Timeline of Musical Events
6 January: A somewhat revised and streamlined revival of Kern and Hammerstein's Show Boat opens on Broadway at the Ziegfeld Theatre, the same theatre at which the original production played back in 1927. This production features newly designed sets and costumes, new, more extended choreography, and a new song, Nobody Else But Me, by Kern and Hammerstein. It is the last song Kern ever writes; he dies nearly two months before the revival opens. This production plays exactly a year, and is the longest-running Broadway revival up to that time. It is also the first production of Show Boat to be recorded with its original cast (Broadway cast albums did not begin to be made until 1943). The stars include Jan Clayton, Carol Bruce, Charles Fredericks, Kenneth Spencer, and Buddy Ebsen.
24 January: Igor Stravinsky's Symphony in Three Movements premiered by the New York Philharmonic, conducted by the composer.
