No primeiro capítulo, apresenta-se uma breve biografia deste compositor, com foco em sua trajetória musical, em suas obras e nos compositores com os quais teve contato. O capítulo seguinte é dedicado a análises formais de suas sonatas, contemplando especialmente os primeiros movimentos, em que obras de CAPLIN (1998), HEPOKOSKI & DARCY (2006) e ROSEN (1988) foram as principais referências. No terceiro capítulo, investiga-se os elementos texturais de suas sonatas a partir da associação com a literatura especializada em práticas interpretativas, especialmente àquelas que abordam o estilo musical dos compositores da Escola de Londres, com os quais Bomtempo teve contato. Por fim, o último capítulo relaciona o conteúdo de capítulos anteriores a fim de realizar uma proposta interpretativa para a Sonata opus 15 n.1 de Bomtempo. Nesta pesquisa, é possível ver a maneira como aspectos formais e texturais de uma obra musical podem ser enfatizados em uma performance a fim de enriquecer a musicalidade, fornecendo possibilidades interpretativas. / This research aims at the presentation of a stylistic overview of the João Domingos Bomtempo’s piano sonatas, aiming the musical interpretation. In the first chapter, is presented a brief biography of this composer, focusing on his musical trajectory, his works and the composers with whom he had contact. The following chapter is dedicated to formal analyzes of his sonatas, contemplating especially the first movements, in which works by CAPLIN (1998), HEPOKOSKI & DARCY (2006) and ROSEN (1988) were the main references. In the third chapter, the texture elements of his sonatas are investigated, from the association with the specialized literature in interpretive practices, especially those that deal with the musical style of the composers of the London Pianoforte School, with whom Bomtempo had contact. Finally, the last chapter associates the content of previous chapters in order to make an interpretative proposal for Bomtempo’s Sonata opus 15 n.1. In this research, it is possible to see a way in which formal and textural aspects of a musical work can be emphasized in a musical performance in order to enrich the musicality, providing interpretive possibilities.

Este trabalho apresenta uma análise da Sonata para piano sobre tema de Bartók op.45 (2003) do compositor Marlos Nobre (1939) com o objetivo de identificar os elementos apropriados do primeiro movimento do Concerto para Orquestra (1943) do compositor húngaro Béla Bartók (1881-1945) e investigar como esses elementos são inseridos e metamorfoseados na linguagem de Nobre. Foram utilizados como referenciais teóricos os autores Straus (1990) e Hyde (1996) que estudam o fenômeno da intertextualidade na música. Este trabalho divide-se em duas etapas: a primeira consiste em uma revisão da literatura sobre a intertextualidade na música e sobre estilos e influências detectadas nos processos composicionais e a segunda, em uma análise formal, intertextual e comparativa entre a Sonata op. 45 de Nobre e o Concerto de Bartók. / This dissertation, while presenting an analysis of Sonata para piano sobre tema de Bartok op. 45 (2003) composed by Marlos Nobre (1939), aims at identifying elements appropriated from the first movement of Concerto for Orchestra (1943) composed by the Hungarian Bela Bartok (1881-1945). Based on works by Straus (1990) and Hyde (1996), phenomena identified as intertextuality in music establish the main focus of this text divided into two mains sections. The first section deals with a review of the literature geared to the study of intertextuality in music, as well as aspects of style and matters of influence within the compositional processes. The second section offers a formal, intertextual and comparative analysis of Nobre´s Sonata op. 45 in relation to Bartok´s Concerto for Orchestra.

A Sonata é composta por seis movimentos: Hora Lunga , Loop, Facsar, Prestissimo con sordino, Lamento e Chaccone chromatique. A obra destaca e valoriza a sonoridade da viola explorando todos os registros e muitas das possibilidades técnicas do instrumento. Com o objetivo de alcançar uma interpretação embasada no estilo do compositor, iniciamos a pesquisa com uma breve biografia, buscando informações que aproximem o intérprete de sua obra e seu pensamento musical. A seguir, o segundo capítulo contextualiza teoricamente cada movimento da sonata, preparando o caminho para as decisões adotadas na prática, descritas no terceiro capítulo, que tem o objetivo de auxiliar na resolução das demandas técnicas e interpretativas da obra. / Abstract: The Sonata for solo viola (1991-1994) by György Ligeti features the musical processes created by the composer in the period between 1950 and 1994. The work consists of six movements: Hora Lunga, Loop, Facsar, Prestissimo con sordino, Lamento and Chaccone chromatique. The piece features and values the sonority of the viola, by exploring its whole range and many of its technical possibilities. In order to achieve a performance based on the composer's style we begin this study with a short biography, highlighting information which will help the performer understand the composer's musical thinking and works. The second chapter outlines theoretically each movement of the sonata, paving the way for the subsequent technical strategies put into practice, and described in the third chapter, which has the purpose of helping to solve the work's technical and interpretative demands. / Mestrado / Praticas Interpretativas / Mestre em Música

