 Biography

Charles Schwartz (born New York City, June 13, 1922, died New York, Dec. 24, 1998), was a composer, author and music impresario. He received his Bachelors degree at Brooklyn College and a Masters degree from New York University Graduate School before studying from 1945-1953 with several contemporary composers: Arthur Berger, Roger Sessions, Jacques Ibert, Aaron Copland, Darius Milhaud, and Charles Jones. He received a Ph.D. in Musicology from NYU in 1969, after which he taught at Queens College (1967-1971) and Hunter College (1972 onward). In addition to his work in academe, he also lectured publicly and took part in panel discussions on American musical theater, jazz and contemporary music. Schwartz also freelanced as an orchestrator and trumpeter.

From 1957 until the mid-1990s, Schwartz produced concert series under the titles Composers’ Showcase and Jazz Profiles (both eventually under the former title), presenting concerts of new music and jazz at the Whitney Museum, Circle In The Square, the Museum Of Modern Art and Lincoln Center. These concerts presented new works by significant composers in both fields, including Aaron Copland, Duke Ellington, Ned Rorem, Eubie Blake, Luciano Berio, Charles Mingus and David Amram, among others.

Schwartz also researched and wrote about two major figures in American popular song, George Gershwin and Cole Porter. He published three books on them: George Gershwin: His Life And Music (Bobbs-Merrill, 1973), George Gershwin: A Selective Bibliography And Discography (Information Coordinators, 1974), and Cole Porter: A Biography (Dial Press, 1977). He also wrote articles on Gershwin for the Dictionary Of Contemporary Music (Dutton, 1974) and Grove’s Dictionary Of Music And Musicians (6th edition, Macmillan, 1977).

Schwartz continuously composed his own music, including symphonies, string quartets, popular song, works for wind and percussion and chamber pieces. He also wrote, performed and recorded several “jazz symphonies” and other smaller works combining elements of jazz and classical music and featuring jazz artists such as Clark Terry, Cab Calloway, Sonny Fortune, Freddie Hubbard and Jon Hendricks. These included Professor Jive, Solo Brothers, Riding High and Mother, Mother. As a composer, Schwartz won many honors, including ASCAP awards in 1978 for Professor Jive and in 1979 for Mother, Mother. He was a Fellow of the Macdowell Colony in 1968.

Scope and Content Note

The Charles Schwartz Papers document the three parts of Schwartz's career: his activities as a producer of concerts of contemporary music and jazz with his Composers' Showcase series; as a published biographer of George Gershwin and Cole Porter; and as a prolific composer whose music was performed and recorded by important musicians. Composers' Showcase is documented by correspondence, business papers, clippings, concert programs, publicity materials and photographs of performances and participating musicians. The collection contains Schwartz's Gershwin and Porter books in manuscripts and proofs, as well as papers, notes, articles and photographs used in his research process. These include copies of Gershwin and Porter music manuscripts and correspondence, originals of which are in other repositories. Schwartz's own music scores comprise over half the volume of the collection and include music composed from the early 1940s until the mid-1990s. The clippings and concert programs document the performance and critical reception of Schwartz's music, and other papers document the business and logistics of performing and recording it.

 Organization

The collection is organized into 4 series and 4 sub-series. They are: Series I: Papers, 1898-1998 and undated Sub-series 1 – Composers’ Showcase, 1963-1998 and undated Sub-series 2 – Compositions And Projects, 1976-1998 and undated Sub-series 3 – Writings, 1898-1998 and undated Sub-series 4 – General, 1956-1998 and undated Series II: Photographs, 1957-1997 and undated Series III: Scores, 1943 – ca. 1995 and undated Series IV: Oversized Material, 1909-1984 and undated
