Rethinking form through transformation: analytical studies of Debussy's "Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune" and "Jeux".

應用於音樂的轉換理論,自大衛·盧因於1987年首先提出,至今已逾四分之一個世紀。在轉換理論中,盧因極具創見地將音樂的動態以數學中的群論及函數的概念表達,冀望以此改變過往音樂分析中過於注重對音樂素材及其特性的靜態研究,而忽視素材之間轉換過程的問題。盧因的研究對於西方理論學界產生了極大的影響。有關理論的深層探討,特別是在音樂與數學結合的方向顯示了驚人的成果。然而,就如何將轉換理論系統地應用於音樂分析,迄今最為成功的嘗試仍僅為盧因1993年成書的四首作品分析。對於轉換理論如何體現某個作曲家個人風格及其發展的研究,更是絶無僅見。本文將轉換理論應用於分析德彪西的兩首管弦樂傑作《牧神午後前奏曲》及芭蕾舞劇《遊戲》。雖然有關德彪西作品的分析者眾,但囿於理論途徑的限制,能充分展現在新舊風格轉換的歷史語境下,德彪西音樂獨特之處的研究仍極為有限。在本文中,轉換理論因其彈性的適用性,為兩首作品中的音高組合與曲式的關係,以及由此體現的風格衍變與美學思想,提供了獨特而極具說服力的分析視角。 / Theoretical development that stems from David Lewin’s transformational theory has flourished since its inception in 1987. However, the analytical application of Lewin’s theory remains scant, with Musical Form and Transformation: Four Analytical Essays (1993) standing out as one major achievement. Transformational theory is more often used to address specific theoretical issues, rather than to enhance our understanding of musical works or stylistic traits of individual composers. This study explores the applicability of Lewin’s transformation theory to two of Debussy’s orchestral masterworks, Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune and Jeux, and contributes to Debussy scholarship by offering readings that cast new light on the interrelationship between pitch organization and form in them. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Hong, Ding. / Thesis (Ph.D.) Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2014. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 181-191). / Abstracts also in Chinese.
