Jamey Reilly of Jamey’s House of Music and Andrea DiFabio of Vinyl Revival have teamed up to present Movie Night!Join us at Jamey’s on Thursday, January 29, for a screening of “Once in a Hundred Years: The Life & Legacy of Marian Anderson.”
Marian Anderson, whose contralto singing voice of great range dazzled international audiences, was a gifted African American woman who had to surmount innumerable, unwarranted obstacles before eventually achieving her dream.
“ONCE IN A HUNDRED YEARS” refers to the quote of the great conductor Arturo Toscanini who once told Marian Anderson: “A voice like yours is heard once in a hundred years.”
Marian Anderson’s story continues to inspire people from very different backgrounds and her achievements in overcoming bigotry have secured her a place as a true pioneer internationally and in her home town of Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love.
The filmmaker walks the streets where she lived; talks to the people who knew her, knew her family, and someone she babysat; see where she was educated and went to church; and marvel at how she was able to transcend humble beginnings to sing for tens of thousands of people, and for Presidents and queens on the world’s stages.

Writer: Nat Gutwirth
