BOX 570-606, 627-628, 632-637, 732-737 | Ford Sunday Evening Hour Orchestra Music, 1934-1946 | ||||||||||||
Leonard B. Smith acquired part of the Ford Sunday Evening Hour orchestra library
to consider transcribing the works for concert band. This portion of the library
contains approximately 265 titles, each of which comprises score and parts unless
otherwise noted. The works are primarily arranger's holographs and often include
the sheet music from which the arrangement was derived. The inclusion of
saxophones in the instrumentation is noted, and their presence indicates a lighter
pops work most likely performed during the Ford Summer Hour broadcasts. Catalog
numbers are included in parenthesis if known. The Ford Sunday Evening Hour (also known as The Ford Symphony Hour) was a concert radio series sponsored by the Ford Motor Company that largely employed musicians from the Detroit Symphony Orchestra as well as a 24-voice chorus, soloist, conductor, and narrator. From 1939 to 1941, The Ford Summer Hour was the summer replacement for the regular Ford Sunday Evening Hour. The hour-long programs were broadcast coast-to-coast on the CBS network and featured light classics, popular music, hymns, ballads, and arias. The program was not broadcast during World War II, from 1942 to 1945. Prolific arrangers such as Maurice Gardner, Carmine Coppola, Carmen Dragon, Paul Sterrett, Roy S. Chamberlain, Eugene Zádor, and Andrew and Arthur Luck contributed heavily to this orchestra music library, and many went on to successful careers composing and arranging for film, television, and the concert stage. Other prominent musicians involved with these programs include soloists Fritz Kreisler, Jascha Heifetz, and conductors Percy Faith and Fritz Reiner. |
