FOR TICKETS CALL CarnegieCharge aco homepage concert schedule Program notes for this concert Essay Paul Chihara went Hollywood (and Carnegie Hall, too) From Scene to Shining Screen: A Short History of Film Music by Paul Chihara Movie music was not born in the movie theaters but in the worlds of opera, musical theater, and vaudeville. Concert music too, particularly the romantic and melodramatic scores of the late nineteenth century, so popular in the early twentieth, provided a large and immediately available library of recognizable and memorable material suitable for film underscoring. Mendelssohn's Fingel's Cave Overture , Wagner's Ride of the Walkurie , Lizst's Les Preludes , Rossini's William Tell Overture , just to mention some very obvious examples of dramatic and descriptive music, were ideal for movie music. When D.W. Griffeth produced his silent Birth of a Nation (1915), he provided a large orchestral score stitched together from classical and popular sources.

Home Page New! 1900 Wo rth of Paris designer gown 1903 couple ca. 1903 ca. 19 06 blouse or 'waist' 00 ladies' boot early 1900s T he period between 1901-1910 is often called the Edwardian Era after Queen Victoria's successor, King Edward VII. Sophisticates and the French also refer to this time as La Belle Epoque, or "Beautiful Age," as there was a definite leaning toward classical aesthetics. It was an era of beautiful clothes and the peak of luxury living for a select few: the very rich and the very privileged through birth. In retrospect we can see it is an era very separate from the 20th century despite belonging at its start. The attitudes and lifestyles of two decades were swept away by war and because the war was so huge in its impact, a new socialism and sense of personal identity was born. The masses started to reject the concept of privilege as the reason for a better life. Clothes worn after 1915 could probably be worn today in certain circumstances, but clothes before then are more in tune with the elaborate clothes of 1770 and would only be seen today at a costumed event or as bridal wear. Paris was the absolute mecca of the fashion world, Picasso was in his blue and pink period, the Wright brothers were making aviation history, and San Francisco was devastated by an earthquake in 1906. Photography reached a heyday and the first narrative film

The four major presidential nominees offered choices unimagined in today's political world. They fought in a more contentious, combative, and violent political culture than today's voters could tolerate. These pages are about those events, and the vision for the future of democracy that they represented."

Hypertext History: Our Online American History Textbook An interactive, multimedia history of the United States from the Revolution to the present. Interactive Timelines The key events that made American History. Guided Readings: The First Americans No aspect of our past is more enshrouded in myth and misconceptions than the history of Native Americans. This chapter examines the rich and diverse cultures of the first Americans and the far-reaching consequences of their encounter with Europeans. Exploration and Discovery The fifteenth and sixteenth century voyages of discovery brought Europe, Africa, and the Americas into direct contact, producing an exchange of foods, animals, and diseases that scholars call the “Columbian Exchange.” Colonization Here, you will learn about the economic, religious, and social developments that led Europeans to colonize new lands; the differences between Spanish, French, and English colonization; and the difficulties they encountered as a result of the varied climates and topographies. The Origins and Nature of New World Slavery Slave labor played an indispensable role in the settlement and development of the New World. This chapter examines slavery in the ancient, medieval, and early modern world; the process of enslavement; the Middle Passage; and the evolution of slavery in colonial, revolutionary, and antebellum America.
