Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1980s, there was a significant increase in compositions for violin and percussion. This expansion of the repertoire is largely attributed to groups like Marimolin, who regularly commission and premiere works for the medium. However, a thorough examination of these works has not yet been completed. The most common instrumentation is violin and marimba, however, composers have begun to include additional percussion instruments. This document will bring focus to compositions utilizing percussion instruments beyond the marimba alone. Each chapter will examine a different work for violin and percussion: Somewhere in Maine, Shadower, Six Questions, A River, Rose, A Wasp in the Mango, 77, and Sensations of Metals. The selected works include percussive sounds beyond the marimba, span over multiple decades, represent different compositional styles, and utilize different percussion instruments. Each chapter will contain background information, a brief analysis, compositional techniques, instrument selection, setup options, balance issues between instruments, performance considerations, and rehearsal approaches. The goal for this document is to demonstrate best practices for performing each of the selected works. It will also be useful to composers, demonstrating the most efficient techniques when composing violin and percussion duets.

Download or read book The Modern Percussion Revolution written by Kevin Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than eighty years have passed since Edgard Varèse’s catalytic work for percussion ensemble, Ionisation, was heard in its New York premiere. A flurry of pieces for this new medium dawned soon after, challenging the established truths and preferences of the European musical tradition while setting the stage for percussion to become one of the most significant musical advances of the twentieth century. This 'revolution', as John Cage termed it, was a quintessentially modernist movement - an exploration of previously undiscovered sounds, forms, textures, and styles. However, as percussion music has progressed and become woven into the fabric of Western musical culture, several divergent paths, comprised of various traditions and a multiplicity of aesthetic sensibilities, have since emerged for the percussionist to pursue. This edited collection highlights the progressive developments that continue to investigate uncharted musical grounds. Using historical studies, philosophical insights, analyses of performance practice, and anecdotal reflections authored by some of today's most engaged performers, composers, and scholars, this book aims to illuminate the unique destinations found in the artistic journey of the modern percussionist.
