The Sound Of Music Analysis

First off, Citizen Kane has an interesting interaction of still shots of a some type of castle, which is lead on to be creepy by the music in the background. The music creates a type of suspense or even a sense of curiosity. It sparks questions of to of why we are looking at this castle and slowly moving closer and closer. Music creates a build up until we see a body drop what looked like a snow globe or something, then it decrescendos to allow for the words to be mumbled out. In this intro if there were some type of cheery music going up to the caste it would not fit at all and would create an inaccurate idea of what may be about to happen or how the plot were to devolve in this movie.

The Proposal had music that fit the scenes really well. When people where talking there was subtle instrumental music in the back ground. When the actors where not talking the music was louder with words to fill in the silence quite nicely. The Blind Side had a great mix of music. There was dramatic music to fit the dramatic scenes.

Aniol begins the chapter by reemphasizing what he has stated in previous chapters and then discussing how that foundation will be built upon in this chapter. He believes, and I agree, that congregational music should express truth about God, be directed toward God, and have God glorifying, secondary horizontal effects. These three points truly put to rest many “Christian” rock artist’s claims that man-centered lyrics put to man-centered music can be profitable worship to God! Overall this chapter really challenged me to think constantly about my motivations when I am singing in the congregation, playing as part of the worship team, or even composing the music to be performed. All three aspects must be wholly devoted to God.

The score can 't come any closer to the plot itself, just like how Jacob goes back and forth between reality and his hallucinations, the main title goes back and forth from being a classical composition of strings and piano to full on electronic experimental new wave sounds. And it suits the movie so well, one might think the plot is based on the score not the other way

For many of the orchestra members, “the violin was a comforter in mankind’s darkest hour”. During their time spent in captivity, musicians were able to work in unison with other prisoners, bonding over their shared predicament through the vibratos of classical music. This redemption through music can be seen in Elie Wiesel’s Night through the character Juliek. Many of the musicians, like Juliek, felt as if their “soul were the bow”, and their “life was gliding on the strings”. Despite the fears of what was occurring around them, the musicians focused on the sheet music to get lost in their senses: envisions of their lost hopes, charred pasts and extinguished future filled their minds, but they expressed these fears instead by playing as if they would never play again.

I really love Sound of Music film, because the amazing plots, the great song in film and acting of the actor. The Sound of Music is a 1965 musical film adaptation of the book The Von Trapp Family Singers, written by Maria von Trapp , and contains a story as women name sister Maria.

”(p. 20) With this in mind, it is clear that music is a vital aspect of keeping society’s happiness and hope at a steady rate. It also signifies that without music there would be only darkness, and society would crumble because of

The film employs rhythmic and emotive variations on a single music theme, the theme of the story goes about telling the back story of The Four Seasons, the rhythmic and emotive variations stay pretty much the same throughout the plot. The music rarely gets intense scene to scene, and the music they are singing goes along with the story they sharing perfectly.

The volume of the music throughout the orchestra performance varies from low to high and carries different feeling with them. The rhythm of this piece is give the feeling of energy through the use of staggered rhythm, string, and accompanied by the timpani. The Harmony of the music

Through contrast and comparison, critically analyse the soundtrack, and its role in audio-visual media, by exploring two genre specific films of your choice. “An important factor in the success of a film score is the exact choice of scenes o moments where music can really speak effectively, so that it does not become a mere dim background”. (2009, p. 62) This quote from James Bernard really encapsulates the ways in which films approach their scores, this is shown in the Gothic horror, Dracula (1958) and the 1973 supernatural horror, The Exorcist. In neither film are the soundtracks “mere dim background” noise instead are extremely carefully constructed to heighten the intense horrific nature of both films.

The Sound of Music. In general SDH practice, well-known song and music titles are usually researched, and then subtitled with detailed information, such as the performer, writer and composer.

This movie Of Mice and Men was directed by Gary Sinise. The movie is about two men who want a ranch to buy, so they work at one. At the ranch you meet many characters, who I will talk about. There are also many twists and turns throughout the movie. There was a very intense and intriguing hook in the beginning of the book.

The dramatic contrast of dynamics between themes, pitch, chromatic harmonies and discords used in Night on Bald Mountain are still used in musical scores for horror movies. I remember hearing this music in Disney’s Fantasia and thinking, “Boy, do I need to run.” It still has that same effect. In the movie, Chernabog, the evil god, appears in the final segment of the film and summons spirits around the mountain. There’s not another score of music that could perfectly illustrate the final scene of Disney’s Fantasia than Night of Bald Mountain.

“La Mer” is a classical French piece of music that was written by Debussy in the twentieth century. The song begins with a disjunct sound caused by the different melodies and harmonies being played by different sections of the orchestra. Slowly out of the chaos brings a light, airy feeling that was accomplished by the help of a flute and violin solo. The excitement again grows causing a repetitive feel, but this time it is cultivated by the brass and the percussion sections that cause a tremendous increase in the volume of the piece. The song is halted, and proceeds as the cellos crescendo which seems to have a direct correlation to an increase in tempo.

On the other hand, a technical achievement in this film is the music. As mention previously this element is what keeps Rebecca as a constant presence in Mr. and second Mrs. De Winter´s life, even though
