  • Interpreting Tempo and Rubato in Chopin's Music
    Interpreting tempo and rubato in Chopin’s music: A matter of tradition or individual style? Li-San Ting A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of New South Wales School of the Arts and Media Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences June 2013 ABSTRACT The main goal of this thesis is to gain a greater understanding of Chopin performance and interpretation, particularly in relation to tempo and rubato. This thesis is a comparative study between pianists who are associated with the Chopin tradition, primarily the Polish pianists of the early twentieth century, along with French pianists who are connected to Chopin via pedagogical lineage, and several modern pianists playing on period instruments. Through a detailed analysis of tempo and rubato in selected recordings, this thesis will explore the notions of tradition and individuality in Chopin playing, based on principles of pianism and pedagogy that emerge in Chopin’s writings, his composition, and his students’ accounts. Many pianists and teachers assume that a tradition in playing Chopin exists but the basis for this notion is often not made clear. Certain pianists are considered part of the Chopin tradition because of their indirect pedagogical connection to Chopin. I will investigate claims about tradition in Chopin playing in relation to tempo and rubato and highlight similarities and differences in the playing of pianists of the same or different nationality, pedagogical line or era. I will reveal how the literature on Chopin’s principles regarding tempo and rubato relates to any common or unique traits found in selected recordings.

  • A Survey of Czech Piano Cycles: from Nationalism to Modernism (1877-1930)
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: A SURVEY OF CZECH PIANO CYCLES: FROM NATIONALISM TO MODERNISM (1877-1930) Florence Ahn, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Larissa Dedova Piano Department The piano music of the Bohemian lands from the Romantic era to post World War I has been largely neglected by pianists and is not frequently heard in public performances. However, given an opportunity, one gains insight into the unique sound of the Czech piano repertoire and its contributions to the Western tradition of piano music. Nationalist Czech composers were inspired by the Bohemian landscape, folklore and historical events, and brought their sentiments to life in their symphonies, operas and chamber works, but little is known about the history of Czech piano literature. The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the unique sentimentality, sensuality and expression in the piano literature of Czech composers whose style can be traced from the solo piano cycles of Bedřich Smetana (1824-1884), Antonín Dvořák (1841-1904), Leoš Janáček (1854-1928), Josef Suk (1874-1935), Bohuslav Martinů (1890-1935) to Erwin Schulhoff (1894-1942). A SURVEY OF CZECH PIANO CYCLES: FROM ROMANTICISM TO MODERNISM (1877-1930) by Florence Ahn Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts 2018 Advisory Committee: Professor Larissa Dedova, Chair Professor Bradford Gowen Professor Donald Manildi Professor

  • Cinq Études De Jazz
    CINQ ÉTUDES DE JAZZ: A STUDY OF JAZZ AND MODERNISM by JEREMEY JAMES MCMILLAN KEVIN THOMAS CHANCE, COMMITTEE CHAIR EDISHER SAVITSKI THOMAS S. ROBINSON JOSEPH SARGENT JACOB W. ADAMS WILLIAM A. MARTIN A DOCUMENT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Department of Music in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2019 Copyright 2019 Jeremey McMillan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT When Erwin Schulhoff’s Cinq Études de Jazz appeared in 1926, the major cities in the United States and Europe were witnessing a global jazz phenomenon. Paris was among the major cities and cultural centers where the spirit of jazz ventured beyond the dance hall. Although the French reception of jazz has been thoroughly documented, this study offers a unique vantage point through a close musical analysis of this work. Schulhoff was a Czech composer who used his vantage point as an outsider to witness the influence of jazz on French culture and modern art. Besides the musical analysis, this study treats Schulhoff’s Cinq Études as a documentary by examining the unfolding of developments in the arts during the seventy-year period that preceded the 1920s. By examining the concurrent emergence of the European avant-garde and jazz, along with their similar ethos as a reaction to the sociopolitical climate of the time, this document seeks to implore the reader to consider that jazz—not simply a mere influence to modernism—is itself a branch of modern art. ii DEDICATION This document is dedicated to the memory of my father, Jerry Charles McMillan (1947- 2010).

  • Bach Ŕ 32 Mains
    Understanding Bach, 8, 87–137 © Bach Network UK 2013 Bach à 32 mains: Joseph Proksch and his Role in Bohemian Bach Reception TANJA KOVAČEVIĆ Although the public concert is today regarded as very much a staple of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, in reality, orchestral and operatic performances at the time were still a luxury for most music lovers. On the other hand, the piano, that emblem of bourgeois status, was increasingly making its way into even the most modest of middle-class households. Consequently, before the invention of the phonograph and radio, nineteenth-century musicians found piano transcriptions and arrangements a convenient vehicle for the dissemination and iteration of the symphonic, chamber and choral repertoire. Already by 1822, the popularity of piano transcriptions and arrangements had become so great, and their number so staggering, that a critic for the Quarterly Musical Magazine felt that ‘the passion for arrangement is, we think, a little run mad’.1 The sources housed in the archive of the Prague Conservatoire include curious transcriptions of works by Bach, Handel, Beethoven and others, arranged for multiple pianos involving up to sixteen players. Of particular interest to this study is an arrangement of the Prelude and Fugue in B-flat major on the name of BACH (BWV 898), for eight pianos, each for four hands—thirty-two hands in total. What would have been the purpose of such an arrangement? Why was it written for what seems to be an extraordinarily impractical number of performers and instruments? Who was the arranger? Was it ever performed? If so, who were the performers and where did all the pianos come from? And why was this particular work chosen? These are just some of the enigmas posed by this peculiar find, which will be addressed in the following discussion.

  • The Legacy of Theodore Leschetizky As Seen Through His Pedagogical Repertoire
    THE LEGACY OF THEODORE LESCHETIZKY AS SEEN THROUGH HIS PEDAGOGICAL REPERTOIRE AND TEACHING STYLE Bret Serrin, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2010 APPROVED: Joseph Banowetz, Major Professor Steven Harlos, Committee Member Adam Wodnicki, Committee Member Graham H. 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 Serrin, Bret. The Legacy of Theodore Leschetizky as Seen through His Pedagogical Repertoire and Teaching Style. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2010, 61 pp., 8 musical examples, references, 66 titles. Theodore Leschetizky’s singular pianistic legacy survives to this day because of his revolutionary pedagogical methods and his compositions for the piano repertory. The amalgamation of these two aspects formed his distinctive contributions to the fields of piano and piano pedagogy and left an indelible mark on the history of the instrument. His students lead an impressive list of the greatest artists of the previous century, each influencing the evolution of pianism with their own remarkable style and personality. While Leschetizky was arguably without peer as a pedagogue, many pianists today are unaware of the vast number of compositions that he wrote. These pieces were intended not only for the concert stage, but also as a very specific pedagogical repertoire that he used within his own teaching studio. It is imperative that the pianists of our current generation understand the dual aspects of his contribution to our art form, in order to fully grasp the way in which he has changed the face of pianism.
