  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

    FLAGLER MUSEUM THE STRADIVARI QUARTET February 7, 2012 7:30 p.m. Sponsored by WILLIAM R. KENAN, JR. CHARITABLE TRUST THE STRADIVARI QUARTET Xiaoming Wang Soyoung Yoon Lech Antonio Uszynski Maja Weber violin violin viola cello PROGRAM String Quartet in G minor, D. 173 FRANZ SCHUBERT Allegro con brio Andantino Menuetto: Allegro vivace Allegro String Quartet No. 4 BÉLA BARTÓK Allegro Prestissimo, con sordino Non troppo lento Allegretto pizzicato Allegro molto INTERMISSION String Quartet in A minor, Op. 51, No. 2 JOHANNES BRAHMS Allegro non troppo Andante moderato Quasi Minuetto, moderato Chamber music, as we know it, began in the Baroque era with early trio sonatas, and some of history’s greatest composers used chamber music as a vehicle to create their most profound and important works. Others used the medium as an outlet for fun and lighthearted entertainment. The music was traditionally performed in homes. The Flagler name has long been associated with great music, as Henry and Mary Lily Flagler frequently hosted musical performances in Whitehall’s elaborate Music Room. The Flagler Museum Music Series captures the spirit of traditional chamber music, and welcomes world renowned performers to the finest chamber music venue in South Florida. Here, performers and visitors can experience chamber music as it was intended in a gracious and intimate setting. Due to its intimate nature, chamber music has been described as “the music of friends.” Consequently it is frowned upon to use stages and amplifying devices. The audio devices you will see tonight record the performance for national public radio broadcast and archival purposes.

  • Mozart's Music of Friends
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-09365-2 - Mozart’s Music of Friends: Social Interplay in the Chamber Works Edward Klorman Frontmatter More information Mozart’s Music of Friends In 1829 Goethe famously described the string quartet as “aconver- sation among four intelligent people.” Inspired by this metaphor, Edward Klorman’s study draws on a wide variety of documentary and iconographic sources to explore Mozart’s chamber works as “the music of friends.” Illuminating the meanings and historical foundations of comparisons between chamber music and social interplay, Klorman infuses the analysis of sonata form and phrase rhythm with a performer’s sensibility. He develops a new analytical method called multiple agency that interprets the various players within an ensemble as participants in stylized social intercourse – characters capable of surprising, seducing, outwitting, and even deceiving one another musically. This book is accompanied by online resources that include original recordings performed by the author and other musicians, as well as video analyses that invite the reader to experience the interplay in time, as if from within the ensemble. edward klorman is Assistant Professor of Music Theory and Viola at Queens College and The Graduate Center, City University of New York (CUNY). He also teaches graduate analysis seminars and chamber music performance at The Juilliard School, where he was founding chair of the Music Theory and Analysis department. Committed to intersections between musical scholarship and per- formance, he currently serves as co-chair of the Performance and Analysis Interest Group of the Society for Music Theory. He has performed as guest artist with the Borromeo, Orion, and Ying Quar- tets and the Lysander Trio, and he is featured on two albums of chamber music from Albany Records.

    Program Notes & Translations Faculty Recital, Karisa L. Templeton, soprano Featuring Tyler Wottrich, piano Saturday, May 1, 2021 at 4:00 PM, Beckwith Recital Hall DVOŘÁK Czech composer Antonín Dvořák (1841-1904) is best known for his mAny chamber, chorAl, And symphonic works, especiAlly his “New World Symphony” No. 9. Dvořák Also wrote 8 operAs, of which Rusalka has become part of the operAtic cAnon. Based on the Hans ChristiAn Anderson fAiry tAle The Little Mermaid, this 1901 Czech operA uses elements of folklore and supernAturAl powers to tell the story of the wAter nymph RusAlkA And her desire to leAve the wAter to pursue A prince’s love. In contrAst to other settings of The Little Mermaid, Rusalka’s ending features the dArker elements of Anderson’s originAl folk story. The music is hAuntingly beautiful, both RomAntic And impressionistic with strong Czech stylistic elements. In ‘Song to the Moon,” RusAlkA, A wAter nymph, is sAddened thAt she is sepArAted from her beloved Prince who lives on lAnd. In this Act I opening AriA, she looks into the night sky And begs the moon to cArry her words of love through its beAms of light. While RusAlkA is sepArAted from her beloved, she is comforted thAt the sAme moonlight thAt touches her equAlly shines down on her love. Reminiscent of the moonlight rippling Across the wAters of her home towArds the Prince, An ArpeggiAted “rippling” motif, originally scored for harp, is present in the piano AccompAniment throughout the piece.

  • Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-Rock, 1950–2019
    Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-rock, 1950–2019 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nicholas J. Shea, M.A., B.Ed. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 Dissertation Committee: Anna Gawboy, Advisor and Dissertation Co-Advisor Nicole Biamonte, Dissertation Co-Advisor Daniel Shanahan David Clampitt Copyright by Nicholas J. Shea 2020 Abstract This dissertation explores the relationship between guitar performance and the functional components of musical organization in popular-music songs from 1954 to 2019. Under an ecological theory of affordances, three distinct interdisciplinary approaches are employed: empirical analyses of two stylistically contrasting databases of popular-music song transcriptions, a motion-capture study of performances by practicing musicians local to Columbus, Ohio, and close readings of works performed and/or composed by popular- music guitarists. Each offers gestural analyses that provide an alternative to the object- oriented approach of standard popular-music analysis, as well as clarification on issues related to style, such as the socially determined differences between “pop” and “rock” music. ii Dedication To Anna Gawboy, who is always in my corner. iii Acknowledgments Here I face the nearly insurmountable task of thanking those who have helped to develop this research. Even as all written and analytical content in this document is my own, I cannot deny the incredible value collaboration has brought to this inherently interdisciplinary study. I am extremely fortunate to have a small team of individuals on which I can rely for mentorship and support and whose research backgrounds contribute greatly to the domains of this document.

  • Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton As Microcosm Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton As Microcosm
    INDIE ROCK SUBCULTURE: HAMILTON AS MICROCOSM INDIE ROCK SUBCULTURE: HAMILTON AS MICROCOSM By KATHLEEN DAVIES, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Kathleen Davies, April 2006 MASTER OF ARTS (2006) McMaster University (Music Criticism) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Indie Rock Subculture: Hamilton as Microcosm AUTHOR: Kathleen Davies, B.A. (McMaster University) NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 123 11 ABSTRACT In recent years, interest in the indie rock subculture has exploded, both in the popular press and among popular music scholars and culture theorists. This is an ethnographic study of the indie rock scene in Hamilton, Ontario. Hamilton represents a microcosm of what is happening in other local indie scenes. The geographical, historical and cultural locality of Hamilton creates a sense of shared identity among individuals connected by the common interest in indie rock. This study focuses on how independent rock's network of social practices and economic institutions works to locate subjects within Hamilton's local network while connecting them to the larger framework of interlocal scenes. Aspects of the local and interlocal are explored through narratives of indie aesthetics, style, fashion, institutions, cultural practices, authenticity and investment. Cultural practices, including the production and consumption of indie rock are examined through the lens of Bourdieu' s concept of cultural capital, which exposes constructions and configurations of class, generation, ethnicity, and gender. 111 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thank you to: Dr. Susan Fast for her encouragement to pursue my Masters degree. Dr. Christina Baade. As my supervisor of research, her guidance and encouragement helped ensure this project came to fruition.

  • MTO 23.2: Graybill, Review of Edward Klorman, Mozart™S Music of Friends: Social Interplay in the Chamber Works
    Review of Edward Klorman, Mozart’s Music of Friends: Social Interplay in the Chamber Works (Cambridge University Press, 2016) Roger Graybill KEYWORDS: performance and analysis, Mozart, 18th-century chamber music Received DATE Volume 23, Number 2, June 2017 Copyright © 2017 Society for Music Theory [1] Edward Klorman’s superb monograph Mozart’s Music of Friends: Social Interplay in the Chamber Works adopts an insider’s vantage point on the relationship between performance and analysis. His avowed aim in writing the book is to communicate insights gained through “rehearsals, coachings, performances, and especially sight-reading parties,” a task that he characterizes as a kind of translation from “‘Performerspeak’ into ‘Theoryspeak’” (292). Given his credentials as both a performer and theorist, he is uniquely positioned to undertake such a translation. The result is a remarkably original addition to the burgeoning music-theoretical literature on performance and analysis. [2] The primary music-theoretical objective of Mozart’s Music of Friends is to propose and elucidate an analytical tool, multiple agency, which involves “multiple, independent characters—often represented by the individual instruments—who engage in a seemingly spontaneous interaction involving the exchange of roles and/or musical ideas” (122). An especially striking feature of the study is its extensive drawing on music-historical evidence to support its analytical approach. Indeed, Klorman structures the book in a way that grants equal status to historical background and analytical content, with Part 1: Historical Perspectives comprising chapters 1–3, and Part 2: Analytical Perspectives, chapters 4–7. [3] Klorman has two main objectives in Part 1. First, he seeks to recover the chamber music culture of late eighteenth-century Europe, with special focus on the Viennese musical scene.
