På Sporet Af Else Marie Pades Konkrete Musik
A-PDF Merger DEMO : Purchase from www.A-PDF.com to remove the watermark På sporet af Else Marie Pades konkrete musik En analyse af den æstetiske forbindelse mellem Else Marie Pades Symphonie magnétophonique og Pierre Schaeffers musique concrète Speciale ved Stine Kvist Jeppesen Afdeling for Musikvidenskab Institut for Æstetiske Fag, Aarhus Universitet Vejleder: Erling Kullberg Den 24. juli 2010 Forsidebilledet er en visualisering af en passage fra Else Marie Pades Symphonie magnétophonique, skabt af den grafiske designer Lisbeth Damgaard i 2006. Damgaards visuelle fortolkning af musikken er skabt med udgangspunkt i spektrogrammer fra det originale værk. De blå, brune, gule og grønne farver illustrerer lyden af hhv. lærketrille, fuglesang, mælkemandsfløjt og mælkeflasker, som er de lyde, der indleder Pades Symphonie magnétophonique. Billedet er hentet fra bogen Else Marie Pade og Symphonie magnétophonique, der er redigeret af Inge Bruland i 2006. Abstract This master thesis investigates to which extend it is possible to categorise the works of Danish composer Else Marie Pade (1924‐) as musique concrète, a term often used in Danish music research and critique to descibe Pade’s music. The thesis presumes that the appraisal of Pade’s music as musique concrète rests on a reduced understanding of musique concrète, inasmuch as this has only been sporadic and cursorily accounted for in a Danish context. To make a scholarly qualified reappraisal of Pade’s pioneer works of musique concrète, the master thesis will investigate the aesthetic link between Pades Symphonie magnétophonique and the music and aesthetics of the French composer and founder of musique concrète Pierre Schaeffer. The first two parts of the thesis will include an introduction to Pade’s work as well as an account and discussion of the reception of her music. -
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. -

Holmes Electronic and Experimental Music
C H A P T E R 3 Early Electronic Music in the United States I was at a concert of electronic music in Cologne and I noticed that, even though it was the most recent electronic music, the audience was all falling asleep. No matter how interesting the music was, the audience couldn’t stay awake. That was because the music was coming out of loudspeakers. —John Cage Louis and Bebe Barron John Cage and The Project of Music for Magnetic Tape Innovation: John Cage and the Advocacy of Chance Composition Cage in Milan Listen: Early Electronic Music in the United States The Columbia–Princeton Electronic Music Center The Cooperative Studio for Electronic Music Roots of Computer Music Summary Milestones: Early Electronic Music of the United States Plate 3.1 John Cage and David Tudor, 1962. (John Cage Trust) 80 EARLY HISTORY – PREDECESSORS AND PIONEERS Electronic music activity in the United States during the early 1950s was neither organ- ized nor institutional. Experimentation with tape composition took place through the efforts of individual composers working on a makeshift basis without state support. Such fragmented efforts lacked the cohesion, doctrine, and financial support of their Euro- pean counterparts but in many ways the musical results were more diverse, ranging from works that were radically experimental to special effects for popular motion pictures and works that combined the use of taped sounds with live instrumentalists performing on stage. The first electronic music composers in North America did not adhere to any rigid schools of thought regarding the aesthetics of the medium and viewed with mixed skepticism and amusement the aesthetic wars taking place between the French and the Germans. -

La prima composizione del programma odierno è “Gesang der Jünglinge”; in essa, già nel lontano 1955-1956, Stockhausen mescola procedimenti e tecniche della musica elettronica (prodotto prevalentemente tedesco) con elementi della musica concreta "francese”. Fino ad allora i due ambiti erano sempre stati accuratamente separati in maniera quasi "religiosa”, mentre qui si fondono in un'opera di profonda spiritualità. La prima idea era stata quella di comporre una "Messa" - infatti il testo di cui il compositore si è servito è un testo biblico: la storia dal Libro di Daniele che ci racconta come i giovani Neduchadnezzar, Shadrach, Meshach e Abendnego, buttati in un forno ardente, miracolosamente protetti dal fuoco, cominciano a cantare le lodi a Dio. -
Holmes Electronic and Experimental Music
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. -

Battles Around New Music in New York in the Seventies
Presenting the New: Battles around New Music in New York in the Seventies A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY David Grayson, Adviser December 2012 © Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher 2012 i Acknowledgements One of the best things about reaching the end of this process is the opportunity to publicly thank the people who have helped to make it happen. More than any other individual, thanks must go to my wife, who has had to put up with more of my rambling than anybody, and has graciously given me half of every weekend for the last several years to keep working. Thank you, too, to my adviser, David Grayson, whose steady support in a shifting institutional environment has been invaluable. To the rest of my committee: Sumanth Gopinath, Kelley Harness, and Richard Leppert, for their advice and willingness to jump back in on this project after every life-inflicted gap. Thanks also to my mother and to my kids, for different reasons. Thanks to the staff at the New York Public Library (the one on 5th Ave. with the lions) for helping me track down the SoHo Weekly News microfilm when it had apparently vanished, and to the professional staff at the New York Public Library for Performing Arts at Lincoln Center, and to the Fales Special Collections staff at Bobst Library at New York University. Special thanks to the much smaller archival operation at the Kitchen, where I was assisted at various times by John Migliore and Samara Davis. -
