Did you know characters like Mamie Fish and Carrie Astor from the HBO hit series "The Gilded Age" were based on real women? They not only inspired Julian Fellowes when writing the show but occupied the pop-cultural spotlight in their day and would have glorious melodies composed in their honor. In the Pamela & David B. Ford Lecture from July 28, 2022, Dr. Mark Stickney shares some of these songs, as well as other musical works capturing the essence of Historic Newport, itself a central character in Julian Fellowes' script. He will be joined by Dr. Christopher Brellochs, music advisor for Episode 4 of “The Gilded Age.” Dr. Brellochs explores authentic musical works depicted in the series. He also discusses a scene in which characters are invited to the Academy of Music to hear a symphony by composer John Knowles Paine, portrayed by Dr. Brellochs himself.
