Steve Sachse 2018 Copyright by Stephen Michael Sachse 2018 Root Motion: For Chamber Ensemble With Electronics by Stephen Michael Sachse Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2018 Acknowledgments I would like to express my most sincere appreciation to the entire composition faculty of the University of Texas at Austin: Russell Pinkston, Yevgeniy Sharlat, Bruce Pennycook, Donald Grantham, and Dan Welcher. I have needed every bit of help and knowledge you have provided along the way in staying on my feet and finding my path forward as an artist. You were there for me when I needed you the most, and I will forever be grateful to all of you for that. I would also like to thank my closest friends in the department who have also stuck by my side and encouraged me every step of the way: Eli, Jon, José, Kramer, Chris and Chris, Josh, Robert, Corey, Lauren, and Michael. I also want to extend my most heartfelt thanks to Dr. Russell Pinkston. With the utmost sincerity and respect I would like to congratulate you on your career as an educator, researcher, and leader within the fields of composition and electronic music. I can say beyond any shadow of doubt that you have been the most influential teacher in my life, and have been one of my most deeply respected friends and allies. Each one of us greatly appreciated the way that you organized the electronic music program and its concerts, cared for the studios, handled the electronic music forum, and the way that you have led by example. You have always respected and promoted your peers while exemplifying excellence, thoroughness, and true humility as a researcher and fellow human being. The education that I received from the UT electronic music studios cannot be replaced. Thank you for all that you have done, and I wish you all the best in the future. iv Root Motion: For Chamber Ensemble With Electronics by Stephen Michael Sachse, D.M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2018 Supervisor: Russell Pinkston Electronics have shared a relationship with acoustic instruments for a number of years within the field of composition. They have provided composers a variety of opportunities for expression across a diverse array of mediums, and offered new ways to organize their creative ideas. With the continued development of the Virtual Studio Technology interface, resources such as modular-based softsynths have become increasingly accessible to composers, alongside a myriad of plugin-based tools that allow for the production of recorded and sequenced music at the highest levels of audio fidelity. This dissertation explores the ways in which these tools can be used creatively to offer composers an outlet for their ideas across stylistic genres, as well as promote self-reliance and sustainability in situations where performance opportunities might be limited, outlining my own experiences as a reference point. v Table of Contents List of Figures ....................................................................................................................... viii!

One of the privileges of being a student within an academic composition program is that you are able to frequently attend presentations, and speak with both performers and composers alike who have found a way to make things work for themselves within the current social environment surrounding academic music and composition. A few of these presentations, and a number of the themes from these experiences have stuck with me over the years. I will do my best to summarize them briefly as an explanation for my current compositional process and musical decisions. When I attended the University of Colorado at Boulder, the course1 that had the most profound influence on my current ideas regarding the state of new music was one that discussed

    Käraste Micke med barn, Tillsammans med er sörjer vi en underbar persons hädangång, och medan ni har förlorat en hustru och en mamma har miljoner av beundrare världen över förlorat en vän och en inspirationskälla. Många av dessa kände att de hade velat prata med er, dela sina historier om Marie med er, om vad hon betydde för dem, och hur mycket hon har förändrat deras liv. Det ni håller i era händer är en samling av över 6200 berättelser, funderingar och minnen från människor ni förmodligen inte kän- ner personligen, men som Marie har gjort ett enormt intryck på. Ni kommer att hitta både sorgliga och glada inlägg förstås, men huvuddelen av dem visar faktiskt hur enormt mycket bättre världen har blivit med hjälp av er, och vår, Marie. Hon kommer att leva kvar i så många människors hjärtan, och hon kommer aldrig att glömmas. Tack för allt Marie, The Daily Roxette å tusentals beundrares vägnar. A A. Sarper Erokay from Ankara/ Türkiye: How beautiful your heart was, how beautiful your songs were. It is beyond the words to describe my sorrow, yet it was pleasant to share life on world with you in the same time frame. Many of Roxette songs inspired me through life, so many memories both sad and pleasant. May angels brighten your way through joining the universe, rest in peace. Roxette music will echo forever wihtin the hearts, world and in eternity. And you’ll be remembered! A.Frank from Germany: Liebe Marie, dein Tod hat mich zu tiefst traurig gemacht. Ich werde deine Musik immer wieder hören.

MEET THE TEAM Editor t is with a great deal of sadness, that I acknowlege that this will be my last issue as Alan Cackett editor of Maverick. I have always believed that when you no longer enjoy doing 24 Bray Gardens, Loose, Maidstone, Kent, ME15 9TR, UK something, then it’s time to stop and look to do something di erent. I have had a 01622 744481 Igood run as editor, and now is the time to hand over to someone younger. Someone who [email protected] can hopefully take the magazine forward, embracing country music’s future whilst not Managing Editor overlooking its huge legacy of the past. I know that the new editor Laura Bethell who Michelle Teeman 01622 823920 worked with me for 5 years, 2 as my deputy editor, will do just that. [email protected] It was just over 47 years ago that I edited and published Britain’s rst regular monthly country music magazine. Looking back that was quite an audacious and bold undertaking Designer Laura Bethell for a teenager from a council house estate who le school at 15. Some of the original 01622 823922 readers of Country Music Monthly are still around and have continued to follow my writing [email protected] and views on the music as readers of Maverick. ere was a time when I not only knew Editorial Assistant many of the Maverick readers’ names but had a personal contact with them, but recently Chris Beck I’ve lost touch and I have to say that I miss the chats that we used to have when they phoned Project Manager up to renew their subscriptions.

However, the research shows that these same choral directors are reluctant to select multicultural octavos because they lack training in non-Western music, which prevents them from effectively teaching and performing this music authentically.
