  • The Evolution of the Performer Composer
    CONTEMPORARY APPROACHES TO LIVE COMPUTER MUSIC: THE EVOLUTION OF THE PERFORMER COMPOSER BY OWEN SKIPPER VALLIS A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2013 Supervisory Committee Dr. Ajay Kapur (New Zealand School of Music) Supervisor Dr. Dugal McKinnon (New Zealand School of Music) Co-Supervisor © OWEN VALLIS, 2013 NEW ZEALAND SCHOOL OF MUSIC ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines contemporary approaches to live computer music, and the impact they have on the evolution of the composer performer. How do online resources and communities impact the design and creation of new musical interfaces used for live computer music? Can we use machine learning to augment and extend the expressive potential of a single live musician? How can these tools be integrated into ensembles of computer musicians? Given these tools, can we understand the computer musician within the traditional context of acoustic instrumentalists, or do we require new concepts and taxonomies? Lastly, how do audiences perceive and understand these new technologies, and what does this mean for the connection between musician and audience? The focus of the research presented in this dissertation examines the application of current computing technology towards furthering the field of live computer music. This field is diverse and rich, with individual live computer musicians developing custom instruments and unique modes of performance. This diversity leads to the development of new models of performance, and the evolution of established approaches to live instrumental music. This research was conducted in several parts. The first section examines how online communities are iteratively developing interfaces for computer music.

    “Tone-color, movement, changing harmonic planes”: Cognition, Constraints and Conceptual Blends in Modernist Music The Pleasure of Modernism: Intention, Meaning, and the Compositional Avant-Garde, ed. Arved Ashby (Rochester: University of Rochester Press, 2004), 121–152. Amy Bauer I. Ligeti and the “Listenability” of Modernist Music György Ligeti has discussed his "micropolyphonic" music of the mid-1960s at some length, in an attempt to explain why its composed structure seems to bear no relation to its actual sound. Although works such as Lontano are based on strict canons, their compositional method assumes a listener will 'mishear' its structure: [In the large orchestral work Lontano] I composed . an extensively branching and yet strictly refined polyphony which, however, veers suddenly into something else. I don’t have a name for it and I don’t want to create a term for it. A kind of complex of tone-color, movement, changing harmonic planes. The polyphonic structure does not actually come through, you cannot hear it; it remains hidden in a microscopic underwater world, to us inaudible. I have retained melodic lines in the process of composition, they are governed by rules as strict as Palestrina's or those of the Flemish school, but the rules of polyphony are worked out by me. the polyphony is dissolved, like the harmony and the tone-color – to such an extent that it does not manifest itself, and yet it is there, just beneath the threshold.1 In the above passages, Ligeti appears to ally himself with modernists such as Boulez and Babbit, composers who use twelve-tone and other methods to systematically organize pitch structure.

  • Prolongation, Expanding Variation, and Pitch Hierarchy: a Study of Fred Lerdahl’S Waves and Coffin Hollow
    PROLONGATION, EXPANDING VARIATION, AND PITCH HIERARCHY: A STUDY OF FRED LERDAHL’S WAVES AND COFFIN HOLLOW J. Corey Knoll A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC December 2006 Committee: Nora Engebretsen, Advisor Mikel Kuehn, Advisor William Lake Marilyn Shrude ii ABSTRACT Mikel Kuehn, Co-Advisor Nora Engebretsen, Co-Advisor This thesis consists of two independent yet interrelated portions. The theory portion explores connections between Fred Lerdahl’s theoretical and compositional output by examining his work Waves in relation to his theoretical writings, primarily A Generative Theory of Tonal Music and “Tonal Pitch Space.” The theories together form a generative theory of tonal music that strives to create a musical grammar. “Tonal Pitch Space” defines a hierarchy among pitches and chords within and across tonal regions. Lerdahl uses these ideas in Waves, which is in the key of D minor. All other pitch classes, and likewise all other chords and tonal regions, are elaborations of the tonic D. The initial D tonic statement, called a flag motive because it heralds each variation, is the fundamental construct in Waves. Just as all other pitches elaborate D, all other motives in Waves are elaborations of the flag motive. Thus rich hierarchies are established. Lerdahl also incorporates ideas from GTTM into his compositional process. GTTM focuses on four categories of event hierarchies: grouping and metrical structures and time-span and prolongational reductions. These four hierarchies and a set of stability conditions all interact with one another to form a comprehensive musical grammar.

  • How the Computer Assists Composers: a Survey of Contemporary Practise
    COVER SHEET This is the author-version of article published as: Brown, Andrew (2001) How the computer assists composers: A survey of contemporary practise. In Knowles, Julian, Eds. Proceedings Australasian Computer Music Conference, pages pp. 9-16, University of Western Sydney. Accessed from http://eprints.qut.edu.au Copyright 2001 Andrew R. Brown How the computer assists composers: A survey of contemporary practise. Andrew R. Brown Queensland University of Technology Victoria Park Road Kelvin Grove, 4059 Brisbane, Australia [email protected] Abstract With the increased prevalence of the computer as a compositional tool comes an expansion of the musical genres that constitute “computer music.” Traditionally computer music composition was a marginal practice, dominated by a desire to use the computer to create novel music by freeing the composer from the limitations of traditional mediums. As we enter a new millennium the use of the computer for music making is common place and therefore the need to consider the impact of the computer on music composition is greater than ever. This paper will examine the ways in which the computer assists the composer and in doing so will shed light on the complex relationship between the composer and computer, and indicate trends in computer assisted compositional practice. In particular, I will suggest that the computer assists the composer in three ways, (i) by defining the range of compositional choices available, (ii) by acting as a sounding board that reflects back the composers ideas, and (iii) by being a vehicle that enables composers to realise their musical ideas. Introduction Computers are currently the dominant tool assisting composers in their compositional practice, and the diversity of software and hardware configurations means that the ways in which computers support the compositional process are numerous.

  • Modal Pitch Space
    Modal pitch space COSTAS TSOUGRAS Affiliation: Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Faculty of Fine Arts, School of Music Abstract The Tonal Pitch Space Theory was introduced in 1988 by Fred Lerdahl as an expansion of the Generative Theory of Tonal Music with the purpose of providing explicit stability conditions and optimally clarified preference rules for the construction of GTTM's Time-Span Reduction and Prolongational Reduction analysis parts. The Diatonic Pitch Space model is based largely on experimental work in the Music Psychology field, mainly by Krumhansl and Deutch & Feroe and conforms successfully to models from the Music Theory field, mainly by Weber, Riemann, Schoenberg and Lewin. This paper explores the Pitch Space of the seven diatonic modes. The model developed comes up as an expansion and adaptation of Fred Lerdahl’s Tonal Pitch Space model, with the purpose of being able to describe more accurately the situations involved in the analysis of diatonic modal music. The original methodology and set of algebraic calculating formulas is kept, but it is applied on Modal instead of Tonal Space, considering the latter to be a subset of the former. After the calculation of the chordal and regional space algebraic representations, geometrical representations of the Modal Pitch Space model are attempted. 1. Introduction - Background This paper examines the Pitch Space of the seven diatonic modes. The model emerges as an expansion and adaptation of Fred Lerdahl’s Tonal Pitch Space, with the purpose of describing more accurately the situations involved in the analysis of diatonic modal music. The original methodology and set of algebraic calculating formulas is retained, but it is applied to Modal instead of Tonal Diatonic Space, considering the latter a subset of the former.
