SUMMARY:Leith Stevens' War of the Worlds Online Score Study
DESCRIPTION:Embark on an exploration of Leith Stevens’ remarkable score to the 1953 science fiction classic\, “War of the Worlds.” Despite not being widely recognized now\, Stevens was a towering figure in his day. In the 1930s he worked at CBS radio\, alongside Bernard Herrmann\, before moving on to compose for Hollywood films in the 1940s. He soon became the preferred composer for director George Pal\, crafting the scores for a trio of iconic 1950s sci-fi films: “Destination Moon\,” “When Worlds Collide\,” and “War of the Worlds.” \nStevens’ unique compositional techniques have significantly influenced the musical language of science fiction\, employing devices like stacked fourths and fifths\, melodic leaps of a seventh\, and tritone-related progressions\, which have become associated with the genre’s depiction of space and the extraterrestrial. \nIn 1954\, Stevens was instrumental in establishing the Composers and Lyricists Guild of America\, the forerunner to the current Society for Composers and Lyricists\, leading it as president for eight years. His work in the 1960s expanded into television\, where he collaborated with the then-emerging John Williams on “Lost in Space.” \nOur discussion will delve into the potential compositional links between Stevens and Williams and explore the impact of one of Stevens’ instructors\, the Russian composer and theorist Joseph Schillinger. A relatively enigmatic and underexplored figure\, Schillinger contributed unconventional music theories that possibly inspired a generation of Hollywood composers to experiment and innovate\, shaping the distinctive sound of film music during that era. \nWe will be joined by special guests William H. Rosar and Tom Schneller! Having taught film score analysis in USC’s Scoring for Motion Pictures and Television Program\, William H. Rosar is a musicologist and college lecturer specializing in the history of Hollywood film music. He is also founder and former president of the Film Music Society and editor of The Journal of Film Music. \nTom Schneller is a composer\, music theorist\, and author\, and has taught film music at Cornell University\, Ithaca College\, and Eastman School of Music. \nThis online score study is FREE for all ASA members! Please sign up to be a member here. The Zoom link be sent via email the day before the event. It will also be posted on our website. \nWatch the score study preview with ASA member Josh Lucan!

SUMMARY:Michael Kamen's The Iron Giant Score Study with Chris Siddall
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the first ASA event of 2024\, as we open the pages of Michael Kamen’s masterful 1999 score for The Iron Giant. This animated sci-fi film was based on a novel from 1968 and was brilliantly brought to life by Brad Bird (in his directorial debut) and Michael Kamen (in his first score for an animated movie). Set during the Cold War in 1957\, the film centers on a young boy named Hogarth Hughes\, who discovers and befriends a giant alien robot. With the help of a beatnik artist named Dean McCoppin\, Hogarth attempts to prevent the U.S. military and Kent Mansley\, a paranoid federal agent\, from finding and destroying the Giant.\n\nThe score to this film is published by Chris Siddall Music Publishing (https://www.chrissiddallmusic.com/store/p58/Iron_Giant_In_Full_Score.html) and we encourage ASA members to purchase the score ahead of time in order to enjoy the study. But even if you don’t have the score in hand\, we’ll be showing excerpts from it and\, in true ASA fashion\, breaking it down into its component parts to understand how Kamen got these magical sounds for his score. The movie itself can be streamed with a Paramount Plus Apple TV Channel subscription\, or can be rented or purchased from most major streaming platforms.\n\nThis event is FREE for all ASA members! Sign up for membership here. The Zoom info will be sent out the day before the event.

SUMMARY:Joe Hisaishi's Howl's Moving Castle Online Score Study
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we take a close look at Joe Hisaishi’s remarkable score for “Howl’s Moving Castle.” As the iconic musical voice behind almost every film to come out of Japan’s famed Studio Ghibli\, Hisaishi’s collaboration with legendary filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki has birthed some of the most evocative soundtracks in animated film history. We will be paying close attention to how he constructs unforgettable ear worms as well as his unique blend of classical\, minimalist and Great American Songbook idioms within a film music framework. \nThis is the second part of our in-person event on August 19th. You do not need to have attended to join us online! This event is FREE or our members. We will be sending out the Zoom link the day before the event. Not a member? Join here! \n

SUMMARY:The Music of John Williams with Special Guest Mark Richards
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a detailed exploration of John Williams’ action music with film music scholar and educator\, Mark Richards. Through several decades of study and published research Dr. Richards has uncovered an array of harmonic techniques Williams utilizes for his action writing\, including the employment of more exotic scales such octatonic\, hexatonic\, an Hungarian minor as well as dissonant bass notes and polychords. We’ll discuss how Williams crafts specific action chords from these elements\, tailoring them for varied cinematic needs – be it general action sequences\, moments of emphasis or conveying particular emotional associations. \nFor a hands-on understanding\, our study will concentrate on two particular cues from the original Star Wars trilogy: “Attacking a Star Destroyer” from “The Empire Strikes Back” and the Rancor Pit scene from “Return of the Jedi.” Through Mark Richards’ expert guidance\, attendees will gain invaluable insights into the meticulous crafting of music that has delighted us as filmgoers but frequently puzzled us as composers and analysts. \nThis is a free event for ASA members! Members will be given the Zoom link the day prior to the event. Sign up to become an ASA member here.

