    NATIVE AMERICAN ELEMENTS IN PIANO REPERTOIRE BY THE INDIANIST AND PRESENT-DAY NATIVE AMERICAN COMPOSERS Lisa Cheryl Thomas, B.M.E., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2010 APPROVED: Adam Wodnicki, Major Professor Steven Friedson, Minor Professor Joseph Banowetz, Committee Member Jesse Eschbach, Chair of the Division of Keyboard Studies Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Michael Monticino, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Thomas, Lisa Cheryl. Native American Elements in Piano Repertoire by the Indianist and Present-Day Native American Composers. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2010, 78 pp., 25 musical examples, 6 illustrations, references, 66 titles. My paper defines and analyzes the use of Native American elements in classical piano repertoire that has been composed based on Native American tribal melodies, rhythms, and motifs. First, a historical background and survey of scholarly transcriptions of many tribal melodies, in chapter 1, explains the interest generated in American indigenous music by music scholars and composers. Chapter 2 defines and illustrates prominent Native American musical elements. Chapter 3 outlines the timing of seven factors that led to the beginning of a truly American concert idiom, music based on its own indigenous folk material. Chapter 4 analyzes examples of Native American inspired piano repertoire by the “Indianist” composers between 1890-1920 and other composers known primarily as “mainstream” composers. Chapter 5 proves that the interest in Native American elements as compositional material did not die out with the end of the “Indianist” movement around 1920, but has enjoyed a new creative activity in the area called “Classical Native” by current day Native American composers.

College-Conservatory of Music, University of Cincinnati, 2001 1844 Foxdale Court Crofton, MD 21114 410-721-0272 [email protected] ABSTRACT The Indianist Movement is a title many music historians use to define the surge of compositions related to or based on the music of Native Americans that took place from around 1890 to 1920. Hundreds of compositions written during this time incorporated various aspects of Indian folklore and music into Western art music. This movement resulted from many factors in our nation’s political and social history as well as a quest for a compositional voice that was uniquely American. At the same time, a wave of ethnologists began researching and studying Native Americans in an effort to document their culture. In music, the character piece was a very successful genre for composers to express themselves. It became a natural genre for composers of the Indianist Movement to explore for portraying musical themes and folklore of Native-American tribes.

  • Songs of Earth, Water, Fire And
    Songs of Earth, Water, Fire and Sky MUSIC OF: SAN JUAN PUEBLO, SENECA, NORTHERN ARAPAHO, NORTHERN PLAINS, CREEK, YUROK, NAVAJO, CHEROKEE, SOUTHERN PLAINS By Charlotte Heth INTRODUCTION The first Americans, the American Indians, have for centuries valued music as an integral part of their lives. Creation narratives, migration stories, magic formulas, and ancient ceremonial practices tell of music. Archaeologists have found Indian musical instruments and pictographs of singing and dancing from as early as A.D. 600 and from areas as far apart as the mounds of the Southeast and the cliff dwellings of the Southwest (Brown, 1971, 1974; Howard, 1968). Styles differ within tribal groups and among individuals. The variety of the music is infinite. The value of this music to the peoples was largely overlooked by most early writers: the travelers, the missionaries, and the soldiers. A young George Washington in 1748 recorded his impressions of an Indian dance in his diary in typical eighteenth-century fashion: There manner of Dauncing is as follows Viz They clear a Large Circle and make a Great Fire in y. middle then seats themselves around it y. Speaker makes a grand speech telling them in what Manner they are to Daunce after he has finished y. best Dauncer jumps up as one awaked out of a Sleep and runs and Jumps about y. Ring in a most comical Manner he is followed by y. Rest then begins there Musicians to Play ye Musick is a Pot half [full] of Water with a Deerskin streched over it as tight as it can and a goard with some Shott in it to Rattle and a Piece of an horses Tail tied to it to make it look fine y.

  • LINER NOTES Recorded Anthology of American Music, Inc
    BEACH, FOOTE, FARWELL, OREM New World Records 80542 The "Indianist" Movement in American Music by Gilbert Chase The "Indianist" movement in American musical composition that flourished from the 1880s to the 1920s had its antecedents in nineteenth-century Romanticism, with its cult of “the noble savage" nourished by such writers as Chateaubriand, James Fenimore Cooper, and Longfellow, whose Hiawatha was like a magnet for many musicians. On the stage, the famous actor Edwin Forrest starred in the drama Metamora (1828) as "the noble Indian chief," who leads his warriors in a desperate struggle for freedom—"Our Lands! Our Nation's Freedom!—Or the Grave." Romantic writers tended to identify the Indian with the grandeur of Nature. Chateaubriand, a Frenchman, in his novel of the "noble savage" Atala gushed on "the soul's delight to lose itself amidst the wild sublimities of Nature." Such writers often lost their heads but seldom risked their lives. The American wilderness, viewed as untamed, primitive, exotic, lured not only explorers and adventurers hut also scientists, artists, poets, novelists—and at least one musician who came to know at first hand "the magnificent wilds of Kentucky" about which Chateaubriand rhapsodized. This venturesome musician was Anthony Philip Heinrich (1781–1861), a native of Bohemia who emigrated to America in 1810. From 1817 to 1823 he lived in and around Lexington, Kentucky, calling himself "the Wildwood Troubador." According to a contemporary account: Heinrich passed several years of his life among the Indians that once inhabited Kentucky, and many of his compositions refer to these aboriginal companions. He is a species of musical Catlin, painting his dusky friends on the music staff instead of on the canvas, and composing laments, symphonies, dirges, and on the most intensely Indian subjects.

    Selected Non-Indianist Works of Charles Sanford Skilton: The Witch’s Daughter – A Cantata for Soprano and Baritone Soli, Chorus and Orchestra (1918) and Electra – Music of the Electra of Sophocles, Composed for Women’s Chorus and Orchestra (1920) by Evelyn Adele Garren Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music. ________________________________ Dr. Paul Laird, Chair ________________________________ Dr. Alicia Levin ________________________________ Dr. Bryan Kip Haaheim Date Defended: 23 January 2013 The Thesis Committee for Evelyn Adele Garren certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Selected Non-Indianist Works of Charles Sanford Skilton: The Witch’s Daughter – A Cantata for Soprano and Baritone Soli, Chorus and Orchestra (1918) and Electra – Music of the Electra of Sophocles, Composed for Women’s Chorus and Orchestra (1920) ________________________________ Dr. Paul Laird, Chair Date approved: 23 January 2013 ii Abstract Charles Sanford Skilton (1868-1941) is widely remembered as an exponent of the Indianist Movement in musical composition, which was important from about 1880 to 1920. Little investigation has been completed on his works outside of his Indianist interest, leaving many gaps in our knowledge of his music. While compiling materials for this thesis, it was observed that Skilton, now nearly forgotten as a serious art music composer, was well received as a composer, theorist, and pedagogue during his life. Much of his extant works are comparable to Indianist composers such as Arthur Farwell and Charles Wakefield Cadman. Skilton was known for more than just his Indianist works; his legacy as an American music pioneer is quite worthy of acknowledgement.
