  • The Composer's Guide to the Tuba

    The Composer's Guide to the Tuba

    THE COMPOSER’S GUIDE TO THE TUBA: CREATING A NEW RESOURCE ON THE CAPABILITIES OF THE TUBA FAMILY Aaron Michael Hynds 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 August 2019 Committee: David Saltzman, Advisor Marco Nardone Graduate Faculty Representative Mikel Kuehn Andrew Pelletier © 2019 Aaron Michael Hynds All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT David Saltzman, Advisor The solo repertoire of the tuba and euphonium has grown exponentially since the middle of the 20th century, due in large part to the pioneering work of several artist-performers on those instruments. These performers sought out and collaborated directly with composers, helping to produce works that sensibly and musically used the tuba and euphonium. However, not every composer who wishes to write for the tuba and euphonium has access to world-class tubists and euphonists, and the body of available literature concerning the capabilities of the tuba family is both small in number and lacking in comprehensiveness. This document seeks to remedy this situation by producing a comprehensive and accessible guide on the capabilities of the tuba family. An analysis of the currently-available materials concerning the tuba family will give direction on the structure and content of this new guide, as will the dissemination of a survey to the North American composition community. The end result, the Composer’s Guide to the Tuba, is a practical, accessible, and composer-centric guide to the modern capabilities of the tuba family of instruments. iv To Sara and Dad, who both kept me going with their never-ending love.

    Concertino for Trumpet by Emil Petrovics (1930-2011): a Transcription for Brass Ensemble (2011) Directed by Dr

    KEYSER, ALLYSON BLAIR, D.M.A. Concertino for Trumpet by Emil Petrovics (1930-2011): A Transcription for Brass Ensemble (2011) Directed by Dr. Edward Bach. 139 pp. Emil Petrovics (1930-2011) was an award-winning, prominent music figure in the history of Hungarian music. Known primarily for his one-act opera C’est la guerre, Petrovics also wrote film music, an oratorio, a string quartet, and numerous instrumental and vocal works. Among his instrumental music, Concertino is the only solo work Petrovics ever composed for solo trumpet with orchestra. Significant professional posts for Petrovics included professor of composition and conducting at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music, musical director of the Petöfi Theatre in Budapest, president of the Hungarian Association for Copyright Protection, and director of the Hungarian State Opera. In addition, Petrovics was a member of the Hungarian Parliament. The purpose of this study is to promote the work of Emil Petrovics through a performance edition of Concertino transcribed for brass ensemble. A secondary purpose of this study is to provide insight into the compositional process of Petrovics with the support of personal interviews with the composer prior to his death. The document presents a biographical sketch of Petrovics, a brief description of the three-movement work, and includes the arrangement of the Concertino for brass ensemble. Trumpeter Gyorgy Geiger and the Budapest Radio Symphony Orchestra commissioned the orchestral version of Concertino by Petrovics in 1990. Editio Musica Budapest published a piano reduction of Concertino, but the orchestral score was not published. Special permission to arrange the work was required and subsequently granted by the composer and EMB in December 2010.
  • Romanian Folk Music for Bassoon and Piano

    Romanian Folk Music for Bassoon and Piano

    Romanian Folk Music for Bassoon and Piano: Three New Arrangements and Recordings from the Works of George Enescu and Béla Bartók by Sarah Burnett Rice-Misura A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved April 2020 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Albie Micklich, Chair Elizabeth Buck Catherine Saucier ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2020 ABSTRACT The bassoon has the ability to play in varying styles across multiple genres with repertoire spanning from the early Baroque era to the present day. Popular and frequently played pieces for the bassoon, such as concerti by Vivaldi, Mozart, and Weber, are frequently performed in recital, yet the rich musical tradition and repertory of Romanian folk music is seldom performed in the recital hall. The main reason for the shortcoming of this style of music in the bassoon repertoire can be attributed to the sheer lack of prominent composers writing original works for the bassoon in Romania compared to Western Europe. The purpose of this project is to add Romanian folk music to the bassoon repertoire by arranging and recording three pieces for bassoon and piano: Romanian Rhapsody No. 1 in A Major and Romanian Rhapsody No. 2 in D Major by George Enescu and the six- movement work Romanian Folk Dances by Béla Bartók. Included in this project is a section covering historical information on the arranged compositions, procedures of the transcription that explain the reasoning to alterations and adjustments from the original score are also incorporated in this document. Lastly, the transcribed scores and recordings of the arrangements are included in this document.

Sommerfeld © 2011 Paul A. Sommerfeld Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2011 The thesis of Paul A. Sommerfeld was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles D. Youmans Associate Professor of Musicology Thesis Adviser Marica S. Tacconi Professor of Musicology Sue E. Haug Professor of Music Director, School of Music *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT Attending the Budapest premiere of Richard Strauss’s tone poem Also sprach Zarathustra in February 1902 profoundly influenced the subsequent trajectory of the young Béla Bartók’s musical endeavors. Afterward, the budding composer, who at the moment stood at a creative impasse, immersed himself in Strauss's orchestral works—Ein Heldenleben in particular—and thereafter resumed his compositional studies. In Strauss, Bartók discovered “the seeds of a new life,” a means with which he could create complex, serious music that he would unite with Hungarian characteristics—at least those elements that Europe as a whole associated with Hungarian identity at the time, meaning gypsy music and the verbunkos. Only with these “authentic” elements did Bartók believe he could craft a musical embodiment of the Hungarian ethos. Yet like many artists of the period, Bartók viewed Straussian modernism as a means to imbue his music with renewed vitality. Thus, he plunged into the tone poems of the world’s leading Teutonic composer.

    Table of Contents Welcome Letters Pages 1-2 NERTEC Schedule of Events Pages 3-5 NERTEC Daily Events Schedule Pages 6-17 Biographies Pages 22-46 Dear Friends, It was in the seventh grade that the band director, Mr. Geary, decided that while I already played the piano and the violin, I was going to take up the tuba. I was the biggest kid in the school, unusually big at an early age, and this was not only pre-internet, but pre-fiberglass. Real sousaphones—the brass kind—weigh close to 50 pounds (at least mine did). It was assigned to me; I didn’t exactly choose it. While it was an arranged marriage, we did manage to fall in love. As college approached and even through my freshman year in music school, it was a toss-up between the piano (my other instrument) and my Miraphone 184. Two more different instruments have never existed. The piano has over ten thousand moving parts, requires a whole extra person to play in tune, and is for many people a cross between a piece of furniture and a typewriter. Not so the tuba. This is not something you sit in front of. This, you wrap your arms around and hold lovingly on your lap. The piano produces sound by hitting things; the tuba, we sing through, sometimes to the point where I couldn’t tell whether the vibration was in the tuba or in my body. The two become one. And on a good day, we can play in tune all by ourselves, thank you.
