abstract: This document is comprised of an arrangement and recording of Giuseppe Tartini’s “Devil’s Trill” Sonata for solo violin, and includes historical background, an exploration of Italian ornamentation, and a structural analysis. The original work was written for violin and basso continuo. The author was inspired to create this arrangement for solo violin based on accounts that Tartini liked to perform this work unaccompanied. The first three chapters focus on events from Tartini’s early life that influenced his compositional style. Chapters four and five provide an overview of Italian ornamentation, and explore five documents that were used to support decisions in creating the arrangement: Giovanni Luca Conforto’s The Joy of Ornamentation; Giuseppe Tartini’s Traité des Agréments de la Musique; Letter to Signora Maddalena Lombardini; Regole; and L’Arte dell Arco. Chapter six provides a structural analysis of the Sonata. The appendices illustrate the process of creating the arrangement. The arrangement takes into consideration the composite of the original solo and basso continuo parts. In addition, a set of realized ornaments is provided on an ossia staff. The recording includes both the primary arrangement, presented in each initial section, as well as the realized ornaments, presented in each repeated section. / Dissertation/Thesis / Tartini "Devil's Trill" Sonata: Movement I / Tartini "Devil's Trill" Sonata: Movement III / Tartini "Devil's Trill" Sonata: Movement II / Doctoral Dissertation Music 2019

I denna studie undersöks hur arrangering och komponering av flöjtmusik med interferenstoner kan gå till. Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka skapandeprocessen. I studien beskrivs vad interferenstoner är och hur de fungerar på tvärflöjt. Under studien skapades tre arrangemang och åtta kompositioner som är skrivna antingen för två flöjtister som spelar tillsammans eller för en sjungande flöjtist. Studien identifierar olika resurser som har använts under arrangerings-, och komponeringsprocessen och förklarar även hur de användes. I studien beskrivs också hur arrangemangen och kompositionerna har designats för att interferenstonerna ska uppmärksam- mas. / This study investigates the process of arranging and composing music with difference notes for flute. The purpose of the study was to investigate the creative process. The study also describes what a difference note is and how it works on a flute. During the study three arrangements and eight compositions were created and the pieces are either for two flutists playing together or for one singing flutist. The study identifies different resources that are being used during the arranging and composing process and explains how they are being used. The study further describes how the arrangements and compositions have been designed so that the difference notes will be audible.

Giuseppe Tartini is one of the most important personalities in the history of violin playing and literature. His rich heritage has contributed to the development of both, and his influence has crossed afar the Italian borders. This diploma thesis brings a complex view into the life and creation of this 18th century violin virtuoso. His composing activity uprose from his master violin skills, and therefore he composed especially for this instrument. Tartini transmitted his knowledge to the students of paduan School of nations, which he himself had founded. His treatise on ornaments Traité des agréments, compiled of the practical comments on the ornament interpretation, is of great significance. No small attention deserves also his letter to the pupil Maddalena Lombardini. As a matter of fact, it is a violin lesson in a letter form, and the value of the letter is by no means just historical. Another area of Tartini's interest was music theory, in which he invented so called difference tones. His contribution to the development of violin bow is also praiseworthy; he made several adaptations which brought the bow nearer to its current shape.
