Fong / Gerrnan: E. Jandl / arr. JIP) MAURICIO KAGEL Atem (für einen Bläser), 1969 GEORGES APERGHIS from: récitations pour une voix seule, 1977/8 'Silence' bespielt wegweisende Werke des 20 Jh.: John Cages berühmter 'Vortrag uber Nichts' wird im englischen Original bzw. in der kongenialen Übersetzung Ernst Jandls (deutsch) bzw. Monique Fongs (frz.) in einer Fassung von JIP für Stimme und Metronom präsentiert, welche die Strukturelemente des Stucks spielerisch hör- und sichtbar macht. In Cage'scher Manier werden darüber, davor und danach Stücke von Kagel, Schnebel, Aperghis und Berio gelegt, die notationstechnisch, formal und klanglich musikhistorisch prägend für das 20./21. Jh. sind. Gerade Cages Vortrag ist live ausserst selten zu hören, und ist in der Bearbeitung von UMS 'n JIP besonders reizvoll ausgearbeitet. Das Programm wurde 2007 am Schweizerischen Tonkünstlerfest im Theaterhaus Gessnerallee Zurich uraufgeführt und wurde bisher 40 Mal in 8 Ländern, unter anderem am Avignon Festival (Palais Royal / Theatre Notre Dame), an den Latvian New Music Days, Rostov na Donu (RUS / Museum für zeitgenössische Kunst)), am Musikpodium der Stadt Zürich, am ITU MIAM Istanbul, am Festival Mixtur Barcelona, am Avgo Music Village Thessaloniki, am Festival ME_MMIX Palma sowie bei Roaring Hooves in der Mongolei aufgeführt. Dieter Schnebel - Born in Lahr/Baden in 1930. In 1976 Schnebel was appointed professor of experimental music and musicology at the Berlin Hochschule der Künste where he taught until his retirement from the academic chair in 1995. By founding the theatre group "Die Maulwerker", Schnebel systemized his open concept of work of spatially acting instruments and voices of unconventionally entering musicians, a concept which can only partly be attributed to "Fluxus". http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieter_Schnebel Georges Aperghis - born in Athens in 1945. Since settling in Paris in 1963 he has led an original and independent career, dividing his time between instrumental or vocal compositions, musical theater and opera. In 1976, he founded the Atelier Théâtre et Musique (ATEM). This structure allowed for a complete renewal of his compositional activity, making use of musicians as well as actors : his shows are inspired by everyday life, events in society are transformed into a world of poetry, a world often absurd and satirical — Récitations (1978), Jojo (1990), Sextuor (1993), Commentaires (1996) — récitations has become a "superhit" among contemporary vocal compositions. www.aperghis.com John Cage - Cage's 'Lecture on Nothing', a reading from 1950, signals a shift in his thinking on silence. He realizes that the important role of silence regarding musical structure does not yet establish a full recognition of its positive qualities. 'What we require is silence; but what silence requires is that I go on talking ... But now there are silences and the words make help make the silences ... We need not fear the silences, we may love them' Silence is no longer the absence of sounds; silence itself consists of sounds. Silence begets sounds. Through the intertwining of silence and sound, their mutual penetrability now becomes appreciated. Each retains a part of its antipode; each requires the other as its frame. The necessary interdependency between sound and silence relates to two principal aspects: silence is not only the precondition for sound - this means that silence contains sound - every sound in turn harbors silence as well. Sound and silence develop in a parallel way without mutual exclusion; the one is always already present in the other. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cage Mauricio Kagel - A retired musician for long time dovotes himself to the study of the same piece, meanwhile he's maniacal with the maintenance of his instrument. He keeps on trying until a very sweet phrase is finally played and frees him for ever. