  • Sonata for Flute and Piano in D Major, Op. 94 by Sergey Prokofiev
    SONATA FOR FLUTE AND PIANO IN D MAJOR, OP. 94 BY SERGEY PROKOFIEV: A PERFORMANCE GUIDE HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors Committee of Texas State University-San Marcos in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation in the Honors ColLege by Danielle Emily Stevens San Marcos, Texas May 2014 1 SONATA FOR FLUTE AND PIANO IN D MAJOR, OP. 94 BY SERGEY PROKOFIEV: A PERFORMANCE GUIDE Thesis Supervisor: ________________________________ Kay Lipton, Ph.D. School of Music Second Reader: __________________________________ Adah Toland Jones, D. A. School of Music Second Reader: __________________________________ Cynthia GonzaLes, Ph.D. School of Music Approved: ____________________________________ Heather C. GaLLoway, Ph.D. Dean, Honors ColLege 2 Abstract This thesis contains a performance guide for Sergey Prokofiev’s Sonata for Flute and Piano in D Major, Op. 94 (1943). Prokofiev is among the most important Russian composers of the twentieth century. Recognized as a leading Neoclassicist, his bold innovations in harmony and his new palette of tone colors enliven the classical structures he embraced. This is especially evident in this flute sonata, which provides a microcosm of Prokofiev’s compositional style and highlights the beauty and virtuosic breadth of the flute in new ways. In Part 1 I have constructed an historical context for the sonata, with biographical information about Prokofiev, which includes anecdotes about his personality and behavior, and a discussion of the sonata’s commission and subsequent premiere. In Part 2 I offer an anaLysis of the piece with generaL performance suggestions and specific performance practice options for flutists that will assist them as they work toward an effective performance, one that is based on both the historically informed performance context, as well as remarks that focus on particular techniques, challenges and possible performance solutions.

From 1870 to 1934 he was the organist of St. Sulpice in Paris, and was professor of organ at the Paris Conservatoire, following in the footsteps of Cesar Franck. He was, however, a prolific composer, his output including three operas, symphonies, concertos, chamber music, piano solos and songs. Of his chamber works, perhaps one of his finest pieces is this Suite for Flute and Piano, Op. 34. Widor composed the Suite in 1877 (although it was not published until 1898) for Paul Taffanel (1844-1908), a fellow professor at the Conservatoire and a fine, highly influential flautist who developed many technical aspects of flute playing to the extent that France became the acknowledged centre of the flute in Europe.

  • An Analysis of Twentieth-Century Flute Sonatas by Ikuma Dan, Hikaru
    Flute Repertoire from Japan: An Analysis of Twentieth-Century Flute Sonatas by Ikuma Dan, Hikaru Hayashi, and Akira Tamba D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Daniel Ryan Gallagher, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2019 D.M.A. Document Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Dr. Arved Ashby Dr. Caroline Hartig Professor Karen Pierson 1 Copyrighted by Daniel Ryan Gallagher 2019 2 Abstract Despite the significant number of compositions by influential Japanese composers, Japanese flute repertoire remains largely unknown outside of Japan. Apart from standard unaccompanied works by Tōru Takemitsu and Kazuo Fukushima, other Japanese flute compositions have yet to establish a permanent place in the standard flute repertoire. The purpose of this document is to broaden awareness of Japanese flute compositions through the discussion, analysis, and evaluation of substantial flute sonatas by three important Japanese composers: Ikuma Dan (1924-2001), Hikaru Hayashi (1931- 2012), and Akira Tamba (b. 1932). A brief history of traditional Japanese flute music, a summary of Western influences in Japan’s musical development, and an overview of major Japanese flute compositions are included to provide historical and musical context for the composers and works in this document. Discussions on each composer’s background, flute works, and compositional style inform the following flute sonata analyses, which reveal the unique musical language and characteristics that qualify each work for inclusion in the standard flute repertoire. These analyses intend to increase awareness and performance of other Japanese flute compositions specifically and lesser- known repertoire generally.

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links.

  • JS Bach's Flute Sonata in a Major, BWV 1032
    J. S. Bach’s Flute Sonata in A Major, BWV 1032: Reconstructing the Fragmentary First Movement Bach’s A-major flute sonata has long been the object of reconstructors seeking to fill the lacuna left when a portion of the first movement was cut away from its sole primary source. A flurry of writings on the subject appeared in the 1980s, probably spurred by the new edition of the work published within the Neue Bach-Ausgabe; among these were two articles by Michael Marissen that made it appear that an “authentic reconstruction” of the first movement is within our grasp.1 By an “authentic” reconstruction Marissen meant one that takes into account all surviving clues as to the nature of the missing music while reducing to a minimum the amount of freshly composed music that must be supplied. As Marissen showed, practically no new music is necessary. The present score, although slightly emended in 2015, is essentially identical to one that I prepared in 1994 and published online about ten years later. That score incorporated suggestions from Marissen’s articles, although it had originated in an earlier reconstruction first drafted while I was still in college. The present notes offer addenda to Marissen’s discussion and explain how the accompanying score differs from the reconstruction described in his articles. First, as Marissen established, the sonata must have been a keyboard-obbligato arrangement of an earlier work in trio-sonata scoring. But, as in the case of other arrangements that Bach prepared from now-lost earlier works—including most or all of the harpsichord concertos, and perhaps all of the other obbligato-keyboard sonatas—the extent of Bach’s active revision while making the arrangement is by no means clear, and thus the original version of the work cannot be reconstructed.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: COMPOSITIONS for FLUTE BY
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: COMPOSITIONS FOR FLUTE BY AMERICAN STUDENTS OF NADIA BOULANGER Jessica Guinn Dunnavant, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor William Montgomery School of Music Throughout the twen tieth century, young American composers made a pilgrimage across the Atlantic Ocean to study their craft with Nadia Boulanger (1887- 1979). Many of them wrote substantial, interesting works for flute, and this dissertation focuses on performances of a selection of those compositions. Boulanger’s life is well documented, as is her reputation for helping her students find their own musical voices. In this project she serves as a lens through which three generations of American composers may be viewed. This to pic brings together a wide variety of flute music in almost every style imaginable. A selection of music to perform was made because the amount of music far exceeds the amount of available performance time. A list of Nadia Boulanger’s American students was primarily derived from the website nadiaboulanger.org and from composers listed in the two editions of the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. These lists are far from comprehensive and other notable flute composers have been added. The followin g is an alphabetical list of the works that were performed: Alexander’s Monody, Amlin’s Sonata , Bassett’s Illuminations, Berlinski’s Sonata , Carter’s Scrivo in Vento , Cooper’s Sonata , Copland’s Duo, Dahl’s Variations on a Swedish Folktune, Diamond’s Sonata , Erb’s Music for Mother Bear, Finney’s Two Ballades , Glass’s Serenade, Kraft’s A Single Voice , La Montaine’s Sonata , Lewis’s Monophony I, Mekeel’s The Shape of Silence , Piston’s Sonata , Pasatieri’s Sonata , Rorem’s Mountain Song, and Thomson’s Sonata .
