<p class=MsoNormal>Oral History of American Music at 40<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Vivian Perlis and Libby Van Cleve<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Tuesday, November 3, 4:00 p.m. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Sterling Memorial Library Lecture Hall, 128 Wall St<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Oral History of American Music (OHAM) at Yale is the only
ongoing project in the field of music dedicated to the collection and
preservation of oral and video memoirs in the voices of musicians. It is a
special kind of history, one that captures sights and sounds and recreates the
spontaneity of a moment in time. The sound of a voice is an immediate link to
the past--gestures, speech patterns, laughter<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>--these are vivid reminders of the unique qualities of a
personality, and they reflect the atmosphere of his or her time and place in
history. Artists in the OHAM collections include Virgil Thomson, Eubie
Blake, Aaron Copland, Ned Rorem, and Ellen Taaffe Zwilich.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Founded in 1969, OHAM is celebrating its 40th
anniversary. This lecture by Founder and Director Vivian Perlis and
Associate Director Libby Van Cleve will include a history of the project as
well as recordings from the collection. Other anniversary events include
a concert in Sprague Hall on April 6, and a special concert in Carnegie Hall on
April 8, part of the 'Yale in New York' series. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Vivian Perlis is a historian of American music, specializing

History of American Music. With Libby Van Cleve, she is the author of the
