Terry Riley, La Monte Young, Steve Reich et Philip Glass, tous américains, sont considérés comme les pionniers de ce courant. Si beaucoup de ces compositeurs contestent l’étiquette minimaliste, réductrice à leurs yeux, leur approche se rejoint dans la recherche de nouvelles structures musicales, comme l’emploi de motifs répétitifs, une certaine forme de dépouillement et l’emploi de certains procédés spécifiques (la technique de « phasing » de Reich, utilisant simultanément des enregistrements avec un léger décalage). Les minimalistes ont intégré de nombreuses influences pour nourrir leur travail, le jazz et l’improvisation pour Terry Riley, la mouvance expérimentale pour La Monte Young, la musique indienne pour Philip Glass, les cultures africaines pour Steve Reich.

  • Tonality and Form in Selected French Piano Sonatas: 1900-1950
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Scottish M Usic Review
    w e i v e r Voicing Pierrot c i My Personal Journey s u Jane Manning m h October 7, 2016 s i t t To say that Pierrot Lunaire has been crucial to my career would be an understatement. It’s the o single work that has most influenced my development, shaped my attitudes to rehearsing andper- c s forming, and taught me about the way the voice works. It featured in my first BBC ‘live’ broadcast in 1965 and I’ve derived endless inspiration and joy from performing it at regular intervals, with many different ensembles in many countries, in a rich variety of situations. My earliest experiences were, inevitably, self-centred. I actively avoided hearing other performances for many years, feeling vulnerable, and fearful of having my confidence undermined, or, worse, of lapsing into unconscious imitation. But in recent years I’ve found it stimulating and beneficial to hear and imbibe others’ performances. My repertoire has, meanwhile, expanded to encompass many other substantial and challenging twentieth century pieces. It’s been helpful to get to know more of Schoenberg’s own life, and to be able to place the work in a wider context. This process of collating and assimilating information and influences is of course never-ending. Even taking time to muse and cogitate can yield sudden unexpected flashes of insight and new perspectives. Artistic instincts have always to be kept sharpened, ready to embrace the flood of new ideas that occur with virtually every reading of this extraordinary work. The re-discovery and commercial release, in 2005, on Regis/Forum of one of my very earliest performances could not help but evoke a mood of especially piquant personal reminiscence.

  • O Contato De Luciano Berio Com Intérpretes Flautistas E a Composição Da Sequenza I, Para Flauta Solo
    Colaboração intérprete-compositor: o contato de Luciano Berio com intérpretes flautistas e a composição da Sequenza I, para flauta solo Cibele Palopoli1 Universidade de São Paulo / Mestrado em Música SIMPOM: Linguagem e Estruturação/Teoria [email protected] Resumo: O presente artigo aborda o relacionamento intérprete-compositor, com foco na colaboração na composição de uma obra musical específica, a Sequenza I (1958), para flauta solo, do compositor italiano Luciano Berio (1925-2003). Berio manteve, ao longo de sua carreira, contato com músicos específicos de diversos instrumentos, fato comprovado pela série de Sequenze, dedicada e motivada por características técnico-musicais de intérpretes específicos. Nesse contexto, a Sequenza I foi elaborada, sobretudo a partir da colaboração do flautista Severino Gazzelloni (1919-1992), conterrâneo e amigo pessoal de Berio. O presente trabalho objetiva introduzir o leitor às correspondências dos intérpretes flautistas Severino Gazzelloni e Aurèle Nicolet a Luciano Berio, consultadas, transcritas e traduzidas na pesquisa de mestrado realizada pela autora a partir de manuscritos situados na Fundação Paul Sacher (Basileia, Suíça) 2 . Posteriormente, dialogando com as ideias apresentadas por Mark McGregor em Severino Gazzelloni and the music of Berio and Fukushima (2012), evidenciamos as principais passagens da peça em que é notória a influência de Gazzelloni na escritura da Sequenza I por Berio, tais como a exploração de técnicas estendidas para flauta, incluindo o uso de trêmulos com intervalos diversos, cliques de chave e multifônicos. Na conclusão, ressaltamos os reflexos do contato de Luciano Berio com intérpretes flautistas na composição da obra em questão, onde há pleno domínio da escrita instrumental, evidenciado pela exploração das possibilidades do instrumento em uma escrita extremamente idiomática e perfeitamente executável.
