| | The Music Box Man |
| | In the disc box, music is implanted on a flat metal disc by perforating its surface in the desired places. | | | The musical pitch of the music box comes from plucking the long teeth for lower tones and short teeth for higher ones, he says, and the loudness of the sound is determined by the width of the teeth. | | | As a young boy, Joseph Schumacher, BE '64M, stumbled upon one of the venerable music machines in his family's attic and was intrigued by both the beauty of the hand-crafted device and its enchanting music. |

| | The Music Man |
| | “The Music Man” comes from a time before those I’ve mentioned were made, 1961 was the beginning of the end of the big Hollywood musical. | | | Somewhat ironically, when Preston was first approached to do “The Music Man” on Broadway, he told the producers he had never sung in a musical before. | | | Yet, as appealing as the characters are, it is the songs that carry the show, and here is where “The Music Man” surpasses its more-recent counterparts. |

| | The Music Man DVD review |
| | Some "Music Man" fans were aghast to learn that Matthew Broderick, that pipsqueak, had been cast as the spellbinding Hill in a TV movie of "The Music Man." Though it was the product of the same executive producers as of the movie "Chicago," people were skeptical. | | | The hell with "1776," "The Music Man" is the most purely American musical ever made. | | | ANY version of "The Music Man" has the power to charm us; the appeal includes nostalgia for a time none of us have seen, but which we all knew was out there in America's past, but it's not limited to nostalgia since the characters themselves are instantly recognizable: they're us. |

| | The Music Man |
| | The show captivates from the opening curtain number, in which the music and lyrics are synchronized precisely with the bouncing and lurching of a steaming train. | | | And Meredith Willson's music was so revolutionary in that he used musical forms so well. | | | He was talking about how "76 Trombones" would be performed by the entire company kind of a cappella because they were thinking about the music, that the band was in their heads the first time that we perform it. |

| | In the past five years, SonicNet has acquired music news services, databases and Internet radio stations; in turn, it has been acquired first by TCI Music and, earlier this year, by MTV. | | | I thought this was the only way you could create a nationally recognized music brand, because the economics wouldn't support a new national cable network or a music magazine. | | | So consumers were getting fewer choices on broadcast media; at the same time the music itself was becoming much more fragmented with electronica and hip-hop and all kinds of rock coming in the aftermath of grunge. |

| | The Music Man was based on Willson's recollections of his own childhood in Mason City, Iowa. | | | While the children can hardly play their instruments, the inner music that Hill and the band bring into the life of the town transforms River City. | | | It lovingly and humorously captured the lost innocence of America at the beginning of the 20th century. |

My prayer of hearing more music is answered as he begins to play, adding an instrument more magnificent than the piano. | | | I want J.C. to come back and play some more, but I guess that a music man needs his rest too. | | | The only light that is showing has a blue hue to it as it spills its rays on the most beautiful black grand piano I've ever seen -- that fits perfectly with the beautiful man that is controlling its power. |
