We may play in a contemporary rock vein, use standard bebop themes, and many other things besides.
I never found even in my juvenile hours that it was necessary to go a thousand miles in search of themes for moralizing.
Composers in the old days used to keep strictly to the base of the theme, as their real subject. Beethoven varies the melody, harmony and rhythms so beautifully.
In a sense, all of my books have been about a 'poisonous pedagogy,' which engenders a culture of obedience, this underlying theme of patriarchal systems.
Once we start hitting lyrical themes that can whack you from all these different perspectives, we know we're onto something special.
I would like to do things like I did in Tanzania, going somewhere and exploring a theme and investigating as well as performing for those people.
A key sociological factor underlying the prevalence of zombies as a theme in modern culture is that zombie movies are cheap as hell to make.
I do what I do because of Walt Disney - his films and his theme park and his characters and his joy in entertaining.
The Governor: [setting a recurring theme of imprisonment throughout the film] Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!... Open the door!

When the news wants to tell you something is important, they put dramatic theme music behind it. They scare you into watching the story.
I like giving music-themed gifts. I've given a couple of music documentaries to boys. Especially if they don't have the same taste as me, I try to infiltrate their mind with my favourite bands.
You know, usually with movies there are periods, dark areas, where I might not be getting what I wanted out of a theme. I'll have to go over and over it again.
There is more to Indian cinema than just Bollywood. I think regional cinema, especially Tamil and Marathi cinema, are exploring some really bold themes.
A major theme in all my books is that the CIA is not only the first line of defense but they should also be the first line of offense.
I call myself a feminist, not a feminist filmmaker. If somebody asked me if I had a feminist sensibility it would be pretty hard to deny, but is it the theme of my work? Not necessarily. I'm interested in a lot of things.
It is very much the theme of our President, President Thabo Mbeki, whose passion is for Africa to work together, and for Africans to get up and do things for us. We are trying as women to do things for ourselves.
