説明 | Nice signed 8x10 publicity photo of baritone Phil Duey, a well-known radio singer who recorded widely in the late 1920s – 1930s. A member of the superb vocal group the Revelers in one of its late incarnations, he also recorded with Paul Whiteman, Leo Reisman, Victor Young, the California Ramblers, and B.A. Rolfe. But Duey, as he was born (and as he’s signed the photo) wasn’t your average pretty boy band singer:“In 1947, Dr. Philip A. Duey resigned his position as Head of the Department of Music at Butler University to come to the University of Michigan as Professor of Voice and Director of the Men's Glee Club. Previous to this he was a member of the faculties of the Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music and the College of the City of New York. Professor Duey sang professionally in New York City and elsewhere from 1926-1946. These activities included more than 5,000 radio broadcasts, mostly coast-to-coast, Town Hall recitals, opera and oratorio appearances, recordings, and Broadway shows. He was a member of the world-famous "Revelers" quartet and sang under such conductors as Toscanini, Damrosch, Szell, Wallenstein, Sousa, Paul, Whiteman, etc. A recipient of a three-year Julliard Scholarship and with degrees from Indiana and Columbia Universities, Dr. Duey wrote most of the arrangements for the Club during his tenure. Many of these were published by the Boston Music Company under the title, "The University of Michigan Glee Club Series". An authority on vocal ornamentation, he also authored the book Bel Canto in Its Golden Age. Dr. Duey retired in 1969 after becoming the Glee Club's longest serving conductor and is now memorialized through the Philip A. Duey scholarship fund.” — University of MichiganOn the back, the recipient has penciled the date the photo was received: May 8, 1936. |
