Antique Original 1920 Please Don't Jazz My Mammy's Lullaby Piano Sheet Music - Lyrics And Music - John E Broderick - Jerome H Remick & Co - New York - Detroit - Single Fold Open - Song Book

"Please Don't Jazz My Mammy's Lullaby," Published In 1920 By Jerome H. Remick & Co., Is A Notable Example Of Early 20th-Century American Sheet Music That Reflects The Cultural Tensions Of The Jazz Age. 

Composed By John E. Broderick, The Piece Is Set Against The Backdrop Of The Roaring Twenties, A Period Marked By The Rapid Rise Of Jazz Music And Its Increasing Influence On Mainstream Culture. 

The Title And Imagery On The Cover Evoke A Nostalgic Plea To Preserve Traditional Music Forms Amid The Popularization Of Jazz, Which Was Often Associated With African American Musicians And Was Viewed By Some Segments Of Society As A Disruptive Influence. 

The Illustration, Depicting A "Mammy" Figure, Further Highlights The Racial Stereotypes Prevalent At The Time, Offering Insight Into The Complex Interplay Of Race, Music, And Social Change In Early 20th-Century America. 

This Sheet Music Captures The Ambivalence Toward Cultural Shifts And The Role Of Music In Reflecting Broader Societal Dynamics.
