Mahalia Jackson, (born October 26, 1911, New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S.—died January 27, 1972, Evergreen Park, near Chicago, Illinois), American gospel music singer, known as the “Queen of Gospel Song.”Jackson was brought up in a strict religious atmosphere. Her father’s family included several entertainers, but she was forced to confine her own musical activities to singing in the church choir and listening—surreptitiously—to recordings of Bessie Smith and Ida Cox as well as of Enrico Caruso. When she was 16, she went to Chicago and joined the Greater Salem Baptist Church choir, where her remarkable contralto voice soon led to her selection as a soloist.

CLIP 'En Aranjuez Con Tu Amor ' Bocelli TENOR ANDREA BOCELLI RELEASES NEW ALBUM, 'SENTIMENTO' Since bursting onto the classical music world in 1994 with a debut album which went platinum within weeks, Italian tenor ANDREA BOCELLI's worldwide success has been phenomenal. He has scored number one singles and albums around the globe and has been proclaimed by many as a worthy heir to Enrico Caruso. Born in 1958, the blind Andrea grew up in a close knit farming community in Tuscany where he started to display rare musical gifts from an early age. He soon developed a love of opera and by his own admission felt destined to sing. After graduating from the University of Pisa as a Doctor of Law, Andrea spent a year acting as a court-appointed lawyer, before embarking on a make-or-break attempt at singing. He approached the legendary tenor, Franco Corelli, famous for working with some of the greatest voices in the world, who readily agreed to take Andrea as his pupil. To pay the fees Andrea performed at night in piano bars and clubs, and at one of these venues he met Enrica, his future wife. The couple have now been married for eight years, with two sons, Amos and Matteo. His eponymous 1997 album, 'Bocelli', was awarded Platinum status is all territories of releases, but it was 'Romanza', produced later that year, which took him to even greater heights of success, going multi-platinum in virtually all territories of release. Since then he has turned into one of the world's most prodigious and successful recording artists, producing best-selling albums at a rate of approximately one per year. His latest album, 'Sentimento', is a collaboration with virtuoso conductor and violinist, Lorin Maazel. The original idea behind 'Sentimento' was to revive a fashion for performing violin/voice duets, a style of performance which was so popular in years gone by with artists like Caruso. When Bocelli and Maazel had finalised the list of titles for the album they realised that all the songs had similar things in common: feelings of tenderness, passion, melancholy, yearning and above all, Love, hence the title 'Sentimento'. 'Sentimento' will be released on 4 November, 2002.

Made by the New York Central Railroad in 1935, FLIGHT OF THE CENTURY is a portrait of the "most famous train in the world." <p>The 20th Century Limited was an express passenger train on the New York Central Railroad (NYC) from 1902 to 1967. The train traveled between Grand Central Terminal (GCT) in New York City and LaSalle Street Station in Chicago, Illinois, along the railroad's "Water Level Route".<p><p>The NYC inaugurated this train as direct competition to the Pennsylvania Railroad, aimed at upper class as well as business travelers between the two cities. It made few station stops along the way and used track pans enroute to take water at speed; after 1938 it made the 960-mile journey in 16 hours, departing New York City westbound at 6:00 P.M. Eastern Time and arriving at Chicago's LaSalle St. Station the following morning at 9:00 A.M. Central Time., averaging 60 miles per hour (97 km/h). For a brief period after World War II, the eastward schedule was shortened to 15½ hours.<p><p>The 20th Century was known for its style, which has been described as "spectacularly understated ... suggesting exclusivity and sophistication" as well as for its speed; passengers walked to and from the train on a plush, crimson carpet which was rolled out in New York and Chicago and was specially designed for the 20th Century Limited. "Getting the red carpet treatment" passed into the language from this memorable practice. "Transportation historians", said the writers of The Art of the Streamliner, "consistently rate the 1938 edition of the Century to be the world's ultimate passenger conveyance—at least on the ground".<p><p>Regular passengers included Theodore Roosevelt, William Jennings Bryan, Lillian Russell, "Diamond Jim" Brady, J. P. Morgan, Enrico Caruso, and Nellie Melba.<p><p>In the 1920s the New York-Chicago fare was $32.70 plus the extra fare of $9.60, plus the Pullman charge (e.g. $9 for a lower berth), for a total of $51.30. For that one got a bed closed off from the aisle by curtains; a compartment to oneself would cost more. In 1928, the peak year, the train earned revenue of $10 million and was believed to be the most profitable train in the world.<p><p>Shortly after the announcement of the fluorescent lamp, the cars of the 20th Century Limited were lit with this new type of lamp.<p><p>Like many express passenger trains through the mid-1960s, the 20th Century Limited carried an East Division (E.D.) Railway Post Office (R.P.O.) car operated by the Railway Mail Service (RMS) of the United States Post Office Department which was staffed by USPOD clerks as a "fast mail" on each of its daily runs. The mails received by, postmarked, processed, sorted, and dispatched from the 20th Century Limited 's RPOs were either canceled or backstamped (as appropriate) during the trip by hand applied circular date stamps (CDS) reading "N.Y. & CHI. R.P.O. E.D. 20TH CEN.LTD." and the train's number: "25" (NY-CHI) or "26" (CHI-NY).<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
