Creating Musical Momentum: Textural and Timbral Sculpting with Intuitive Compositional Systems and Formal DesignRobin, Brad 08 1900 (has links)
This dissertation explores the analysis and creation of compositions from the standpoint of texture and momentum. It is comprised of four chapters. The first presents a number of concepts as tools for analysis, including textural typography and transformation, perception of time and psychological engagement of an audience, and respiration as a metaphor for musical momentum. The second and third chapters apply these tools to Gerard Grisey's "Periodes" and "Partiels," and Brian Ferneyhough's "Lemma-Icon-Epigram." The fourth explores specific methodologies used in composing my dissertation piece, "Phase," including the application of number systems ranging from formal to local levels.

A Set of Compositions Inspired by Selected Performance Practices and Notational Systems of Anthony Braxton (b. 1945)Van Leeuwen, Christopher M. 05 1900 (has links)
Multi-instrumentalist, composer, and music philosopher Anthony Braxton (b. 1945) has developed performance practices and notational systems that are frequently disregarded by scholars of music, despite his prolific output and influence. His restructuralist aesthetic blurs the boundaries between philosophy, visual art, and numerous musical genres and stylistic practices to create an amalgam that is often difficult to categorize due to his perpetual quest to avoid confining definitions. The purpose of this dissertation is to draw attention to various facets of Anthony Braxton's notational and performance practices by using them as a springboard for personal creativity. Inspiration for these original works was drawn from a variety of Braxton's methods, particularly from his quartet music of the 1980s and his Ghost Trance Music, and drew heavily from his concepts of "moment time" and "individual presence," which are key themes arising throughout his music and the literature. Specific compositional techniques were either used verbatim or as inspiration for the development of original practices and are accompanied by an analysis and discussion.

Beckett, Barthelme, and Vonnegut : finding hope in meaninglessnessBritten, Alex M. 16 April 2012 (has links)
This thesis is a study of the shifting philosophical trends in the works of Samuel Beckett, Donald Barthelme, and Kurt Vonnegut as representations of a greater shift from modernism to postmodernism. I have chosen to explore Beckett's plays Waiting for Godot and Krapp's Last Tape, Barthelme's short stories "Nothing: A Preliminary Account," "The New Music," and "Kierkegaard Unfair to Schlegal," and Vonnegut's book Timequake to see how each author seeks to find a new hope in the face of a collapsed causal system. This work is an examination of the form and content of each author's work as it pertains to their own philosophical standing and in relation to the other two authors' works. I argue that each author finds a different hope for humanity depending on their place among the philosophical trends during their time. / Graduation date: 2012
