Abstract Title of Dissertation: INFLUENCES AND TRANSFORMATIONS: 19TH- CENTURY SOLO AND COLLABORATIVE PIANO REPERTOIRE Miori Sugiyama, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2012 Dissertation Directed by: Professor Rita Sloan School of Music, Piano Division This dissertation is an exploration of the inter-relationships of genres in the collaborative piano repertoire, particularly in music of the 19th century, an especially important period for collaborative piano repertoire. During this time, much of the repertoire gave equal importance to the piano in duo and ensemble repertoire. Starting with Schubert, and becoming more apparent with the development of the German lied, the piano became a more integral part of any composition, the piano part being no longer simplistic but rather a collaborative partner with its own voice. Mendelssohn transformed the genre of lieder by writing them, without their words, for solo piano. In addition to creating some of the greatest and most representative lieder in the Romantic period, composers such as Schumann, Brahms, and Strauss continued the evolution of the sonata by writing works that were more technically demanding on the performer, musically innovative, and structurally still evolving. In the case of Chopin who wrote mostly piano works, a major influence came from the world of opera, particularly the Bel Canto style. In exploring two specific genres, vocal and instrumental piano works by these composers; it is fascinating to see how one genre translates to another genre. This was especially true in the vocal and instrumental works by Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Chopin, and Strauss. All of these composers, with the exception of Chopin, contributed equally to both the song and sonata genres. -

Luna’s original composition, Stamping Grounds, was inspired by a time when he flew as an unaccompanied seven-year-old minor to and from the east coast to the west coast, between his mother and father, who lived on opposite shores. Soon after the September 11th attack on the USA, the composer developed a fear of flying. But, over time, he overcame this fear. In Stamping Grounds, Luna’s experience is represented by several layers that come in and out of the foreground. Luna explains that “the ones that remain consistent are representative of the part of the experience at UCLA where I am grounded in reality; namely, the autopilot sense when walking in deep thought. The other layers that come in and out are the different memories of my childhood—from the good experiences with my family, to remembering the impact 9-11 had on me and this country.” The symmetrical form of the piece represents the composer’s thought process, with each end representing his home on each side of the country - his “stamping grounds.” Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture was written in 1807 for a German stage play by Heinrich von Collin. -
Coriolan Overture, Opus 62 Ludwig Van Beethoven (B. 1770, Bonn, Germany; D
Coriolan Overture, opus 62 Ludwig van Beethoven (b. 1770, Bonn, Germany; d. 1827, Vienna Austria) One of Shakespeare's most powerful tragedies is Coriolanus, the story (drawn from Plutarch's Lives) of a patrician Roman general destroyed by his overweening pride. After a decisive victory over the Volscians, Coriolanus refuses the consulship of Rome because it requires him to humble himself before the plebians or commoners; enraged at his arrogance, the people drive him into exile. But the willful general seeks revenge: he defects to his former enemies, the Volscians, and leads them against Rome. He battles his way to the very gates of Rome, where his compatriots send delegation after delegation asking him to spare his own city. When the stiff-necked warrior remains obdurate, his wife, mother, and son go out to plead with him, and he finally relents. Furious at his betrayal, the Volscians put him to death. Although Beethoven considered himself a republican and the foe of tyrants, he must have found many points in common between himself and this haughty Roman. He, too, possessed an iron will and, convinced of his genius, would not bend his neck even to princes. And he had practical reasons for creating an overture on this subject. In 1807, the composer was currying favor with the Viennese poet-playwright Heinrich von Collin, who was influential at Vienna's Imperial Theatre and who had written his own version of the Coriolanus tragedy five years earlier. Seeking a steady source of income, Beethoven wanted to secure a contract with the Theatre to write an opera annually for production there; he also hoped Collin would collaborate as his librettist. -
Beethoven's Fourth Symphony: Comparative Analysis of Recorded Performances, Pp
BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School Of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark Christopher Ferraguto August 2012 © 2012 Mark Christopher Ferraguto BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY Mark Christopher Ferraguto, PhD Cornell University 2012 Despite its established place in the orchestral repertory, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4 in B-flat, op. 60, has long challenged critics. Lacking titles and other extramusical signifiers, it posed a problem for nineteenth-century critics espousing programmatic modes of analysis; more recently, its aesthetic has been viewed as incongruent with that of the “heroic style,” the paradigm most strongly associated with Beethoven’s voice as a composer. Applying various methodologies, this study argues for a more complex view of the symphony’s aesthetic and cultural significance. Chapter I surveys the reception of the Fourth from its premiere to the present day, arguing that the symphony’s modern reputation emerged as a result of later nineteenth-century readings and misreadings. While the Fourth had a profound impact on Schumann, Berlioz, and Mendelssohn, it elicited more conflicted responses—including aporia and disavowal—from critics ranging from A. B. Marx to J. W. N. Sullivan and beyond. Recent scholarship on previously neglected works and genres has opened up new perspectives on Beethoven’s music, allowing for a fresh appreciation of the Fourth. Haydn’s legacy in 1805–6 provides the background for Chapter II, a study of Beethoven’s engagement with the Haydn–Mozart tradition. -

September 2016 – July 2017
SEPTEMBER 2016 –JULY 2017 Director’s Introduction Frances Marshall Photography One of Britain’s foremost singers, Sarah Connolly, opens the Hall’s new season with regular duo partner Malcolm Martineau, leading listeners through a programme rich in emotional contrasts, poetic reflections and glorious melodies. The recital includes Mahler’s sublime Rückert Lieder, the impassioned lyricism of Berlioz’s Les nuits d’été, the exotic subtle narrative impressions of Debussy’s three Chansons de Bilitis, and a selection of Schumann songs. Mark Padmore’s vocal artistry and ability to extract every drop of emotion from poetic texts have secured his place among today’s finest recitalists. Morgan Szymanski, described by Classical Guitar magazine as ‘a player destined for future glories’ joins him on 12 September. Critical acclaim for Angela Hewitt’s Bach interpretations bears witness to the pianist’s extraordinary ability to connect physically and emotionally as well as intellectually with the dance rhythms and expressive gestures of the composer’s keyboard works. The Bach Odyssey will highlight all of this over the next four years. Canadian soprano Barbara Hannigan performs like a force of nature, captivating audiences with her artistry’s presence and expressive vitality. She joins the Calder Quartet, winner of the 2014 Avery Fisher Career Grant, for the world première of The sirens cycle by Peter Eötvös. Beethoven’s piano sonatas occupied forty years of his life. They offer insights into his development as artist and individual, and stand among the greatest of all his works. Igor Levit, now in his late 20s, drew critical superlatives to his debut recording of Beethoven’s late sonatas and has since established his reputation as a visionary interpreter of the composer’s music. -
The First Movements of Sergei Bortkiewicz's Two Piano Sonatas, Op. 9
THE FIRST MOVEMENTS OF SERGEI BORTKIEWICZ’S TWO PIANO SONATAS, OP. 9 AND OP. 60: A COMPARISON INCLUDING SCHENKERIAN ANALYSIS AND AN EXAMINATION OF CLASSICAL AND ROMANTIC INFLUENCES Yi Jing Chen, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2021 APPROVED: Gustavo Romero, Major Professor Timothy Jackson, Co-Major Professor Elvia Puccinelli, Committee Member Steven Harlos, Chair of the Division of Keyboard Studies Jaymee Haefner, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Chen, Yi Jing. The First Movements of Sergei Bortkiewicz’s Two Piano Sonatas, Op. 9 and Op. 60: A Comparison including Schenkerian Analysis and an Examination of Classical and Romantic Influences. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2021, 79 pp., 1 figure, 47 musical examples, 1 appendix, bibliography, 57 titles. The purpose of this study is to analyze the first movements of Sergei Bortkiewicz’s two piano sonatas and compare them with works by other composers that may have served as compositional models. More specifically, the intention is to examine the role of the subdominant key in the recapitulation and trace possible inspirations and influences from the Classical and Romantic styles, including Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert. The dissertation employs Schenkerian analysis to elucidate the structure of Bortkiewicz’s movements. In addition, the first movement of Mozart’s Piano Sonata K. 545, Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture, and the first movement of Schubert’s “Trout” Quintet in A, D. 667, are examined in order to illuminate the similarities and differences between the use of the subdominant recapitulation by these composers and Bortkiewicz.