Esta dissertação de mestrado trata do processo de transcrição para violão solo dos movimentos Tempo di Ciaccona e Fuga, da Sonata para violino solo (1944) de Béla Bartók. O primeiro capítulo contempla análises estruturais básicas dos movimentos Tempo di Ciaccona e Fuga, assim como o histórico da Sonata para violino solo e uma breve abordagem sobre a vida e obra musical de Bartók. Também é apresentado neste capítulo um apanhado das edições e transcrições da Sonata para violino solo, além de uma coleta de dados sobre transcrições para violão de outras obras de Bartók. O processo de transcrição é abordado no segundo capítulo por meio de comparações entre os recursos instrumentais específicos do violão e do violino, levando-se em conta também outros procedimentos usados em transcrições para violão solo de obras originalmente compostas para violino ou violoncelo solo por Johann Sebastian Bach. A transcrição para piano do próprio Bartók de alguns de seus Quarenta e quatro duos para dois violinos também foi tomada como processo análogo a ser observado em nossa transcrição. No terceiro e último capítulo desta dissertação encontra-se nossa edição da transcrição para violão solo de Tempo di Ciaccona e Fuga de Béla Bartók. / The present dissertation deals with the process of transcription for guitar of Tempo di Ciaccona and Fuga from the Sonata for solo violin (1944) by Béla Bartók. The first chapter introduces essential structural analysis of the movements of Tempo di Ciaccona and Fuga, as well as the historical background of the Sonata for solo violin, and a brief study of the life and musical work of Bartók. It also presents a review of the editions and transcriptions of the Sonata for solo violin, apart from a collection of data about guitar transcriptions of other works by Bartók. The transcription process is approached in the second chapter through comparisons with the violin and the guitar specific instrumental resources, taking in account also other procedures used in guitar transcriptions of works composed for cello or solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach. Bartóks own piano transcription of some of his Fourty-four Duos for two violins was also taken as an analogous process to be observed in our transcription. In the third and last chapter of this dissertation we present an edition of our transcription for solo guitar of Tempo di Ciaccona and Fuga by Bartók.

This study presents a detailed analytical examination of formal organization in Anton Bruckner’s early instrumental slow movements: from the String Quartet, WAB 111, to the Third Symphony, WAB 103. It proposes an analytical methodology and conception of the formative process of musical works that seeks to 1) reappraise the development and idiosyncrasies of his slow movements’ form, and 2) turn the textual multiplicity often associated with Bruckner’s large-scale works (a scholarly issue often referred to as the “Bruckner Problem”) into a Bruckner Potential. In addressing traditional and innovative formal aspects of Bruckner’s music, critics have tended to overemphasize one side or the other, consequentially portraying his handling of form as either whimsical or excessively schematic. By way of a reconstruction of Bruckner’s early experiments with slow-movement form (1862–1873), this study argues that influential lines of criticism in the reception history of Bruckner’s large-scale forms find little substantiation in the acoustical surface of Bruckner’s music and its dialogic engagement with mid- and late-19th-century generic expectations. Because the textual multiplicity often associated with Bruckner’s works does not sit comfortably with traditional notions of authenticity and authorship, Bruckner scholarship has operated under aesthetic premises that fail to acknowledge textual multiplicity as a basic trait of his oeuvre. The present study circumvents this shortcoming by conceiving formal-expressive meaning in Bruckner’s symphonies as growing out of a dual-dimensional dialogue comprising 1) an outward dialogue, characterized by the interplay between a given version of a Bruckner symphony and its implied genre (in this case, sonata form); and 2) an inward dialogue, characterized by the interplay among the various individualized realizations of a single Bruckner symphony. The analytical method is exemplified through a detailed consideration of each of the surviving realizations of the slow movement of Bruckner’s Third Symphony, WAB 103.

