Using music in silent theatrical performances-Advertising stickers optional

Abstract

Research Summary

       Music has accompanied the art of theater since its first inception in many forms, including hunting rituals, worship, and religious and worldly holidays and celebrations. Then it developed and flourished with the development of the art of theater and its association with science and knowledge, so music became fused into the arts in general and the art of acting in particular, keeping pace with the requirements and needs of human societies despite their different cultures and the diversity of their races. Its topics were diverse and its uses were multiple, so people came to terms with it and harmonize with its impact on individuals, its importance, and its role in human life.

Through this, the researcher derived the topic of his research (employing music in the silent theatrical performance) and was divided into three chapters. The first chapter included the methodological framework that included the research problem, which was represented by the question (How was music employed with the acting performance in the silent theatrical performance), and the importance of the research and the need for it, which It is represented by the importance of music in the silent theatrical performance and the real support it represents to highlight the movement of the body. Students of the College of Fine Arts also benefit from it in employing musical rhythm to support the physical performance. As for the importance of the research, it is evident in revealing the use of music in the silent theatrical performance.

As for the second chapter, the researcher tried to establish a theoretical framework from two sections. The first section dealt with music and its role in building the dramatic act. In the second section, the use of music in silent theatrical performances. Then, in the second section, the researcher extracted the indicators that resulted from the theoretical framework.       In the third chapter, the researcher conducted his research procedures, specifying the population, the sample, and the research tool according to what is appropriate to the nature of the research, and then he analyzed the research sample (a play show, posters, and advertisements). As for the fourth chapter, it included the research results reached by the researcher, which are that music was not used correctly in the silent theatrical show, but rather the director relied on physical fitness, because most of the actors did not have the musical ear and musical sense, and therefore he used the body technique more than the music technique.
