James Weldon Johnson - It was while serving as executive secretary of the NAACP that he released God's Trombones, the work he is best remembered for today. For several years previously, he had collected and published anthologies of African American poetry and folklore, when he determined that "A good deal has been written on the folk creations of the American Negro; his music, sacred and secular; his plantation tales, and his dances; but that there are folk sermons, as well, is a fact that has passed unnoticed." Rather than collect the sermons, he transformed them into verse to capture the nuances of the "rhythmic intoning." Other works by Johnson include an opera, Tolosa, and the lyrics for "Lift Every Voice and Sing", to which his brother wrote the music. The song later became known as.
Jelly bean - candy called Turkish Delight while the shell is essentially the same as developed in the late 19th century for the Jordan almond candy. The two were brought together around the beginning of the 20th century. It was not until 1930 or so that jelly beans became an Easter candy, presumably from their resemblance to eggs. One prominent maker was the Herman Goelitz Candy Company, also the inventor of candy corn and now renamed the Jelly Belly Candy Company (Fairfield, California) making many naturally flavored beans, including pear, watermelon, root beer, and (their most popular flavor) buttered popcorn. The success of their brand led to a jelly-bean rennaissance, particularly when Ronald Reagan began keeping them on his desk in the White House. Another product of note which is manufactured by Jelly Belly.
Viola - greater variation in the size of the viola than that of the violin. Compared to the violin, the viola has a more resonant and mellower sound, especially in the lower registers. The viola is held horizontally beneath the chin and played in much the same way as the violin. The viola reads music in the alto clef, and has 4 strings tuned in fifths: the C an octave below middle C is the lowest, with G, D and A above it - these are tuned exactly one fifth below the violin, and so one octave above the cello. Use of the viola is almost completely limited to classical music, and even in that field it is not nearly so popular an instrument for solo pieces and sonatas as its cousins the.
Jimmy Dorsey - big band leader. Jimmy Dorsey was born in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania, the son of a music teacher and older brother of Tommy Dorsey who also became a prominent musician. He played trumpet in his youth, appearing on stage in a Vaudeville act as early as 1913. He switched to saxophone in 1915, and then learned to double on clarinet. He formed a band with his brother Tommy, then in 1924 joined the California Ramblers (who were based in New York City). He did much free lance radio and recording work throughout the 1920s. He joined Ted Lewis's band in 1930, with who he toured Europe. After returning to the USA he worked briefly with Rudy Vallee and several other bandleaders, in addition to the Dorsey Brothers Orchestra with Tommy. Tommy broke off.
