Within this context this paper presents an investigation of the technical and interpretative skills necessary to perform the Ciranda das sete notas (Fantasy for bassoon and string quintet) by Villa-Lobos. The musical elements articulation, sound production, embouchure, breathing and fingering are based on the concepts presented by Julius Weissenborn (1887), Ludwig Milde (1950) Fernand Oubradous (1988), Gallois (2009) and the physiologist Fox (2007). The discussions are grounded on the above concepts and personal experience of the author in preparation to perform the Ciranda. Some excerpts were selected which expose mastery of technical skills for interpretation. It was found that there is a wealth of skills demanded in this Brazilian work, which enables the development of music skills equal to traditional foreign repertoire for the bassoon. This research shows the lack of literature, especially in Portuguese, with deep approach to the technical and interpretative elements - articulation, sound, embouchure, breath and fingering - for the bassoon player. In addition, a bassoonist who wants to interpret this work should: have knowledge of the sound characteristics of different regions of the bassoon for decision-making purposes of interpretation; master the skills related to playing legato in large intervals; be able to play staccato and legato throughout the whole extension of the bassoon. During the recital preparation I also noted that the above skills are recurring features present on Villa-Lobos other compositions, which makes the discussions presented here useful for application in the interpretation of other works of the composer. / Heitor Villa-Lobos, em sua obra que inclui o fagote, traz novas e significativas perspectivas para o instrumentista. Neste trabalho, apresento uma investigação das habilidades técnico-interpretativas ao fagote para a performance da Ciranda das sete notas Fantasia para fagote e quinteto de cordas de Villa-Lobos, uma obra representativa de sua produção para esse instrumento. Fundamentam-se os elementos musicais articulação, sonoridade, embocadura, respiração e dedilhado nos conceitos apresentados por Julius Weissenborn (1887), Ludwig Milde (1950) de Fernand Oubradous (1988), Gallois (2009) e o fisiologista Fox (2007). As discussões apresentadas utilizam-se dos conceitos expostos acima e da preparação e performance da obra realizadas por este autor. Foram selecionados trechos da Ciranda que evidenciam domínio por parte do fagotista de técnicas específicas para a interpretação. Constatou-se que há uma riqueza de habilidades demandada nessa obra brasileira, que possibilita um desenvolvimento em igual potencial ao tradicional repertório estrangeiro. Há também a escassez de bibliografia, sobretudo em português, com profunda abordagem sobre os elementos técnico-interpretativos articulação, sonoridade, embocadura, respiração e dedilhado associados à performance ao fagote. Além disso, um fagotista que pretende interpretar a obra deverá ter: o conhecimento das características das diferentes regiões do fagote para a tomada de decisões com fins interpretativos, com habilidade sobre a ligadura em grandes intervalos e staccato e legato por toda a extensão sonora do fagote. Durante a preparação dos recitais, notou-se ainda que essas habilidades são características recorrentes presentes na parte de fagote das diversas formações e composições de Villa-Lobos, o que torna as discussões aqui apresentadas úteis para aplicação na interpretação de outras obras do compositor.

This is a compilation of the music performed at the graduation recital of John Estacio on April 11,1991, at 2.30 p.m. in the U.B.C. Recital Hall. There were four pieces performed that afternoon including Azimuth for viola, clarinet and marimba, written in 1989. Ode on the Death of A Favourite Cat, Drowned in a Tub of Goldfishes for S.A.T.B. choir was written in 1989 and uses the text of Thomas Gray. Moments is a set of three pieces for woodwind quintet written in 1990. Viola Concerto is in three movements and was written in 1991 for Reg Quiring, a former U.B.C. student. The concerto is scored for solo viola and chamber orchestra. A cassette copy of the recital is available with this book. / Arts, Faculty of / Music, School of / Graduate

