  • South Pacific
    THE MUSICO-DRAMATIC EVOLUTION OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN’S SOUTH PACIFIC DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James A. Lovensheimer, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Arved Ashby, Adviser Professor Charles M. Atkinson ________________________ Adviser Professor Lois Rosow School of Music Graduate Program ABSTRACT Since its opening in 1949, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Pulitzer Prize- winning musical South Pacific has been regarded as a masterpiece of the genre. Frequently revived, filmed for commercial release in 1958, and filmed again for television in 2000, it has reached audiences in the millions. It is based on selected stories from James A. Michener’s book, Tales of the South Pacific, also a Pulitzer Prize winner; the plots of these stories, and the musical, explore ethnic and cutural prejudice, a theme whose treatment underwent changes during the musical’s evolution. This study concerns the musico-dramatic evolution of South Pacific, a previously unexplored process revealing the collaborative interaction of two masters at the peak of their creative powers. It also demonstrates the authors’ gradual softening of the show’s social commentary. The structural changes, observable through sketches found in the papers of Rodgers and Hammerstein, show how the team developed their characterizations through musical styles, making changes that often indicate changes in characters’ psychological states; they also reveal changing approaches to the musicalization of the novel. Studying these changes provides intimate and, occasionally, unexpected insights into Rodgers and Hammerstein’s creative methods.

  • The Sound of Music Book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse
    Welcome to Rodgers & Hammerstein’s The Sound of Music book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse The Sound of Music tells the story of Maria, a high-spirited postulant (nun-in training) who becomes a governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain. Her kindness and sense of play captures the heart of the children and eventually their grieving father. This story of a family rediscovering happiness is set against a serious backdrop; it takes place in Austria, in 1938, as the Nazi party is coming into power. Before we tell you more, take a moment and think about the title - The Sound of Music. Music is central to this story. Told as a musical, it is also about the power of music to bring people together, to heal, to fill us with joy. What role does music play in your own life? Do you sing, play an instrument, love to listen? Do you share music with your family or friends? What type of music moves your heart? While filled with music and laughter, The Sound of Music also explores serious subjects including standing up for your beliefs and being courageous enough to find your dreams. As we watch this brave family, we are reminded that we, too, have the strength to face our own challenges. Theatre raises questions and challenges audience members to discover their own answers. See what questions this information raises for you and what discoveries the performance provides. Thank you so much for joining us for The Sound of Music. We look forward to seeing you at the theatre! IT IS 1938 IN KALTZBURG, AUSTRIA, a fictionalized town in central Europe.
