Set to be released Aug. 24, the LP kicks off with an uplifting track titled “Kite,” premiering on Billboard today (May 31). Combining her poignant songwriting with her love of girl power, Silvas felt the best way to help listeners feel her personal strength was through a high-flying metaphor. “I wanted to capture a woman’s inability to be held down,” Silvas told Billboard of the inspiration for the “Kite” angle of the song. “That even without any real sense of direction of where she is going, she wants to be free to just go wherever the wind takes her. Her spirit can get her in trouble sometimes, but it’s what keeps her feeling alive.” “Kite” is both the lead single and opening song of the 12-song E.G.O., all of which Silvas co-penned. The album -- whose title is an acronym for Everybody Gets Off -- sees Silvas explore both her influences and her vulnerability while maintaining a soul-funk, country-tinged vibe, making for a diverse collection of thoughtful tunes. Though she decided to name the album after the title track that addresses the conceited tendencies of fame, Silvas felt quite liberated during the entire creation process of E.G.O. , especially writing “Kite.” “I had the musical freedom to go where I wanted, and that’s what made me happy,” she asserts. “It felt nostalgic to relive my childhood influences in some of these songs, and it’s empowering to put my own spin on them.”” - Billboard, 5/31/18 Coming up... 8/6: ISLAND “The Day I Die,” Ziggy Marley “Circle Of Peace,” Joey Dosik “Don’t Want It To Be Over”... 8/13: Caroline Rose “Jeannie Becomes A Mom” Greta Van Fleet’s Pittsburgh show: “They Can Shred” “So, has anyone told Greta Van Fleet that they sorta kinda sound like some other band? Kidding. Yes, in fact, that’s all they hear, because, at this point in their young career, Greta Van Fleet is the Led Zep- pelin tribute band that writes its own songs. So far, there have been less than 10 of them released, but the radio play and the buzz was enough to sell out the 5,000-plus Stage AE Outdoors in one day, a big leap from their Pittsburgh debut in October at The Funhouse at Mr. Smalls to about a hundred people. We can all agree that GVF is not the most original-sounding band to come down the pike, but the quartet is demonstrating on this tour that there was some serious work being done at the classic-rock-friendly Kiszka household in Frankenmuth, Mich.

  • South Pacific
    THE MUSICO-DRAMATIC EVOLUTION OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN’S SOUTH PACIFIC DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James A. Lovensheimer, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Arved Ashby, Adviser Professor Charles M. Atkinson ________________________ Adviser Professor Lois Rosow School of Music Graduate Program ABSTRACT Since its opening in 1949, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Pulitzer Prize- winning musical South Pacific has been regarded as a masterpiece of the genre. Frequently revived, filmed for commercial release in 1958, and filmed again for television in 2000, it has reached audiences in the millions. It is based on selected stories from James A. Michener’s book, Tales of the South Pacific, also a Pulitzer Prize winner; the plots of these stories, and the musical, explore ethnic and cutural prejudice, a theme whose treatment underwent changes during the musical’s evolution. This study concerns the musico-dramatic evolution of South Pacific, a previously unexplored process revealing the collaborative interaction of two masters at the peak of their creative powers. It also demonstrates the authors’ gradual softening of the show’s social commentary. The structural changes, observable through sketches found in the papers of Rodgers and Hammerstein, show how the team developed their characterizations through musical styles, making changes that often indicate changes in characters’ psychological states; they also reveal changing approaches to the musicalization of the novel. Studying these changes provides intimate and, occasionally, unexpected insights into Rodgers and Hammerstein’s creative methods.
