This dissertation consists of two parts, both of

which share a common link through their inspiration from

Hinduism. Part I is an analysis of Hovhaness* s Symphony

Vo. 19 (Vishnu). Part II is an original composition in

three movements for orchestra entitled Kshetra.1 na .

Hovhaness*s Symphony Vo. 19 (Vishnu?. composed between

July and August, 1966, in Luzern, Switzerland, is a single

movement work of tripartite structure for symphony

orchestra. The title, Vishnu, refers to the second person

of the Hindu trinity, whose name is a remarkable metaphor

for the explosive energies and sustaining forces of the

universe. The work is largely impressionistic; Hovhaness

achieves a great wealth of "atmospheric** effects, highly

suggestive of cosmic space and events (viz., exploding

galaxies, vast emptiness and timelessness). Hovhaness is

very much a mystic, and this one quality is poignantly

manifested in Vishnu through the many Eastern and mesmeric

devices employed in the work.

In the following analysis the various parameters of

form, tonality and modality, "senza misura" practices,

melody, and vertical sonority found in Hovhaness’s 19th

symphony are described in depth. Rhythmic organization is

examined in connection with "senza misura" practices and

melody. Orchestral color, instead of being examined

separately, is described in connection with the above

parameters. Little attempt is made to examine the impact

of Hovhaness* s mysticism. JCany Eastern devices employed

in the work are highly evocative of a mystical atmosphere

as mentioned above; however, expressive effect is a highly

subjective matter, and varies markedly from one listener

to another. Vhile it is Hovhaness*s self professed aim to

express spiritual and transcendent qualities in his music,

this is a problem of aesthetics which defies the

fragmented analytical approach which characterizes the

present study.

The symphony is scored for the following instruments:

3 flutes (piccolo), 2 oboes, English horn, 2 clarinets,

bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, contrabassoon, 4 horns, 3

trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, timpani, bass drum, giant tarn

tarn, glockenspiel, 2 vibraphones and 2 chimes, 2 harps,

celesta and .

The second part of the dissertation, Kshetra.1 na . is an

original orchestral composition in three movements by the

author. The title, Kshetra.1 na . is a Sanskrit term meaning

knower of the field. The work draws its inspiration from

(physical manifestation in its totality) and its knower

(the conscious ego). Two basic motives are thus

interwoven through the course of the work, and manipulated

in diverse ways. The three movements generally adhere to

the scheme, fast-slow-fast, respectively. The movements

are essentially through-composed, and follow no

traditional formal outlines.

One unique addition in the work's instrumentation is

that of the soprano to the woodwinds. In cases

in which the soprano saxophone may not be available, a

third flute may be added to perform this part, or the part

may be transposed for B*=> clarinet. The instrumentation

consists of the following: (1) in the woodwinds— two

flutes (the second alternating with piccolo), two oboes,

English horn, soprano saxophone, three clarinets, bass

clarinet, and two bassoons; (2) in the brass— four horns

in F, three trumpets in C, three trombones, and tuba; (3)

in the percussion— timpani, xylophone, triangle,

vibraphone, gong, bass drum, crotales, bass drum, tom tom,

cowbell, brass wind chimes, temple blocks, cymbals, harp

and piano; and (4) strings.

FORMAL ASPECTS and SCALAR RESOURCES

of

SYMPHOHY HO. 19 (VISHHU) by ALAH HOVHAHESS

FORMAL ASPECTS

Vishnu is a single movement work, the vast majority of

which is comprised of “senza misura" music, metered

sections being relegated to a very subordinate role.

Hovhaness has written the following about form:

Perhaps the form of this single movement could be represented by the classical Japanese concept of "Jo-Ha-Kyu’ or three-part form. Thus it might be expressed as a vast triptych:

1) Cosmic Adoration

2) Cosmic Processional-Dance

3) Cosmic Death and Glorification’

Jo-ha-kyu is an aesthetic theory which has deep roots

in Japanese culture. The term appears in the sixth volume

of the Sokyoku Taiisho. a collection of kumiuta (vocal

pieces comprised of two or more short poems) published in

1779 by physician and Koto player, Yamada Shokoku. This

aesthetic concept was used in ancient Japanese court

dances called bugaku. and in a form of Buddhist chanting

called shomyo. Zeaai, a Mo-playwright <1363-1443) refined

the concept In his theoretical writings. Jo-ha-kyu

denotes a three-part structure: £o corresponds to an

exposition; ha, which neans "scattering” or "breaking

apart”, le a development towards a high point; and kyu

represents a partial reprise, and a sudden climactic

finish.2 The concept of Jo—ha—kyu may be applied to a

single phrase, or to entire compositions comprised of

numerous sections within the basic tripartite structure.3

In Vishnu the ""senza misura"" sections (frequently

ranging from fifteen to twenty seconds duration each)

present a rich and bewildering variety of modality,

texture, and orchestral color. Two major melodies are

developed throughout the work and even become intertwined

at points; yet, thematic statements do not help elucidate

formal aspects well. There are numerous canonic

statements and developments of thematic material; but,

these appear as randomly dispersed as the stars they

probably represent.* An element of recurrence is

exact duplications. The opening Material with its

prominent trombone glissandi reappears at great frequency

in much the manner of a ritornello; yet, it too is altered

(always fresh amidst constant flux). Thus, the work

appears to be through-composed.

One could loosely divide the work into two relatively

equal divisions with "senza misura" music prevailing in

the first half, E — fell; and metered sections becoming

more prevalent in the second half, E3 to the end. The

One aspect which may reveal a three-part division is

that of pitch-centricity. The pitch-centricity of F

56pervades from the opening to |29l. and subsequently from 56pervades

to the end. The pitch of A prevails at 1301: yet, it

switches back and forth with F for a few sections until C

pandiatonic emerges only to give way to A again. E dorian

arrives at 41 and is followed by A aeolean in a lengthy

and metered climax at I45L The middle section closes in D

dorian. The last three pitch-centricities move in a path

of descending fifths. These divisions are further

substantiated by the use of B** in the key signature for

parts one and three and F# in the middle section.

