Deposit guide Contact: email “What can’t be coded can be decorded” Reading Writing Performing Finnegans Wake Oliver Rory Thomas Evans Phd Thesis School of Arts, Birkbeck College, University of London (2016) 2 3 This thesis examines the ways in which performances of James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake (1939) navigate the boundary between reading and writing. I consider the extent to which performances enact alternative readings of Finnegans Wake, challenging notions of competence and understanding; and by viewing performance as a form of writing I ask whether Joyce’s composition process can be remembered by its recomposition into new performances. These perspectives raise questions about authority and archivisation, and I argue that performances of Finnegans Wake challenge hierarchical and institutional forms of interpretation. By appropriating Joyce’s text through different methodologies of reading and writing I argue that these performances come into contact with a community of ghosts and traces which haunt its composition. In chapter one I argue that performance played an important role in the composition and early critical reception of Finnegans Wake and conduct an overview of various performances which challenge the notion of a ‘Joycean competence’ or encounter the text through radical recompositions of its material.

  • Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America
    CRUMP, MELANIE AUSTIN. D.M.A. When Words Are Not Enough: Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America. (2008) Directed by Mr. David Holley, 93 pp. Although multiple books and articles expound upon the musical culture and progress of American classical, popular and folk music in the United States, there are no publications that investigate the development of extended vocal techniques (EVTs) throughout twentieth-century American music. Scholarly interest in the contemporary music scene of the United States abounds, but few sources provide information on the exploitation of the human voice for its unique sonic capabilities. This document seeks to establish links and connections between musical trends, major artistic movements, and the global politics that shaped Western art music, with those composers utilizing EVTs in the United States, for the purpose of generating a clearer musicological picture of EVTs as a practice of twentieth-century vocal music. As demonstrated in the connecting of musicological dots found in primary and secondary historical documents, composer and performer studies, and musical scores, the study explores the history of extended vocal techniques and the culture in which they flourished. WHEN WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH: TRACING THE DEVELOPMENT OF EXTENDED VOCAL TECHNIQUES IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICA by Melanie Austin Crump A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The Graduate School at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Greensboro 2008 Approved by ___________________________________ Committee Chair To Dr. Robert Wells, Mr. Randall Outland and my husband, Scott Watson Crump ii APPROVAL PAGE This dissertation has been approved by the following committee of the Faculty of The School of Music at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

  • Introduction to the Modern Calculus of Variations
    MA4G6 Lecture Notes Introduction to the Modern Calculus of Variations Filip Rindler Spring Term 2015 Filip Rindler Mathematics Institute University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7AL United Kingdom [email protected] http://www.warwick.ac.uk/filiprindler Copyright ©2015 Filip Rindler. Version 1.1. Preface These lecture notes, written for the MA4G6 Calculus of Variations course at the University of Warwick, intend to give a modern introduction to the Calculus of Variations. I have tried to cover different aspects of the field and to explain how they fit into the “big picture”. This is not an encyclopedic work; many important results are omitted and sometimes I only present a special case of a more general theorem. I have, however, tried to strike a balance between a pure introduction and a text that can be used for later revision of forgotten material. The presentation is based around a few principles: • The presentation is quite “modern” in that I use several techniques which are perhaps not usually found in an introductory text or that have only recently been developed. • For most results, I try to use “reasonable” assumptions, not necessarily minimal ones. • When presented with a choice of how to prove a result, I have usually preferred the (in my opinion) most conceptually clear approach over more “elementary” ones. For example, I use Young measures in many instances, even though this comes at the expense of a higher initial burden of abstract theory. • Wherever possible, I first present an abstract result for general functionals defined on Banach spaces to illustrate the general structure of a certain result.

