#Repost @new_generation_festival ・・・ ‘The Man I love’ at the #garrickclub Originally written for the 1924 score for Gershwin’s Lady, Be Good as ‘The Girl I Love’, and then for the 1927 anti-war satire Strike Up the Band as ‘The Man I Love’, this now-classic Gershwin song gained momentum outside of Broadway stage musicals and instead as a popular standard song that inspired countless renditions. The song has perhaps been made most famous by the much-loved 1939 recording by ‘Lady Day’ Billie Holiday alongside the ‘Prez’ Lester Young. Opera & Jazz - Gershwin would be so proud!!

Pssst.. here’s a hint for our upcoming show announcement coming up next with @thewoodstockplayhouse ! #Repost @louisarmstronghouse ・・・ 95 years ago today, Louis Armstrong married Lillian Hardin! Here is the newspaper coverage of their wedding, as found in one of Louis’s scrapbooks. Their reception was held at the “beautiful Ideal Tea Room” in Chicago in February 7. Check out the guests: Warren "Baby" Dodds, Johnny Dodds, Joe "King" Oliver, Fred "Tubby" Hall, Tommy Ladnier....hope they booked a good band for the reception! Louis and Lil’s marriage was a stormy one but the facts remain: she pushed him out of his comfort zone to leave King Oliver, made him take the offer to join Fletcher Henderson in New York, made him quit Fletcher Henderson when he wasn’t being featured enough, hired him to join her band, billed him as “The World’s Greatest Cornetist,” tipped off OKeh Records that he was coming back to Chicago and should be recorded as a leader, played in the Hot Five and Hot Seven, encouraged Louis to write down the little melodies he used to whistle at home and to copyright his compositions—and more! All hail Miss Lil, the architect of Louis Armstrong’s career! #louisarmstrobg #lilhardin #lilarmstrong #lilhardinarmstrong #lillianhardinarmstrong #misslil #dailypops #lahmdigitization #scrapbook #chicago #kingoliver #love #marriage #behindeverygreatman #bhm #blackhistorymonth #jazz #music #bam #trumpet #cornet #piano #louisarmstronghousemuseum #louisarmstronghouse #armstronghouse #wonderfulworld

Great places to catch live music in the hudson valley: 2019 edition

Not a venue but an initiative, 23Arts in Tannersville produces high-level musical programming year-round in various venues … The initiative favors jazz, modern classical and experimental, but is pretty genre-agnostic overall, especially in its exceptional, overstuffed summer festival programming.