SCALAR RESOURCES

Hovhaness draws upon a great wealth of nodal and tonal

resources: major and minor tonality, various diatonic

modes, synthetic scales of a raga-like nature*^ -the

diatonic pentatonic scale, and even altered pentatonic

scales. These resources are used in a context of constant

flux.

As mentioned above, F retains the status of a pervading

pitch centricity for the majority of the first and last

divisions of the work; however, the modal form around this

pitch centricity frequently changes— for example, F

mlxolydian may give way to F dorian, followed by F major,

or F pentatonic. F is also tonicised in a synthetic raga-

like scale of seven pitches with a characteristic

augmented second:

e Hovhaness has studied Indian music profusely; however, instead of using exact raga scales he prefers to create his own. The irregular intervallie sequence of the ’’raga-like'' scale employed in Vishnu (augmented second, semitone, semitone, wholestep, wholestep, semitone, wholestep) is highly characteristic of raga scales.

The pitch, F, finds emphasis, too, in an altered

pentatonic scale (essentially a fragment derived from the

above scale) with a characteristic augmented second:

Fig. 2. Altered pentatonic scale with augmented second

The dominance of F is frequently disguised with

conflicting tonalities or modalities, occurring

simultaneously. Polytonality and/or polymodality, when

complex enough, lend an atonal character to the music. A

very striking example of the foregoing may be found at 3

(see Ex. 3 in Chapter 2, p. 21), where the percussion

present the following six pentatonic scales (4th mode)e

simultaneously:

e The use of the term ’’mode” refers here to the degree tonicised within the pentatonic scale (i.e., if the second degree of a pentatonic scale is tonicised, then it is in second mode). This terminology is used by Vincent Persichetti, Twentieth Century Harmony. (H.Y. , V.V. Horton and Co. Inc., 1961), p. 51.

All twelve pitches of the chronatic scale are generated

fron the above sound—web. To the ear the effect is quite

atonal. Hovhaness has mentioned that he will use

atonality, but only briefly— perhaps in a section or for

background. It is Hovhaness*s firm conviction that

everything in nature has a center (i.e., planets revolving

around a central sun, etc.). He also feels the same

conviction for musical tonality. Hovhaness has expressed

his use of atonality as "passing through the valley of the

shadow of death," but he doesn't "want to stay there.”7-

The use of pandiatonicism is very important in Vishnu.

It is not only used in the major tonality; it is extended

to modal and nondiatonic modal sections also.

Modal material is frequently used in a pandiatonic-like

manner. At 56 (see Ex. 1, p. 11) the entire section is

exclusively

lydian. The parts consist of scalar runs and fragments.

For initial pitches in these patterns, only F, A, and C

are used, with F receiving by far the most emphasis.

Mon-diatonic modal material Is treated in the same

pandiatonic fashion at l63l (see Ex. 2, p. 13). The above

mentioned raga-like scale is embodied in the string parts.

The first part in the first violins’ divisi a 4 contains

all the pitches of the mode with the exception of Eb,

The remaining string parts have material containing only

fragments of the mode. The harps present at the same time

patterns based on the pentatonic fragment (see fig. 2) of

the raga-like scale.

"Senza Misura” Music

A feature most unique to Hovhaness's musical style is

his use of passages consisting of multiple parts marked

"senza misura." An excellent description of this

technique may be found in the preface to Vishnu, in which

Hovhaness writes the fallowing:

Senza Misura passages. . . are to be played completely ad lib. without rhythm, and should be repeated over and over again as many times as necessary until the next bai— line is Indicated by the downbeat of the conductor. It is very important to note the word "STOP." All players should play very rapidly, allegro, and not together. Each player should play at his own individual speed, paying no attention to other players. This produces sounds of confusion and chaos, like a great crowd of people whispering, speaking, shouting in mass confusion. 1

The sound effect is one of great fluidity, especially when

applied to the strings using multiple divisi.

Hovhaness has coined a great number of terms for this

technique. The two most prevalently encountered (and yet

self contradictory in light of the great rhythmic

diversity in "senza misura” sections) are "rhythmless" and

"free-rhythm" music. Hovhaness's mystical leanings are

readily apparent in his use of such terms as "spirit

murmur" and "controlled chaos" for this technique.^

Hovhaness used the "senza misura" technique for the

first time In 1944 (In Lousadzak, a for piano and

strings). This date is significant In that It easily

predates by over a decade the use of "senza misura"

practices as a compositional technique by such notables as

Penderecki and Lutoslawski. Hovhaness specifies the

duration in seconds at the top of each score of "senza

misura" music, which is similar to Lutoslawski*s method;

however, he notates "senza misura” patterns in the

following manner:

Fig. 1. notation of "senza misura" passages

or he uses the symbol, after the

repeating melodic cell. He avoids white scoring

altogether.3 This "senza misura” technique is Hovhaness's

unmistakable signature (especially when applied to

strings) and stands out as the achievement he is most

proud o f . * ■

3 White scoring is a practice of leaving vacant on the score the staves of parts which consists wholly of rests.

In Vishnu, each “senza misura" section is highly

colorful and complex in and of Itself. It is the norm for

each part to be different. The groupings of individual

sixteenth note series in each part are mostly random, and

odd numbered groupings are more frequent, thus avoiding

any sensation of periodic effect. Frequently, these

sections exhibit an enormous diversity of rhythmic values,

despite the fact that each part is played at a different

pace. Pattern-groupings of thirty-seconds, sixteenths,

eighths, or mixed groupings of various rhythmic values

abound in conjunction with each other.

The mystical allure of mountains

inspiration to Hovhaness) finds prevalent expression in

“senza misura” passages through the dynamic pattern, pp—

PP*s Hovhaness specifies that in such dynamic arches,

the musicians are to “make only one great crescendo,” and

subsequently, one great decrescendo. The entire dynamic

arch is not always used; however, and in such instances

only half of the pattern (ff-pp, or pp-ff) is used.

The opening rhythmic block (see Ex. 1, p. 18)

represents a mixed texture provided by trombone, tuba,

timpani, bass drum, and tarn tarn roll. The pitch center on

F is established in the timpani and reinforced by an

agogic accent on low F in the tuba. The glissando in the

trombone ends on the tones of C (dominant influence) and

E (leading tone). The three glissando cells begin on B^,

G**, and Bto, respectively. Each is separated by rests.

