References in Potpourris: 'Artificial Fragments' and Paratexts in Mauro Giuliani's Le Rossiniane Opp. 119–123
References in Potpourris: ‘Artificial Fragments’ and Paratexts in Mauro Giuliani’s Le Rossiniane Opp. 119–123 Francesco Teopini Terzetti Casagrande, Hong Kong The early-nineteenth-century guitar virtuoso Mauro Giuliani (1781– 1829) was a master of the potpourri, a genre of which the main characteristic is the featuring of famous opera themes in the form of musical quotations. Giuliani’s Le Rossiniane comprises six such potpourris for guitar, composed at the time when Rossini was the most famous operatic composer in Europe; they are acknowledged as Giuliani’s chef-d’oeuvre in this genre. Through an investigation of the original manuscripts of Le Rossiniane No. 3, Op. 121, and No. 5, Op. 123, I consider that Giuliani, apparently in order to be fully understood by both performers and audiences, wanted to overtly reference these musical quotations; and that he left various paratextual clues which in turn support the validity of my observations. Utilizing both music and literary theory my analysis investigates and categorizes three types of peritextual elements adopted by Giuliani in order to classify and reference the quoted musical themes in Le Rossiniane for both performers and the public: title, intertitle, and literal note. Further investigation of these works also leads to the hypothesis that each of Giuliani’s musical quotations, called in this paper artificial fragments, can be considered as a further, and essential referential element within the works. At the beginning of the nineteenth century the making of potpourris was the quickest way to compose ‘new’ and successful music. Carl Czerny (1791–1857) stated that the public of that time “experience[d] great delight on finding in a composition some pleasing melody […] which it has previously heard at the Opera […] [and] when […] introduced in a spirited and brilliant manner […] both the composer and the practiced player can ensure great success” (1848 online: 86). -

In pre- senting this event it has been my honor to work closely with Jason Vieaux, 2015 Grammy Award Winner and Cleveland Institute of Music Guitar Department Head; Colin Davin, recently appointed to the Cleveland Institute of Music’s Conservatory Guitar Faculty; and Tom Poore, a highly devoted guitar teacher and superb writer. Our reasons for presenting this Festival are fivefold: (1) to help increase the awareness and respect due artists whose exemplary work has enhanced our lives and the lives of others; (2) to entertain; (3) to educate; (4) to encourage deeper thought and discussion about how we listen to, perform, and evaluate fine music; and, most important, (5) to help facilitate heightened moments of human awareness. In our experience participation in the live performance of fine music is potentially one of the highest social ends towards which we can aspire as performers, music students, and audience members. For it is in live, heightened moments of musical magic—when time stops and egos dissolve—that often we are made most conscious of our shared humanity.

The Duality of the Composer-Performer
The Duality of the Composer-Performer by Marek Pasieczny Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Arts Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Supervisors: Prof. Stephen Goss ©Marek Pasieczny 2015 The duality of the composer-performer A portfolio of original compositions, with a supplementary dissertation ‘Interviews Project: Thirteen Composers on Writing for the Guitar’. Abstract The main focus of this submission is the composition portfolio which consists of four pieces, each composed several times over for different combinations of instruments. The purpose of this PhD composition portfolio is threefold. Firstly, it is to contribute to the expansion of the classical guitar repertoire. Secondly, it is to defy the limits imposed by the technical facilities of the physical instrument and bring novelty to its playability. Third and most importantly, it is to overcome the challenges of being a guitarist-composer. Due to a high degree of familiarity with the traditional guitar repertoire, and possessing intimate knowledge of the instrument, it is often difficult for me as a guitarist-composer to depart from habitual tendencies to compose truly innovative works for the instrument. I have thus created a compositional approach whereby I separated my role as a composer from my role as a guitarist in an attempt to overcome this challenge. I called it the ‘dual-role’ approach, comprising four key strategies that I devised which involves (1) borrowing ‘New Music’ practices to defy traditionalist guitar tendencies which are often conservative and insular; (2) adapting compositional materials to different instrumentations; and expanding on (3) the guitar technique as well as; (4) the guitar’s inventory of extended techniques. -

Guitar and Lute Music
SOLITARY REFINEMENT Music for Lute, Vihuela and Guitar Welcome to the intimate, colourful and versatile world of music for lute and guitar, instruments with an ancestry tracing back thousands of years and a fascinating repertoire reflecting the physical and social development of the instrument over the past five centuries. The music represented in the following pages traces the instrument’s journey from the refinements of the early sixteenth century to the more cutting-edge characteristics it has inspired from 20th-century composers. Collectors wishing to assemble recordings by composer will find noted representatives of successive historical periods, including the English Renaissance composer John Dowland, German baroque master Silvius Leopold Weiss, the Italian classical style of Mauro Giuliani, 19th-century Spanish greats Fernando Sor and Francisco Tárrega, plus a modern international spread of names including Joaquín Rodrigo and Leo Brouwer. There are also regional collections representative of guitar music not only from the instrument’s native Spain, but also from South American countries closely associated with the development of the instrument’s profile in the 20th century – Brazil, Argentina and Chile, for example – plus gems from Australia and Britain. Alternatively, the instrument’s range of technical and expressive capabilities can be sampled by choosing from an extensive set of solo recitals by an international roster of distinguished performers, not least in our highly successful and ever-expanding Guitar Laureate Series. Complementing the instrument’s image as a solitary instrument are recordings of ensemble works for two and three guitars, for guitar and piano, and Boccherini’s quintets for guitar and string quartet. -

Counterpoint and Performance of Guitar Music – Historical and Contemporary Case Studies
Counterpoint and Performance of Guitar Music – Historical and Contemporary Case Studies Paul Ballam–Cross B.Mus (Performance), M.L.I.S A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2019 School of Music Abstract This thesis examines how contemporary composers approach the guitar and counterpoint. An historical overview of the guitar is provided at the outset of the thesis, leading to detailed examination of contrapuntal technique in an extended twentieth-century work by Miklós Rózsa, and addresses effective guitar performance techniques in relation to different kinds of contrapuntal textures. These historical, technical and performance considerations then inform a series of interviews with six contemporary composers (Stephen Hough, Angelo Gilardino, Stephen Goss, Tilmann Hoppstock, Ross Edwards, and Richard Charlton). These interviews aim to provide insight into how 21st century composers approach contrapuntal writing for the guitar. The interviews are paired with detailed discussions of representative works for guitar by each composer. These discussions deal particularly with difficulties in practical performance and with how the composer has achieved their compositional goals. This thesis therefore seeks to discover how approaches to the guitar and counterpoint (including challenges, limitations and strategies) have changed and evolved throughout the instrument’s existence, up to some of the most recent works composed for it. i 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. I have clearly stated the contribution by others to jointly–authored works that I have included in my thesis.
