Sept Papillons, de Kaija Saariaho: Análise Musical e Aspectos da Performance. 2015. Dissertação de mestrado - Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina – UDESC. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Música, 2015. Esta dissertação apresenta uma análise musical e aborda alguns aspectos interpretativos da peça Sept Papillons (2000) para violoncelo solo, da compositora finlandesa Kaija Saariaho (1952). É apresentada uma ampla contextualização da compositora na qual abordamos sua trajetória, suas principais características composicionais, suas influências estéticas, as inter-relações entre subjetividade e fazer musical em sua obra, sua condição de gênero na música e a importância de colaborações pessoais no desenvolvimento de sua obra para violoncelo. A análise musical é precedida pela contextualização da peça, sua localização no repertório violoncelístico, suas influências e principais características. Por conta do predominante uso de harmônicos naturais uma transcrição da partitura original é apresentada. A análise musical é então realizada através da abordagem de aspectos formais e estruturais da investigação da dimensão das alturas, das dimensões rítmica, textural, tímbrica, gestual, instrumental e imagética (metafórica). São estabelecidas relações entre a construção de Sept Papillons e os processos composicionais de Saariaho. Aspectos técnicos e interpretativos da performance de Sept Papillons são abordados, em diálogo com textos de intérpretes e musicólogos (as) que trabalham com as obras da compositora e também através de cinco entrevistas realizadas com intérpretes que já apresentaram Sept Papillons em performances e gravações de alta qualidade. É observado o lugar do corpo na performance, na coordenação de sofisticadas ações instrumentais necessárias e também de que forma Saariaho expande a técnica e a escrita violoncelística. Nosso trabalho se justifica pelas contribuições oferecidas ao campo de conhecimento sobre Kaija Saariaho, sobre análise e performance do repertório contemporâneo e sobre técnica e interpretação do violoncelo. Palavras-Chave: Sept Papillons, Kaija Saariaho, Violoncelo, Análise de música contemporânea, Corpo e Performance. ABSTRACT ZERBINATTI, Camila Durães. Sept Papillons, by Kaija Saariaho: musical analysis and performance aspects. 2015. Master‘s thesis – Santa Catarina State University – UDESC. Post-Graduate Music Program. 2015. This dissertation presents a musical analysis and discusses some interpretative aspects of the piece Sept Papillons (2000) for solo cello, by the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho (1952). A broad contextualization is presented in which we approached the composer‘s history, its main compositional characteristics, its aesthetic influences, the inter-relations between subjectivity and music making in her work, her gendered position in music and the importance of personal collaborations on the developing of her cello work. Musical analysis is preceded by the context of the piece, its situation on the cello repertoire, its influences and main characteristics. Due to the predominant use of natural harmonics a transcription of the original score is displayed. Musical analysis is then presented through the approach of formal and structural aspects. Research on the pitch, rhythmic, texture, timbral, gestures, instrumental and visual (metaphorical) dimensions of the piece is presented. Relations are established between the Sept Papillons building and Saariaho´s compositional processes. Technical and interpretative aspects of Sept Papillons performance and practice are addressed in dialogue with texts by performers and musicologists that work with her works and also through five interviews with cellists who have been played Sept Papillons in high level performances and recordings. It is observed the place of the body in music performance, on the sophisticated coordination on instrumental actions necessary for the performance. It is seen that Saariaho expands both the cello technique and the cello writing. Our work is justified by the contributions made to the field of knowledge on Kaija Saariaho, on analysis and performance of the contemporary repertoire, and on cello technique and cello music. Keywords: Sept Papillons, Kaija Saariaho, Cello, Analysis of contemporary music, Body and Performance.

