Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 12, 2025 is: leitmotif • LYTE-moh-teef • noun A leitmotif is a dominant recurring theme—something (such as a melody, an idea, or a phrase) repeated many times throughout a book, story, opera, etc. // The overcoming of obstacles and a love of theater are the two leitmotifs of her autobiography. See the entry > Examples: “[F. Scott] Fitzgerald considered his year and a half spent on The Vegetable a complete waste, but I disagree, for he followed it with a new novel written with all the economy and tight structure of a successful play—The Great Gatsby. Both The Vegetable and Gatsby shared the theme of the American Dream (first as a spoof for a comedy, finally as the leitmotif of a lyric novel). I don't think there has ever been a more elusive, mysterious, intriguing character than Gatsby. He's pure fiction—and pure Fitzgerald: the hopeful, romantic outsider looking in.” — Charles Scribner III, Scribners: Five Generations in Publishing, 2023 Did you know? The English word leitmotif (or leitmotiv, as it is also spelled) comes from the German Leitmotiv, meaning “leading motive,” and is formed from the verb leiten (“to lead”) and the noun Motiv (“motive”). In its original sense, the word applies to opera music; it was first used by writers interpreting the works of composer Richard Wagner, who was famous for associating a melody with a character or important dramatic element. Leitmotif is still commonly used with reference to music and musical drama but it is now also used more broadly to refer to any recurring theme in the arts—“The Imperial March,” heard in the Star Wars film franchise whenever Darth Vader appears on screen, for example—or in everyday life.

Leitmotif, released in 1999 by Los Gatos, California quartet Dredg, is a concept album exploring themes of identity and time. The album blends elements of alternative rock, progressive rock, nu-metal, and post-hardcore, showcasing the band's skillful versatility, drawing comparison to fellow California bands Tool and Deftones. With its intricate instrumentations and dynamic shifts, Leitmotif takes listeners on an emotive musical journey through its narrative arc. Where the band runs into trouble is in the indulgences, stretching out noisy outros or delayed intros far too long, and ending on an unnecessary jam below their skill set. What looks like an album quickly shrinks to something more like a long EP, missing a few tracks that focused on their talents instead of their experimentation.   Songs In This Episode Intro - Movement I: @45N. 180W 13:15 - Lechium 16:57 - Movement IV: RR 23:40 - Penguins in the Desert 32:13 - Traversing Through the Arctic Cold, We Search for the Spirit of Yuta Outro - Yatahaze   Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.

Born and raised in Germany by a catholic mother and a protestant step-father, the author learned at a young age that her biological father had been a catholic priest. At age 23, alone in an apartment, she declared to God that she wanted to stop believing in Him, but had an unexpected response that changed her life. Following God's Voice in her heart led her to listen to a revelation given to Rev Sun Myung Moon. However, her personal life is not the Leitmotif, but the importance of getting in touch with the inner Voice and developing a very personal and close relationship with our Creator beyond rituals. As human beings we seem to behave like autistic children who are unable to receive our parents' (Creator's) love. The same Voice asked her to write and pass on a message to the reader, even a ‘love letter'.

This week we present another installment of an ongoing series called “Grave Mistakes: They Shoulda Been Huge!!!”. We bring you an in-depth exploration of a band from the early 2000s that straddles the lines of alternative, rock, metal, and prog simultaneously: DREDG!

Kevin had a chance to catch OURS & DREDG on tour together back in 2005, although he screwed the time up and completely missed OURS; but that's beside the point. Robert is completely unaware of them.