  • 4' 33'': John Cage's Utopia of Music
    STUDIA HUMANISTYCZNE AGH Tom 15/2 • 2016 http://dx.doi.org/10.7494/human.2016.15.2.17 Michał Palmowski* Jagiellonian University in Krakow 4’ 33’’: JOHN CAGE’S UTOPIA OF MUSIC The present article examines the connection between Cage’s politics and aesthetics, demonstrating how his formal experiments are informed by his political and social views. In 4’33’’, which is probably the best il- lustration of Cage’s radical aesthetics, Cage wanted his listeners to appreciate the beauty of accidental noises, which, as he claims elsewhere, “had been dis-criminated against” (Cage 1961d: 109). His egalitarian stance is also refl ected in his views on the function of the listener. He wants to empower his listeners, thus blurring the distinction between the performer and the audience. In 4’33’’ the composer forbidding the performer to impose any sounds on the audience gives the audience the freedom to rediscover the natural music of the world. I am arguing that in his experiments Cage was motivated not by the desire for formal novelty but by the utopian desire to make the world a better place to live. He described his music as “an affi rmation of life – not an at- tempt to bring order out of chaos nor to suggest improvements in creation, but simply a way of waking up to the very life we’re living, which is so excellent once one gets one’s mind and desires out of its way and lets it act of its own accord” (Cage 1961b: 12). Keywords: John Cage, utopia, poethics, silence, noise The present article is a discussion of the ideas informing the radical aesthetics of John Cage’s musical compositions.

  • John Cage's Entanglement with the Ideas Of
    JOHN CAGE’S ENTANGLEMENT WITH THE IDEAS OF COOMARASWAMY Edward James Crooks PhD University of York Music July 2011 John Cage’s Entanglement with the Ideas of Coomaraswamy by Edward Crooks Abstract The American composer John Cage was famous for the expansiveness of his thought. In particular, his borrowings from ‘Oriental philosophy’ have directed the critical and popular reception of his works. But what is the reality of such claims? In the twenty years since his death, Cage scholars have started to discover the significant gap between Cage’s presentation of theories he claimed he borrowed from India, China, and Japan, and the presentation of the same theories in the sources he referenced. The present study delves into the circumstances and contexts of Cage’s Asian influences, specifically as related to Cage’s borrowings from the British-Ceylonese art historian and metaphysician Ananda K. Coomaraswamy. In addition, Cage’s friendship with the Jungian mythologist Joseph Campbell is detailed, as are Cage’s borrowings from the theories of Jung. Particular attention is paid to the conservative ideology integral to the theories of all three thinkers. After a new analysis of the life and work of Coomaraswamy, the investigation focuses on the metaphysics of Coomaraswamy’s philosophy of art. The phrase ‘art is the imitation of nature in her manner of operation’ opens the doors to a wide- ranging exploration of the mimesis of intelligible and sensible forms. Comparing Coomaraswamy’s ‘Traditional’ idealism to Cage’s radical epistemological realism demonstrates the extent of the lack of congruity between the two thinkers. In a second chapter on Coomaraswamy, the extent of the differences between Cage and Coomaraswamy are revealed through investigating their differing approaches to rasa , the Renaissance, tradition, ‘art and life’, and museums.

  • A Clear Apparance
    A Clear Apparence 1 People in the UK whose music I like at the moment - (a personal view) by Tim Parkinson I like this quote from Feldman which I found in Michael Nyman's Experimental Music: Cage and Beyond; Anybody who was around in the early fifties with the painters saw that these men had started to explore their own sensibilities, their own plastic language...with that complete independence from other art, that complete inner security to work with what was unknown to them. To me, this characterises the music I'm experiencing by various composers I know working in Britain at the moment. Independence of mind. Independence from schools or academies. And certainly an inner security to be individual, a confidence to pursue one's own interests, follow one's own nose. I donʼt like categories. Iʼm not happy to call this music anything. Any category breaks down under closer scrutiny. Post-Cage? Experimental? Post-experimental? Applies more to some than others. Ultimately I prefer to leave that to someone else. No name seems all-encompassing and satisfying. So Iʼm going to describe the work of six composers in Britain at the moment whose music I like. To me itʼs just that: music that I like. And why I like it is a question for self-analysis, rather than joining the stylistic or aesthetic dots. And only six because itʼs impossible to be comprehensive. How can I be? Thereʼs so much good music out there, and of course there are always things I donʼt know. So this is a personal view.

