Book excerpt: A complete how-to guide for "non-singers" or beginning singers who wish they could sing, or fearful singers who long to bring singingback into their lives. Includes Audio Tracks and Videos on Companion Website! Singing is a skill that can be learned, just like any other skill. However, because singing is so primal and meaningful to us as human beings, when we are discouraged, we are discouraged to the core. Our confidence and self-esteem are affected. Most would-be singers stop singing completely, no questions asked. But many who "can't sing," on some level wish they could.... Singing is your birthright. It's never too late to get started! With the Fear of Singing Breakthrough Program You'll: Discover the power of the body-voice connection Learn simple ways to use your breath to support your voice Harness a variety of singing techniques that work with your learning style Demystify basic music theory for singing Start learning how to sing in tune and understand rhythm Learn how to blend in so you can sing with friends and in groups You'll Find: Powerful fear-busting exercises Ice-breakers to get you singing right away Exercises for learning to listen better and match pitch Step-by-step lessons on how to approach any song Real-world suggestions for starting to sing with other people Inspirational ideas about art, courage and self-expression Even if your goals are modest (you're not planning to perform on Broadway or become a professional), feeling comfortable about singing the Happy Birthday Song, or singing around the campfire or at church can make all the difference in the world. In this fun, supportive program you will be guided through techniques to get past your fear, and be taught the foundations of learning how to sing. Tap into the transformative power of singing to experience more confidence, self-expression and joy. Don't let the outdated idea that you are a "non-singer" stop you from joining in one of the healthiest, most expressive and rewarding activities life has to offer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerome Kern (1885-1945) is considered one of the most versatile and influential of all American theatre and film composers. His pioneer work in developing a truly American musical sound inspired many of the great songwriters of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, and his songs include dozens of beloved standards still heard today, such as “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” and “The Way You Look Tonight.” The Jerome Kern Encyclopedia consists of entries on people, theatre and film musicals, songs, subjects, and themes related to the composer. Not only are all of Kern’s stage and screen projects from 1904 to 1946 covered, but there are also entries on all the major librettists and lyricists with whom he worked, as well as producers, directors, actors, and other individuals who figured prominently in his career. Approximately 100 of Kern’s most important songs are discussed, and other entries address awards, collaborations, working methods, song styles, and other related subjects. The encyclopedia also includes a brief biography of Kern, a chronology of his life and work, and appendices on recordings, interpolations, revivals, and remakes. The most complete work on one of America’s greatest composers, this fascinating, readable, and extensive look at Kern will appeal totheatregoers, movie musical fans, students, teachers, and professionals in musical theatre.

Download or read book The Songs of Hollywood written by Philip Furia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-07 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From "Over the Rainbow" to "Moon River" and from Al Jolson to Barbra Streisand, The Songs of Hollywood traces the fascinating history of song in film, both in musicals and in dramatic movies such as High Noon. Extremely well-illustrated with 200 film stills, this delightful book sheds much light on some of Hollywood's best known and loved repertoire, explaining how the film industry made certain songs memorable, and highlighting important moments of film history along the way. The book focuses on how the songs were presented in the movies, from early talkies where actors portrayed singers "performing" the songs, to the Golden Age in which characters burst into expressive, integral song--not as a "performance" but as a spontaneous outpouring of feeling. The book looks at song presentation in 1930s classics with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and in 1940s gems with Judy Garland and Gene Kelly. The authors also look at the decline of the genre since 1960, when most original musicals were replaced by film versions of Broadway hits such as My Fair Lady.

This comprehensive guide covers movie musicals from their introduction with the 1927 film The Jazz Singer through 2015 releases. In all, it describes 125 movies, opening up the world of this popular form of entertainment to preteens, teens, and adults alike. An introduction explains the advent of movie musicals; then, in keeping with the book's historical approach, films are presented by decade and year with overviews of advances during particular periods.

For each film covered, the guide offers basic facts—studio, director, songwriters, actors, etc.—as well as a brief plot synopsis.
