a quartette. Sugden gathered distinguished scholars and involved them in the life of Queen's College.
A revised version was performed in Munich on 14 March 2011 in a chamber concert of the Bavarian Tonkünstlerverband (Musical Artists' Association). The soloist was again Watts, who also premiered Bernd Redmann's Migrant for bassoon and string quartet, and played the first of four quartets for a woodwind instrument and string trio, called "Finnische Quartette", by Jörg Duda. The string players, besides the composer, were members of the Münchner Philharmoniker, Clément Courtin, Namiko Fuse and Konstantin Sellheim. The quintet is in preparation to be published by Zimmermann.
It has been the site of at least eight known shipwrecks, including the Japanese Wiji Maru, SS Quartette, and most recently the M/V Casitas, which ran aground on the reef in 2005. The atoll is an important habitat for seabirds, marine life, and invertebrate species. Twenty-two bird species nest and breed on the islands, including twenty percent of the world's population of black-footed albatrosses. The atoll has historically been included with the rest of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands in conservation efforts.
He played both the guitar and mandolin. He sang in the choir at St. David's Episcopal Church and became a member of the "Hill City Quartette", a group of young men who sang at gatherings and serenaded young women of the town. The Porter family, early 1890s – Athol, daughter Margaret, William Porter met and began courting Athol Estes, 17 years old and from a wealthy family. Historians believe Porter met Athol at the laying of the cornerstone of the Texas State Capitol on March 2, 1885.
In the early 20th century, the town attracted many enthusiasts of what were known as the New Thought Movement. In 1905 the Weltmer Auditorium was the site of the Fifth Annual Convention of the New Thought Federation, held on September 26–29, 1905. Ernest Weltmer, eldest son of Sidney A. Weltmer, was Secretary of the Federation and helped open the convention. Among the several speakers from across the country was Grace Mann Brown, and entertainment was provided by singers including the Weltmer Quartette. Mrs.
The Dinwiddie Quartet is believed to be the first black vocal quartet to record on disc. Some scholars incorrectly believed the Dinwiddie Quartet recordings to be the earliest surviving black vocal group recordings of any kind, but prior recordings had been made on wax cylinder by the Unique Quartette, a decade earlier. All six tracks recorded for Victor survive to the present day. Scholars regard these recordings, especially "Down On The Old Camp Ground", as key documents in the recorded history of black jubilee music.
Having narrowly avoided injury, her Boston unveiling came on 18 January 1907 to wide acclaim. The Boston Transcript wrote: “Her interpretation was poetic, supplying that indispensable sense of imaginative atmosphere essential to Grieg, while containing precisely that right pitch of bravura abandon, of dramatic sensuousness which the concerto demands. Her rhythm is incisive, full of fire, and yet, when the occasion demands, elastic.” Violinist Franz Kneisel was present and immediately engaged her to play with his Kneisal Quartette at further concerts in Boston and New York.
The third and final Toronto String Quartette was formed in 1906 with Frank Blachford as the first violin, Roland Roberts on second violin, violist Frank Converse Smith, and cellist Frederic Nicolai. The group gave its first performance on 23 January 1907. Blachford was the only member to stay with the group for its entire duration. Other members included second violinists Benedict Clarke (1914–1923), Erland Misener (1923), and Albert Aylward (1924); violists Alfred Bruce (1923) and Erland Misener (1924); and cellist Leo Smith (1914-mid-1920s).
The discovery of gold in Searchlight, Nevada in 1897 led to a gold rush in the area. In 1900 the Quartette Mining Company was formed and two years later the area was booming with activity and peaking in 1907 at a population of 5,000. It was at the peak of this boom that the Barnwell & Searchlight Railway was formed. The railway was constructed between May 1, 1906 and March 31, 1907 and was built to serve the Searchlight gold mining district at Searchlight, Nevada.
The opening theme "was sung in barbershop quartet style to the tune of Mademoiselle from Armentieres" and mentioned the sponsoring product prominently. Although the singing group was not named in the program, a news brief announcing the show's launch in 1939 identified it as the Armchair Quartette. The theme's lyrics varied a bit over the years, but the basic form was as follows: > Bill Stern the Colgate shave-cream man is on the air. Bill Stern the Colgate > shave-cream man with stories rare.
2002 and Phae by Julian Doucet. Azar directed music videos for Sylvia Tyson's Quartette and for Bob Wiseman's song "Airplane on the Highway". She has directed about 20 plays; most recently, the 2010 production of The Getaway by Bruce Hunter, at the Toronto Fringe Festival. She worked as directorial assistant for the Judith Thompson productions of Perfect Pie, Habitat, Capture Me and Body and Soul, story editor, and dramaturg for other writers, Azar has also written several plays, including Satan's Mistress, The Surreal Detective vs John Nothing and Man-O-Rexic.
