Touch Divided: Artistic Research in Duo Piano Performance 1 TOUCH DIVIDED: ARTISTIC RESEARCH IN DUO PIANO PERFORMANCE Dr. Anna Grinberg D.M.A., A.D., M.M., BMus. A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Music Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences 1 2 Abstract This thesis is situated within the paradigm of artistic research. It is a project in which the practice, processes and products of two-piano and piano duet performance constitute the research context, method and outcomes. The research was conducted through the activity of the Viney-Grinberg Piano Duo, of which the author is a member. The thesis is comprised of a folio of three artistic outputs in the form of recordings of musical performances, which are contextualised in a critical commentary. As a contribution to artistic knowledge, the thesis aims to “assemble” ideas and meanings around the recorded performances as a way of illuminating tacit knowledge embedded in the artistic objects, and to articulate implications of that knowledge for two-piano and duet performance. The research draws on the performative turn in musicology, construing performance as a creative rather than merely re-creative act, and recognising the ontological and epistemological potential of music performance as a knowledge outcome. Artistic research methods underpin the artistic outputs, which are discussed in relation to broader theoretical frameworks. The commentary interprets the outputs in relation to the work of scholars such as John Rink, Nicholas Cook, Vera John-Steiner and Edward Cone. The work of Henk Borgdorff, and the voices of Immanuel Kant and Theodor Adorno inform the conceptualisation of art and knowledge that underpins both the artistic outputs and the commentary. The thesis makes a contribution to new music, duo pianism, two-piano music, piano duet music, and Australian music. The primary contribution lies in aesthetic, tacit and non- conceptual artistic knowledge in the form of the first recorded performances of twelve works, nine of which were commissioned by the duo. The commentary identifies certain types of knowledge particular to the performance acts, inscribed in the recorded performances, and contributes to thinking around the kinds of artistic and discursive knowledge performers can bring to the broader understanding of music. 2 3 In the context of the history of two-piano and piano duet composition, the research suggests that each medium offers both performers and composers alike a unique outlet for performative and compositional innovation. The concept of the “metapiano” underpins both the collaborative relationship between the pianists, and the musical structures that are composed and performed. Finally, the study suggests that in the context of new music, the development and use of vivid imagery is particularly important in creating first interpretations. 3 4 Declaration by author This thesis is composed of my original work, and contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference has been made in the text.

Publications during candidature Book Chapter: Viney, Liam, and Anna Grinberg. “Collaboration in Duo Piano Performance – ‘Piano Spheres’.” Collaborative Creative Thought and Practice in Music. Edited by Margaret Barrett. Ashgate, 2014, pp. 157-172. (50%) 4 5 Publications included in this thesis Approximately 20% of Viney and Grinberg (cited above) is incorporated into Chapter Four. While not a formal inclusion of a whole publication, it is acknowledged here because the way in which it is incorporated goes beyond standard quotation practice. Contributions by others to the thesis A substantial contribution to this project was made by Dr. Liam Viney, my duo partner in the Viney-Grinberg Piano Duo. As a dyad operating in a creative context, ownership of ideas related to our creative practice is shared and neither individual is considered primary. Our creative practice, through which my research was conducted, involves co-constructed projects, co-authored texts, and countless hours of discussions, rehearsals and performances – all of which influenced and much of which became part of the fabric of this project. While unorthodox in traditional academic terms, this thesis proposes a broader conception of research, one that includes artistic paradigms as valid contexts for research. Liam is also my primary editor, and he contributed invaluable advice and performed numerous proof readings. Statement of parts of the thesis submitted to qualify for the award of another degree No publications 5 6 Acknowledgements I wish to acknowledge and thank my wonderful supervisors, Professor Margaret Barrett, and Dr. Simon Perry. Without their support and encouragement this project may not have come to fruition. I also wish to thank Catherine Cheng, Gary Johnson, Louise Deleur, Judy Viney and Neil Viney for their invaluable help with images and photographs.

