The Great Dance, Timothy G. Tollefson

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The Great Dance, an original composition for full orchestra, was inspired by the novel, Perelandra (1944), by C.S. Lewis. A major theme of Lewis's book is the fall of man into sin. The central character, Elwin Ransom, is sent to the planet Perelandra to help the humans there resist falling into temptation like they did on Thulcandra (Earth). Ultimately, Perelandra's Eve does not fall, and the book ends with the angels (eldila) proclaiming long, joyous hymns of praise to God (Maleldil). During this ending scene, Ransom and the two humans of Perelandra are allowed to see through time and the …

Théodore Nisard’S Accompagnement Du Plain-Chant From Dictionnaire Liturgique, Historique Et Théorique De Plain-Chant Et De Musique D’Église Au Moyen Age Dans Les Temps Modernes (1854): An English Translation, Gerald W. Holbrook

Glenn Korff School of Music: Dissertations, Theses, Student Creative Work, and Performances

Joseph Louis d’Ortigue (1802-1866), a music critic in Paris beginning in 1829, succeeded Hector Berlioz as a writer for the Journal des dèbats. He first published writings on opera, but after 1840 because of a fascination with religious music, especially chant, he devoted himself to the study of this genre, eventually undertaking his Dictionnaire Liturgique, Historique et Théorique de Plain-Chant et de Musique d’église au moyen age et dans les temps modernes (1854). For this work he commissioned Théodore Nisard, also known as Abbé Théodule Elzéar Xavier Normand, a Belgian organist and editor, to write a treatise on organ accompaniment …

Mark Adamo: The Solo Vocal Works Through 2006, Scott D. Miller

Glenn Korff School of Music: Dissertations, Theses, Student Creative Work, and Performances

American composer Mark Adamo enjoyed tremendous success with his first two full-scale operatic works, Little Women, and Lysistrata. For both of these works, Adamo served not only as composer, but also as his own librettist. Originally eager to pursue a career as a composer of the Broadway musical, his background and training in playwriting, acting, and musical composition provide him with a unique and well informed perspective on the fundamentals of dramatic and musical form and function which is both simple and ingenious. His gift for setting language to music is extraordinary, and his knowledge of the human …
