Who is Paule Maurice?: her relative anonymity and its consequences

Unknown Date (has links)
Paule Maurice (1910-1967) is the little known composer of Tableaux de Provence: Suite for Saxophone and Orchestra, one of the most frequently recorded and studied classical saxophone compositions in history. A more in depth study of Paule Maurice reveals a talented composer and dedicated professor whose career at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris and l'Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris spanned over twenty-five years until her untimely death at age fifty-seven. Maurice composed for theatre, ballet, French National Radio, orchestra, voice, piano, flute, clarinet, and saxophone. There is question as to the whereabouts of many of her manuscripts. This thesis attempts to bring to bear the life and accomplishments of a talented French composer not well remembered in music history. / by Anthony Jon Moore. / Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2009. / Includes bibliography. / Electronic reproduction.

No. of bitstreams: 1 grace_santos_agra_vasconcelos.pdf: 546220 bytes, checksum: b307ed74b7a9bcd4a1dc18db66d65ba6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014-12-01 / Chico Buarque s songs became objects of study in academy because they explain the political context of the time. Therewith, the composer s songs began to be exploited, also, in Discourse Analysis studies field. In this perspective, the present work expounds the analysis of song composed during the period of military coup in Brazil, having as theoretical ground, French Discourse Analysis, founded by Michel Pêcheux, in 1969, in France and developed in Brazil by Eni Orlandi and her followers. This work has as main purpose analyze both political and poetic discourse of the songs that Chico Buarque sings as in the place of women, composed during the Brazilian military government. Specifically, we intend to investigate the discursive formations and ideological of women in a song by Chico Buarque, besides identifying the interspeech of/about the woman in the song's composer. At the same time, we aim to understand the discursive psychology present in the discourse of/about women, but also highlight the position of subject-woman in songs by Chico Buarque. This research makes an analysis of the discourse of/about women in composer s music, considering the discourse of resistance to the military coup approached by Chico Buarque. The aim is, thus, to understand the meaning effects of this discourse through the unsaid existent in this silence discourse. For this purpose, five songs were selected for analysis, composed between the years 1964 to 1979, take into consideration the conditions of discourse production, based on the theories and analytical procedures of DA. From this viewpoint, it is observed that the announcer express the place of women, occupying different positions, from the submissive woman to the forefront one, all immersed in the ideology of a society that lived oppressed by the military dictatorship. In the selected corpus discursive analysis, the subject-woman discursive formations slide from the submission to independence. The conditions of production are the dictatorship, which silencing was broken in the arts and the works metaphorical effect said what the military subject could not hear. In the censorship and the resistance, the women in Chico Buarque showed the rupture strength of a say. The discursive analysis fortify the social mores of an initial era, where the patriarchalism was present more strongly, in contrast to other, a marked feminism. The study was concluded, evidencing Chico Buarque s poetic/political discourse, which the female subject is approached in the compositions, marked by discursive/ideological formations politics, social and cultural representatives of the military dictatorship. / As canções de Chico Buarque tornaram-se objetos de estudo no meio acadêmico por explanarem o contexto político de uma época. Com isso, as canções do compositor passaram a ser exploradas, também, no campo dos estudos da Análise do Discurso. Nessa perspectiva, o presente trabalho expõe as análises de canções compostas durante o período do Golpe Militar no Brasil, tendo como base teórica a Análise do Discurso de Linha Francesa (AD), fundada por Michel Pêcheux, em 1969, na França e desenvolvida no Brasil por Eni Orlandi e seguidores. Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal analisar o discurso tanto político quanto poético das canções em que Chico Buarque canta do lugar da mulher, compostas durante o Regime Militar Brasileiro. De modo específico, pretende-se investigar as formações discursivas e ideológicas das mulheres na canção de Chico Buarque, além de identificar o interdiscurso da/sobre a mulher na canção do compositor. Ao mesmo tempo, visa-se a compreender a memória discursiva presente no discurso da/sobre a mulher, como também destacar a posição sujeito-mulher nas músicas de Chico Buarque. Essa pesquisa faz uma análise do discurso da/sobre a mulher na música do compositor, considerando o discurso de resistência ao Golpe Militar abordado por Chico Buarque. Busca-se, assim, compreender os efeitos de sentido desse discurso por meio do não-dito presente no silêncio do discurso. Para tanto, foram selecionadas cinco canções para análises, compostas entre os anos de 1964 a 1979, levando-se em consideração as condições de produção do discurso, tendo como base a teoria e procedimentos analíticos da AD. A partir desta ótica, observa-se que o locutor enuncia do lugar da mulher, ocupando diferentes posições, da submissa à mulher de vanguarda, todas imersas na ideologia de uma sociedade que vivia oprimida pela ditadura militar. Na análise discursiva do corpus selecionado, as formações discursivas do sujeito-mulher deslizam da submissão à independência. As condições de produção são a ditadura, em que o silenciamento era rompido nas artes e o efeito metafórico das obras dizia o que o sujeito militar não podia escutar. Na censura e na resistência, as mulheres de/em Chico mostravam a ruptura da força de um dizer. A análise discursiva corrobora os costumes sociais de uma época inicial, em que o patriarcalismo fazia-se presente mais fortemente, em contraposição a outra, de um feminismo marcado. Conclui-se o estudo, evidenciando-se o discurso poético/político de Chico Buarque, em que é abordado o sujeito feminino das composições, marcado por formações discursivas/ideológicas políticas, sociais e culturais representantes da ditadura militar.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Elizabeth Rizzi Lyra.pdf: 2052746 bytes, checksum: 8383184eedebe141b1581ed70266daa7 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-09-19 / This work is part of the research line “Reading, Writting and Portuguese Language Teaching”, from the Postgraduate Program in Portuguese Language of the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo. It has as general objective, the constitution of the female ethos in songs written by women composers, as well as the reading, from the rhetorical perspective of those songs in the learning environment of a regular school. Therefore, we have analyzed the female participation in the music history and the application of musical genre in the formation of youth education since the Old Greece back to current days. Based on the theoretical concepts, we analyze the songs Resposta (1958) from Maysa, Essa mulher (1978) composed by Joyce feat Ana Terra and Pagu (2000) from Rita Lee, so we could analyze which rhetorical appeals are applied in the constitution of the ethos of the woman. We highlighted through this analysis, the related aspects to the ethos (the composer’s credibility) and the logos (arguments and figures), just as the pathetic effects awakened in the audience by those songs. The ethos of the resistance and the manifestation of the passion for so long repressed, strongly uncovers in the songs. Regarding the reading in class, we can assure that the songs become rich sources in the formation of competent readers / Esta tese, inserida na linha de pesquisa Leitura, Escrita e Ensino de Língua Portuguesa, do Programa de Estudos Pós-Graduados em Língua Portuguesa da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo, tem como tema o estudo da constituição do ethos feminino em músicas compostas por oradores do sexo feminino, bem como a leitura, sob a perspectiva da retórica, dessas músicas em sala de aula. Para que isso fosse possível, fizemos um breve percurso histórico sobre a participação da mulher na música, e da utilização do gênero canção na formação educacional dos jovens desde a Grécia Antiga até os dias atuais. Amparados pelos conceitos retóricos, analisamos as canções Resposta (1958) de Maysa, Essa mulher (1978) composta por Joyce em parceria com Ana Terra, e Pagu (2000) de Rita Lee para assim investigar quais recursos retóricos são utilizados na constituição do ethos da mulher. Evidenciamos, ao longo de nossa análise, aspectos relativos ao ethos (credibilidade do orador) e ao logos (argumentos e figuras), bem como os efeitos patéticos despertados no auditório por essas canções. O ethos da resistência e de manifestação de paixões há tanto reprimidas se descortinou potentemente nas canções. Com relação à leitura em sala de aula, podemos afirmar que as canções tornam-se fontes riquíssimas na formação de leitores competentes

