YÜZYILDAN GÜNÜMÜZE TARİHSEL GELİŞİMİ VE BU TEKNİKLERİN NOTASYONU Rohat CEBE ÖZ Müzisyenler, 20. yüzyılın başlarından itibaren çalgısal tekniklerin ve yeni ses kaynaklarının gelişmesinde başka hiçbir müzik tarihi döneminde olmadığı kadar önemli bir rol oynamaya başlamışlardır. Müzik besteci tarafından yazılır. Besteci yaratıcılığını, imkanlar çerçevesinde kullanacağı çalgı ya da çalgı gruplarının teknik ve fiziksel özelliklerini dikkate alarak neticelendirir. Bu bir gereksinimdir. Bu gereksinim 20. yüzyılın başlarında kültürel, siyasal ve teknolojik gelişmeler paralelinde en hareketli ve bekli de en yaratıcı seviyelere ulaşmıştır. Çalgısal tekniklerin ve yeni ses kaynaklarının gelişimi, yeni yazım ve çalım tekniklerini de beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu dönemde yaşayan besteciler eserlerinde çalgılardan o ana kadar var olan tınıların dışında farklı tınılar ve renkler elde etme arayışına girmiş, bir grup besteci de geçmişten gelen mirası ret ederek elektronik tekniklerle geliştirilmiş yeni çalgıların yapımına ve bu çalgılardan farklı sesler elde etme çabasına girmişlerdir. Yeni çalgılar yaratma fikri bir yana var olan çalgılardan yeni tınılar elde etme çabası, beraberinde klasik notalamadan farklı bir notalama biçiminin ortaya çıkmasına sebebiyet vermiştir. Bu dönemde, yeniyi arama ve bulunan yenilikleri uygulama sadece besteciler tarafından değil aynı zamanda birçok solist çalgıcının kendi çalgısının ses kabiliyetini belirleme ve keşfetmesiyle de en yüksek seviyelerine ulaşmıştır. Bu makale; başta insan sesindeki gelişmeler olmak üzere, vurmalı çalgılar, piyano ve arp çalgılarındaki yeni çalım tekniklerini, eser örnekleri ve yeni yazım tekniklerinin notalanması da gösterilerek, 20. yüzyılın ilk çeyreğinden başlayıp günümüze kadar gelen süreç içerisindeki gelişmeleri incelenmeye çalışılmıştır.

  • A Handbook of Cello Technique for Performers
    CELLO MAP: A HANDBOOK OF CELLO TECHNIQUE FOR PERFORMERS AND COMPOSERS By Ellen Fallowfield A Thesis Submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Music College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham October 2009 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Many new sounds and new instrumental techniques have been introduced into music literature since 1950. The popular approach to support developments in modern instrumental technique is the catalogue or notation guide, which has led to isolated special effects. Several authors of handbooks of technique have pointed to an alternative, strategic, scientific approach to technique as an ideological ideal. I have adopted this approach more fully than before and applied it to the cello for the first time. This handbook provides a structure for further research. In this handbook, new techniques are presented alongside traditional methods and a ‘global technique’ is defined, within which every possible sound-modifying action is considered as a continuous scale, upon which as yet undiscovered techniques can also be slotted.

  • Multiphonics of the Grand Piano – Timbral Composition and Performance with Flageolets
    Multiphonics of the Grand Piano – Timbral Composition and Performance with Flageolets Juhani VESIKKALA Written work, Composition MA Department of Classical Music Sibelius Academy / University of the Arts, Helsinki 2016 SIBELIUS-ACADEMY Abstract Kirjallinen työ Title Number of pages Multiphonics of the Grand Piano - Timbral Composition and Performance with Flageolets 86 + appendices Author(s) Term Juhani Topias VESIKKALA Spring 2016 Degree programme Study Line Sävellys ja musiikinteoria Department Klassisen musiikin osasto Abstract The aim of my study is to enable a broader knowledge and compositional use of the piano multiphonics in current music. This corpus of text will benefit pianists and composers alike, and it provides the answers to the questions "what is a piano multiphonic", "what does a multiphonic sound like," and "how to notate a multiphonic sound". New terminology will be defined and inaccuracies in existing terminology will be dealt with. The multiphonic "mode of playing" will be separated from "playing technique" and from flageolets. Moreover, multiphonics in the repertoire are compared from the aspects of composition and notation, and the portability of multiphonics to the sounds of other instruments or to other mobile playing modes of the manipulated grand piano are examined. Composers tend to use multiphonics in a different manner, making for differing notational choices. This study examines notational choices and proposes a notation suitable for most situations, and notates the most commonly produceable multiphonic chords. The existence of piano multiphonics will be verified mathematically, supported by acoustic recordings and camera measurements. In my work, the correspondence of FFT analysis and hearing will be touched on, and by virtue of audio excerpts I offer ways to improve as a listener of multiphonics.

