Soul of the City

For centuries Philadelphia has been America’s laboratory for experiment and innovation—in government and politics, medicine and science, freedom of conscience, the arts and architecture, and in brotherly and sisterly love. The rich fusion of immigrant and local cultures established Philadelphia as a city of music. Groundbreaking artists, creatives, technologists, producers, and promoters collectively made one of the world’s great musical centers. Soul of the City explores how music infused the city’s character through the 20th century, creating a cultural canopy linking musical genres and generations. - Soul of the City: They went to New York to become stars. They came to Philly to learn how.

    One man in Philadelphia changed the way all we listen to and see music, particularly rock and roll. If you have been to rock concert in the last 50 years, you have seen the impact of Larry Magid. If you have marveled at Bruce Springsteen performing in front of 70,000 people, you have seen the work of Larry Magid. He recognized magic in Hendrix, Cream, The Who and so many more and helped launch the era of live rock. Sam Katz sits down with Larry Magid for a look at an extraordinary career.
