Les harmonies audacieuses de CARLO GESUALDO Carlo Gesualdo répondent aux grappes sonores et aux lignes serrantes du compositeur allemand. Wolfgang Rihm": Fetzen IV pour accordéon et alto Toute une série d’œuvres de Wolfgang Rihm prend comme Dyade pour violon et contrebasse Uber Die Linie VI pour flûte alto, violon et violoncelle objet la ligne instrumentale, afranchie de tout système, se déployant librement dans l’espace pour former, comme dans Carlo Gesualdo": Répons pour la Semaine Sainte (sélection de motets à six voix) alterné avec Dyade pour violon et contrebasse et Uber Die Linie VI pour Wolfgang Rihm": Sieben Passionstexte flûte alto, violon et violoncelle, des arabesques qui jamais Musiciens de l’Ensemble L’Instant Donné": Mayu Sato-Brémaud, flûte ; Saori Furukawa, violon.; ne se coagulent en une ferme polyphonie.

Dans Tenebrae, le compositeur reprend les sept motets sur Production Festival d’Automne à Paris des textes latins de la Passion qui composaient ses Vigilia pour chœur à six voix, cette fois-ci confrontés aux Répons pour la Semaine Sainte de Carlo Gesualdo (publiés en 1611). On entend ainsi deux mises en musique de ces textes, destinés à être chantés avant la résurrection de la lumière pascale. Un étrange répons s’instaure entre les poussées de fièvre chromatique qui gagnent la musique du compositeur de la Renaissance et l’harmonie comme hors temps de Rihm, où les voix hésitent, s’interrompent, forment des grappes sonores lumineuses ou retrouvent la tonalité de manière oblique, puis se libèrent à nouveau pour cheminer le long de textes qui disent l’obscurité, le doute et la soufrance.

Je suis devenu comme un homme sans secours, abandonné I – Tristis est anima mea parmi les morts. Mon âme est triste jusqu’à la mort ; Ils me placèrent dans ne fosse profonde, dans les ténèbres, à Restez ici et veillez avec moi ; l’ombre de la mort. Bientôt vous verrez une foule qui va m’entourer. Vous prendrez la fuite, et je serai immolé pour vous.

Le voile du temple se déchira, toute la terre trembla, Et l’un des voleurs criaît de sa croix : Souvenez-vous de moi, Seigneur, lorsque vous serez arrivé dans votre royaume. Les pierres se fendirent, les sépulcres s’ouvrirent, Et beaucoup de corps de saints, qui s’étaient endormis, res- suscitèrent. IV – Tenebrae factae sunt Les ténèbres couvrirent la terre au moment où les juifs cru- cifiaient Jésus ; Et vers la neuvième heure, il poussa un grand cri, disant : Mon Dieu, pourquoi m’avez-vous abandonné ? Et ayant incliné la tête, Il rendît l’âme. Jésus dît d’une voix forte : Mon Père, je remets mon âme entre vos mains. V – Caligaverunt oculi mei a fletu meo Mes yeux sont obscurcis par mes larmes ; car il s’est éloigné de moi, Celui qui me consolait ; peuples, voyez, s’il est une douleur, semblable à la mienne. O, vous qui passez par le chemin, regardez et voyez, s’il est une douleur semblable à la mienne. VI – Recessît pastor noster Notre Pasteur, la fontaine d’eau vive, s’est éloigné, et à son passage le soleil s’est obscurci. Car il a été pris, celui qu tenaît captif le premier homme ; aujourd’hui notre Sauveur a brisé les portes et les verrous de la mort. Il a détruit les prisons de l’enfer et a renversé les puissances du diable. 8 Carlo Gesualdo Répons pour la Semaine Sainte Les Responsoria et alia ad Ofcium Hebdomadae Sanctae spectantia, titre original des Répons, peuvent être considérés comme le testament de Gesualdo, personnage étrange, violent, vindicatif et cependant d’une grande piété : figure complexe et contradictoire, qui joue éminemment un rôle-clé dans cette période charnière qu’est le début du XVIIe siècle, son apport est fondamental dans l’afrmation d’une musique nouvelle, dramatique et moderne — la « Seconda prattica ».