Sara Wennerberg-Reuter : att vara kvinna och kompositör kring sekelskiftet 1800 / 1900 / Sara Wennerberg-Reuter : being a woman and composer during the late 19th and early 20th centuries

Agnevik, Maja January 2013 (has links)
This essay presents an example of the musical life of a female composer active in Sweden during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Through a case study on composer Sara Wennerberg-Reuter (1875-1959), the essay contributes information to her biography, which had been lacking specific details. Wennerberg-Reuter's biography has been discussed regarding traditional roles of women in music, her relationship to her own artistry and other active women composers, and finally the contemporary reception of Wennerberg-Reuter as a legitimate composer. Aesthetical theories prevalent during Wennerberg-Reuter’s life has been applied in these discussions, such as those presented by Citron, Öhrström and Hanson, combined with Citron's additional theories considering masculine/feminine elements in the musical approach. The main conclusions reached regarding the specific conditions enabling a professional status as a composer and woman in Sweden during the given time are; a) the liberal permission by the family to pursue higher education in composing, since this was in opposition to the traditions of the time. b) the access to a network of musically active women, from which a sense of being part of a female community can be created. c) the acceptance from musical institutions such as higher educations, composer's societies and media critics.

Women in Music: Letting a Long Story Be Long Contemplating Women’s Sonic, Musical, and Spiritual Experiences in Prehistory

Saidel, Deborah J 01 January 2018 (has links)
Situated within deep history, this study explores the auditory and spiritual lives of Paleolithic women. It considers their personal agency in mediating the spiritual power of sound and how doing so contributes to a multifaceted musicality. The theoretical framework involves a wide spectrum of topics, from ways of rethinking the writing of history and reckoning with time, to sound studies and the study of acoustics in ancient sites, to a critical examination through a feminist lens of normative disciplinary scholarship in anthropology and archaeology, religious studies, and musicology. I explore potential audio-visual-lithic relationships for their implications for deepening an understanding of the spiritual aspects of Paleolithic life. Drawing from this interdisciplinary literature, integrative discussions are constructed which when considered collectively, not only provide different types of role models and different criteria pertaining to women's experiences of music-making, but also facilitate the emergence of a more nuanced understanding of Paleolithic spiritual practices. In this women-centric narrative innumerable generations of women's participation as spiritual healers within the shamanic musical paradigm are acknowledged and valued, broadening the parameters of women's cultural heritage and spiritual experience. This expansion can help women today turn away from a compensatory music history perspective that is oriented toward figuring out how to fit into a prescribed androcentric narrative of Western art music and turn towards a more holistic narrative in which women can better consider their lineage(s) on their own terms. It fosters re-conceptualizations of women's musical and spiritual identities by reorienting the timeline, contexts, and definition of women's experiences of music-making as sound-producers and sound-interpreters. This project is intended to provide one possible starting point for new conversations about women in music regardless of one's positionality. From a more inclusive gynocentric vantage point, the toxic self-perpetuating loop which has affected how musicology has thus far been shaped, namely through the undervaluing of women’s musical experiences and the ways that they think and feel about music, is being contested. Ultimately, it is a matter of ownership.