The low F in the tuba is followed by short cells (three

and two member cells, respectively) comprised of semitones

which complement the character of the trombone glissandi.

After a gradual crescendo, one horn and two trumpets

enter at mf, thickening the texture. The horn part is

particularly heraldic in spirit, and brilliant in its high

register. It begins with octave leaps on a concert C

which is emphasized by agogic accent, and continues with

varying pitch interpolations between the octave C’s and

concludes with an upward trill on C. The first trumpet’s

pattern is essentially a trill (primarily in sixteenths)

on F, encompassing the first four notes of the mode

(emphasizing the third and fourth scale degrees towards

the end of the pattern); meanwhile the second trumpet

introduces a three-note cell which begins on F, and

includes the two scale degrees below, and subsequently

above, the modal center. All pitch material with the

exception of that in the glissandi cells conforms to the

same mode. The passage comes to a sudden stop after all

eight parts crescendo to ffff.

The next "senza misura” sound-block, [2 ] (see Ex. 2, p.

19), ushers in a total color change with the entrance of

twenty different parts in the strings, which enter pp, and

then crescendo to fff and decrescendo subsequently to pp

(the symbolic Mountain). Each section of the strings is

divided four ways: two parts (in eighth values) consist

of pitch glidings; the remaining two of stepwise runs up

and down (in sixteenths).

The following section ( [3 ] ) observes the sane dynamic

pattern, yet the scoring is now for bell-like percussion

Instruments (glockenspiel, two vibraphones, two chimes,

two harps, and celesta). Each part is constructed on a

pentatonlc scale, each of which is built, in turn, on a

different pitch center. The tones generated from all the

parts yield the entire chromatic scale. A more

numerically logical order appears in the sixteenth note

groupings in this section. Each subsequent pattern in

each part (with the exception of two parts) is diminished

by one sixteenth-note value— the largest is nine

sixteenths, while the smallest is three. This ordering,

however, is a rarity in the course of the work— the norm

is for randomized groupings (see Ex. 3, p. 22).

The next "senza misura" section, [4], is a simplification

of 0 (Ex. 2, p. 19). The strings are only divided into

ten different parts, and while most of the groupings are

comprised of scalar patterns (in thirty-second notes),

glidings (in eighth notes). The following is an excerpt

depicting the parts of the first violins:

The aural impression is much akin to [2 ] , yet the modality

is different. The strings continue using pitches from the

same pentatonic patterns centered on different pitches

which the bell-like percussion instruments ushered in with

the previous "senza misura” block. The dynamic scheme is

only half the dynamic arch (pp— ff ) of that found at {2} .

The subsequent "senza misura” block,fsj is a return to the

opening patterns supplemented by two additional trombone

parts. In fact, throughout the first section of the work,

the opening "senza misura” block with its characteristic

trombone glissandi recurs in much the same manner as a

ritornello, even though there are slight permutations with

each presentation

other sound-blocks are repeated in a manner usually

undergoing subtle permutations (as pointed out in [2 } and

0 >. The foregoing "senza misura” examples are well

illustrative also of an underlying back and forth cycle of

recurrence — if Ex. 1 is labelled A; and Ex. 2 as B; and

Ex. 3 as C; plus an additional "senza misura” section, D

When the above scheme Is divided, the two halves reveal a

palindrone (in the first half), andan A—B—A form (in the

second half). This is more than likely accidental given

Hovhaness's temperament— that of one who has abandoned the

"artifice in music."«

The D section represents yet another kaleidoscopic

color change (see Ex. 4, p. 24). An exact canon in the

flutes is introduced against the "senza misura" ostinati

in the two harps and the celesta (marked allegro). The

canonic theme is an alluring and mesmeric variant of the

trombone glissandi at the opening (Ex. 1, p. 18). It is

also suggestive of some wailing chant an Armenian Priest

might sing in which one syllable might last a whole page.

It is here, too, that the influence of Eastern music is

most poignant. Except for the entrances of the canon

(which are exactly specified), the rest of the theme is

freely performed. A sense of freedom will result in most

any performance— a freedom of spontaneity much akin to the

marvelous accident of which the Indian musician is so very

fond.7 Jhalla. a specific Indian device in which one tone

is rapidly reiterated with the melody surfacing at

strategic points, is introduced for the first time in the

celesta, although two pitches are rapidly reiterated here-

-the tonic and dominant. The result is a throbbing,

drone-like effect. The religious element in Hovhaness's

music is readily apparent in such a section. It is

religious in the sense that its goal is self-edification,

and in Hovhaness's mind the purpose of all his music is

surely to arouse just such a response.© This "senza

misura" section most certainly reveals a spirit of

timelessness.

The opening material receives its most complex

and A series of "senza misura"

sections beginning at |23) (each of fifteen seconds

duration) increase in density prior to this climax (see

Ex. 5, pp. 28-31). In the first section of this series,

the string basses (div. a 4) present scalar runs in

thirty-second notes from F major at the beginning of their

parts and conclude with glissandi (each part glides on a

different string). This occurs in conjunction with an F

second-inversion maJor/nlnor chord-drone in the cellos

(also divided into four parts). The cellos crescendo from

p to ff, while the string basses crescendo from pp to fff.

At I2 4 ] and I2 5 I , the complete strings are divided into

ten different parts based upon multiple pentatonic scales

(as was done at [4 ] ), while the timpani emphasizes a

pervading model center of F. At (26 , the ten different

string parts abruptly switch to F Xixolydian, emphasizing

scalar patterns. The strings continue the same material

into [2V, where the texture suddenly thickens with the

addition of woodwinds, horns, and trombones. The

woodwinds emphasize three-note cells on various pitches

CE-F-G^ in the bassoons and contra-bassoons; D-Eto-F in the

bass clarinet; G*3- A^-B*3 in the clarinets; Gtf-A-B*3 in the

English horn; G#-A-B in the oboes; and G#-A-Bti in the

flutes and piccolo), creating sharp dissonances. The four

horns present heraldic-like material again— this time

pandlatonic on E13. The trombones present multiple

glissandi of an enormously atonal nature, while the tuba

emphasizes a solid modal center of F in material derived

from the work's opening. The tuba part also receives

numerous chromatic interpolations. At bs] , the trumpets

are added to this trully "multi-planar" texture,

final crescendo in this climax is to ffff. Only a minute

and thirty seconds has transpired from to the climax.

