Content of the Module:
1. Impressionism in Music
2. Expressionism in Music
3. Avant-garde, Chance, and Electronic Music

1. Impressionism in Music

Impressionism-it all started in


the world of painting. Then it’s
enduring influence sweeped through
the world of music which resulted in
pieces that evoked mood, feeling,
atmosphere, or scene.

The 20th century is a period of many changes and a time of great expansion and
development. It was dominated by a chain of events that showed significant changes in
world history which included two global wars: World War I and World War II.

In music, advancement in technology during the 20 th century brought dramatic


innovations in forms and styles of music. A large number of music was composed and
became widely accessible to people through expanded channels of publication, recording,
concert performance, and educational resources. Because music was not confined in
concerts, theaters, and clubs, the artists and their music easily gained recognition and
popularity worldwide.

Music in this century brought new freedom and wide experimentation with new
musical style and forms. These musical styles were derived from developments of painting,
some were a continuation of earlier stylistic concepts, and others were musical concepts.

1
The most famous scene in music history was the ballet of Igor Stravinsky’s The Rite
of Spring which nearly caused a riot among its audiences during its premiere in May 29,
1913 in Paris. Some conservative musicians and audiences during that time considered his
work as noise. It is now, however, highly recognized and commonly heard in jazz, rock, and
musical themes for movies and television.

IMPRESSIONISM is a French movement developed in the late 19 th and early 20th


century. This movement was derived from Claude Monet’s painting entitled Impression,
Sunrise in 1872. This style, borrowed from painting, tries to capture an immediate
impression of a subject with the use of light and color. In music, Impressionism was started
by Debussy in reaction to the dramatic emotionalism of romantic music.

IMPRESSIONIST COMPOSERS

1. Claude Debussy

Achille-Claude Debussy is one of the most highly


regarded French composer, founder, and the leading
exponent. His composition is distinctive and appealing
with combination of modernism, sensuality, and
technical innovation and is almost improvised that is,
sounds free and spontaneous. He also introduced the
whole tone scale that made his composition more
interesting.

Debussy was born from a poor family in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France on


August 22, 1862. At age seven, he started taking piano lessons, and at 11, he entered the
Paris Conservatory where he encountered Tchaikovsky’s wealthy patroness who employed
him as music teacher of her children.

At age 22, he won the Prix de Rome for his cantata L’Enfant Prodigue in 1884
and the prize allowed him to further study in the Italian capital for two years.

During his remaining years, Debussy spent his time in writing as a critic,
composing and performing his own works internationally. He died on March 25, 1918 of
colon cancer at the age of 55 in Paris, France.

2. Maurice Ravel

Joseph-Maurice Ravel was born in Ciboure, France


on March 7, 1875, to a Basque mother and Swiss
father. In 1889, at age 14, he entered Paris
Conservatory and enrolled as a pianist but later
shifted to composition under Gabriel Faure and
Andre Gedalge.

Ravel composed some of his known works during


this period such as the Pavane for a Dead Princess, the

2
Sonatine for Piano, and String Quartet. He was noted for musical craftsmanship and
perfection of form and style in his works. Ravel’s compositional style is characterized
mainly by its uniquely innovative but not atonal style of harmonic treatment. Most of his
works deal with water in its flowing or stormy moods as well as with human
characterizations.

Some of his notable compositions include: Pavane for a Dead Princess (1899), a slow
but lyrical requiem; Jes d’Eau or Water Fountains (1901); String Quartet in F Major (1903);
Sonatine for Piano (1904); Miroirs or Mirrors (1905), a suite for solo piano; Gaspard de la Nuit
or Demons of the Night (1908), a virtuoso piano work in three movements inspired by a
poem that has a demonic and frightening nature.

In 1932, he was involved in a car accident that severely threatened his health.
During the last five years of his life, Ravel suffered from aphasia where he experienced
difficulties in speaking, listening, reading, and writing. In 1937, he had a brain surgery but
the operation was unsuccessful. On December 28 of the same year, Ravel died.

2. Expressionism in Music

Expressionism is an art movement that began in Germany during the 20 th century.


The term Expressionism was originally borrowed from painting which intended to express
strong emotion such as anxiety, anger, and feeling of isolation. In music, it is characterized
by subjectivity, dissonance, and atonality. It made use of polytonality, and the twelve-tone
scale which was established by Arnold Schoenberg, the central figure of expressionism and
one of the members of the Second Viennese School. Schoenberg’s students Anton Webern
and Alban Berg are also known expressionist composers.

EXPRESSIONIST COMPOSERS

1. Arnold Schoenberg

Arnold Schoenberg was


th
the early 20 century. He created a new method in
composition using the twelve-tone system. He was a
self-taught musician, who was born in Vienna,
Austria on September 13, 1874. He began to
compose simple pieces for the violins at age eight
even without a formal training.

In 1901, Schoenber
Uberbrettl, an artistic cabaret in Germany. With the
help of a German composer, Richard Strauss, he
became a composition teacher at the Stern
Conservatory.

