  • Style and Performance Considerations in Three Works Involving Flute by Joan Tower
    Style and Performance Considerations in Three Works Involving Flute by Joan Tower: Snow Dreams , Valentine Trills , and A Little Gift by TAMMY EVANS YONCE (Under the Direction of Angela Jones-Reus and David Haas) ABSTRACT Joan Tower is a highly regarded contemporary composer who is known for her early serial style and subsequent organic style. Her compositional process is most frequently a collaborative one; a performer herself, she prefers to work with the musicians for whom she is writing. In addition to her Hexachords for solo flute (1972) and Flute Concerto (1989), which are her most commonly studied flute works, she has also written seventeen other chamber or solo works involving flute. This document contains a biography of the composer and an analysis of three chamber and solo works involving flute: Snow Dreams , Valentine Trills, and A Little Gift . A listing of Tower’s chamber and solo works involving flute and an interview with the composer are included as appendices. In addition to identifying formal aspects of the works, specific musical elements that are most salient to each work will be discussed. One of these elements in particular, density, will be analyzed in relation to how it creates or dispels intensity. Tower often employs the same compositional features in all three works to create this feeling of motion versus stasis, which is well illuminated through the analysis of the most salient musical elements. INDEX WORDS: Joan Tower, Snow Dreams , Valentine Trills , A Little Gift , A Gift, Flute, Chamber Music, Solo Music

  • Over 100 Opera Makers
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .

Joan Tower Rain Waves (for violin, clarinet, and piano) was commissioned by Mich­ igan State University for the Verdehr Trio. This work explores the motion of a waveform. Starting with a pointillistic "rain"-type pattern, the notes float upwards and downwards in increasing intensities. In the less "stac­ cato"-like and more flowing sections, there is a sense of a "wind" pushing the notes into longer and wider arched patterns - perhaps like the undulat­ ing sheets of rain created in a light southern tropical rainfall.

    The ARTery A Boston Birthday Celebration (And Residency) For Composer Joan Tower February 07, 2018 By Keith Powers NewNew EnglandEngland ConservatoryConservatory is calling it a residency for composer Joan Tower, but New England Conservatory it feels more like a birthday party. And it is — just a bit premature.

  • Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound
    Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound Patrick Milian A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Leroy Searle, Chair Sydney Kaplan Brian Reed Program Authorized to Offer Degree: English ©Copyright 2019 Patrick Milian University of Washington Abstract Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound Patrick Milian Chair of Supervisory Committee: Leroy Searle English Intermedial Modernism: Music, Dance, and Sound examines how twentieth-century combinations of literature with sound-based arts like music, dance, and radio emerged from aesthetic negotiations with new media technologies. Such technologies—specifically phonography, electric amplification, modern stagecraft, and radiophonic broadcast—practically and conceptually integrated multiple artistic mediums and their meaning-making potentialities. I use the framework of intermediality, especially as utilized in word and music studies, to describe such integrations. Intermediality is a centuries-old practice of “making it new,” but what sets its twentieth-century iterations apart from those of Aeschylus or Monteverdi, I argue, is that they interpolate the acoustic effects, cultural practices, and expanded perceptual vocabularies affiliated with new media. By fully contextualizing case studies of opera, musicalized literature, expressive dance, and radio programs within a broader media ecology and by understanding the role of stipulated sense modalities and listening practices,