Film music began as a solution to a problem. Early film projectors were really loud, therefore something was needed to cover up all the noise.  In addition, silent movies apparently seemed a bit awkward without any musical accompaniment.   Enter, usually, a pianist, who would improvise musical accompaniments to the events on the screen. None other than Dmitri Shostakovich got his first job as a cinema pianist, honing his improvisatory skills, and sometimes receiving cat calls and boos for his fantasy filled musings that tended to stray away from the action on the screen. Music in the silent film era had to help the audience in pointing out important moments to the audience,  enhancing the emotional effects of the story, and most importantly, it had to give a certain musical line to every character, giving to them the emotional depth that the audience couldn't get since they weren't going to hear their voice.  To do this, early film composers turned to the idea of the Leitmotif, an idea developed by the opera composer Richard Wagner. This idea would take hold even once "talkies" took over the screen, with composers such as Max Steiner, Charlie Chaplin, and others setting the stage for a century of brilliant music, by composers like Bernard Herrmann, John Williams, Dmitri Shostakovich, Rachel Portman, Hans Zimmer, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Christopher Willis, and dozens and dozens more. Today on the show we'll talk about this development of film music, and also hear some of the greatest and most recognizable film music ever written. We'll also talk about why film music is sometimes looked down upon in the classical music world, and how we might begin to change that perception. Join us!

Dan Carlin, podcaster, comedian and author of the landmark political podcast, " Enlightenment Now ", returns to the Lexman fold to discuss how he discovered his love of music and how it has shaped his unique perspective on history.

In this episode, we talk very frankly about desire, fantasies and masturbation. Above all we discuss the differences between men and women and how to navigate the dangerous waters that separate us. We discuss our early experiences around ‘solo sex,' finding our parent's Joy of Sex books and, later in life, discovering pornography and how that impacted our relationships with ourselves and our lovers. The strapline or Leitmotif that emerges from this discussion is once again the importance of communication between partners. Being able to talk about masturbatory experiences as well as observing each other as we masturbate can play an important role in keeping interest alive. The reason that we tend to come back to mutual openness and communication so often is that for many older people who have perhaps been together for many years, communication of desire is one of the things that gets lost in the difficulties of just getting through the practicalities of every day life. In particular, the years of childcare, menopause and male midlife crisis mean it is very easy to lose sight of your own desires and to search for their fulfilment in places which can be dangerous for any relationship. Different for men and women, our experiences of how we discover what makes us aroused help to inform our relationships with future partners and engaging with each other in both talking about it as well as acting out our fantasies help to keep those relationships fresh.

First, the guys discuss the possible legacy of the sequel trilogy as it relates to the growing adoration of the prequels from the generation who grew up with Episodes 1-3. Will 7-9 be re-evaluated in a decade? We'll see!

In which we explore TV and other Tropes in writing. A Trope can be defined as a cliche, but it can also be a leitmotif (in the musical sense) or standard devices used in serial dramas. We think it works for any writing, playing to the audience's expectations of the narrative. … Continue...Episode 104 – Tropes and Perspectives

After some exciting new intro music and a short discussion on what a Leitmotif is, Sean and Angie chat about how they take care of themselves and generally keep from passing away in unfortunate exercise accidents.

Hailing from Los Gatos, CA, Dredg began sharpening their aggro-metal sound in the early '90s. Comprised of Gavin Hayes (vocals/guitar), Mark Engles (guitar), Drew Roulette (bass), and Dino Campanella (drums), the group was performing in area clubs before they'd even graduated from high school. Dredg self-released the Orph EP in 1997. The ambitious Leitmotif followed two years late, and it was reissued with the band's 2001 signing to Interscope. El Cielo, Dredg's proper Interscope debut, arrived in autumn 2002, and Deftones producer Terry Date was at the helm for their 2005 effort Catch Without Arms. They released the concert album Live at the Fillmore a year later, followed by Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion in 2009.* JC got a chance to sit down with Drew Roulette to talk about those early days, their time away from the spotlight, and how the pandemic impacted their new music. All of that and much more on this episode of theFIVE10 Podcast! *bio taken from Allmusic.com