    JOHANN NEPOMUK HUMMEL´S TRANSCRIPTIONS OF BEETHOVEN´S SYMPHONY NO. 2, OP. 36: A COMPARISON OF THE SOLO PIANO AND THE PIANO QUARTET VERSIONS Aram Kim, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2012 APPROVED: Pamela Mia Paul, Major Professor Clay Couturiaux, Minor Professor Gustavo Romero, Committee Member Steven Harlos, Chair, Division of Keyboard Studies John Murphy, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James Scott, Dean of the College of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Kim, Aram. Johann Nepomuk Hummel’s Transcriptions of Beethoven´s Symphony No. 2, Op. 36: A Comparison of the Solo Piano and the Piano Quartet Versions. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2012, 30 pp., 2 figures, 13 musical examples, references, 19 titles. Johann Nepomuk Hummel was a noted Austrian composer and piano virtuoso who not only wrote substantially for the instrument, but also transcribed a series of important orchestral pieces. Among them are two transcriptions of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 36- the first a version for piano solo and the second a work for piano quartet, with flute substituting for the traditional viola part. This study will examine Hummel’s treatment of the symphony in both transcriptions, looking at a variety of pianistic devices in the solo piano version and his particular instrumentation choices in the quartet version. Each of these transcriptions can serve a particular purpose for performers. The solo piano version is an obvious virtuoso vehicle, whereas the quartet version can be a refreshing program alternative in a piano quartet concert.

    The Turkish Online Journal of Design, Art and Communication - TOJDAC ISSN: 2146-5193, April 2018 Volume 8 Issue 2, p. 340-363 THE FORM ANALYSIS OF “SKY” COMPOSED FOR SIX-HANDS PIANO Şirin AKBULUT DEMİRCİ Assoc. Prof. Education Faculty, Music Education Faculty. Uludag University, Turkey https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8904-4920 [email protected] Berkant GENÇKAL Assoc. Prof. State Conservatory, School for Music and Drama. Anadolu University, Turkey https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5792-2100 [email protected] ABSTRACT The piano, which is a solo instrument that takes part in educational process, can take role not only in instrumental education but also in chamber music education as well with the 6-hands pieces for three players that perform same composition on a single instrument. According to the international 6-hands piano literature, although the works of Alfred Schnittke's Hommage, Carl Czerny's Op.17 and 741, Paul Robinson's Pensees and Montmartre and many more are included, the Turkish piano literature has been found to have a limited number of compositions. The aim of the work is to contribute to the field by presenting musical analysis about the place and the importance of the educational use of the works composed for 6-hands which are extremely rare in the Turkish piano literature. As an example, the piece named Sky composed by Hasan Barış Gemici is considered. Analysis is supported by comparative methods in form, structuralism, rhythm, theoretical applications and performance; it also gives information about basic playing techniques. It is thought that this study carries importance in contributing to the limited number of Turkish 6-hands piano literature and researchers who will conduct research in this regard, in terms of creating resources for performers and composers who will interpret the literature.

  • The Pedagogical Legacy of Johann Nepomuk Hummel
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE PEDAGOGICAL LEGACY OF JOHANN NEPOMUK HUMMEL. Jarl Olaf Hulbert, Doctor of Philosophy, 2006 Directed By: Professor Shelley G. Davis School of Music, Division of Musicology & Ethnomusicology Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), a student of Mozart and Haydn, and colleague of Beethoven, made a spectacular ascent from child-prodigy to pianist- superstar. A composer with considerable output, he garnered enormous recognition as piano virtuoso and teacher. Acclaimed for his dazzling, beautifully clean, and elegant legato playing, his superb pedagogical skills made him a much sought after and highly paid teacher. This dissertation examines Hummel’s eminent role as piano pedagogue reassessing his legacy. Furthering previous research (e.g. Karl Benyovszky, Marion Barnum, Joel Sachs) with newly consulted archival material, this study focuses on the impact of Hummel on his students. Part One deals with Hummel’s biography and his seminal piano treatise, Ausführliche theoretisch-practische Anweisung zum Piano- Forte-Spiel, vom ersten Elementar-Unterrichte an, bis zur vollkommensten Ausbildung, 1828 (published in German, English, French, and Italian). Part Two discusses Hummel, the pedagogue; the impact on his star-students, notably Adolph Henselt, Ferdinand Hiller, and Sigismond Thalberg; his influence on musicians such as Chopin and Mendelssohn; and the spreading of his method throughout Europe and the US. Part Three deals with the precipitous decline of Hummel’s reputation, particularly after severe attacks by Robert Schumann. His recent resurgence as a musician of note is exemplified in a case study of the changes in the appreciation of the Septet in D Minor, one of Hummel’s most celebrated compositions.
