Provenance
Robert L. Sharp (1899-1937) Robert Sharp was a Mississippi native who came to Memphis in the early 1920s and established a reputation as a mandolinist and music educator. He organized and led the Memphis Plectrum Orchestra, one of the first groups to broadcast for WMC, the city’s first radio station. Mr. Sharp went on to found the Memphis Plectro Phonic Orchestra, training and performing with many protégés. He continued as a popular performing artist in Little Rock, Arkansas with his family ensemble, “The Seven Sharps.” His teaching and radio performances contributed to the mandolin family’s huge national popularity, as well as to the rich and unique musical tradition of the American South.
Charles S. Rehm (1826-1892) A native of Hanover, Germany, Mr. Rheem first appeared in the United States as a cornet soloist. After emigrating, Rehm was elected bandmaster of Dodworth’s Second Regiment Band and was featured at Laura Keene’s Theatre and the Palace Garden Theatre in New York City. In 1859 he joined the Philharmonic Society of New York, and a year later became bandmaster of the Governor’s Island Recruiting Service Band. In 1862 he wrote “Our National Union March,” dedicated to President Abraham Lincoln, and composed numerous other patriotic works for all types of ensembles. In 1872 he was appointed Leader and Instructor of Music at the Military Academy at West Point, New York, and ultimately became known as America’s most prolific leader of military bands.
