Happy Birthday for Dixieland Band
Happy Birthday for Dixieland Band
Dixieland Band
Dixieland Happy Birthday is excerpted from the film score for That’s Me, which Hughes composed in 1965 to accompany a film designed to help children identify themselves in the larger world they have newly entered. The film was produced by Amazing Life Games Films, directed by Jim Robertson, former head of Design at the San Francisco Art Institute. Hughes was a member of the core creative team.
The occasion of the 250th birthday year of the founding of the United States, paired to ACA’s celebratory collection “Music of the American Experience” seemed a perfect excuse to excerpt the Dixieland rendition of the Happy Birthday song, written in a style that is unmistakably American.