Today, we are covering the music and sound of minutes 26-30 of Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi! We get a final look of Luke, Leia sits by the window while exiting hyperspace, Leia slaps and demotes Poe, Admiral Ackbar calls a proximity alert, Snoke's ship tracks the Raddus, Poe gets permission to blow stuff up, Kylo Ren looks angry but conflicted, and the hangar blows up. Guest: Liz Whitaker from Mean Girls Minute. Theme-spotting: Force theme, Kylo Ren theme, Leia theme, Resistance March, Tension.  Soundtrack: "4. The Supremacy" Discussion topics: "Force Theme vs Binary Sunset vs Obi Wan"  Liz's method of writing music to herself is "BUM bum bum bum bum" Suspension chords and the effect they can have on a scene. Water bottle rattle symbolism. Xanthe feels some "Pavane for a Dead Princess" (Maurice Ravel) vibes. What hyperspace sounds like and how we would recreate hyperspace at home. Rundown of sound design highlights. Futuristic beeps and blips. So underrated yet so precise.  How 90's pop divas unknowingly trained our ears to recognize emphatic key changes. The sputtering and corkscrewing sounds of Kylo's ship. An interesting happens in Kylo's theme... Our lay breakdown of the explosion sound moment.  How sound design sparks curiosity. Incongruity and unexpected sound design choices subconsciously challenge our assumptions about the physical space of a given world. (ex. The sound BB-8 makes when bouncing around). Two different interpretations of what Leia's Theme could mean. Consistency note: While leitmotif names are completely up to interpretation, I'm using the names that Frank Lehman uses in his Complete Catalogue of the Musical Themes of Star Wars. I find this resource to be the most careful, objective, well-organized, and up-to-date guide of its kind.   Liz Whitaker is on Twitter @MeanGirlsMinute. Also Instagram @meangirlsminute.

Luke has new theme music, and it's epic! A deep dive into the music heard in minutes 21-25 of Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi. Action: Rey follows Luke around while he does his thing on Ahch-To Island. We see him squirting green milk into his bottle and his mouth straight from the source. He pole vaults across cliffs, spears a very big fish, and hikes up the mountain in a thunderstorm. Finally, Rey follows suspicious Sith whispers to a mysterious, cavernous tree. Luke asks her who she is. Highlights: Luke's music video montage. The harmonic relationship between Luke's themes and Rey's themes. Hints on how to analyze film music. Comparisons of the music vs. cinematography. An attempt at moo-ing.

Master Skywalker throws his lightsaber out the door, porgs jump all over it, Chewbacca breaks into Luke's hut, we see Jedi tchotchkes, and Snoke says mean things to Kylo Ren, who ultimately smashes his ridiculous mask into a smoldering heap. Joining me today is fellow nerd Ralph Apel from Casino Skunk! Episode highlights: How porg sounds were made  The scene with Luke's Force accoutrements The use of tritones... the devil's interval?

In this episode, we cover four prominent musical themes in minutes 6-10 of Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi, including one that didn't make it to the commercial soundtrack. Otherwise, the music in this scene basically follows with the "Main Title and Escape" track on the album. All of these themes will show up again later in The Last Jedi, and most of them are present in all of the sequels as well. Topics: What is a leitmotif? Leitmotifs vs. themes. Piano walkthrough of four leitmotifs. Analysis ideas. Sound design of the resistance bombers, and how that relates to the frequency spectrum. Resource mentioned: Frank Lehman's Complete Catalogue of the Musical Themes of Star Wars, with specific reference to the Thematic Census on pp. 64-5. It's awesome!

