Language of Material: English, Spanish, French Conditions Governing Access Collection is open for research. Arrangement The collection is arranged in four series, the first of which further arranged in three subseries: Series 1: Musical Compositions and Projects (arranged by musical genre) Subseries 1: Stage (arranged chronologically) Subseries 2: Vocal (arranged chronologically) Subseries 3: Instrumental (arranged chronologically) Series 2: Musical Sketches (chronological) Series 3: Professional Papers (chronological) Series 4: Musical Compositions by Other Composers (alphabetical by composer surname) Biographical / Historical Joaquín Maria Nin-Culmell (Berlin, 5 September 1908—14 January 2004, Berkeley), pianist, composer, and music pedagogue was the youngest child of Cuban singer Rosa Culmell and Spanish-raised composer Joaquín Nin. After his parents separated, his mother moved Nin-Culmell, his sister Anaïs and brother Thorvald, from Barcelona to New York City where they lived for nine years (1914-1924). At age fifteen, Nin-Culmell and his family moved to Europe (1924-1938). He began his musical studies in Barcelona with Conchita Badia, student of Enrique Granados, and later studied piano in Paris at the Schola Cantorum (1925-1930), and privately with Alfred Cortot and Ricardo Viñes, then harmony, counterpoint, and fugue with Jean and Noel Gallon, and composition with Paul Dukas at the Conservatory (1932-1935). During the summers of 1930, 1932, and 1934 he studied with Manuel de Falla in Granada. In 1939, Nin-Culmell moved to the United States, where he taught at Middlebury College, Vermont before joining the music faculty of Williams College in Williamstown, MA (1940-1950), then the Music Department faculty at the University of California, Berkeley (1950-1974). Throughout his career, Nin-Culmell performed in concerts throughout Europe and the United States. While at Berkeley, he conducted the University of California Symphony Orchestra and appeared as a pianist with numerous musical groups in the San Francisco Bay Area. After retiring from UC Berkeley, he continued to compose and perform. Many of his musical compositions are based on folkloric materials, often with changed rhythm, mode or melodic contour of traditional melodies.

The French preoccupation with the past had been developing throughout the later nineteenth century and increased with Stravinsky’s residency in France.1 Stravinsky’s particular brand of neoclassicism did not find favour, however, with a number of intellectual young composers of the 1930s, notably those associated with La Jeune France, who regarded neoclassicism as a false path for musical modernism and were scathing in their attacks upon it.

  • The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000
    The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000: A Performative and Analytical Study, with a Catalogue Raisonné of the Extant Works Analytical Study: The Contest Works for Trumpet and Cornet of the Paris Conservatoire, 1835-2000: A Study of Instrumental Techniques, Forms and Genres, with a Catalogue Raisonné of the Extant Corpus By Brandon Philip Jones ORCHID ID# 0000-0001-9083-9907 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2018 Faculty of Fine Arts and Music The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT The Conservatoire de Paris concours were a consistent source of new literature for the trumpet and cornet from 1835 to 2000. Over this time, professors and composers added over 172 works to the repertoire. Students and professionals have performed many of these pieces, granting long-term popularity to a select group. However, the majority of these works are not well-known. The aim of this study is to provide students, teachers, and performers with a greater ability to access these works. This aim is supported in three ways: performances of under-recorded literature; an analysis of the instrumental techniques, forms and genres used in the corpus; and a catalogue raisonné of all extant contest works. The performative aspect of this project is contained in two compact discs of recordings, as well as a digital video of a live recital. Twenty-six works were recorded; seven are popular works in the genre, and the other nineteen are works that are previously unrecorded. The analytical aspect is in the written thesis; it uses the information obtained in the creation of the catalogue raisonné to provide an overview of the corpus in two vectors.