In 1902, he composed Pelleas und Melisande Op. 5, his only symphonic poem for
large orchestra. In 1903, Schoenberg came back to Vienna and became acquainted with
Gustav Mahler, an Austrian composer who became one of his strongest supporters. He
encountered an artistic crisis in 1912 and for almost a decade he had not completed a new
major piece.

During those years, Schoenberg earned money mainly from private teaching and
some of his students who gained a notable career in music were the Austrian composers
Alban Berg and Anton Webern. When the Nazis came to power in 1933, Schoenberg left
Europe and migrated in America where he spent most of his life.

Schoenberg developed a more systematic method of organizing atonal music or the


twelve-tone system. He manipulated the tone row or the unifying idea through four basic
forms.

UNIT 1: Modernity in Art


Content of the Module:
1. Rendering the Natural World in New Ways
2. Towards Symbolism
3. Searching for Pure Forms
4. The Dance of Pure Forms

1. Rendering the Natural World in New Ways

Artists in the second half of the 19 th century were exploring new ways of figuration.
Some retreated to the French countryside, in a place called Barbizon. The countryside
allowed them to see picturesque views of landscape and waters. Artists were also veering
away from painting grand historical themes and allegories of 19 th century values like
freedom, liberty, and equality.

Artists were looking for new ways to represent the world. Thus, a movement known
as Impressionism rose at the close of the 19 th century, lasting through the early 20 th
century. Modern Art begins with the story of the Impressionists in Europe. Later, artists
inspired by the Impressionists sought new ways of innovation and individual uniqueness.
The Post-Impressionists took a more subjective approach to art, further departing from a
realistic modes of representing the natural world.

Impressionism
Claude Monet exhibited a landscape with impasto strokes. He was so in love with the
countryside of his native Normandy, France, and sought to represent reality using
approaches that were quite new at that time. Monet then studied the effect of natural light
on landscapes at different times of day and realized that they tend to change depending on
the time of day and the color of light produced during this particular time of day.

In a painting that he exhibited in 1874, the orange sunrise can barely be delineated
beneath layers of blue and gray hues. A critic dismissed this as mere impressions-not a
legitimate work of art. Monet and a group of painters displayed their works in an
independent exhibition that they fondly called The Salon of the Refused, in reference to the
rigid academies of the art that sponsored exhibition in salons.

20
In 1890, Monet arranged the wheat stacks left over by the winter in his countryside
home. He painted them at different times of day until summer came. Once he has
committed the image to his memory, Monet then worked inside the studio to apply the
finishing touches. Color harmonies created visual interest in the painting-tinges of pink in
the sky, nuanced blue for the wheatstacks’ shadow, highlights of white to represent
glimmering light on wheat stacks. His brush strokes were thick enough so that the pigment
was raised a bit from the surface.

In contrast, Edgar Degas went to the Royal Paris Opera House to observe the dancers
from the audience row and as a backstage visitor. In the 1870s, Degas’ canvases were filled
with dancers rehearsing. Degas was interested in the spontaneity of body language and
gestures, the fleeting choreographies on stage and in the rehearsal dance floor, the
luminosity of light on translucent ballerina tutus.

Degas painted Le Class de Danse or The Dance Class from 1871-1874. A ballerina
executes a dance form to demonstrate her virtuosity while around 24 women stand by to
watch. A famous choreographer, Jules Perrot, is depicted in the painting. The painting
reveals Dega’s unique vantage point. The lines of perspective converge diagonally, so that
the gradation of emphasis occurs along a diagonal line.

Meanwhile, Auguste Renoir observed people in cafes, streets, and bars. He painted
Les Parapluies or The Umbrellas in 1880-1881. The painting is characterized by a dark and
somber color palette of grays and indigos. The painting shows a busy Parisian street in
which the crowds of people are walking under the rain. A mother is seen gazing at her
daughter. Together, mother and daughter partly conceal a woman at the center of the
frame, closing her umbrella.

The Post-impressionists
Vincent Van Gogh is a self-taught Dutch artist from Antwerp. He went to France and
got acquainted with the French avant-garde artists such as Pissarro, Georges Seurat, Henri
Toulouse Lautrec, and Emile Bernard. He was inspired by the unnatural color palette and
impaso brush strokes of the Impressionists. He saw that some of them were inspired by
Japanese print-making in the sense that they chose to render the picture plane flat and
make the forms clearly delineated.

Vincent Van Gogh saw art not as a copy of nature but a departure from nature. He
retreated to the countryside because he wanted to live close to nature. Van Gogh made the
painting, Iries, during the latter years of his life. His brother Theo submitted the work to an
independent salon.

Some artists like Georges Seurat applied dabs of primary colors and allowed them to
be optically combined by the viewer’s eye at a certain distance. Critics saw this as a
scientific approach. In the paintings, figures are almost unrecognizable except for the
shapes and contours that vaguely resembled silhouettes of the human form.

Paul Gaugin depicted local flora and fauna and people from Tahiti. Back, then,
cultures that were non-European and non-American were considered backward and
primitive. Artists found this idea interesting and sought to depict images that they
21
considered exotic. Note though that the terms backward, primitive, and exotic have long
been disavowed and are considered racist by today’s standards.