SUMMARY:Igor Stravinsky's The Firebird Score Study
DESCRIPTION:The Academy of Scoring Arts is ready to kick off a new long-form study\, looking at one of the greatest musical innovators of the 20th century\, Igor Stravinsky\, and the suite from his 1910 ballet\, The Firebird. Written for Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes company\, it was the first of several momentous collaborations between the two men\, and interestingly\, was before Stravinsky rose to fame. Throughout Stravinsky’s life\, he revised the score to the suite at least three times. The ASA volunteer team is hard at work on a new\, custom engraving of the work\, correcting various mistakes from older editions and readying it for detailed study in signature ASA fashion\, where we’ll have the ability to zoom into specific instruments and solo or mute at will\, enabling us to dissect the orchestration in great detail to understand how Stravinsky’s sound was put together. \nAll ASA members (including our free tier\, Chamber) are welcome to join us for this virtual event for free! This will be the first event in a multi-part study series on the Firebird. Zoom info will be sent the day before the event.

SUMMARY:Jerry Goldsmith's Mulan Score Study
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, March 18 as we examine Jerry Goldsmith’s seven-minute overture to Mulan. Veteran ASA members know that we love taking apart a Goldsmith score\, and this Academy Award nominated score offers a rich treasure trove into the fantasy writing that perfectly marries Disney with Jerry. We’ll play back the score and talk about its composition and orchestration\, and isolate elements so we can learn from the master.\n\nWe encourage attendees to purchase an inexpensive digital copy of the score ahead of time. This score was created by publisher Chris Siddall (https://www.chrissiddallmusic.com/store/c1/Featured_Products.html) and was meticulously engraved from Jerry’s original manuscript. It is available for only $14.99 at SheetMusicPlus here: https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/suite-from-mulan-score-only-digital-sheet-music/22292435 While we will be showing portions of the score during the event\, we always find there is far more to dig into than we have time for\, so we encourage you to get your own full copy and support the efforts of masterful engravers like Chris\, who are constantly bringing new scores to life.

SUMMARY:John Williams' Superman Score Study Part III
DESCRIPTION:Our original Superman event back in November has spawned a trilogy of studies! The symphonic suite from John Williams’s Superman started with the villain theme (Lex Luthor and Otis)\, which consumed our first study\, then the love theme (“Can You Read My Mind”) which occupied our second study\, and now we’re on to the third and final theme\, the big Superman hero theme! Join us on ZOOM Saturday\, February 4 at 10am Pacific. As with our other score study events\, our volunteers have helped us create a MIDI mockup and custom engraving of the score\, so we’ll be able to take it apart and dig into some of the details of the amazing orchestral writing that John Williams is famous for. All ASA members (including our free tier\, Chamber) are welcome to join us for this spellbinding event.

SUMMARY:John Williams' SUPERMAN Score Study Part II
DESCRIPTION:We had a blast dissecting the villain theme at our first Superman score study event\, so much so that we ran out of time! It was an invigorating discussion\, focusing on Williams’ clever use of dissonance and scales to represent the characters of Lex Luthor and Otis. On Saturday\, December 10th\, we’ll continue our exploration of John Williams’ 1978 Superman score. For Part 2 we’ll look at the romantic harmonies and orchestration of the gorgeous love theme.\n\nIf you missed part 1\, it’s now available on our web site (https://scoringarts.com/eventlibrary/john-williamss-superman-suite-part-1/). Make sure to check out the highlight clips there\, and you can also peruse the actual study score we’re looking at (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUtwBc3VrsQ).\n\nPart 2 of the Superman study will be held on Zoom. All ASA members are welcome and will be sent the Zoom URL the day before. It will also be posted to our home page.

SUMMARY:John Williams’ Superman Score Study
DESCRIPTION:On November 5\, we return to the music of John Williams with our first-ever look at one of his most memorable and enduring scores\, Superman (1978). We’ll take apart the symphonic suite and take a close look at the villain theme\, the love theme\, and of course the main hero theme. John Williams has proved himself a master of so many genres within film scoring\, and although this score was written in the same era as Williams’s first Star Wars score (1977)\, it’s stunning to hear a such a contrasting approach to the character of the music. The Superman score has subtle romantic overtones that augment the superhero angles. We’ll look at all of this and much more! \nThis study will take place on Zoom\, and we welcome all our ASA members (Chamber\, Orchestra\, and Philharmonic) to take part. If you’re not yet a member\, sign up on our site. Even our free membership (Chamber) will get you in to this event. The Zoom URL will be mailed to all members the day before the event\, and will also be posted to our home page. Orchestra and Philharmonic members\, of course\, get access to more than 150 other studies that we’ve done\, and we encourage you to check out (https://scoringarts.com/videos). \nAfter our score study\, we’re partnering with the American Youth Orchestra\, who is performing Superman live-to-picture at UCLA’s Royce Hall at 4pm. This performance is their 14th annual Hollywood Project Concert\, and conductor Caros Izcaray will bring the entire score to life live on stage with Los Angeles’s best youth musicians. The Academy of Scoring Arts is grateful to the AYO for extending a special ASA discount to attend the concert. \nTicket link: https://www.aysymphony.org/14-annual-hollywood-project-concert-2022/\nPromo code: AYS4 ($4 off)

SUMMARY:James Horner Aliens Score Study - Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us online on Saturday\, August 27 at 10am PT for our latest score study\, a deep dive into James Horner’s remarkable 1986 score for Aliens.

