Oscillation

Labbe, Adolph L. 08 1900 (has links)
Oscillation for Prepared Electronic Tape and Symphony Orchestra is a multi-sectional one-movement composition with an aleatory section that has been partially serialized. The piece begins with a five-tone motif on tape which is developed by the orchestra as an introduction to Section I. The principal theme is developed by the strings and brought it to a climax. This climax is immediately interpolated by the five-tone motif slightly altered. At this point the thematic material is mutated and the orchestra goes through a harmonic texture change. The quartal harmonic treatment develops a cluster of tones that resolve into other clusters and the process is repeated to the accelerando of Section II.

Three Movements for Woodwind Quintet

Shurley, Robert D. (Robert Derwood) 08 1900 (has links)
Three Movements for Woodwind Quintet contains serial technique to a limited degree. The composition is not tonal but is in three distinct sections, the first of which is in ABA' form. The first movement is in a fast tempo with the exception of the second section, which is slightly slower. The meter is 2/4 throughout the entire first movement. The second movement is a slow movement and is in variation form. The third movement starts at a fast tempo and the meters alternate between 2/4, 3/4, 5/8 and others so as to change the stress in certain phrases.

Kersting, Fritz 08 1900 (has links)
Music for Katurah is scored for string quartet, flute, alto flute, soprano saxophone, bass clarinet, piano, and two percussion with total duration of approximately nineteen minutes. The work has three movements and uses spatial as well as standard notation. Each movement begins softly, builds gradually to a highpoint, and returns to the soft beginning. Timbral exploration and improvisation are prominent features in this piece. Also, through the use of spatial and standard notation, the piece combines strict rhythms and free rhythms.

Requiem

Hurst, Ronald Scranton January 1957 (has links)
The Requiem, for mixed chorus (4 and 8 parts), two brass quartets (2 trumpets, horn and trombone each), timpani (4) and organ, is divided into four sections or movements: I. Introit and Kyrie II. Sanctus III. Pie Jesu IV. "Take Thou Comfort". The principal feature of the Requiem is the cyclic treatment of the two main themes. These will be referred to as the "Introit" theme and the "Kyrie" theme, in that these are the sections in which they first appear, respectively.

String Quartet

Thomson, William, 1927- 06 1900 (has links)
The first movement is probably best catalogued as highly altered sonata-allegro in form. Exposition of the main thematic material is in the form of a fugue. The main thematic germ of this entire work may be found in the first three ascending fourths.

...for the time is at hand : An Original Musical Composition

Montalto, Richard Michael 12 1900 (has links)
...for the time is at hand : An Original Musical Composition, for orchestra and tape, is a single movement work in five overlapping sections with a total duration of approximately twenty minutes. Using a stochastic composition program written in Hewlett-Packard BASIC, the final chord of Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps serves as a "seed" to generate the "pitch density" (vertical pitch distribution), "timbre density"(vertical instrument distribution), and dynamics of the work.
