Role reprisal

[edit]

What does it mean to "reprise a role" in a movie or play? I see this term regularly used to mean "played a character from one production in another production, or in another episode of the same production." However, I cannot find a dictionary definition anywhere. --DAW0001 (talk) 20:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't look hard, did you? M-W.com: Noun: "2: a recurrence, renewal, or resumption of an action", Verb: "3a: to repeat the performance of". Hyacinth (talk) 11:32, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cut & paste?

[edit]

The citation of Stein 2005 seems to show that this text was just cut and pasted from someone's report that had citations listed. The citations were apparently not carried over. Macetw (talk) 13:29, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, that text was the original article and the citation was deleted: [1]. Hyacinth (talk) 11:32, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

List the Rock Reprises

[edit]

I was wondering if someone could list all of the known rock reprises on albums in a list box or just in bullet form. It looks terrible garbled in that one paragraph. I would do it but I don't know how. (70.55.226.3 (talk) 14:03, 23 April 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Yes's "We Haven Heaven"

[edit]

"We Heaven Heaven" is a song on Yes's famous album Fragile and when the song ends it sounds like a door is shut. After the song "Heart Of The Sunrise" a sound of a door opening is heard and "We Have Heaven" has a reprise. I think this reprise is important enough to be listed. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 00:47, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres" from Rush's album Hemispheres contains slight reprises of Book I from A Farewell to Kings in the part titled "V: "Cygnus": Bringer of Balance". They may be very brief reprises but they are still notable due to it being continuous with the story and brings a kind of "closure" to both pieces. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vinciryan (talkcontribs) 01:03, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removed: Uncited

[edit]
  • The Grateful Dead Frequently used "reprise" in several songs during their live shows. Extensive touring of over 30 years helped them pioneer this technique, which is difficult to get right. Playing in the Band often would be used as a jumping off point to a jam and several other tunes. Often played in the 2nd set it would sum up a suite of songs with a "Playing in the Band reprise", sometimes after 6-7 consecutive songs. Another form of this would be "The Other One" where the band would play the first section of the song and use it as a jumping off point for a jam. After the jam resolved it would often lead into other Dead tunes and at some point they would work their way back into a jam and go back into "The Other One".[citation needed]
Here is an example of a typical set set list of Dead songs from Grateful Dead Hartford Civic Center May 28, 1977 (a ">" indicates a seamless transition from one song to another): Estimated Prophet> Playin' in the Band> Terrapin Station> Not Fade Away> Wharf Rat> Playin' in the Band(Reprise)[citation needed]

The above where removed as uncited. Hyacinth (talk) 22:31, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Although I don't agree that simple track listings need citations, this is a huge frickin' list and doesn't need to be in the article. BTW, not only does "Time" lead to "Breathe (Reprise)" on Dark Side of the Moon, but the later track, "Any Colour You Like", is structurally a second reprise of "Breathe", albeit modulated from D to C (or, from E-minor-to-A-major repeating endlessly, to D-minor-to-G-major doing so.) Anyone tempted to write this off as coincidence (after all, ii-V progressions are very common in music; "The Great Gig in the Sky", from the same album, is not necessarily a reprise of "Breathe", though it repeats a ii-V in F) should be advised that the unique ending sequence is also a modulated version of the one in "Breathe", as well. This has probably been mentioned somewhere else, anyway.

Reverse reprise?

[edit]

Is there a name for the opposite of a reprise? I.e., instead of playing the full-length song first and a shortened version later, in a reverse reprise the shortened version would be played earlier in the work with the full-length one later.

A possible example in rock would be Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick In The Wall”. Of the 3 parts, part II is considered to be the definitive one (it is the longest, was the only one released as a single and receives the most radio play). Part I would be the opposite of a reprise (whatever that’s called) and Part III would be a normal reprise. 2600:1014:B047:CFA4:6952:240F:75FD:BD85 (talk) 20:13, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
