Performance notes Accidentals apply only to the note before which they are written. Exception: when a note is immediately repeated in the same register, the first alteration is valid for these immediate repetitions (for example, beginning of m. 38). Vibrato may be specified as follows: molto vibrato, poco vibrato, senza vibrato (or abbreviations such as m.vib., poco vibr., etc). Sometimes a bracket is used to clarify beginning and end of the vibrato: the vibrato then applies only to the notes under the bracket. An ascending or descending arrow after a vibrato mark indicates a gradual increase or decrease of the vibrato, within the duration indicated by the bracket (note that these arrows associated to a vibrato mark do not mean any kind of overall glissando). For example, the "molto vibrato" on the first note of m. 55 should quickly decrease to a less intense vibrato, the same action being repeated for the second note. An indication such as "slow and narrow vibrato" (m. 70) specifies both components of a vibrato: speed of vibration and amount of pitch change around the center pitch. A "wiggly line" may appear in conjunction with these vibrato marks simply as a visual aid. "Parenthetical interruptions" should be interpreted in the same way as in written and spoken language: "an amplifying or explanatory word, phrase, or sentence inserted in a passage; a remark or passage that departs from the theme of a discourse." The raw material of the piece is a pool of fragments of sometimes disparate stylistic origin. The tendency for a discontinuous flow is already embedded in the very nature of such material; as a counterbalance, the performer should strive to bring out aspects of continuity in the music (through latent associations, dormant correspondences etc), not only between neighboring fragments but also across larger sections of the piece. These are not quotations: recognizability of any given fragment is not sought nor expected. The work is not exactly a collage, either. The step of devalorization (negation of the value of prior organization of expression) is here followed by a step of revalorization of these fragments into newly organized and meaningful connections. It is perhaps a way of creatively examining the potential malleability (or resistance) of different musical materials when subjected to higher temperatures.

  • Shiraz for Piano Solo by Claude Vivier: an Analysis for the Performer
    SHIRAZ FOR PIANO SOLO BY CLAUDE VIVIER: AN ANALYSIS FOR THE PERFORMER by DAVID BERGERON Bmus, McGill University, 1999 Mmus, McGill University, 2001 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULLFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2010 © David Bergeron, 2010 Abstract Claude Vivier wrote Shiraz in 1977, after returning from a trip to Bali and Iran. Linked to the compositional style of his mentors Gilles Tremblay and Karlheinz Stockhausen, Shiraz is the embryo of what would become Vivier’s own mature compositional and expressive language. Its scope and its importance in Vivier’s catalogue make it an essential subject for an exploration of Vivier’s compositional techniques. This thesis aims not only to give a broad sense of Vivier’s musical language, but also to communicate specific insights relevant to pianists who wish to understand better the subtleties of this particular composition. An investigation of selected works written by Vivier in 1975, a comparison with Schumann’s Toccata opus 7, and a consideration of influences from Stockhausen and Messiaen form the background for a thorough analysis of the piece (including its form, pitch structure, and rhythmic techniques). Problems of memorization and fingering are also discussed. The thesis can help the performer who wishes to add Shiraz to his or her repertoire, to understand and successfully prepare the work for performance and interpretation. ii Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………… ii Table of Contents………………………………………………………………… iii List of Tables……………………………………………………………………...iv List of Examples…………………………………………………………………...v Acknowledgments………………………………………………………………. vii Dedication……………………………………………………………………….

  • Stockhausen Concerts and Classes for Clarinettists and Others. Clarinettists Have Reason to Be Very Happy with the Development
    Stockhausen concerts and classes for clarinettists and others. Clarinettists have reason to be very happy with the development of their repertoire in de 20th century, as it had a previously unseen growth. One of the main figures of post war new music has been Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928-2007). This often controversial composer has enriched clarinet literature with an unprecedented number of works for clarinet, bassethorn and bass clarinet, especially after 1974. These sometimes demanding pieces, often with theatrical elements, require a specific approach and way of playing, easily underestimated. Stockhausen was well aware of this and started coaching a new generation of players in the 1980’s, in order to pass this tradition of interpretation on to others. In spite of Stockhausen’s compositions having the reputation of being difficult and intellectual (if not quasi-religious), to play, watch and listen to them is generally great fun, and very satisfying to work on - if done well. Because the music calls on many apects of performing (e.g. fysical and mental attitude on stage, memory, presentation, awareness of the structure of the music, disciplin) the leaning process has a beneficial influence on performing traditional music too. This series of concerts and courses offers the possibility to watch, listen, study and rehearse a number of Stockhausen’s works with Michel Marang, a clarinettist who worked with the composer since 1986 and performed his music hundreds of times worldwide. The course can have the character of an introductory lecture and concert, but eventually may result in seminars over a longer stretch of time, as much as needed to bring specific works on concert level.

  • Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: an Overview and Performance Guide
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide A PROJECT DOCUMENT SUBMITTED TO THE BIENEN SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS Program of Saxophone Performance By Thomas Michael Snydacker EVANSTON, ILLINOIS JUNE 2019 2 ABSTRACT Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide Thomas Snydacker The saxophone has long been an instrument at the forefront of new music. Since its invention, supporters of the saxophone have tirelessly pushed to create a repertoire, which has resulted today in an impressive body of work for the yet relatively new instrument. The saxophone has found itself on the cutting edge of new concert music for practically its entire existence, with composers attracted both to its vast array of tonal colors and technical capabilities, as well as the surplus of performers eager to adopt new repertoire. Since the 1970s, one of the most eminent and consequential styles of contemporary music composition has been spectralism. The saxophone, predictably, has benefited tremendously, with repertoire from Gérard Grisey and other founders of the spectral movement, as well as their students and successors. Spectral music has continued to evolve and to influence many compositions into the early stages of the twenty-first century, and the saxophone, ever riding the crest of the wave of new music, has continued to expand its body of repertoire thanks in part to the influence of the spectralists. The current study is a guide for modern saxophonists and pedagogues interested in acquainting themselves with the saxophone music of the spectralists.

  • Sardinian Composers of Contemporary Music
    Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology 12,2012 © PTPN & Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, Poznań 2012 CONSUELO GIGLIO Music Conservatory, Trapani Sardinian composers of contemporary music ABSTRACT: The meeting point between the school headed by Franco Oppo and the rich traditional music of the island gave birth in Sardinia to an intense flowering in the field of New Music, with a strong feeling of belonging and a constant call for a positive concept of identity. Thus, since the time of Oppo (1935) and his contemporary Vittorio Montis, we come across many composers that differ between each other but are almost always recognizably “Sardinian”. Oppo has been one of the most interesting figures on the international scene during the last few decades. After his studies in Rome, Venice and Poland in the early 1960s, he remained, by his own choice, in his home territory, sharing his “Sardinian-ness” in a free and dialectic manner with the avant-garde. After formulating his own particular aleatory approach, Oppo reached a turning point halfway through the 1970s: in Musica per chitarra e quartetto d’archi, Praxodia and, finally, in Anninnia I, the meeting point between avant-garde research and the special phonic quality of tra­ ditional music became more and more close-knit and organic, at the same time also acting on the founding language structure whilst still remaining under the control of incisive and informed dis­ ciplines (during the same period, moreover, he put forward new methodologies of analysis which were also necessary for his teaching). In this sense the most important works are chamber pieces like Anninnia I and II (1978, 1982), Attitidu (1983) and Sagra (1985), the theatrical work Eleonora d’Arborea (1986), some piano “transcriptions” - the Three berceuses (1982), Gallurese and Baroniese (1989; 1993) - Trio III (1994), Sonata B for percussion and piano (2005) and the two Concerts for piano and orchestra (1995-97; 2002).

  • Sonic Subtlety
    SONIC SUBTLETY: ATTENTIVENESS, CONSCIOUSNESS, UBIQUITY Annabelle RICHMOND January 2018 This thesis is being submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Kingston University for the MA by Research award within the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. 1 Abstract This research branches from the study of silence in sound studies and musicology. It contributes by theorising ‘sonic subtlety’, a new category of sound positioned between silence and sound, where the sound is more restrained, but also not completely silent. Sonic subtlety appears in four aspects of sound: amplitude, spectrum, space and time. This study observes how sonic subtlety performs in 20th-century classical music and contemporary film music and answers the following: • What does sonic subtlety do and in which ways can it perform effects to a listener? • How does sonic subtlety function in 20th-century classical music and contemporary film music? • How does sonic subtlety change the act of listening? In Chapter 1, I explain ‘sonic performativity’, the ability of a sound to perform an effect to an audience. This thesis considers sonic subtlety in terms of its sonic performativity. Most 20th-century classical music has no external, extra-musical functions such as illustrating a narrative or accompanying a visual. Sonic subtlety performs effects for the listener’s enjoyment only.
