PROGRAM NOTES Theme from “Jurassic Park” composed by John Williams, arranged by Nancy and Randall Faber © Lachlan Partridge, 2020 John Williams is considered one of the most influential composers of the modern era, and his work is famous around the world. He has worked on some of the most influential films of the modern era. His works include scores for movies such as Jaws, E.T, Saving Private Ryan and Schindler's List as well as film series such as Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Star Wars and Jurassic Park. Composed in 1993, The Jurassic Park theme strives to evoke a sense of grandeur and wonder. This piece is arranged by Nancy and Randall Faber, who have arranged a variety of pieces from different countries and eras into collections to be played for pianists of all grades. This theme is used throughout the film to introduce the mystical elements of the dinosaurs. Williams is quoted saying he wanted to write pieces that conveyed “a sense of awe and fascination" for the movie, which can be seen in this piece. The most iconic use of the Jurassic Park theme is when the main cast is introduced to a herd of Brachiosaurus and they, along with the audience, first experience the dinosaurs. The Theme starts softly and builds to a mesmerising climax, with large jumps in the base to help show a sense of scale. The range of the piece also helps exemplify the power of the piece, moving an enormous 5 scales from C1 to C6. “Over the Rainbow” composed by Harold Arlen, arranged by Nancy and Randall Faber © Louis Knynenburg, 2020 Harold Arlen, born on February 5th 1905, is a popular American composer, who most notably worked on many pieces in ‘The Wizard of Oz’. Starting off as a musician, Arlen formed a band at a young age before moving to New York City, where he would perform as an accompanist. Between 1926 and 1934, Arlen would occasionally perform as a band vocalist while also starting to compose his own pieces. During this time, he wrote many hit songs such as: “Get Happy”, “Let’s Fall In Love” and “Stormy Weather”. In 1938, his team was hired by Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer to write songs for “The Wizard of Oz”, where he wrote this piece, “Over the Rainbow”, which won the academy award for best music, original song. This is one of Arlen’s most notable pieces, and he went on to compose many other hits. Unfortunately though, in 1986, he died of cancer. Arlen will forever be remembered as a great composer, and his work, especially Over the Rainbow, will forever remain a classic, and will always be the song The Wizard of Oz is remembered for. The arrangers are Nancy and Randall Faber, the husband and wife team who are responsible for authoring over 300 publications. Nancy Faber was named “Distinguished composer of the year” by the Music Teachers National Association for her work composing “Tennessee Suite for Piano and String Quartet”. Randall Faber is a pianist and educator, who has given recitals throughout the United States, Canada and Asia. Together they founded the Faber Piano Institute, and their books have sold tens of millions of copies around the world. This piece is beautiful and calming. The introduction is a familiar melody, being the most memorable part of the song. The scalic movement upward right after this is like a gust of wind, which takes listeners to a grand, full-sounding yet still beautiful part of this piece. There is another scalic movement not long after this, but downwards, whilst still maintaining the full, bliss sound. This movement leads to yet another family melody, which leads to another upward scalic movement, in which the entire piece moves up an octave. It is similar to earlier parts in the song, but with its own twist, remaining beautiful, but also acting as a climax for the entire piece. We return to the melody from the very start of the song, which is repeated, before it changes, in which it moves up a tone, completely changing the sound. Soon after, the left and right hand’s rhythm comes together, acting as a refreshing movement into the chorus again. This time, there are slight variations, but overall the same emotions and feelings are conveyed. We return to the starting melody one last time, before another scalic movement downwards, which this time is twice as long. The song ends with a quaver moving from the left to the right hand, and a final chord that sounds like a question mark, as it sounds slightly awkward. “Stop This Train” composed by John Mayer, arranged by Charlie Attard © Charlie Attard, 2020 “Stop This Train” was composed by John Mayer in 2006 and is the 7th track from the album “Continuum.” John Mayer is known for his technical prowess on guitar and his ability to create popular music. John Mayer is a musician that has created music that fits in many genres, such as rock, blues, pop, funk and jazz. Some of his most well-known works are “Gravity” and “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room.” “Stop This Train” was composed in 2006 when Mayer was 28 and is about coming to terms with the continuous march of life. “Stop this Train” highlights some of John Mayer’s most unorthodox guitar techniques, such as the percussive slap on the 2nd and 4th beat of each bar, and a fingerpicking technique that only uses the thumb and first finger. The melodic line of this piece is usually sung, however, in the version of “Stop This Train” that I have arranged, the melodic line is played by the guitar. John Mayer’s original guitar part has two functions, to compliment the vocal melody and to maintain the pulse of the song. Allowing the guitar part to compliment the melody while playing the melody on the guitar was one of the most challenging aspects of the arrangement. During the bridge of the song, the finger picking technique switches to strumming to create a sense of drama. The dynamics in the song also play a part in influencing the listeners’ interpretation of the song. While the majority of the song is played at the same volume, the last chorus is played at a much lower degree of volume to the rest of the song. This establishes a sense of finality in the piece, as well as evoking a quite reflective tone, that is quite different to the loud adolescent sound that is present when the chorus is first played.

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

  • The Piano As Percussion Instrument in Jazz
    EIGHTY-EIGHT DRUMS: THE PIANO AS PERCUSSION INSTRUMENT IN JAZZ by Thomas Andrew Van Seters A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Thomas Andrew Van Seters 2011 Eighty-eight Drums: The Piano as Percussion Instrument in Jazz Thomas Andrew Van Seters Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2011 Abstract Evidence of a link between piano and drumming performance practices in western music dates back to at least the mid-nineteenth century. The modern construction of the piano had yet to be fully standardized when percussive techniques were being applied to its keyboard. Since that time, pianists and drummers (especially those involved with the creation of groove-based music) have grown closer and closer, participating in what remains a richly symbiotic relationship. This study examines parallels between piano and drumming performance practices in jazz. In this context, drumming is acknowledged as an important inspiration guiding the expression of rhythm and percussive attack by non-drummers, pianists in particular. Historical connections between pianism and drumming in jazz are addressed through an examination of those legacies that are widely believed to derive from West African drumming, European march and dance traditions, and various aspects of the so-called "Latin tinge" from the Caribbean and South America. Playing techniques are compared in part based on the premise ii that similarities in musical output flow naturally from congruencies in instrumental architecture. Percussive action unites pianists and drummers, as do shared abilities to create rhythmic layers through the independent functioning of multiple limbs.

  • Musical, Cultural, and Personal Contexts of Jazz in the Compositions of Harold Arlen
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: A BLUE TIN PAN: MUSICAL, CULTURAL, AND PERSONAL CONTEXTS OF JAZZ IN THE COMPOSITIONS OF HAROLD ARLEN Sarah Jean England Doctor of Philosophy Musicology, 2020 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Patrick R. Warfield, Professor, Musicology This dissertation explores the compositions of songwriter Harold Arlen, viewing them as musical portraits of the immigrant experience and the racial politics of the United States in the early part of the twentieth century. This approach reveals how Arlen’s upbringing in a racially diverse neighborhood in Buffalo, New York, where Jewish American immigrants and African Americans formed the core of the community, as well as his early years playing in jazz bands and his tenure at the Cotton Club, left a permanent and indelible mark on his compositional style. I trace the influence of African American popular music on his compositional approach, structure, and style. In doing so, this dissertation adds a more nuanced view to narratives about Jewish American songwriters’ use of jazz and blues in Tin Pan Alley song by demonstrating their specific application in the works of one composer. In addition to musical function, the personal and cultural implication of jazz elements in Arlen’s music are also explored.