  • 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.

  • CORRECTIONS for Paul Mcguire
    Composing with an Expanded Instrumental Palette by Paul McGuire A portfolio of musical compositions, written commentary and accompanying materials, submitted in ful!lment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Written Commentary Department of Arts and Humanities College of Business, Arts and Social Sciences Brunel University September 2015 Abstract "is thesis is comprised of a portfolio of musical compositions with accompanying media and a written commentary. In each of the seven compositions, the timbral palettes of musical instruments have been expanded through unconventional physical manipulation. "e written commentary presents, in detail, speci!c examples of how this has been achieved. Alongside descriptions of the work in question, select aspects of other composers' music that approach a similar aesthetic are also referred to. In addition, the fundamental role technology has played in the creation or realisation of certain pieces is addressed. Also included are descriptions of the various customised notational systems used throughout the portfolio. It is outlined how each of these systems has been constructed in a clear and practical manner and, where possible, has incorporated elements derived from the lingua franca in order to communicate the required information as e#ciently as possible to the performers. i Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors Dr. Jennifer Walshe and Prof. Christopher Fox for their invaluable support and guidance throughout this PhD. "eir consistent enthusiasm motivated me to take on new compositional challenges with con!dence. I am grateful to the Arts Council of Ireland for their !nancial assistance through the Elizabeth Maconchy Composition Fellowship Award, and to the Irish Contemporary Music Centre for representation.

  • A PEDAGOGICAL GUIDE to EXTENDED PIANO TECHNIQUES a Mono
    A PEDAGOGICAL GUIDE TO EXTENDED PIANO TECHNIQUES ________________________________________________________________________ A Monograph Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS ________________________________________________________________________ by Jean-François Proulx May, 2009 © Copyright 2009 by Jean-François Proulx ii ABSTRACT A PEDAGOGICAL GUIDE TO EXTENDED PIANO TECHNIQUES Jean-François Proulx Doctor of Musical Arts Temple University, 2009 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Charles Abramovic Extended piano techniques, which mainly involve playing directly on the internal components of the piano, emerged early in the twentieth century, mainly in the United States. Henry Cowell (1897-1965) explored some of these techniques in short piano pieces such as The Tides of Manaunaun (1917; clusters) The Banshee (1925; glissando, pizzicato) and Sinister Resonance (1930; mute, harmonic). Several contemporary composers followed this path. Notably, George Crumb’s (b. 1929) mature works combine conventional techniques with an unprecedented variety of extended techniques, including vocal and percussive effects. Although extended techniques are no longer a novelty, most pianists are still unfamiliar with them. Extended piano works are rarely performed or taught. This situation is regrettable considering the quality of these compositions, and the great potential of extended techniques to expand the piano’s coloristic resources. A Pedagogical Guide to Extended Piano Techniques is designed to help pianists learn this idiom and achieve fluency. Teachers may also find it useful in planning courses at the undergraduate college level. Chapters 1 and 2 provide general information such as the development and classification of unconventional techniques, and the construction of the grand piano. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 form the core of the monograph.

  • 4. Modernist Reception of Japanese and Indian Traditional Music Between 1910 and 1945: Delage, Cowell, Mitsukuri, and Hayasaka
    82 Musical Composition in the Context of Globalization lies the basic problem of musical localism as a whole: on the one hand, composing as an act of cultural or intercultural positioning seems more plausible the more specific it becomes, and the more precisely art takes certain local traditions seriously, with all their implications, and draws comprehensive compositional conclusions from them. On the other hand, such a rigorous re- striction of the musical-idiomatic “listening field” – as becomes very clear in Tan Dun’s Nine Songs – risks approaching imitation, a culture-specific onesidedness and – in an international context – a flirtation with one’s own exoticism: self-exoticization.186 In this context, however, it should be noted that since 1986, Tan Dun’s works have been produced in the United States and are primarily aimed at Western audiences – even though they have been no less successful in China – and that Guo Wenjing’s and Qu Xiaosong’s larger works in the 1990s have likewise been predominantly performed in Europe and the USA. This paradox makes it clear once again that musical traditions – art music and local music genres – are in a constant process of transformation and do not produce immutable “authentic objects,” so that any compositional action inevitably decontextualizes such traditions. Every musical or compositional act will therefore operate, consciously or unconsciously, within this tension field – whether concrete local traditions are explicitly addressed or not. Both extremes that can be deduced from this are problematic: the notion of an “absolute authenticity” of local music, which must not be touched by art music, as well as the image of a “hypercultural” super- market that music creators can freely navigate.