Harding continued managing recording for the Excelsior company until August of the following year, when he was replaced in that role by fellow recording artist William F. Hooley. He began recording around this time for the Columbia Phonograph Company (which had relocated from Washington, D.C. to New York City), Berliner Gramophone and National Phonograph Company (Edison). In addition to his own solo recordings of popular songs, Harding sang duets with Len Spencer, Steve Porter, Minnie Emmett and Myra Price, and was a member of the Spencer Trio, Imperial Minstrels and Greater New York Quartette.
Marion Weed wrote, "My only equipments for my future career were a good, natural contralto voice, an excellent piano and an inordinate love of song." She goes on to write in The Hampton's Broadway Magazine that she started with the usual musical education with a mixed ability of teachers. When she was 16, she sang in the Rochester Central Church Ladies' quartette as a contralto and for two years received "excellent" training from the organist. In 1889, she auditioned for a New York Fifth Avenue church and was selected over 40 other competitors.
She concluded her brief interlude with the Korean War on 22 April 1952 when she departed Sasebo, bound for Pearl Harbor. She arrived in Oahu on 5 May 1952 and, for most of the year, made voyages from Pearl Harbor to Eniwetok and Kwajalein in the Marshall Islands in support of Operation Ivy in progress there. She completed that service in November 1952, returning to Pearl Harbor on 21 November 1952. In January and February 1954, she operated at Midway Island with during the salvage of a grounded civilian ship, SS Quartette.
He later abandoned the clarinet entirely when he joined the Twenty-second Regiment National Guard Band, under direction of Patrick Gilmore, in 1873. This group was one of the first American military bands to include a full saxophone section based on the instrumentation of the Garde Républicaine. The busy performance schedule and willingness of Gilmore to program solo works permitted Lefebre ample opportunity to expose audiences to the saxophone, which was still relatively unknown. The full section of Gilmore’s band provided great opportunity for chamber music, and Lefebre soon formed the New York Quartette Club.
Publicity poster for Denny Dennis, the group's original backer, and the Fraser Hayes Quartet c1950. The Fraser Hayes Four, originally called The Fraser Hayes Quartette was a British close harmony vocal group, formed by the musicians Jimmy Fraser (real name Frazer Potts) and Tony Hayes in the late 1940s, disbanded in 1953, and re-formed in 1956. According to 'The Ballad Years' by Don Wicks, the four original members were Jimmy Fraser (Potts), Tony Hayes, Dave Mason and June Ellis. The group split for good in late 1969.
An old acquaintance of Coretti, Richetta G. Randolph helped to arrange her appearances in hotels, clubs, churches and other social functions around the city. On October 27, Coretti appeared in the musical cantata, “Jephthah and his Daughter” held at the Mt. Olivet Debating Club. After the performance, Toastmaster Allison presented Coretti with a gold pin as a token of appreciation for her performance. The following month, on November 28, at the Jubilee Quartette Reception held at the Hotel Maceo, Coretti beautifully performed, ‘Do not say that the grave ends all’.
In 1906, the town already boasted numerous businesses, including general stores, banks, hotels, a restaurant, school, opera house, and a newspaper, the Omemee Herald. Omemee Brick Company operated a plant three miles north of town. The town also claimed it had "one of the best brass bands in the state" at 22 members, and the only musical organization in the state with "a quartette of saxophones [sic.]". However, the lack of a townsite company to promote the town, the predicted population boom never came and the town declined in later years.
By that time, the specific phrase "rocking and rolling" was also used by African Americans in spirituals with a religious connotation. A comic song titled "Rock and Roll Me" was performed by Johnny Gardner of the Moore's Troubadours theatrical group during a performance in Australia in 1886, and one newspaper critic wrote that Gardner "made himself so amusing that the large audience fairly rocked and rolled with laughter." The earliest known recordings of the phrase were in several versions of "The Camp Meeting Jubilee", by both the Edison Male Quartet and the Columbia Quartette, recorded between 1896 and 1900.
Center for Pacific Islands Studies, University of Hawaii–Manoa. . They were also described as having “courteous ways and kindly manners”' and “low, soft speech.” The “quartette of favorites of the gods” were adept in the science of healing. They effected many cures by the “laying on of hands,” and became famous across O'ahu. When it came time for the healers to depart, there was a desire to construct a “most permanent reminder” so that “those who might come after could see the appreciation of those who had been succored and relieved of pain and suffering by their ministrations during their sojourn among them.
As a chamber musician, he commissioned and first performed in 2001 the first of four quartets for a woodwind instrument and string trio, called "Finnische Quartette", by Jörg Duda. In 2003 he premiered the Bassoon Quintet of Graham Waterhouse at the Gasteig. At the 2009 IDRS conference in Birmingham he played in several recitals, for example with bassoonist Thomas Eberhardt Lacrimosa of Louis Andriessen, Holliger's Three Pieces, Sofia Gubaidulina's Duo for two bassoons, and the premiere of Bernd Redmann's Secret doors for two bassoons and orchestra. In December 2009 he took part in the festival of contemporary music Klangaktionen in Munich.
