The Cornish School — later the Cornish Institute and now Cornish College of the Arts, an accredited college with courses in the sciences and humanities as well — was founded in 1914 by Nellie Cornish. Initially a music school, but later equally known for dance, theater, and visual arts, it thrived for decades under her leadership; although its quality slackened after her death, it eventually recov ...

| | | | Kenny G: Encyclopedia II - Smooth jazz - Radio Smooth jazz as a radio format has its roots in the construction of what were once called "beautiful music" stations, which generally played fifteen-minute sets consisting of instrumentals bookending a vocal song or two. "Smooth jazz" has gone on to be recognized as a successful radio format, first emerging in name in the mid- to late-1980s (often, they would be transitioned from existing "new age" stations) and subsequently spreading into most radio markets within the United States and many without. Currently prominent smooth jazz stations i ...

| | | | Kenny G: Encyclopedia II - Adult contemporary music - History Early radio stations played top-40 hits, theoretically regardless of genre although most were in the same genre until the mid-1970s when different forms of popular music started to target different demographic groups, such as disco vs. hard rock. This evolved into specialized radio stations only playing certain genres of music, and generally following the evolution of artists in those genres. One big impetus for the evolution of the AC radio format was the popularity of easy listening stations, stations with music specifically designed to be ...

| | | | Kenny G: Encyclopedia II - Secular Jewish culture - Literary and artistic culture In some places where there have been relatively high concentrations of Jews, distinct secular Jewish subcultures have arisen. For example, ethnic Jews formed an enormous proportion of the literary and artistic life of Vienna, Austria at the end of the 19th century, or of New York City 50 years later (and Los Angeles in the mid-late 20th century), and for the most part these were not particularly religious people. In general, however, Jewish artist ...

| | | | Kenny G: Encyclopedia II - Music of Washington - Garage rock In the early 1960s, several garage bands achieved regional and some national fame. Perhaps the most famous of these are The Wailers, whose regional fame was paramount for several years in the early 1960s. They are often considered the fathers of Seattle's rock scene.
Another influential garage rock band, The Regents, of Tacoma, were local icons, but the original incarnation never signed to a record label. The Regents are known for a technological innovation, after they fed the rhythm guitar through a Leslie organ speaker during a concert at the University o ...

The album, released in 1996, is her most successful work to date. Braxton, Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, and Antonio "L.A." Reid stuck to the same formula with this album but added more soul to the music. Braxton has said about the album, "The motivation for this album was to include a little bit of everything. Our aim was to come up with material that would have a familiar 'feel' to the people who bought the first album without being musically redundant ...

| | | | Kenny G: Encyclopedia II - VH1 - Overview VH-1's popularity and clearance (number of cable systems carrying the channel) was minimal until the fledgling network was acquired by Viacom (along with MTV, Nickelodeon, and Showtime) and placed into the MTV Networks stable. In 1994, in a bid to make itself more noticeable, VH-1 started to market itself as the "new VH1: Music First," and dropping the hyphen from its official name, and introduced its new "Big 1" logo. It altered its format slightly from adult contemporary (AC) to adult top 40, now including musicians such as Ace of Base, Me ...
