<description><![CDATA[Victor Herbert burst into the American operetta world in 1894 with his first production, Prince Ananias and sprung fully formed as a composer of operetta. Molded in the Strauss tradition, he brought his European sensibilities into the American arena and was immediately a success. His major competitor, Reginald De Koven, never really had a chance.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Scattered among the 1,000 or so pieces of the recently found Martin Ballmann Collection of Salon Orchestra Music were four complete songs composed by Victor Herbert and arranged by him for Gilmore's Band. The pieces are "Molly O'Brien," "Me and Nancy," "In Dreamland" from Wizard of the Nile and "The Silent Rose." The first two were published as piano pieces in 1895, "In Dreamland" comes from Herbert's second operetta, while "The Silent Rose" is part of a three song cycle composed in 1887 and published in 1888. What is so rare is that the pages are actually in Herbert's hand.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[An old adage says that the way to any man's heart is through his stomach. Perhaps that might also be expandable to "down his throat." It is we ladies who buy the groceries and most likely keep our husbands' stock of refrigerated beer in good supply. We probably also know better than our husbands how much it costs to keep that stock ready for the weekend, the big game or the weekly poker get-together. Of course, we'll not limit this discussion just to the married folks. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[They started in ancient Egypt accidentally, but farmers quickly learned that mixing barley with water and yeast yielded great results. Soon everyone was brewing beer at home and enjoying the fermented results of this chemistry while adding their own little distinctive touches around the world. Enjoying it to the point where society has often decided to put the brakes on all that alcohol consumption, and prohibit that nasty stuff. We all know how successful those campaigns were. We also know how very successful beer corporations have become.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Your community group, amateur orchestra, professional orchestra owns an original 1906 piano/vocal score to Victor Herbert's The Red Mill.  It had a wonderful run both originally and during a revival in the 50s.  You decide to stage the piece with soloists, chorus and utilize a piano and small combo as accompaniment.  "Ah ha!"  You say. "It's in the Public Domain!  We have everything we need."  But is that really a great assumption?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A huge percentage of Americans cannot live without their IPOD and personal music library.  Rap, Country, Rock, Show, Movie, Easy Listening - in short - Pop Music is big business, but where did it all come from? The Pop music phenomenon grew in the mid 20th-century, partly stoked by the golden years of Broadway as musicals showcased the music of Rodgers & Hart, Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Lowe, Comden & Green, Bernstein, Sondheim, etc.  These hugely famous productions routinely produced single songs which quickly sold across America as popular sheet music and recordings, finding their way onto the radio, the home piano and the record player in every home in the land.  The popular ("Pop") song became big business, turning unknown composers into American superstars and doing a huge service to their bank accounts. Would you believe this lucrative side business for composers actually started 40 to 50 years prior with the music of Victor Herbert?]]></description>