At 29 a sudden shift to bell-like percussion

instruments with multiple pentatonic scales brings the

first division of the work to a pp ending in twenty-five

seconds.

Further discussion of "senza misura” music will be

reserved for Chapter 3, which pertains to melody. This

covers "senza misura" accompaniment to metered melody, and

"senza misura” melody.

MELODY

Melody is the aost vital aspect of the work, whether It

be in the context of twenty or more different melodies

simultaneously, or one melody emphasized against a drone

background, or still other variations. The following

traits characterize melodic construction in metered

sections:

1) Stepwise motion predominates

2) Use of the highly characteristic interval of the

augmented second

3) Always legato

4) Always begins on beat one

5) Conforms to a given mode with a bare minimum of

nondiatonic elements. If there are

nondiatonic elements they usually occur near

the end of the melodic passage, and in some

rare instances, in the middle.

The following traits characterize melodic construction in

”senza misura” sections:

1> Scalar fragments (frequently pentatonic)

2 > Portamento

3) Predominant stepwise motion

4> Repeated notes exuding a throbbing drone effect

32

There are two basic melodic Ideas which pervade the

entire work: one, an arch-shaped melodic phrase; and the

second, a melisma-like melodic figure. These melodic

ideas appear in various forms, and undergo numerous

permutations— sometimes numerous and varied simultaneous

presentations of the same melody result in dense

soundblocks, which may be contrasted with linear or

canonic presentations in adjacent sections. At points the

two melodic ideas are even combined. In this chapter,

these two melodic ideas will be examined at their

inception, and then their subsequent appearances and

development will be examined.

MELODY OHE

At 8 , a "senza misura" section lasting 20 seconds,

pentatonic-based melodic material is introduced by five

bell-like percussion instruments (glockenspiel, two

vibraphones, and two chimes), which appear prominently at

points throughout the work. The melody occurs at its

simplest in the second chime part, and can be divided into

three distinct motivic fragments which outline a general

inverted arch that begins on C, and dips down an octave,

and then returns to the high C:

Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. Fig. 1. Melody one at Its sinplest

Fragment A Is comprised of a simple back and forth

reiteration of two pitches, C and D. Fragment B consists

of a downward and upward scalic presentation of the

pentatonic scale (and as a result of a pitch centricity on

C, all parts are constructed on the fourth mode of the F

diatonic pentatonic scale). Fragment C is an

embellishment of fragment A with an upper F substituting

for C, in addition to a chromatic inflection of the

penultimate pitch (which marks the only nondiatonic

element in the melodic material).

The five different instrumental parts incorporate a

varying number of reiterations of the waving C-D pattern

in fragment A— three parts begin on D Instead of C. The

lengthiest passage is in the first vibraphone, which

begins with four reiterations of fragment A an octave

higher. The B fragment is greatly expanded, as shown

below:

Fig. 2. Expansion of fragment B

Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. 3 5

The downward and upward patterns of fragment B are

reiterated two times and are grouped as sixteenth-notes,

while the pivot point at the bottom of the inverted arch

remains in eighth-note values and assumes much the

character of fragment A, with its interpolated

reiterations of C and D. An element of asymetry is

introduced with the interpolated pitches marked with the +

above (see Fig- 2). The circled pitches at the beginning

of the ascending sixteenth-note patterns represent another

veiled interpolation of fragment A. The C fragment is

extended as shown below:

Fig. 3. Simple interpolation of fragment C

The same material returns with the same instrumentation

at I1 2 I . The glockenspiel and the second vibraphone,

however, have moved to the fourth mode of A pentatonic

(pitch centricity on B>, while the first vibraphone is in

the fourth mode of D** pentatonic (pitch-centricity on A*3).

The two chimes remain in the fourth mode of F pentatonic

as at E (see Ex. 1, p. 36). A simplification of 4U fragment C occurs in all parts with their deletion of the

chromatic inflection on the penultimate pitch.

similar nature as the above patterns. The material is

constructed into a variety of combinations resulting in

montages of various randomized groupings of additive and

subtractive patterns. At (2 4 ! , ten different string

parts utilize ascending pentatonic scalar patterns in

thirty-second note values. The string patterns are

divided among four different pentatonic scales:

Six parts emphasize the fourth mode, while four emphasize

the f irst.

At 25 (fifteen seconds after |24| ), the strings

continue with the same texture while varying the tonality.

The fourth mode of the F pentatonic from 24 is

maintained, while the other three are replaced Vith the

following two Beales in the fourth mode:

pitch (each in the fourth mode again) with a further

alteration— the fourth degree is raised in each, resulting

in augmented seconds (occasionally spelled as a minor

third): I — -5*0* 0

Fig. 6. Pentatonic scales with augmented seconds (or minor thirds)

The complete melody returns at |30| , and is placed for

the first time in the woodwinds. It undergoes a novel

transformation with its canonic treatment in the first

oboe and the first and second clarinets, respectively (in

contrast to the previous montages). In the background the

first and second strings, each divisi a 4, have a drone

chord based upon the verticalization of A phrygian

(lacking only C) with A as the root, while the first harp

has an ostinato consisting of the same pitch content.

Hovhaness’s thinking in this section appears to be extra-

systemic— the melody is based on the following

pentatonic scale: G.A.B^.D.E. Even though these five

pitches belong to A phrygian, the aural impression is

convincingly pentatonic due to the exclusive use of these

pitches (with the one exception of a portamento at the

very end) in the melody. The emphasis on A as a pitch

center, however, places the melody in the second mode.