Henri Matisse and a group of artists exhibited in a salon in 1905. Their paintings
were characterized by vivid colors that had no regard for the subject’s actual colors. The
representation of space do not approximate the natural world and the images instead
lacked spatial depth. They called themselves the Fauves, literally translated as “wild beats”.
His painting Harmony in Red or Red Room shows the interiors of household.

The important terms that can help you better understand this lesson.

Spatial depth Illusion that the space on canvas is three dimensional and
has depth extending from foreground to background
Luminosity Perception of light on painting due to amount of brightness
Compositional variety Use of different elements and principles of art to create
variety
Asymmetrical composition One part carries heavier visual weight than the other

2. Towards Symbolism
Symbolism was a modernist movement that emerged in the early 20 th century. The
term was used initially in poetry and painting. The poet Charles Baudelaire, in his poem,
“Correspondences” writes: “Man passes through this forest of symbols.”

22
Several artistic styles are associated with symbolism since it is more of a creative
strategy than a singular style. The movement was considered by the art historian Robert
Williams as absolute art because of artist’s refusal to be confined to the limits of the
natural world. Instead of copying nature, the artist must rely on his imagination and render
the world subjectively. An artist may also respond to the world by expressing emotions and
ideas that arise from his or her intuition.

Expressionism and New Objectivism


One of the artistic styles that leaned towards symbolism is Expressionism. Edvard
Munch made a painting called The Scream in 1893. Using oil, tempera, pastel, and crayon,
Munch depicted an agonized expression of a human-like figure. The figure appears
distorted and the scream is set against a backdrop of orange skies. Munch called this
painting by its German title, translated as The Scream of Nature. It became iconic of
Expressionism in Europe.
The style called Expressionism emerged in Germany at the beginning of the 20 th
century, used by an obscure writer describing a work. Artists described as Expressionists
are known for distorting shapes and using unnatural colors to make the representation of
the world entirely subjective. Expressionism was considered cutting edge or avant-garde
before the First World War. The Weimar Republic ruled during this time and the center of
power was Berlin.
Max Beckmann (1884-1950) was a German painter, draftsma, printmaker, sculptor,
and writer. In the 1920s, he was associated with the Expressionists although he referred to
his works as New Objectivity. The Weimar Republic recognized Beckmann. He received
several accolades and launched exhibitions. His works were well received in museums in
Berlin and other German cultural centers.
Beckmann’s work, entitled Die Nacht (1918-19) show the terror of one night. Three
men have invaded a small house. The man of the household was hung and tortured by the
intruders. His arm was violently twisted. The woman of the house was bound to one of the
posts of the room after having been violated.

Surrealism
The word “surrealist” was used by a playwright named Guillaume Apollinaire. He
wrote a preface to his 1903 play performed in 1917. His scenic backdrops and set designs
were considered dream-like and irrational. It is from the use of this term that artists
converged around a movement called Surrealism.
In the field of the sciences and academic circles, Sigmund Freud’s theory of the
unconscious gained momentum. Andre Breton, a writer who worked in a neurological
hospital, observed the experiments on soldier suffering from post-traumatic stress from the
war. He became one of the leading figures of Surrealism and published an essay in 1928.
Salvador Dali painted The Persistence of Memory, a barren landscape with distorted shapes
that appear like melting clocks. The painting alludes to the tentativeness of memory and
the elusiveness of rationality.
Giorgio de Chirico was one of the artists allied with the Surrealists. La Rouge or The
Red Tower shows a dream-like barren landscape with a massive tower arising out of
nowhere. There are no human figures in the scene. The quiet and barren vastness appear
desolate and the tower appears mysterious.

Influences in the Philippine Context


23
In the Philippine context, the Crucifixion series of National Artist “Ang Kiukok”
underscores pain and suffering. In his paintings, the corpus of Christ and the cross are
often distorted and the figures unnaturally colored. Onib Olmedo’s paintings of protest
against social inequities often show distorted human figures. The stylistic characteristics of
their works are similar to those of the Expressionists. These artists were associated with
the Neorealist movement in the Philippines.
The movement does not prefer a single style but is a broad term used for artists
exploring new ways of figuration. Their works were initially seen in a series of exhibitions
hosted by the Philippine Art Gallery in the 1960s. Meanwhile, some of the painters who
have deployed surrealist imagery in their works include Charlie Co, Rishab Tibon, Mariano
Ching and many more. It must be noted however that Filipino artists do not associate
themselves with European Expressionism and Surrealism.

The important terms that can help you better understand this lesson.

Empirical truth Exact conformity as learned by observation or experiment;


truth as knowable from what can be scientifically proven.
Objectivity Knowledge arising from tangible, visible, stable in form,
external to the mind; from Latin objects which means to
see.
Absolute art Art does not defer to the natural world and arises from
artist’s imagination
Unconscious The part of the mind that is only rarely accessible to
awareness but that has a pronounced influenced on
behavior.

