Historical Note When the Capitol Theatre opened at Broadway and 51st Street in Manhattan, on October 24, 1919, it was touted as the "World's Largest and Most Beautiful Theatre," and with 5300 seats it maintained that claim for several years to come. Managed by Major Edward Bowes, the Capitol was one of the premier "picture palaces" of its era, and the luxurious theatre played host not just to movies, but also to elaborate stage revues and musical performances which complemented the films and ensured the Capitol's distinction among its rivals. In addition to an Estey organ constructed for the theatre, an orchestra of 71 musicians – a number that would rise over the years – was employed. In June of 1920, having established himself as New York's leading theatre manager at the Rivoli and the Rialto, Samuel "Roxy" Rothapfel took over the artistic direction of the Capitol, where he worked with some of the era's most distinguished theatrical musicians. In September of 1920, Hungarian-born conductor Erno Rapeé became music director of the Capitol, where he remained until 1923. Rapeé's subsequent books – Motion Picture Moods for Pianists and Organists (1924) and Encyclopedia of Music for Pictures (1925) – reflect the musical principals he developed at the Capitol and remain among the most important documents of silent film accompaniment practice in this period. Rapeé's successor, William Axt, had been assistant conductor at the Capitol since 1921; upon Rapeé's departure in 1923, Axt took charge of the theatre's music in partnership with David Mendoza. All of these musicians were responsible not only for selecting and conducting music, but also often for orchestrating, arranging, and composing pieces. The published Capitol Photoplay Series, comprising music written for the theatre, includes dozens of Axt's compositions, but Axt and Mendoza's best known achievement is their full-length score for Don Juan (1926), which was the first feature film to be screened (though not at the Capitol) in synchronization with the Vitaphone sound-on-disc process. Also associated with the Capitol's music department was Eugene Ormandy – first as a section violinist, and from 1926 as associate music director. In 1927, Rothapfel left the Capitol to manage the new and slightly larger Manhattan theatre which was named after him – the Roxy – where he was joined once again by Rapeé. But the Capitol remained in business for over 40 more years, making the transition to sound and later to wide-screen Cinerama, and continuing for much of that time to keep alive the mixed format of motion pictures and live entertainment. The theatre was demolished following a final gala stage show on September 16, 1968. Scope and Content The collection consists of published scores, mostly for piano, of music to accompany the showing of silent films. Also included are manuscript parts of music arranged for chamber ensembles. The collection principally consists of music intended for performance as film accompaniment – mostly the piano parts of larger orchestrations – but it also includes music used for other aspects of the theatre's varied programming. There are also manuscripts of compositions and arrangements by Rapeé, Axt, and others. The collection retains the organization of the Capitol's music library, in which selections were grouped either by genre or by what Rapeé called "moods," using the following categories: Appassionato; Bacchanale; Ballet; Barcarolle; Berceuse; Caprice; Characteristic; Children; Concert; 87 2 Descriptive; Dramatic; Emotional; Festival; Galop; Gavotte; Grotesque; Gruesome; Humorous; Hunting; Intermezzo; Lullaby; Maestoso; March 6/8; March Concert; March Funeral; March Processional; Mazurka; Medley Overtures; Minuet; Movimento; Mysterioso; Nautical; Nocturne; Operatic; Oriental; Overture; Pathetic/Pathetique; Pastoral; Polonaise; Pulsating; Rags; Romance; Rube; Schottische; Selections; Serenades; Southern; Storm; Suites; Symphony; Valse Concert; Valse Lento; Valse Popular. Items are arranged alphabetically by title within folders. The collection is in the midst of being processed. The finding aid will be updated periodically.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • Hollywood's Treatment of World War I
    Making Meaning from the Images: Hollywood’s Treatment of World War I John Harvey Lesson Purpose The purpose of this lesson is for the student, using the guidelines provided in the unit objective to focus on the importance of World War I not only as an historic event but also as a multi-faceted tool of Hollywood. It is not to say that Hollywood is secretly run by an illuminati bent on shaping our view of the world, but the images Hollywood presents can often be interpreted as representative of certain ideologies that were present during the era of a given film‘s production. History, it is said, repeats itself. Sometimes, history on film tells as much about the time the film was made as about the period it is depicting. The view through cinema shows themes or images that bear repeating. Characteristic of the great movie machine, Hollywood has often used the power of the cinematic medium to persuade audience viewers to view things in a different light. Just as a director or cinematographer will deliberately reposition the lighting setup for a given shot from a film to enhance, de- emphasize, or subtly affect the appearance of a set or a particular actor, directors, producers, and studios have used film as a means of promulgating a virtue, ethos, or value system via narrative structure or a juxtaposition of images. This is commonly accepted as one of the most powerful components of any visual medium, and film is certainly not an exception to the rule. Some have maintained that such use of an art form is propaganda.

  • Open GRAFF Thesis Final Draft.Pdf
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Music INDIAN IDENTITY: CASE STUDIES OF THREE JOHN FORD NARRATIVE WESTERN FILMS A Thesis in Musicology by Peter A. Graff © 2013 Peter A. Graff Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2013 ii The thesis of Peter A. Graff was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles Youmans Associate Professor of Musicology Thesis Advisor Marica S. Tacconi Professor of Musicology Sue Haug Professor of Music Director of the School of Music *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Music in John Ford’s Westerns reveals increasingly complex and sympathetic depictions of Native Americans throughout his filmography. While other directors of the genre tend to showcase a one-dimensional “brutal savage” archetype (especially in the early sound era), Ford resisted this tendency in favor of multidimensional depictions. As a director, Ford was particularly opinionated about music and wielded ultimate control over the types of songs used in his films.