Live from the Theatre Basement   Sundays 7:30 pm Live on YouTube Live on Facebook Available wherever you get your podcasts   Tonight's Ten Minute Play Unbirthday Written by Brooke Wonders Directed by Nancy Wonders   January 10, 2021 7:30 pm   Unbirthday Anne loves her partner, Tom, but he doesn't always remember important dates, and when he does remember, he gets her Big Ideas: intangibles like Love at First Sight, Cynicism, or even a nice Leitmotif. Now Anne fears that Tom has forgotten her birthday again.... for him to make it up to her, she deserves the biggest idea of all.   Live from the Theatre Basement Live from the Theatre Basement, the new podcast streaming show from Theatrikos Theatre Company, after being in previews for a few months, officially launched this month.  The weekly show alternates between ten-minute short plays and interviews with Northern Arizona arts leaders.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 9, 2020 is: leitmotif • LYTE-moh-teef • noun 1 : a melodic phrase or figure that accompanies the reappearance of an idea, person, or situation in a music drama 2 : a dominant recurring theme Examples: The overcoming of obstacles and a love of theater are the two leitmotifs of her autobiography. "The panther has been Cartier's leitmotif for more than a century. The first time the Paris-based jewelry company … alluded to the graceful jungle cat was in 1914, when the house created a women's platinum wristwatch with a case that resembled an abstracted version of the elegant animal's spots, in onyx and diamonds." — Nancy Hass, The New York Times, 26 Aug. 2020 Did you know? The English word leitmotif (or leitmotiv, as it is also spelled) comes from the German Leitmotiv, meaning "leading motive," and is formed from the verb leiten ("to lead") and the noun Motiv ("motive"). In its original sense, the word applies to opera music; it was first used by writers interpreting the works of composer Richard Wagner, who was famous for associating a melody with a character or important dramatic element. Leitmotif is still commonly used with reference to music and musical drama but it is now also used more broadly to refer to any recurring theme in the arts or in everyday life.

Thank you for listening to Mystery, Science, Marshall! In this week's episode to end the summer, Marshall is joined once again by his friend David Scheerer for another installment of "Force Friends." In this Star Wars discussion, Marshall and David focus on a vital element of what makes Star Wars wonderful: the music. Both hosts reveal their top five Star Wars musical themes, leitmotifs, or moments as composed by John Williams. Through their long conversation, the two discuss the universal truths and emotions of music, character growth as indicated by leitmotif development, the importance of chorus, and John William's ability to tell grand stories with both large, bombastic statements and subtle, subdued themes. Special shout out to Frank Lehman and his Complete Catalog of the Musical Themes of Star Wars, accessed here: https://franklehman.com/starwars/. All special music used in this episode was composed by John Williams and falls under fair use. We're so excited that you've chosen to listen to this podcast! New episodes will be released each week on Friday afternoons. You can follow Marshall on social media @marshall_films on Instagram, @MarshallFilms1 on Twitter, and MarshallFilm123 on YouTube.

Rickels tracks the career of Walter Benjamin's review-swap friend, psychoanalyst Alexander Mette, who remained in Berlin during the Third Reich. But when Mette tried continuing to pitch work on Dionysus and Apollo it was tossed in 1934. He reworked his language in the Romantic gobbledyspook mode of the Nazi talking heads, publishing studies of contemporary dream books and the Dionysian clown, which between the lines, however, give a record of decisive changes altering psychic reality in record time.In VOICEOVER, film material is recommended for watching while listening to the lecture. ....Beach Blanket Bingo, William Asher (1965) TrailerA free version of the film is not yet available online.

This episode is full of spoilers – not just spoilers about The Force Awakens, but about future Star Wars episodes. Okay – they could be future spoilers. Right now, they’re just our attempts at trying to find the Easter eggs hidden in John Williams’ new score. This may be the nerdiest and most epic episode of Classical Classroom to date. Brett Mitchell, Associate Conductor of the Cleveland Orchestra and Music Director of the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra, is your guide through the music of the latest Star Wars episode. He teaches about John Williams as a composer and about important tools of the compositional trade, and reveals how this new music is tied to Williams’ scores for the original films. Mitchell takes no prisoners, and does not care for Ewoks. Prepare for hyperdrive.   Music for the episode: “Ride of the Valkyries.” From The Ring Cycle, by Richard Wagner. Music from the original motion picture scores for  Star Wars: Episode 1, The Phantom Menace Star Wars: Episode 4, A New Hope  Star Wars: Episode 7, The Force Awakens Audio production by X-Wing pilot Todd “Dameron” Hulslander with lightsaber sounds by Dacia Clay and editing by Mark DiClaudio. Many thanks to Angela “Organa” Mitchell, Randy Davis, and Al Dahlhausen at WCLV for their help with this episode! Like this episode?

