Gcse Music Film Music
FACTFILE: GCSE MUSIC FILM MUSIC Film Music Background The idea of music as an accompaniment to film came about in the silent film era. Originally it was used as a way to cover the sound that the projector would make when watching a silent film and as a way to create a particular mood or atmosphere for the action taking place. Often in house pianists or an orchestra would play at the venue either improvising or reading from a score. Silent films soon became obsolete as production and technology allowed for recorded sound to be synchronised with the film. These types of films were called sound films, talking picture or ‘talkies’. In the beginning, the music used was often western classical compositions (e.g. Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries in Birth of a Nation, 1915) but in the 1930’s the role of the film composer was emerging and original compositions were made as part of the film’s narrative (e.g. Max Steiner’s score to King Kong, 1933). Choice of instrumentation is very important in film music as it contributes to the style and genre of the film, changing throughout the decades. Film Music Chronology 1900s – 1920s The silent movie era. Music was introduced to accompany film by live performances by a pianist or orchestra. Late 1920s Introduction of the ‘talking picture’ and the use of the late Romantic idea of the leitmotif. 1930s – 1960s The ‘Golden Age’ of film music begins. Use of ‘mickey mousing’ technique to synchronise what is happening on screen with the music.

SYMPHONIES of HORROR Musical Experimentation in Howard Shore's
SYMPHONIES OF HORROR Musical Experimentation in Howard Shore’s Work with David Cronenberg A thesis submitted to the Oberlin College & Conservatory Musical Studies Department in fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors by Vikram Shankar Spring 2017 Shankar, Symphonies of Horror 2 Table of Contents: Introduction 3 Methodology 6 Theoretical Frameworks 9 Early Experimentation: The Brood 20 Synthesized Surrealism: Videodrome 30 Breaking Through to the Mainstream: The Fly 40 Scoring the Unfilmable: Naked Lunch 60 Conclusion 77 Works Cited 81 Nosferatu, A Symphony of Horror: original score 84 Acknowledgments 86 Shankar, Symphonies of Horror 3 INTRODUCTION With a career spanning almost forty years, Canadian composer Howard Shore has become one of the most respected and sought after film composers working in the industry today. Much of his work, in particular his scores for the Lord of the Rings films, have received much academic attention; his longstanding working relationship with Canadian horror filmmaker David Cronenberg, however, has not yet benefited from such academic inquiry. Using the films The Brood, Videodrome, The Fly, and Naked Lunch as case studies, this thesis examines the way that Shore uses the arena of Cronenberg’s films as a laboratory for personal musical experimentation. Examples include Shore’s use of electronic synthesizer sounds alongside a string orchestra for Videodrome, implementations of canonic techniques and against-the-grain writing for The Fly, and the incorporation of free-jazz aesthetics in Naked Lunch. Using as sources Howard Shore’s words and what academic inquiry exists in this field, but more often utilizing my own analysis and observations of the music and films, I argue that Shore’s scores incorporate such musical experimentation to work in tandem with Cronenberg’s own experimental art.

Film Music: History and Function from 1930 to Present
Film Music: History and Function from 1930 to Present Units: 4 Term—Day—Time: Fall 2020—Tuesdays and Thursdays—4:00–5:50pm (Pacific Time) Location: ONLINE Instructor: Tim Greiving Office: Virtual Office Hours: Virtually anytime Contact Info: [email protected] Course Description Music is the soul of film. Film scores can animate, enhance, pump blood into, subvert, and often transcend their movie. This underlooked, underappreciated art form is almost 100 years old—still an infant compared to its predecessors like opera, ballet, and theatre music, but old enough to have a rich, fascinating history worth exploring. In this course we’ll take a trip through that history, at times skimming along the surface, at times diving deep. With the aid of film clips, live watch parties, and the occasional special guest, you’ll gain a solid knowledge of and appreciation for the most-heard, least-noticed art form of the past century. (Because we’re cramming one hundred years of history into a single—shortened!—semester, we’ll primarily focus on Hollywood film music, although a few classes will be devoted to international films and composers. We’ll also limit our study to feature films, without spending time on television or videogame music.) Recommended Reading • King Kong chapter from Music by Max Steiner, by Steven. C.

This CD fea- tures the premiere releases of Never So Few (1959) and 7 Women (1966), respectively, each filled with exotic melody and instrumentation. Never So Few is a WWII romance/adventure starring Frank Sinatra as the leader of a U.S. army unit in Southeast Asia. Known as a “Rat Pack” production (it also starred Peter Lawford) and directed by John Sturges, the film is perhaps most noteworthy for giving Steve McQueen his break on the silver screen. Hugo Friedhofer’s score features a dynamic main title with a throbbing ostinato followed by a mournful trumpet solo evoking the losses of war. Friedhofer was no stranger to the war genre and provided a brew of wartime suspense and also romance, as Sinatra romances the voluptuous Gina Lollobrigida. The setting is highlighted by enchanting, Thai-flavored colors. 7 Women is the last film directed by the legendary John Ford.