3. Searching for Pure Forms


In the early 20th century, several artists sought freedom from the necessity to depict
realistic landscapes, objects, and people as practiced in the academies of fine art and as
preferred in exhibitions at the salons. Artists then sought for pure forms. One of the two
stylistic tendencies in this lesson include the reduction of a figure into a cone, sphere, and

24
cube. Another stylistic tendency is the use of geometric and biomorphic shapes as a way to
take away a viewer’s sense of familiarity with the object of perception.

Abstract Sculpture
Constantin Brancusi redefined sculpture. He was born in Romania but he moved to
Paris after 1904. Brancusi tried to develop an approach that broke free from the realistic
rendering of forms, as seen in the Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassical periods in
European art.
Brancusi chose to render figures symbolically. Only a few elements of the
composition refer to the subject. In The Kiss, the male and female figures are suggested by
the differences in figuration. The tall block of stone has been symmetrically divided in two
inter-related figures. The woman is depicted as having a rounded breast and long falling
hair.
Brancusi carved anthropomorphic or human-like forms in stone as a departure from
a well-known iconographical representation from Dante’s Inferno, in which Francesca and
Paolo were cast in the gates of hell because of their adulterous relationship. Sculptors like
Auguste Rodin have also rendered his own version of The Kiss but the human figures are
more realistic in representation. Brancusi’s sculpture bears no reference at all to Dante’s
Inferno.
Henry Moore was a British sculptor. He took his inspiration from non-Western art.
His sculptures typically show biomorphic forms with no reference to allergy, person, object,
or historical event. He did not render figures for symbolic purposes and delights in the
material properties of the work and its pure formal elements. He chose to work directly on
his materials so that the end-result is not pre-conceived.

Cubism

Georges Braque experimented with geometrical shapes and simultaneous perspective


in his paintings. He studied the effects of light to actual geometric shapes and rendered
these through variations in tint, tone, and shade. He began experimenting with Cubism in
1908 and worked closely with Pablo Picasso in 1909. They painted side by side in 1911 in
the French Pyrenees. They also experimented with collage in 1912.

The term “cubism” emerged in 1911 when critics referred to artists then exhibiting at
the Salon des Independants. Cubism became a byword in Paris and Europe. Braque
retreated to Normandy in 1916 and worked alone. He made sure that a human figure
surfaced and titled the painting as Blue Guitar. For Braque, an artist experiences beauty in
terms of pure formal elements.

Pablo Picasso continued to develop his own unique style. Patrons were always hungry
for the new and the cutting edge. Art galleries were always looking for innovation. Pablo
Picasso was a Spaniard who moved to Paris and entrenched himself in the avant-garde
scene. Art historians have classified his works according to the dominant color palette at
certain periods in his artistic growth and personal turmoils.

De Stijl

Artists have sought to further abstract forms by using pure colors and shapes. Pieter
Cornelis or Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) is a Dutch painter from The Netherlands who
studied at the Academy of Fine Art in Amsterdam. He encountered the Cubists in an

25
exhibit in Amsterdam In 1911. He then moved to Paris and engaged in experiments with
Cubism as he interacted with artists from the Parisian avant-garde.

Mondrian is associated with a movement known as De Stijl. Mondrian refers to his


personal approach to art as neo-plasticism, or the search for new ways of manipulating
forms and materials. Neoplasticism reduces an artwork to the simplest and most abstract
forms using straight lines and primary colors, often relying on their interrelationships.

His painting called Victory Boogie Woogie (1942-1943) is a later work housed at the
Museum of Modern Art. The work is composed of rectilinear shapes. It is a though squares
of pure vivid colors pop out from the canvas. From afar, they look like brilliant lights on a
busy district.

Influences in Philippine Context

The sculpture of National Artists Napoleon Abueva and Arturo Luz are abstracted,
such that they reveal the search for pure geometric and biomorphic forms. Some of the
Philippine abstract painters include National Artist Hernando Ocampo, known for his
biomorphic forms rendered on painting. Lao Lianben became well-recognized in the late
1980s, producing canvases that seem to allow the viewer to meditate on pure visual
properties such as color and texture.

The important terms that can help you better understand this lesson.

Biomorphic Having the form of a living organism


Symbolic To stand for something other than the objective reality
Neoplasticism New ways of exploring the medium of painting or sculpture
Iconographic Symbolic representation arrived at by convention

4. The Dance of Pure Forms


The term Abstract Expressionism had been first used in Germany in 1919 in the
magazine, Der Sturm, regarding German Expressionism. In the United States, the critic and
curator Alfred Barr was the first use this term in 1929 in relation to works by Wassily
Kandinsky. Wassilyevich was born in Moscow Russia.
Kandinsky studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, Germany and returned to
Moscow in 1914 after the outbreak of the first World War. He returned to Germany in 1921
and taught at the Bauhaus school of art and architecture until the Nazis closed the school
in 1933.