  • The Convergences Between Georges Migot and André Jolivet (1932-1937)
    Université de Montréal La Spirale, Le Zodiaque, and Mana: The Convergences Between Georges Migot and André Jolivet (1932-1937) La Spirale, Le Zodiaque, et Mana : Les convergences entre Georges Migot et André Jolivet (1932-1937) par Ariana Marie Hurt Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales Mémoire présenté à la Faculté de musique en vue de l’obtention du grade de Maîtrise en musique, option musicologie juillet 2019 © Ariana Hurt 2019 Université de Montréal Faculté de Musique Ce mémoire intitulé La Spirale, Le Zodiaque, and Mana: The Convergences Between Georges Migot and André Jolivet (1932-1937) La Spirale, Le Zodiaque, et Mana : Les convergences entre Georges Migot et André Jolivet Présenté par Ariana Marie Hurt A été évalué par un jury composé des personnes suivantes Sylveline Bourion Président-rapporteur François de Médicis Directeur de recherche Nathalie Fernando Membre du jury ii Résumé Ce mémoire porte sur la convergence des compositeurs français Georges Migot (1891-1976) et André Jolivet (1905-1974) au cours des années 1930 sur le plan de leurs idées en esthétique musicale, de leur démarche compositionnelle, et de leur implication administrative sur la scène musicale parisienne. Ceci a pour but de mieux comprendre l’amitié spéciale entre Migot et Jolivet, mesurer son influence sur leurs personnalités musicales, observer son impact sur leur engagement commun au sein de la société de concert La Spirale, et, plus globalement, évaluer sa portée sur l’ensemble de la scène musicale française. Actuellement, Stravinsky, Ravel et le Groupe des Six prennent une grande place dans les histoires de la vie musicale française de l’entre-deux-guerres.

The reality lies in the middle, in which many individuals participated in resistance or collaboration in a variety of degrees. I argue that composing, performing, and listening to music are substantial resistant acts, using the resistance movements in Occupied Paris as a case study. This study has two overarching goals.

  • An Historical and Stylistic Examination of Charles Chaynes' Concerto
    AN HISTORICAL AND STYLISTIC EXAMINATION OF CHARLES CHAYNES’ CONCERTO POUR TROMPETTE AND DEUXIÈME CONCERTO POUR TROMPETTE, WITH AN INTERVIEW OF THE COMPOSER Marc Allen Reed, B.M.E., B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2007 APPROVED: Keith Johnson, Major Professor Eugene Corporon, Minor Professor John Holt, Committee Member James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Reed, Marc Allen, An historical and stylistic examination of Charles Chaynes’ Concerto Pour Trompette and Deuxième Concerto Pour Trompette, with an interview of the composer. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2007, 59 pp., 46 examples, bibliography, 32 titles. Research has been conducted on prominent mid-twentieth century French trumpet concertos and their composers. Jolivet, Bozza, and Tomasi have all been the subject of research. Charles Chaynes’ music is equally valuable to modern trumpet repertoire as that of Jolivet, Bozza, and Tomasi. Chaynes’ exclusion from research leaves a void in resources available to future trumpet students. A study of Charles Chaynes and his trumpet concertos is essential to preserving the history of the valve trumpet’s young modern repertoire. Lack of understanding of Chaynes’ trumpet concertos can only lead to misconceptions when interpreting these pieces. The thirty-nine year gap between Chaynes’ Trumpet Concerto No. 1 and Trumpet Concerto No. 2 is a remarkable time span between major compositions, and examining the works gives insight to the evolution of the trumpet concerto throughout the twentieth century. This project highlights Charles Chaynes’ contribution to the trumpet repertoire from both the beginning and end of his compositional career, and fills the research gap concerning his concertos.

Nineteen-year-old Lili Boulanger was the new sound of French music. Never before had a woman composer won first place in the century old Prix de Rome due to the conservative political views shared by the Académie and the misogyny of the competition’s jury. This momentous event has been given much attention in the research of Boulanger’s Prix de Rome success through sociological perspective on France in 1913; a bourgeoning feminist atmosphere in the increasingly liberal government of France influenced the jury’s decision to award Boulanger the Premier Grand Prix. Contemporary English musicological scholarship has favored this socio-historical narrative over analysis the aesthetic character of her winning cantata, Faust et Hélène, thereby neglecting another significant facet to Boulanger’s win; her overt incorporation of motifs from Richard Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde.
