Updated March 12, 2021 LEITMOTIFS ORIGINAL T RILOGY (7) NOTES 1. The Main Theme doubles as a character theme for Luke Skywalker. The characteristic fVIIV half-cadence at the conclusion of each phrase is a potential source of the Rebel Fanfare. While not an independent leitmotif, the MT's B-Section is occasionally heard in isolation & detached from the first phrase. 2. The Rebel Fanfare is a good case-study in the kinds of semantic migration to which leitmotifs are prone. It begins firmly as a motif for the Rebellion in ANH, but by TFA and especially Solo, it can behave an all-purpose heroic motif, and sometimes as a theme specifically for the Millennium Falcon. It is heard only in the End Titles in TPM and AOTC, and hinted in an unused portion of 7M1 in TPM. 3. The Force Theme is the most common & flexible leitmotif in this series. It can also be considered a theme for Obi Wan, Fate/Destiny, or an All-Purpose s3 leitmotif. An alternative harmonization w/ fII instead of IV is introduced and used fitfully in ESB & ROTJ, but utilized extensively thereafter, esp. ROTS. 4. The Death Star also serves as a generic motif for Imperial Ships. An alternate form of the motif arpeggiates Cm in its first measure rather than Am. A major version also occurs in ROTJ's Sail Barge Assault. A handful of extremely close variant appear in a pair of unused cue in TFA, 2m16 and 4m30. 5. TIE Fighter Attack was originally a set-piece theme for a memorable action set-piece from ANH, with a syncopated main theme and interstitial material based on the Rebel Fanfare and Death Star motifs. Reuse in ROTJ, TLJ, and Solo leads to its retroactive leitmotivic designation, namely as another theme for the Millennium Falcon in action scenes. 6. From ESB onward, the Imperial March supplants the Imperial Motif, and doubles as a theme for Darth Vader. It contains a clear example of harmonic associativity. Beyond the iconic melody, the leitmotif is undergirded by a characteristic ifvi triadic progression (e.g. GmEfm) which, starting in ROTJ and through all the prequels & sequels, can be detached from the melodic content of the theme, & signify/develop independently. Similarly, the Imperial March Vamp associated with the theme is itself detachable, and treated as an Incidental Motif (#24). 7. The nervous motif established during the Bridge Section of the Imperial March t is rarely actually used in ESB. It is developed to an appreciable in ROTJ, both independently and as a source for It’s a Trap. The Bridge Section is faintly related to Kylo Ren 1 and more closely to the Knights of Ren, though direct derivation is questionable given the prevalence of chromatic double neighbor motifs in Williams's output. 8. Han and Leia has been mistakenly put forward as a theme specifically for Han Solo himself (see Bird 1997), but evidence overwhelmingly indicates Williams intended it as a love theme between those two characters (see, for ex., Arnold 1980). The B-section interestingly resembles Kylo Ren's Redeemed motif. 9. The Droid Motif, seemingly abandoned for good after ESB, was covertly referenced as an ostinato in Solo, and one near-rendition in ROTJ R10P5. 10. The Cloud City in ESB introduces a cluster of new themes. Of them, the stately Lando's Palace is the most obvious. A more subtle repeated-note motif, Trouble in Bespin, occurs prominently within the R8P2, and returns at various later junctures, notably R9P6 and R12P1.

Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

  • A Study of Musical Affect in Howard Shore's Soundtrack to Lord of the Rings
    PROJECTING TOLKIEN'S MUSICAL WORLDS: A STUDY OF MUSICAL AFFECT IN HOWARD SHORE'S SOUNDTRACK TO LORD OF THE RINGS Matthew David Young A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC IN MUSIC THEORY May 2007 Committee: Per F. Broman, Advisor Nora A. Engebretsen © 2007 Matthew David Young All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Per F. Broman, Advisor In their book Ten Little Title Tunes: Towards a Musicology of the Mass Media, Philip Tagg and Bob Clarida build on Tagg’s previous efforts to define the musical affect of popular music. By breaking down a musical example into minimal units of musical meaning (called musemes), and comparing those units to other musical examples possessing sociomusical connotations, Tagg demonstrated a transfer of musical affect from the music possessing sociomusical connotations to the object of analysis. While Tagg’s studies have focused mostly on television music, this document expands his techniques in an attempt to analyze the musical affect of Howard Shore’s score to Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. This thesis studies the ability of Shore’s film score not only to accompany the events occurring on-screen, but also to provide the audience with cultural and emotional information pertinent to character and story development. After a brief discussion of J.R.R. Tolkien’s description of the cultures, poetry, and music traits of the inhabitants found in Middle-earth, this document dissects the thematic material of Shore’s film score.

    POPS FOUR We Have Liftoff! The Rocket City in Space SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 2020 • 7:30 p.m. • MARK C. SMITH CONCERT HALL, VON BRAUN CENTER Huntsville Symphony Orchestra • C. DAVID RAGSDALE, Guest Conductor • GREGORY VAJDA, Music Director One of the nation’s major aerospace hubs, Huntsville—the “Rocket City”—has been heavily invested in the industry since Operation Paperclip brought more than 1,600 German scientists to the United States between 1945 and 1959. The Army Ballistic Missile Agency arrived at Redstone Arsenal in 1956, and Eisenhower opened NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in 1960 with Dr. Wernher von Braun as Director. The Redstone and Saturn rockets, the “Moon Buggy” (Lunar Roving Vehicle), Skylab, the Space Shuttle Program, and the Hubble Space Telescope are just a few of the many projects led or assisted by Huntsville. Tonight’s concert celebrates our community’s vital contributions to rocketry and space exploration, at the most opportune of celestial conjunctions: July 2019 marked the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission, and 2020 brings the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, America’s leading aerospace museum and Alabama’s largest tourist attraction.
