Book Synopsis The Broadway Musical: A Critical and Musical Survey by : Joseph P. Swain
Download or read book The Broadway Musical: A Critical and Musical Survey written by Joseph P. Swain and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2002-11-19 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To see a Broadway musical is to experience how a drama, using melody, harmony, and rhythm, evokes the emotion needed to perpetuate a story line. Without music, many of these plays would not succeed, failing to convey the intended message. This new edition of Swain's classic text, winner of the 1991 ASCAP Deems Taylor Award, reveals how a musical drama achieves plot movement, character development and conflict through strategic placement of song and music in 20 musical plays. Unlike critical literature that has simply explored theatrical style and production histories, this survey focuses mainly on the power of music. Illustrated with more than 150 musical excerpts and essays, Swain includes the latest research and viewpoints of contemporary critics, offering insight into dramatic expression and how renowned composers including Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Jerry Bock, Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber influenced the Broadway musical. This provides insights into the many impressive musicals to hit the stage between the years of 1927 and 1987, illuminating how specific revisions to productions such as Showboat and, Oklahoma! forever changed their popularity. Learn how music is used as a symbol for psychological or emotional action from Shakespearean drama's such as Kiss Me, Kate and West Side Story, to more current dramas including Godspell, A Chorus Line, and Jesus Christ Superstar. Replete with a never seen before essay on Les Misérables, this edition also includes an expanded epilogue highlighting the phenomena behind Miss Saigon and Phantom of the Opera, "megamusicals" that changed the direction of the Broadway tradition. For professors of dramatic arts and people interested in Broadway musicals, theater, popular music and opera.

Book Synopsis Women and Popular Music by : Sheila Whiteley
Download or read book Women and Popular Music written by Sheila Whiteley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and Popular Music explores the changing role of women musicians and the ways in which their songs resonate in popular culture. Sheila Whiteley begins by examining the counter-culture's reactionary attitudes to women through the lyrics of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. She explores the ways in which artists like Joplin and Joni Mitchell confronted issues of sexuality and freedom, redefining women's participation in the industry, and assesses the personal cost of their achievements. She considers how stars such as Annie Lennox, Madonna and k.d. lang have confronted issues of gender stereotyping and sexuality, through pop videos for 'Justify My Love' and 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)', and looks at the enduring importance of the singer-songwriter through artists such as Tracey Chapman. Lastly, she assesses the contribution of contemporary artists including Tori Amos, P.J. Harvey and Courtney Love, and asks whether the Spice Girls are just a 'cartoon feminist pop group' or if they provide positive role models for teenage girls.

Book Synopsis The Beatles Top 101 Solo Songs by : Casey Piotrowski
Download or read book The Beatles Top 101 Solo Songs written by Casey Piotrowski and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-25 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Beatles were still The Beatles after they broke up...musically speaking. The genius each of them brought into the group they took with them as they went their separate ways. As a result, we still heard a lot of music from The Beatles alone that was as great as the music they made together...with a good deal of variance from that, to be sure.The Beatles Top 101 Solo Songs celebrates the music John, Paul, George and Ringo created in the decades after the group's break up...in essence, the continuation of their remarkable legacy, now done one Beatle at a time. The book looks at the most significant work (not always their best) done by the four of them alone...showcasing not only their biggest hits, but obscure titles known, probably, to only their biggest fans...and, probably, not to all of them...but each worthy of being called 'Beatles music'.Colorfully written...insightful, clever and funny... by Casey Piotrowski ("The Beatles 50 Most Memorable Moments" and host of the nationally syndicated radio series "The Beatles Show"), 'The Beatles Top 101' not only explains why each of these songs deserve a place on this list, but also gives background and context as to what was going on...with The Beatles, with the music industry...even what was going on in society...as we first heard them. And it is not merely a hosanna chorus to post-1970 Beatles music. Some of The Beatles most successful solo work was not among their best, yet those songs were still significant and Piotrowski lands the occasional well placed nudge at the handful of their best known titles that undershot their skill level.The Beatles solo work has been underserved, discounted...even, in many cases, ignored simply because it carried the lesser, though still substantial brand names of Lennon, McCartney, Harrison or Starr (still pretty estimable) rather than that of the trademark of musical trademarks 'The Beatles'. "The Beatles Top 101 Solo Songs" means to change perception, correct history and proves that though The Beatles together stopped giving us incomparable music at the end of the Sixties, that same incomparable music kept coming from the four of them...by themselves...ever since.