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauricio_Kagel Luciano Berio (1925-2003) est réputé pour ses travaux expérimentaux et son travail de pionnier dans la musique électroacoustique. Il étudia au Conservatoire Giuseppe Verdi de Milan chez Giulio Cesare Paribeni et Giorgio Federico Ghedini. C'est à cette époque qu'il découvre les compositeurs modernes de la seconde école de Vienne (Schönberg, Berg, Webern), mais aussi Bartok, Stravinski, Hindemith et Milhaud. Blessé à la main, il ne peut continuer ses études de piano et gagne sa vie comme accompagnateur de classes de chant. Il fait ainsi la connaissance de la soprano américaine Cathy Berberian qu'il épousa en 1950. En 1951, il se rendit aux États-Unis à Tanglewood pour étudier chez Dallapiccola qui poussa son intérêt vers les principes du sérialisme. Il participa aux Ferienkurse für Neue Musik à Darmstadt où il fit la connaissance de Boulez, Stockhausen, Ligeti et Kagel. Il commença à s’intéresser à la musique électronique et fonda en 1954 à Milan le Studio di Fonologia musicale avec Maderna et Nono. Il y invita de nombreux compositeurs comme Henri Pousseur et John Cage. Entre autres, il devint éditeur d’une revue consacrée à la musique expérimentale, les Incontri Musicali. En 1960, il retourna à Tanglewood et, à l'invitation de Milhaud en 1962, il devint professeur au Mills College à Oakland, Californie. À partir de 1965, il enseigna à l'université Harvard et à la Juilliard School of Music où il fonda le Juilliard Ensemble qui se consacre à la musique contemporaine (New York, 1967). En 1966, il gagne le « Prix Italia » pour son œuvre Laborintus II. En 1968 sera présentée au public son œuvre la plus marquante, la Sinfonia. De 1974 à 1980, il fut directeur du département d’acoustique de l’IRCAM à Paris. À Florence, il fonda, en 1987, le Tempo Reale, un centre de même orientation que l'IRCAM. De 1994 à 2000, il fut compositeur en résidence à Harvard. UMS 'n JIP ['umsnjip].

  • Musik Gibt Es Nicht. Musik Soll Entstehen Im Kopf Des Zuschauers / Zuhörers
    Musik gibt es nicht. Musik soll entstehen im Kopf des Zuschauers / Zuhörers. Dieter Schnebels Instrumentales Theater von Volker Straebel1 Als der Komponist Dieter Schnebel 1966 bei den Darmstädter Ferienkursen für Neue Musik einen Vortrag über Sichtbare Musik2 hielt, konnte er sich eines Publikums gewiss sein, dessen Begriff davon, was Musik eigentlich sei, sich nicht auf das Akustische beschränkte. Die Diskussionen auf diesen jährlichen Treffen der europäischen Nachkriegsavantgarde waren lange geprägt gewesen von den mathematischen und physikalischen Entwürfen, die die serielle und Elektronische Musik hervorgebracht hatten. Diesen lag die Idee zugrunde, alle klanglichen und zeitlichen Aspekte eines Musikwerkes in parametrisierbaren Größen zu beschreiben und sie in Anlehnung an die Zwölftonkomposition mittels Zahlenreihen kompositorisch zu bestimmen. Pierre Boulez und Karlheinz Stockhausen wurden zu Protagonisten einer Komponistengeneration, die neben Tonhöhe, Dauer und Lautstärke bald auch komplexere musikalische Zusammenhänge wie Klangfarbe, Ereignisdichte oder Raumdisposition seriell organisierte. Aus der Rückschau wirken – anders als in ihrer Entstehungszeit – die frühen seriellen Kompositionen wie beispielsweise Karlheinz Stockhausens Zeitmaße für Blasquintett von 1956 weniger skandalös und kaum ausschließlich mathematisch determiniert. Die musikalische Erfahrung dürfte heute die kompositionstechnische Würdigung der hier bis zu fünf gleichzeitig ablaufenden Zeitschichten überwiegen. Dennoch ist offensichtlich, dass sich die ästhetische

    Dossier / Dosier / Dossiê “Analysis Beyond Notation in XXth and XXIst Century Music” Alessandro Bratus and Marco Lutzu (Guest editors) The Composition of Experience in the Musical-holistic Art of Dario Buccino Stefano Lombardi Vallauri Libera Università di Lingue e Comunicazione, Italy [email protected] Abstract Nowadays music is no longer exclusively a performative art: as in the case of electronic music, it can also be produced completely by means of technology, without the live bodily action of an instrumentalist. With respect to this aesthetic paradigm, the Italian composer Dario Buccino (Rome, 1968) does exactly the opposite, creating a music which is even hyper-performative, in that it increases to the highest degree the requirements regarding the performing subject's awareness and free intentionality, and minimizes (human) automaticity. To this end he has developed an original notation system, with many graphical ad hoc solutions, where musical symbols are integrated with indications about the proprioceptive attitude and the physical actions of the performer (often kindred to those of experimental theatre, dance, and body art), above all about the experiences to be felt when playing. Buccino goes farther on the way of Karlheinz Stockhausen’s “intuitive music” (about 1968-70), Dieter Schnebel's Maulwerke (1968-74), Helmut Lachenmann’s “musique concrète instrumentale”, Brian Ferneyhough’s extreme demand for effort, and radicalises an approach which instead is typical of other musical genres, where form at all levels arises in composition (often extemporaneous) from the singular physical relationship of the interpreter with the instrument.