  • The Shaping of Time in Kaija Saariaho's Emilie
    THE SHAPING OF TIME IN KAIJA SAARIAHO’S ÉMILIE: A PERFORMER’S PERSPECTIVE Maria Mercedes Diaz Garcia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS May 2020 Committee: Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor Brent E. Archer Graduate Faculty Representative Elaine J. Colprit Nora Engebretsen-Broman © 2020 Maria Mercedes Diaz Garcia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor This document examines the ways in which Kaija Saariaho uses texture and timbre to shape time in her 2008 opera, Émilie. Building on ideas about musical time as described by Jonathan Kramer in his book The Time of Music: New Meanings, New Temporalities, New Listening Strategies (1988), such as moment time, linear time, and multiply-directed time, I identify and explain how Saariaho creates linearity and non-linearity in Émilie and address issues about timbral tension/release that are used both structurally and ornamentally. I present a conceptual framework reflecting on my performance choices that can be applied in a general approach to non-tonal music performance. This paper intends to be an aid for performers, in particular conductors, when approaching contemporary compositions where composers use the polarity between tension and release to create the perception of goal-oriented flow in the music. iv To Adeli Sarasola and Denise Zephier, with gratitude. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank the many individuals who supported me during my years at BGSU. First, thanks to Dr. Emily Freeman Brown for offering me so many invaluable opportunities to grow musically and for her detailed corrections of this dissertation.

  • Female Composer Segment Catalogue
    FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS from past to present ʻFreed from the shackles and tatters of the old tradition and prejudice, American and European women in music are now universally hailed as important factors in the concert and teaching fields and as … fast developing assets in the creative spheres of the profession.’ This affirmation was made in 1935 by Frédérique Petrides, the Belgian-born female violinist, conductor, teacher and publisher who was a pioneering advocate for women in music. Some 80 years on, it’s gratifying to note how her words have been rewarded with substance in this catalogue of music by women composers. Petrides was able to look back on the foundations laid by those who were well-connected by family name, such as Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, and survey the crop of composers active in her own time, including Louise Talma and Amy Beach in America, Rebecca Clarke and Liza Lehmann in England, Nadia Boulanger in France and Lou Koster in Luxembourg. She could hardly have foreseen, however, the creative explosion in the latter half of the 20th century generated by a whole new raft of female composers – a happy development that continues today. We hope you will enjoy exploring this catalogue that has not only historical depth but a truly international voice, as exemplified in the works of the significant number of 21st-century composers: be it the highly colourful and accessible American chamber music of Jennifer Higdon, the Asian hues of Vivian Fung’s imaginative scores, the ancient-and-modern syntheses of Sofia Gubaidulina, or the hallmark symphonic sounds of the Russian-born Alla Pavlova.

  • Broken-Continuity in Saariaho's Terra Memoria

KOAY National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan [email protected] orcid.org/ 0000-0001-7941-6559 Broken-Continuity in Saariaho’s Terra Memoria ABSTRACT Terra Memoria is a musical piece that explores timbre, dynamic and KEYWORDS texture, creating an unconventional formal design. Although discontinuity and interruption are experimented with to create a sense Kaija Saariaho of unexpected development in the music’s progress, there are various Terra Memoria means by which Saariaho unifies the composition. Throughout the piece, she explores different musical styles, new musical expressions, and 21st century music compositional techniques in her own unique way. The music shows threads of stylistic connection to conventional music of the past centuries, minimalist-like repetition, and electronic music. Vocal and operatic writing styles are also experimented with. The composition demonstrates Saariaho’s challenge to traditional notions of form, giving her her own music vocabulary. Received: July 30, 2020; Accepted: December 04, 2020 227 Kaija Saariaho (b. 1952) is a Finnish composer, whose compositions contain a very distinctive musical language and personal voice. Throughout the wide range of her output, she has had ways of organizing, building, and expressing her musical thoughts, carefully designing her music to achieve communication with her listeners. Saariaho’s music is approachable, yet rooted in a modernistic tradition. Her interesting ideas and fundamental desire for musical design and unique voice can be heard in Terra Memoria (2009) for string orchestra.
