Book excerpt: Film music often tells us how to feel, but it also guides us how to hear. Filmgoing is an intensely musical experience, one in which the soundtrack structures our interpretations and steers our emotions. Hollywood Harmony explores the inner workings of film music, bringing together tools from music theory, musicology, and music psychology in this first ever book-length analytical study of this culturally central repertoire. Harmony, and especially chromaticism, is emblematic of the "film music sound," and it is often used to evoke that most cinematic of feelings-wonder. To help parse this familiar but complex musical style, Hollywood Harmony offers a first-of-its kind introduction to neo-Riemannian theory, a recently developed and versatile method of understanding music as a dynamic and transformational process, rather than a series of inert notes on a page. This application of neo-Riemannian theory to film music is perfect way in for curious newcomers, while also constituting significant scholarly contribution to the larger discipline of music theory. Author Frank Lehman draws from his extensive knowledge of cinematic history with case-studies that range from classics of Golden Age Hollywood to massive contemporary franchises to obscure cult-films. Special emphasis is placed on scores for major blockbusters such as Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Inception. With over a hundred meticulously transcribed music examples and more than two hundred individual movies discussed, Hollywood Harmony will fascinate any fan of film and music.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Simple Method of Modern Harmony, Vol. 1 of 2 1. Rhythm, Melody and Harmony are three essential factors of music. Rhythm is the change, but systematic grouping, of tones of various duration. If tones of different pitch are heard one after another in logical order, we get what is called Melody; if tones of different pitch are heard together, we get Harmony (a chord). In its widest sense Harmony means the science of chords, their relationship and connection. It is the laws of harmony that we shall explain in this book, but it will be seen as we proceed that the question of rhythm or melody is often so closely connected with that of harmony that it is impossible to treat of one without also paying some attention to the other. 2. Intervals. An interval is the distance and difference between two tones, heard one after the other or at the same moment. Intervals have numerical names. These names depend on the number of letters which are included from one key of the key-board to another, or from one line of the staff to another. Intervals are measured by means of half-steps (half tones or semi-tones) and whole steps. A half-step is the term of measurement for the smallest distance. It is the distance between any one note, and the nearest note to it, above or below. It is evident that two half-steps together will make a whole step. The nomenclature of intervals, especially the modified ones, is, unfortunately, in a somewhat confused state and not uniform in all textbooks. The classification adopted here will recommend itself for its simplicity, because the intervals are arranged into only three classes: normal, enlarged and narrowed. First of all we will learn the accurate size of the normal intervals, and then the modifications (augmentation and contraction) of them. The word prime means an interval of one degree; it also means the starting note, the one from which the other notes are counted.

Book excerpt: An excerpt from the Introduction: The swift current of modern musical art during the last ten or fifteen years seems at first glance to have ruthlessly swept away the whole of the theories of the past. The earnest student may well be excused if he is bewildered completely on rising up fresh from his theoretical treatises to plunge into the music of actual life — of the twentieth-century opera-houses, concert-halls, and music-rooms. The sincere mind can hardly be satisfied by the offhand opinions of hide-bound time-servers, who curtly dismiss these modern composers with a deprecatory wave of the hand! The whole of musical history — the initial rejection and later triumph of Monteverde and Gluck, of Bach and Beethoven, Wagner and Strauss — warns one against the too easy acceptance of the neatly turned epithets of persons who are too indolent to understand, or too indifferent to appreciate, a new kind of music which claims at once wide sympathies and considerable powers of concentration. Music which causes people to " hiss " and " boo " must contain at any rate some vitality, and is preferable consequently to that which speedily reduces the audience to a somnolent passivity. Even on short acquaintance these modern musicians have too much method in their so-called "modernity" to be dismissed thus cursorily. Ex nihilo nihil, and the more deeply our interest is roused, the more we feel convinced that the methods of the leaders of these many modern styles — or schools, or whatever we please to call them — are well founded on the rock-bed principles from which all the many secondary laws of art are drawn. It is the greatest possible mistake to view these modem schools as things separate from the art of the past. Indeed, most of the new traits are legitimate growths out of the art technique of the acknowledged great masters. Moreover, it does seem as if there were nothing new under the sun. Just as the principles of the twentieth-century "Cubism in painting were well known some 400 years ago, so the modern methods of part-writing and chord-building all find their prototypes time after time in the pages of the great masters of the past.
