The Glorious Music Score By Bernard Anthony
The another major feature of this film is the soundtrack done by Bernard Hermann just before his death. The glorious music score by Hermann accompanies the light and shadows of the film, and raises the visual images to a higher level that reveals the innermost world of Travis to the audience. It turns the life of an ordinary cabbie into a somewhat heroic epic and a vivacious vigilante at the same time, and leads us to empathize this lonely, nondescript figure that can be everyone at

    Jay Bocook

    The soundtrack “Tenuous Winners/Returning Home” can be heard here. Bocook utilizes poignant swells of sound, as well as tenuto markings and slurs on notes to effectively symbolize the strong feeling of despondency in the victors, despite their survival and returning home. The music then abruptly changes in measure 29 to the theme “Horn of Plenty.” Bocook stirs the audience back to life with the sudden crash of a cymbal, followed by the full volume of trumpet fanfare in the arguably most memorable soundtrack from the movie. In contrast with the first section of the arrangement, “Horn of Plenty” has a faster-paced tempo as well as louder dynamics, emphasizing and contributing to the memorable and moving theme. Staccato and accent articulation markings in this section also powerfully reflect the triumph and victory the Capitol is experiencing during the…

    Cheryl Swope's Simply Classical

    Cheryl Swope begins her book, Simply Classical, by introducing the reader to her two children, whom she and her husband adopted. It was not long after adopting the children, who were twins, that Swope and her husband realized they were different. Both children suffered from a multitude of handicaps that made it impossible for them to develop on their own like normal children. These first chapters describe the effort, as well as the various methods, that Swope employed to help her children lead lives that were as normal as possible. Many times throughout the book, Swope lauds Classical Education, as the key to all her children's successes, but the time and effort that Swope put into training her children…

    Edgard Varèse: Music Analysis

    The first piece was Intègrales by Edgard Varèse (1883-1965). Edgard Victor Achille Charles Varèse was a French-born composer who spent the greater part of his career in the United States. He was innovator in 20th-century techniques of sound production. According to the www.allmusic.com, his concept of "organized sound" led to many experiments in form and texture. He was constantly on the lookout for new sound sources, and was one of the first to extensively explore percussion, electronics, and taped sounds. Intègrales was composed in 1925. I think this piece is very modern, and is a work for wind, brass, and percussion. I am not really enjoying this piece because it is a little noisy for me. The second piece is Coptic Light, and the composer…

    On Behalf Of The Fool By Gaunilo

    The key idea of the Ontological argument is that God exits in reality as well as in the understanding. Anselm’s first premise states that God exists in the understanding. The second premise states that God might have existed in reality. If something exits only in understanding and might have existed in reality, then it might have been greater than it is as stated in the third premise. If God can only exist as an idea in the mind, then we can imagine something greater than God. But we cannot imagine something that is greater than God. Therefore, God exists.…

    "The Maestro", by Peter Goldsworthy.

    The novel Maestro, by Peter Goldsworthy is a beautifully crafted novel dealing with the tragic gulf between talent and genius, between the real and the spurious. Good literature, however, is often judged not only by what is written, but also the way it is written. Reflecting this criteria, Maestro is well written, perfectly contrasted and thus an excellent example of a good piece of literature. Goldsworthy has achieved this thorough his character development, utilization of the settings and use of language.…

    Soundtrack analysis of "The Dark Knight Rises"

    Music has been in movies since the first “silent films” were made, and continues to be one of the most influential factors in determining how beautiful and lighthearted, or how horrific and tragic a film is perceived by the audience. This paper will provide an analysis of Hans Zimmer’s composition of the soundtrack to the movie The Dark Knight Rises. This dark, intense and emotionally pounding soundtrack pairs perfectly with the tension between the mysterious Batman character and his latest evil nemesis Bane. We will examine the musical characteristics of two selections from this soundtrack, the first selection examined is “Gotham’s Reckoning” which has become Bane’s primary theme music and will forever connect the audience with a feeling of impending doom. The second selection discussed is “Rise” the epic closing number in the movie that emotionally connects the listener to the previous films in the trilogy.…

    Gilbert & Sullivan- the Mikado

    Most would agree to say that two is better than one. William Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan are by any means no exception to this. Gilbert, a playwright, and Sullivan, a composer, combined their talents to make the dream team of musical theatre. Together they have made some of the greatest and sophisticated musicals the world will ever see.

The Mikado is a comical musical which poked fun at a few aspects of England’s culture at the time. It quickly became popular among both the British and Americans. It eventually became popular in many other countries, which was an extraordinary feat at the time.…

    William Golding's Theme

    A running theme in William Golding 's works is that man is savage at heart, always ultimately reverting back to an evil and primitive nature. The cycle of man 's rise to power, or righteousness, and his inevitable fall from grace is an important point that Golding proves again and again in many of his works, often comparing man with characters from the Bible to give a more vivid picture of his descent. Golding symbolizes this fall in different manners, ranging from the illustration of the mentality of actual primitive man to the reflections of a corrupt seaman in purgatory.…

    Mozart's The Magic Flute

    This article is a comparative analysis of Wolfgang Von Goethe sequel of Mozart’s The Magic Flute written by Robert McFarland, who is a professor at Brigham Young University where he teaches the German language and the German culture. He evaluates the continuum that Goethe followed by having Tamino and Pamina represent the strict polarizations between the gender roles that Mozart and Shikaneder marked in the libretto. Furthermore, he explores how the original opera illustrates the dispute between genders for power, in which women lose entirely becoming objects that merely follow men to marriage. After stating that the ultimate loser is the Queen of the Night, he explains weakness is attributed to her lack of a male supporter. For McFarland,…

    Classical Music Research Paper

    While is it is true that classical music is more complex, challenging and demanding, the merits of music are not based on rational or irrational/abstract discourse rather it is based on taste. Classical music cannot be listened with the same inattentiveness and distractions as other musical styles because there are many intricate details within classical music that set the ambiance and characters. To appreciate classical music properly you must give it your full attention, as well as some knowledge of musical form and structure. Due to a lack of words, the actions are transfigured in emotions, with the use of notations and chords. For instance, it was believed that specific chords and keys in classical music would arouse different moods based on the sound. Beethoven's 5th in C Minor, signified loss, coldness, and sorrow. However, it is the beauty within the simplicity of music that makes it that remarkably attractive and catchy.…

    Music of the Renaissance

    The Renaissance era occurred between 1400 and 1600 and was a revitalization of learning, commerce, exploration (Columbus who discovered Jamaica in 1492, Drake, Magellan, Balboa), scientific discovery (Galileo, da Vinci, Copernicus), and spectacular artistic achievement (da Vinci, Erasmus, Cervantes, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, Machiavelli, and Ronsard). Although Renaissance artists and philosophers were no less religious than those of the Middle Ages, they did seek to reconcile theological practice with the new spirit of scientific inquiry (a philosophy called Humanism[1] that pervaded this era). The Protestant Reformation (initiated in 1517 by Martin Luther 's inquiries against the teachings of the Catholic Church, and the resultant founding of the Lutheran denomination) also had a tremendous impact on Renaissance music. This religious rebellion was further solidified in 1534 when King Henry VIII of England established his own church (Anglican) because the Pope refused to allow Henry to divorce his first wife, Katherine of Aragon (who could not bear him a son/future heir to the English throne).…