As they walk, Tom is mortified as Jerry is interested as a giant bat-like creature appears in front of them. They come to a room where a skeleton is cleaning itself. After this point, they are sure paranormal things are happening. Odd things that happen include: ghosts standing behind them, finding a skeleton playing a piano while another skeleton dances to the music, a glove dancing, and a blackface quartette of skeletons singing a song, which includes a few lines from versions of "Golden Slippers", such as a "long white robe" and a "starry crown", and to stop gambling.
Asbury was probably born Charles Adam Alvarez to Spanish immigrants in Florida in late 1856 or early 1857, and was raised by Emanuel and Mary Asbury in Augusta, Georgia. In February 1876, Asbury appeared as Sambo in an all-black production of Uncle Tom's Cabin along with his wife Louisa Scott (as Emeline). In 1886, Asbury sung as a member of the Unique Quartette and in 1887 played banjo with the Georgia Jubilee Singers. In 1891, he began recording for the New Jersey Phonograph Company, and continued recording for the United States Phonograph Company after the bankruptcy of the North American Phonograph Company.
His repertoire consisted of minstrel songs such as "I'se Gwine Back to Dixie" and "De Gospel Raft". Although the United States Phonograph Company distributed nationally, the primitive duplicating technology in use at the time required artists to record frequently, so Asbury performed locally, with the Magnolia Quartette and Virginia Troubadours. In early 1897, Asbury recorded for the Columbia Phonograph Company, which had moved its headquarters from Washington, D.C. to New York City. In 1900, Asbury moved with his second wife, Mary Jane Jones, to Brooklyn, N.Y., and on May 26, 1903, Charles Asbury died of pneumonia in Bellevue Hospital.
Calling You Home to Me was McCormack's third recording of a composition by Francis Dorel, the first two recordings being When My Ships Come Sailing Home in 1915 and Love Bells in 1916. Neither When My Ships Come Sailing Home nor Love Bells succeeded on American Charts in their respective years. A prior recording of Calling Me Home to You sung by Oscar Seagle in March charted #4 on US charts that same year. The flip side of Seagle's rendition included a recording of There's a Long, Long Trail which Seagle recorded with the Columbia Stellar Quartette.
He was initially a saxophonist, first with the Colonial Saxophone Quartette and after 1907 in a duo with his brother; but he quickly became better known as a singer, leading The Melody Makers, a quartet managed by the Redpath agency, often on the Chautauqua circuit."Chautauqua Grounds Buzzing with Activity," The Marion [Ohio] Daily Star, August 12, 1916, p. 12. He was a high tenor and evidently possessed a fine falsetto; in 1915–16 he was featured as a "boy soprano" with Ralph Dunbar’s Bell-Ringers."Pantages Theatre," The Daily Colonist [British Columbia], December 3, 1916, p. 16.
Some of the lyrics in "Sinner Man", including "The rock cried out, 'No hiding place'", appear to derive from those in the spiritual, "No Hiding Place Down Here", recorded in 1928 by the Old South Quartette. A version of "Sinner Man" released in 1956, by Swedish-American folk singer William Clauson, credited Baxter, Holt, Cheeks and James as co-writers. Another gospel group, the Swan Silvertones, released their version of the song in 1957 on the Vee-Jay label, and folk singer Guy Carawan issued a version in 1958. Carawan wrote that he had learned the song in 1956 from Bob Gibson.
James Lord Pierpont's 1857 composition "Jingle Bells" became one of the most performed and most recognizable secular holiday songs ever written, not only in the United States, but around the world. In recognition of this achievement, James Lord Pierpont was voted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. "Jingle Bells" was first recorded by Will Lyle on October 30, 1889 on an Edison cylinder, but no surviving copies are known to exist. The earliest surviving recording was made by the Edison Male Quartette in 1898, also on an Edison cylinder, as part of a Christmas medley titled "Sleigh Ride Party".
The earliest known example of "This Train" is a recording by Florida Normal and Industrial Institute Quartette from 1922, under the title "Dis Train". Another one of the earliest recordings of the song is the version made by Wood's Blind Jubilee Singers in August 1925 under the title "This Train Is Bound for Glory". Between 1926 and 1931, three other black religious groups recorded it. During a visit to the Parchman Farm state penitentiary in Mississippi in 1933, Smithsonian Institution musicologist John A. Lomax and his son Alan made a field recording of the song by black inmate Walter McDonald.