26
The Nazi raided the school and confiscated three paintings that Kandinsky labeled as
Compositions. They were exhibited in the Entartete Kunst and Kandinsky was humiliated
along with other modern artists.
Kandinsky was one of the leading proponents of Abstract Expressionism, the first to
innovate in painting using gestural strokes. The links to abstract is owed to the fact that
Kandinsky relied on the interrelationships of pure significant forms. The links to
Expressionism is owed to the fact that Kandinsky considered the spiritual desire for inner
necessity as a central aspect of his art.
Kandinsky’s paintings show the harmony of contrasting hues. One may find the
warmth of yellow or red against the coldness of blue or indigo. Active and passive colors
make the composition dynamic. Kandinsky finds the line and the point as important, often
appraising their subjective effects on the viewer.
Curvilinear lines and fleeting angular lines are seen in his compositions, as though
dancing in the picture plane. Kandinsky’s paintings are sensorial. He considered music as
the ultimate teacher and, thus, Kandinsky embarked on the first seven of his ten
compositions.
In 1936, Jackson Pollock was introduced to the use of liquid paint in the workshop of
David Alfaro Siquieros, a Mexican muralist. In addition, Pollock observed American Indian
sand painting demonstrations in the 1940s. At that time, he was having a dilemma on how
best to make his art unique so that his career in the art market will grow. The American
economy was booming and the surplus income allowed people with buying capacity to
purchase art.
Pollock began experiments with synthetic resin-based paints called alkyd enamels.
Using hardened sticks, brushes, and syringes as paint applicators, he dripped and poured
paint on a canvas laid out flat on the floor. He used the force of his whole body to move
around the canvas on the floor and with his gestures, he would flick, pour, and drip strokes
of viscous paint on the painting surface.

Influence in the Philippine Context


The works of Jose Joya and Fernando Zobel show the stylistic tendencies of Abstract
Expressionism. The pigments in their canvases are applied in gestural strokes. Joya’s
works are often large scale and show the harmony of colors applied in thick impasto
strokes. Fernando Zobel uses a syringe and applies paint on canvas, allowing the
spontaneity of such gesture to determine the outcome of the work.

UNIT 2: Combined Arts in Time, Space, and
Screens
Content of the Module:
1. Cinema
2. Musical Theater

1. Cinema
The dawn of the 20th century was the birth of cinema. A period characterized by rapid
industrialization and circulation of ideas. The 20th century was also marked by the
brutalities of World War I and II and the post-war anxieties that followed.

Cinema and Modernity


Critics initially had a hard time accepting film as art because photography was
relegated to documentation. They assumed that the basic properties of film were identical
with photography-the capacity to record an actuality or real occurrences in daily living.
Similar to photography, cinema represents the natural world by capturing images through
the cameras lens.
Different from photography, the images are meant to be projected instead of being
printed in a two-dimensional surface. Unlike photography, cinema has the technical
possibility of movement. Unlike video art, cinema tries to propose a world inside the film or
a diegetic world to allow a narrative to unfold. While video art primarily tries to represent
time when it was first introduced, cinema tries to represent a plot or a series of ideas in
sequence and setting.

The philosopher Noell Caroll defines film as follows:

1. Film is a detached display or a series


2. Film belongs to the class of things from which the production of the impression of
movement is technically possible.
3. The screening of films do not make them art by themselves.
4. The platform for screening or the technology-based applications do not make them
art by themselves.
5. Film is a two-dimensional array.

Some of the early films that were called actualities were the short films made by the
Lumiere Brothers on the cinematographe: card players on a leisurely afternoon; a baby
being fed by parents; workers disembarking from a train; a train arriving at the station.

Georges Melies created An Impossible Voyage (1904) to tell a story about experiments
on the first locomotive train that flew across treacherous terrains, fell off a precipice, shot
up to the moon, and fell back on earth. Melies utilized theatrical techniques in stage
design.
From the essay “What is Cinema” by Andre Bazin, appeared in 1950, he proposed
that the director Orson Welles challenged the editing conventions of his time with the depth
shot, so that film is forever distinct from the mere copy of reality. The shot portraying depth
in deep focus photography has effects on the spectators engagement with film as spectacle.

28
Cinema has several elements: narrative, mis-en-scene, cinematography, sound and
editing. These elements have aspects and principles that make cinema as an art from
unique and distinct from either photography or theater.

1. Narrative – Narration can be subjective or objective and restricted or unrestricted


in terms of the flow of information.

2. Mise-en-scene – The setting is indicated by the props, costumes and make-up, and
the design of the set. The set can also be an actual existing location configured for the
setting.

3. Cinematography – Many of the techniques in cinematography are those learned in


photography.

4. Sound – Sound can affect the rhythm. Sound can also shape one’s perception of
fidelities or how close the sound is to actual sound.

Philippine Context
Cinema has always been continental in roots; it has always been international.
Cinema was introduced in the Philippines at a time when entrepreneurs and scientist were
starting to experiment with medium. Cinema is often thought of as the national pastime
due to the scale of distribution and dissemination of content.

Jose Nepomuceno acquired equipment from Edward Meyer, an American who


sympathized with Filipinos. Nepomuceno had a string of productions as he set up Malayan
Movies in 1917. His landmark film, Dalagang Bukid (1919) capitalized on Honorata Dela
Rama’s fame as sa zarzuela star.

