Master of Music (Theory), August, 1995, 86 pp., 22 examples, 5 figures, bibliography, 122 titles. This thesis presents an analysis of Copland's first major serial work, the Quartet for Piano and Strings (1950), using pitch-class set theory and tonal analytical techniques. The first chapter introduces Copland's Piano Quartet in its historical context and considers major influences on his compositional development. The second chapter takes up a pitch-class set approach to the work, emphasizing the role played by the eleven-tone row in determining salient pc sets. Chapter Three re-examines many of these same passages from the viewpoint of tonal referentiality, considering how Copland is able to evoke tonal gestures within a structural context governed by pc-set relationships. The fourth chapter will reflect on the dialectic that is played out in this work between pc-sets and tonal elements, and considers the strengths and weaknesses of various analytical approaches to the work.

This project grew out of a fascination with Schubert’s music and the varied ways of analysing it that I developed as an undergraduate at Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford. It was there that two Schubert scholars, Suzannah Clark and Susan Wollen- berg, gave me my first taste of the beauties, the peculiarities, and the challenges that Schubert’s music can offer. Having realised by the end of the course that there was a depth of study that this music repays, and that I had only made the most modest of scratches into its surface, I decided that the only way to satisfy the curiosity they had aroused in me was to continue studying the subject as a postgraduate.! ! It was at Royal Holloway that I began working with my supervisor, Paul Harper-Scott, to whom I owe a great deal. Under his supervision I was not only introduced to Hep- okoskian analysis and Sonata Theory, which forms the basis of this thesis, but also a bewildering array of literary theory that sparked my imagination in ways that I could never have foreseen.

This new disc is every bit as impressive, perhaps even more so. The very first thing we hear is the beautiful 1851 Érard, as Várjon launches into Chopin’s Introduction and Polonaise brillante (the pitch a tad lower than modern-day concert tuning). The two players bring to the Introduction a sense of freedom – consoling one moment, delicate the next, and then altogether more mournful – and the composer’s high-lying filigree in the keyboard has an effortless fluidity. The Polonaise struts its stuff without ever sounding effortful, with Isserlis’s pizzicatos really pinging through the texture. Passagework that, in some hands, can seem like mere stuffing is here never less than scintillating. Gautier Capuçon and Martha Argerich are, true to form, more extreme in this work, the polonaise rhythms exuberant, perhaps too much so, with Capuçon favouring a more full-on vibrato. Isserlis always plans his programmes painstakingly, and here makes a case for Auguste Franchomme – cellist, composer and faithful friend of Chopin’s – whose C minor Nocturne is an elegant affair, melodically charming if not harmonically particularly striking.

  • Guide to Repertoire
    Guide to Repertoire The chamber music repertoire is both wonderful and almost endless. Some have better grips on it than others, but all who are responsible for what the public hears need to know the landscape of the art form in an overall way, with at least a basic awareness of its details. At the end of the day, it is the music itself that is the substance of the work of both the performer and presenter. Knowing the basics of the repertoire will empower anyone who presents concerts. Here is a run-down of the meat-and-potatoes of the chamber literature, organized by instrumentation, with some historical context. Chamber music ensembles can be most simple divided into five groups: those with piano, those with strings, wind ensembles, mixed ensembles (winds plus strings and sometimes piano), and piano ensembles. Note: The listings below barely scratch the surface of repertoire available for all types of ensembles. The Major Ensembles with Piano The Duo Sonata (piano with one violin, viola, cello or wind instrument) Duo repertoire is generally categorized as either a true duo sonata (solo instrument and piano are equal partners) or as a soloist and accompanist ensemble. For our purposes here we are only discussing the former. Duo sonatas have existed since the Baroque era, and Johann Sebastian Bach has many examples, all with “continuo” accompaniment that comprises full partnership. His violin sonatas, especially, are treasures, and can be performed equally effectively with harpsichord, fortepiano or modern piano. Haydn continued to develop the genre; Mozart wrote an enormous number of violin sonatas (mostly for himself to play as he was a professional-level violinist as well).

MUSIC Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 Date 23 April I986 ABSTRACT In 1917, at the peak of the most productive period of his creative life, the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) undertook his First String Quartet in C, opus 37. Of the four movements originally planned, three were published in 1925. These three movements reflect important directions in the evolution of the composer's style: from a youthful fervor toward German late romanticism (First Movement), through Szymanowski*s discovery of French impressionism (Second Movement), to his most daring experiment with polytonality (Third Movement). The complexity of this work, particularly of its tonal-harmonic language, raises questions which this dissertation proposes to answer.

    36473_u01.qxd 2/6/08 4:24 PM Page 1 1 Music Terminology Titles of Works 1.1 The formal title of a work from the classical repertoire includes the key, index identifier, and sometimes its familiar or tradi- tional name. Beethoven, Symphony No. 3 in Ef Major, op. 55 (“Eroica”) or Beethoven, Symphony No. 3 in E-flat Major, op. 55 (“Eroica”) Either solution is correct. (The use of lowercase b and the num- ber symbol # for Ef and F# is not.) For most applications the spelled-out version ends posing fewer challenges to design and layout. 1.2 Generic Titles. Generic titles are those, in English, that use such describers as symphony, concerto, fantasia, and the like, often with an identifying opus or catalog number appended.

Category 2 Strategies. 151 The ways in which thematic and harmonic gestures reappear go well beyond what can be captured by the standard notions of return or recapitulation.1 Like virtually all Western music, the music of the common-practice period is characterized by formal correspondences of various kinds. Such correspondences usually do not form exact symmetries, however, even at the phrase level. This stems partly, no doubt, from distaste for too much repetition and regularity—for predictability, that is, the negative side of the symmetrical coin.2 At this very early date, Riepel could scarcely be expected to realize what he was observing; later, of course, asymmetry would set in on a much greater scale.3 If one does not perceive how a work repeats itself, the work is, almost literally, not perceptible and therefore, at the same time, not intelligible.
