A GUIDE to SOLO HORN MUSIC PROGRAMMING a RECITAL By A GUIDE TO SOLO HORN MUSIC PROGRAMMING A RECITAL by ARTHUR DIAZ CHARLES SNEAD, COMMITTEE CHAIR LINDA CUMMINS THOMAS ROBINSON JONATHAN WHITAKER SHELLY MYERS STEVE SHEPARDS A DOCUMENT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Music Performance in the Department of Music in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2015 ©Copyright 2015, Arthur Diaz ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This document provides a diverse list of appropriate solo horn repertoire with a formulaic approach to programming solo recitals; as a resource, it will provide horn players of all levels with more independence and more options when planning recitals. The formula will outline various formats for a recital, incorporating a system of categorizing the works based on guidelines that include length, style, movements, technical features, and the ensemble required. The categories provide consistent, measurable, and reliable guidelines which teachers, students, and performers can use to make informed decisions. An overview of important historical, stylistic, technical, and pedagogical information for each work will aid in repertoire choice and in performance, while information on how and where to obtain scores and recordings will facilitate the process. A table of works, organized by composer, is included for easy access to information. ii DEDICATION This document is dedicated to my wife Kaylene Beal Diaz. Her support and grasp of the English language made this document happen. This document is also dedicated to my parents Ann and Jose Diaz, who have always supported my endeavors. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Without the help and support of Charles “Skip” Snead I am not sure where I would be today. His belief in me will be forever appreciated. iv CONTENTS ABSTRACT .................................................................................................................................... ii DEDICATION ............................................................................................................................... iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ............................................................................................................. iv LIST OF TABLES ........................................................................................................................ vii 1.

  • Mozart's Very First Horn Concerto
    48 HISTORIC BRASS SOCIETY JOURNAL MOZART'SVERY FIRST HORN CONCERTO Herman Jeurissen (Translated by Martha Bixler, Ellen Callmann and Richard Sacksteder) olfgang Amadeus Mozart's four horn concertos belong to the standard repertory of every horn player today. There are, in addition, some fragments indicating that Mozart had in mind at least two more concertos. All of these worksw stem from Mozart's years in Vienna from 1781 to the end of his life. Mozart sketched out the Rondo KV 371 on March 21,178 1, five days after he had left Munich at the command of his patron, Archbishop Hieronymus Colloredo, to join the court musicians of Salzburg in Vienna to give musical luster to the festivities in honor of the newly crowned emperor, Joseph 11. He must havecomposed thedraft of an opening allegro, KV 370b, for a horn concerto in E-flat major at about the same time. In all probability, the Rondo KV 371 formed its finale. The themes of this experimental concerto, KV370b+371, are completely characteristic of Mozart: the march-like open- ing of the first movement occurs frequently in the piano concertos and the rondo theme set in 214 time anticipates the second finale of Figaro (Ex. 1). No trace has been found of plans he probably had for a second movement. Example 1 The Allegro KV 370b In 1856, Mozart's son Carl Thomas (1784-1858), in connection with his father's 100th birthday, cut up a large part of this first movement and distributed the pieces as "Mozart relics." Today, 127 measures of this movement survive, in which, as in the Rondo, the horn part is fully worked out while the accompaniment is only partially indicated.

  • Interpretation of Mozart Concertos with an Historical View
    Kurs: CA 1004 30 hp 2018 Master in Music 120 ECTS Institutionen för Klassisk musik Handledare: Katarina Ström-Harg Examinator: Ronny Lindeborg Mónica Berenguer Caro Interpretation of Mozart concertos with an historical view 1 Preface The basis of this research originally came from my passion for my instrument. I started to think about the importance of Mozart's concertos about 4 years ago, when I began taking orchestra auditions and competitions. A horn player will perform Mozart concertos through his entire musical career, so I think it is necessary to know more about them. I hope to contribute to knowledge for new and future students and I hope that they will be able to access to the content of my thesis whenever they need it. In fact, I may have not achieved my current level of success without a strong support group. First, my parents, who have supported me with love and understanding. Secondly there are my teachers, Katarina Ström-Harg and Annamia Larsson, each of whom has provided patient advices and guidance throughout the research process. Thank you all for your unwavering support. 2 Abstract This thesis is an historical, technical and stylistic investigation of Mozart horn concertos. It includes a description of Mozart’s life; the moment in his life where the concertos were developed. It contains information about Ignaz Leitgeb, the horn player who has a close friendship with Mozart. Also, the explanation of his technical characteristics of the natural horn and the way of Mozart deal with the resources and limitations of this instrument, as well as the way of the interpretation of these pieces had been facilitated by the arrival of the chromatic horn.

  • Vocality and Listening in Three Operas by Luciano Berio
    Clare Brady Royal Holloway, University of London The Open Voice: Vocality and Listening in three operas by Luciano Berio Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music February 2017 The Open Voice | 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Patricia Mary Clare Brady, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: February 1st 2017 The Open Voice | 2 Abstract The human voice has undergone a seismic reappraisal in recent years, within musicology, and across disciplinary boundaries in the humanities, arts and sciences; ‘voice studies’ offers a vast and proliferating array of seemingly divergent accounts of the voice and its capacities, qualities and functions, in short, of what the voice is. In this thesis, I propose a model of the ‘open voice’, after the aesthetic theories of Umberto Eco’s seminal book ‘The Open Work’ of 1962, as a conceptual framework in which to make an account of the voice’s inherent multivalency and resistance to a singular reductive definition, and to propose the voice as a site of encounter and meaning construction between vocalist and receiver. Taking the concept of the ‘open voice’ as a starting point, I examine how the human voice is staged in three vocal works by composer Luciano Berio, and how the voice is diffracted through the musical structures of these works to display a multitude of different, and at times paradoxical forms and functions. In Passaggio (1963) I trace how the open voice invokes the hegemonic voice of a civic or political mass in counterpoint with the particularity and frailty of a sounding individual human body.
