Equilibrium Records to Release "Someone Talked! Memories of World War II"

with Grammy Award-winner William Bolcom, Joan Morris, Robert White, and

Hazen Schumacher

 

Ann Arbor, Michigan – October 1, 2009. Recalling a time of patriotism,

heroism, and happy homecomings, "Someone Talked! Memories of World War II"

transports listeners back to the era of USO Shows, war bonds, and Victory

Gardens. Featuring Grammy Award-winning composer and pianist William

Bolcom, internationally acclaimed soloists Joan Morris and Robert White,

and jazz historian Hazen Schumacher, this “radio show in miniature”

includes 19 songs from America’s wartime songbook interlaced with 20

narrations that tell the story of life on the battlefront and the

homefront, circa 1940s.

 

“Today, many feel the need to express their thanks to our veterans, and

that impulse was where the idea for 'Someone Talked' originated,” said

pianist William Bolcom. “This recording is also for those who are too

young to be in any way connected to war. For them, World War II will

certainly be unknown territory, and we wanted this to be a step toward

understanding what the war felt like here at home.”

 

Produced by Equilibrium Records at Brookwood Studio; official release date:

October 13th. Available now through www.equilibri.com. Physical

distribution by Albany Music Distribution to Borders Books and Music,

Amazon.com, Tower Online, and independent CD stores. Digital distribution

through IODA to I-Tunes, Rhapsody, Napster, and other international

download sales sites.
