1/16/25 - Happy Birthday to British Jazz and R&B singer, Sade!

Born on this day in 1959, Nigerian-born British singer, her legal name is Helen Folasade Adu. Can you see where the "Sade" comes from? She was an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2002 for services to music. She said the award was, "a great gesture to me and all black women in England."

1/15/25 - Swan Lake, Anyone?

Peter Tchaikovsky composed the ballet in 1875-1876. It was first presented by the Bolshoi Ballet at the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow, but not well received. The score was revised and the Imperial Ballet presented it in the Mariinsky Theater in St. Petersburg on this day in 1895. Success!

1/6/25 - Have you heard of Maurice Ravel's "Miroirs" from 1906?

It was a great day in films about different styles of music at the Golden Globe Award ceremony back in 2019. Rami Malek in "Bohemian Rhapsody" and Mahershala Ali in "Green Book" both won for their roles as Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor.
