  • Sonata for Flute and Piano in D Major, Op. 94 by Sergey Prokofiev
    SONATA FOR FLUTE AND PIANO IN D MAJOR, OP. 94 BY SERGEY PROKOFIEV: A PERFORMANCE GUIDE HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors Committee of Texas State University-San Marcos in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation in the Honors ColLege by Danielle Emily Stevens San Marcos, Texas May 2014 1 SONATA FOR FLUTE AND PIANO IN D MAJOR, OP. 94 BY SERGEY PROKOFIEV: A PERFORMANCE GUIDE Thesis Supervisor: ________________________________ Kay Lipton, Ph.D. School of Music Second Reader: __________________________________ Adah Toland Jones, D. A. School of Music Second Reader: __________________________________ Cynthia GonzaLes, Ph.D. School of Music Approved: ____________________________________ Heather C. GaLLoway, Ph.D. Dean, Honors ColLege 2 Abstract This thesis contains a performance guide for Sergey Prokofiev’s Sonata for Flute and Piano in D Major, Op. 94 (1943). Prokofiev is among the most important Russian composers of the twentieth century. Recognized as a leading Neoclassicist, his bold innovations in harmony and his new palette of tone colors enliven the classical structures he embraced. This is especially evident in this flute sonata, which provides a microcosm of Prokofiev’s compositional style and highlights the beauty and virtuosic breadth of the flute in new ways. In Part 1 I have constructed an historical context for the sonata, with biographical information about Prokofiev, which includes anecdotes about his personality and behavior, and a discussion of the sonata’s commission and subsequent premiere. In Part 2 I offer an anaLysis of the piece with generaL performance suggestions and specific performance practice options for flutists that will assist them as they work toward an effective performance, one that is based on both the historically informed performance context, as well as remarks that focus on particular techniques, challenges and possible performance solutions.

From 1870 to 1934 he was the organist of St. Sulpice in Paris, and was professor of organ at the Paris Conservatoire, following in the footsteps of Cesar Franck. He was, however, a prolific composer, his output including three operas, symphonies, concertos, chamber music, piano solos and songs. Of his chamber works, perhaps one of his finest pieces is this Suite for Flute and Piano, Op. 34. Widor composed the Suite in 1877 (although it was not published until 1898) for Paul Taffanel (1844-1908), a fellow professor at the Conservatoire and a fine, highly influential flautist who developed many technical aspects of flute playing to the extent that France became the acknowledged centre of the flute in Europe.

  • An Analysis of Twentieth-Century Flute Sonatas by Ikuma Dan, Hikaru
    Flute Repertoire from Japan: An Analysis of Twentieth-Century Flute Sonatas by Ikuma Dan, Hikaru Hayashi, and Akira Tamba D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Daniel Ryan Gallagher, M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2019 D.M.A. Document Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Advisor Dr. Arved Ashby Dr. Caroline Hartig Professor Karen Pierson 1 Copyrighted by Daniel Ryan Gallagher 2019 2 Abstract Despite the significant number of compositions by influential Japanese composers, Japanese flute repertoire remains largely unknown outside of Japan. Apart from standard unaccompanied works by Tōru Takemitsu and Kazuo Fukushima, other Japanese flute compositions have yet to establish a permanent place in the standard flute repertoire. The purpose of this document is to broaden awareness of Japanese flute compositions through the discussion, analysis, and evaluation of substantial flute sonatas by three important Japanese composers: Ikuma Dan (1924-2001), Hikaru Hayashi (1931- 2012), and Akira Tamba (b. 1932). A brief history of traditional Japanese flute music, a summary of Western influences in Japan’s musical development, and an overview of major Japanese flute compositions are included to provide historical and musical context for the composers and works in this document. Discussions on each composer’s background, flute works, and compositional style inform the following flute sonata analyses, which reveal the unique musical language and characteristics that qualify each work for inclusion in the standard flute repertoire. These analyses intend to increase awareness and performance of other Japanese flute compositions specifically and lesser- known repertoire generally.