Little Wonders were manufactured by the Columbia Phonograph Company, and were distributed exclusively by music publisher Henry Waterson (the business partner of Irving Berlin) in their early years (1914–1916) – an arrangement that has only recently been discovered as the original contract stipulated that both parties were to keep this relationship a secret.Brooks, Tim, with Merle Sprinzen, Little Wonder Records and Bubble Books, An Illustrated History and Discography, p. 8, Denver: Mainspring Press, 2011. Artists are generally uncredited on Little Wonder labels, which simply give recordings general attributions such as "band", "tenor", "quartette", or "accordion solo".
Brooks and Sprinzen, p. 31-48. Much later Columbia also issued various promotional discs in the same "small disc" numerical series, but these should not be confused with the Little Wonder label. Little Wonder #339, "The Camp Meeting Jubilee" by a male vocal "quartette", issued in 1916, contains the lyrics "We've been rockin' an' rolling in your arms / Rockin' and rolling in your arms / In the arms of Moses." This is believed to be one of the earliest uses in an audio recording of the phrase "rock ... and roll", albeit in the context of a religious spiritual.
Foot races are organized on Indian Island during Mariposa Belle excursions. Sleigh riding, sport fishing and duck hunting are also very popular solitary or small group pastimes. Music and dancing are incorporated into many secular activities, since these are often very circumscribed if not outright banned in a religious environment (except for the Salvation Army, which makes music a central part of its ministry). The uniformed town band, with at least ten members, plays its coronets every Wednesday in the municipal park. The Mariposa Quartette, the Oddfellows’ Brass Band and the Knights of Pythias band are also active.
A notable early gramophone recording was made in 1901 by Canadian singer Harry Macdonough. In the same year another popular version came out by the Big Four Quartette with vocal group members Arthur Collins, Byron Harlan, Joe Natus and A.D. Madeira (Edison 7728). It featured in Noël Coward's 1931 play Cavalcade and in the movies Lawrence of Arabia (1962), Alfie (1966) and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). The tune (with different lyrics) is also used in the modern day as "Good Old Collingwood Forever", the club song of the Australian Football League's Collingwood Football Club.
These two progressed for some time when they united under the name of the Union Musical, and under that flourished for several years, until it was changed again to the St. Louis Musical Club, of which Kriegshaber was the president. One of the objects of the organization was to encourage and aid amateur musicians, and assist them in developing talent that might lead them to a successful career. Once or twice each year they brought artists to give concerts and for many years the incomparable Kneisel Quartette performed in St. Louis under their auspices. Once a month the club held its meeting in the Musical Arts Building. Mrs.
In 1886, while managing editor of the Grafton (Nebraska) Leader, Parrish was persuaded to enter the Congregational ministry, being licensed by the Elkhorn Association and given charge of churches at Leigh and Howells, Nebraska. He was later ordained by the Blue Valley Association and held pastorates at Harvard, Nebraska, Mattoon, Illinois, Constantine, Michigan, and Marshalltown, Iowa. He was chairman of the Home Missionary Committee for Southern Illinois and one of the founders of Southern Collegiate Institute at Albion. In 1888 he stumped the entire state of Nebraska under the Republican state committee, accompanied by a double quartette of ladies, and later lectured extensively throughout many northern states.
The American Quartet was a four-member vocal group that recorded for various companies in the United States between 1899 and 1925. The membership varied over the years, but the most famous line-up -- comprising John Bieling (first tenor), Billy Murray (second tenor), Steve Porter (baritone), and William F. Hooley (bass) -- recorded for the Victor Talking Machine Company from 1909 to 1913. The same group of singers also recorded for Edison Records as the Premier Quartet (or Quartette), and for that and other labels as the Premier American Quartet. From 1912 to 1914 the quartet also recorded with countertenor Will Oakland as the Heidelberg Quintet.
Weltmer continued to expand his practice and develop his business, lecturing to several hundred people in the Weltmer Auditorium, and sponsoring the Weltmer Quartette to entertain at both local events and a 1905 convention of the New Thought Federation. He developed a mail order business of classes and treatment by mail. In his book How to Make Magnetic Healing Pay (1901), Weltmer wrote that "a thorough knowledge of Magnetic Healing alone will not bring success, financially--a knowledge of the business side of the science is necessary as well". At its height, the institute treated 400 people a day, generating a daily income of $3,600.
Gilmore would also program this quartet on band concerts, and they insisted on performing original repertoire to gain respect for the instrument. Due to the limited repertoire, Lefebre had to commission and compose new works for the saxophone. New York composer Caryl Florio was searching for performers for new works, and wrote a series of pieces for Lefebre including Introduction, Theme and Variation (1879), for saxophone and orchestra, and Allegro de Concert (1885), for saxophone quartet. The New York Quartette Club disbanded following the death of the soprano saxophonist Franz Wallrabe in 1885; however, Lefebre continued performing chamber music and formed the Lyceum Concert Club.
