  • A VIRTUAL CABARET EVENT in Support Of
    A VIRTUAL CABARET BENEFITING THE NATIONAL BREAST CANCER COALITION FUND FROM THE HOSTS OF AND THE NEWGala YORK Sunday, December 6, 2020 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET A LETTER FROM FRAN Dear Friends, Welcome to our first-everVirtual Cabaret Event and an evening of talented performances and tantalizing fun, all for a great cause. This year marks the 20th Anniversary of our Les Girls Cabaret and the 25th Anniversary of our NY Gala, and these two special events have sustained the National Breast Cancer Coalition (NBCC), year after year. When the pandemic hit, I began to wonder if either event would happen. But we found a way. Thanks to the extraordinary efforts of our Event Committee, the encouragement of our sponsors, the personal commitment of our hosts and performers, and the imagination of our production team, we are able to combine both events and once again offer a one-of-a-kind, fantastic evening. We are forever grateful to all of them. Since 1991, NBCC has been at the vanguard of the breast cancer movement, elevating breast cancer to an issue of national significance. NBCC brought about a federal research program that has awarded over $3.75 billion in research grants. We empower women and men, through education and training, to become a unified voice to save lives. And through our Artemis Project®, we lead a collaboration of exceptional scientists and dedicated advocates who focus on research to prevent women and men from getting breast cancer in the first place and stop it from metastasizing and taking lives.

  • Determining Stephen Sondheim's
    “I’VE A VOICE, I’VE A VOICE”: DETERMINING STEPHEN SONDHEIM’S COMPOSITIONAL STYLE THROUGH A MUSIC-THEORETIC ANALYSIS OF HIS THEATER WORKS BY ©2011 PETER CHARLES LANDIS PURIN Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ___________________________ Chairperson Dr. Scott Murphy ___________________________ Dr. Deron McGee ___________________________ Dr. Paul Laird ___________________________ Dr. John Staniunas ___________________________ Dr. William Everett Date Defended: August 29, 2011 ii The Dissertation Committee for PETER PURIN Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: “I’VE A VOICE, I’VE A VOICE”: DETERMINING STEPHEN SONDHEIM’S COMPOSITIONAL STYLE THROUGH A MUSIC-THEORETIC ANALYSIS OF HIS THEATER WORKS ___________________________ Chairperson Dr. Scott Murphy Date approved: August 29, 2011 iii Abstract This dissertation offers a music-theoretic analysis of the musical style of Stephen Sondheim, as surveyed through his fourteen musicals that have appeared on Broadway. The analysis begins with dramatic concerns, where musico-dramatic intensity analysis graphs show the relationship between music and drama, and how one may affect the interpretation of events in the other. These graphs also show hierarchical recursion in both music and drama. The focus of the analysis then switches to how Sondheim uses traditional accompaniment schemata, but also stretches the schemata into patterns that are distinctly of his voice; particularly in the use of the waltz in four, developing accompaniment, and emerging meter. Sondheim shows his harmonic voice in how he juxtaposes treble and bass lines, creating diagonal dissonances.

    BODIES OF WORK: THE PRODUCTION OF WORK, CLASS AND GENDER IN FILM MUSICALS A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in English By Kathryn D. Jett, B.A. Washington, DC April 25, 2008 The influence of community is always inextricable from class identity. I would like to thank the communities of strong women who have influenced my thinking and my work from my hometown in Guymon, Oklahoma to my academic home here at Georgetown University. Special thanks belong to Dr. Pamela Fox for her guidance and inspiration. By introducing me to working-class studies, she has given me the critical tools I have been seeking all along. A large part of this work however, is drawn from the ultimate community of women in my life—my mother, grandmothers, sisters, aunts and cousins. Their ceaseless work, their love of music, and their subtle feminism are all woven into my thoughts and my words. To my mother and my Grammy Dee, thank you for showing me that a woman’s work can be as beautiful as her music. Kathryn Jett ii Table of Contents Introduction ………………………………………………………………………….. 1 Working Titles ……………………………………………………………………… 20 Hand-Made Expressions ………………………………………………………...…. 24 Mechanized Bodies …………………………………………………………………. 33 Commodified Bodies ……………………………………………………………….. 45 Resistant Bodies …………………………………………………………………….. 55 Contradictions and Conclusions ….…………………………………………………. 64 Bibliography ………………………………………………………………………… 70 iii Introduction The stage musical is widely acknowledged as a purely American art form. Taking its roots from black minstrelsy, ethnically diverse Vaudeville, and New York’s Tin Pan Alley1, musical theatre has always been rich with the class, race, and gender related themes that reflect a complex and often fractured American culture.
