  • Why Do Singers Sing in the Way They
    Why do singers sing in the way they do? Why, for example, is western classical singing so different from pop singing? How is it that Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe could sing together? These are the kinds of questions which John Potter, a singer of international repute and himself the master of many styles, poses in this fascinating book, which is effectively a history of singing style. He finds the reasons to be primarily ideological rather than specifically musical. His book identifies particular historical 'moments of change' in singing technique and style, and relates these to a three-stage theory of style based on the relationship of singing to text. There is a substantial section on meaning in singing, and a discussion of how the transmission of meaning is enabled or inhibited by different varieties of style or technique.

    JOAN LA BARBARA’S EARLY EXPLORATIONS OF THE VOICE by Samara Ripley B.Mus., Mount Allison University, 2014 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2016 © Samara Ripley, 2016 Abstract Experimental composer and performer Joan La Barbara treats the voice as a musical instrument. Through improvisation, she has developed an array of signature sounds, or extended vocal techniques, that extend the voice beyond traditional conceptions of Western classical singing. At times, her signature sounds are primal and unfamiliar, drawing upon extreme vocal registers and multiple simultaneous pitches. In 2003, La Barbara released Voice is the Original Instrument, a two-part album that comprises a selection of her earliest works from 1974 – 1980. The compositions on this album reveal La Barbara’s experimental approach to using the voice. Voice Piece: One-Note Internal Resonance Investigation explores the timbral palette within a single pitch. Circular Song plays with the necessity of a singer’s breath by vocalizing, and therefore removing, all audible inhalations and exhalations. Hear What I Feel brings the sense of touch into an improvisatory composition and performance experience. In October Music: Star Showers and Extraterrestrials, La Barbara moves past experimentation and layers her different sounds into a cohesive piece of music. This thesis is a study of La Barbara’s treatment of the voice in these four early works. I will frame my discussion with theories of the acousmatic by Mladen Dolar and Brian Kane and will also draw comparisons with Helmut Lachnemann’s musique concrète instrumentale works.

  • Didgeridoo Notation
    DIDGERIDOO NOTATION MARKOS KOUMOULAS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO DECEMBER 2018 © MARKOS KOUMOULAS, 2018 Abstract The didgeridoo is a unique musical instrument considered to be one of the world’s oldest instruments. It plays an integral part in Australian Aboriginal history, spirituality, rituals and ceremonies. Didgeridoo playing is solely based on oral tradition with varying techniques and interpretations among Aboriginal communities. For non-Aboriginal musicians and composers, the didgeridoo lacks the status of a “serious” instrument and is often viewed as a novelty instrument. This may be why there is a lack of didgeridoo notation and its misrepresentation in the western notation world. This paper presents a “Didgeridoo Notation Lexicon” which will allow non-didgeridoo composers to understand a readable legend and incorporate the didgeridoo into their compositions. The need for didgeridoo notation will be discussed and analyzed in comparison to previous notation attempts of composers and musicologists such as Sean O’Boyle, Liza Lim, Harold Kacanek and Wulfin Lieske. In the past, the inclusion of the didgeridoo in orchestral contexts has predominately been focussed on its associated Aboriginal imagery regarding dreamtime and spirituality. Conversely, my original composition fully integrates the didgeridoo within the orchestra as an equal instrument, not a focal point to advance a particular theme. I travelled to Cairns, Australia to interview world-renowned didgeridoo player, David Hudson. Hudson’s insight, experience and knowledge of the Aboriginal community supported the creation of a Didgeridoo Notation Lexicon.

Overtone Singing: History, Development, and Influence in Contemporary Music Jocelyn Black Fall 2018 Capstone California State University, Monterey Bay 12-2018 It is believed in Tuvan tradition that all things have a soul or are inhabited by spiritual entities. The Tuva, indigenous peoples of Siberia and central Asia, developed Khöömei, a sacred throat singing technique, to establish contact with these spiritual entities and assimilate their power through the imitation of natural sounds (Cosi and Tisato 3). The Tuvan people believed the ethereal two-toned sound is the way the spirits of nature prefer to use to reveal themselves and to communicate with other living things. Polyphonic overtone singing or throat singing is an elaborate voice technique that is most identified with parts of Central Asia, but it is also practiced in northern Canada by the Inuit Women and by the Xhosa people of South Africa where the technique takes on various styles and meanings.

  • The Use of Ancient Musics in the Contemporary Choral Music Context: Unusual Instruments and Vocal Techniques in the Modern Concert Setting Gerard J
    The Use of Ancient Musics in the Contemporary Choral Music Context: Unusual Instruments and Vocal Techniques in the Modern Concert Setting Gerard J. Yun Southern Utah University Utah, USA The boundaries of Western classical concert music are regularly expanded through the use of non-traditional musical elements. During the last decade sound bites of unusual, and once unheard of, musics have found their way into our everyday musical landscape: radio shows, rock concerts, recordings, advertisements, and movie soundtracks. These unusual musical elements are already beginning to appear in the contemporary world of the choral music. Choral conductors, arrangers, and composers are eager to incorporate these unusual instruments and vocal techniques into their repertoires. But locating, learning, and applying the instruments, techniques, and aesthetics of these musics in live choral performance can prove to be prohibitive. In both instrumental and choral music there has been a growing interest in using musical influences from harmonic overtone singing, the Australian didjeridu, the Native American flute, and the Japanese shakuhaehi; none of which are a regular part of the Western music curriculum. Each of these has, however, appeared in contemporary choral literature, often with dramatic results and enthusiastic praise. In this discussion, I refer to these instrumental and vocal forms as "ancient musics;" that is, originating from indigenous cultures, often with an oral tradition of pedagogical transmission, and with a performance history prior to or outside of recorded European history. Why include these unfamiliar instruments and techniques in our choral performances? Why are these ancient musics so compelling? First because they are unusual, sounding as if they are literally from another world or perhaps one we knew long ago but have long forgotten.