Peterson had toured and recorded with Quartette until early 1996, when she was diagnosed with cancer and being then unable to perform with the band during her cancer treatment, she chose her friend and collaborator Gwen Swick to fill in for her, and later died in Toronto on October 9 that year. She is interred in Little Lake Cemetery in Peterborough, Ontario. All four current members of this fine group are also well known and quite accomplished solo performers who have toured throughout Canada, having performed on Adrienne Clarkson Presents and at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival. Quartette's recordings and live performances have been reviewed favourably by The Globe and Mail, Chatelaine and Billboard.
He left over £25,000 in his will, listing Eliza as executrix. As their marriage had been bigamous, he described her as "my reputed wife Eliza Ann Booth, otherwise Eliza Ann Hoy". The obituarist for The Manchester Guardian wrote that Formby was one of the "great drolls" of the music hall whose humour "always seemed to take its rise in a sympathetic perception of human vanities and weaknesses". The Dundee Courier considered him a great comedian, made all the greater by his continuing to perform through his illness, while the drama critic J. T. Grein, writing in The Illustrated London News, thought that Formby, "along with [Harry] Lauder, Robey and [Albert] Chevalier, formed the leading quartette of the profession".
They also recorded many artists formerly associated with North American, like banjoist Vess Ossman, the Unique Quartette, Edward Clarance and Herbert Holcombe in addition to the "Greater New York Band". For most of the first year, records sold were original or master records, but in November 1896 they began manufacturing duplicates using devices made by Edison and the National Phonograph Company. The American Graphophone Company sued each iteration of Walcutt and Leeds' enterprise (among many others) to assert that phonographs could not be sold due to their incorporation of graphophone technology while they were both licensed by North American. American Graphophone sued Walcutt and Leeds in February 1897 and were granted an injunction in January 1898.
In 1938 he became principal cellist of the Toronto Philharmonic Orchestra (TPO), a position he held until the mid-1940s. Smith was appointed to the faculty of the Toronto Conservatory of Music in 1911 where he was a professor of music composition, music history, music theory, and cello performance through 1941. While there he played with two notable chamber groups in residence at the school, the Conservatory Trio in his early years and later the Conservatory String Quartet from 1929–1941. He was also a member of two notable string quartets in Toronto, the Toronto String Quartette, with whom he played in 1914, and the Academy String Quartet, with whom he played during the 1920s.
As a student, Studebaker was the male lead in the opera "King Hal," produced by his high school in Kansas City, Kansas. Studebaker served in the United States Navy in World War I. After being discharged "at an early age," he took lessons to learn to sing and play the organ and "worked respectively as a blacksmith, salesman and postal clerk -- and didn't do well at any of them." As a member of a quartet, the Night Hawks, Studebaker sang in night clubs and theaters across the United States. In his early 20s, Studebaker was a member of The Marion Quartette, which toured "under the auspices of the Redpath-Horner institute," Redpath-Horner was part of the Chatauqua movement.
De Ridder was appointed the first conductor of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in 1930, a post he held until 1941. Initially the post was part- time, as the orchestra performed only four concerts annually during its first three seasons. However, in 1933 Ridder moved to Vancouver as the orchestra's concert offerings began to expand significantly. Shortly after moving to that city he formed the chamber group the Allard de Ridder Chamber Music Quartette which he actively directed and performed with during the 1930s. In 1934 he established a summer concert series for the VSO at the newly built Malkin Bowl in Stanley Park, a venue which he was instrumental in convincing William Harold Malkin to build.
As a solo artist, Celia released Organica in 2002 and This Isn't Here (Universal) in 2006. He has played his guitar behind such acts as Ian & Sylvia, Andy Kim and Quartette, as well as indie artists Mike Evin and Michael Holt. During the summers of 2003 to 2006, Celia was an instructor at the National Guitar Workshop, including week-long songwriting workshops in Canada and at the Workshop headquarters in New Milford, Connecticut. Celia's third album, I Tried, features, among others, Joan Besen of Prairie Oyster on keyboards, Don Kerr (Ron Sexsmith, Rheostatics) and Cleave Anderson (formerly of Blue Rodeo) on drums, Gurf Morlix (Lucinda Williams) on guitar and Ben Mink (k.d.

Aaron Richmond Concert Management's roster for the 1920–21 season included pianist Felix Fox, cellist Jean Bedetti, soprano Laura Littlefield, flutist Georges Laurent, the American String Quartette, the Smalley Trio, the operatic duo of Mr. and Mrs. George Mager and the Boston Symphony Ensemble, under the direction of Augusto Vannini. In the ensuing decades, Richmond also represented soprano Claudine Leeve, violinist Carmela Ippolito, pianists Harrison Potter and Leo Podolsky, the Durrell String Quartet, tenor Joseph Lautner, the Fiedler Trio (Arthur Fiedler, violin; Alfred Hoy, harp, and Jacobus Lengendoen, cello), the Boston Sinfonietta, conducted by Arthur Fiedler, and piano and vocal folk-song duo Constance and Henry Gideon. In the early 1920s, Richmond was appointed the New England Manager of the Wolfsohn Musical Bureau, Inc.
