19356343Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press 1935. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 5 3/4 X 8 3/4 Inches. 211 PP. First printing of this overlooked classic of the agrarian movement in America and especially the South in the early 20th Century. The famous "Agrarian" poets including John Crow Ransome and Robert Penn Warren had written their literary support of the agrarian movement just five years prior to this publication with "I'll Take My Stand." Cauley capitalizing on the sentiment coming from these leading Southern poets and statesmen threw his hat in the ring to prove the case that agrarianism is a viable and important way of life with a bit of math behind the appeal.

1924List3678New York City: Clarence Williams 1924. Folio measuring 12 x 9 inches 5 pp. With an attractive period style illustration by Sydney Leff with his printed signature in the lower right corner. Fine condition. A very scarce surviving example of the sheet music for "Cakewalking Babies from Home" a cornerstone early jazz-blues composition issued through Clarence Williams’s publishing enterprise at the moment when New Orleans–derived ensemble practice was reshaping American popular music. Written by Williams with Chris Smith and Henry Troy the piece bridges late ragtime syncopation and emerging small-group jazz textures. Though widely disseminated through performance and recording it appears to have circulated only sparingly as domestic sheet music.<br /> <br /> The song achieved lasting fame through the celebrated 1924 New York recording sessions by the Clarence Williams Blue Five Okeh 8256 featuring Eva Taylor vocal Louis Armstrong cornet Sidney Bechet soprano saxophone Clarence Williams piano and Buddy Christian banjo; a landmark early small-ensemble performance often cited for its dynamic Armstrong–Bechet interplay and its role in defining early jazz ensemble language.12 Circulating widely among classic blues singers vaudeville performers and musicians within Williams’s publishing network and the TOBA circuit the composition reflects the porous boundary between theatrical blues dance music and emerging jazz repertory in mid-1920s Harlem and Chicago. As noted in Smithsonian jazz educational materials “the roots of jazz are heard clearly… in ‘Cake Walking Babies from Home’â€.3<br /> <br /> Despite its well-documented performance and recording history institutional holdings of the sheet music itself appear extremely limited.

Printed on laid paper. <br /> <br /> Slightly worn and browned; remnants of mounting tape to upper corners of recto and outer edge of verso; 6 mm. paper loss to upper left margin. Limited to 200 copies the present copy unnumbered. American Etchers Vol. IX 35. NYPL b12151447.<br /> <br /> The most celebrated dancer of her time "Pavlova's technique was so perfect that it concealed technique. her arabesque and pas de bourrée have rarely been equaled and. her line was always impeccable. As an interpretive artist Pavlova probably even today remains unsurpassed. She was supreme in roles requiring feminine coquetry and light comedy; she excelled in lyrical and poetic roles in which her fluid expressive arms and hands were remarkable; and she could be deeply moving in dramatic and tragic roles such as Nikia and Giselle. What made her performances unique however was not so much her technical mastery or even her talent at characterization; it was the emotion she poured into her performances her incomparable stage presence - in short the power of her personality." The International Encyclopedia of Dance Vol. 5 pp. 125-126. <br /> <br /> The Gavotte Pavlova was choreographed to music from Paul Lincke's operetta Lysistrata arranged by Ivan Clustine. <br /> <br /> "Troy Kinney was most notable for his works portraying dance performers fanciful subjects and classically styled nudes.