2015 concludes with the mind-altering Leitmotif. Defined as "a recurrent theme throughout a musical or literary composition, associated with a particular person, idea, or situation", Leitmotif takes you on a moody aural journey that represents my deeper sound from the past 5 years. This ambitious end to 2015 is released to coincide with New Year's Eve – a nod to the extraordinary days of old when I would DJ in clubs or at house parties on such a memorable holiday evening. So enjoy this mix, on NYE or any quality late night occasion.

So, it would appear that this selector likes a certain set of sounds, rhythms, and time signatures in the 'records' that makes up the sum of a particular ' collection'. These similarities often resonate with a season or spell,such as the fall making way for winter, and during these times it's quite possible to find oneself shifting between hopeless romantic and melancholy optimist. Brown crumpled leaves and crisp clean air pair well with waltzes and suites, breaks and bonus beats like the ones you may hear here by international acts Koop & Cecelia Stalin, Kyoto Jazz Massive & Nicola Conte, or perhaps PPP,Moonchild, The Roots and Atlanta's Dangerfeel Newbies plus Justin C. Gilbert. There are also some Acid Jazzy Soulful gems in the form of Laurnea(produced by Omar from the UK), and turntablism from Jazzy Jeff appearing with Nuyorican Soul. The first Holidaze mix was recorded five years ago and while the apparent leitmotif in this case are the recurring artists in the episodes, the not so obvious one is the warm fuzzy feeling which invokes warm beverages, fireplaces and closeness with loved ones. With that, Namaste and Uangaze...enjoy!

In this thesis we study the low-energy effective dynamics emerging from a class of F-theory compactifications in four and six dimensions. We also investigate six-dimensional supersymmetric quantum field theories with self-dual tensors, motivated by the problem of describing the long-wavelength regime of a stack of M5-branes in M-theory. These setups share interesting common features. They both constitute examples of intrinsically non-perturbative physics. On the one hand, in the context of F-theory the non-perturbative character is encoded in the geometric formulation of this class of string vacua, which allows the complexified string coupling to vary in space. On the other hand, the dynamics of a stack of multiple M5-branes flows in the infrared to a novel kind of superconformal field theories in six dimensions - commonly referred to as (2,0) theories - that are expected to possess no perturbative weakly coupled regime and have resisted a complete understanding so far. In particular, no Lagrangian description is known for these models. The strategy we employ to address these two problems is also analogous. A recurring Leitmotif of our work is a transdimensional treatment of the system under examination: in order to extract information about dynamics in $d$ dimensions we consider a (d-1)-dimensional setup. As far as F-theory compactifications are concerned, this is a consequence of the duality between M-theory and F-theory, which constitutes our main tool in the derivation of the effective action of F-theory compactifications. We apply it to six-dimensional F-theory vacua, obtained by taking the internal space to be an elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefold, but we also employ it to explore a novel kind of F-theory constructions in four dimensions based on manifolds with Spin(7) holonomy. With reference to six-dimensional (2,0) theories, the transdimensional character of our approach relies in the idea of studying these theories in five dimensions. Indeed, we propose a Lagrangian that is formulated in five dimensions but has the potential to capture the six-dimensional interactions of (2,0) theories. This investigation leads us to explore in closer detail the relation between physics in five and in six dimensions. One of the outcomes of our exploration is a general result for one-loop corrections to Chern-Simons couplings in five dimensions.

We've thrown this term around a lot in our podcast series.  It's time to define it and listen to some worthy examples from the operas of Richard Wagner.  It is summer, after all, with Ring festivals going on throughout the world!
