JOSEPH mmm, or "ronon'ro, ONTARIO, AND CECIL ianuon-ivrnrcntrn, or GUELPH,
I ONTARIO, CANADA. 1 a I p r a r MUSICAL SETTING OR S GO RE.
To all whom/it may concern: I
Be it known that we, JOSEPH QUINTILE, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Toronto, in the county of York 5 and Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, and CECIL BRUCE METCALFE, a subject of His Majesty King George V of reat Britain, and a resident of the city, of Guelph, in the county of Wellington and Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, have invented a new or Improved Musical Setting or Score for Use in Accompanying Moving Pictures and other Such likePurposes, of which the following is a specification.
In the musical accompaniments for movmg picture scenes it is frequently necessary to change the temperament and time of the music being played, very rapidly to suit the changes in the character of the pictures thrown on the screen. Heretofore it has been necessary for the musical performer, to turn to another composition in the same or another book, to suit the character of the picture thrown onto the screen, and as it is sometimes very difiicult to locate a suitable composition instantaneously, it sometimes necessitates an absolute stoppage or break in the music; and, in cases where there is a plurality of instruments accompanying the pictures it sometimes occasionsconsiderable fumblin around and delay until all are fully in ine again in the new air.
The object of our invention is the arrangement on the same sheet of a plurality of staffs, 2, 3, or 4:, as the case may be, carrying individual tunes of different character or rhythm, and each one harmonized and complete within itself, as for instance, the top staff may be a piece of hurried, excitable music, and the one beneath a slow, senti-' mental piece, or a third or fourth may still be added carrying a waltz, or march, etc..
specification of Iletters Patent. Pfitnted ulie 1751919. Application filed August so, 1915. serial No. 252,052. v
All these tunes 7 arev so composed, and har- 'monically arranged'that the 'musician may drop instantaneously from the end of any bar in one piece to the succeeding bar in one of thelower staffs, and vice-versa, without interrupting the flow of the music an as often as the mood of the picture requires.
In orchestral arrangements the music of each instrument will also have its individual part to each of the melodies, so that not only can the orchestra change immediately from one to the other as explained above but, the pieces being so composed, the orchestra may be divided 7 into two sections, each section playing a different melody at the same time. Thus at the leaders direction the section playing the excitable music could play loudly while the other section with the sentimental music could be very soft, or the opposite mode could be taken according to the lead-- ers signs and the action'on the screen.
I illustrate my invention by means of the accompanying drawing containing three bars each offast, slow and waltz music respectively as follows: number one hurry, number two plaintive, number three, waltz. The music on each one of these staffs is interchangeable at the end of any bar, For instance, should the music'start on staff number two plaintive and should the musician be notified that an instantaneous change to faster music is desired, he can, at the end of the first bar of the plaintive or slowmusic-stafi number two-instantaneously change to the second bar of the hurry music on stafi number one and at the end of he said bar, can just as readily, change back to the-thirdbar of the plaintive or slow music on staff number two Without anyone noticing the slightest pause or hesitation I r having the slightest idea that the music has been changed. It will readily be seen that this transposition or A musical setting 'or' score comprising a plurality of musical compositions enharmonically arranged but difiering intone, time and character one below the other upon the same sheet and so printed that the bars shall correspond at certain places from the top to the bottom of the sheet so thatthe performers may change immediately from one melody to another of different character and that the difierent tunes. enharmonicaily arranged may be played at the same time by 15 several performers as may be required to accompany moving pictures.
