A history of the Venetian sacred solo motet (c. 1610--1720).Rushing-Raynes, Laura. January 1991 (has links)
In 17th century Italy, the trend toward small sacred concertato forms precipitated the publication of a number of volumes devoted exclusively to sacred solo vocal music. Several of these, including the Ghirlanda sacra (Gardano, 1625) and Motetti a voce sola (Gardano, 1645) contain sacred solo motets by some of the best Italian composers of the period. Venetian composers were at the forefront of the move toward the smaller concertato forms and, to fulfill various needs of church musicians, wrote in an increasingly virtuoso style intended to highlight the solo voice. This study traces the development of the solo motet in the sacred works of Venetian composers from the time of Monteverdi to Vivaldi. It revolves around sacred solo motets composed at Saint Marks and the Venetian ospedali (orphanages). It includes works of Alessandro Grandi, Claudio Monteverdi, Francesco Cavalli, and Antonio Vivaldi. It also deals with solo motets of lesser composers whose works are available in modern critical and performing editions or in recently published facsimiles. In addition to providing a more detailed survey of the genre than has been previously available, this study provides an overview of highly performable (but largely neglected) repertoire.

Musical Theatre in Secondary Education: Teacher Preparation, Responsibilities, and AttitudesJanuary 2010 (has links)
abstract: Since the 1920's, the school musical has been an important event in American high schools and in the lives of students. This study begins with a condensed history of the American musical theatre, into focus on selected shows' value as potential high school repertoire. Review of literature included studies of high school musical theatre, production guides and related materials, and writings both against and in favor of musicals at the high school level. The school musical is usually undertaken as an extra-curricular activity led by performing arts faculty. This study focuses on the preparation, responsibilities, and attitudes of high school music educators toward musical theatre direction. Musical direction is defined as teaching the vocal music, and teaching and leading the instrumental music of the production where applicable. A researcher-designed survey was distributed to Arizona music educators in schools that included grade 12. The response rate was 71%. Questions included items designed to assess the pervasiveness of musical theatre productions, the roles and responsibilities of music educators, and their preparation for those roles. Additional Likert-type questions comprised an inventory measuring attitudes toward musical theatre productions. Results of the survey showed that musicals are produced in 80% of Arizona high schools, and music faculty are expected to lead at least the musical aspects of these productions. Although 62% report that they learned about teaching musical theatre on the job, and that they received no other preparation, 70% report a large amount of personal enjoyment and fulfillment from their work in musical theatre. The mean attitude score for positive feelings about work in musical theatre was found to be significantly higher for choral teachers than instrumental teachers. The primary implications of the study are the need for better preparation and in-service opportunities for music educators in musical theatre pedagogy. / Dissertation/Thesis / D.M.A. Music Education 2010

A partir do levantamento por amostragem de registros fonográficos brasileiros realizados entre 1957 e 2005, organizado em discografia e listas, localizamos e comparamos por meio de fichas obras que foram gravadas mais de uma vez por diferentes intérpretes e em épocas distintas. Essa comparação nos revelou uma diversidade de soluções de ordem prática e interpretativa que tem sido adotada por músicos brasileiros para a execução de um repertório que durante décadas foi considerado desconhecido. A escassez de referências histórico-musicais, indispensáveis para uma melhor compreensão da música setecentista e oitocentista, dificulta a prática interpretativa desse repertório e uma tradição musical que se perdeu ao longo do tempo faz com que não exista consenso entre as diferentes gravações de uma mesma obra. Este trabalho conclui que não existe uma escola de interpretação da música praticada no Brasil entre 1730 e 1850, e que nos últimos 50 anos, por opção ou desconhecimento, cada músico tem adotado soluções particulares de acordo com sua realidade musical disponível. / This study has as its objective the mapping out of a panorama of interpretative practice linked to the vocal repertoire, which existed in Brazil between 1730 and 1850, as it relates to the aesthetic and functional changes that this music has undergone since its first performances in the 1950's. From the survey carried out with Brazilian recordings done between 1957 and 2005, which have been organized in the discography and repertoire lists, we located and compared those that have been recorded more than once, by different interpreters and at distinct periods of time. This comparison disclosed a variety of solutions, both practical and performatic, which were adopted by Brazilian musicians to perform this repertoire, considered unknown for decades. The scarcity of historic and musical references, as indispensable as they are for the best understanding of the music of the 18th and 19th centuries, makes the interpretative practice of this repertoire more difficult, added to the loss of the musical tradition through time. For these reasons, there does not exist a consensus between the different recordings of the same piece. We conclude that a specific school of musical practice in Brazil between 1730 and 1850 does not exist and that in the last fifty years, as a result of their own option or out of ignorance, each musician or musical group has adopted his own particular solutions in accordance with the musical reality available.

