Interview with Ahmed Anzaldùa
In addition to being a co-founder of Justice Choir as well as a co-editor of the Justice Choir Songbook (justicechoir.org), Ahmed Anzaldúa is Director of Music Ministries at Unity-Unitarian in St. Paul and the founder and director of Border CrosSing Choir (bordercrossingmn.org). Normally, Border Crossing’s mission is “to integrate historically-segregated audiences and musicians through the performance of choral music,” but since the murder of George Floyd they’ve been on the front lines of relief work in South Minneapolis. We (Louis and Dan) highly recommend that you consider making a donation to Border Crossing to support their innovative, equity-oriented musical programming and their cr...

Interview with Tall Paul
Просмотров 634 года назад
Minneapolis was founded on Wahpekute and Mdewakanton land following the 1851 Treaty of Traverse des Sioux, a treaty that the US government soon violated, leading to the tragic Dakota War of 1862. (“Minneapolis” combines the Dakota word for water, “mni,” with the Greek “polis” or city.) Minneapolis’s present-day indigenous community plays a vital role in the city’s cultural life, and no discussi...

It has come to our attention that we completely missed mentioning the second most important Minneapolitan musician of all time (after Olive Fremstad, naturally) in our "Minneapolis the Musical City" virtual tour opening number. We apologize! To make up for the omission, here's Louis in front of Prince's childhood home. To access an interactive map of places featured on the virtual tour, includi...

How do you get to Orchestra Hall?
Просмотров 244 года назад
If the conference had taken place in Minneapolis as planned, you might have attended a concert at iconic Orchestra Hall, and you might have had to ask for directions. Luckily, we've got that covered - with a song! Orchestra Hall is the home of the Minnesota Orchestra, founded by Emil Oberhoffer in 1903 as the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. The ensemble changed its name to Minnesota Orchestra i...
Northrop Auditorium

We interviewed several Minneapolis musicians in front of historic Cyrus Northrop Memorial Auditorium, which is the north anchor of the main quad at The U (aka The University of Minnesota). The Minnesota Orchestra performed here for over 4 decades before moving to their current, downtown location. The Auditorium originally seated more than 4,800 so as to accommodate the entire student body in th...
Minnehaha Falls
Просмотров 164 года назад
If you felt your energy flagging on day 3 of #SAM2020 Minneapolis, you might have considered taking a virtual walk over to Minnehaha Falls, through which water from Lake Harriet and several other city lakes travels before emptying out into the high and mighty Mississippi River. The falls were also the inspiration for Wadsworth's "Song of Hiawatha" poem, and the Dakota etymology of the falls' na...

Thank you!! I learned a lot. ❤
Glad you liked it!
What Disney movie has a bouncing orange for singing about California
I remembered, or thought I did, Mitch Miller saying "Follow the bouncing ball." I was so wrong. How do we remember something that never happened?
It's called the Mandela Effect--when many people remember something that didn't happen.
Great work! Thank you so much!
familiar. 11:51 I understand I'm falling asleep also..
Min 10:02 is that a Disney song cartoon mouse looks familar.
Wow 1860s. ..I c a usa native bringing down a Buffalo on great plains..then at night as bison steaks sizzles on camp fire..much drumming dancing and singing..whooping..and single young adults flirting....while in New York sumone being robbed..
So far I'm following ur bouncing eyeballs reading the teleprompter..
Sweet child o mine

Thank you for your research and making this video! This is the information I’ve been waiting for!
This is an interesting piece. And thank you for citing my book as part of your research. It should be noted that the Ko-Ko Song Car-Tunes clips come from my DVD, "Max Fleischer's KO-KO SONG CAR-TUNES (with the Famous Bouncing Ball). I might add that perhaps the MOST racist of the Screen Songs was SING SISTERS, SING (1933) with its Black Face rendition of "The Scat Song."
Nice video mom!
Hi Esther. Thank you for the educational video. I think you are lovely.
Absolutely fantastic. A fascinating exploration of a tradition which I'm part of in the UK. Great to see the parallels between the development in the US and the UK. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Sarah!!
Thank you so much for this great history program, and for addressing the racism and race-teaching that can happen during all kinds of activities.
I remember a lot of this well and I remember the American patriotism that went along with a lot of it it was very beautiful majority of the people singing in harmony with each other it's such a beautiful way compared to what evolved huh. Being the oldest born in a family I remember you sing alongs with Mitch Miller and and such in the old cartoons we fall to bouncing ball and everybody sing along and it was a lot of great fun and a lot of togetherness unity the American family and such so glad to have been part of those times and to remember them because, our society could use a lot more of that or I say the American citizens in our country could use a lot more of that. 😊
You guys crack me up! What a delight!
This is amazing Esther! Thanks!
This is brilliant! You guys are so creative--thank you for this fantastic effort!
Enjoyed the beautiful music and fascinated by the information!
Bravo Carol & Joseph!
Bravo! Especially the playing-very convincingly put across!
The harp is much more like a Holtzman, not a Naderman.....