  • Stockhausen's Cosmic Pulses
    Robin Maconie: Stockhausen’s Cosmic Pulses 2009–14 (copyright) 1 Stockhausen’s Cosmic Pulses ROBIN MACONIE Some people chase tornados; others go after black holes. From the late 1950s Stockhausen was fascinated by the idea of sounds in rotation and how to realise them in a technical sense, by means of an array of loudspeakers. Completed in 2007, Cosmic Pulses is Stockhausen’s final electronic composition.1 For a number of reasons I believe the composer knew it would be his last. The work was completed in a rush. In many ways, notably in terms of the sound material, which is very basic, it remains a sketch. The music can be described as a massive rotating sound mass, composed in 24 separately spinning frequency layers. The work thickens gradually to 24 layers, then reduces symmetrically upward in an ascending spiral that ends quite abruptly. An audience may experience the sensation of falling headlong into a black hole, or, if one is an optimist, of being carried aloft on the whirlwind like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. A tornado is an effect of a natural imbalance between temperature layers in the atmosphere, tipped into motion by the earth’s rotation, which moves progressively faster toward the equator. The rotating air mass that results spirals upwards and generates a powerful electrical charge. A black hole by comparison is an effect of gravitation creating an imbalance in spacetime. The rotational process that results spirals downward or inward and leads to the extinction of reality as we know it, or again, if one is an optimist, creates a wormhole leading either into another universe, or into our own universe at Robin Maconie: Stockhausen’s Cosmic Pulses 2009–14 (copyright) 2 another point in time.

Zwar war Stockhausen selbst ein Teil der westdeutschen musikalischen Avantgarde nach 1945 und prägte daher zahlreiche Neuerungen der hiesigen damaligen Musikgeschich- te, – hier sind serielle Techniken ebenso wie die künstliche Tonerzeu- gung mit Studiotechnik erwähnenswert, – endgültig verpflichtet bliebt er jedoch keinem der dort erprobten Ansätze und verband die gewon- nenen Anregungen

  • John Cage's Entanglement with the Ideas Of
    JOHN CAGE’S ENTANGLEMENT WITH THE IDEAS OF COOMARASWAMY Edward James Crooks PhD University of York Music July 2011 John Cage’s Entanglement with the Ideas of Coomaraswamy by Edward Crooks Abstract The American composer John Cage was famous for the expansiveness of his thought. In particular, his borrowings from ‘Oriental philosophy’ have directed the critical and popular reception of his works. But what is the reality of such claims? In the twenty years since his death, Cage scholars have started to discover the significant gap between Cage’s presentation of theories he claimed he borrowed from India, China, and Japan, and the presentation of the same theories in the sources he referenced. The present study delves into the circumstances and contexts of Cage’s Asian influences, specifically as related to Cage’s borrowings from the British-Ceylonese art historian and metaphysician Ananda K. Coomaraswamy. In addition, Cage’s friendship with the Jungian mythologist Joseph Campbell is detailed, as are Cage’s borrowings from the theories of Jung. Particular attention is paid to the conservative ideology integral to the theories of all three thinkers. After a new analysis of the life and work of Coomaraswamy, the investigation focuses on the metaphysics of Coomaraswamy’s philosophy of art. The phrase ‘art is the imitation of nature in her manner of operation’ opens the doors to a wide- ranging exploration of the mimesis of intelligible and sensible forms. Comparing Coomaraswamy’s ‘Traditional’ idealism to Cage’s radical epistemological realism demonstrates the extent of the lack of congruity between the two thinkers. In a second chapter on Coomaraswamy, the extent of the differences between Cage and Coomaraswamy are revealed through investigating their differing approaches to rasa , the Renaissance, tradition, ‘art and life’, and museums.

Introduction “We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.” -Anais Nin Living in Hungary has allowed me an insight into better understanding Hungarian composers and their world. This, in turn, has given me a more complete comprehension of their music. My original goal was to better grasp what I perceived to be a sense of honesty in Hungarian classical music, an immediacy and direct purpose that classical music from some other areas of origin does not often display. I found that this honesty does indeed exist in the works of many varied Hungarian composers, and I began the interesting process of trying to determine why.

    C H A P T E R 2 Early Electronic Music in Europe I noticed without surprise by recording the noise of things that one could perceive beyond sounds, the daily metaphors that they suggest to us. —Pierre Schaeffer Before the Tape Recorder Musique Concrète in France L’Objet Sonore—The Sound Object Origins of Musique Concrète Listen: Early Electronic Music in Europe Elektronische Musik in Germany Stockhausen’s Early Work Other Early European Studios Innovation: Electronic Music Equipment of the Studio di Fonologia Musicale (Milan, c.1960) Summary Milestones: Early Electronic Music of Europe Plate 2.1 Pierre Schaeffer operating the Pupitre d’espace (1951), the four rings of which could be used during a live performance to control the spatial distribution of electronically produced sounds using two front channels: one channel in the rear, and one overhead. (1951 © Ina/Maurice Lecardent, Ina GRM Archives) 42 EARLY HISTORY – PREDECESSORS AND PIONEERS A convergence of new technologies and a general cultural backlash against Old World arts and values made conditions favorable for the rise of electronic music in the years following World War II. Musical ideas that met with punishing repression and indiffer- ence prior to the war became less odious to a new generation of listeners who embraced futuristic advances of the atomic age. Prior to World War II, electronic music was anchored down by a reliance on live performance. Only a few composers—Varèse and Cage among them—anticipated the importance of the recording medium to the growth of electronic music. This chapter traces a technological transition from the turntable to the magnetic tape recorder as well as the transformation of electronic music from a medium of live performance to that of recorded media.
