    Demystifying Galina Ustvolskaya: Critical Examination and Performance Interpretation. Elena Nalimova 10 October 2012 Submitted in partial requirement for the Degree of PhD in Performance Practice at the Goldsmiths College, University of London 1 Declaration The work presented in this thesis is my own and has not been presented for any other degree. Where the work of others has been utilised this has been indicated and the sources acknowledged. All the translations from Russian are my own, unless indicated otherwise. Elena Nalimova 10 October 2012 2 Note on transliteration and translation The transliteration used in the thesis and bibliography follow the Library of Congress system with a few exceptions such as: endings й, ий, ый are simplified to y; я and ю transliterated as ya/yu; е is е and ё is e; soft sign is '. All quotations from the interviews and Russian publications were translated by the author of the thesis. 3 Abstract This thesis presents a performer’s view of Galina Ustvolskaya and her music with the aim of demystifying her artistic persona. The author examines the creation of ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ by critically analysing Soviet, Russian and Western literature sources, oral history on the subject and the composer’s personal recollections, and reveals paradoxes and parochial misunderstandings of Ustvolskaya’s personality and the origins of her music. Having examined all the available sources, the author argues that the ‘Ustvolskaya Myth’ was a self-made phenomenon that persisted due to insufficient knowledge on the subject. In support of the argument, the thesis offers a performer’s interpretation of Ustvolskaya as she is revealed in her music.

AESTHETIC POLITICS OF AFFECT AND AUTONOMY In Arundhati Virmani (ed.), Political Aesthetics: Culture, Critique and the Everyday, London, Routledge, 2016, p.71-86. The emergence of techno music – commonly used in France as electronic dance music – in the early 1990s is inseparable from rave parties as a form of spatiotemporal deployment. It signifies that the live diffusion via a sound system powerful enough to diffuse not only its volume but also its sound frequencies spectrum, including infrabass, is an integral part of the techno experience. In other words listening on domestic equipment is not a sufficient condition to experience this music.

  • 1000 Voices for Peace in a Nutshell
    Peace is about much more than ending war Flanders Festival Brussels commemorates the Great War 1 2 1,000 Voices for Peace in a nutshell On 9 November 2014, Flanders Festival Brussels will be joined by over 1000 singers and the Brussels Philharmonic to commemorate the Great War. Singers and choirs from countries involved in the conflict at the time will be making an inspiring statement for peace. Art, and especially music and song, is what binds our world together! The great Polish composer, Krzysztof Penderecki, also subscribes to the urgency of our statement for peace. He has created an oratorio for peace that will be performed for the first time on 9 November. Since his world-famous 1961 Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima, the fortunes of the world have become an inseparable part of his work. 1000 Voices for Peace also gives choirs from Belgium and the world an opportunity to fraternise with each other. Between November 3 and 9, we and many Belgian choirs will be welcoming fifteen choirs from all around the globe. With 15 fraternising concerts in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia on November 5, 6 & 7, each choir will give colour and its best to the 1000 Voices for Peace narrative. Herman van Rompuy, president of the European Council, is patron of the project. Herman Van Rompuy has been the head of Europe for two whole mandates. A mission which is just right for him. The 31rst of December 2014 his mandate ends, but not his personal quest. The President is convinced that culture plays an important role for being a bridge between countries and nations.

    THURSDAY 8 SEPTEMBER 2016: SESSIONS 1‐4 Maciej Fortuna and Krzysztof Dys (Academy of Music, Poznán) BIOGRAPHIES Maciej Fortuna is a Polish trumpeter, composer and music producer. He has a PhD degree in Musical Arts and an MA degree in Law and actively pursues his artistic career. In his work, he strives to create his own language of musical expression and expand the sound palette of his instrument. He enjoys experimenting with combining different art forms. An important element of his creative work consists in the use of live electronics. He creates and directs multimedia concerts and video productions. Krzysztof Dys is a Polish jazz pianist. He has a PhD degree in Musical Arts. So far he has collaborated with the great Polish vibrafonist Jerzy Milian, with famous saxophonist Mikoaj Trzaska, and as well with clarinettist Wacaw Zimpel. Dys has worked on a regular basis with young, Poznań‐based trumpeter, Maciej Fortuna. Their album Tropy has been well‐received by the audience and critics as well. Dys also plays in Maciej Fortuna Quartet, with Jakub Mielcarek, double bass, and Przemysaw Jarosz, drums. In 2013 the group toured outside Poland with a project ‘Jazz from Poland’, with a goal to present the work of unappreciated or forgotten or Polish jazz composers. The main inspiration for Krzysztof Dys is the work of Russian composers Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin, Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev, American artists like Bill Evans and Miles Davis, and last but not least, a great Polish composer, Grayna Bacewicz. TITLE Classical Inspirations in Jazz Compositions Based on Selected Works by Roman Maciejewski ABSTRACT A few years prior to commencing a PhD programme, I started my own research on the possibilities of implementing electronic sound modifiers into my jazz repertoire.

  • ARTEMANDOLINE Early Music
    ARTEMANDOLINE Early Music With their ensemble Artemandoline, formed in 2001, Juan Carlos Muñoz and Mari Fe Pavón chose to go back to the original documents to establish the true pedigree of this incomparable family of plucked string instruments. They have made a major contribution to launching a movement to encourage musical freshness and rigour. A better understanding of the compositions, closer study of the early treatises, the playing styles, the musical environment of the glorious era of the mandolin, leads to better appreciation of Baroque music, which itself became over time a mode of thought and action. Searching for early mandolins, working on the manuscripts, hunting down early treatises, exploring the iconography: these are the means by which, for more than ten years now, the musicians of Artemandoline have sought to do fuller justice to the works of Scarlatti, Vivaldi, Weiss, and their contemporaries. The success of this approach based on a return to the sources, which constitutes the most important development in the history of the interpretation of ‘serious’ music in the course of the twentieth century, has been made possible by the cooperation of many protagonists – musicians, but also concert organisers, recording producers, publishers, musicologists, and instrument makers. To ensure that music composed in the past does not sound like mere ‘early music’ in the present, the performers must manage to be sufficiently free, spontaneous, anticipative and astonished in their intimate act of creation and the newness it engenders. Juan Carlos Muñoz and Mari Fe Pavón spend their lives searching out and reviving forgotten masterpieces of the mandolin repertory.

  • Historical Performance Practice at the Beginning of the New Millennium
    Historical Performance Practice at the beginning of the new millennium Dorottya Fabian An interest in early music and performing practices of the past has a long history by now. Its characteristics in the nineteenth century have been mapped by several authors, especially in relation to the revival of Johann Sebastian Bach’s music, the Cecilian Movement and various musical developments in England. Even more pub- lications are available on its twentieth-century history.1 The initiatives during the early decades (e.g. the organ and recorder movements of the 1920s, the establish- ing of the Schola Cantorum in Basel in 1933) and the contribution of pioneers like Wanda Landowska and Arnold Dolmetsch have been extensively studied togeth- er with lesser-known figures, places and institutions.2 But as is well-known, it was during the second half of the twentieth century that the Early Music or Historically Informed Performance Movement has truly taken off, becoming a major force in the world of classical music. Many books and papers have been dedicated to the history of this development, its various phases, musical characteristics, key figures, aesthetic outlook and philosophical assumptions, and its achievements. There was a burgeon- ing of such literature and heated debates during the 1980s and 1990s followed by more comprehensive and ‘corrective’ analyses published during the early years of the 2000s, most focussing on the second half of the twentieth century.3 Much less has 1 Harry Haskell, The Early Music Revival – A History, London 1988; George B.
