  • Pauline Oliveros, Somatics, and the New Musicology
    Pauline Oliveros, Somatics, and the New Musicology JOHN KAPUSTA In the 1960s and ’70s a loose network of “body workers” emerged in the United States to form what became known as the somatics or bodywork movement.1 Advocates for somatics, though diverse in intellectual orientation, embraced one common goal: to Thank you to James Davies, Reed Gochberg, Scott Saul, and Mary Ann Smart, who read and commented on previous versions of this 1 article. Thank you, too, to Kerry O’Brien for many enlightening conversations about Oliveros and bodywork. My thanks also to the librarians and archivists at the University of California, San Diego Special Collections and Archives and the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California, whose help was invaluable as I completed research for this project. Finally, thank you to the editors and anonymous reviewers of this journal for their criticisms and suggestions. Ear- lier versions of some of the material in this article were presented at the 2019 Annual Meeting of the American Musicological Society and the 2015 Feminist Theory and Music Conference. This research was supported by funding from the Eastman School of Music, the Society for American Music Edward T. Cone Fellowship, the American Musicological Society Ora Frishberg Saloman Endowment Travel Award, and the Music Department of the University of California, Berkeley. 1 On the history of somatic practices in relation to twentieth-century spirituality and body cultures, see Jeffrey J.

Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May, 1993, 68 pp., 9 figures, 33 musical examples, appendix, bibliography, 48 titles. This dissertation primarily concerns performance aspects in compositions for piano and tape, using three specific works as the basis for discussion: Larry Austin's Sonata Concertante, Thomas Clark's Peninsula, and Phil Winsor's Passages. These compositions are representative of the medium as a whole, yet each offers its own unique set of performance problems. Chapter One serves as an introduction to the medium of electronics, providing a historical overview of electronic music and its instruments. Chapter Two is a survey of various compositional approaches that have been utilized in combining tape plus live instruments.