In 1908, the club began to be led by the university faculty, although its official history still notes that this was merely an "advisory" role for over a decade later. By 1914, the club included two other groups; the Varsity Quartette and the Midnight Sons, which allowed singers to tackle barbershop and similar music requiring less singers. The "Banjo" was dropped from the name in 1905, and "Mandolin" in 1923, after which the group concentrated on vocal performances without instrumentation, becoming the University of Michigan Glee Club. The group was renamed the University of Michigan Men's Glee Club in 1938, in reference to a Women's Glee Club that had gained popularity during the 1930s, and between 1944 and 1948 was briefly known as the University of Michigan Varsity Club.
Up to her second visit to the US in August, 1880, the whole of Osgood's time was occupied; she sang at Mann's concerts, and in the aria, "Gliicklein im Thale," and in Weber's " Euryanthe". At a concert in Exeter Hall, she sang a new song composed expressly for her, entitled "Two by Two," by Nicola Ferri, and was encored several times. Osgood made her greatest hit in 1881 at the State concert given at Buckingham Palace on June 2, in an aria from "Tristan and Isolde," of Wagner, in a trio with Albani and Patey, and in a quartette from "Martha," with Patey, Guyarri, and Lasscalle. Osgood was also chosen to sing a verse from "God save the Queen," striking the top B flat with great exactness and effect.
Recommissioned 10 October 1951, Current sailed from Long Beach, California 7 December and arrived at Pearl Harbor a week later. Following a 1952 tour of duty in the Far East during the Korean War, she carried out an extensive salvage operation on the merchant ship SS Quartette off Midway Island, saving approximately 2,000 tons of grain between 23 December 1952 and 6 March 1953. During her 1953 tour of duty off Korea, Current refloated the stranded LST-578 at Cheju and in a lengthy and difficult operation salvaged the stern half of SS Cornhusker Mariner which had gone aground off Pusan. Her next Far Eastern tour in 1954 and 1955 included duty with the Taiwan Patrol, visits to Japanese ports, and participation in the Operation Passage to Freedom evacuation of refugees from North Vietnam.
While the song lyrics say it is set in "the land of San Domingo", no geographic nor anthropological accuracy is found nor intended in the silly lyrics, set in a generic "exotic" and "primitive" location. The song was much imitated over the next decade. In the era of its initial popularity, phonograph records of the number were recorded by such popular artists of the era as the All-Star Trio, The American Quartet, Nora Bayes, Frank Crumit, Billy Murray, The Premier Quartette, Esther Walker, and Margaret Young. Later recorded revivals of the number include those by Chet Atkins, Bo Grumpus (the San Francisco band of the 1990s), Eddie Condon, Stéphane Grappelli, Clancy Hayes, Keith Ingham, Spike Jones, Danny Kaye, Jeannie Carson, Lu Watters,The Travellers (band) and The Reverend Horton Heat.
In 1954, West Philadelphia High School students John Kelly (lead vocalist), John Grant, John Jones, Henry Colclugh and Bill Jackson formed the vocal group, originally performing under the moniker the Re-Vels Quartette. Their live appearances made the combo a well-attended attraction in Northern Philadelphia, which enticed Atlas Records in 1955 and Sound Records in the following year to record singles with the group. Credited to the shortened name the Re-Vels, the singles released in the two years included "So in Love", "You Lied to Me", and "Cha-Cha Toni", the latter of which was a big regional hit in Philadelphia and some other eastern cities but never charted nationally. In 1958, the Re-Vels signed with Chess Records and released "False Alarm", perhaps their most accomplished record thus far.
By 1924, Hoʻopiʻi had moved to Los Angeles, where he formed the Sol Hoʻopiʻi Trio, with Glenwood Leslie and Lani McIntyre, including sometimes additional musicians, and he successfully performed in the local and then very popular Polynesian-themed night venues. His first recordings in 1925-28 featured often jazzy improvisation. He recorded his best known material 1933 to 1938, as Sol Hoopii's Novelty Trio, Novelty Quartette and Novelty Five on Decca Records and Brunswick Records labels, like the famous Hula Girl, Ten Tiny Toes, and many more brilliant Hawaiian hula and hapa-haole songs penned by the best Hawaiian composers like Johnny Noble and Sol Bright. Originally favouring the acoustic lap steel guitar, he switched to electric lap steel only around 1935 and developed an original tuning, in addition to the open A or open G tunings commonly in use at the time.
