Book excerpt: Dive into the Melodic Magic of Cinema's Past and Present! Ever found yourself humming a song from a classic film, or marveling at the intricate dance sequences that defined eras of cinematic history? Tunes of the Times is your passport to an enthralling journey through the transformative world of musical films. Unearth the origins, celebrate the golden eras, and embrace the innovative present of this beautiful blend of visuals and vocals. The silent beginnings were more than just muted movies. They were the canvas on which the foundation of musical cinema was laid. Discover how the early 'talkies' paved the way for a genre that would captivate audiences for generations. From the initial whispers of sound to the mesmerizing musicals that graced the silver screen, this book meticulously captures each pivotal moment. Relive the Golden Age of Hollywood, where musicals became a symbol of hope, joy, and sometimes, escapist dreams. The 1930s introduced us to new cinematic possibilities, the 1940s anchored us during wartime with uplifting tunes, and the 1950s painted our screens with the vivacious colors of Technicolor dreams. Each era, with its unique flavor, changed the way we perceived musical films. But what's a story without its twists and turns? The transitional years of the 1960s and 1970s saw experimentation and rock operas, challenging traditional norms and ushering in new narratives. And as we approached contemporary times, the evolution didn't stop. The influence of pop culture, the Disney renaissance, and the push for innovation and diversity in the 2000s reshaped the landscape of musical cinema. Delve deeper into the themes that make musicals resonate with us--love, romance, social commentary, fantasy. Understand the meticulous effort behind direction, choreography, set design, and the magic of sound and score that binds the narrative. Celebrate the iconic performers, directors, composers, and lyricists who became legends in their own right. And for those with a global palate, the book offers a special treat--a look into Bollywood's melodious masterpieces, European innovations, and musicals from every corner of the world. As we trace the profound impact and legacy of musical films, Tunes of the Times allows us to reflect on cultural mirrors, accolades, and the promising future of this beloved genre. Whether you're a film student, a musical enthusiast, or someone who simply loves the allure of cinema, this book is a treasure trove of insights, anecdotes, and pure passion. Join us on this melodious journey and understand why, through the ages, musical films have remained an enduring, enchanting, and essential part of our cultural tapestry.

Book excerpt: “An intoxicating blend of music, love, and family from one of the essential writers of the internet generation” (Stephanie Danler). Have you ever wondered what your mother was like before she became your mother, and what she gave up in order to have you? It’s the early days of the new millennium, and Laura has arrived in New York City’s East Village in the hopes of recording her first album. A songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent, she’s just beginning to book gigs with her beautiful best friend when she falls hard for a troubled but magnetic musician whose star is on the rise. Their time together is stormy and short-lived—but will reverberate for the rest of Laura’s life. Fifteen years later, Laura’s teenage daughter, Marie, is asking questions about her father, questions that Laura does not want to answer. Laura has built a stable life in Brooklyn that bears little resemblance to the one she envisioned when she left Ohio all those years ago, and she’s taken pains to close the door on what was and what might have been. But neither her best friend, now a famous musician who relies on Laura’s songwriting skills, nor her depressed and searching daughter will let her give up on her dreams. “A zippy and profound story of love, loss, heredity, and par­enthood (Emma Straub), Perfect Tunes explores the fault lines in our most important relationships, and asks whether dreams deferred can ever be reclaimed. It is a delightful and poignant tale of music and motherhood, ambition and com­promise—of life, in all its dissonance and harmony.

Book Old Time Music Makers of New York State

Download or read book Old Time Music Makers of New York State written by Simon J. Bronner and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask an old-timer what life was like in rural upstate New York during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and you will hear about the dances and bees that brought villagers and farmers together. You will hear of favorite fiddlers who held center stage with dance tunes taken from early British and American sources. You will hear of old-time music and its significance to a people making the transition from a rural, agricultural life to an urban, industrial one. Old-Time Music Makers of New York State is the first book published on this rich legacy of traditional Anglo-American music and dance. It traces the development of old-time music beginning with its movement into New York State from New England in the early nineteenth century and to its combination with commercial country music in the twentieth century. Exploring the regional character of the music and its meaning co the people who enjoy it, Bronner introduces memorable figures from the major periods in the development of old-time music, and he places their stories, their lives, and their music in the context of the region's cultural and historical changes. This is much more than a regional study, however. Bronner brings to the fore issues of national scope and interest. He discusses the relationship of old-time music to the commercial country music with which it has been closely aligned, and he challenges the prevailing wisdom that the origins of country music are in the South. Musician, fan, folklorist, and historian alike will benefit from and enjoy this book. The many musical transcriptions, annotations, photographs, and appendixes provide a valuable reference to be used again and again.

Book Music Education for Changing Times

Download or read book Music Education for Changing Times written by Thomas A. Regelski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-10-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on topics that frame the debate about the future of professional music education, this book explores the issues that music teachers must confront in a rapidly shifting educational landscape. The book aims to challenge thought and change minds. It presents a star cast of internationally prominent thinkers in and beyond music education. These thinkers deliberately challenge many time-worn traditions in music education with regard to musicianship, culture and society, leadership, institutions, interdisciplinarity, research and theory, and curriculum. This is the first book to confront these issues in this way. This unique book has emerged from fifteen years of international dialog by The MayDay Group, an organization of more than 250 music educators from over 20 countries who meet yearly to confront issues in music teaching and learning.
