More Than Pictures: The Emotional Journey Of Mussorgsky’S “Pictures At An Exhibition”, Meredith Laing
More Than Pictures: The Emotional Journey Of Mussorgsky’S “Pictures At An Exhibition”, Meredith Laing
Renée Crown University Honors Thesis Projects - All
A piece of music is so much more than notes on a page. It embodies the historical context in which it was written, the feelings or events which inspired the composer to write it, the message the composer wishes to convey, the way a performer chooses to interpret it, and the impact it has on the audience. Since we know that different performances of one particular piece are often compared to each other as being higher or lower in technical and musical quality, it is clear that not every performance is the same, and that the differences that exist can …
The Beggar's Opera And Its Criminal Law Context, Ian Gallacher
The Beggar's Opera And Its Criminal Law Context, Ian Gallacher
College of Law - Faculty Scholarship
This chapter seeks to take the characters and situations of Gay's The Beggar's Opera and consider how closely the play's portrayal matches the historical record. Although the view offered by the play is a restricted one, the chapter concludes that the picture it offers is as close to historical reality as any other document from the period.

La Petite Piaf: The Development And Performance Of An Original One –Woman Show, Rachel M. Moulton
Renée Crown University Honors Thesis Projects - All
My thesis project was the process of adapting the script and music, rehearsing, performing, and producing an original one-woman show. The production is called “La Petite Piaf” and is based on events in the life of Edith Piaf. I adapted, produced, starred in an original one-woman show. It ran seventy-five minutes without an intermission and consisted of dialogue in English and fifteen songs in French. I portrayed Edith Piaf. I oversaw every element of the production. I was in charge of my marketing, finding a performance space, securing dates, hiring a pianist, stage manager, and run crew, finding a lighting …
The Effects Of Live And Recorded Musical Presentation On Stimulated Behaviors In Individuals With Alzheimer’S Disease, Nicole Mancini
The Effects Of Live And Recorded Musical Presentation On Stimulated Behaviors In Individuals With Alzheimer’S Disease, Nicole Mancini
Renée Crown University Honors Thesis Projects - All
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that affects a person’s memory and cognitive functioning ability. Millions of Americans are currently suffering from this disease and the number will continue to grow as life expectancy increases for the general population. There is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s disease and treatment options are limited. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate new ways to improve the quality of life and care provided for these individuals. Research in music therapy has generated promising results suggesting that music can be an effective intervention when caring for Alzheimer’s patients. The purpose of this study was …
Parallel Dichotomies: Serialism, Folk Song, The University, And Authenticity, David Blake
Parallel Dichotomies: Serialism, Folk Song, The University, And Authenticity, David Blake
Renée Crown University Honors Thesis Projects - All
This thesis seeks to analyze the similarities between the electronic music and serialist movement in art music, and the folk revival, both of which peaked during the late 1950s and early 1960s. Each of these movements contained within them an avant-garde that positioned itself on the university setting to gain cultural terrain to combat what they perceived to be commercialized “kitsch.” The avant-gardes within each culture felt the ideologies they promoted were justified because they were authentic. Electronic music composers and serialists viewed themselves as aligned with the modernist tradition of art music, which promoted the progression of music through …

Recollections From A Life In Music, Louis Krasner
The Courier
On October 28, 1984, Louis Krasner came to Syracuse University in order to speak to the Library Associates at their annual meeting. After a warm introduction by Professor Frank Macomber of the Department of Fine Arts, Mr. Krasner gave his address on the subject of American composers whom he had known and worked with. The following is an abstract of his talk, in which particular emphasis has been given to Roger Sessions.
Unusual Beethoven Items From The Krasner Collection, Donald Seibert
Unusual Beethoven Items From The Krasner Collection, Donald Seibert
The Courier
This article details the musical scores donated as gifts to the Syracuse University Libraries on behalf of violinist and Syracuse Professor Louis Krasner. Some of the scores include first editions of Beethoven scores, but the main collection includes rare chamber music and string adaptations of music popular in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Beethoven himself often protested about these works, claiming pianos are too far away from stringed instruments to be directly adapted.
Foresight And Courage: A Tribute To Louis Krasner, Howard Boatwright
Foresight And Courage: A Tribute To Louis Krasner, Howard Boatwright
The Courier

A Collection Of Italian Opera Libretti In The Syracuse University Libraries, Aubrey S. Garlington Jr.
A Collection Of Italian Opera Libretti In The Syracuse University Libraries, Aubrey S. Garlington Jr.
The Courier
In this article, Aubrey S. Garlington, Jr. explains the historical tension between the composer of the opera and its librettist, arguing that although the adulation of the composer has steadily risen in modern history, there cannot be an opera without a libretto. He also notes that 18th and early 19th century libretti are becoming more important in musicology, and analyzes a collection of Italian libretti that can be found at Syracuse University's Bird Library.
The Sound Of Fame: Syracuse University's Audio Archive And Edison Re-Recording Laboratory, Frank S. Macomber
The Sound Of Fame: Syracuse University's Audio Archive And Edison Re-Recording Laboratory, Frank S. Macomber
The Courier
At first glance the Syracuse University Audio Archive and Edison Rerecording Laboratory looks like an antique shop. Old phonographs, cylinders, posters of a by-gone era are everywhere; there is even a relief of the Victor dog. But there are great differences in action and atmosphere from an antique shop, for at the Archive the "relics" are living machines, and the ancient cylinders are taking on a modern, full-toned life. Here, modern techniques of cleaning, reprocessing and re-recording are giving new sounds for old. Here, the staff is finding ways for the sounds of the past to function as realities in …
The Mayer Wetherill Collection: Music Of The Nineteenth Century, Peter Korff
The Mayer Wetherill Collection: Music Of The Nineteenth Century, Peter Korff
The Courier
The Wetherill collection contains many reductions, adaptations, and arrangements of music by the major figures of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. There are several bound collections of music for piano and violin based on "favorite opera melodies." There are also, of course, many works by the masters themselves. The true worth of this collection, however, is not to be found in anyone rara avis, but rather in the quality of the whole as representative of the chamber music of its time.
The Liechtenstein Music Archive On Microfilm At Syracuse, Don L. Smithers
The Liechtenstein Music Archive On Microfilm At Syracuse, Don L. Smithers
The Courier
Small but significant former church libraries in Poland and Czechoslovakia, often in remote areas, do not normally have the facilities or the technically skilled personnel to provide photographic copies of their unique sources. Music and documents relating to pre-eighteenth-century musical establishments, especially ecclesiastical foundations, are often preserved in such libraries. One of these is located in the small town of Kromerli in Moravia, Czechoslovakia. The unique musical sources in this somewhat remote library are now most felicitously preserved on microfilm at Syracuse University. The films are part of the growing microfilm resources of the University, and, for American scholars, constitute …
