    TONE PARALLELS IN MUSIC FOR FILM: THE COMPOSITIONAL WORKS OF TERENCE BLANCHARD IN THE DIEGETIC UNIVERSE AND A NEW WORK FOR STUDIO ORCHESTRA BY BRIAN HORTON Johnathan B. Horton B.A., B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2017 APPROVED: Richard DeRosa, Major Professor Eugene Corporon, Committee Member John Murphy, Committee Member and Chair of the Division of Jazz Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Horton, Johnathan B. Tone Parallels in Music for Film: The Compositional Works of Terence Blanchard in the Diegetic Universe and a New Work for Studio Orchestra by Brian Horton. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2017, 46 pp., 1 figure, 24 musical examples, bibliography, 49 titles. This research investigates the culturally programmatic symbolism of jazz music in film. I explore this concept through critical analysis of composer Terence Blanchard's original score for Malcolm X directed by Spike Lee (1992). I view Blanchard's music as representing a non- diegetic tone parallel that musically narrates several authentic characteristics of African- American life, culture, and the human condition as depicted in Lee's film. Blanchard's score embodies a broad spectrum of musical influences that reshape Hollywood's historically limited, and often misappropiated perceptions of jazz music within African-American culture. By combining stylistic traits of jazz and classical idioms, Blanchard reinvents the sonic soundscape in which musical expression and the black experience are represented on the big screen.

All concerts also feature members of Wayne Shorter’s quartet including pianist Danilo Pérez, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Brian Blade. “FRIDAYS AT FIVE” is SFJAZZ’s new weekly online membership program launched in the face of the COVID-19 crisis to support SFJAZZ’s ongoing operations and artists in anticipation of reopening.

Our tireless pursuit in offering our Citizens of Jazzlandia the finest examples of emerging, established and legacy artists continued unabated this past Fall with eleven shows: Raul Midón, Kamasi Washington, Camila Meza, Bill Frisell, McCoy Tyner, Steve Lehman, and Dave Douglas, among others. We have many great shows planned for the coming season T. S. MONK including Dave Holland, Donny McCaslin, Gerald Clayton, Billy Childs, Anat Cohen, Eliane Elias, Manuel Valera, Marquis Hill and Blacktet, Ambrose Akinmusire, and major surprises to be announced soon. The venues with whom we partner are integral in making sure we can keep bringing this high level of artistry for Portlanders to admire and discover.
