  • Character Breakdown
    WEATHERVANE PLAYHOUSE 2015 WINTER PRODUCTION of CHESS Character Breakdown FLORENCE - strong belt voice (to E). Mid-thirties. Born in Hungary (so shouldn’t look like the “All-American Girl”); has been brought up in America since 1956. She is clever, theatrical, touching, vivacious, volatile. Frederick’s chess “second.” FREDDIE - Rock tenor (to C). Mid-thirties. An American chess champion. A cross between Bobby Fisher and John McEnroe. Arrogant and temperamental, but a genius; his chess playing revolutionary. We need to see his artistry along with his danger and his obsessiveness. ANATOLY - Baritone (to G sharp). Early forties. A Russian chess champion. Unexpectedly charming. He doesn't seem a romantic hero at first, but becomes one through his personality. An intelligent, feeling, passionate man. MOLOKOV - Bass (down to F sharp). Fifties. Not a fake, comic, stage Russian. Intellectually formidable. Seemingly a father figure to Florence. Anatoly’s chess “second.” An actor who sings well. SVETLANA - strong belt voice. Late thirties. Anatoly’s wife. Domestic, wholesome, homey. A dramatic contrast to Florence - not a contemporary cosmopolitan woman. WALTER - Bass-Baritone (down to G sharp). Fifties. A marketing agent. Seemingly respectable, substantial, trustworthy. An actor who sings well. ARBITER - rock high baritone (up to A). Thirty to early forties. International businessman. Smooth, but with a quick temper. YOUNG FLORENCE: Young version of Florence MALE & FEMALE ENSEMBLE: Requires a large chorus of very strong singers and actors CHESS Auditions: 10/10/15-10/11/15 CHESS Rehearsals & Performances: 12/2/15-12/27/15 For additional questions, please contact Kaitlin Brucker (Theatre Manager) or Adam Karsten (Managing Artistic Director) at [email protected], visit www.weathervaneplayhouse.org or call 740-366-4616.

    LOW MALE VOICE REPERTOIRE IN CONTEMPORARY MUSICAL THEATRE: A STUDIO AND PERFORMANCE GUIDE OF SELECTED SONGS 1996-2020 by Jeremy C. Gussin Submitted to the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, Doctor of Music Indiana University December 2020 Accepted by the faculty of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Music Doctoral Committee __________________________________________ Ray Fellman, Research Director __________________________________________ Brian Gill, Chair __________________________________________ Jane Dutton __________________________________________ Peter Volpe December 10, 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 Jeremy Gussin iii Preface This project is intended to be a resource document for bass voices and teachers of low male voices at all levels. For the purposes of this document, I will make use of the established term low male voice (LMV) while acknowledging that there is a push for the removal of gender from voice classification in the industry out of respect for our trans, non-binary and gender fluid populations. In addition to analysis and summation of musical concepts and content found within each selection, each repertoire selection will include discussions of style, vocal technique, vocalism, and character in an effort to establish routes towards authenticity in the field of musical theatre over the last twenty five years. The explosion of online streaming and online sheet music resources over the last decade enable analysis involving original cast recordings, specific noteworthy performances, and discussions on transposition as it relates to the honoring of character and capability of an individual singer. My experiences with challenges as a young low voice (waiting for upper notes to develop, struggling with resonance strategies above a D♭4) with significant musicianship prowess left me searching for a musically challenging outlet outside of the Bel Canto aesthetic.

  • Grammy-Winning Trumpeter Terence Blanchard Performs in Houston
    Grammy-Winning Trumpeter Terence Blanchard Performs in Houston Hear the legendary musician and film composer blare his trumpet at the Wortham Center this Saturday. By Chris Becker 4/18/2017 at 4:00pm THROUGHOUT THE ’60S AND ’70S, many jazz musicians started incorporating elements of funk, R&B and psychedelic rock into their music to reflect the social and political changes of the times. The result was a new form of jazz fusion that inspired successful bands like Herbie Hancock’s Headhunters, Weather Report, Chicago, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Today, New Orleans-born trumpeter Terence Blanchard’s new band, The E-Collective, is performing its own hybrid of serious ’70s funk, contemporary R&B and hard rock that speaks to the social and political turmoil of our time. Led by 55-year-old Blanchard, the band’s current lineup features Charles Altura (guitar), Fabian Almazan (piano, keyboards), David Ginyard Jr. (bass), Oscar Seaton (drums) and Tondrae Kemp (vocals). Soaring above this groove-centric ensemble is Blanchard’s trumpet, a custom-designed, full-weight RAJA made by Monette, sometimes augmented with harmonized delay to create wild, otherworldly textures, but never at the cost of his rich, expressive tone. This Saturday, Blanchard and The E-Collective take the stage at the Wortham Center’s Cullen Theater, and will no doubt set the roof on fire (figuratively speaking). For those who only know Blanchard as a skilled master of classic jazz, The E-Collective may sound like a departure. Whether tearing it up on the Mary J. Blige-esque ballad “Shutting Down,” which was sung on the album by singer and Maroon 5 keyboardist PJ Morton, or channeling his inner Star Child on the majestic “Cosmic Warrior,” Blanchard’s performance is perfectly suited to the music’s amplified, electric atmosphere.
