Definitive Form

Oliver Knussen's Symphony in One Movement is his latest symphony. It is also his earliest – originally composed as the Concerto for Orchestra in 1969, and premièred by the 17-year old Knussen and the London Symphony Orchestra, with André Previn playing the flamboyant piano part. 33 years later, the piece has finally reached its definitive form, and Knussen conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra in its world première as part of an all-Knussen programme in celebration of his 50th birthday, at the Barbican Hall on 1 November.

This chapter examines the making of Rollerball (1975). It starts with an overview of the cast and crew and the filming locations, principally Munich, West Germany, where Norman Jewison shot the film's game sequences and also utilised other aspects of the city's modernist architecture. For the making of Rollerball, Jewison brought together three of the leading lights of British post-war cinema — production designer John Box, Douglas Slocombe as director of photography, and Julie Harris as costume designer. Acclaimed European conductor André Previn scored the soundtrack, largely comprised of classical music. The chapter then presents a detailed scene-by-scene breakdown of the film, considering the interplay of their various contributions to Rollerball and how this influenced the final look and feel of the film, including how it blended the film's signature violent action with an examination of more sophisticated dystopian social themes.

The Aesthetic

This paper compares the modernist musical-narrative separations of The Dark Mirror (Robert Siodmak, 1946), Dead Ringer (Paul Henreid, 1964), and Sisters (Brian De Palma, 1973) with the postmodernist musical-narrative fusions of the Canadian film Dead Ringers (David Cronenberg, 1988). The two earlier films (starring Olivia de Havilland and Bette Davis, respectively) mainly conform to the aesthetic of film noir or "suspense-thriller," whereas the two later films (starring Margot Kidder and Jeremy Irons, respectively) also contain substantial elements of "horror." The musical scores of these four films (by Dimitri Tiomkin, André Previn, Bernard Herrmann, and Howard Shore) feature, in varying degrees, the meaningful placement and development of leitmotifs and titles music, changes in meaning by altering instrumentation and/or mode, gender representations, and issues of cultural hierarchy and class distinctions.
