February 2003 Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis, submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music at the University of Cape Town, has not been submitted by me previously for a degree at another university. Signed Date University of Cape Town Abstract The piano music of Peter James Leonard Klatzow forms an integral part of his musical output. An analysis of these works may provide useful insight into the compositional style of this South African composer. Jan LaRue's theory of stylistic analysis formed the inspiration for the analytical approach of the thesis, and the main focus of this analysis is the 1994 composition, From the Poets. This work is analysed in terms of use of sound, harmony and melody in order to attempt an understanding of how these elements impactTown and contribute to the sense of structure. Other works that have been completed since 1980 are analysed in terms of the main motivic and harmonicCape material, with occasional reference to other musical parameters thatof are important for an understanding of the musical discourse.

    The Technical and Interpretative Challenges in the Marimba Works of Peter Klatzow: a Performer’S Analysis

    THE TECHNICAL AND INTERPRETATIVE CHALLENGES IN THE MARIMBA WORKS OF PETER KLATZOW: A PERFORMER’S ANALYSIS By Cherilee Adams Dissertation presented for the degree of Master of Music in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Professor Hans Roosenschoon (Department of Music) December 2015 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ~DECLARATION~ By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Cherilee Adams December 2015 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ~ABSTRACT~ Peter Klatzow (1945-) is one of the few renowned South African composers to have gained international recognition for his works. This is primarily due to his marimba pieces that are constantly prescribed for international competitions and that have formed a part of the standard repertoire for advanced and ambitious marimbists. One of the principal motivations for why these works are regularly sought-after by panel and performer alike is due to the technical demands and challenges that they possess. These technical issues are predominantly based on the performer‟s physical restrictions, their lack of tactile proximity with the instrument, and the marimba‟s resonant limitations. Not only are Klatzow‟s works technically very demanding, but also quite often challenging to interpret.

    Chapter 1: from Autonomy to Heteronomy: a Change of Paradigm in South African Art Music, 1980-2006

    Chapter 1: From autonomy to heteronomy: A change of paradigm in South African art music, 1980-2006 Introduction Composition in South Africa has been an increasingly contested artistic and ideological space since the early 1980s. In this dissertation I argue that the demise of apartheid and the rise of democracy resulted in an institutional and aesthetic crisis for the field of composition, embodied in musical terms by a shift away from a Eurocentric paradigm to a cross-cultural one that embraced various ‘African elements’ within a framework of modernism and discourse of accessibility. In this chapter I consider the factors – both internal to the field of art music and those resulting from larger societal changes – that contributed to this artistic and ideological shift. Partly I am concerned with the politics of the field itself: the struggle for power within a highly contested cultural space. More broadly I am interested in the position of the field relative to changes in society at the macro level, in terms of race, class, and economic imperatives. A central question is, to what extent did the restructuring of the field in response to these changed imperatives affect the aesthetic choices of composers? The autonomy of art music during apartheid was challenged by the politicization of the field during the 1980s. The extent and rapidity of social and institutional change, and the new self-consciousness that it evoked in composers previously only concerned with “production for producers” (Bourdieu 1993:15), resulted in a crisis that foreshadowed an aesthetic revolution, or change of paradigm. In this chapter I present the theoretical basis for this claim and explain some of the historical reasons for its emergence.

    South African Music in Transition: a Flutist's Perspective

    South African Music in Transition: A Flutist‘s Perspective by Liesel Margrit Deppe A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Liesel Margrit Deppe (2012) South African Music in Transition: A Flutist‘s Perspective Liesel Margrit Deppe Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2012 ABSTRACT In April 1994 the citizens of South Africa found themselves in the unique position of contemplating a new national culture; one that would for the first time embrace all South Africans, regardless of race, colour or religion. Official segregation, which began in 1948, ended with the first democratic election held in1994. Cross-cultural awareness in South Africa emerged in the 1980s. Within this temporal context, this investigation will trace parallel developments in the South African classical music genre and will relate these developments to the concurrent socio-political environment. Looking specifically at music written for the flute, the selected works were composed for the flute as a solo instrument, or in combination with up to four other instruments by a cross-section of South African composers who either live in South Africa or who have South African roots. The works included in this study were composed roughly ten years before and after 1994; the purpose being to document the changes that were taking place in South African Art Music leading up to the first democratic election and during the exciting times that followed.
