THESIS by Stuart W UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI DATE: July 15 2003 I, Stuart W. Gerber , hereby submit this as part of the requirements for the degree of: Doctor of Musical Arts in: Percussion It is entitled: Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Solo Percussion Music: A Comprehensive Study Approved by: Russell Burge James Culley Allen Otte KARLHEINZ STOCKHAUSEN’S SOLO PERCUSSION MUSIC: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS (DMA) In the Division of Performance Studies Department of Percussion of the College-Conservatory of Music 2003 by Stuart W. Gerber BM, Oberlin College, 1996 MM, University of Cincinnati, 1998 Committee Chair: Allen Otte, MM ABSTRACT Title: Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Solo Percussion Music: A Comprehensive Study Author: Stuart W. Gerber Committee Chair/Advisor: Allen Otte, MM Performance Studies Division, Percussion Department, College-Conservatory of Music Karlheinz Stockhausen (b.1928) is one of the most well-known and influential composers of the past fifty years. From his earliest music, dating from 1950, he has exploited the use of percussion and has, therefore, contributed immensely to the growth of the genre. Although much has been written about Stockhausen and his music, most of it is theoretical and/or biographical in nature. There has been relatively very little scholarship regarding the interpretation and performance practice of his music. This thesis is an in- depth study of Stockhausen’s three percussion solos Zyklus (1959), Nasenflügeltanz (1983), and Komet (1999) from an interpretive standpoint. Each of these pieces presents unique interpretive problems that are manifest in indeterminate elements whose decisions profoundly affect the final realization. Stockhausen leaves these decisions to the discretion of the performer therefore giving him/her a large responsibility in matters such as form, aesthetic, and instrumentation. The intention of this study is to create an interpretive guide to the aesthetic and technical demands that these works make on the performer and how to tackle these demands for the best possible interpretation. © Copyright by Stuart W. Gerber 2003 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my sincere appreciation to Allen Otte, James Culley, and Russell Burge for their support, scholarship, and willingness to serve on my committee, as well as for their guidance, insight, and inspiration during my advanced studies at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. My time at CCM has had an immeasurable impact on my artistic life. I am therefore indebted to these three incredible musicians. I would also like to thank my two other principal teachers, Michael Rosen, and Andreas Boettger, for leaving their indelible mark on my development as a musician. I am especially grateful to Karlheinz Stockhausen not only for the creation of these wonderful works discussed herein, but also for his willingness to help with this publication as well as interpretation of these (and other) works and his continued support of me and other young musicians. Finally, it is with the deepest humility that I thank my family: Thomas and Sarah Gerber, and Miquette and Barry Rochford. Their continued encouragement, and undying love have helped shape me as a person. Their support is immeasurable and has allowed me to follow this artistic path in my life. Without them this thesis and degree would not have been possible.

Dezember 2012 Zahlreiche zeitgenössische Instrumentalwerke überschreiten die Grenzen zwischen In- strumentalmusik und Musiktheater und stellen damit die Interpret/innen vor neue An- forderungen. Das Werk Karlheinz Stockhausens, insbesondere sein Musiktheaterzyklus LICHT, stellt dafür im Musikschaen des 20. Jahrhunderts ein herausragendes Beispiel dar. Diese Arbeit dokumentiert die auührungspraktische Auseinandersetzung mit die- sem Werkkomplex. Anhand der Szene HALT aus DONNERSTAG aus LICHT, die letz- tes Jahr im Rahmen eines künstlerischen Forschungsprojekts einstudiert und aufgeführt wurde, wird ein Einblick in Stockhausens ästhetische und musiktheatralische Konzepte vermittelt. Inhaltliche Kriterien für die Entwicklung einer werktreuen Neuinterpretati- on werden genauso vorgestellt wie performative Aufgaben, denen Musiker/innen für die Arbeit an musikalisch-szenischen Werken gewachsen sein müssen. Many contemporary instrumental works are crossing the borders between instrumental music and music theatre, thus imposing new challenges to their interpreters.

  • Developing Sound Spatialization Tools for Musical Applications with Emphasis on Sweet Spot and Off-Center Perception
    Sweet [re]production: Developing sound spatialization tools for musical applications with emphasis on sweet spot and off-center perception Nils Peters Music Technology Area Department of Music Research Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, QC, Canada October 2010 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. c 2010 Nils Peters 2010/10/26 i Abstract This dissertation investigates spatial sound production and reproduction technology as a mediator between music creator and listener. Listening experiments investigate the per- ception of spatialized music as a function of the listening position in surround-sound loud- speaker setups. Over the last 50 years, many spatial sound rendering applications have been developed and proposed to artists. Unfortunately, the literature suggests that artists hardly exploit the possibilities offered by novel spatial sound technologies. Another typical drawback of many sound rendering techniques in the context of larger audiences is that most listeners perceive a degraded sound image: spatial sound reproduction is best at a particular listening position, also known as the sweet spot. Structured in three parts, this dissertation systematically investigates both problems with the objective of making spatial audio technology more applicable for artistic purposes and proposing technical solutions for spatial sound reproductions for larger audiences. The first part investigates the relationship between composers and spatial audio tech- nology through a survey on the compositional use of spatialization, seeking to understand how composers use spatialization, what spatial aspects are essential and what functionali- ties spatial audio systems should strive to include. The second part describes the development process of spatializaton tools for musical applications and presents a technical concept.

When I was composing the work, I had no accessory feelings or thoughts; I knew only that I had to fulfill the mantra. And it demanded itself, it just started blossoming. As it was being constructed through me, I somehow felt that it must be a very true picture of the way the cosmos is constructed, I’ve never worked on a piece before in which I was so sure that every note I was putting down was right. And this was due to the integral systemization - the combination of the scalar idea with the idea of deriving everything from the One. It shines very strongly. - Karlheinz Stockhausen Mantra is a seminal piece of the twentieth century, a pivotal work both in the context of Stockhausen’s compositional development and a tour de force contribution to the canon of music for two pianos. It was written in 1970 in two stages: the formal skeleton was conceived in Osaka, Japan (May 1 – June 20, 1970) and the remaining work was completed in Kürten, Germany (July 10 – August 18, 1970).