This era also marked the rise of the studios such as Sampaguita Pictures established
in 1937 and LVN Pictures in 1938. These studios were run by families who engaged in
friendly competition as rivals. LVN specialized in big-budget productions of epics such as
Ibong Adarna (1955), Lapu-lapu (1959), Badjao (1956), and two Rosa Rosal stares Anak
Dalita (1957) and Biyaya ng Lupa (1959).

The mid-1970s films include social realist films such as Insiang (1976), Maynila sa
Kuko ng Liwanag (1975), Jaguar (1979), Bona (1980), Bayan Ko (1984). Some of the films
made during this time criticized the brutalities of the regime of Ferdinand Marcos, the
dictator who declared Martial Law and caused the deaths and disappearances of many
artists, intellectuals, and laborers.

The 1980s, a time of post-Martial Law, the filmmakers had a greater degree of
freedom and could now freely express their dissenting opinion about society. This did not
obscure the fact that there were still abuses from paramilitary groups who took advantage
of the process of renewal crucial at this time.

In the contemporary period, filmmakers are exploring issues such as identity politics,
environmental deterioration, and the preservation of local traditions.

Essay:
1. What makes one an indie or mainstream filmmaker? Are these distinctions still relevant
today?
2. Does film have to be socially engaged? Why or Why not?

2. Musical Theater
Musical Theater and Modernity
The print in the unit introduction was created to show the extravagance, leisure
capability, and highly evolved tastes of the tail end of the 19 th century, leading to the new
century.

Musical Theater is a form of theatrical performance. Typically. It integrates songs


and dances, spoken and sung dialogue on top of the components of theater such as
direction, libretto, set design, and acting. Distinct from opera, musical theater at the dawn
of modernity gives importance to all the elements and does not privilege music alone.
Musicals emerged in entertainment venues at a time of intensified wealth creation and the
patronage of the growing middle class.
Many structural elements were established by the works of Gilbert and Sullivan in
Britain and those of Harrigan and Hart in America. Some of the most esteemed musicals
include West Side Story (1957), The Fantasticks (1960), Hair (1967), A Chorus Line (1975),
Les Miserables (1985), The Phantom of the Opera (1986), Rent (1996), The Producers (2001),
Wicked (2003), and Hamilton (2015).
Les Miserables follows the story of ex-convict Jean Valjean whose life changed when a
priest shows him kindness after he steals bread. He pays it forward by showing kindness to
Fantine, a prostitute.

The elements of a musical are the following:


1. Libretto – music and lyrics of sung dialogue including the musical arrangement;
spoken dialogue.

30
2. Performance – gestures, body language, and facial expressions of actors; includes
choreography of dance numbers and stylized movements.
3. Set design – constructed sets, props, and costume and makeup of actors.
4. Lighting design – choosing the appropriate direction, color, and quality of light.
5. Sound design – designing the sound environment of the musical
6. Directing – putting it all together in the scene; blocking human and non-animate
figures in the stage.

Philippine Context
Repertory Philippines often stages musicals from the United States and United
Kingdom. Some of the performances they have staged include West Side Story and The Man
from La Mancha. The musicals of the Repertory Philippines are staged in a proscenium
stage, complete with an orchestra.
PETA or the Philippine Educational Theater Association creates original musicals for
the stage. One of the most memorable performances is not an adaptation of La Mancha.
Instead, the story has been completely transformed and only a few elements of the original
were retained. The costumes are reminiscent of anime avatars and the names of the
characters sound like gaming and chat handles that social media users use to log in.
The musical uses projections of videos in the black box arena theater. Aside from
psychologically realist plays, PETA is also known for musicals that engage with
contemporary issues.

2. Minimizing your Risks of Sports Injuries

36
The physical demands of being active have positive and negative effects. Positive
effects include physiological adaptations specific to physical demands like lower heart rate,
increased muscle mass or hypertrophy, and improved endurance while negative effects
include bodily responses or conditions such as muscle soreness and injuries.

Preventing Injuries
Injuries can be anything from the occurrence of a new symptom during training or
competition, to decreased athletic performance as a result of reduced functioning of a body
part, to the cessation of participation that necessitates contact with medical personnel.
Injuries can be acquired from any form of physical activity participation whether you are a
beginner or an experienced one.

Injury prevention refers to the prevention or reduction of severity of injuries caused


by physical activity participation. Minimizing risks of getting injured is key to injury
prevention. There are many factors that may put you at risk of getting injured. These may
include the type of physical activities you do, the exercise program you follow, the physical
environment where you do physical activities, the appeal and equipment you use, and
many others.

The What and the How


There are several techniques that you need to observe and apply as you continue
becoming much more active. These techniques are very important because they not only
lessen your risks of getting injured, they also make you better suited for participation in
physical activities.

Warm-up and Cool-down


Performing warm-up and cool-down activities are good for your physical activity
performance.

Warm-up activities gradually prepares your body for a more demanding physical
activity. It reduces the risk of muscle and joint injury. Some examples of warm-up activities
are walking, jogging, and flexibility exercises such as stretching.

