A Key Element of the Fugue Form During the 20Th Century
DOI: 10.2478/ajm-2018-0010 Artes. Journal of Musicology no. 17-18 2018 161-179 The Subject – A Key Element of the Fugue Form during the 20th Century GABRIELA VLAHOPOL “George Enescu” National University of Arts Iaşi ROMÂNIA∗ Abstract: The great stylistic epochs of the past mostly had syntaxes and specific forms, escaping in the context of the application of polyphonic syntax to the tonal system. The twentieth century, characterized by a continuous mobility and search in the field of the musical language, does not intend to create new musical forms but takes preexisting patterns, which adapt to the creative contexts specific to the composers. Thus, despite the blurring of some of the fundamental elements, other factors of configuration and construction were maintained and amplified, as well as the particular phenomenon, the most significant phenomenon being the development of the thematic principle, which will have its particular manifestations in the fugue form, the diversity of its interpretations bearing the mark of some new directions. Keywords: the fugue form, theme, exposition, 20th century. 1. Introduction A complex thematic form, based on the exposition archetype, the fugue form has as a main constructive reference the thematic articulation, which in the course of the work undergoes more or less considerable transformations, and which, through episodic appearance, determines the organization of the whole in distinct architectural segments with specific functionality. Due to the importance of the theme in establishing the coordinates of the form, the present study deals with several aspects of articulation in the musical context of the 20th century, which are novelties in relation to the knowledge about the theme of the Baroque fugue. -

Wandlungen in Paul Hindemiths Bach-Verständnis Welches
BACH-BILDER IM 20. JAHRHUNDERT Hermann Danuser: DER KLASSIKER ALS JANUS? Wandlungen in Paul Hindemiths Bach-Verständnis Welches theoretische Modell man auch immer für den Gegenstand einer "Wirkungs-" oder "Rezeptionsgeschichte" bevorzugt - man kann, um grob zu kontrastieren, entweder von der Vielgestaltigkeit eines OEuvres ausgehen, dessen geistig-künstlerische Potenz auf Zeit- genossenschaft und Nachwelt "wirkt", oder aber von der Mannigfaltigkeit der Konkreti- sierungen, in denen Mit- und Nachwelt ein OEuvre "rezipiert" - , in jedem Fall darf man dem \~erk Johann Sebastian Bachs seit dem 19. Jahrhundert den Status der Klassizität beimessen, später gar - so meine ich - den einer Universalität, die von der Musik keines anderen Komponisten übertroffen oder auch nur erreicht worden ist. Dies gilt auch für die erste Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, in kompositionsgeschichtlicher Hinsicht für diesen Zeitraum sogar ganz besonders, überdauerte doch Bach als einziger Klassiker die musikhistorische Epochenzäsur um 1920 in ungeschmälertem Maße, indem er für Roman- tik und Moderne vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg ebenso wie danach für beide Richtungen des Neoklassizismus, für die neotonale Strawinskys und Hindemiths nicht minder als für die dodekaphone der Schönberg-Schule, von freilich verschiedenartiger, stets wieder erneu- erter Bedeutung war und blieb. Solch dauerhafte Geltung aber ist undenkbar ohne tief- greifendste Wandlungen in den Rezeptionsaspekten der Bachsehen Musik. Wer sich nun das Bach-Bild Paul Hindemiths vergegenwärtigt, wird wohl zuerst an -
Simple Structure in Musica Ricercata
LIGETI’S EARLY EXPERIMENTS IN COMPOSITIONAL PROCESS: SIMPLE STRUCTURES IN MUSICA RICERCATA Daniel Grantham, BM Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2014 APPROVED: Daniel Arthurs, Major Professor Stephen Slottow, Committee Member Andrew May, Committee Member Frank Heidleberger, Chair of the Department of Music History, Theory, Ethnomusicology Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Grantham, Daniel. Ligeti’s Early Experiments in Compositional Process: Simple Structures in Musica Ricercata. Master of Music (Music Theory), December 2014, 115 pp., 4 figures, 15 musical examples, references, 46 titles. This study examines the formation of a unique chromatic and formal language in Musica Ricercata by György Ligeti. The study begins by examining statements from an interview with Ligeti conducted by Ove Nordwall in 1979. The interview discusses his compositional experiments from the early 1950s, the period in which Musica Ricercata was composed. Working from Ligeti’s words, “simple structures” are defined as repeating formations of rhythms and intervals with easily discernable features. These features must be salient such that when the structure is altered, it is still clearly and audibly recognizable. The musical and political environment in Hungary at the time is established, providing context for this early experimentation with compositional parameters. The analysis begins with an overview of the entire work, outlining developments of pitch-class density, symmetrical pitch-class structures, and notated accelerandi over the course of the multi-movement work. Analyses of simple structures in each movement elucidate both Ligeti’s experimental approaches to chromaticism, along with more traditional aspects, with special reference to Bartók’s compositional style. -

An Analysis of Honegger's Cello Concerto
AN ANALYSIS OF HONEGGER’S CELLO CONCERTO (1929): A RETURN TO SIMPLICITY? Denika Lam Kleinmann, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2014 APPROVED: Eugene Osadchy, Major Professor Clay Couturiaux, Minor Professor David Schwarz, Committee Member Daniel Arthurs, Committee Member John Holt, Chair of the Division of Instrumental Studies James Scott, Dean of the School of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Kleinmann, Denika Lam. An Analysis of Honegger’s Cello Concerto (1929): A Return to Simplicity? Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2014, 58 pp., 3 tables, 28 examples, 33 references, 15 titles. Literature available on Honegger’s Cello Concerto suggests this concerto is often considered as a composition that resonates with Les Six traditions. While reflecting currents of Les Six, the Cello Concerto also features departures from Erik Satie’s and Jean Cocteau’s ideal for French composers to return to simplicity. Both characteristics of and departures from Les Six examined in this concerto include metric organization, thematic and rhythmic development, melodic wedge shapes, contrapuntal techniques, simplicity in orchestration, diatonicism, the use of humor, jazz influences, and other unique performance techniques.

PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher
PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Wolfgang Mozart – Piano Concerto No. 20 in D Minor, K. 464 Born January 27, 1756, Salzburg, Austria. Died December 5, 1791, Vienna, Austria. Piano Concerto No. 20 in D Minor, K. 464 Mozart entered this concerto in his catalog on February 10, 1785, and performed the solo in the premiere the next day in Vienna. The orchestra consists of one flute, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, timpani, and strings. At these concerts, Shai Wosner plays Beethoven’s cadenza in the first movement and his own cadenza in the finale. Performance time is approximately thirty-four minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s first subscription concert performances of Mozart’s Piano Concerto no. 20 were given at Orchestra Hall on January 14 and 15, 1916, with Ossip Gabrilowitsch as soloist and Frederick Stock conducting. Our most recent subscription concert performances were given on March 15, 16, and 17, 2007, with Mitsuko Uchida conducting from the keyboard. The Orchestra first performed this concerto at the Ravinia Festival on July 6, 1961, with John Browning as soloist and Josef Krips conducting, and most recently on July 8, 2007, with Jonathan Biss as soloist and James Conlon conducting. This is the Mozart piano concerto that Beethoven admired above all others. It’s the only one he played in public (and the only one for which he wrote cadenzas). Throughout the nineteenth century, it was the sole concerto by Mozart that was regularly performed—its demonic power and dark beauty spoke to musicians who had been raised on Beethoven, Chopin, and Liszt. -