  • Johannes Picht Laudatio Für Dieter Schnebel Zur Verleihung Des
    Johannes Picht Laudatio für Dieter Schnebel Zur Verleihung des Sigmund- Freud- Kultur- Preises 2011 der DPV und der DPG Dieter Schnebel und die Psychoanalyse (für „Musik & Ästhetik“) Im Juni 2011 wurde Dieter Schnebel der Sigmund-Freud-Kulturpreis verliehen.1 Die Auszeich- nung macht darauf aufmerksam, dass Schnebel sich über weite Strecken seines Lebens von der Psychoanalyse hat begleiten lassen und dass hiervon wichtige Impulse für sein Werk und seine theoretischen Konzeptionen ausgegangen sind. Anlass genug, diese Einflüsse nachzu- zeichnen und aus Sicht eines Psychoanalytikers darauf zu antworten. Der 70-jährige Schnebel hat im Jahr 2000, als ihm der Tod in Gestalt eines Herzinfarkts schon begegnet war, seine eigene Vita als Kunstwerk gestaltet. Entstanden ist nicht eine Selbststili- sierung, sondern das Protokoll eines Eingebrachtseins in die Zeit und Geformtwerdens aus ihr, eine Spurenschrift des Sichereignens und Zusammentreffens. Unter dem Titel Signatur finden sich hier sogenannte Lebensblätter: eine Collagenfolge aus bunten, sich verflechten- den Linien, Namen, Bildern, Textausschnitten und Partiturschnipseln, ein – wie er dazu schreibt - Versuch, die Unterschrift des Lebens zeichnerisch bildhaft zu symbolisieren.2 Blättert man in diesem Lebenslaub, dann entsteht im Kopf eine Polyphonie, nicht hörbar, aber doch Musik. Dass Musik nicht nur das Hörbare oder gar nur das zu Gehör Gebrachte umfasst, sondern alles Bewegte und in Bewegung Bringende in und aus der Welt, in und aus den Köpfen und Leibern der an ihr, der Musik wie der Welt, Beteiligten, und dass Musik die an ihr Beteiligten zu Teilen und einander Zu-Teilenden werden lässt – diesen Horizont hatte 1 Der Sigmund-Freud-Kulturpreis wird gemeinsam von den beiden großen deutschen psychoanalytischen Fachgesellschaften (Deutsche Psychoanalytische Gesellschaft und Deutsche Psychoanalytische Vereinigung) alle zwei Jahre an Nichtpsychoanalytiker verliehen, die die Psychoanalyse in kreativ-kritischer Weise aufnehmen und verwenden.

  • Free Improvisation As a Performance Technique: Group Creativity and Interpreting Graphic Scores
    Free Improvisation as a Performance Technique: Group Creativity and Interpreting Graphic Scores Edward NEEMAN Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Musical Arts degree, The Juilliard School May 2014 2014 Edward Neeman This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License. ABSTRACT The late 1950s and 1960s saw the formation of groups of musicians devoted to free improvisation. These groups deliberately excluded pre-existing musical idioms and focused on the nature of improvisation and the processes involved in spontaneously inventing music and interacting as a group. The history, recordings, and writings of this free improvisation movement is a valuable source for prospective improvisers and demonstrates that free improvisation can be a serious discipline capable of developing meaningful and powerful musical discourse. The techniques that its practitioners developed to stimulate innovation and to explore the interactive possibilities of group creativity can be used in many musical and interdisciplinary applications. The interpretation of indeterminate graphic scores is one such application. Classical musicians are particularly suited to meeting the interpretational challenges of these works, and an openness to improvisational approaches has the potential to reap great rewards in the realization of these neglected works. The work of Roman Haubenstock- Ramati, and particularly his Decisions (1959–1961) for unspecified sound sources, serves as an example through analysis of its structure and a critical evaluation of performative possibilities. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE The Australian-American pianist Edward Neeman has won first prizes in the Rodrigo and Carlet international piano competitions and has performed with orchestras including the Prague Philharmonic, the Madrid Philharmonic, the Sydney Symphony, Melbourne Symphony, West Australia Symphony, Canberra Symphony, and The Queensland Orchestra.
