  • Interpretation Als Kritik Pierre Boulez’ Polyphonie X Im Spiegel Seiner Aufnahmen
    Interpretation als Kritik Pierre Boulez’ Polyphonie X im Spiegel seiner Aufnahmen Von Simon Tönies Die kritische Rolle von Interpretation ist im allmählich aufblühenden Diskurs über musikalische Reproduktion bisher noch ein wenig kurz gekommen – wenn auch der spezifische Eigenwert des Wahrnehmens wie auch des Musikmachens zunehmend akzentuiert und konstruktiv in Diskurse wie etwa den der Körperlichkeit oder der Performativität eingebunden wird.1 In diesem Beitrag soll daher der Versuch unternommen werden, Interpretation emphatisch als Kritik zu verstehen, als Form ästhetischer Erkenntnis. Dass ein solcher Ansatz nicht in den empirischen Befunden aufgehen kann, die er zur Grundlage hat, sondern auch ästhetisch-philosophische Kategorien einbeziehen muss, sei einleitend gesagt. Bemerkt sei außerdem, dass der hier angewandte Kritikbegriff in Verlängerung der Linie Kant-Hegel-Marx ausdrücklich auf Theodor W. Adorno zurückgeht, dessen Fragment gebliebene Reproduktionstheorie wohl als Ausgangspunkt einer Akzentuierung des kritischen Potenzials von Interpretationen gelten darf. Zwei Interpretationen eines Werks der seriellen Phase sollen in diesem Sinne gegenübergestellt werden. Exemplarisch herangezogen sei dafür das 1951 in Donaueschingen uraufgeführte und später zurückgezogene Stück Polyphonie X von Pierre Boulez. Dass das Signifikant, also die in der Baseler Sacher-Stiftung verwahrte Partitur, Bezugspunkt bleibt und Abweichungen von dieser dokumentiert werden, ist kein Widerspruch zu einer gleichzeitig angenommenen Autonomie der Interpretation:

Editore: Universal Edition (UE 18407) Elettronica realizzata presso l'IRCAM, Parigi Assistente musicale: Andrew Gerzso Prima rappresentazione: Alains Damies (28 Ottobre 1985, Firenze) Esecutori 1x clarinettista 1x regia del suono Strumentazione - clarinetto in Sib - musica pre registrata (clarinetto in Sib) - sistema di diffusione del suono (7 canali + postazione clarinetto + ausiliari) - pianoforte a coda (per effetti) Introduzione Composta nel 1985, con dedica a Luciano Berio "per il suo sessantesimo compleanno", Dialogue de l'ombre double è una composizione elettroacustica atipica, considerando che di fatto è costituita da uno strumento acustico dal vivo e dal medesimo strumento acustico in forma registrata, dove l'elaborazione del suono si limita a un trattamento di riverberazione realizzato mediante l'uso della risonanza naturale di un pianoforte, pertanto un trattamento considerabile "quasi acustico". Il vero e proprio intervento elettronico è invece legato alla diffusione spazializzata del suono su 7 canali, meticolosamente predeterminata in partitura, e al trattamento in fase di editing della parte registrata, che prevede differenti tipologie di registrazione per simulare diverse distanze dello strumento rispetto agli ascoltatori.

Different approaches are represented in the ways the individual pieces refer to existing music, ranging from literal quotations to stylistic allusions.

Wanting to appropriately celebrate and honor his life's work a.pe.ri.od.ic presents a three-day festival featuring repertoire spanning over 50 years of the composer’s output. The festival includes five concerts of John Cage’s repertoire for toy piano, percussion ensemble, vocal ensemble, string quartet, piano, duos, and multimedia arts. These works exhibit Cage’s micro-macroscopic rhythmic structure, a smattering of indeterminacy, his collaborative endeavors, three of his late Number Pieces, and a lecture on the John Cage Collection examining pieces presented on the festival. John Cage lived in Chicago early on in his career, teaching at the Chicago Institute of Design and accompanying dance classes at the University of Chicago.

