pokkari
The previously unpublished autobiography and additional essays by the orchestrator-composer of some of America's most important musical theatre productions. The remarkable career of composer-orchestrator Robert Russell Bennett [1894-1981] encompassed a wide variety of both "legitimate" and popular music-making in Hollywood, on Broadway, and for television. Bennett is principally responsible for what is known worldwide as the "Broadway sound" and for greatly elevating the status of the theater orchestrator. He worked alongside Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Richard Rodgers, and Frederick Loewe on much of the Broadway canon, eventually providing orchestrations for all or part of more than 300 musicals between 1920 and 1975. This work is the first publication of Bennett's autobiography, which was written in thelate 1970s. It also includes eight of his most important essays on the art of orchestration. George J. Ferencz is Professor of Music at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater.

The Bagley family arrived in the American colonies about 1642. The research of Dr. Norton Russell Bagley and his sister, Martha (Bagley) Anderson, builds on the tradition that three Bagley brothers came to Boston; Orlando, Samuel, and Thomas. Dr. Bagley notes that the members of the Orlando line settled in Amesbury, Massachusetts, where they were selectmen, sheriffs, and town clerks.Some of Orlando's descendants spread to Kingston and Candia, New Hampshire, and then to the Eastern Townships of Canada. Some refused to take allegiance to the King of England and came back into upper New York and ended up in Haverhill, Massachusetts. Another branch went to Maine and settled in Durham, Liberty, and Montville, and then on to Down East and Washington County, Maine, to Jonesport and Machias and beyond. Another branch from New Hampshire went to Vermont, to Hartland, and hence to Durham and Cairo, New York, and then to Pennsylvania, Ohio, and to other states of the old Northwest, and from there to the West Coast. A few were found in the South. Like most New England families, the Bagleys scattered widely in their quest for better land and a better life.-Some Descendants of Orlando Bagley of Amesbury, Massachusetts: Volumes 1 and 2, 4th Edition trace the descendant lines of the immigrant, Orlando Bagley.-Notes on Bagley Lines: A Genealogical Summary of Numerous Bagley Ancestors, Volumes 1 and 2, 3rd Edition traces the descendants of Samuel Bagley and many other Bagley lines and also contains additional information on the Bagleys in England.-Families Related to the Bagley and Floyd Families, 2nd Edition explores the lines of some of the related families.-The Bagleys and Related Families of Washington County, Maine, and Beyond: A Genealogical Profile of Our Ancestral Families, Volume 1 - In America, Volume 2 - In Europe, and Volume 3 - Ancestral Charts, by Timothy W. Bagley, contains a narrative family tree of descent in America through Orland Bagley and related families up into Maine. Volume 2 follows the lines back into Europe and Volume 3 provides a set of family tree/pedigree charts.
