Music for player piano : a study of seventeen selected examples

Bowdery, Francis T. January 1995 (has links)
From virtually the beginning of the twentieth century, musicians were sufficiently intrigued by the possibilities of the player piano to compose and specially arrange music for it. The aesthetic of 'automatic music' reaches back at least as far as JS Bach and forward to Conlon Nancarrow and Georgy Ligeti, as well as in developments in electronic popular and art music. This thesis makes a case study of seventeen compositions, arrangements and fragments from the period of the instrument's greatest commercial success, 1900-1927, including music by Bax, Busoni, Casella, Hans Haass, Hindemith and Stravinsky, and seeks to relate them to the broader range both of player piano compositions and music for other automatic musical instruments, as well as the stylistic developments of the time. A number of items are in score for the first time, and an attempt at a complete listing of the repertory for player piano is included.

Amoedo Portela, Alejo 07 January 2020 (has links)
[ES] El piano en la obra de Reveriano Soutullo Otero (1880 - 1932) Resumen: Reveriano Soutullo es reconocido como uno de los compositores importantes del primer tercio del siglo XX en el género lírico. Sin embargo, el repertorio donde incluye el piano pasó desapercibido; como consecuencia, nos planteamos realizar este trabajo con el objetivo de proporcionar a intérpretes y estudiosos, un documento de consulta del repertorio en el que este utiliza dicho instrumento, lo que se resume en obras para piano solo, música de cámara para sexteto con piano (compuesto por dos violines, viola, chelo, contrabajo y piano), para violín y piano y voz y piano. Incluimos en los anexos la revisión y edición en formato partitura de una selección representativa de obras, así como la grabación y edición en soporte CD, de una elección de ellas para piano solo. Este repertorio está enmarcado en lo que podemos denominar genéricamente «música de salón». Como resultado del trabajo de investigación desarrollado podemos conocer mejor a este compositor y aportar nuevos datos sobre su vida y obra. Por último, las obras catalogadas fueron un total de 85, distribuidas en: 63 para piano solo, 5 para sexteto con piano, 3 para violín y piano y 14 para voz y piano. Palabras clave: Reveriano Soutullo, piano, pianola, sexteto con piano, música de salón. / [CA] El piano en l'obra de Reveriano Soutullo Otero (1880 - 1932) Resum: Reveriano Soutullo és reconegut com un dels compositors importants del primer terç del segle XX en el gènere líric. Tanmateix, el repertori on inclou el piano va passar desapercebut i per això, ens plantegem realitzar aquest treball amb l'objectiu de proporcionar a intèrprets i estudiosos, un document de consulta del repertori on ell utilitza aquest instrument, el qual es resumeix en: obres per a piano sol, música de cambra per a sextet amb piano (compost per dos violins, viola, violoncel, contrabaix i piano), música per a violí i piano i música per a veu i piano. Incloem als annexos la revisió i edició en format partitura d'una selecció d'obres representativa, i també la gravació i edició en suport CD, d'una elecció d'elles per a piano. Aquest repertori està emmarcat en el que podem denominar genèricament «música de saló». Com a resultat del treball d'investigació desenvolupat podem conèixer millor aquest compositor i aportar noves dades sobre la seua vida i obra. Per últim, les obres catalogades foren un total de 85, distribuïdes en: 63 per a piano, 5 per sextet amb piano, 3 per a violí i piano i 14 per a veu i piano. Paraules clau: Reveriano Soutullo, piano, pianola, sextet amb piano, música de saló. / [EN] The piano in the work of Reveriano Soutullo (1880 - 1932) Abstract: Reveriano Soutullo is recognized as one of the important composers of the first third of the twentieth century in the lyrical genre. However, the repertoire where the piano is included went unnoticed; as a consequence, we set out to carry out this work with the aim of providing interpreters and scholars with a reference document of the repertoire in which the instrument is used, which is summarized in works for solo piano, chamber music for a piano sextet (composed of two violins, viola, cello, double bass and piano), for violin and piano and voice and piano. We include in the annexes the revision and edition in a score format of a representative selection of works, as well as the recording and edition in CD format, of a choice of them for solo piano. This repertoire is framed in what we can generically call «lounge music». As a result of the research work developed, we can get to know this composer better and provide new information about his life and work. Finally, the cataloged works were a total of 85, distributed in: 63 for solo piano, 5 for sextet with piano, 3 for violin and piano and 14 for voice and piano. Keywords: Reveriano Soutullo, piano, pianola, sextet with piano, lounge music. / Amoedo Portela, A. (2019). El piano en la obra de Reveriano Soutullo Otero (1880 - 1932) [Tesis doctoral].
