1 an Analysis of the Use of Tuba in Selected Works by Silvestre An Analysis of the Use of Tuba in Selected Works by Silvestre Revueltas D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Austin T. Crumrine, B.M., M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 D.M.A. Document Committee James Akins, Advisor Dr. Russel Mikkelson Bruce Henniss Dr. David Hedgecoth 1 Copyright by Austin Tyler Crumrine 2020 2 Abstract This document seeks to shed light on the function of the tuba in some of Silvestre Revueltas’ most famous works. Analysis will cover both orchestral and chamber music genres. While the focus will largely be on the tuba parts, there will also be analysis of major themes and motifs represented in other instruments in each work to better provide a clearer overall context for the piece. Inspirations for the works as well as general background information will be discussed. Compositional techniques examined include diverse instrument pairings, the tuba as an independent solo voice, and the tuba as an harmonic and rhythmic foundation. The pieces that will be analyzed are Janitzio, Sensemayá, Redes, Ventanas, and Homenaje a Federico García Lorca. ii Dedicated to my wife, Rachael, and my parents, J and Deidra. iii Vita 18 July 1993........................................................................................Born, Houston, Texas 2016..............................................................Bachelor of Music, University of North Texas 2016-2018......................................................Teaching Assistant (Jazz), Baylor University 2018..............................................................................Master of Music, Baylor University 2018-2020...................................Graduate Teaching Associate, The Ohio State University Fields of Study Major Field: Music Area of Emphasis: Tuba Performance iv Table of Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................... ii Vita ..................................................................................................................................... iv List of Figures .................................................................................................................... vi Abbreviations and Pitch Designations ............................................................................. viii Chapter 1.

    Bassic Fundamentals Course Take The Next Step On Your Bass Journey A Massive 10 Hours Of Lessons Covering Every Area Of Playing “Every bass player starts with the same goal - a solid foundation Building a strong, all-round set of bass skills can be hard work, especially when there are holes in that foundation. To avoid any pit falls you need a structured study program with a clear, simple road map covering every aspect of playing. That can be hard to find! To remedy this problem, I created Bassic Fundamentals, a huge course covering the basics of every essential area from technique to bass line creation to music theory, sight reading, bass setup, effects and much, much more. It really is a one size fits all course. Bassic Fundamentals will provide you with the skills necessary to easily progress and develop your bass playing in any area or style you desire – always building on a strong core and foundation” Mark J Smith (Creator of Talkingbass) “I took the Basic Fundamentals course shortly after picking up the instrument. Nine months after picking up the instrument and 6 months after starting the course, I went to an audition.” Mark Mahoney – USA “I play in church most weeks and wouldn’t have got anywhere near the level I’m at without these lessons.” Rob P. – Australia “After about six months of getting nowhere, I bought the Bassic Fundamentals course. My playing has been turbo charged.” Matthew Ogilvie – Western Canada “Bassic Fundamentals gave me a good starting point for practising different techniques.” Alexander Fuchs – Germany Bassic Fundamentals Course Breakdown Module 1: The Core Foundation Lesson 1-1 Course Introduction In this lesson we look at the course ahead and the kind of topics we’ll be covering Lesson 1-2 Practice Tips & Warmups Here we look at how to create a simple practice routine and work through some basic warmup exercises both on and away from the instrument Lesson 1-3 Tuning In this lesson we look at several different ways of tuning the bass: Tuning to an open string; Tuning with harmonics; Using an electronic tuner.

  • Year 11 Music Revision Guide
    Year 11 Music Revision Guidance Name the musical instrument In the exam you will be asked to name different instruments that you can hear playing. If you do not play one of these instruments it can sometimes be quite difficult to pick out what each one sounds like. You will need to know what the different instruments of the orchestra sound like, what popular musical instruments sound like and what some world instruments sound like (sitar). It is worth you visiting www.dsokids.com or www.compositionlab.co.uk where you will be able to hear these instruments individually. Describing musical sounds For some questions in the exam you will need to describe what is happening in the music, in detail! If you are asked to comment on what is happening in the music you may need to describe what a particular instrument is doing, for example: ‘The left hand of the piano is playing ascending arpeggios’. The more detail you can provide, the better! Melodic movement You may be asked to describe what is happening in the melody of a song. Remember, this means the main tune. In popular music this is often the vocal line or in instrumental music it can be described as the instrument that has the main tune (the bit that you could whistle). It could move by STEP; this means it moves to the note next to it. It could move by LEAP; this means that the melody jumps from one note to another but misses some notes out in between. This could be a low note jumping to a high note or vice versa.

    FLUTES New World Records 80403 Works by ROBERT BEASER PAUL SCHOENFIELD JOSEPH SCHWANTNER In 1986, three composers and three flutists met in a novel commissioning project supported by a National Endowment Consortium Commissioning Grant. Flutists Ransom Wilson, Carol Wincenc, and Paula Robison, each a longtime supporter and performer of new music, asked Joseph Schwantner, Paul Schoenfield, and Robert Beaser to write new works for flute and orchestra. On this recording, each solo artist presents the orchestral work composed for him or her, as well as a flute and piano "encore" by the same composer. When Aftertones of Infinity, Joseph Schwantner's first professional composition for symphony orchestra, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1979, a world of new commissions opened up to him. Born in Chicago in 1943 and trained there at the American Conservatory and Northwestern University, Schwantner had been on the faculty of the Eastman School of Music since 1970. He then was composer-in-residence with the Saint Louis Symphony from 1982 to 1985. According to Schwantner, his piece A Play of Shadows represents "an attempt to mirror [Ransom Wilson's] dramatic and compelling musical personality." Schwantner's evocative titles--Music of Amber, Distant Runes and Incantations, and A Sudden Rainbow are some of his other instrumental works -indicate a creative approach grounded in poetic imagery. "Sanctuary.../ deep forests,/a play of shadows..." is the haiku-like beginning of a brief epigraph the composer wrote in the score of A Play of Shadows, and the music's blend of repose and airy brilliance capture this image in sound.
