About this product
Product Information
In the first in-depth examination of music written for Hollywood animated cartoons of the 1930s through the 1950s, Daniel Goldmark provides a brilliant account of the enormous creative effort that went into setting cartoons to music and shows how this effort shaped the characters and stories that have become embedded in American culture. Focusing on classical music, opera, and jazz, Goldmark considers the genre and compositional style of cartoons produced by major Hollywood animation studios, including Warner Bros., MGM, Lantz, and the Fleischers. Tunes for 'Toons discusses several well-known cartoons in detail, including What's Opera, Doc?, the 1957 Warner Bros. parody of Wagner and opera that is one of the most popular cartoons ever created. Goldmark pays particular attention to the work of Carl Stalling and Scott Bradley, arguably the two most influential composers of music for theatrical cartoons. Though their musical backgrounds and approaches to scoring differed greatly, Stalling and Bradley together established a unique sound for animated comedies that has not changed in more than seventy years. Using a rich range of sources including cue sheets, scores, informal interviews, and articles from hard-to-find journals, the author evaluates how music works in an animated universe. Reminding readers of the larger context in which films are produced and viewed, this book looks at how studios employed culturally charged music to inspire their stories and explores the degree to which composers integrated stylistic elements of jazz and the classics into their scores.

Title: Museum gets Hotel Kemmerer signage; new Kemmerer book out Author: Little Chicago Review Publisher: Little Chicago Review Date: 6/10/09 The Kemmerer Fossil Country Museum has received the sign from the Hotel Kemmerer and bar on Monday and hopefully, Judy Julian, Director of the Museum and Suzanne Giorgis, volunteer, can have it ready for the museum’s 20th Anniversary this Friday, June 12th. They have run into just small problem, they aren’t sure how the bar goes together. Julian is sending out a plea to anyone who can remember what the back bar looked like to please come in and give them help. Julian has recently published a book about the area Images of America.” The book should be at the museum this week for purchase. In it, the Hotel Kemmerer is featured and the information Julian compiled is as follows: Construction of the Hotel Kemmerer began in 1897, but there were several delays caused by financial problems and the cold winter weather. The hotel was completed and opened for business in August 1898 under the ownership of Robert White. Native stone used to build the hotel was cut from the nearby stone quarry located in Oakley, just south of Kemmerer. The hotel was the first hotel to be built in the community. Shortly after the town of Kemmerer was incorporated and a town council appointed, the first town meeting was held in the hotel on February 28, 1899. The hotel was able to weather economic booms and busts. Livestock and coal production, the foundation of Kemmerer’s economy, provided enough stability for the hotel to survive. This gave her the nickname the Grand Old Lady.”’ For more information on various historical subjects, the museum can give you the instite you are looking for. Julian joins a number of local area authors and is a Kemmerer native.