Cool-down activities, are performed after a game an exercise, or any physical


activity. It aims to decrease the intensity of the physical activity and return the body to its
resting level. Slow walking and movements done with low intensity and frequency can be
used as cool-down activities.

Stretching
Improves one’s flexibility. It is a kind of exercise where the joints of the body are
worked to improve their ranges of motion. Two of the different types of stretching are the
static and dynamic stretching.

Static stretching aims to improve the maximum range a joint can achieve under
stationary conditions.

Dynamic stretching aims to improve the maximum range but under active
conditions.

Below are some tips to help you in stretching.

osteoporosis or arthritis osteoporosis or arthritis
Do stretch weak or recently injured Don’t ballistic ally stretch weak or recently
muscles with care injured muscles
Do make certain the body is in good Don’t stretch swollen joints without
alignment when stretching professional supervision

Proper Hydration
Staying well-hydrated before, during, and after any physical activity is important.
Sweating due to physical activity is to be expected especially if the intensity is moderate to
vigorous. Hence, proper hydration helps the body maintain normal body temperature.

Proper hydration should also be done especially when engaging in physical activities
under the heat or in high temperature venues. The fluid replacements helps the body
respond accordingly to the temperature and these replenish thirst felt during physical
activity.

Proper hydration is also important to help address heat-related problems that you
might encounter when exercising.

Wearing Appropriate Sports and Protective Gear


One of the most important preventive measures to avoid injury while participating in
any sports is the use of appropriate sports and protective gear. These are the types of
clothing that should be worn during physical activity participation. Shirts, shorts, pants,
socks, and undergarments especially designed for physical activity should be used.

Comfort is also very important when choosing appropriate clothing. Here are some
tips on selecting appropriate clothing.

Selecting Appropriate Clothing for Activity


General Guidelines Special Considerations
Avoid clothing that is too tight or that Women should wear an exercise bra for
restricts movement support
Material in contact with skin should be Men should consider an athletic supporter
porous for support
Wear layers so that a layer can be removed Wear reflective clothing for night activities
if not needed

Protective equipment such as athletic supporter, shin guards, helmets, knee and
elbow pads, and mouth guards, should be worn when participating in physical activities
that involve physical contact or have increased risk of getting injuries.

38
Protective Sports Skills Properly

Proper body mechanics is important when you participate in physical activities. Body
mechanics or biomechanics is a discipline that applies mechanical laws and principles to
the study of how the body can perform more efficiently and with less energy. Movement
safety, or injury prevention and treatment, should always be highlighted even if you are an
experienced exerciser or athlete.

The positioning and alignment of body parts while moving, the guidelines when
executing different movements, and the recommended alternative or substitute exercise for
harmful or dangerous ones are some of the things you should keep in mind as you
participate in physical activities.

Adhesive Taping

Athletic adhesive tapes are specialized tapes used for supporting bone anatomy and
relieving stress on adjacent or supporting soft tissue, among other purposes. Based on
accurate assessment, adhesive taping helps protect, restrict, or support specific body parts.
When taping, body parts such as the extremities are immobilized and body parts is taped.
Although proper taping does not prevent injuries, it can decrease the severity of injuries.

Rest and Recovery

The training principles of rest and recovery indicates that indicates that adequate
rest is needed to allow the body to adapt to and recover from exercise. You should allow
your body to recuperate or recover from the demands you placed on it. Proper rest is
needed within intense periods of activity, and appropriate rest is needed between training
sessions.

avenue for you and your friends to enjoy and keep fit at the same time.

Assessing One’s Physical Activities, Exercises, and Eating Habits


To manage your body well, you should be able to assess how much exercise you
actually need. Since health, exercise, and what you eat correlate with one another, it is best
to keep all of these in their proper balance.
The food that you eat has a lot to do with your physical well-being. Proper nutrition
contributes to the amount of energy you can burn when doing exercise such as dancing.
For this reason, a balanced diet is of utmost importance. A balanced diet consists of food
that is packed with proper nutrients that fuel the body and keep the organs and tissues
working effectively. Without proper nutrition, your body is more prone to disease, infection,
fatigue, and poor performance.

and mass media, coms the re-emergence of being fit, beautiful, and being cool.

They say you move to the groove of music. There are unlimited dance moves that you
can do as you listen to the beats of your favorite artist. Dancing as a professional in
another story however, for the purpose of exercise, rhythm is secondary.

The following are some basic moves in hip-hop or street dancing:


1. Toprock

movements done while standing. This move develops
one’s coordination, flexibility, rhythm, and style.

2. Downrock

This moves is performed with the hands and feet


grounded to the floor. Movement proficiency and
footwork speed are the main highlights of this move.

3. Freeze

The combination of these moves is collectively called


break dancing, breaking, or b-boying. In relation to dancing as a form of exercise, these
movements may be classified as either moderate or vigorous physical activities depending
on the intensity of the performer doing the moves.
Technique plays a key role when dancing. Break dancing, in particular, makes the
person doing the moves prone to some injuries when not done properly. As in other
disciplines, “practices makes perfect” when dancing.

