  • Erik Bergman, Cosmopolitanism and the Transformation of Musical Geography1
    Erik Bergman, Cosmopolitanism and the Transformation of Musical Geography1 Björn Heile Erik Bergman (1911-2006) was without a doubt a modernist composer. He engaged and at times battled with many of the defining musical techniques of the twentieth century, from the postromantic nationalism of his earliest works, through a brief dabbling with neoclassicism, the adoption of dodecaphony in the early 1950s, followed soon after by integral serialism and controlled aleatoricism to the experimental exploration of sound of his often austere late works. Despite this almost suspiciously neat match between individual stylistic development and the general trajectories of canonic music history, a detailed engagement with Bergman’s work troubles any whiggish textbook history of musical modernism as a linear story of innovation and progress. To be fair, such accounts no longer bear the authority once accorded to them, but what an investigation of Bergman’s work brings to light is not simply the asynchronicity and diversity of twentieth-century music history or the difficulty of establishing clear criteria for what could be considered ‘avant- gardist’, ‘progressive’, ‘mainstream’, ‘traditional’ or ‘conservative’, ‘dominant’ or ‘marginal’ at any given historical moment. Rather, what emerges most clearly is that modernism has to be thought of as a geographically as much as historically defined phenomenon. Bergman’s music engages with musical geography in at least two ways: by unambiguously embracing modernism from a position at the very periphery of modernism and European culture more widely, and by drawing on non-western traditions. In other words, Bergman’s music problematizes what the postcolonial critic Homi Bhabha has called ‘The Location of Culture’.2 In the following, after sketching relevant theoretical approaches to the cultural geography of musical modernism, I provide an account of Bergman’s career as the progressive development of a cosmopolitan vision.

  • Von Ulrich Mosch Der Komponist Erik Bergman, Dessen Geburtstag Sich
    Beiträge «Ihre Lieder sind stimmungsvoll und schön, nur …» Erik Bergmans Studien bei Heinz Tiessen zwischen 1937 und 1943 von Ulrich Mosch Der Komponist Erik Bergman, dessen Geburtstag sich am 24. November 2011 zum einhundertsten Mal jährt, gilt als Pionier der musikalischen M oderne in Finnland. Als erster Komponist seines Heimatlandes begann er in den frühen fünfziger Jahren mit den Three Fantasias für Klarinette und Klavier op. 42 (1953) auf reihentechnischer Basis Musik zu schreiben. 1954, im Alter von bald dreiundvierzig Jahren, bewogen ihn kompositorische Schwierigkeiten, in die er dabei geraten war, noch einmal die Schulbank zu drücken und seine Kenntnisse in Sachen Reihentechnik bei Wladimir Vogel in Ascona zu erweitern. Mit der damals sich vollziehenden kompositorischen Neuorientierung gelang es Bergman bald, Anschluß an die europäische Nachkriegsavantgarde zu finden, auch wenn sein Schaffen in den großen Zentren der zeitgenössischen Musik außerhalb Finnlands lange vergleichs- weise wenig zur Kenntnis genommen wurde. All das ist bekannt.1 Weniger bekannt sind Bergmans Anfänge als Komponist und insbe - sondere seine mit großen Unterbrechungen von Juni 1937 bis Sommer 1943 dauernden Studien bei Heinz Tiessen in Berlin, damals Professor für Theorie und Komposition an der Hochschule für Musik. In Verbindung mit dem Briefwechsel mit Heinz Tiessen2 gestatten Musikmanuskripte aus den Studienjahren, die aus dem Nachlaß des 2006 verstorbenen Komponisten in die Sammlung Erik Bergman der Paul Sacher Stiftung gelangten, inter- essante Einblicke in diese Zeit. Nach dem Abitur hatte Bergman in Helsinki an der Universität Musik- wissenschaft und 1931–38 am Konservatorium Komposition bei Erik F uruhjelm und Bengt Carlson und Klavier bei Ilmari Hannikainen studiert.

  • LOTTA ELEONOORA MATAMBO Submitted in Fulfilment of The
    THE SOLO PIANO MUSIC OF EINOJUHANI RAUTA V AARA by LOTTA ELEONOORA MATAMBO Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC in the DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC AND MUSICOLOGY at RHODES UNIVERSITY SUPERVISOR: DR J BRUKMAN DECEMBER 2010 EINOJUHANI RAUT AV AARA (b. 1928) [i] TITLE: The solo piano music of Einojuhani Rautavaara ABSTRACT: Einojuhani Rautavaara's oeuvre is characterised by four distinctive creative periods, each demonstrating a remarkable variety of compositional idioms and styles. His application of multifaceted elements, often within a single work leading to notions of postmodernism, is derived from multifarious sources, such as (Finnish) folklore, Orthodox mysticism and a wide variety of standard twentieth century compositional techniques. Furthermore, Rautavaara regularly quotes from his own material, thus creating elements of auto-allusions within his oeuvre; a predisposition which forms an essential part of his compositional aesthetic. Analyses of eight piano works (1952-2007) provide a cross-section of Rautavaara's output which, together with a consideration of biographical factors and analytical focus on the intertextual elements of his writing, offers a rationale for determining the development of his musical identity. The analyses conclude that intertextual elements, which appear through a diverse array of expressive modes (such as mysticism, nationalism and constructivism) are an essential part of Rautavaara's eclectic compositional style and contribute to an understanding of the on-going development of his musical identity. KEY TERMS: Musical identity; intertextuality; postmodernism; neo-classicism; expanded tonality; serialism; neo-romanticism; nationalism; mysticism; constructivism. [i i] DEDICATED to my son, Eino Mafavuke Mikael, who was born during the writing of this dissertation.

  • Finnish Choral Music by Jeffrey Sandborg
    Finnish Choral Music By Jeffrey Sandborg Jeffrey Sandborg is Assistant Professor of Music and tion is a set of twenty "Piae Cantiones" arrangements for Chairman of the Department of Music at Pikeville College, mixed chorus by Heikki Klemetti. Pikeville, Kentucky. Between 1978 and 1979 Sandborg studied in Helsinki, Finland at both the Sibelius Academy and Helsinki University as an ITT Fellow. His D.M.A. in choral music is in progress at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Finnish choral music rarely has been performed in the United States nor has much been written in the English language on the subject. The repertory remains largely unex­ amined not for lack of interest but, for lack of ready informa­ tion and materials. The Finnish language presents a for­ midable barrier to any kind of bibliographic inquiry, and ~:;fr:ff$~*lE~:[f. translations ofeven the simplest Finnish text settings nearly ==~: ~~=t=~~~::;_L3..:==::::-= 0,. 1111 llurU1/J ~ mo hgger in pr"fi1'i 0<\1 (om e'olrn are impossible for a non-speaker or for someone without ac­ (tijncr cess to a Finn. Contributing to the problem is that Finland has not been a country to propagate its music outside its borders. Further, the principal music publisher, Fazer, relies on an agent in the U.S. to advertise and distribute its publications.