With the entrance of the second harp (as the third canonic

Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. 3 9

statement begins) the final pitch of A phrygian is

introduced along with one non-diatonic element, Eto. The

entire pitch content of the second harp part consists of

the following pitches: D, Eto, G, A, B*, and C. This is

essentially D phrygian (without F>. Each absentee pitch

represents the third degree of their respective phrygian

scales. This lends credence to an extra—systemic theory.

The same arched contouras used in the initial

presentation of the melody (at 0 t etc.) is adhered to in

two complete statements (see fig. 7. below). The falling

part of the B fragment is disguised with an interpolated

sequence of fragment A on the pitches E and D, while the

rising portion of fragment B is in additive groupings of

sixteenth notes (3,4, and 5, respectively). The modal

change distinguishes the C fragment from previous

presentations— minor second above the pitch center is

consistently used until the very end of the passage. In

previous statements the minor second appeared as the

penultimate pitch only.

Lower chromatic inflections of E appear briefly in the

second statement adding tonal variety, in addition to a

glissando from -to B at the very end of the passage.

This passage marks the first appearance of this highly

characteristic device in this melody.

A similar treatment of the melody occurs again at 37

in a three-part canon for flutes. The background is

simllai only the mode is changed (the chord in the

strings is a verticalization of C major). The melody is

presented in three statements and is based on the fourth

mode of the pure diatonic pentatonic scale on F (instead

of the Kumoi scale). The A fragment is characterized by

an upper neighbor (in contrast to the lower neighbor at

53); and again is veiled, even within the B fragment (as indicated by the circled pitches below):

; i g—-*

Beginning with the second statement, there is a greater

brackets):

Fig. 9. Embellishment of second canonic statement

The introductory embellishment of the third statement is

expanded to cover the whole pentatonic in two octaves,

while the waving pattern of the A fragment receives more

reiterations, one of which is accented with a grace note.

The downward slope in the inverted arch of the B fragment

is marked also by repetition, in addition to a quality of

wandering (as depicted in the box and the brackets below).

The sixteenth-note groupings (six, seven, and eight,

respectively) which follow have an even stronger drone

effect than previous appearances of these groupings as a

result of eight additional sixteenth values and the more

numerous back and forth reiterations of G and A. The

statement ends with the characteristic half step

inflection above the pitch center gliding down to the

center (instead of up, as was the case at the end of 30 >.

Rising pentatonic scalar patterns derived from fragment

B punctuate four "senza misura" passages between the

canonic treatments of the melody at I3 0 ) and (3 7 ) . At

31 the original five bell—like percussion instruments

return with a different (pitch-centered) pentatonic scale

for each part. The pitch centers are Bfc-t p, A1, C, and

E*3', respectively. Little significance can be drawn from

this sequence other than the 's aural preference.

The sequence of linear enfoldment in the scale is

comprised of the following: semitone, minor third (or

augmented second), minor third, and wholestep. The

percussion instruments continue with their patterns into

|321 in conjunction with the entrance of the brass in a

variant of the opening ritornello. At 34 ten

different string parts have patterns distributed among the

same five pentatonic centers. However, at [3 5 ! , only the

string basses (divisi a 4) continue the patterns (on the

pitch centers of F, C, G, and D, respectively), while the

cellos and violas maintain a drone on the pitches,

C,D,F,G,A, and B.

At |52l (see following Fig. 11), the most dramatic

transformation of the melody takes place. Marked Allegro

Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. 4 3 giusto J =120, It is very spirited, and is placed in a

meter (4/4) for the first time. The modality is dorian on

D, and a pervading drone on D occurs in the brass and

string basses at piano level, while the harps take white-

note modal patterns in opposite directions. The changing

accents (at forte level) in the timpani and b a s s drum add

greatly to the spirited nature of the section. The

melodic line, taken by the first and second violins, is

again strongly stepwise, as has been the case with all

previous appearances. The opening pitch is displaced at

the octave and strongly accented, as are all the first

beats until two measures before 53 The inverted arch

which characterized previous presentations is absent here.

The characteristic element that remains is primarily the

undulating stepwise motion of fragment A. For the first

eleven beats, there is a bare minimum of four different

pitch classes (E,D,C, and B), and these find ample

reiteration in the repeated sixteenth-note groupings

(bracketed in Fig. 11). The last six beats are equally

restrictive in their range and end accenting the modal

final (on beat one), which also marks the beginning of the

next statement. There is less rhythmic activity in these

six measures. The only sixteenth values occur in two

different groups of two, each of which is approached and

left in the same stepwise direction.

The violins reinforce the melodic line with the

entrance of the second statement. The first two and a

half measures are identical to the opening; however,

monotony is avoided through rhythmic displacements in the

form of sequences lasting 3 1/2 beats:

The third statement begins on beat three, and is

identical to the opening. It is reinforced by the cellos

and bassoons. Afterwards, Hovhaness returns to the

sequential treatment of the opening fragment in units of 3

1/2 beats. The texture thins with the deletion of the

cellos, bassoons, and violas. As the violins decrescendo

to piano, and the drone on D ceases, the woodwinds employ

the melody (forte) in stretto at every two beats (see Ex.

2, p. 46). The stretto treatment exudes a complex drone

effect, which lasts to the end of the section. The same

material; however, does not remain in stretto. Five

measures before 55 , the flutes embark on the stretto

treatment of fragment A on pitches B and A (circled in

Fig. 14) grouped into ascending patterns of five

sixteenth—notes— thus obscuring the meter again:

A subsequent sequence on G and F follows, which gives way

in turn to the following inexact (units of 3 1/2 beats)

sequence:

Fig. 15. Inexact sequence of units in 3 1/2 beats

The opening fragment is treated sequentially in a

rhythmic cycle of 3 1/2 beats for the duration of the

section (for seven measures). Hovhaness’s use of the

rhythmic cycle is closely akin to the Indian use of tala—

repetitive rhythmic cells utilized in a raga. The basic

pulse in the above rhythmic cycle is the eighth note.

This basic pulse is analogous to the matra. or basic

rhythmic unit of the Indian tala.

