What does an amateur songwriter do in an era before copyright protection? He finds a straight job. In 1847, at age 21, Stephen Foster went to work as a bookkeeper at his brother’s steamship company in Cincinnati, down the Ohio River from Pittsburgh. He put quill pen to hemp paper and turned out another hit. This is where Foster, who had not yet been very far south of the Ohio, turned to writing songs about the South. Tom Roush puts his touch to this classic.

Foster: “Lou’siana Belle”

Well, the Ol’ Prof has stopped coughing, sniffling and sneezing, and that’s worth a little celebration.

Okey-doke! I’ve had my share of ‘em lately. Some of mine turned out to be my wifi card in the computer itself. I got a new one and it’s way better now. :)

Hope yours are easy to fix! (((hugs)))

The 22 year old Stephen Foster should have rung the cash register. In 1848, a song he had written for the Square Table became a national hit following its performance by the Christy Minstrels. Several dozen publishing firms pirated the song and made a fortune in sheet music sales. Foster merely got $100 from a small firm in Cincinnati.

Foster: “Oh! Susanna”

”Oh! Susanna” was a hit, but you never would have known it from the contents of Foster’s wallet. He had been burned badly, but he learned two important lessons from the experience: (1) he could write successful songs, and (2) he needed to protect his artistic property.

Foster understood that the minstrel shows of the era were the way to gain an audience for his songs, but he decided to humanize the people in his songs and convey a sense that everyone shared the same needs, free or slave. He told the performers of his songs not to make fun of slaves, but to get their audiences to feel compassion for them. Foster was the reforming figure of the minstrel movement in American entertainment. Some of this came from the fact that Pittsburgh was a center for abolitionism in Pennsylvania, and one of Pittsburgh’s great abolitionist figures, Charles Shiras, was a boyhood friend of Foster’s.

“Uncle Ned”

Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.

Do poor Tom some charity, whom the foul fiend vexes!

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!

In 1849, the 23 year old Stephen Foster wrote another hit while working in Cincinnati at the steamship company. This song is told from the perspective of the slave, and it’s a real heartbreaker.

Foster: “Nelly Was a Lady”

The Robert Shaw Chorale recorded an album of Foster songs in 1958, and it sold well.

“Dolcy Jones”

At the end of 1849, Foster quit his job in Cincinnati, returned to Pittsburgh, and signed a contract with a New York publisher, beginning his professional life as a songwriter.

I really like Stephen Foster’s Songs.

My students like them too.

I tell them that in Foster’s day, there were NO iPads, iPods, Nanos, MP3 Players, cd’s, videos, or even Cassettes or RECORDS. Everybody had a piano in the Parlor, and if you wanted to hear a Stephen foster song, you could play it on the piano.

Which meant you HAD to be able to READ Sheet Music!
