The Trombone Sonatas of Richard A. Monaco Viii 3T7? No. THE TROMBONE SONATAS OF RICHARD A. MONACO DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS By John A. Seidel, B.S., M.M. Denton, Texas December, 19 88 Seidel, John A., The Trombone Sonatas of Richard A. Monaco, A Lecture Recital, Together with Three Recitals of Selected Works by J.S. Bach, Paul Creston, G.F. Handel, Paul Hindemith, Vincent Persichetti, and Others. Doctor of Musical Arts in Trombone Performance, December, 1988, 43 pp., 24 musical examples, bibliography, 28 titles. This lecture-recital investigated the music of Richard A. Monaco, especially the two sonatas for trombone (1958 and 1985). Monaco (1930-1987) was a composer, trombonist and conductor whose instrumental works are largely unpublished and relatively little known. In the lecture, a fairly extensive biographical chapter is followed by an examination of some of Monaco's early influences, particularly those in the music of Hunter Johnson and Robert Palmer, professors of Monaco's at Cornell University. Later style characteristics are discussed in a chapter which examines the Divertimento for Brass Quintet (1977), the Duo for Trumpet and Piano (1982), and the Second Sonata for Trombone and Piano (1985). The two sonatas for trombone are compared stylistically and for their position of importance in the composer's total output. The program included a performance of both sonatas in their entirety. Tape recordings of all performances submitted as dissertation requirements are on deposit in the library of the University of North Texas.

Monaco composed his First Sonata for Trombone and Piano at an important juncture in his life. Nearing completion of the degree Doctor of Musical Arts in composition at Cornell University, he felt compelled to choose between a possible career as a jazz trombonist or a career in higher education.1 Although he chose the latter, and performed brilliantly in that role, he continued playing trombone until illness forced him to take to the piano as a creative outlet. Monaco was a superb jazz trombonist, capable of performing at a professional level,2 yet the world is no worse for his decision to pursue academic life. Certainly, his life in higher education provided the freedom he needed to engage fully in the wide range of his musical interests. Monaco was not only a composer and trombonist, but also a conductor of both choral and instrumental music, and a reviewer and critic. He organized and conducted a professional chamber orchestra in Oxford, Ohio and for William Richardson, "Program Notes" for a Faculty Recital at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, September 27, 1985. 2 Robert Palmer, in a telephone interview, September 20, 1988. several years served as a member of the editorial staff of the Music Library Association's publication, Notes. He was by all accounts a brilliant man. Those who knew Monaco describe him as insightful, intelligent and witty. These traits are apparent in his music. The music contains elements of jazz, folk song, hymns and chant. Monaco himself acknowledged the influence of Stravinsky and Copland. In his compositions, these elements are woven into a unique musical texture, the product of a distinctive musical imagination. Most of Monaco's work remains unpublished, therefore details of his life and compositional output are not widely known. Besides presenting a biographical section that may remedy this situation to some extent, this paper will examine the sonatas for trombone and piano as well as other pieces which seem to be important in defining his work stylistically. Monaco's early works, particularly the First Sonata for Trombone and Piano, are influenced significantly by his teachers, Hunter Johnson and Robert Palmer. Compositional practices of theirs which seem to be significant in Monaco's work will be discussed as well. Monaco was an extraordinary individual with a distinctive musical imagination. It is the author's desire to promote a greater awareness of the man and his work. Chapter I RICHARD A. MONACO: A BIOGRAPHY Monaco was born on January 10, 1930 in New York City. As his father was an army physician, Monaco spent some of his childhood in Texas, but by his early teens the family had returned to New York. Accounts of his early years in New York are incomplete, but by his mid-teens Monaco was traveling regularly on weekends with a band playing the black clubs in New York City. That he was accepted by the black musicians at the tender age of fifteen or sixteen is testimony to what must have been considerable ability on jazz trombone. A colleague of his in later years described his jazz playing as first-rate. He was a be-bop player, influenced by J.J. Johnson and Kai Winding.

  • Turbofolk Reconsidered
    Alexander Praetz und Matthias Thaden – Turbofolk reconsidered Matthias Thaden und Alexander Praetz Turbofolk reconsidered Some thoughts on migration and the appropriation of music in early 1990s Berlin Abstract This paper’s aim is to shed a light on the emergence, meanings and contexts of early 1990s turbofolk. While this music-style has been exhaustively investigated with regard to Yugoslavia and Serbia, its appropriation by Yugoslav labour migrants has hitherto been no subject of particular interest. Departing from this research gap this paper focuses on “Ex-Yugoslav” evening entertainment and music venues in Berlin and the role turbofolk possessed. We hope to contribute to the ongoing research on this music relying on insights we gained from our fieldwork and the interviews conducted in early and mid-2013. After criticizing some suggestions that have been made regarding the construction of group belongings by applying a dichotomous logic with turbofolk representing the supposedly “inferior”, this approach could serve to investigate the interplay between music and the making of everyday social boundaries. Drawing on the gathered interview material we, beyond merely confirming ethnic and national segmentations, suggest the emergence of new actors and the increase of private initiatives and regional solidarity to be of major importance for negotiating belongings. In that regard, turbofolk events – far from being an unambiguous signifier of group loyalty – were indeed capable to serve as a context that bridged both national as well as social cleavages. Introduction The cultural life of migrants from the former Yugoslavia is a subject area that so far has remained to be widely under-researched.

He received a degree from the Lodz Conservatory, while he also got his doctoral degree in law from the University of Warsaw. Tansman preferred to call himself a Polish composer, although his music was highly influenced by neoclassical and French composers; two mentors in particular impacted his music indefinitely- Maurice Ravel and Igor Stravinsky. Although Tansman's music was not as popular as most famous composers, his solo piano performances were sought after internationally. Written in 1952, the Sonatine for Bassoon and Piano is a precise example of how his music combines both neoclassical and French elements of music.

Research articles were coded to fit into twelve prominent categories: career-related, composition, extended techniques/modern practices, health, historical, instrument, interview, pedagogy, performance practice, performer profile, reeds, and other. After an analysis of journal articles (N =935) from The Double Reed, results indicated historical articles, interviews, and composition-related articles were the most prominent categories. There was a fairly even dispersion between oboe and bassoon articles, while the majority of published material was generated from American authors. Additional trends are noted to inform and advance the double reed community.

    UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI Date: May 28, 2004 I, Eric Stomberg, hereby submit this work as part of the requirements for the degree of: Doctor of Musical Arts in: Bassoon Performance It is entitled: The Bassoon Sonatas of Victor Bruns: An analytical and performance perspective (with an annotated bibliography of works for bassoon) This work and its defense approved by: Chair: William Winstead Robert Zierolf Mary Sue Morrow The Bassoon Sonatas of Victor Bruns: An analytical and performance perspective (with an annotated bibliography of works for bassoon) A thesis submitted to the Division of Graduate Studies and Research of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music May 28, 2004 by Eric Stomberg B.M., University of Kansas, 1994 M.M., University of Cincinnati, 1996 Advisor: William Winstead Abstract Sonata repertoire for bassoon and piano is rather narrow in scope and quantity when compared to sonata repertoire of other woodwind instruments. Outside of the sonatas for bassoon and piano of Etler, Hindemith, Hurlstone, Saint-Säens, and Wilder, works are relatively few and rarely played. Representative works from the mid-to-late twentieth century are often difficult even to locate. Fortunately, a substantial body of sonata repertoire lies in the three sonatas for bassoon and piano by Victor Bruns (1904- 96).