Vocal music of the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) : insights into processes of affect and meaning in musicGray, Anne-Marie 06 October 2004 (has links)
The focus of this study was to locate the lacuna that exists between cultural history and musicology, in order to assess processes of affect and meaning in vocal music as a vehicle for understanding the South African Boer psyche and circumstances during the war. The pursuit of locating the lacuna was best served by employing qualitative research methods that reflect the phenomenological paradigm. This allowed for an in-depth understanding of the Boers in terms of their own interpretations of reality, as well as the understanding of society in terms of the meanings that people ascribe to the societal practices in that society. A cultural-historical approach was necessary in order to highlight the experiential world of the Boers and gain some insider perspectives of the war. This approach did not, however, have much to say about the role of Boer vocal music in generating and articulating social and cultural meanings. On the other hand, the musicological approach which was based on research grounded in an examination of hand-notated musical scores, drew little attention to the role of music’s meanings in the social, historical and cultural circumstances of the Boer people during the war. After the historical context, which generated the vocal music was understood; the researcher was able to identify the lacuna as an aural void, due to the fact that affect and meaning cannot be grounded exclusively in an examination of cultural history or musical symbols decontextualised from sound. The background information allowed for the lyrics to be interpreted in melodic configurations, which were equated with particular moods, emotions and cultural meanings. This thesis thus responded to and succeeded in assessing insight and understanding into the psyche and circumstances of white South Africans during the Anglo Boer War. The thesis concluded by proving that by highlighting the aural void it was possible to move cultural history towards an accommodation with musicology. Through Boer vocal music it was thus possible to critically shape understanding of the experiential world of the Boer during the Anglo-Boer War. / Thesis (DMus)--University of Pretoria, 2005. / Music / unrestricted

A style discussion of Kahlolo, Let_at_i, and Vocalise Africa by Alexander Frederick JohnsonIbiayo, Oluwakayode Samson January 2019 (has links)
South African composer, Alexander Johnson is a prolific and outstanding figure among
his contemporaries. His numerous works and contributions to South African classical
and indigenous music is worthy of mention. Over the years, he has been recognised both
locally and internationally for his contributions by receiving numerous awards, honorary
positions, as well as commissions. His works have been performed both locally and
internationally. Johnson’s compositional style mostly features diverse musical elements
and devices from the post-tonal era. He also utilises special and unique compositional
techniques in his works which give him a ‘signature.’
This study discusses and disseminates brief information on Johnson’s biography, as well
as a catalogue of the composer’s published works.
Most importantly, the three works in this study namely Kahlolo, Let_at_i, and Vocalise
Africa feature Johnson’s unique interpretation of South African music in the twenty-first
century. This study focuses on exploring the background of the three chosen works, and
the inspiration behind the creation of these works. Furthermore, the compositional
techniques employed by the composer, as well as the distinguishing features of his
compositional style are also discussed.
This study additionally aims to trace and disseminate similarities between the three
respective works as well as analyse the three selected pieces with regard to mostly
harmonic devices and techniques, melody, rhythm, form structure, texture, and
registration for organ music. Each piece is comprehensively discussed separately, with
emphasis on the above topics.
Further research in the future could entail a study on style discussion of Johnson’s more
recent compositions in other genres and instrumentation. / Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2019. / Music / MMus / Unrestricted
