Pender R: Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney
Todd

Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd

Behind the Bloody Musical Masterpiece

Discover John Kander and Fred Ebb, the most artistically and commercially successful musical theatre writing team since Rodgers and Hammerstein, in a brand new way. Identifying the theatrical approach that renders their musical dramaturgy unique, this book explores their importance within, and contribution to, musical theatre history. Through their biggest hits, Cabaret (1966) and Chicago (1975), Kander and Ebb have been performed on the stage more times both within and outside of the USA than any other American musical theatre writers. Unlike Sondheim, whose work from 1964 increasingly aspired towards the avant-garde, Kander and Ebb located their projects in a nexus between art and commercial entertainment, seeking to deconstruct popular forms in order to expose their ideological function. This book investigates the full range of Kander and Ebb's collaboration from the pure comic entertainment of 70, Girls, 70 (1971) and Curtains (2006) to more overtly serious musicals such as Kiss of the Spiderwoman (1992), The Scottsboro Boys (2010) and The Visit (2014), which were less commercially successful precisely because they addressed disturbing subjects. It explores how the difficult material inspired beautiful, though challenging, scores. It also probes how the ironic counterpointing of luscious music with witty and demotic lyrics challenges the desire of a Broadway audience for escapist entertainment, devoid of critical self-reflection, in order to create complex, yet popular, masterpieces of the genre. This is the first volume to explicitly analyse the recurrent theatrical tropes and dramaturgical forms in Kander and Ebb's musicals, offering an in-depth introduction to their oeuvre.

This book posits a novel framework for sense-making and meaning-making in the play of video games. Extending an audience-inclusive philosophy of artistic meaning generation, the book grapples with how to critically examine video games as artistic artifacts that do not have set, predetermined, standardized forms until live play is enacted.

Warum haben wir Menschen Musik?&nbsp;Die komplett überarbeitete Neuauflage des erfolgreichen Sachbuchs, jetzt mit zwei neuen Kapiteln zur Musiktherapie und zur Evolution der Musik:&nbsp;Wie entfaltet Musik ihre Wirkung? Was geht dabei in unserem Gehirn vor? Fördert Musik die Intelligenz? Dient sie dem Gruppenzusammenhalt? Teilt Musik Emotionen mit? Macht Musik gesund? Dieses Buch erklärt die zahlreichen Wirkungen von Musik auf Fühlen und Denken, auf die Organisation von Gruppen sowie auf unsere körperliche und geistige Gesundheit. Im ersten Teil des Werkes werden die evolutionären Grundlagen der Musikwahrnehmung und des Musizierens dargestellt. Die faszinierenden neuen Erkenntnisse zu den positiven, aber auch den negativen Auswirkungen intensiven Musizierens auf das Nervensystem werden in den folgenden Kapiteln geschildert. Glücklicherweise macht Musik nur selten krank – viel wichtiger sind die bislang noch gar nicht ausgeschöpften heilenden Potenziale und die große Macht der positiven Emotionen, die durch Musik ausgelöst werden. Mit diesen erfreulichen und zukunftsweisenden Aspekten schließt das Buch, das jeden ansprechen wird, der eine Liebe zur Musik empfindet, sei es als Musizierender oder als Hörer.&nbsp; Der Autor&nbsp;Eckart Altenmüller&nbsp;ist Direktor des Instituts für Musikphysiologie und Musiker-Medizin der Hochschule für Musik, Theater und Medien Hannover. Der mehrfach preisgekrönte forschende und praktizierende Neurologe und Konzertflötist zählt zu den weltweit renommiertesten Forschern im Bereich der Musikermedizin und Neuromusikologie.

Warum der Mensch ohne Musik nicht leben kann

Vom Neandertal in die Philharmonie

Since its founding by Joseph Papp in the 1950s, The Public Theater has been an American artistic leader defined by its breadth of programming, from Hair and A Chorus Line to Free Shakespeare in the Park. With the recent critical and financial success of Fun Home and Hamilton, and its emphasis on new play development, The Public's contemporary history has been equally remarkable, even as world crises and social changes have tested the mettle of its foundation of accessible and "radically inclusive" theater for all. One Public presents the broader organization, its creative methodology, and its enormous growth over the past twenty years. Framed by the tenure and leadership of its current artistic director Oskar Eustis, the book tells the contemporary story, recorded over many interviews with iconic practitioners and performers, ranging from Diane Paulus, Tony Kushner, and Lynn Nottage to Kevin Kline, Chelsea Clinton, and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Case study-driven, One Public uses oral history accounts and authorial experience to illuminate The Public Theater, Eustis, and their cultural influence on the city of New York and the greater United States. The story highlights the successes and challenges of an institution at once espousing a mission of inclusive and community-based arts creation, while also developing Broadway hits and international fame.
