Degree awarded June 2016 ii © 2016 Chelsea Nicole Oden iii THESIS ABSTRACT Chelsea Nicole Oden Master of Arts School of Music and Dance June 2016 Title: Reflection and Introspection in the Film Scores of Thomas Newman The most transformative moments in life cause us to look both backward (reflection) and inward (introspection). Likewise, reflective and introspective moments in film often align with important plot points. Separating music and dialogue from the rhythms of the image, these moments suspend time, creating a distinct temporality for the character(s) and the viewer to observe the past and the present in juxtaposition. The music of film composer Thomas Newman brings to life some of the most beautiful reflective and introspective moments in cinema. In this thesis, I approach Newman’s understudied, but highly successful film scores from narrative, musical, and audiovisual perspectives.

  • Interviews with Jason Graves, Garry Schyman, Paul Gorman and Michael Kamper
    Fear and the musical avant-garde in games: interviews with Jason Graves, Garry Schyman, Paul Gorman and Michael Kamper Helen R Mitchell The University of Hull Introduction In recent years a number of notable and hugely popular game titles have emerged which utilize the resources of avant-garde1 composition and aleatory2 composition in particular to instill varying states of fear and tension. Two particularly noteworthy composers who have drawn inspiration from this musical heritage, whilst also achieving popular acclaim, are Jason Graves3 and Garry Schyman.4 Interestingly both composers are classically trained and studied at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles; Graves as a graduate of the Scoring for Motion Pictures and Television program (Thornton School of Music) and Schyman as a composition undergraduate of the same school, an education which was supplemented by private tuition with George Tremblay after graduation. Both composers have scored music for film and television as well as games, but currently channel most of their energies into music for games. The range and diversity of titles credited to them has resulted in a fairly eclectic mix of musical outputs,5 each of which has been dictated by the most appropriate musical approach for the needs of the project in hand. Both composers are well recognized for their work; Garry Schyman has received multiple awards, including the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences award, ‘Best Original Score’, for Bioshock (2K Games) - part of a ‘triple A’ franchise. Jason Graves is an Academy Award- winning (BAFTA) composer who has scored ‘triple A’ franchises such as Tomb Raider (Square 2 Enix) and Dead Space (Electronic Arts) and has also received numerous other awards for his work.

Biographical note Originally born Walter Ingolf Marcus in Hamburg, Germany to a German father and a Swedish mother, Ingolf Dahl (1912-1970), one of USC's most distinguished faculty members, enjoyed a long and successful career in music. Dahl began his formal music education at the Hochschule fur Musik Koln (Cologne Conservatory), where he studied with Philipp Jarnach from 1930 to 1932.

    LELAND PROCTER Symphony No. 1 (1948) POLISH NATIONAL RADIO ORCHESTRA, Wlodzimiertz Ormicki, conductor Recorded in Poland by Polskie Nagrania GEORGE TREMBLAY Symphony in One Movement (1949) HAMBURG SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, Frederic Balazs, conductor LELAND PROCTER was born in Newton, Massachusetts in 1914, but within two years his family moved to New York state. Most of his childhood was spent in Pleasantville. Pursuing a musical education at the Eastman School of Music, he studied with Howard Hanson and Bernard Rogers. After graduation in 1938, he accepted a teaching position in Oklahoma, and completed work for his Master's degree at the University of Oklahoma, where he studied with Spencer Norton. In 1951 he received a fellowship from the Fund for the Advancement of Education for a year's study and composition at Harvard. His published works include piano and choral music and a book, Tonal Counterpoint. He has also composed for instrumental ensembles and has completed a one-act opera, Eve of Crossing. SYMPHONY NO. 1 was written between 1946 and 1948, while Procter was teaching at the New England Conservatory of Music. It was first performed by the Eastman-Rochester Symphony Orchestra in 1948. Subsequent performances include a nation-wide broadcast by the Oklahoma City Symphony under Victor Alessandro. Listeners have noted its qualities of directness, exuberance and spaciousness. The work is in four compact movements marked: Moderately fast, Slowly, Moderately fast, and Fast. The composer writes the following words about the music: "Although at the time the symphony was written, I was aware only of trying to write music of strength, vitality, sincerity, and exuberance which was symphonic in scope, I realize now that I can recognize my own attitudes clearly.

Dodecaphonic Sources for Contemporary Composition Jerry Gates1 Berklee College of Music Resumo: Aqui é disponibilizado o livro All Twelve. Dodecaphonic Sources for Contempo- rary Composition , de Jerry Gates. A obra apresenta uma abordagem prática de técnicas de composição a partir de conceitos operacionais do dodecafonismo. Palavras-Chave: Composição, Dodecafonismo, Harmonia. Abstract: The whole book All Twelve. Dodecaphonic Sources for Contemporary Composi- tion, of Jerry Gates is here available. It deals with practical exploration of dodecaphonic techniques for composition. Keywords: Composition, Dodecaphonism, Harmony 386 Introduction A composer frequently needs to work fast, efficiently and cohesively to get the com- pleted composition, song or film cues to the client before deadline. Over time, it has be- Livro come clear to me that composers also need many tools, or techniques, in their arsenal to create this music and meet the demand. This is particularly true in the world of commer- cial music where deadlines, and the threat of never working in this town again, are ways of life. The thought of the downbeat, or beginning of the recording session, is at 9 AM and you are still composing the music at 8 AM, can be a scary feeling! Presenting techniques pioneered by Los Angeles film composer/orchestrator Jack Smalley and the late composer George Tremblay, All Twelve – Dodecaphonic Sources for Contemporary Composition, will give the seasoned professional and the budding amateur alike more tools to explore and create with.
