  • Uniting Commedia Dell'arte Traditions with the Spieltenor Repertoire
    UNITING COMMEDIA DELL’ARTE TRADITIONS WITH THE SPIELTENOR REPERTOIRE Corey Trahan, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2012 APPROVED: Stephen Austin, Major Professor Paula Homer, Committee Member Lynn Eustis, Committee Member and Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James Scott, Dean of the School of Music James R. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Trahan, Corey, Uniting Commedia dell’Arte Traditions with the Spieltenor repertoire. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2012, 85 pp., 6 tables, 35 illustrations, references, 84 titles. Sixteenth century commedia dell’arte actors relied on gaudy costumes, physical humor and improvisation to entertain audiences. The spieltenor in the modern operatic repertoire has a similar comedic role. Would today’s spieltenor benefit from consulting the commedia dell’arte’s traditions? To answer this question, I examine the commedia dell’arte’s history, stock characters and performance traditions of early troupes. The spieltenor is discussed in terms of vocal pedagogy and the fach system. I reference critical studies of the commedia dell’arte, sources on improvisatory acting, articles on theatrical masks and costuming, the commedia dell’arte as depicted by visual artists, commedia dell’arte techniques of movement, stances and postures. In addition, I cite vocal pedagogy articles, operatic repertoire and sources on the fach system. My findings suggest that a valid relationship exists between the commedia dell’arte stock characters and the spieltenor roles in the operatic repertoire. I present five case studies, pairing five stock characters with five spieltenor roles.

  • Influence of Commedia Dell‟Arte on Stravinsky‟S Suite Italienne D.M.A
    Influence of Commedia dell‟Arte on Stravinsky‟s Suite Italienne D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctor of Musical Arts In the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sachiho Cynthia Murasugi, B.M., M.A., M.B.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2009 Document Committee: Kia-Hui Tan, Advisor Paul Robinson Mark Rudoff Copyright by Sachiho Cynthia Murasugi 2009 Abstract Suite Italienne for violin and piano (1934) by Stravinsky is a compelling and dynamic work that is heard in recitals and on recordings. It is based on Stravinsky‟s music for Pulcinella (1920), a ballet named after a 16th century Neapolitan stock character. The purpose of this document is to examine, through the discussion of the history and characteristics of Commedia dell‟Arte ways in which this theatre genre influenced Stravinsky‟s choice of music and compositional techniques when writing Pulcinella and Suite Italienne. In conclusion the document proposes ways in which the violinist can incorporate the elements of Commedia dell‟Arte that Stravinsky utilizes in order to give a convincing and stylistic performance. ii Acknowledgments I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Kia-Hui Tan and my committee members, Dr. Paul Robinson, Prof. Mark Rudoff, and Dr. Jon Woods. I also would like to acknowledge the generous assistance of my first advisor, the late Prof. Michael Davis. iii Vita 1986………………………………………….B.M., Manhattan School of Music 1988-1989……………………………….…..Visiting International Student, Utrecht Conservatorium 1994………………………………………….M.A., CUNY, Queens College 1994-1995……………………………………NEA Rural Residency Grant 1995-1996……………………………………Section violin, Louisiana Philharmonic 1998………………………………………….M.B.A., Tulane University 1998-2008……………………………………Part-time instructor, freelance violinist 2001………………………………………….Nebraska Arts Council Touring Artists Roster 2008 to present………………………………Lecturer in Music, Salisbury University Publications “Stravinsky‟s Suite Italienne Unmasked.” Stringendo 25.4 (2009):19.
