Download or read book New Techniques in the Avant garde Repertoire for Solo Tuba written by David Randolph and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the decade of the 1960s, the solo repertoire for tuba has increased dramatically. The tubist now has available literature ranging from baroque transcriptions to compositions utilizing electronically produced sounds. Since a large segment of the avant-garde literature for tuba has been written for tuba alone, the writer has limited this study to only those compositions utilizing this medium. These compositions make use of many new sounds produced by a wide variety of techniques. They utilize techniques for changing the timbre of a definite pitch sound, techniques for playing more than one pitch simultaneously, and techniques involving indefinite pitches. In this study the writer has endeavored to examine these avant-garde techniques as they apply to nine selected compositions for solo tuba. The nine compositions are: Canto VII for Tuba Solo by Samuel Adler (Boosey and Hawkes, 1974), Six Likes for Solo Tuba by Theodor Antoniou (Barenreiter, 1968), Incon-Sequenza for One Tuba-Player by Matthias Bamert (G. Schirmer, 1973), Three for Barton for Solo Bass Tuba by Allan Blank (Associated Music Publishers, 1974), Patterns III for Solo Tuba by James Fulkerson (Media Press, 1969), Encounters II for Soto Tuba by William Kraft (MCA Music, 1970), Three Essays for Tuba by William Penn (Seesaw Music Corporation, 1973), Midnight Realities for Tuba Unaccompanied by Morgan Powell (Brass Music, Ltd., 1974), and Five Studies for Tuba Atone by David Reck (C.F. Peters Corporation, 196B). The decision to include these compositions was based on the fact that each involves a tubist as the only performer, each is published and readily available, and each involves avant-garde techniques to some degree. The avant-garde techniques included in these compositions have been examined from three perspectives:1. Notation--How does the composer indicate the new sounds he desires? Is it an effective, clear-cut symbol? 2. Method of produotion--How does the tubist produce the sound called for by the composer? 3. Context--How does the technique fit into the composition? It is the hope of the writer that this manuscript will be of value to three varying groups of individuals: 1. The tuba student who is just beginning his study of the avant-garde literature for tuba. 2. The tuba instructor who is not familiar with this segment of the repertoire. 3. The composer who intends to write for tuba in this style and who would like to know what is possible, what is difficult, what works well, and what has been done by other composers. Judgments of a subjective nature regarding the musical merits of the included compositions have been avoided. The criticisms offered have been limited to areas of clarity of notation or performance instructions and effectiveness of the new techniques. In several cases suggestions have been made as to how that effectiveness might be increased. It is the writer's opinion that, though they certainly are not of equal musical quality, each of the compositions included in this dissertation is at least worthy of study by the advanced student or professional tubist.
