    PIERRE COCHEREAU: A LEGACY OF IMPROVISATION AT NOTRE DAME DE PARIS By ©2019 Matt Gender Submitted to the graduate degree program in School of Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. ______________________________ Chairperson: Michael Bauer ______________________________ James Higdon ______________________________ Colin Roust ______________________________ David Alan Street ______________________________ Martin Bergee Date Defended: 05/15/19 The Dissertation Committee for Matt Gender certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PIERRE COCHEREAU: A LEGACY OF IMPROVISATION AT NOTRE DAME DE PARIS _____________________________ Chairperson: Michael Bauer Date Approved: 05/15/19 ii ABSTRACT Pierre Cochereau (1924–84) was the organist of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and an improviser of organ music in both concert and liturgical settings. He transformed the already established practices of improvising in the church into a modern artform. He was influenced by the teachers with whom he studied, including Marcel Dupré, Maurice Duruflé, and André Fleury. The legacy of modern organ improvisation that he established at Notre Dame in Paris, his synthesis of influences from significant figures in the French organ world, and his development of a personal and highly distinctive style make Cochereau’s recorded improvisations musically significant and worthy of transcription. The transcription of Cochereau’s recorded improvisations is a task that is seldom undertaken by organists or scholars. Thus, the published improvisations that have been transcribed are musically significant in their own way because of their relative scarcity in print and in concert performances. This project seeks to add to this published collection, giving organists another glimpse into the vast career of this colorful organist and composer.

  • The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art
    The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art By Copyright 2016 Song Yi Park Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Michael Bauer ________________________________ Dr. James Higdon ________________________________ Dr. Colin Roust ________________________________ Dr. Bradley Osborn ________________________________ Professor Jerel Hildig Date Defended: November 1, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Song Yi Park certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Michael Bauer Date approved: November 1, 2016 ii Abstract During the French Baroque period, the function of the organ was primarily to serve the liturgy. It was an integral part of both Mass and the office of Vespers. Throughout these liturgies the organ functioned in alteration with vocal music, including Gregorian chant, choral repertoire, and fauxbourdon. The longest, most glorious organ music occurred at the time of the offertory of the Mass. The Offertoire was the place where French composers could develop musical ideas over a longer stretch of time and use the full resources of the French Classic Grand jeu , the most colorful registration on the French Baroque organ. This document will survey Offertoire movements by French Baroque composers. I will begin with an introductory discussion of the role of the offertory in the Mass and the alternatim plan in use during the French Baroque era. Following this I will look at the tonal resources of the French organ as they are incorporated into French Offertoire movements.

  • Charles Tournemire Memoirs Edited by Marie- Louise Langlais
    Charles TOURNEMIRE MEMOIRS Edited by Marie-Louise Langlais Charles Tournemire Memoirs Edited by Marie- Louise Langlais Memoirs translated by Susan Landale “Introduction and Epilogue” translated by Shirley Parry Footnotes and additional Letters translated by Rebecca Oualid Translations harmonized by Shirley Parry Charles Tournemire in his forties (Odile Weber collection) Acknowledgements I wish to express my gratitude to the translators of this book whose role has been indispensable. It has been a difficult and delicate task, knowing that Charles Tournemire’s language was often complex; he sometimes even invented French words which, for a translator, can be a nightmare! In 2014, I edited the French long version of Tournemire’s Memoirs, but I then had the idea that an English translation of this text, limited to material relating to music and the world of the organ and organists, would be useful and welcomed. This is that work. To translate the Memoirs, Susan Landale came immediately to mind as an authority on Tournemire and also as someone perfectly bilingual. Born in Scotland, she came to France at the end of the 1950s to study with André Marchal, the famous French blind organist. Winner of the first International Organ Competition at the St Albans Festival, England, she has firmly established a worldwide reputation as a brilliant concert organist and a renowned teacher, in frequent demand for master classes, seminars, and as a juror for leading international organ competitions. She taught for a long time at the National Conservatoire in Rueil-Malmaison (France). She is currently Visiting Professor of organ at the Royal Academy of Music in London and organist at the Cathedral Saint-Louis des Invalides, Paris.