Clara Wieck Schumann’s 1836 Piano Concerto Op. 7 represents an era of radical formal experimentation in the early nineteenth century. As such, critics including Robert Schumann questioned its unity, thus prompting late twentieth-century scholars to reassess both its departures from tradition and its cohesive mechanisms. I propose that the concerto’s formal innovations are a result of Wieck’s decision to construct a tripartite work from her autonomous Concertsatz, which became the Finale after the addition of a first and second movement. This study uses William Caplin’s theory of formal functions and Steven Vande Moortele’s theory of two-dimensional sonata form to examine how Wieck complemented the independent Finale with a formally divergent first movement, which facilitates the projection of an overarching sonata form spanning the entire work. In doing so, this study produces a model to assess the concerto’s internal logic.

Composer William Bolcom (1938-) has shown a remarkable capacity for incorporating disparate materials and combining them to create original compositions, while often using traditional genres and forms. This style has earned Bolcom the reputation as a leading composer of American postmodernism. This study provides a brief sketch of Bolcom's development as a postmodern composer, his repertoire for violoncello and piano, and it examines his compositional style as applied in his Sonata for Violoncello and Piano (1989). In the Sonata Bolcom applies a wide variety of musical vocabulary from serious and popular traditions. He juxtaposes contrasting ideas to create and resolve rhythmic, melodic and harmonic tensions and amalgamates concepts of three centuries of music history into one new integral work. All these disparate elements with classical, romantic, impressionist, expressionist, modernist and popular connotations are molded together to form a serious piece of musi c with a sense of humor. The three contrasting movements of the Sonata share many common rhythmic, melodic and harmonic traits. The movements form a congruent work of Classical and Romantic spirit, often reminiscent of Brahms' music, despite the mixed use of traditional, popular, and modernist musical languages.

abstract: Pursuit of an informed approach to interpreting Frédéric Chopin’s music has been increasingly challenging in the twenty-first century. In the process of forming their unique voices, pianists turn to the sound recordings of some of the most notable pianistic figures in history. This document offers a detailed inspection of three revered recordings and, with the help of syntactic analysis, seeks an understanding of the extraordinary interpretational decisions of Alfred Cortot, Arthur Rubinstein and Dinu Lipatti. The examined works are Chopin’s Prelude in C Major, Op. 28, No. 1, and the Largo of the Sonata in B Minor, Op. 58. The analysis of the Prelude compares recorded performances of Alfred Cortot (ca. 1933-1934) and Arthur Rubinstein (ca. 1946) and explains how their vastly different interpretational choices can, through an analytical process, be traced to the harmonic and melodic implications of the score. Likewise, inspection of the Largo focuses on Dinu Lipatti’s performance (ca. 1947) and draws connections between his phrasing and critical characteristics of the movement. All three performances present exquisite examples of a style of expressive playing that seems to have fallen into disuse in the twenty-first century. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the performing style of Cortot, Rubinstein, and Lipatti, and also seeks to show connections between score analysis and interpretational decisions. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Music 2020

abstract: During the nineteenth century, it was common for pianists to publish their own editions of Beethoven’s piano sonatas. They did this to demonstrate their understanding of the pieces. Towards the end of the century, musicians focused their attention on critical editions in an effort to reproduce the composer’s original intention. Unfortunately, this caused interpretive editions such as those created in the nineteenth century to fade from attention. This research focuses on situating these interpretive editions within the greater discourse surrounding the editorial development of Beethoven’s piano sonatas. The study opens with the critical reception of Beethoven, his Sonata in C-sharp minor, Op. 27 No. 2, also known as the “Moonlight” Sonata, the organology of the nineteenth-century fortepianos and the editorial practices of subsequent editions of the piece. It also contextualizes the aesthetic and performance practice of nineteenth-century piano playing. I go on to analyze and demonstrate how the performance practices conveyed in the modern Henle edition (1976) differ from those in selected earlier interpretive editions. I will conclude with an assessment of the ways in which nineteenth-century performance practices were reflected by contemporary editions. This study compares the First edition (1802) and seven selected editions of Beethoven’s “Moonlight” Sonata by Ignaz Moscheles (1814), Carl Czerny (1846), Franz Liszt (1857), Louis Köhler (1869), Hugo Riemann (1885), Sigmund Lebert and Hans von Bülow (1896), and Carl Krebs (1898) with the Henle edition. It covers the tempo, rubato, articulations, phrasing, dynamics, fingerings, pedaling, ornamentation, note-stem and beaming, pitch, and rhythm. I evaluate these editorial changes and performance practice to determine that, compared to modern practice, the 19th century fostered a tendency of applying rubato, longer slurs, diverse articulations, and expanded dynamic range. Furthermore, the instructions of fingerings, pedaling and ornamentation became more detailed towards the end of the century. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Music 2020
