Wilkommen John Kander (1927 – Present) From Cabaret Based off of the 1951 play by queer playwright John Van Druten, Cabaret was written and premiered in 1966 by John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Joe Masteroff. The play by Van Druten, titled I Am a Camera, was inspired by the 1939 novel by Christopher Isherwood, Goodbye to Berlin. This novel is important in the inception of Cabaret as well as I Am a Camera, as it gives the plot, the conflict, and the characters used throughout the play and the musical.

In opera, music is the primary element, supported by the set and costumes. The set and costumes provide a visual interpretation of the music. In film, music and sound play a supporting role. Music and sound create an ambiance in films that aid in telling the story. I consider the musical to be an equal and reciprocal balance of music and vision. More importantly, a successful musical is defined by its plot, music, and visual elements, and how well they are integrated. Observing the transformation of the musical and analyzing many different genres of concert music, I realize that each new concept of transformation always blends traditional and contemporary elements, no matter how advanced the concept is or was at the time. Through my analysis of three musicals, I shed more light on where this ii transformation may be heading and what tradition may be replaced by a new concept, and vice versa.

SEMESTER at SEA COURSE SYLLABUS Voyage: Summer 2014
SEMESTER AT SEA COURSE SYLLABUS Voyage: Summer 2014 Discipline: Drama DRAM 3040: Musical Theatre History Upper Division Faculty Name: Nancy Carr Pre-requisites: None. COURSE DESCRIPTION: Whether you love the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals like The Sound of Music, Stephen Schwartz’s sensation Wicked, the rock musicals American Idiot and Mamma Mia or the new movie musicals Rock of Ages and Les Misérables, this class will examine them all. Taught by a professional actress and professor who currently has a student on Broadway, this class will explore many of Broadway’s milestone musicals complimented by a collection of over 400 video clips, original Broadway cast albums, scores, librettos (scripts), audio clips and photographs. Students will immerse themselves in the world of the musical by studying some of the most influential composers, lyricists, directors, choreographers, and performers that have contributed to the historical development of this art form. By exploring the language of music, the art of drama and the beauty of dance, you will investigate what it takes to bring musicals from the page to the stage, and what makes them triumph or flop. Students will gain insight into what really happens at an audition for a musical, how the world of musical theatre functions and the effect television shows like Glee and Smash as well as the resurgent popularity of movie musicals are having on the future of both the Broadway musical and its audience. Also, we will examine composers from several of the countries visited during the voyage who have had an impact on the development of the musical theatre landscape including Andrew Lloyd Webber (England), Benny Anderson and Björn Ulvaeus (Sweden) and Irving Berlin (Russia), as well as the work of American composers and librettists who have used the countries we are visiting as settings for their musicals.

Love Makes the World Go Somewhere Page 1 5. Love Makes
5. Love Makes The World Go Somewhere (“Gabriel’s Letter/My First Woman”) In This Lesson • How bookwriters address matters of love and sex for an increasingly skeptical audience and whether this is necessary or merely a reflection of the moment • How composers deal with romance, including romantic love, heroic adventure and woolgatherers’ dreams • How lyricists strike a balance between sentimentality and honest sentiment in a changing world Overview Whether you agree with Richard Rodgers (“Love Makes The World Go Square” from No Strings) or Bob Merrill (“Love Makes the World Go Round” from Carnival) you will probably agree that love of one kind or another is present in large amounts in most musicals. Love comes in many guises, two of which are exhibited in the selection from The Kiss of the Spider Woman (book by Terrence McNally, music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb) with the double title “Gabriel’s Letter/My First Woman. Gabriel sings about his friend, Molina, an incarcerated gay window-dresser. Valentin, uncomfortable being Molina’s cellmate, sings about his first sexual experience with a woman. Love and sex can be confusing; one without the other can be unsatisfying…or not, depending on the circumstances. Romance is a different word, however. In the past, musical theatre romance almost always meant boy/girl love affairs, and the always ended happily. In recent years this is not always true. The lovers separate at the end of Once. Alexander Hamilton marries a woman he doesn’t love because the woman he does love won’t marry him.

Broadway 1 a (1893-1927) BROADWAY and the AMERICAN DREAM
EPISODE ONE Give My Regards to Broadway 1 A (1893-1927) BROADWAY AND THE AMERICAN DREAM In the 1890s, immigrants from all over the world came to the great ports of America like New York City to seek their fortune and freedom. As they developed their own neighborhoods and ethnic enclaves, some of the new arrivals took advantage of the stage to offer ethnic comedy, dance and song to their fellow group members as a much-needed escape from the hardships of daily life. Gradually, the immigrants adopted the characteristics and values of their new country instead, and their performances reflected this assimilation. “Irving Berlin has no place in American music — he is American music.” —composer Jerome Kern My New York (excerpt) Every nation, it seems, Sailed across with their dreams To my New York. Every color and race Found a comfortable place In my New York. The Dutchmen bought Manhattan R Island for a flask of booze, E V L U C Then sold controlling interest to Irving Berlin was born Israel Baline in a small Russian village in the Irish and the Jews – 1888; in 1893 he emigrated to this country and settled in the Lower East Side of And what chance has a Jones New York City. He began his career as a street singer and later turned to With the Cohens and Malones songwriting. In 1912, he wrote the words and music to “Alexander’s Ragtime In my New York? Band,” the biggest hit of its day. Among other hits, he wrote “Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning,” “What’ll I Do?,” “There’s No Business Like —Irving Berlin, 1927 Show Business,” “Easter Parade,” and the patriotic “God Bless America,” in addition to shows like Annie Get Your Gun.