Origin of Cheer dancing

Cheer dancing is the current evolution of cheerleading, a physical activity for sports
team motivation, audience entertainment, and competition based on organized routines.
Organized routines refer to a combination of sequentially organized dancing, yelling,
cheering, jumping, tumbling, and stunting.

The first organized cheerleading began as an activity carried out by men from
Princeton University during their baseball and football games in 1877. Their cheer was
yelled from the stands as they watch their team play.

Women’s participation in cheerleading only bloomed in the 1940s after World War 2
broke, for most collegiate men were drafted to serve as soldiers.

Basic Cheer dancing Moves and Stunts

1. Dancing – to move rhythmically to music, typically following a set sequence of steps.


2. Yelling – a loud, sharp way of shouting a chant.
3. Cheering – shout for joy or to encourage the crowd.
4. Jumping – push oneself off a surface and into the air by using the muscles in one’s legs
and feet.
5. Tumbling – perform acrobatic feats, typically handsprings and somersaults in the air.
6. Stunting – an action displaying spectacular and daring skills
a. Arabesque – one leg is down straight and the other leg is behind you almost at a
ninety degree angle to your back.
b. Basket toss – a stunt to toss the flyer into the air.
c. Cradle catch – an end movement where a base catches a flyer after tossing them in
the air. The base holds the flyer under their thighs and around their back.
d. Deadman – a flyer falls backwards or forwards out of a stunt. Three or four people
catch the flyer and could possibly push the flyer back up to the bases hands.

Basic Composition of a Cheering Squad

a. Flyer
The flyer is the person who is usually lifted into the air when performing a
stunt. They are almost always the smallest, lightest, and most flexible or athletic.

b. Bases and spotters


Bases and spotters are the persons who lift the flyer into the air and catch
their fall during a stunt.

Basic Stunts of Cheer dancing

head to resemble a scorpion.
f. Heel Stretch
The flyer stands on one leg then holds her other foot to the side of her head.

Participating in Physical Activity-related Programs

There is no such thing as a cheer dancer who singlehandedly performs to a crowd.


Cheer dancing is a team endeavor. It is all about several individuals working together as a
single unit aiming to achieve a common goal. Like any team-played sport, every member of
the cheer dance squad has a specific role to play.

3. Folk Dance

Folk Dance
When tribal societies in Europe gave way to more structured societies, the old dance
forms gradually developed into what are now called folk or peasant dances. For a long time
these retained much of their original significance and therefore could have received the
modern classification of “ethnic.” The Maypole dance, still sometimes performed in
England, is a descendant of older tree-worshipping dances, the ribbons that the dancers
hold as they dance around the pole symbolizing the tree’s branches.
Although different areas and countries have different styles of dance, most of them
share common formations and styles of movement. The earliest and simplest formation, the
closed circle, is found in all folk dances and derives from the ritual of circling around an
object of worship.

44
The dancers grasp one another by the hands, wrists, shoulders, elbows, or waists
and face the centre of the circle. In more complex forms, dancers move into and out of the
circle to perform individual movements or to join into couples, or, as the dancers circle,
they may weave around one another.
Many folk dances today are performed in sets, groups of about eight dancers who
may perform in all of the above formations but within a restricted space. In other dances,
individuals may leave the group and dance on their own. Folk dance steps are usually quite
simple variations on walking, hopping, skipping, and turning. (See above Folk dance.)

There are a lot of experiences that could bring about joy, pleasure, and satisfaction.
As teens, you might be in constant search of new experiences or thrills in life. There is
nothing wrong with living life to the fullest. Although, there has to be a hard limit to
everything.

Global Strategy to Reduce the Harmful Use of Alcohol


During your health classes in the lower grades, you learned about gateway drugs like
nicotine, alcohol, and caffeine. At the beginning of this unit, the World Health Organization
has focused on nicotine or tobacco.

Based on research conducted on the prevalence and effects of alcohol and alcoholism, some
of their findings as follows.
a. The abuse of alcohol has adverse effects on the individual and on society.
b. Alcohol consumption is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the
world.
c. Alcoholism is a risk factor towards mental disorders.

The global strategy has five main objectives.


1. Promote awareness on the harmful effects of alcoholic substances on the
individual and society.
2. Further increase the level of awareness to promote national programs to reduce
these harmful effects.
3. Enhance government support and empower members of society to find viable ways
to avoid alcoholism.

The strategy includes plans of actions to be implemented on a national level. The WHO
website lists them as follows.
1. Leadership, awareness, and commitment
49
2. Health services’ response
3. Community action

The strategy also includes four priority areas for global action. These are: public
health advocacy, and partnership; technical support and capacity building; production and
discrimination of knowledge; and resources mobilization.

Alcoholism in the Philippines


Alcoholism is a widely acknowledge problem in the Philippines. In the more crowded
areas and even in informal settlement areas, you see drinking sessions taking place in
public view of children. Alcohol drinking has been a form of social interaction in Filipino
culture.

There have been studies that almost half of the Philippine population consume
alcohol. Furthermore, more than half of Filipino youth, ages 13-17, have tried alcoholic
beverages at least once. This is an alarming statistic considering that 18 is the legal
drinking age in the Philippines.
