  • Research and Technology in the Opera Der Sprung Georg Hajdu Hochschule Für Musik Und Theater Hamburg
    Research and Technology in the Opera Der Sprung Georg Hajdu Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg Abstract In this paper the opera Der Sprung – Beschreibung einer Oper is being dicussed in light of its biographical, historical, musical and technological contexts. The opera is the result of a unique collaboration between librettist Thomas Brasch and the author. Its harmonic and formal structure is entirely generated from a short motto by Brasch, using advanced technology for spectral analysis and computer composition. Historically, the opera could be characterized as a late example of the exploratory phase in computer music. Dieser Aufsatz diskutiert die Oper Der Sprung – Beschreibung einer Oper in ihren biographischen, historischen, musikalischen und technologischen Kontexten. Die Oper ist das Resultat einer außergewöhnlichern Zusammenarbeit zwischen dem Librettisten Thomas Brasch und dem Autor. Ihre harmonische und formale Struktur wurde mit fortgeschrittenen Verfahren zur Spektralanalyse und Computer-unterstützter Komposition aus einem kurzen Motto Braschs abgeleitet. Geschichtlich kann die Oper als spätes Beispiel der explorativen Phase in der Computermusik bezeichnet werden. 1. Introduction The opera Der Sprung – Beschreibung einer Oper was the result of several intersecting lines - lines of biographical, historical, technological and scientific relevance with aspects of serendipity and hard work. In the following I will trace these lines and reconstruct the making of this piece, which took a decade to conceive and 4 years to complete. The years 1984 to 1998 mark the beginning and end of this process, in which I mutated from a molecular biologist with a second major in music into a professional composer and music- school professor with continuous strong interests in computer technology and science.

  • Analytical Techniques of Electroacoustic Music”
    David Huff Proposal for “Analytical Techniques of Electroacoustic Music” Introduction The foundations of musical analysis have long been tested by the weight of music from the periods of tonal practice. There is a rich and expansive repertory of techniques from which the analyst may choose in approaching music composed in the tonal tradition of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries. The Twentieth Century saw an expansion of compositional strategies, which in turn charged theorists and musicologists with the tasks of developing and adopting new methods of analysis. Analysts met these challenges by employing a range of techniques nearly as varied as the post-tonal compositions themselves. Pitch-class set theory and twelve-tone serial techniques have been the most widely adopted analytical methods for the post- tonal repertory, representing rigorous, quasi-scientific approaches to what is often extremely complex music. This expansion of compositional and analytical techniques coincided with the development of technology that eventually made its way into the hands of composers. Technology’s influence on composition in the mid-Twentieth Century formed in the concurrent strands of musique concrète and elektronische Musik, one concerned with the use of recorded sound as a malleable medium, the other with generating sounds themselves through electronic means. The two approaches eventually converged, with varying degrees of cohesion, into what is generally referred to as electroacoustic music.1 1 Leigh Landy discusses various titles applied to strands of electronic-based music in Landy 2006. While the proposed dissertation will summarize these terminological aspects the present proposal will simply use the term “electroacoustic music” to mean any music composed with the full or partial use of electronic means.

Each social group has a strong feeling of in-music and out-music. This extends to ethnic groups and nadons'. While music historians can find traces of national musical dis- tinctions in cultures as early as ancient Greece, among the most striking examples are the keyboard pieces Bach dubbed French Suites or Italian Concerto. What's remarkable about these compositions is that Bach — well aware of national musical characteristics — synthesized a musical style, which could be considered a manifestation of European globaliza- in the Baroque era.

  • Starting Over – Chances Afforded by a New Scale
    127 Starting Over – Chances Afforded by a New Scale Nora-Louise Müller, Konstantina Orlandatou and Georg Hajdu 1 Introduction The following text represents the results of over two decades of research into the Bohlen- Pierce scale, which started when in 1991 one of the authors, Georg Hajdu, realized this non-octave scale on Adrian Freed’s Reson8 synthesizer in a computer science seminar at UC Berkeley. It further sharpened his awareness of its significance when Manfred Schroeder, world-famous acoustician and close friend of Mathews’ and Pierce’s approached him about the scale at the ICMPC conference1 in Los Angeles in the same year. He stayed true to the scale by using it for a scene in his opera Der Sprung – Beschreibung einer Oper written in 1994. An acoustic Bohlen-Pierce clarinet would have been badly needed, but it took another ten years, before someone capable of tackling the project was found: Stephen Fox, physicist and clarinet builder from Toronto finally offered first BP clarinets for sale in early 20062. Two concerts that ensued ushered in the acoustic BP era, one performed by the Ontario-based TranSpectra group3 on March 20, 2008 including a piece by Todd Harrop and the other performed by clarinetist and co- author Nora-Louise Müller and her friend, the late Anna Bardeli, with pieces by composition faculty of the Hamburg University of Music and Theater (HfMT)4. Both concerts were very encouraging and inspired Hajdu to propose to the Goethe Institute in Boston a symposium entirely dedicated to the scale, to which all the key figures in the field were supposed to give an account of their research, developments and artistic work5.
