On Thursday, January 25, Carnegie Hall released the following video on Facebook, with the title, “Carnegie Hall’s 2018–2019 Season: ‘Migrations: The Making of America’”. 

After I saw it I wrote the following: “Your “Migrations: The Making of America” leaves out an entire Italian tradition: contributions to Jazz; Louis Prima; the Neapolitan song; etc. As a professor of Italian culture and history, I am disappointed and, dare I say, offended at the entire cancellation of Italian and Italian-American contributions to the USA, which your program does.”
