Crystal Clear: A Performance Guide and Electronic Accompaniment of Mario Lavista's Marsias for Oboe and Crystal Glasses

Thompson, Jonathan (Oboist) 08 1900 (has links)
Mario Lavista (b. 1943) is a dominant figure in Mexican classical music. In the second half of the twentieth century, he promoted the use of contemporary techniques, leading to a series of collaborations with expert instrumentalists to explore extended techniques. Marsias for Oboe and Crystal Glasses is one of those pieces. Due to the nature of contemporary techniques, different oboes and reed styles produce different effects with the same fingerings. This document analyzes the contemporary fingerings in the two published editions of the work in consideration of the long-scrape reed style and oboes commonly used in the United States. The contemporary techniques were played on twelve professional oboe models as a way to collect data on how the printed fingerings work. The data is the foundation for the performance guide, which details every contemporary technique in the work. The performance guide also provides comprehensive information about the crystal glass logistics. The document also presents an electronic accompaniment created with Max/MSP in the event that the crystal glasses or crystal glass players are unavailable.

Embracing Internationalism: An Examination of Mario Lavista with an Analysis of Cinco Danzas Breves

Thiemann, Amy 05 1900 (has links)
Mario Lavista (b.1943) is widely acknowledged as one of Mexico's foremost living composers. Having acquired his music education in his native Mexico and in Europe alike, he is similar to numerous other Latin composers who were building a career in the latter half of the twentieth century. During this time, composers were relying on international aspects of avant-garde techniques, and using nationalistic Latin rhythms and melodies less. Lavista embraced internationalism, and aimed to compose works devoid of identifiable elements of nationalism. This document argues that the absence of nationalistic elements in Lavista's music has affected his notoriety outside of Mexico. The role of nationalism is assessed through a brief examination of influential Mexican composers and educators prior to 1950, followed by a discussion of education and composition in the latter half of the twentieth century. These aspects are investigated with regard to Lavista's education and resulting compositional style. A theoretical analysis of Cinco Danzas Breves para quinteto de alientos (1994) serves as a representative example of Lavista's compositional style and influence. This document aims to highlight and increase exposure of Mexican composers outside of Latin America who do not compose nationalistic music.

Repertorio para violonchelo de los compositores mexicanos Castro, Ponce, Carrillo, Chávez, Enríquez y Lavista: perspectiva interdisciplinar para su difusión