  • Ana Rebrina Relation of Structure, Form and Perception in Post-Tonal
    Ana Rebrina Relation of Structure, Form and Perception in Post-Tonal Music Analysis of Compositions by Pierre Boulez, Jean Barraqué, Karel Goeyvaerts and Michel Fano Exposé for a Doctoral Dissertation Department of Historical Musicology, Music Theory and Church Music Studies Kunstuniversität Graz February 2019 Abstract This research explores the relation between the score, performance, and perception of post- tonal music. The focus is on performer’s actions and on perceptual consequences of these actions for the listener. The corpus of the study includes compositions associated with the Darmstadt Summer Course, all composed at a similar time and in comparable circumstances: three piano sonatas by Pierre Boulez, Piano Sonata by Jean Barraqué, Sonata for Two Pianos by Karel Goeyvaerts and Sonata for Two Pianos by Michel Fano. Since the serial organization of material is hardly manifested in sound realization in these complex post-tonal compositions, surface details are important for the perception. One of the objectives of this research is to determine auditory detectable details of musical surface and compare them in different performances. Since post-tonal music is often presented as inaccessible, speaking to only a narrow circle of listeners, the aim is to find possible approaches to comprehensive listening of post-tonal music through the perception of auditory details and their connection with formal sections. In addition, the aim is to discover whether performance analysis can assist music pedagogy in the deeper understanding of post-tonal music. For this purpose, the selected repertoire will be analyzed on several levels: traditional analysis of material organization and serial procedures based on sketches and pre-existing studies, historical background of compositions and recordings, structural analysis and performance analysis based on a comparison of selected parameters in different recordings, morphosyntactic analysis as an attempt to capture the details on the musical surface.

L’exposition « Pierre Boulez » veut d’ouverture du nouvel établissement, notre volonté rendre compte d’un enchevêtrement de courants et a été de marquer cette date par un évènement de pratiques artistiques qu’il a lui-même impulsés plus ambitieux, destiné à transmettre au public la ou dont il s’est inspiré : s’intéressant très tôt à la complexité et la diversité du parcours de l’artiste. Car peinture ou la littérature, il n’a eu de cesse de Boulez ne s’est pas contenté d’être le compositeur convoquer ces arts dans son œuvre ; homme de que l’on connaît, mais a tout de suite perçu combien scène, il a toujours maintenu un lien étroit avec le le travail d’interprétation et de transmission terrain du concert ou de l’opéra, par la direction répondait à une nécessité : celle d’inscrire l’œuvre d’orchestre et la proximité avec des musiciens ou musicale dans l’histoire, en donnant à entendre au metteurs en scène ; pédagogue hors-pair, il n’a public aussi bien les chefs d’œuvre de la modernité pas formé de disciple mais suscité l’appétence que la toute jeune création.

  • Published Mark Schemes for GCE A2 Music January 2010
    Published Mark Schemes for GCE A2 Music January 2010 Issued: April 2010 NORTHERN IRELAND GENERAL CERTIFICATE OF SECONDARY EDUCATION (GCSE) AND NORTHERN IRELAND GENERAL CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION (GCE) MARK SCHEMES (2010) Foreword Introduction Mark Schemes are published to assist teachers and students in their preparation for examinations. Through the mark schemes teachers and students will be able to see what examiners are looking for in response to questions and exactly where the marks have been awarded. The publishing of the mark schemes may help to show that examiners are not concerned about finding out what a student does not know but rather with rewarding students for what they do know. The Purpose of Mark Schemes Examination papers are set and revised by teams of examiners and revisers appointed by the Council. The teams of examiners and revisers include experienced teachers who are familiar with the level and standards expected of 16- and 18-year-old students in schools and colleges. The job of the examiners is to set the questions and the mark schemes; and the job of the revisers is to review the questions and mark schemes commenting on a large range of issues about which they must be satisfied before the question papers and mark schemes are finalised. The questions and the mark schemes are developed in association with each other so that the issues of differentiation and positive achievement can be addressed right from the start. Mark schemes therefore are regarded as a part of an integral process which begins with the setting of questions and ends with the marking of the examination.
