  • The Baroque, Classical, and Romantic Eras
    th The Modern/20 Century Throughout the twentieth century, many trends developed. These trends permeated all the different areas of music and did not specifically happen at a given point in time or take on a strict form. Some of these trends were incorporated together into the same piece of music. The twentieth century broke all the musical rules of the past and let one form and style flow right into another. It is still important to note that although much change came with the turn of the century, Romantic music continued throughout this era, and remained the dominant form for quite some time. Impressionism Impressionism was the very first trend of significance which moved away from Romanticism and towards Modern era characteristics. Though this type of music was programmatic, it still started the movement away from the Romantic era. Impressionistic music was vague in form, delicate in nature, and had a mysterious atmosphere to it. Expressionism Although not as important as Impressionism, Expressionism was a prominent early twentieth century movement. Stylistically, expressionistic music was very atonal and dissonant. It was a German movement away from French Impressionism. It was emotional and had a somewhat Romantic feel to it. Neo-Classicism Neo-Classicism can be defined as the new classical movement. This movement started in the early 1920s and continued to be a leading musical movement throughout the century. This trend is still popular today. Neo-Classicism is a movement which incorporated the music of the Classical era, in terms of clarity of texture and objectivity. This trend not only based its music on the Classical era, but it also mixed Renaissance, Baroque, and some modern trends in with it.

  • Anything Goes on an Ocean Liner: Musical Comedy As a Carnivalistic Heterotopia
    Article title: Anything Goes on an ocean liner: musical comedy as a carnivalistic heterotopia [in Studies in Musical Theatre, 7(3), February 2014, pp. 326-345] Author: George Burrows Author affiliation: University of Portsmouth Author Contact Details: George Burrows Senior Lecturer in Music School of Creative Arts, Film and Media Eldon Building Winston Churchill Avenue Portsmouth PO1 2DJ [email protected] Abstract: This article argues that the ocean-liner setting of the 1934 Broadway musical Anything Goes provides a rich place from which to explore how such seemingly frivolous musical comedy can otherwise be viewed as socially discursive and critical. It explores the way Anything Goes can be viewed as a typical product of the Great Depression and suggests its function in re-envisioning identities in the face of the apparent failure of the „American Dream‟. The nature of the carnivalistic comedy offered in the shipboard narrative of Anything Goes further suggests that it offers an important salve for Depression-era anxiety. From this Bakhtinian perspective, Anything Goes is figured as a subversive space for the performance of social deviance of one sort or another. Bakhtin‟s vision of carnival spaces suggests that musical comedy has an important function in social renewal but it might be too utopian to articulate to „real‟ society. However, Michel Foucault‟s notion of heterotopias allows for a re-connection of Bakhtin‟s utopianism with the „real‟ world and thus serves to show that Anything Goes and, indeed, musical comedy more generally might be as vital a location as passenger ships for functional socio-critical discourse.

  • Program Notes: Porgy & Bess

There is no 2 cornets, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, record, however, that this grandiose performance timpani, triangle, tambourine, side drum, ever happened. Seemingly never having heard cymbals, bass drum, bells, cannon, SATB chorus, the work, Tchaikovsky wrote to the conductor and strings: violin I, violin I, viola, violoncello, Eduard Nápravník in 1881, “Last winter, at double bass Nikolai Rubinstein’s request, I composed a Festival Duration: 16’ Overture for the concerts of the exhibition, entitled 1812. Could you possibly arrange to PETER ILYICH TCHAIKOVSKY have this played? It is not of great value, and I (Born May 7, 1840 in Votkinsk, Russia; shall not be at all surprised or hurt if you consider died November 6, 1893 in St. Petersburg) the style of the music unsuitable to a symphony concert.” Nápravník gave the apparent premiere 1812, Overture Solennelle, on August 20, 1882 in Moscow. The Overture represents the conflict — Op. 49 (1880) militarily and musically — of Russia and France, and the eventual Russian “victory” over The Russian penchant for myth-making the invaders. It opens with a dark, brooding extends, of course, to her warfare. It is therefore setting of the Russian hymn God, Preserve Thy not surprising that Napoleon’s strategic People for violas and cellos.