SUMMARY:THE TWILIGHT ZONE: THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER / THE INVADERS
DESCRIPTION:Study leaders William V. Malpede and Josh Lucan take us on a deep dive into two episodes from the iconic television series THE TWILIGHT ZONE\, each scored by a legend in film music: “Eye of the Beholder” (1960) by Bernard Herrmann and “The Invaders” (1961) by Jerry Goldsmith. We’ll also be joined by Marc Zicree\, veteran television producer and writer\, a member of our Advisory Board\, and the author of The Twilight Zone Companion. \nGoldsmith and Herrmann each wrote numerous episodes of THE TWILIGHT ZONE\, and these two iconic episodes are particular masterclasses in scoring for small orchestral ensembles using minimalistic compositional techniques. \n“The Eye of the Beholder” is a dark and compelling tale about one woman’s desperate desire to conform within a dystopian society. With a surprise twist in the plot\, the episode contains both beauty and a sinister chill from Herrmann’s minimalistic score featuring 2 vibraphones and 2 harps\, backed by brooding and climactic brass and percussion punctuations. \n“The Invaders” is also famous for its twist ending\, and is unique for its complete lack of dialogue. Goldsmith’s music becomes a central player along with actress Agnes Moorehead non-speaking performance. Composing under the budgetary constraints of 60’s television\, Goldsmith’s ensemble consisted of approximately thirteen string players\, piano\, celeste\, harp\, vibraphone\, marimba\, chimes\, and the Novachord. In an early example of his atonal writing technique\, Goldsmith focuses on minor seconds and tritones to convey the horror unfolding on screen. This score also demonstrates Goldsmith’s penchant for using unusual instrument combinations as well as cutting edge electronics to achieve novel timbres in the sci-fi and horror genres.

SUMMARY:Bernard Herrmann Score Study: The Day The Earth Stood Still
DESCRIPTION:The Academy of Scoring Arts is proud to present a score study of Bernard Herrmann’s ground-breaking classic score\, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL.  Partnering\, once again with Christopher North and Rolando Gori from the Ravel NYC Group\, and featuring excerpts from Neumation Music’s recently-released full score publication. William Malpede will lead a deep dive into Herrmann’s 1951 electronic-acoustic hybrid soundtrack\, which features a unique\, never-before-heard combination of brass\, percussion\, electric strings\, theremins\, keyboards\, and backwards multi-tracking. From the notes of Neumation’s publication\, the classic science-fiction drama directed by Robert Wise “offered a potent social commentary about the intensifying Cold War that was born from a climate of fear and repression during the 1950’s.” Mr. Wise is quoted as saying\, “When we got on the music stage and started to record the cues\, I was thrilled. It was beyond anything I had anticipated.” Today’s digital technology in music has certainly taken us well into the future\, but in 1951\, Bernard Herrmann anticipates the era of electronic music\, while at the same time informing the drama with his unique brand of unsettling chromaticism\, motivic unity\, and psychologically-based\, sonic landscapes.\n\nThis study will incorporate the signature ASA score mockups\, where our volunteer teams have prepared separated instrumental recordings of the score\, enabling us to deconstruct the score as we study it and isolate parts to understand the compositional and orchestration techniques of Herrmann.\n\nThe ASA is pleased to partner with Neumation Music for this event\, and will be showing short excerpts of the orchestral score during the study. We encourage all interested attendees to support the composer and publisher by purchasing the book in order to study the score in more detail and to support the publishing of future high-quality film scores.

SUMMARY:John Powell's How to Train Your Dragon Score Study with Tim Rodier
DESCRIPTION:Join us on August 29 at 10am Pacific Time via Zoom for our first look at the music of composer John Powell\, as we tackle his 2010 score for the fantasy film How to Train Your Dragon. John’s action score sensibilities shine through every page of this score and there’s much we’ll learn as we deconstruct the score with our unique mockups and learn how he blended the “Scandinavian Scotland” flavors of the original books into the movie. We’ll learn how he incorporated bagpipes\, dulcimers\, and whistles to portray Viking protagonists. Our special guest will be Tim Rodier of Omni Music Publishing\, who has called this project “one of the finest scores Powell has ever produced.”\n\nDuring the event\, we’ll be taking a close look at two cues in particular. We encourage you to purchase the full orchestral score of How to Train Your Dragon\, which is available from Omni here: https://omnimusicpublishing.com/product/john-powells-how-to-train-your-dragon-full-orchestral-score/\n\nAll members of the Academy of Scoring Arts (Chamber\, Orchestra\, and Philharmonic) are welcome to attend this study\, free of charge.
