  • Beauty and the Beast
    BEAUTY AND THE BEAST CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS: BELLE (Stage Age: 18-30) Belle is the original fairy tale heroine–kind, gentle, and beautiful–but with an important 21st Century twist. She is a strong, intelligent, spirited and independent young woman. Belle is the moral conscience of the story, elevated by her thoughts and deeds. The maturity and depth of her character allow her to see the true beauty and spirit within The Beast, and to love him for it. This role requires a very strong singer who portrays innocence with her singing and speaking voice. MezzoSoprano: Low A-High F THE BEAST (Stage Age: 21-35) The Beast’s tortured soul is evident for all to see. He is paying the ultimate price for a moment of mean-spiritedness, and wishes beyond wishing that he could rectify his mistake. There is anger and menace in The Beast’s appearance and behavior, but increasingly we see his soft and endearing side as he interacts with Belle. It becomes clear that he is a loving, feeling, human being trapped within a hideous creature’s body. This role requires a very strong singer, and the actor must have a strong speaking voice and stage presence. Baritone: A–High F GASTON (Stage Age: 21-35) Gaston is the absolute antithesis of The Beast. Although he is physically handsome, he is shallow, completely self-centered, not very bright, and thrives on attention. However, when his ego is bruised he becomes a very dangerous foe for The Beast, Belle and Maurice. This role requires a strong singer and character actor who moves well.

  • Disney Songs Musical Elements
    1 Classroom Online Resource Document (CORD) Follow the Conductor: An Introduction to Musical Elements Gelareh Naseri [email protected] Gluck Fellows Program of the ARTS University of California, Riverside 2 Follow the Conductor: An Introduction to Musical Elements By learning about five main musical elements in this one-hour workshop, students learn to listen to music in a different way: more actively and more consciously. Also, identifying these elements in different pieces of music can lead them to appreciate and enjoy music more than before. Through related activities, students learn about these five musical elements: Beat, Meter, Tempo, Dynamics, and Pitch. The main activity in this workshop is finding these musical elements in Disney cartoon songs (while they are being played on a screen) and moving arms or clapping or singing following the conductor (the instructor). A list of all YouTube active listening examples (A to I) is given on page 4. Here are five musical elements that students learn about: 1. Beat (The pulse in music): Students move their body according to the beat of the music that they are listening to. Active video listening example: A 2. Meter (Duple and Triple): Students learn to move their arms and conduct a duple (or triple) meter and count up to two (or three). Then, they listen to two Disney songs, and find out if it is better to count up to two (for a duple meter song), or up to three (for a triple meter song) for each song. Active video listening examples: B and C (duple meter); D and E (triple meter) 3 3.

    3 List of Characters Belle Townsfolk: Beast Aristocratic Lady Gaston Fish Man LeFou Egg Man Lumière Sausage Curl Girl Maurice Baker Lady with Cane Mrs. Potts Lady with Baby Cogsworth Candle Man Chip Hat Seller Madame de la Grande Bouche Milkmaid Babette Shepherd’s Boy Monsieur D’Arque 3 Silly Girls Ensemble roles: Townsfolk, Angry Mob, Servants (Flatware & Dishware) Brief Character Breakdown in Beauty and the Beast, Jr. BELLE is a smart, confident young woman from a small village. We are looking for a strong singer and actress. Ideally, she should be able to transition from her chest voice to a chest voice/head voice mix comfortably. Belle needs to be able to stand up to Gaston (and the Beast!) as well as those who don’t seem to understand her, while being able to show compassion for her father, the Servants, and eventually the Beast. MAURICE is an eccentric, older inventor, yet more importantly, the adoring and protective father of Belle. This non-solo singing role is perfect for the student who can have fun interpreting this “crazy old man” while conveying some very strong emotions: fear and fatherly love! The BEAST/PRINCE is the master of the castle who was transformed by the Enchantress’s spell. Casting for size is not as important as choosing a student that can handle this complex character: a dictator, a hurt child, a hero, a defender and a smitten prince. We are looking for an actor who can deliver a range of conflicting emotional states. The Beast and Prince may be cast as separate roles.
