Système modal arabe levantin du XIVe au XVIIIe siècle : étude historique, systémique et sémiotique, éditions critiques et traductions des manuscrits / Modal System of Levantine Arabian Music from the 14th to the 18th century : a historical, systemic and semiotic study, critical editions and translations of manuscripts

El Didi, Amer 30 January 2015 (has links)
Loin de prétendre à l’exhaustivité, cette thèse présente un premier essai visant à une compréhension plus unifiée et plus globale du système modal arabe d’une période s’étalant sur cinq siècles environ. Un des enjeux de cette recherche est, pour reprendre les termes d’Amnon Shiloah, « de quitter, une fois pour toutes, la légende de léthargie » et d’enlever la qualification de «stagnation » et d’« âge des ténèbres » longtemps attachée à cette époque. Il s’est avéré à travers les pages de cette recherche, que le système modal n’a jamais perdu sa vitalité. Tout au contraire, les études historique, philologique, systémique et sémiotique menées au cours de cette thèse attestent de la présence d’un fil conducteur qui lie, d’un bout à l’autre, la tradition du XIIIe siècle à celle du XIXe siècle. / Far from being exhaustive, this thesis presents a first attempt to a more cohesive and comprehensive understanding of the Arab modal system of a period of time spanning about five centuries. One aim of this research is, following Amnon Shiloah, "to leave once and for all, the legend of lethargy" and remove the clause of "stagnation" and "dark ages" long attached to this epoch. It appears through the pages of this research that the modal system never lost its liveliness. On the contrary, historical, philological, systemic and semiotic studies conducted during this thesis show the presence of a thread that binds, from one end to the other, the tradition of the thirteenth century to that of the nineteenth century.

A Postcard from Cairo

Luis, Paul R. (Paul Reinaldo) 12 1900 (has links)
A Postcard from Cairo is a chamber work for three performers (flute/soprano saxophone, vibraphone/conga, and electric guitar) supported by stereo tape and two digital sequencers. The musical content is a montage of Arabian, Indian, Spanish, and Moroccan ethnic music, combined with avant-garde sounds. The score reflects a mixture of traditional and contemporary elements featuring extensive use of improvisation and repetition. Each player is required to coordinate his responses in a variety of ways. Cues are governed by an analog clock, and pulses are provided by the tape/sequencer background.
