JACOBS California State University-Dominguez Hills ORLANDO JACINTO GARCIA The SCI Committee on Women and Minorities had its first meeting at a luncheon CHARLES ARGERSINGER during the annual conference at the University of Alabama. Many topics were discussed LEWIS ROSENGARTEN in our attempts to include more women and minority members into the Society. One of DIANE THOME the most practical suggestions made ~was that we begin a mentoring program to assist MICHAEL SCHELLE younger members as they wend their way through academia or the professional music Paper presentations were given by: world. Other societies such as AMS, CMS and the Sonneck Society are beginning similar programs, and the idea seems to have broad support, especially from current women ROBERT ROLLIN members of SCI. I believe men have been a little slow, and I'm certainly one of them, DANIEL C. ADAMS to realize how important women and minorities would regard such a program. GEORGE BELDEN TIMOTHY KLOTH I have written to all regional co-chairs advising them of this new development and ANN STIMSON providing them with information about the,program. To quote from a Barbara Maris PETER SUSSER proposal from CMS, mentoring has to do with "what is expected within the profession, dealing with instructional matters, continuing professional growth, submitting research proposals, developing performance opportunities, balancing personal and professional needs, writing for professional journals, preparing materials for promotion reviews, establishing effective networks on local and national levels, and juggling institutional SCI Newsletter expectations for teaching/service/creative work." Ting Ho, Editor Quite a list, but of course every mentee will not need all of that. I've asked the Department of Music co-chairs to identify persons who would be likely to participate in such a program, but Montclair State College I'm also using this article to solicit names of interested members. Elizabeth Vercoe, a Upper Montclair, NJ 07043 committee member, is about to launch such a program in Region I, and Max Lifchitz, Other Business: co-chair of Region II has already volunteered his services for the program.

    ELECTRONIC MUSIC HISTORY THROUGH THE EVERYDAY: THE RAI STUDIO DI FONOLOGIA (1954–83) Joanna Evelyn Helms A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Andrea F. Bohlman Mark Evan Bonds Tim Carter Mark Katz Lee Weisert © 2020 Joanna Evelyn Helms ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joanna Evelyn Helms: Electronic Music History through the Everyday: The RAI Studio di Fonologia (1954–83) (Under the direction of Andrea F. Bohlman) My dissertation analyzes cultural production at the Studio di Fonologia (SdF), an electronic music studio operated by Italian state media network Radiotelevisione Italiana (RAI) in Milan from 1955 to 1983. At the SdF, composers produced music and sound effects for radio dramas, television documentaries, stage and film operas, and musical works for concert audiences. Much research on the SdF centers on the art-music outputs of a select group of internationally prestigious Italian composers (namely Luciano Berio, Bruno Maderna, and Luigi Nono), offering limited windows into the social life, technological everyday, and collaborative discourse that characterized the institution during its nearly three decades of continuous operation. This preference reflects a larger trend within postwar electronic music histories to emphasize the production of a core group of intellectuals—mostly art-music composers—at a few key sites such as Paris, Cologne, and New York. Through close archival reading, I reconstruct the social conditions of work in the SdF, as well as ways in which changes in its output over time reflected changes in institutional priorities at RAI.

  • Maestro D'arte E Di Vita
    G IADA V IVIANI Maestro d’arte e di vita. Modelli e percorsi della riflessione teorica di Camillo Togni su Arnold Schönberg roverbiale è la strenua ricerca d’ordine condotta per tutta la vita da Camillo Togni, impostagli, secondo le sue stesse ricostruzioni a posteriori, dalla ferrea disciplina cui Pdall’età di tredici anni si era dovuto sottoporre per riuscire a convivere con il «bleicher Geselle» («pallido compagno») del diabete, ossia con il memento mori che, a partire dalla diagnosi dei medici, avrebbe pungolato la sua intera attività artistica e intellettuale. 1 In alcune dichiarazioni rilasciate tra gli anni ’80 e ’90, il compositore fa infatti coincidere con l’inizio della malattia – o meglio, della cura – la propria svolta decisiva verso quell’ideale di impegno e rigore che ne permeerà tanto l’esistenza quanto l’espressione arti- stica, incarnandosi sul piano della scrittura musicale in un’adesione assoluta, seppur mai acritica, al metodo della composizione seriale: Una disciplina ferrea richiesta dalla mia sopravvivenza di giorno in giorno e l’assiduità con cui perseguivo la cura insulinica l’ho applicata alla serie. Mi ero forgiato un metodo. Questo biograficamente è vero, perché io ho cominciato a studiare sul serio, anche a scuola, proprio allora. Il modo di curarmi mi ha insegnato una certa disciplina.2 Al di là dell’interesse aneddotico di simili affermazioni, costituisce un dato essen- ziale per l’esegesi togniana la sua personale concezione del «metodo compositivo dodecafo- nico» come «l’unico ausilio […] per un musicista dei nostri tempi per mettere in ordine le proprie idee», la quale, formulata già nel 1951 in una lettera indirizzata al compositore svedese Bengt Hambraeus,3 ha rappresentato per tutta la sua vita una costante cruciale del pensiero del compositore.

