UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles An Analysis and Performance Guide of Sound the Tucket Sonance and the Note to Mount for Trombone and Tape by Barry Anderson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Musical Arts by Joseph Rodolfo Krueger Muñoz 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION An Analysis and Performance Guide of Sound the Tucket Sonance and the Note to Mount for Trombone and Tape by Barry Anderson by Joseph Rodolfo Krueger Muñoz Doctor of Musical Arts University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Frank Heuser Chair Music for trombone and electroacoustic sounds is very underutilized in the mainstream world today. There is a need for musicians to preserve and protect music composed using the technology of the past because tapes are disintegrating and notable compositions are being lost. The most frequently performed pieces in the genre of trombone and pre-recorded tape are not challenging enough to train the advanced skills necessary to perform other works. Skills required to play these pieces such as reading graphical scores, playing in extreme ranges of the instrument, performing difficult extended techniques, synchronizing with an abstract tape, and making ethereal sounds into something tangible and enjoyable for the audience, are only learnable by studying and performing advanced abstract compositions. Sound the Tucket Sonance and the Note to Mount by Barry Anderson is an exemplary model of a piece that enables the trombonists to explore advanced playing techniques and to learn how to work in the medium of pre-recorded tape and acoustic performance. Sound the Tucket is the ideal companion piece to Luciano Berio's Sequenza V and has the potential to be a more manageable introduction to the notational style.

Canadian Solo Trombone Recital Repertoire: an Annotated Bibliography
Canadian solo trombone recital repertoire: An annotated bibliography by Dale Sorensen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Dale Sorensen, 2015 Canadian solo trombone recital repertoire: An annotated bibliography Dale Sorensen Doctor of Musical Arts Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto 2015 Abstract The first major Canadian compositions for solo trombone were written in the 1950s, a time when Canadian concert music composers began to flourish. Since then, more than 240 Canadian works for solo trombone (including alto, tenor and bass) have been composed. This annotated bibliography is a comprehensive examination of 135 of these works, delimited to include those composed in a 60-year period from 1952 to 2012, in two subsets of the repertoire typically performed in a standard recital: music for unaccompanied trombone, and music for trombone with piano accompaniment. The performance and/or study of Canadian music is a curricular requirement in many Canadian school music programs, and the performance of Canadian works is often mandatory for recitals and solo competitions. An annotated bibliography is an important resource that allows performers, teachers and students to identify and evaluate a body of musical works. The present document responds to the demand for such a resource by musicians searching specifically for Canadian solo trombone music, and significantly expands the scope of such previous research. The works chosen for inclusion in this study are presented in five sections based on instrumentation (divided by alto, tenor or bass trombone, and by unaccompanied solos or works ii with piano accompaniment – at the time of writing there were no unaccompanied alto trombone solos).

Performance Program Notes and Translations (In Program Order)
Performance Program Notes and Translations (in program order) Concert 1 Thursday, March 12, 1:30-2:30 (McCastlain Hall Fireplace Room) The Platypus Story by Stephanie Berg (1986) performed by The Platypus Players Beth Wheeler (Arkansas Symphony Orchestra), oboe; Rochelle G. Mann (Fort Lewis College), flute Tatiana R. Mann (Texas Tech University), piano Richard Wheeler (University of Arkansas Medical School), Narrator #1 Julian Mann (Elementary School), Narrator #2 The Platypus Story follows the tale of various forest creatures, each belonging to their own bird, fish or mammal group, who come across an animal that seems to defy categorization. The story is adapted from the traditional Aboriginal Australian tale, which is one of the original stories of the Dreamtime. “Dreamtime” is the Aboriginal Australian understanding of the world, its creation and the beginning of knowledge as described through a series of tales. Its wonderful message of strength of unity and beauty in diversity reflects the belief that all life as it is today is part of one vast, unchanging network of relationships that can be traced to the Creation and Great Spirit ancestors of the Dreamtime. The music chosen to accompany this tale utilizes an expanded yet familiar tonal language that is evocative, charming and quirky enough to match that strangest of animals, the platypus. Incantation and Dance by William Grant Still (1895-1978) performed by Toot Suite Tara Schwab (Arkansas State University), flute Kristin Leitterman (Arkansas State University), oboe Emily Trapp Jenkins (Arkansas State University), piano An Arkansas Son: William Grant Still (1895–1978) William Grant Still (1895-1978) was born in Mississippi and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas, where he developed his love for music and ability on numerous instruments before moving to Ohio to attend Wilberforce University and later Oberlin Conservatory.

The focal point of the study is the extension and expansion of the available performance vocabulary for trombone, using a series of case studies, scores and existing research. The expansion of techniques can be particularly identified by studying some of the most prominent performers and composers as well as the changing role of the trombone in the context of ensemble performance and some of the most prominent works that changed the role of the trombone for its future use through to the twenty first century.

Carnivalesque Expressions in Musical Composition: a Colombian
Carnivalesque expressions in musical composition: A Colombian perspective Analytical Commentary Vol. I ! CAROLINA NOGUERA PALAU ! ! A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Birmingham City University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September 2011 Birmingham Conservatoire Birmingham City University ! ! ABSTRACT The aim of my research is to reflect and exploit through a set of compositions certain musical features of Colombian folk music, which although difficult to incorporate in the language of Western Classical Music, can expand it in creative and productive ways. The outcome of this project is a folio with a set of compositions exploring, through different and innovative forms and sounds, the conflictive relationship between Colombian folk music and contemporary musical languages. "! ! ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It is a pleasure to thank the many people who made this thesis possible. First and foremost I offer my sincerest gratitude to my main Ph.D. supervisor, Lamberto Coccioli for his experience, comprehension, inspiration and generosity. He and his family have always offered me a Colombian warm home here in England. I will never forget that. This thesis would never have taken shape without the constant support from Richard Causton, my second supervisor. Throughout my research, he provided me not only with his extensive knowledge and technical advise but also with great encouragement and support. I would like to acknowledge the input and wise words from Edwin Roxburgh, my third supervisor. I had the most exciting time during the Orchestral Project under his conducting and general guidance. I would also like to thank Guy Woolfenden for his invaluable advice in writing for wind orchestra.

Duke B.A., Emory University M.M., University of Notre Dame du Lac May 2001 Ó Copyright 2001 Cason Austin Duke All rights reserved ii Preface “Every live musical performance has a visual element and is to some degree theatrical. Dramatic gestures by various conductors and concert soloists are evident examples. Most musicians are aware of their own stage presence and give special thought as to how they dress, move about on stage, bow, etc. Naturally, a certain amount of visible motion is necessary to sing or play an instrument and is particularly obvious in the case of the trombone.” 1 Most solo performers put no more thought into the theatrical nature of their performances than the above excerpt implies.