Lacruz Zorita, María Desamparados 30 December 2022 (has links)
[ES] El Catálogo de obras latinoamericanas para violonchelo de Germán Marcano (2004) incluye mil cuatrocientas cincuenta y tres entradas. México es el país latinoamericano que presenta el mayor número de obras y la más antigua tradición de composiciones para este instrumento, desde que Ricardo Castro escribiera el primer concierto latinoamericano para violonchelo y orquesta, alrededor de 1890. Ante la deficiente difusión de este legado, el objetivo de esta tesis es el de revelar la importancia histórica, la singularidad, heterogeneidad y el valor artístico del repertorio para violonchelo mexicano, mediante el análisis musicológico de una selección de obras representativas escritas por los compositores más significativos de cada generación, así como la observación de la evolución estética que estas describen, desde el postromanticismo de finales del siglo XIX hasta las vanguardias del siglo XX. La metodología interdisciplinar empleada abarca los campos de la escucha consciente, la reflexión tras la percepción, el estudio sociopolítico y cultural sobre México, el análisis musical adecuado a cada lenguaje, la interpretación de las obras y la valoración de cada obra para su interpretación en relación a sus características particulares y al lugar que ocupa en la obra del autor. En cada uno de los tres capítulos quedan contrastadas obras para violonchelo de dos compositores pertenecientes a un mismo momento sociopolítico. Las de Ricardo Castro (1864-1906) y Manuel M. Ponce (1882-1948) son pioneras de su género en Latinoamérica y representaciones distintas del proceso de búsqueda de la identidad mexicana. Julián Carrillo (1875 -1956) y Carlos Chávez (1899-1978) aportan dos visiones diferentes del camino que había de seguir la música mexicana a partir del momento histórico de la Revolución de 1910. Manuel Enríquez (1926-1994) y Mario Lavista (1943-2021) comparten el ideal cosmopolita de la vanguardia de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. La investigación realizada evidencia que las obras seleccionadas contribuyen significativamente al desarrollo del violonchelo como instrumento solista y que sus autores enriquecen los lenguajes musicales del siglo XX con individualidad e idiosincrasia. / [CAT] El Catàlec d'obres llatinoamericanes per a violonchelo de Germán Marcano (2004) inclou mil quatrecentes cincuenta y tres entrades. Mèxic és el país llatinoamericà que presenta el major número d'obres i la més antiga tradició de composicions per a este instrument, des de que Ricardo Castro escriguera el primer concert llatinoamericà per a violonchelo i orquesta, al voltant de 1890. Davant la deficient difusió d'este llegat, l'objectiu d'esta tesis és el de revelar l'importància històrica, la singularitat, heterogeneïtat i el valor artístic del repertori per a violonchelo mexicà, per mig de l'anàlisis musicològic d'una selecció d'obres representatives escrites pels compositors més significatius de cada generació, aixina com l'observació de l'evolució estètica que estes descriuen, des del postromanticisme de finals del sigle XIX fins a les vanguardes del sigle XX. La metodologia interdisciplinar empleada comprén els camps de l'escolta conscient, la reflexió despuix de la percepció, l'estudi sociopolític i cultural sobre Mèxic, l'anàlisis musical adequat a cada llenguage, l'interpretació de les obres i la valoració de cada obra per a la seua interpretació en relació a les seues característiques particulars i al lloc que ocupa en l'obra de l'autor. En cada u dels tres capítuls queden contrastades obres per a violonchelo de dos compositors pertanyents a un mateix moment sociopolític. Les de Ricardo Castro (1864-1906) i Manuel M. Ponce (1882-1948) són pioneres del seu gènero en Llatinoamèrica i representacions distintes del procés de busca de l'identitat mexicana. Julián Carrillo (1875 -1956) i Carlos Chávez (1899-1978) aporten dos visions diferents del camí que havia de seguir la música mexicana a partir del moment històric de la Revolució de 1910. Manuel Enríquez (1926-1994) i Mario Lavista (1943-2021) compartixen l'ideal cosmopolita de la vanguarda de la segona mitat del sigle XX. L'investigació realisada evidència que les obres seleccionades contribuïxen significativament al desenroll del violonchelo com a instrument soliste i que els seus autors enriquixen els llenguages musicals del sigle XX en individualitat i idiosincràsia. / [EN] The Catalog of Latin American Works for Cello by Germán Marcano (2004) includes one thousand four hundred and fifty-three entries. Mexico is the Latin American country that presents the largest number of works and the oldest tradition of compositions for this instrument, since the first Latin American concerto for cello and orchestra was written by Ricardo Castro, around 1890. Given the poor dissemination of this legacy, the objective of this thesis is to reveal the historical importance, singularity, heterogeneity and artistic value of the Mexican cello repertoire, through the musicological analysis of a selection of representative works written by the most significant composers of each generation, as well as the observation of the aesthetic evolution that they describe, from the post-romanticism at the end of the 19th century to the avant-garde of the 20th century. The interdisciplinary methodology used covers the fields of conscious listening, thought after perception, sociopolitical and cultural study of Mexico, musical analysis appropriate to each language, interpretation of works and assessment for the performance of each work in relation to its particular characteristic and the place it occupies in the author's work. In each of the three chapters, we contrast works for cello by two composers belonging to the same sociopolitical moment. Those of Ricardo Castro (1864-1906) and Manuel M. Ponce (1882-1948) are pioneers of their genre in Latin America and different representations of the search process for Mexican identity. Julián Carrillo (1875 -1956) and Carlos Chávez (1899-1978) provide two different visions of the path that Mexican music had to follow from the historical moment of the 1910 Revolution. Manuel Enríquez (1926-1994) and Mario Lavista (1943-2021) share the cosmopolitan ideal of the avant-garde of the second half of the 20th century. The research carried out shows that the selected works contribute significantly to the development of the cello as a solo instrument and that their authors enrich the musical languages of the 20th century with individuality and idiosyncrasy. / Lacruz Zorita, MD.
