    The Pianist's Freedom and the Work's Constrictions

    The Pianist’s Freedom and the Work’s Constrictions What Tempo Fluctuation in Bach and Chopin Indicate Alisa Yuko Bernhard A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music (Performance) Sydney Conservatorium of Music University of Sydney 2017 Declaration I declare that the research presented here is my own original work and has not been submitted to any other institution for the award of a degree. Alisa Yuko Bernhard 10 November 2016 i Abstract The concept of the musical work has triggered much discussion: it has been defined and redefined, and at times attacked and deconstructed, by writers including Wolterstorff, Goodman, Levinson, Davies, Nattiez, Goehr, Abbate and Parmer, to name but a few. More often than not, it is treated either as an abstract sound-structure or, in contrast, as a culturally constructed concept, even a chimera. But what is a musical work to the performer, actively engaged in a “relationship” with the work he or she is interpreting? This question, not asked often enough in scholarship, can be used to yield fascinating insights into the ontological status of the work. My thesis therefore explores the relationship between the musical work and the performance, with a specific focus on classical pianists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. I make use of two methodological starting-points for considering the nature of the work. Firstly, I survey what pianists have said and written in interviews and biographies regarding their role as interpreters of works. Secondly, I analyse pianists’ use of tempo fluctuation at structurally significant moments in a selection of pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach and Frederic Chopin.
  • Sat Oct 5 Program Notes

    Sat Oct 5 Program Notes

    PROGRAM NOTES: SAT / OCT 5 By Bill Crane, Director of Audience Engagement, Portland Piano International “When it comes to translating human emotions, the piano is the most perfect instrument I know.” – Marc-André Hamelin in his recent interview for BBC Music Magazine Whether as listener, student, teacher, composer, or performer, one has so many ways to approach the seemingly endlessly varied sonorities of the piano, ripe for expressing myriad emotions. As well, the piano allows a single performer to create such abundance of music – with such satisfying results, when in good hands – that composers for it have stretched its capacities tirelessly, always exploring possibilities. We live in a time well after all constraints of harmonic and formal practice that characterized music before the “modern” period were thrown off. Much of the music after the end of the 19th century, indeed, was quite reflective of the tumultuous times in which the Western world lived with boundless conflict and astounding change. This is particularly true, of course, of the Russian piano tradition, from which we will hear stellar examples in these recitals, but not there only. French music comes to mind, of course, with its own special harmonic innovations and suave, evocative ways. You are about to encounter bazillions of notes, more than seems humanly possible. More important, though, you are in for sublime artistry. This swirling world of music and musical ideas borne of many profound influences, some directly “artistic” and some esoteric (spiritual matters, political intrigue, lovers’ longing and laments), some clear to understand and others distinctly not so. I would bet that a majority of the pieces found in these two programs will be new to you, as they were to me.

  • The Pianistic Legacy of Olga Samaroff: Her Contributions to the Musical World

    The Pianistic Legacy of Olga Samaroff: Her Contributions to the Musical World

    The Pianistic Legacy of Olga Samaroff: Her Contributions to the Musical World The Pianistic Legacy of Olga Samaroff: Her Contributions to the Musical World Reiko ISHII Key Words： Olga Samaroff, piano pedagogy, pianist, teaching philosophy 1. Introduction 1.1 Purpose of the study This study examines the life and accomplishments of Olga Samaroff, one of the most famous and influential American musicians during the first half of the twentieth century, and discusses her contributions to music education and the musical world. Samaroff was an international concert pianist and a wife of the conductor Leopold Stokowski as well as a successful piano teacher and writer. This research begins with her biography, describes her pedagogical method and teaching philosophy, and then, discusses how her unique teaching method and high standards of musicianship influenced and contributed to culture and society in the U.S. 1.2 Significance of the study To date, research concerning Olga Samaroff is limited even though she made distinguished contributions to the classical music scene. Samaroff is a legendary but almost forgotten pianist of the early 1900’s who was overshadowed by Leopold Stokowski, her second husband as well as renowned conductor. Especially outside of the U.S., she is relatively unknown to most people and there is no publication available on Samaroff in Japan. In general, traditional piano teaching method is that student should follow what teacher says and imitate his or her teachers’ performance. Samaroff’s teaching method and philosophy were completely opposite from the traditional one. There were two purposes of her piano teaching, musical independence and human development of piano students.
