Mitte der 1850er Jahre befand sich Pittsburgh im Griff von au\u00dfer Kontrolle geratener Arbeitslosigkeit und Krankheit; Cholera t\u00f6tete in einem Sommer 400 Menschen. Um \u00fcber die Runden zu kommen, nahm die Pflegefamilie einen Pfarrer in ihr bereits \u00fcberf\u00fclltes Zuhause auf.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Die meisten von Fosters Werken fielen in eine anerkannte Kategorie von Minstrel-Songs, Musik, die von wei\u00dfen K\u00fcnstlern in schwarzem Gesicht aufgef\u00fchrt wurde und angeblich eine s\u00fcdliche Sklavenkultur beschreibt, von der weder Foster noch seine Freunde in Pittsburgh etwas wussten.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Die Familie von Stephen Foster lebte in einer Stadt im Norden, unterst\u00fctzte aber nicht die Abschaffung der Sklaverei. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;Foster, ein lebenslanger Demokrat, schrieb Wahlkampflieder f\u00fcr Politiker wie James Buchanan, die gegen die Abolitionismus waren und sich daf\u00fcr einsetzten, dass Sklavenj\u00e4ger freie Staaten betreten durften, um Afroamerikaner zu fangen, von denen angenommen wurde, dass sie entflohene Sklaven waren.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, many of Foster\u2019s songs fanned the flames for abolition.&nbsp; In the 1850s \u201cMy Old Kentucky Home\u201d and other songs appeared in stage adaptations of Harriet Beecher Stowe\u2019s abolitionist novel Uncle Tom&#8217;s Cabin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foster brachte sich selbst das Spielen von Klarinette, Gitarre, Fl\u00f6te und Klavier bei. Er hatte keinen formalen Kompositionsunterricht, aber er wurde von Henry Kleber (1816\u20131897), einem in Deutschland geborenen Musikh\u00e4ndler in Pittsburgh, unterst\u00fctzt. Sie studierten die Musik von Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert und Mendelssohn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G4XlQMzZck4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\">Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears, While we all sup sorrow with the poor;\r\nThere's a song that will linger forever in our ears;\r\nOh! Hard times come again no more.\r\n\r\nChorus:\r\n'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,\r\nHard Times, hard times, come again no more.\r\nMany days you have lingered around my cabin door;\r\nOh! Hard times come again no more.\r\n\r\nWhile we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,\r\nThere are frail forms fainting at the door;\r\nThough their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say\r\nOh! Hard times come again no more.\r\nChorus\r\n\r\nThere's a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away,\r\nWith a worn heart whose better days are o'er:\r\nThough her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day,\r\nOh! Hard times come again no more.\r\nChorus\r\n\r\n'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave,\r\n'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore\r\n'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave\r\nOh!