Much later at Ex. 3, p. 48), the original

inverted arch shape of the melody returns in the five

bell-like percussion instruments in a "senza misura"

section of 25 seconds duration. Each part is constructed

on the fourth mode of the diatonic pentatonic scale, and

again each is centered on a different pitch— E, A^, G#, C,

and B*1*, respectively. Each part is also exclusively in

six±eenth-note values. A jhalla-like effect is utilized

with fragment C at the end of each pattern. Usually the

Jhalla technique Is more randon in Its rhythmic groupings,

but here groupings of three are used with the exception of

the very last one, which uses four.

At fel (see Ex. 4, p. 50 >, Hovhaness incorporates

glissandl into every aspect of the melody (in its original

contour again) taken by the trombones in three-part canon,

while patterns based on the B fragment are given to the

bell-like percussion instruments (which are strictly in

the diatonic pentatonic scale on F>. The trombone

glissandi consist of the following pitches: C, !>■, p, G*3,

and A with occasional G#’s resulting in augmented seconds.

Each glissandl cell ends or begins on the active tones of

C (dominant influence), or F (tonic)— emphasizing these

pitches in the same manner as done in the trombone parts

at the very opening of the work (see Chapter 2 on "senza

misura" music). The augmented second, F-G# presents a

minor third/major third clash with the major third, F-A;

within the linear cell as well as when considering the

vertical aspects of the parts together.

The bell-like percussion instruments take the melody at

(75! in, again, the jhalla-like technique. Vhile at 71

each part was on a different pitch center in the diatonic

pentatonic scale (fourth mode), there are only three

centers in this "senza misura” section— E, A**, and C.

and middle of the melody as well as the end. Host of the

groupings are In three sixteenths; however, the first

vibraphone's is in four, while the second chines' is in

two.

The percussion instruments continue their jhalla-like

patterns into 1761. in conjunction with the entry of the

trunpets taking the entire nelody in three part canon.

The percussion lnstrunents are yet again in five different

pitch centers— F, C, E*=>, G, and B*-. The naterial in the

brass is very similar to the trombone parts at {72) , only

the glissandl are absent, and the scale is the altered

pentatonic of F, G, B, C, and D. Thus the opening

fragment is in whole steps instead of half steps. The

characteristic chromatic alteration on the penultimate

pitch (B»=>) is maintained.

At |79l , the percussion instruments continue the

Jhalla-like patterns— this time all parts are uniform on F

pentatonic. The chromatic inflection on the penultimate

pitch reappears— previously it had been deleted in the

percussion instruments parts.

The percussion instruments delete the jhalla-like

technique with their reappearance at 1q 4] . Only the B

fragment is used, and here mostly in descending patterns

in groups of diminishing sixteenths.

background the harps and celesta have soft ascending

ostinato patterns, while the violins, divided into eight

parts, sustain a full white-note drone. At the bottom

pivot point of the inverted arch, chromatic inflections

return, resulting in halfstep reiterations of the

interpolated A fragment. The complete fragment C

concludes the statement (with a closing element of

glissandl), in addition to a final G# nondlatonic element

gliding up to A (see Ex. 5, pp. 53-54).

The second major melody of the work is introduced at 10

by the flutes in a three-part canon. Marked allegretto

espressivo, it is in a "senza misura" section, and stands

out from a background of soft "senza misura” ostinato

accompaniment in the harps and celesta, which emphasizes F

as a tonal center. The following raga-like scale defines

the tonality:

-frg-Q—n

Fig. 16. Raga-like scale defining the tonality of melody two

However, a case for polymodality could be made in light of

the emphasis A receives in the canonic melody.

Each point of imitation is at the unison, and is

precisely determined at the point marked X below:

a wailing chant as practiced by an Armenian priest— one

syllable can be sung for the duration of an entire page.

Hovhaness's melodic line here seems to have the same basic

concept behind its unfolding— its pitches oscillate around

the third degree of the scale in the opening few seconds

as shown above. The subsequent melodic passage pivots on

D:

Fig. 18. Continuation of melody two

The pitches of the scale are only gradually revealed.

The apparent tonal center, F, is the very last to appear,

and also lies in a most inconspicuous position (circled in

Fig. 19). This lends credence to the possibility of a

dual modality. One could conveniently visualize the

phrygian on A with a lowered fifth, and raised seventh

degree as non-diatonic elements of the mode. The melodic

range also widens with the subsequent passages as a result

of the arabesque element at the beginning of each:

Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. Fig. 19. Expansion of melody two

All voices interacting result in a harmonic blur.

Dynamics are linearly uniform, but not vertically uniform.

The augmented second is avoided entirely (save for the

"senza misura” accompaniment). The harmonic blur, in

combination with the drone-like oetinato and pitch

glidings, lend a truly haunting quality to the section.

The melody returns in a more crystallized form at 13

Marked Largo solenne d = 60, it is metered in 2/2, and

retains the same tonality as at 10 . The pitch centriclty

on F is strongly apparent as a result of its sole drone in

the string basses and lower brass for 56 measures. Again,

the pitches of the scale are only gradually Introduced—

only four different pitches (A, G#, B«=>, and c> appear in

the first four measures. The motion in the first four

measures is also exclusively stepwise. A skip to the

sixth degree marks the beginning of the second phrase,

which also continues for four measures exclusively in

stepwise motion. An agoglc accent on the fifth degree

marks the end of the phrase. The third phrase is double

in length— beginning on the third scale degree, A, it

progresses stepwise down to F (again the last scale degree

to be introduced), then reversing direction, it proceeds

up to D, and then back to A. On the written score the

motion is completely stepwise (with the exception of the

minor third, B to D, in the 3/2 measure); however, the G#-

F is an augmented second (aurally a minor third). There

is only one meter change, and that is to 3/2 for only one

measure (four measures into the third phrase).

The fourth phrase, u.51 , opens with a skip of a fourth,

C-F, and is followed by an augmented second, which in turn

leads to A, the apex of the melodic range. Here,

Hovhaness dwells on A for six measures, inserting only two

different pitches, F and G#. The effect is again much

akin to that of a wailing chant.

alteration.

thirteen times; the minor sixth occurs only once; stepwise

motion occurs ninety-nine times (out of which the

augmented second occurs ten times). The overall effect is

one of great fluidity. The melodic range is greatly

narrowed in comparison to that at |10| , and the pitch

glidings are also absent in the present passage. The

varying phrase lengths also add to the fluidity of the

passage. The melodic scoring juxtaposes different

instrumental pairs from phrase to phrase, or between

phrase divisions: two bassoons; two horns; English horn

and bass clarinet; or clarinet and bass clarinet.

