Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ein neuer methodischer Zugriff charakterisiert Angelo Cantonis mehr als 40 Jahre nach Stravinskijs Tod entstandene Schrift The Language of Stravinsky. Darin geht es sowohl um die einzelnen Werke als auch um die Entwicklung von Stravinskijs Tonsprache während der gesamten Schaffenszeit. Hauptziele der Arbeit sind die Gesamtanalyse von Kompositionen sowie der Nachweis einer die verschiedenen Schaffensphasen, die Stilvielfalt, die wechselnden Besetzungen und den Wandel musiktheatralischer Gattungen übergreifenden Kohärenz seiner Musik. Obwohl Stravinskijs Werk oftmals in drei verschiedene Stilperioden – die russische, die neoklassizistische und die serielle – untergliedert wird, zeichnet es sich durch gemeinsame Konstruktionsprinzipien einer ureigenen Tonsprache aus. Die Analysen legen deren grundlegende Elemente und ihre Grammatik offen. Jedes der acht Kapitel des Buches ist auf einen Aspekt der Tonsprache Stravinskijs fokussiert, jeweils in der Abfolge der Chronologie der Werke. Aus diesem Grund werden dieselben Kompositionen in mehreren Kapiteln unter verschiedener Perspektive untersucht. Auf diese Weise ergeben sich ganz wesentliche neue Einsichten zum Gesamtschaffen Stravinskijs. The Language of Stravinsky proposes new methods of looking at Stravinsky’s work, more than 40 years after his death. It considers both his individual compositions and the evolution of his work over his lifetime. The main purpose of the book is to analyse and clarify the inner coherence of Stravinsky’s music, despite the wide variety of styles, instrumental combinations and theatrical modes with which he worked. Though his career is often seen as falling into three distinct periods – Russian, Neoclassical and Serial – his work as a whole is threaded through with a language unique to himself as a composer. The analysis presented in this account identifies the basic elements and grammar of this underlying musical language. Each of the eight chapters of the book focuses on one aspect of Stravinsky’s musical language, followed chronologically within that chapter. The same works are therefore often studied in different chapters, looked at from a different musical perspective. This analysis of Stravinsky’s music over time provides major new insights into his work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stravinsky's work spanned the major part of the twentieth century and engaged with nearly all its principal compositional developments. This Companion reflects the breadth of Stravinsky's achievement and influence in essays by leading international scholars on a wide range of topics. It is divided into three parts dealing with the contexts within which Stravinsky worked (Russian, modernist and compositional), with his key compositions (Russian, neoclassical and serial), and with the reception of his ideas (through performance, analysis and criticism). The volume concludes with an interview with the leading Dutch composer Louis Andriessen and a major re-evaluation of 'Stravinsky and Us' by Richard Taruskin.

Book The Evolution of Style in the Neoclassical Works of Stravinsky

Download or read book The Evolution of Style in the Neoclassical Works of Stravinsky written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compositional output of Igor Stravinsky is roughly divided into three periods: Russian, Neoclassical, and Serial. In his neoclassical period of composition, Stravinsky developed highly refined methods of formal construction, harmonic management, and use of counterpoint. Careful analysis of several neoclassical and transitional works serves to demonstrate Stravinsky's innovative methods of voice leading, economy of pitch class set material, and ingenuity in redefining Classical era forms. Stravinsky's Russian ballets are stylistically focused on practical and stage-oriented formal structures, stratified counterpoint, and thematic content originating in folk materials. As he began writing more concert music, the extraction of these stylistic elements posed structural problems. By reinventing formal structures, harmonic relationships, and voice-leading procedures of the Classical era, Stravinsky constructed his neoclassical style of writing.

Download or read book Stravinsky s Topology written by Andrew Thomas Kuster and published by Andrew Kuster. This book was released on 2005 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stravinsky's Topology is an innovative explanation of the music of the great composer Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971). Specifically, this book examines Stravinsky's implementation of certain twelve-tone row forms for particular formal events and to enhance the poetry in his later works with poetic texts. This book, reprinted from a doctoral dissertation, presents a new analytical method called Object-Oriented analysis to study Stravinsky's smaller works Epitaphium, Anthem, Elegy for J. F. K., Fanfare for a New Theater, and The Owl and the Pussy-Cat. The remainder of this book is devoted to a detailed examination of Stravinsky's expanded Object-Oriented compositional technique in The Flood and in his largest late work, Threni. This investigation concludes with remarks about how a conductor can apply Object-Oriented analysis in performance. 216 pages.
