Date David Grubbs Chair of Examining Committee Date Norman Carey Executive Officer Supervisory Committee: Mark Spicer, advisor Eliot Bates, first reader Sylvia Kahan, supervisory committee THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK iii ABSTRACT Mashing through the Conventions: Convergence of Popular and Classical Music in the Works of The Piano Guys by Alina Kiryayeva Advisor: Mark Spicer This dissertation is dedicated to examining the symbiosis between popular music and Western classical music in classical/popular mashups––a new style within the classical crossover genre. The research features the works of The Piano Guys, a contemporary ensemble that combines classical crossover characteristics and the techniques from modern sample-based styles to reconceptualize and reuse classical and popular works. This fusion demonstrates a new approach to presenting multi-genre works, forming a separate musical and cultural niche for this creative practice. This dissertation consists of three chapters. The first chapter is further divided into two thematic discourses: genre and authorship. The research draws on Eric Drott’s (2013) position that contemporary genre definition is a heterogeneous product of technological and cultural shifts in creation, production and presentation of music. Following Thomas Johnson’s (2018) research on genre in post-millennial popular music, the first part of the chapter traces chronological developments of genre categorizations and attempts to place classical/popular mashups as a separate style within the contemporary genre framework. The second part investigates the transformations and the current state of authorship attributions in popular music and illustrates iv how group creativity and consumer participation prompt multiple authorial distributions in classical/popular mashups. Applying Topic Theory established by Robert Hatten (1985) and Kofi Agawu (1992) and concepts of intertexuality developed by Serge Lacasse (2000, 2018) to the works of The Piano Guys and other musical works of the same style, the second chapter presents a comparative analysis, revealing a multi-layered structure of signification different from the intertextual and topical relationships found in the works of other styles. In the third chapter the detailed exploration of three works by The Piano Guys places these methodological theories in dialogue with formal analysis to draw out a series of quantifiable technical, musical and interpretive characteristics that differentiate “classically originated” mashups from similar practices in other genres. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my advisor, Mark Spicer, who has been a continuous source of support, motivation and inspiration. I am deeply grateful for his generosity in sharing his knowledge and his time, his limitless patience, invaluable advice and professional guidance. I am immensely grateful to Eliot Bates, for his perceptive feedback for revising this dissertation and for his ideas for future research. Additionally, I am very thankful to David Grubbs for his insightful comments and suggestions that helped me shape my research. I am also grateful to Sylvia Kahan for her invaluable professional input to this work. I thank Norman Carey whose support and mentorship during my years at The Graduate Center has made it possible for me to finish this journey. I am deeply indebted to him for his guidance, his understanding and advisement that greatly influenced my professional decisions. I would also like to thank Jackie Martelle for her infinite patience, unwavering kindness and an uncanny ability to give the right advice when I needed it most. Special thanks to my friend and colleague Terry Barber for sharing his extensive knowledge of popular music, for his practical advice and ingenious suggestions. And, finally, I would like to thank my husband Denis Gostev for ideas that inspired the topic of this dissertation, for helping me to clarify my concepts, for continuous encouragement and indefatigable belief that I can do this work. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................................................

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 What Grove printed under ‘Gay and Lesbian Music’ was not entirely what we intended, from the title on. Since we were allotted only two 2500 words and wrote almost five times as much, we inevitably expected cuts. These came not as we feared in the more theoretical sections, but in certain other tar- geted areas: names, popular music, and the role of women. Though some living musicians were allowed in, all those thought to be uncomfortable about their sexual orientation’s being known were excised, beginning with Boulez.

  • Teaching Guide: Area of Study 7
    Teaching guide: Area of study 7 – Art music since 1910 This resource is a teaching guide for Area of Study 7 (Art music since 1910) for our A-level Music specification (7272). Teachers and students will find explanations and examples of all the musical elements required for the Listening section of the examination, as well as examples for listening and composing activities and suggestions for further listening to aid responses to the essay questions. Glossary The list below includes terms found in the specification, arranged into musical elements, together with some examples. Melody Modes of limited transposition Messiaen’s melodic and harmonic language is based upon the seven modes of limited transposition. These scales divide the octave into different arrangements of semitones, tones and minor or major thirds which are unlike tonal scales, medieval modes (such as Dorian or Phrygian) or serial tone rows all of which can be transposed twelve times. They are distinctive in that they: • have varying numbers of pitches (Mode 1 contains six, Mode 2 has eight and Mode 7 has ten) • divide the octave in half (the augmented 4th being the point of symmetry - except in Mode 3) • can be transposed a limited number of times (Mode 1 has two, Mode 2 has three) Example: Quartet for the End of Time (movement 2) letter G to H (violin and ‘cello) Mode 3 Whole tone scale A scale where the notes are all one tone apart. Only two such scales exist: Shostakovich uses part of this scale in String Quartet No.8 (fig. 4 in the 1st mvt.) and Messiaen in the 6th movement of Quartet for the End of Time.

