Something's Coming - Bernstein
Early musicals were developed in the 1920s
Formed from songs linked by acted scenes
Influences:
Jazz
20th century classical music
West Side Story
Composed in 1957
Based on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
Set in New York
Follows the individuals Tony and Maria who fall in love but both belong to two separate rival gangs
Tony is a Jet
Maria is from the Sharks
This song is Tony's first solo
Instrumentation
For solo tenors accompanied by a band made up of woodwind, brass, percussion and strings
The instruments do well to not overpower the solo singer
Quiet dynamics
Soft timbres
E.g. muted trumpet and pizzicato strings
Homophonic texture
Techniques used in the accompaniment to illustrate the words 'The air is humming'
Strings use harmonics (very high notes
Strings play tremolo
Structure and Melody
Almost entirely syllabic
Based on three main themes:
1) Quiet, syncopated opening theme
2) Loud, strident theme in 2/4
3) Lyrical, slow moving theme
These ideas are alternated a number of times but the repetitions are not exact
Rhythm, Metre and Tempo
Metre changes between 3/4 and 2/4
Sense of excitement and anticipation
Changes of metre, fast tempo and syncopation
The accompaniment is largely made up of an on-beat bass part with off-beat chords
Creates cross rhythms
Conflicting rhythms played simultaneously
Harmony and Tonality
D major
Two contrasting sections in C major
Frequent use of a sharpened fourth and flattened seventh
Tenor's last note is a flattened seventh
Unresolved, gives the feeling of incompletion
Harmony is tonal and jazz-influenced, with frequent 7th chords and other added note chords
Texture
Homophonic
Three main ideas in the accompaniment
1) Repeated riff opening the song
2) Short, mainly syncopated chords
3) Fast, um-cha accompaniment