A student at the École Niedermeyer de Paris then of Auguste-Joseph Franchomme at the Conservatoire de Paris, Gillet won the First Prize of the Conservatoire in 1874The Aeolian Pipe-organ and Its Music, 1919, p. 140. and became a cellist of the Orchestre de l'Opéra de Paris (1875–1882).Nelson James Newhard, The Newhard Piano Quartette of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania: A Story, 1946, p. 124. Solo cellist of the Concerts Colonne, the Concerts Lamoureux and the Concerts de Monte-Carlo, Gillet obtained a great success with his operetta La Fille de la mère Michel,La Fille de la mère Michel on IMSLP with a libretto by Daniel Riche in 1893 as well as with his piece Loin du bal (1888) that can be heard in the feature film The Dancing Masters with Laurel and Hardy in 1943.
Sheard has served as the music director for Stuart McLean's Vinyl Cafe touring orchestra since 1998, and has also been the music director for many CBC Radio programs, including Peter Gzowski's "Red River Rally" Morningside show. Sheard's recording history has led to over 200 records, as both solo and backup, with such artists as Rita MacNeil, Ian & Sylvia Tyson, Dan Hill, Rita Coolidge, Olivia Newton-John, Mary Margaret O'Hara, Celine Dion, Ronnie Milsap, Colm Wilkinson, Tom Paxton, Willie P. Bennett and The Henrys. Sheard has composed and/or arranged for various artists, including Murray McLauchlan, The Pointer Sisters, The Nylons, Shirley Eikhard, Andrea Martin, Caitlin Hanford and Quartette. His work has appeared on various U.S. television shows, including A&E; Biography, Sunset Beach, Sesame Street, Sesame Park, Showtime, Days of Our Lives, General Hospital and Late Night with David Letterman.
The advance sales were greater than any other city in the United States. At the Pavlowa concert, when Gooding engaged, at the last hour, the Russian dancer for two nights, the New York managers became dubious and anxiously rushed four special advance agents to assist her. On seeing the bookings for both nights they quietly slipped back to New York fully convinced of her ability to attract audiences in St. Louis, which had always, heretofore, been called "the worst show town" in the country. On the list for 1914 and 1915 there were also Mischa Elman, violinist, with Maggie Teyte, soprano, in joint recital; David Mannes, and his wife Clara Mannes (sister of Walter Damrosch), for many years concertmaster of the New York Symphony Orchestra; Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan Macy, lecturing on The Heart and Hand, and the Kneisel Quartette, Fritz Kreisler, violinist, and Elizabeth Van Endert of the Royal Opera Company of Berlin, Sir Douglas Mawson, lecturer.
The group also recorded the song for Edison, where it was credited to the Premier Quartette; the record company claimed that Will Oakland sang on the record rather than Macdonough, but according to Jim Walsh this was probably an error. In 1910, the group recorded "Casey Jones", with Victor Records orchestra leader Walter B. Rogers temporarily replacing Steve Porter. The song was very successful, "perhaps the first recording to sell over a million copies in American music history". Gage Averill, Four Parts, No Waiting : A Social History of American Barbershop Quartet, Oxford University Press, 2003, p.73 "Casey Jones" was also recorded by Billy Murray, with a chorus, for Edison Records as one of their "Blue Amberol" series. The group's recordings became hugely popular, their other early successes including "Call Me Up Some Rainy Afternoon" (with Ada Jones, 1910), "Come, Josephine, In My Flying Machine" (also with Jones, 1911), "Oh, You Beautiful Doll" (1911), "Moonlight Bay" (1912), and "Everybody Two- Step" (1912).
The Capping Sextet is a male voice ensemble consisting of six members who sing three songs during each half of the show. Earliest surviving records show a group called 'The Coons' appearing in 1903. Although it is not clear what they sang, the majority of material in the early concerts was topical. In 1905 the group was listed as the ‘Coon Tableau and Cake Walk’ and in 1906 they were called a ‘Character Quartette’. 1910 saw their number increase to a ‘Quintette’ and as early as 1911 the group was becoming famous for their topical songs. These were sometimes as long as 15 verses, with each verse commenting on a different local or campus based topic. The first time the name ‘Sextette’ was used was in 1912, however the group numbered five from 1913–1915. With the outbreak of war Capping Concerts from 1916–1918 were suspended. 1919 saw the return of the show and the return of a ‘Quintette’.