Para introduzir e contextualizar a pesquisa, apresenta no Capítulo I levantamento biográfico da vida do compositor e do intérprete Noël Devos, a quem a peça foi dedicada, e considerações sobre o Fagote e a forma `Tema e Variações¿. O Capítulo II focaliza a obra. Inicialmente apresenta o contexto histórico da composição e da orquestração, e considerações sobre análise, interpretação e performance. Segue com a análise musical da obra através das técnicas desenvolvidas por Arnold Schoenberg, Wallace Berry e Joaquín Zamacois, e com o estudo interpretativo a partir da abordagem de Sonia Albano de Lima. Do estudo analítico-interpretativo são levantadas informações a respeito da linguagem utilizada na composição, relações recorrentes entre as Variações, bem como sobre a utilização de elementos específicos da técnica do fagote. De acordo com essa investigação analítica, estão indicadas sugestões sobre a execução da obra, apontando aspectos relevantes da interpretação. A conclusão reúne informações essenciais obtidas da análise efetuada, da entrevista realizada com o compositor e com o intérprete no Rio de Janeiro, e de suas orientações a respeito da execução da obra. Em anexo se encontram a partitura editada e revisada, a transcrição da entrevista e a gravação do DVD da obra, todas realizadas pelo autor desta pesquisa / Abstract: The main objective of the present research is to develop an analytical and interpretative study of Variations for Bassoon and Orchestra by Alceo Bocchino. For the sake of contextualization, presents in Chapter I biographical data of the composer and of the performer Noël Devos - whom the piece was dedicated -, aspects of the Bassoon and of the form 'Theme and Variations'. Chapter II focuses on the piece proper. Initially presents the composition and orchestration¿s historical context, followed by features of musical analysis, interpretation and performance. The Analysis of the piece is based on the techniques developed by Arnold Schoenberg, Wallace Berry and Joaquín Zamacois, and on the interpretative study of Sonia Albano Lima¿s approach. The aim of the analytical and interpretative study is to provide information about the compositional language, recurrent relations between the Variations, as well as to indicate the use of specific elements of the bassoon technique. According to this analytical research, there are suggestions concerning the performance of the piece, pointing to relevant aspects of interpretation. The conclusion gathers the most prominent information acquired from the overall Analysis of the work and from the complementary interview with the composer and the performer in Rio de Janeiro, and their guidelines regarding the performance of this piece as well. As appendixes, there are the edited and revised score, the interview¿s transcription and the DVD recording of the piece, all of them held by the author of this research / Mestrado / Praticas Interpretativas / Doutor em Música

"Eyre" is a composition of approximately sixteen minutes duration for an instrumental ensemble consisting of two flutes, oboe, B𝄭 clarinet, bassoon, guitar, and cello. It is inspired by a large seasonal lake basin in South Australia of the same name. The piece is divided into three movements; the first is fast and quasi sonata-allegro form without the recapitulation; the second is slow and through-composed; and the third, essentially the missing recapitulation from the first movement. Much of the motivic material for the piece is derived from the initial progression of triads. Harmonic and melodic development of this material contains some modal tendencies. While the overall effect tends toward equal weighting of the instrumental forces, there is some featuring of the guitar and an interplay between the woodwind and string instruments.

For woodwind and brass performers, intraoral pressure is the measure of force exerted on the surface area of the oral cavity by the air transmitted from the lungs. This pressure is the combined effect of the volume of air forced into the oral cavity by the breathing apparatus and the resistance of the embouchure, reed opening, and instrument’s back pressure. Recent research by Michael Adduci shows that intraoral pressures during oboe performance can exceed capabilities for corresponding increases in sound output, suggesting a potentially hazardous situation for the development of soft tissue disorders in the throat and velopharyngeal insufficiencies. However, considering that oboe back pressure is perhaps the highest among the woodwind instruments, this problem may or may not occur in other woodwinds. There has been no research of this type for the other woodwind instruments. My study was completed to expand the current research by comparing intraoral pressure (IOP) and sound pressure when performing with a characteristic tone on oboe, clarinet, flute, bassoon, and saxophone. The expected results should show that, as sound pressure levels increase, intraoral pressure will also increase. The subjects, undergraduate and graduate music majors at the University of North Texas, performed a series of musical tasks on bassoon, clarinet, flute, oboe, and alto saxophone. The musical tasks cover the standard ranges of each instrument, differences between vibrato and straight-tone, and a variety of musical dynamics. The data was collected and examined for trends. The specific aims of this study are to (1) determine whether there is a correlation between IOP and sound pressure, (2) shed light on how well each instrument responds to rapid fluctuation, and (3) determine which instruments are most efficient when converting air pressure into sound output. Results of this study raised concerns shared by previous studies – that woodwind players are potentially causing harm to their oropharynx by inaccurately perceiving intraoral pressure needed to achieve a characteristic sound. Evidence found by this study suggests that while oboists generate high intraoral pressure for relatively little sound output (a fact corroborated by past studies), the same cannot be said for all of the woodwind instruments, particularly the flute.

The discussion dealt with stylistic influences, compositional techniques, and performance considerations of chamber music involving clarinet composed by Bohuslav Martinu and included a performance of three of his works: Quartet. for clarinet, horn, cello, and side drum, Madrigals for oboe, clarinet, and bassoon, and Sextet for flute, oboe, clarinet, two bassoons, and piano. The selections performed and discussed in the lecture show compositional growth of the composer through the three periods of his life in which he composed chamber music which included winds. These three time periods are 1923-40 during his residency in Paris, 1941-56 during his residency in the United States, and 1957 until his death in 1959 when he returned permanently to Europe.