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

  • The Piano Guys Reach 1 Billion Views on Youtube
    Sony Music Media Contacts: Angela Barkan / Larissa Slezak [email protected] [email protected] 212-833-8575 / 6075 THE PIANO GUYS REACH 1 BILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE Photo Credit: Tim Norris (August 8, 2016 - New York, NY) – The Piano Guys celebrate a monumental landmark, reaching 1 Billion views on YouTube for their innovative music videos. On Saturday night at their concert at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, YouTube honored them with a plaque commemorating this exciting achievement. According to YouTube – just over 100 artist channels, including some of the biggest icons in the world, have reached the 1 billion view mark. Of their latest landmark, Steven Sharp Nelson says: “A billion is a big number. Especially for a quartet of dads who just started making music videos for fun. Honestly, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. We feel like there have been so many miracles to make this possible that we are simply along for the ride. Behind every view is someone that has spent their time and sometimes their hard-earned money in support of us. We’ve built this on their shoulders. We also feel like there have been lots of answered prayers along the way too. No matter how big the number gets, we’ve promised ourselves that we’ll never lose sight of this. We were in the middle of tour when the big billionth view boomed so we celebrated the best way we know how – by thanking our audience personally!” In addition to their loyal YouTube fan base, the four dads from Utah recently celebrated an official RIAA Gold Album Certification for their first album - The Piano Guys.

  • The Piano Guys – Primary Wave Music
    THE PIANO GUYS facebook.com/ThePianoGuys instagram.com/thepianoguys twitter.com/thepianoguys Imageyoutube.com/user/ThePianoGuys not found or type unknown thepianoguys.com en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Piano_Guys open.spotify.com/artist/0jW6R8CVyVohuUJVcuweDI Technically, the Piano Guys are the duo of pianist Jon Schmidt and cellist Steven Sharp Nelson, but they’re also a 21st-century multimedia collective that includes Paul Anderson and studio engineer and writer Al van der Beek. Together they produce musical and video gems that mash up classical themes with pop songs — making the group’s YouTube channel one of the most visited on the planet. The Piano Guys began in St. George, Utah, where Anderson owned a piano shop. Schmidt walked in one day and asked if he could practice on one of the pianos for an upcoming concert. Soon Anderson and Schmidt were recording and making videos together, and with the addition of Nelson, posting them to YouTube. Things continued to grow and expand creatively with van der Beek aboard, and the collective’s productions became joyous, thoughtful, and beautiful interactive musical videos that received millions of YouTube hits and brought the Piano Guys worldwide attention. After a self-released debut in 2011 called Hits, Vol. 1, an eponymous album appeared in 2012 via Sony Masterworks. It was followed by Piano Guys 2 in 2013 and a holiday album, A Family Christmas, in 2014. Released that same year, Wonders proved to be the duo’s highest-charting album to date, peaking at the number 12 spot on the Billboard 200. Two years later, the quartet returned with their sixth studio album, Uncharted.

  • What Classical Music Is (Not the Final Text, but a Riff on What
    Rebirth: The Future of Classical Music Greg Sandow Chapter 4 – What Classical Music Is (not the final text, but a riff on what this chapter will say) In this chapter, I’ll try to define classical music. But why? Don’t we know what it is? Yes and no. We’re not going to confuse classical music with other kinds of music, with rock, let’s say, or jazz. But can we say how we make these distinctions? You’d think we could. And yet when we look at definitions of classical music—either formal ones, in dictionaries, or informal ones, that we’d deduce by looking around at the classical music world—we run into trouble. As we’ll see, these definitions imply that classical music is mostly old music (and, beyond that, old music only of a certain kind). And they’re full of unstated assumptions about classical music’s value. These assumptions, working in the background of our thoughts, make it hard to understand what classical music really is. We have to fight off ideas about how much better it might be than other kinds of music, ideas which—to people not involved with classical music, the very people we need to recruit for our future audience—can make classical music seem intimidating, pompous, unconvincing. And so here’s a paradox. When we expose these assumptions, when we develop a factual, value-free definition of classical music, only then can we find classical music’s real value, and convincingly set out reasons why it should survive. [2] Let’s start with common-sense definition of classical music, the one we all use, without much thought, when we say we know what classical music is when we hear it.