In November 2012 The Flowers presented their new show at Crocus City Hall. In the first half of the three-hour show the band performed their new modern program titled Homo Sapiens, in the second half they played remakes of their well- known hits featuring a number of guest bands including, for example, Time Machine, Voskresenie, Kalinov Most, Zvuki Mu, Zdob si Zdub, Moral Codex as well as the ex-members of the band Alexey Kozlov (Arsenal), Andrey Sapunov (Voskresenie), Alexander Solich (Moral Codex) and the Alexandrov Russian Army Ensemble, Todes ballet, Glinka Quartette, etc. In the new show Flower Power The Flowers are as different from their early records as the early The Beatles are different from their last albums. After finding their own style in the 1970s The Flowers have been developing it so that each new album brings not only new songs, arrangements and poetry but a somewhat new vision.

The alliterative phrase "rocking and rolling" originally was used by mariners at least as early as the 17th century to describe the combined "rocking" (fore and aft) and "rolling" (side to side) motion of a ship on the ocean.Morgan Wright's HoyHoy.com: The Dawn of Rock'n'Roll , 1998-2008 Examples include an 1821 reference, "... prevent her from rocking and rolling ...", and an 1835 reference to a ship "... rocking and rolling on both beam-ends". As the term referred to movement forwards, backwards and from side to side, it acquired sexual connotations from early on; the sea shanty "Johnny Bowker" (or "Boker"), probably from the early 19th century, contains the lines "Oh do, my Johnny Bowker/ Come rock and roll me over". The hymn "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep", with words written in the 1830s by Emma Willard and tune by Joseph Philip Knight, was recorded several times around the start of the 20th century by the Original Bison City Quartet before 1894, the Standard Quartette in 1895, John W. Myers at about the same time, and Gus Reed in 1908.
When Watkins took over as manager of the Detroit Wolverines in June 1885, the team had compiled a 7-31 record to that point in the season. With the infusion of talent from Indianapolis, the team improved to 34-36 for the remainder of the 1885 season. Late in the 1885 season, Detroit acquired four players from the Buffalo baseball club (Jack Rowe, Dan Brouthers, Hardy Richardson, and Deacon White) who were known as the "Big Four." The "Big Four" were "regarded for many years as the greatest quartette in the history of the national pastime." The "Big Four" joined Detroit for the 1886 season. With the addition of the "Big Four", the Wolverines improved substantially, finishing in second place with an 85-38 record in 1886. The 1887 season was the pinnacle in the history of the Detroit Wolverines. The team was loaded with hitters, including six regulars who hit above .300: Sam Thompson (.372 and 166 RBIs in 127 games), Dan Brouthers (.338 and 101 RBIs in 123 games), Larry Twitchell (.333), Hardy Richardson (.
Not surprisingly, after returning to civilian life, many chose to pursue their artistic vocations—some full-time, some as an adjunct to more stable day jobs. The troupe’s musical director, Robert J. Stannard, who as a boy attended Westminster Abbey Choir School and sang at the 1902 coronation of King Edward VII, returned to Uxbridge and his career as an organist. In 1940, he moved to Frome in Somerset where he was appointed organist and choir master for St John's Church and head of music at the Frome Grammar School for Boys and Girls. In July 1919 William Threlfall (Queenie) returned to Liverpool where he found work as a pianist with various dance bands. He played in gigs as far afield as the Isle of Man and Saarbrucken with groups such as the Estrella Quartette, Sam Lawson’s “Elite” Orchestra, and Jack Briggs and his Band. In 1926, Threlfall went to sea as a band musician—a career that would see him sail on many of the great White Star and Cunard transatlantic liners, from the RMS Baltic to the RMS Mauretania to eventually the RMS Aquitania.
Sarah McLachlan covered the song for the soundtrack to the 1994 film Miracle on 34th Street; her rendition also appears on her 1996 compilation album Rarities, B-Sides and Other Stuff, on her 2006 Christmas album Wintersong, and in the soundtrack for the TV series Due South.

Prior to joining TDA, Paul Rogers fronted and played keyboards for the San Francisco rock bands The Dinks, Jimmy Knight and the Daze and the Baxter Brothers, and since TDA has played keys for the country group Transistor Rodeo and contributes several instruments to the "acoustic folk-skiffle-swing holiday" ensemble The Christmas Jug Band, the latter of which Rogers has also composed numerous songs for, including the humorous "Santa Lost a Ho" which NPR voted Christmas Song of the Year in 2005. Rogers has also released solo recordings through TDA's website, and in 2010 released his first solo CD under his name, a folk and rock children's music album entitled The Cul-de-Sac Kids. Throughout the 1980s, Linda "Big Lou" Seekins played keyboards and recorded with the Bay Area all-girl rockabilly band The Stir-Ups and roots rock band Thee Hellcats, and most notably played accordion with the polka punk band Polkacide. Since her departure from TDA in the 1990s, Big Lou has fronted several bands including the polka band Big Lou's Dance Party (formerly Big Lou's Polka Casserole), the bal-musette group Baguette Quartette, recording multiple albums with both, as well as the French cabaret trio Salute Matelot.
