WB shield and wave effect |
| Description: |
There is a dissonant bass note and an upward gliss in measure 2 of the fanfare (one of the only cases in which the WB Fanfare is altered before its resolution); this is intended to convey the crashing of waves on the screen; these waves wipe out the words on the screen each time they appear |
| Music annotations: |
[m. 1] From M. T. "Gold is!!" / The wave effect |
| Analysis: |
The fanfare normally moves to a B major triad; here B major is enharmonically respelled as Cb in the upper parts, with an Ab added over a Bb pedal (bypassing the B major sonority altogether) |