  • A Performer's Guide to the Prepared Piano of John Cage
    A Performer’s Guide to the Prepared Piano of John Cage: The 1930s to 1950s. A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Keyboard Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music By Sejeong Jeong B.M., Sookmyung Women’s University, 2011 M.M., Illinois State University, 2014 ________________________________ Committee Chair : Jeongwon Joe, Ph. D. ________________________________ Reader : Awadagin K.A. Pratt ________________________________ Reader : Christopher Segall, Ph. D. ABSTRACT John Cage is one of the most prominent American avant-garde composers of the twentieth century. As the first true pioneer of the “prepared piano,” Cage’s works challenge pianists with unconventional performance practices. In addition, his extended compositional techniques, such as chance operation and graphic notation, can be demanding for performers. The purpose of this study is to provide a performer’s guide for four prepared piano works from different points in the composer’s career: Bacchanale (1938), The Perilous Night (1944), 34'46.776" and 31'57.9864" For a Pianist (1954). This document will detail the concept of the prepared piano as defined by Cage and suggest an approach to these prepared piano works from the perspective of a performer. This document will examine Cage’s musical and philosophical influences from the 1930s to 1950s and identify the relationship between his own musical philosophy and prepared piano works. The study will also cover challenges and performance issues of prepared piano and will provide suggestions and solutions through performance interpretations.

  • Reading & Listening Guide: John Cage and Experimental Music
    John Cage and Experimental Music If asked to name one person who has been the most important influence on avant-garde music in the last half of the 20 th century, our answer unquestionably would be “John Cage.” Cage’s originality and ideas will resonate throughout our entire course. In this lesson we listen to a few pieces that illustrate various stages in his musical development. 1. Read the Wikipedia article about John Cage. You will need information in this article to help answer many of the questions in this lesson. • With what famous composer did Cage study? What vow did Cage make that convinced the composer to give the lessons for free? Why did Cage eventually quit? • Why was his stint at the Cornish School of the Arts in Seattle important to him? What did he accomplish there? What musical instrument did he invent? • What kind of crisis did Cage experience in the mid-1940s? What did he turn to and how did this influence the Sonatas and Interludes , some of which you will listen to for this assignment. • What did Cage discover in the 1950s that had a major influence on his compositional methods? In the early 1950s, what became Cage’s standard tool for composition and how did he use it? • Among other things, Cage composed several “Variations” pieces in the late 1950s and 1960s. The Wikipedia article says that these were in fact “happenings,” an art form that Cage and his students had established earlier. What are happenings? Why are they more than merely musical compositions? • Cages “Experimental Composition” classes in New York inspired the Fluxus movement.

  • German in Finnegans Wake Contextualized Helmut Bonheim’S a Lexicon of the German in Finnegans Wake
    Joyce Lexicography Volume Thirty-Five German in Finnegans Wake Contextualized Helmut Bonheim’s A Lexicon of the German in Finnegans Wake Edited by FW Episodes C. George Sandulescu Sixteen and Seventeen Redacted by Lidia Vianu Bucureşti 2013 Press Release German in Finnegans Wake Contextualized. Helmut Bonheim’s A Lexicon of the German in Finnegans Wake. Edited by C. George Sandulescu Redacted by Lidia Vianu In six volumes: ISBN 978-606-8366-57-9; 978-606-8366-59-3; 978-606-8366-60-9; 978-606-8366-58-6; 978-606-8366-61-6; 978-606-8366-62-3 Joyce spoke German fluently. He made his family speak German while they lived in Zurich, and his children even went to school there. His grave is in Zurich too. The 17 years he put into the writing of the 17 chapters of Finnegans Wake made use of almost 4,000 German words and phrases; we learn this from Helmut Bonheim’s A Lexicon of the German in Finnegans Wake, which the Contemporary Literature Press is now re-issuing. This new edition of Bonheim’s Lexicon tags the full FW text to his list. The author himself discussed in his Preface the importance of the larger context for anyone who tries to understand how and why Joyce turned to German. Following his idea, this re-issuing of the German Lexicon of FW offers the reader both a German key and an additional means of understanding Joyce’s last and most difficult book . It is difficult to see how it is possible to make a reader feel he is reading a text in over forty languages more or less at the same time.
