    LOW MALE VOICE REPERTOIRE IN CONTEMPORARY MUSICAL THEATRE: A STUDIO AND PERFORMANCE GUIDE OF SELECTED SONGS 1996-2020 by Jeremy C. Gussin Submitted to the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, Doctor of Music Indiana University December 2020 Accepted by the faculty of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Music Doctoral Committee __________________________________________ Ray Fellman, Research Director __________________________________________ Brian Gill, Chair __________________________________________ Jane Dutton __________________________________________ Peter Volpe December 10, 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 Jeremy Gussin iii Preface This project is intended to be a resource document for bass voices and teachers of low male voices at all levels. For the purposes of this document, I will make use of the established term low male voice (LMV) while acknowledging that there is a push for the removal of gender from voice classification in the industry out of respect for our trans, non-binary and gender fluid populations. In addition to analysis and summation of musical concepts and content found within each selection, each repertoire selection will include discussions of style, vocal technique, vocalism, and character in an effort to establish routes towards authenticity in the field of musical theatre over the last twenty five years. The explosion of online streaming and online sheet music resources over the last decade enable analysis involving original cast recordings, specific noteworthy performances, and discussions on transposition as it relates to the honoring of character and capability of an individual singer. My experiences with challenges as a young low voice (waiting for upper notes to develop, struggling with resonance strategies above a D♭4) with significant musicianship prowess left me searching for a musically challenging outlet outside of the Bel Canto aesthetic.

Indiana University Summer Theatre is thrilled to be back, providing professional theatre created here in Bloomington by our students, faculty, and guests. Given the cancellation of 2020's IUST due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the continued precautions surrounding in-person gatherings, IUST is proud to partner with WFIU to present two radio plays, and to also stream the fully staged musical Maltby and Shire's Closer Than Ever. Although we’d very much like to have a live audience, we are delving into this summer as an opportunity to expand our work and our student’s experience into audio plays and filmed musicals. We’ve had an incredible time, not only partnering with WFIU but also with the Lilly Library for our audio production of Twisted Tales of Poe. The silver lining is that this summer, many people both near and far can tune in to hear and view our IUST offerings for 2021! I’d also like to give a special thanks to our remarkable patrons and department friends who’ve supported us through this pandemic with financial gifts and letters of support.

  • S.C. Review #15: Twisted: the Untold Story of a Royal Vizier, (2013
    S.C. Review #15: Twisted: The Untold Story Of A Royal Vizier, (2013), Brian Holden. While it was hardly the first to do so, Stephen Schwartz’ musical take on Wicked popularised an entire subgenre of storytelling: the alternate perspective/revisionist fantasy, usually from a character deemed as villainous or otherwise not seen in a positive light in whatever the original story happened to be. Familiar stories were given makeovers and these new takes were seen as the ‘untold true’ versions of events, usually positing said villain as the good guy or just misunderstood. Professor Moriarty got The Hound of the D’Urbervilles, Maleficent got her own movie, as will Cruella in the near future, and in 2013, Jafar from Disney’s much beloved Aladdin got his own shot at redemption in the form of a Kickstarter-funded musical parody from StarKid Productions, a Chicago theatre group known for parodying big franchises like Harry Potter and Star Wars in musical form. With music by A.J Holmes, lyrics by Kaley McMahon and a libretto by Eric Kahn Gale and Matt & Nick Lang, Twisted skewers not just Aladdin but also a lot of Disney fairytales in a story that says Jafar was not actually an evil sorcerer bent on using the magic lamp to steal the kingdom, but instead a good man whose ugly appearance and logical mindset put him at odds with the residents of the land, who were decidedly more in the clouds. We see him struggle against a corrupt administration, a spoilt princess and the antics of a no-good street rat driven by decidedly lower inclinations as he tries to fix the rampant poverty and an oncoming war with the neighbouring kingdom of Pixar.

  • A PDF Copy of the Full MARY POPPINS JR Program
    Welcome Hello and welcome to the opening production of OVATIONS JUNIOR COMPANY’s 2018/2019 season. We are so thrilled that you’ve joined us. DISNEY’S MARY POPPINS JR starts off with jack-of-all trades, Bert, introducing us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their door- step. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memo- rable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.” Our upcoming season is something we couldn’t be more excited about and will continue to make us a leader in the DMV area bringing musical theatre experiences to our students and audiences. Next week we invite you to follow the yellow brick road with Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tinman, Lion, and yes Toto too, to audition for The Wizard of Oz: Young Performers edition. This beloved tale, in which a Kansas farm girl travels over the rainbow to discover the magical power of home, has been entertaining audiences for generations. This production is a celebra- tion of that classic 1939 MGM film though presented with a refreshed and lavish rendition of the beloved classic. Audiences young and old, seeing it for the first time or the fifth, will be daz- zled and charmed by its timeless score.

  • TWISTED Parodiert Den 1992 Erschienenen Disney Film „Aladdin“, Indem Es Die Geschichte Aus Der Sicht Von Ja‘Far, Dem Königlichen Wesir Des Reiches, Erzählt
    KANGAROO ENTERTAINMENT präsentiert 18.-23. April 2016 KiP, Wien Sehr geehrte Medienpartner und Pressevertreter, Talente brauchen eine Bühne, um sich präsentieren zu können. Leider fehlt vielen jungen Künstlerinnen und Künstlern die Möglichkeit, ihr Talent unter Beweis zu stellen. Kangaroo Entertainment hat sich das Ziel gesetzt, dies zu ändern! Seien es nun Musicaldarstellerinnen und -darsteller, Autorinnen und Autoren, Komponistinnen und Komponisten, Kostümdesignerinnen und -designer, oder jede andere Form von kreativen Köpfen, wir sehen unsere Aufgabe als Verein darin, unsere Produktionen durch die vielversprechendsten Talente in allen Bereichen zu besetzen. Der Anspruch dabei ist, auf KünstlerInnen und Werke aufmerksam zu machen, die, in unseren Augen, großes Potential zeigen. Mit den Projekten in unserem Verein wollen wir ihnen die verdiente Chance geben gehört und gesehen zu werden - und so auch dem Publikum ermöglichen, die volle Bandbreite der Nachwuchs- Talente kennenzulernen. 1 DER VEREIN Der Verein „Kangaroo Entertainment “ ist ein Zusammenschluss von Schauspielern, Musikern, Regisseuren, Medientechnikern und Kostümdesignern, die es sich zur Aufgabe gesetzt haben, kreatives, zugänglich es, qualitatives Theater für interessiertes Publikum zu kreieren. Dies soll einerseits durch das Erarbeiten von eigenen Stücken, als auch durch das Spielen von unbekannteren Werken lokaler, sowie hierzulande weniger bekannter Autoren, auch im Rahmen deutschsprachiger Erstaufführungen, erfolgen. Durch das Produzieren von innovativen Stücken, welche nicht davor zurückscheuen, gewisse Tabus ansprechen, soll frischer Wind in die Wiener Theater- und Musicalszene gebracht, und so insbesondere Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene für das Genre Musical und Musiktheater begeistert werden. 2 DAS STÜCK Ja‘ far ist ein tüchtiger, ehrlicher Politiker des Magischen Königreichs, welches dunkle Zeiten erlebt. Korruption beherrscht das Land, die Verbrecherszene lebt auf, angeführt von Aladdin, dem König der Diebe, und das Königreich naht dem Bankrott.
