  • Works by George Perle, David Del Tredici, and Nicholas Thorne New World 80380-2
    Works by George Perle, David Del Tredici, and Nicholas Thorne New World 80380-2 The vastly divergent reactions to twelve-tone composition of George Perle, David Del Tredici and Nicholas Thorne are a vivid reflection not only of their different generations, but of the unfolding of musical style change in America. Perle, born in 1915 and educated here at a time when twelve-tone composition was little understood, felt the urge to revise Schoenberg's method so as to reconcile serial chromaticism with the hierarchical elements of tonal practice. The system he evolved, known as “twelve-tone tonality,” has been the basis of most of his compositions until 1969, and all since. Del Tredici, born in 1937, studied at Princeton at a time when serialism had become dogma. Yet he eventually repudiated the technique and turned to a highly eccentric form of tonality. Thorne, born in 1953, gave little thought to twelve-tone composition. “It was the generation before me who had this monkey on its back,” he says. Instead, Thorne came to maturity amid the welter of styles, from minimalism to neo-Romanticism, that characterized America during the 1970s. All three attitudes offer us invaluable insights into the composers and their music. In some circles George Perle is known as a musicologist, particularly for his pathbreaking studies of Alban Berg. In other circles, he is viewed as a theorist, a coherent codifier and radical reviser of serial technique. But he insists that both these pursuits have been sidelines to composition, and his music belies the popular misconception that art conceived under the wing of academia need be abstruse or inaccessible.

  • By Joseph Schwantner: an Exploration of Trajectory As an Organizing Principle for Drama, Motive, and Structure
    New Morning For The World ("Daybreak Of Freedom") By Joseph Schwantner: An Exploration Of Trajectory As An Organizing Principle For Drama, Motive, And Structure By Mark Feezell, Ph.D. ([email protected], www.drfeezell.com) Copyright © 2002 by Mark Feezell. All Rights Reserved. Used on this site by permission of the author. This essay explores techniques found in Joseph Schwantner's 1982 composition New Morning for the World ("Daybreak of Freedom"). Schwantner's piece, in which a speaker performs the part of Martin Luther King, Jr. using texts from his speeches and writings, establishes dramatic, motivic, and structural trajectories1 through the interactions of the speaker and the orchestra. Each of the three trajectories, dramatic/narrative, motivic, and structural, exert their influence continuously throughout Schwantner's piece. Simultaneously, each trajectory supports and influences the others. Joseph Schwantner (born 1943) is an American composer2 who earned composition degrees from the American Conservatory of Music in Chicago (BM, 1964) and Northwestern University (MM 1966, DM 1968). Elements that pervade his mature works include "a fascination with timbre, extreme instrumental range, juxtaposed instrumental groupings, pedal points, and a 1 A trajectory is the directed evolution of a set of related musical parameters. 2 For background and analysis on other Schwantner works, see, for example, Cynthia Folio's article "The synthesis of traditional and contemporary elements in Joseph Schwantner's 'Sparrows,'" Perspectives of New Music,

  • On the Transmigration of Souls Stabat Mater Fire-Memory/River-Memory on the Transmigration of Souls Performed November 3, 2007
    On the Transmigration of Souls Stabat Mater Fire-Memory/River-Memory On the Transmigration of Souls Performed November 3, 2007 In his poem Nänie, Friedrich Schiller wrote: Even the beautiful must die… But a song of remembrance on the lips of those who loved them is wonderful. The three pieces on this evening’s program all deal with loss and sorrow, but more importantly with remembering. If it is in remembering that we mourn, then it is also in remembering that we are comforted. It is in remembering that people, deeds and events are woven into the fabric of our lives and our societies. Even the words we use – memorial, commemorate – have “to remember” as their root. Karol Szymanoswki’s 1926 Stabat Mater was in fact written as a memorial. Szymanowski was inspired by Józef Jankowski’s remarkable Polish translation of the Latin hymn. Its simplicity and immediacy lends great poignancy to the story of a mother’s grief as she must witness her son’s death. Mendelssohn Club commissioned and premiered Fire- Memory/River-Memory in 1998. Composer James Primosch turned to the poetry of Denise Levertov, whose powerful imagery drew equally on her deep spirituality and her fierce opposition to the Vietnam war. This concert also features the Philadelphia premiere of John Adams’ Pulitzer Prize-winning On the Transmigration of Souls, written for the first anniversary of the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center. Adams drew his text largely from notices and flyers placed at ground zero by those who lost loved ones. Adams accomplishes the rare feat of creating a work which is both musically significant and emotionally moving without exploiting the grief of those whom the tragedy touched.

So too were the marching bands in which he played clarinet as a young student. Learning the basic European DU canon in front of the family Magnavox, Adams readily O assimilated it alongside the crazy quilt of American vernacular R music he encountered in the early postwar decades. Duke Ellington is a recurrent inspiration, and Adams’s love of jazz— which returns in unexpected forms, such as the improvisatory NT I “hypermelody” of the Violin Concerto (1993) or the electric violin’s raga-like musings in The Dharma at Big Sur (2003)— was early nurtured by his parents’ activities in jazz groups. As a student at Harvard during the cataclysmic upheavals of the late Sixties, Adams experienced the cognitive dissonance of the arid pronouncements of contemporary serialists when confronted with the fresh, Dionysian inventiveness of this golden age of rock.

  • Del Tredici, David (B
    Del Tredici, David (b. 1937) by Paul Attinello Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer and pianist David Del Tredici, known for his famous "Alice" works and neo-Romantic style, has also written music concerned with gay experience. Del Tredici was born on March 16, 1937, in Cloverdale, near Los Angeles. He was a child prodigy at the piano. He made a solo debut with the San Francisco Symphony in 1954, and continued as a concert pianist until 1960. He enrolled as an undergraduate at the University of California, Berkeley in 1955, initially studying piano. His first composition, Soliloquy (1958), written at the summer Aspen Festival, caused Darius Milhaud to encourage him to become a composer. On his return to Berkeley, Del Tredici studied composition, receiving his B.A. in 1959. He went on to Princeton to study with Roger Sessions and Earl Kim, receiving an M.F.A. in 1964. Del Tredici's compositional ability met with a wealth of early recognition. In 1966 he received a Guggenheim fellowship and spent the summer as composer-in-residence at the Marlboro Festival. Aaron Copland invited him to composition seminars at Tanglewood. Del Tredici has taught at a number of institutions, including Harvard (1966-1972), the State University of New York at Buffalo (1972-1973), Boston University (1973-1984), the City University of New York (1984 to the present), and Yale (1999), as well as at the Manhattan School (1991-1993) and Juilliard (1993-1996). In 1980, Del Tredici was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for In Memory of a Summer Day, one of his "Alice" works for soprano and orchestra.
