Contact: [email protected] A NEW APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS OF TIMBRE by MEGAN LAVENGOOD A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty in Music in partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, The City University of New York 2017 ii © 2017 MEGAN LAVENGOOD All rights reserved ABSTRACT A New Approach to the Analysis of Timbre by Megan Lavengood Advisor: Professor Mark Spicer Two distinct approaches to timbre analysis exist, each with complementary strengths and limitations. First, music theorists from the 1980s adopt a positivist mindset and look for ways to quantify timbral phenomena, often using spectrograms, while avoiding any cultural dimensions in their work. Second, writings of the past five years focus on the cultural as- pects of timbre but make no use of spectrograms. This dissertation builds upon these two ap- proaches by synthesizing them: discussion is grounded in spectrogram analysis, but situated within a broad cultural context, through interactions with listener experience and ethno- graphic study of music periodicals and other published interviews. The theory is applicable to any genre of music, but 1980s popular music is used as a case study, with a particular fo- cus on the Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, used in much of this music. Chapter 1 outlines a methodology for timbre analysis and establishes a system of op- positional vocabulary for the analysis of the spectrogram. After providing a history of syn- thesizers in popular music to contextualize study of the Yamaha DX7 in Chapter 2, in Chap- ter 3, several hit singles using Yamaha DX7 preset sounds are analyzed in terms of texture and instrumentation, establishing three distinct categories of textural function: core, mel- ody, and novelty sounds. Through the analysis of texture, instrumentation, and timbre, tim- bral norms are established for each of the three textural functions. Chapter 4 demonstrates iv v how musical meaning can be created through the dialectic transgression of the norms artic- ulated in Chapter 3. Chapter 5 focuses on the interactions between acoustic and cultural as- pects of timbre through the close analysis of one particular DX7 preset, E. PIANO 1, which was often compared to the Fender Rhodes electric piano. A larger argument about the “’80s sound” is made by interweaving arguments from Chapters 3, 4, and 5. The 1980s can be ret- rospectively seen as a genre, created through a homogenization of timbre facilitated by the Yamaha DX7 presets. This description of the ’80s sound is valuable in its own right, but these studies also aim to show the value of studying timbre in music analysis more broadly. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I must first thank my supervisory committee for all their support and guidance at various stages throughout my dissertation. My advisor, Mark Spicer, persuaded me early in my Ph.D. to pursue popular music research, and pointed me toward the Yamaha DX7 and its factory preset sounds as the object of my study. Mark has continually stimulated my work and kept me focused on my goals. Jonathan Pieslak sparked my interest in pursuing ethnog- raphy as part of timbre analysis. My methodology was refined through abundant and bril- liant feedback from Zachary Wallmark. Poundie Burstein has provided me with an outsider’s perspective on my work in popular music and timbre analysis, which has been particularly welcome when writing proposals and abstracts. I am also grateful to many other colleagues throughout the field. My interest in both timbre and popular music grew from a final paper in a seminar at Florida State University taught by Michael Buchler, who supported my leap into the uncharted territory of timbre analysis. David Blake then gave me feedback that inspired an entire chapter of this disserta- tion when I presented this seminar paper at a conference. Joseph Straus and William Roth- stein have both been wonderful mentors throughout this process, inside and outside of their monthly dissertation group meetings. My wonderful classmates at the CUNY Graduate Center have influenced my research and uplifted me throughout the years. My participation in a reading group in semiotics, founded and led by Aaron Harcus, Tom Johnson, and Noel Torres-Rivera, had an immense impact on my thinking throughout my dissertation. Drew Fleming lent his expertise in gui- tar distortion techniques as I wrote about markedness. My cohort Simon Prosser has been a constant source of support and understanding through the highs and the lows. I also thank vi vii all the fellow students who sat with me in cafes and in the student lounge for many hours while we worked together—Elizabeth Newton, Nathan Pell, David Pearson, and too many others to name—whose presence motivated me without saying anything at all. Finally, I thank my family, particularly my loving parents, who supported my notion to be a musician from the very beginning. And above all, I thank my husband, Evan Williams, for his patience, his good nature, and his unflappability during my process of writing, and for the millions of things he did to keep me feeling loved, fed, and happy.

  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

    Digital Developments 70’s - 80’s Hybrid Synthesis “GROOVE” • In 1967, Max Mathews and Richard Moore at Bell Labs began to develop Groove (Generated Realtime Operations on Voltage- Controlled Equipment) • In 1970, the Groove system was unveiled at a “Music and Technology” conference in Stockholm. • Groove was a hybrid system which used a Honeywell DDP224 computer to store manual actions (such as twisting knobs, playing a keyboard, etc.) These actions were stored and used to control analog synthesis components in realtime. • Composers Emmanuel Gent and Laurie Spiegel worked with GROOVE Details of GROOVE GROOVE System included: - 2 large disk storage units - a tape drive - an interface for the analog devices (12 8-bit and 2 12-bit converters) - A cathode ray display unit to show the composer a visual representation of the control instructions - Large array of analog components including 12 voltage-controlled oscillators, seven voltage-controlled amplifiers, and two voltage-controlled filters Programming language used: FORTRAN Benefits of the GROOVE System: - 1st digitally controlled realtime system - Musical parameters could be controlled over time (not note-oriented) - Was used to control images too: In 1974, Spiegel used the GROOVE system to implement the program VAMPIRE (Video and Music Program for Interactive, Realtime Exploration) • Laurie Spiegel at the GROOVE Console at Bell Labs (mid 70s) The 1st Digital Synthesizer “The Synclavier” • In 1972, composer Jon Appleton, the Founder and Director of the Bregman Electronic Music Studio at Dartmouth wanted to find a way to control a Moog synthesizer with a computer • He raised this idea to Sydney Alonso, a professor of Engineering at Dartmouth and Cameron Jones, a student in music and computer science at Dartmouth.

  • Funk Is Its Own Reward": an Analysis of Selected Lyrics In
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDIES LACY, TRAVIS K. B.A. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS, 2000 "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s Advisor: Professor Daniel 0. Black Thesis dated July 2008 This research examined popular funk music as the social and political voice of African Americans during the era of the seventies. The objective of this research was to reveal the messages found in the lyrics as they commented on the climate of the times for African Americans of that era. A content analysis method was used to study the lyrics of popular funk music. This method allowed the researcher to scrutinize the lyrics in the context of their creation. When theories on the black vernacular and its historical roles found in African-American literature and music respectively were used in tandem with content analysis, it brought to light the voice of popular funk music of the seventies. This research will be useful in terms of using popular funk music as a tool to research the history of African Americans from the seventies to the present. The research herein concludes that popular funk music lyrics espoused the sentiments of the African-American community as it utilized a culturally familiar vernacular and prose to express the evolving sociopolitical themes amid the changing conditions of the seventies era.