At (21) , the melody returns, again metered in 2/2, yet

with "senza misura" accompaniment in the harps. The

melody is taken by the flutes in three-part canon, and

provides a synthesis of the material at |lol with that at

!13l . the canonic and glissando elements at liol are

combined with the metrical structure at (13J (see Ex. 6, p.

textures of "senza misura" sections, so also is melody

two. Hote the use of fragments A and B of melody twoin

A transformation of the melody occurs at 1391 , (41] , and

43 (all "senza misura" sections), involving pitch glidings

and arabesque elements. At 1391 , three solo violins are in

three-part canon at the unison against a white-note drone

in the violins (divided into eight parts) and ostinatos in

the harps. Hote the canonic melody in figure 23, p. 63.

At [41] , two oboes and two clarinets take the melody in a

four—part canon at the unison against a drone in the

violins (divided into eight parts again). The tonality is

E dorian with occasional non-diatonic elements. The

arabesque elements receive greater attention here:

woodwinds (oboe and two clarinets) and the trombones. The

woodwinds imitate at the unison with each other as do the

trombones, yet the woodwinds are a fifth above the brass.

Also, after the first five notes, the melody in the

trombones continues with glissandi, whereas the woodwinds

employ an arabesque and then return to pitch glidings (see

Ex. 8, p. 65).

A synthesis of melody one and two is achieved at l46i ,

in a 7/4 metered section, marked Andante con noto maestoso J = 100. Fragment A of melody one and the melisma quality

of melody two are combined in a lengthy and climactic

melodic presentation in the trumpets and strings (covering

four octaves) against a drone background on A. The

section is exclusively in A aeolean, with no tonal

interferences. The influence of Renaissance melodic

practices is most evident in this section with its legato

treatment of a predominantly stepwise moving melody— even

the rhythmic values are a throwback to Renaissance melodic

writing. The opening presentation of the melody may be

precisely broken down into antecedent and consequent— each

phrase is two measures long and of parallel construction .

The bracketed melodic fragment (towards the end of the

consequent) in the figure below, reveals the motive most

frequently manipulated throughout the section.

VERTICAL SORORITIES

In many works, Hovhaness makes great use of rich and

chromatic progressions consisting of consonant and triadic

chords. Vishnu, however, is not such a work. Indeed,

harmony is essentially static throughout the work. Any

sense of harmonic progression must be found in the

shifting in pitch centricities from one section to

another, and not within individual sections. (These

shifts were discussed in the section on scalar resources

of Chapter 1). In Vishnu, harmonic stasis is achieved in

two ways:

1) through tonally complex, and repetitive

textures in "senza misura” sections

which are essentially immense

soundblocks;

2) through drones with their inherent time

suspending qualities. These range from

simple single-pitch drones to drone-

chords comprising all the pitches of a

particular mode.

In this chapter, these drone—chords are examined in

detail.

The first appearance of chordal simultaneities occurs

71

at (13j. A total of three different added-note chords

appear in this metered section, yet any sense of

progression is nullified through the use of a pervading

consonant F, common to each aggregate:

:=$ =z

Fig. 1. Added-note chords

The distinguishing quality of the first chord is its dual

modality (although Hovhaness resorts to the enharmonic

spelling of the minor third as an augmented second).

Occasionally this chord receives an added member, B*-,

adding to a general cluster effect. Arnold Rosner, in his

dissertation on Hovhaness, refers to these chords as

"constructed chords.”1 He specifies that each chord has

an integral consonant interval, or triad, to which

additional pitches may be included only when they are a

half-step above or below that consonant interval. In the

second chord of the example above, Dto is the added pitch

(1/2 step) above the consonant F-C. The third chord, a

cluster consisting of the pitches, D#, E, and F, however,

is an exception to the above, and contains no consonant

interval.

The scoring places the F consistently in the string

basses, with occasional support from the tuba at points.

The remainder of the chord Is then equally distributed

among the glockenspiel, two harps, and celesta. The

scaring is shown in Ex. 1

At 30 , a drone-chord consisting of six pitches is

presented by the first and second violins. Its pitches

represent (with the exception of an absent third degree,

C) the phrygian mode on A. Its scoring renders a thick

and rich sound— the spacing may be noted below:

Fig. 2. Drone-chord consisting of six pitches

A drone-chord consisting of six pitches appears again

at [35] , this time scored in the cellos and violas. C is

the lowest sounding pitch, and with the absence of E, the

pitch content represents the verticalization of C major.

The spacing of the notes yields again a thick and rich

sound (as at 30 >, yet the intervallic relationships are

slightly altered:

This verticalized node is presented in the first and

second violins through five different repetitions. C

consistently serves as the lowest sounding pitch, while

the remaining pitches of the mode constantly shift with

each repetition in the upper voices through alternate

verticallzations. The motion is essentially stepwise

through these shifting verticallzations, which present an

illusion of progression, even though the chord remains the

same amidst such flux (see Ex. 2, p. 7 6 ) . The final

iteration of the above chord is tied over into the next

section, |37| , where it is sustained as a complex drone

for the duration of that section, (and even into the

opening of 38 >. At |37l , the drone functions as a

background for a three-part "senza misura" canon in the

flutes.

A permutation of {36j ensues at [38^ (which is also

marked Largo d = 60). A complex series of chords occurs

in succession, and cones the closest (thus far in the

work) to creating any sense of progression; however, here

too there is a drone-chord sustained through much of the

section. The drone (which appears in the cellos, and is

duplicated in the violas an octave higher) consists of

only four pitches— C,F,G, and A. C again is the lowest

sounding pitch; hence, the chordal identity of F 6/4 with

an added G emerges (see Ex. 3, p. 7 7 ) . The chordal

movement in the first and second violins represents

The three subsequent simultaneities represent various

verticallzations of white-note harmony with A as the root;

however, with E being the lowest sounding pitch, A 6/4

with varying added notes emerges more distinctly as the

chard's identity:

The last chord is tied over into [39,, where it too will

function as a drone for that section’s duration.