  • Thesis Submission
    Rebuilding a Culture: Studies in Italian Music after Fascism, 1943-1953 Peter Roderick PhD Music Department of Music, University of York March 2010 Abstract The devastation enacted on the Italian nation by Mussolini’s ventennio and the Second World War had cultural as well as political effects. Combined with the fading careers of the leading generazione dell’ottanta composers (Alfredo Casella, Gian Francesco Malipiero and Ildebrando Pizzetti), it led to a historical moment of perceived crisis and artistic vulnerability within Italian contemporary music. Yet by 1953, dodecaphony had swept the artistic establishment, musical theatre was beginning a renaissance, Italian composers featured prominently at the Darmstadt Ferienkurse , Milan was a pioneering frontier for electronic composition, and contemporary music journals and concerts had become major cultural loci. What happened to effect these monumental stylistic and historical transitions? In addressing this question, this thesis provides a series of studies on music and the politics of musical culture in this ten-year period. It charts Italy’s musical journey from the cultural destruction of the post-war period to its role in the early fifties within the meteoric international rise of the avant-garde artist as institutionally and governmentally-endorsed superman. Integrating stylistic and aesthetic analysis within a historicist framework, its chapters deal with topics such as the collective memory of fascism, internationalism, anti- fascist reaction, the appropriation of serialist aesthetics, the nature of Italian modernism in the ‘aftermath’, the Italian realist/formalist debates, the contradictory politics of musical ‘commitment’, and the growth of a ‘new-music’ culture. In demonstrating how the conflict of the Second World War and its diverse aftermath precipitated a pluralistic and increasingly avant-garde musical society in Italy, this study offers new insights into the transition between pre- and post-war modernist aesthetics and brings musicological focus onto an important but little-studied era.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-03329-0 - New Music at Darmstadt: Nono, Stockhausen, Cage, and Boulez Martin Iddon Frontmatter More information New Music at Darmstadt New Music at Darmstadt explores the rise and fall of the so-called ‘Darmstadt School’, through a wealth of primary sources and analytical commentary. Martin Iddon’s book examines the creation of the Darmstadt New Music Courses and the slow development and subsequent collapse of the idea of the Darmstadt School, showing how participants in the West German new music scene, including Herbert Eimert and a range of journalistic commentators, created an image of a coherent entity, despite the very diverse range of compositional practices on display at the courses. The book also explores the collapse of the seeming collegiality of the Darmstadt composers, which crystallised around the arrival there in 1958 of the most famous, and notorious, of all post-war composers, John Cage, an event that, Carl Dahlhaus opined, ‘swept across the European avant-garde like a natural disaster’. MARTIN IDDON is Associate Professor of Music at the University of Leeds. He previously lectured at University College Cork and Lancaster University, and studied composition and musicology at the universities of Durham and Cambridge. His musicological research largely focusses on post-war music in Germany and the United States of America, and has been published in numerous leading journals, including Musical Quarterly, twentieth-century music,andContemporary Music Review.His music has been performed in Europe, North America, and Australasia, and has been featured on BBC Radio 3, Radio New Zealand, and the Österreichischer Rundfunk.

    Character and Form by Way of Integral Serialism: An Analysis of Fantasia concertante (1957) by Camillo Togni* Christoph Neidhöfer McGill University, Montreal From its early adoption of twelve-tone technique in the 1940s until the mid 1950s the music of Camillo Togni (1922–1993) maintained a strong stylistic a!nity with the sound world of the Second Viennese School, particularly with the works of Schoenberg. As was typical for the music of many composers of Togni’s generation, the continuous expansion in the 1950s of serial technique into various dimensions beyond pitch led to a gradual severing of stylistic ties with the Viennese composers. Whereas works such as Togni’s Sonata for "ute and piano from 1953 and the Sonata for violin and piano from 1954–1955, both of which subject pitch and rhythm to serial treatment, still largely use phrase structures modelled on classical formal function the way we #nd them in the music of the Schoenberg school, Togni markedly cuts back on this kind of thematicism in his music from the second half of the decade. $e single-movement concerto for "ute and string orchestra Fantasia concertante, composed in 1956–1957, is a prime example for this shift in his style. $e work no longer presents recurring melodic ‘themes’. Its textures no longer project clearly distinguishable superimposed ‘lines’ as was the case in much of Togni’s earlier music. Furthermore, we hardly ever hear a recognisable metric 47 ARCHIVAL NOTES Sources and Research from the Institute of Music, No. 3 (2018) © Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Venezia ISSN 2499-832X CHRISTOPH NEIDHÖFER pulse in this 9½-minute piece, and its musical characters generally no longer fall into the kinds of ‘topics’ familiar from earlier twelve-tone expressionism.