  • Czech Music Culture in London and Post-1989 Developments in Czechoslovakia at the Time
    International Journal of Arts and Commerce ISSN 1929-7106 www.ijac.org.uk CZECH MUSIC CULTURE IN LONDON AND POST-1989 DEVELOPMENTS IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA AT THE TIME Markéta Koutná Univerzita Palackého v Olomouci, Filozofická Fakulta, Katedra muzikologie Czech Republic E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The study deals with Czech-London musical relations, particularly Czech music culture in London within the context of cultural, social and political change in 1989. An analysis of the opera, chamber music, and symphonic production of Czech music in London between 1984 and 1994 identifies how and whether the Czechoslovak Velvet Revolution affected the firm position that Czech music culture had held in the capital of the United Kingdom. Key words: Czech musical culture, London, emigration, composers, the Velvet Revolution, 1989 The musical relations between the Czechs and London represent an important current issue. As the capital of the United Kingdom, London naturally takes the lead within the British cultural scene. With its population, budget, and institutional capacities, it is one of the world’s major social and cultural centres, and thanks to the high interest of London-based institutions in Czech music, it is also one of the world's top producers of Czech music. The current research examines how, if at all, the events of November 1989 influenced the position of Czech musical culture in London and the relationship between Czech and London musicians. I became interested in this issue while researching data for my dissertation on Czech musical culture in London.1 Using the specific example of interpretations of Czech opera, chamber music and 1 The study is a part of the student grant project IGA_FF_2015_024 Influence of the Velvet Revolution on Czech Musical Culture in London and all the data used in the study draw on the author’s research for her dissertation Czech Musical Culture in London Between 1984 and 1994.

  • JS Bach's Flute Sonata in a Major, BWV 1032
    J. S. Bach’s Flute Sonata in A Major, BWV 1032: Reconstructing the Fragmentary First Movement Bach’s A-major flute sonata has long been the object of reconstructors seeking to fill the lacuna left when a portion of the first movement was cut away from its sole primary source. A flurry of writings on the subject appeared in the 1980s, probably spurred by the new edition of the work published within the Neue Bach-Ausgabe; among these were two articles by Michael Marissen that made it appear that an “authentic reconstruction” of the first movement is within our grasp.1 By an “authentic” reconstruction Marissen meant one that takes into account all surviving clues as to the nature of the missing music while reducing to a minimum the amount of freshly composed music that must be supplied. As Marissen showed, practically no new music is necessary. The present score, although slightly emended in 2015, is essentially identical to one that I prepared in 1994 and published online about ten years later. That score incorporated suggestions from Marissen’s articles, although it had originated in an earlier reconstruction first drafted while I was still in college. The present notes offer addenda to Marissen’s discussion and explain how the accompanying score differs from the reconstruction described in his articles. First, as Marissen established, the sonata must have been a keyboard-obbligato arrangement of an earlier work in trio-sonata scoring. But, as in the case of other arrangements that Bach prepared from now-lost earlier works—including most or all of the harpsichord concertos, and perhaps all of the other obbligato-keyboard sonatas—the extent of Bach’s active revision while making the arrangement is by no means clear, and thus the original version of the work cannot be reconstructed.

  • Classics 1 Program Notes
    Classics 1: Program Notes The Sights and Sounds of Stockton: Cityscape John Wineglass and San Joaquin Delta College media students In accordance with its mission to inspire joy and build community through music—and with the aim of generating community pride and awareness through art—the Stockton Symphony teamed up with award-winning composer John Wineglass and San Joaquin Delta College media students under the direction of Adriana Brogger and Kirstyn Russell to create a project titled The Sights and Sounds of Stockton. The Delta College media students, all of whom are from the area and live in the various quadrants of our city, fanned out into the community to gather pictures and videos of their daily environment. They brought the raw footage to class and collaborated to edit the “sights” of Stockton into a feature approximately ten to twelve minutes long. Wineglass visited Stockton several times to get a feel for the area, and he worked with the students on the overall scope of the project as well as details of compilation to achieve a compelling outcome. He then composed the accompanying symphonic score for tonight’s live performance with the Stockton Symphony. This week he has also been meeting with composition students to discuss the composition process and how a composer works with visual components, and he engaged in a public forum with students and members of our community to discuss his work on this project. Winner of three Daytime Emmy Awards and recipient of four additional Emmy nominations, John Wineglass has performed on five continents, before five U.S.