The section at 39 (as in [37]) also employs a three-part

canon, in this instance, however, for three solo violins

(in conjunction to the three-part canon there is a foui—

part canon in the woodwinds.> The same chord marks the

beginning point at 40 (Largo cl = 60) for a very rich

glissando to D major with added 2 and 4. The third chord,

E minor with added 2 and 4, is sustained into the next

section, where it also serves as a drone (this is yet

again an instance of the last chord of one section used as

a drone for the duration of a subsequent section).

At 42 , the diatonic pitches of G are verticalized in

the cellos, and violas. It is constructed in seconds with

the exception of the lowest two pitches, which are a minor

third . This drone is repeated again at |43

At 44 , the first and second violins verticalize the

pitches of E dorian (with the exception of D). The pitch

spacing is in minor thirds in the higher range; mostly

secundal in the middle range; and B, the lowest sounding

pitch, forms a perfect fourth at the base of the

aggregate.

A drone of identical structure (only transposed a whole

step) ensues at |45| . It verticalizes the pitches of C

major with the one exception of C itself. The "senza

misura” passages in the section Include C, however, and

are exclusively pandiatonic on C.

The "senza misura" soundblock, 57 , marks the beginning

of a series of accumulating second inversion triads, each

of which has a dual modal quality (see Ex. 4, p. 80). In

each, the enharmonic minor third is spelled as an

augmented second. The cellos usher in the first chord, F

7/4 M/m; the violas introduce the second chord, D*» 6/4 H/m

at ^§1 ; the second violins present the third chord, A 7/4

In ascending minor sixths, yet with each chord reiterated

with each new chord’s entrance the final aggregate renders

only six pitches in all (F, G#, A, C, C#, and B). The

basic consonant triad of the final aggregate is F major.

Each additional pitch, in conformity with Kosner's

”constructed chord” theory, is a half—step from one of the

consonant intervals:

At 67 , F 7/4 M/m is presented uniformly in the

strings through four octaves. About ten seconds later, at

k>8L the lower strings (string basses and cellos) are

dropped, while the chord is reshuffled vertically in the

higher strings, with the addition of a new pitch, D, into

the sonority. A further reduction in density occurs with

the elimination of the violas (again only ten seconds

later, which has uniformly marked the duration of each

sonority between (4 7 ) and 68 ), leaving only the violins.

The chord is scored for two harps, and is arpeggiated with

each reiteration. Each attack is equidistantly spaced

(two per measure in 1 2 / 8 ) . F pervades in the string

basses and timpani throughout the section. An element of

contrast is provided by an occasional addition of Bt- to

the aggregate, in conjunction with an alternate

verticalization:

Fig. 8. F 6/4 with added flat fourth and sixth

One could easily specify the chord as minor with an

added second and seventh; however, the B** is ha If-step

above the consonant interval, F-A. Thus it conforms to

Kosner’s ”constructed chord” category.

verticalized mode of C. It Is secundal with the

exceptions of the outer pitches— C, the lowest sounding

pitch; and A, the highest, each of which forms a perfect

fourth with the adjacent pitch. This results in the

strong Implication of F 6 / 4 .

In summary, there are two basic chord types found in

Vishnu: <1) added-note chords, and (2) verticalized

scales. The last category may consist of white-note

harmony, pentatonic scales, or modal scales. Alternative

verticallzations of the same chordal content lends a

particular richness to these chords, which consistently

function as drones. The scoring for most chords will

frequently emphasize a perfect fourth in the lower two

voices, thus rendering second inversion implications.

Vishnu is an aurally impressive work. The "senza

misura" sections, which constitute the majority of the

work, yield a bewildering and kaleidoscopic diversity of

color, density and effect. The use of such Indian devices

as jhalla. pitch glidings, drones and tala add greatly to

an exotic atmosphere. The practice of each musician

playing his or her part at a different speed, will render

a quality of freshness and fluidity to any given

performance.

Stasis is a very prominent quality in Vishnu. Vith

each part repeated over and over again at separate speeds

Cin "senza misura” sections) the resultant aural

impression is that of a harmonic blur. In essence, the

effect is that of a highly complex drone. All vertical

aggregates conform to one single function— that of a

drone.

Two melodic ideas are brought to prominence in Vishnu:

(1> an arch-shaped phrase, and (2) a melisma figure.

Each is primarily stepwise in direction, and each is

treated to a vast array of thematic processes. These

processes consists of the following: mode changes,

canonic settings, fragmentation, sequence, ostinatos

(usually in the context of multiple simultaneous

presentations as in a montage), a wide range of pitch

interpolations (including pitch glidings, additive and

subtractive patterns, arabesque elements, scalar

fragments). In addition, melody may be found in a "senza

misura" or metered context. The meters emphasized are

predominantly asymmetrical (7/4, 5 / 4 ) . The scalar

resources include various pentatonic scales (the diatonic

pentatonic scale, the Kumoi scale, and an altered scale

with an augmented second), the diatonic church modes, and

a raga-like scale.

Vertical aggregates consist of the following two basic

types: (1) added-note chords, and (2) verticalized

scales. The last category may consist of white-note

harmony, pentatonic scales, or modal scales. Alternative

verticallzations of the same chordal content lends a

particular richness to these drones. The scoring for most

chords will frequently emphasize a perfect fourth in the

lower two voices, thus yielding second inversion

implications.

This study is an analysis of the technical musical

language of Hovhaness in Vishnu. Vhile such an analysis

reveals the compositional elements of the work, it cannot

reveal the emotional Impact of the structure as a whole.

The emotional range, in Vishnu, is vast, often the hideous

and horrendous stand juxtaposed side by side with the

sublime. These emotions depict quite vividly the dynamic

qualities of the Hindu deity for whom the work is named,

and it is in the sphere of emotional impact that

Hovhaness’s mystical intent (which pervades the entire

work) is encountered. Mysticism, however, is a quality

which evades the fragmented analytical approach.
