  • “Can't Help Singing”: the “Modern” Opera Diva In
    “CAN’T HELP SINGING”: THE “MODERN” OPERA DIVA IN HOLLYWOOD FILM, 1930–1950 Gina Bombola A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Tim Carter Mark Katz Chérie Rivers Ndaliko Jocelyn Neal ©2017 Gina Bombola ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Gina Bombola: “Can’t Help Singing”: The “Modern” Opera Diva in Hollywood Film, 1930–1950 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Following the release of Columbia Pictures’ surprise smash hit, One Night of Love (1934), major Hollywood studios sought to cash in on the public’s burgeoning interest in films featuring opera singers. For a brief period thereafter, renowned Metropolitan Opera artists such as Grace Moore and Lily Pons fared well at the box office, bringing “elite” musical culture to general audiences for a relatively inexpensive price. By the 1940s, however, the studios began grooming their own operatic actresses instead of transplanting celebrities from the stage. Stars such as Deanna Durbin, Kathryn Grayson, and Jane Powell thereby became ambassadors of opera from the highly commercial studio lot. My dissertation traces the shifts in film production and marketing of operatic singers in association with the rise of such cultural phenomena as the music-appreciation movement, all contextualized within the changing social and political landscapes of the United States spanning the Great Depression to the Cold War. Drawing on a variety of methodologies—including, among others, archival research, film analysis, feminist criticisms, and social theory—I argue that Hollywood framed opera as less of a European theatrical art performed in elite venues and more of a democratic, albeit still white, musical tradition that could be sung by talented individuals in any location.

  • Sharon Searles – Opera Singer, College Professor, Golfer
    Know Your Neighbor By Tim Palmer Sharon Searles – Opera Singer, College Professor, Golfer I will have to admit – I’m in over my head on this article. While I have been exposed to a variety of experiences in my short life, the arts didn’t get much time in my schedule and I am, therefore, woefully ignorant of the time and discipline required to succeed as an actor, painter or operatic performer. Fortunately for me, my conversation with Sharon Searles gave me a new appreciation for training and practice required to be a success in the dramatic arts. Sharon Searles’ life has been about singing. Born in Memphis, Tennessee as the middle of six children, Sharon has been in a musical environment her entire life. Both of her parents were active in musical activities at church – her father as the choir director and mother as organist. Her father owned his own plastics company, but was known for his interest in music and talent as a singer. As a result, his penchant for music permeated the family environment, where classical music was the only music allowed in the house. Sharon started piano at age six but didn’t become serious about singing until the eighth grade when she participated in stage performances. It wasn’t until high school that her voice changed dramatically and with that change came a very operatic sound. While singing was becoming an increasingly important part of her life, it was just one of many interests she had at that time. Sharon’s unique voice caught the ear of her teachers and they encouraged her to seek a music scholarship.

  • Rose Marie: I Don't Love You Ron Smith, Thompson Rivers University, Canada
    Rose Marie: I Don't Love You Ron Smith, Thompson Rivers University, Canada Pierre Berton, in his book Hollywood's Canada, challenges the Hollywood image of Canada, particularly the Canadian frontier. Berton states: And if Canadians continue to hold the belief that there is no such thing as a national identity – and who can deny that many hold it? – it is because the movies have frequently blurred, distorted, and hidden that identity under a celluloid mountain of misconceptions. (Berton, 1975: 12) Berton's queries about film images seem to suggest that without a clear understanding of history, we might be subject to the dreams and imaginations of others. In Berton's case, "the others" are Hollywood producers and directors. Geoff Pevere and Greig Dymond state that Americans have made many more Mountie movies than Canadians have, noting that "the inadvertent or intentional kitsch value of these is almost always rooted in the image of the Mountie's impossible purity or sense of duty." (Pevere and Dymond, 1996: 183) Michael Dawson, in That Nice Red Coat Goes To My Head Like Champagne: Gender, Antimodernism and the Mountie Image, points out that "Mounted Policemen appeared as central characters in over 250 feature films." (Dawson, 1997) Pierre Berton notes that by the early 1920s Hollywood had made 188 Mountie movies, forty-eight of them in the feature length mode that had become popular after 1914 (Berton, 1975: 112). Dawson adds that by the 1930s and 1940s "the film industry produced a body of work that consolidated the fictional Mountie position as both a mythic hero and commercial success." (Dawson, 1997) Rose Marie (1936) continued a theme that was associated with love and duty, but which had very little to do with "true story claims" about the Mounted Police.

  • Two Hawaiian Careers in Grand Opera
    DALE E. HALL Two Hawaiian Careers in Grand Opera WHEN WE THINK of Hawaiians and music, the sounds of steel gui- tars and 'ukulele are more apt to come to mind than opera or sym- phony. Native Hawaiian culture, of course, has its own musical tradition, mainly vocal, dating from ancient times; chant or mele continues to exist today side by side with other kinds of Hawaiian styles influenced by both classical and popular Western music. Hawaiians are also well-known as composers and performers of Western-influenced Hawaiian popular music, but their contribu- tions to Western classical music are less well-known. Among Native Hawaiians born in the 19th century, very few became prominent as composers or performers in the Western art tradition, a circumstance which is hardly surprising since the total Hawaiian population, then, as now, is quite small as compared with the total population on which Western music draws. Queen Lili'uokalani was among those who learned enough about West- ern music to write down her own songs. Her Aloha c0e, for example, was influenced by the style of 19th-century himeni or Protestant hymns with texts translated into Hawaiian.1 The part- Hawaiian Charles E. King (1874-1950) composed the operetta, Prince of Hawaii, called a "Hawaiian opera" when it was per- formed in Honolulu in 1925.2 Part-Hawaiians and ali'i (aristo- crats, nobility) closely affiliated with the royal court attended con- Dale E.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 8, 1987; Designation List 197 LP-1359 MUSIC BOX THEATER, 239-247 West 45th Street. Built 1920; architects C. Howard Crane & E. George Kiehler. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1017, Lot 11. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Music Box Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 55). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty -one witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. Representatives of the two co-owners appeared at the hearing and indicated that neither had formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation.
