Book Synopsis Musical Form and Analysis by : Glenn Spring
Download or read book Musical Form and Analysis written by Glenn Spring and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the way music unfolds to the listener is a major key for unlocking the secrets of the composer’s art. Musical Form and Analysis, highly regarded and widely used for two decades, provides a balanced theoretical and philosophical approach that helps upper-level undergraduate music majors understand the structures and constructions of major musical forms. Spring and Hutcheson present all of the standard topics expected in such a text, but their approach offers a unique conceptual thrust that takes readers beyond mere analytical terminology and facts. Evocative rather than encyclopedic, the text is organized around three elements at work at all levels of music: time, pattern, and proportion. Well-chosen examples and direct, well-crafted assignments reinforce techniques. A 140-page anthology of music for in-depth analysis provides a wide range of carefully selected works.
Book Synopsis Basic Formal Structures in Music by : Paul Hendricks Fontaine
Download or read book Basic Formal Structures in Music written by Paul Hendricks Fontaine and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This text is intended primarily for students of college level who have had at least one year of theory: in most colleges and universities this means two semesters or the equivalent. A modest knowledge of harmony, extending to the more common altered chords such as augmented sixths and diminished sevenths, is assumed. Also, the student should understand the forms and functions of ordinary cadences. An attempt has been made here to bring some order to the study of subphrase units, especially motives. This and the subsequent study of phrases and phrase-groups are the two most important steps in any approach to musical form. They are fundamental to all styles and types of music. The story of the elementary forms and how they grew is a sort of capsule history of music. The subject is pursued in this book beyond the traditional classical forms in order to investigate certain adaptations of these old forms. Some of the miscellaneous studies in Chapter 12 are concerned with definite hybrid types. Great emphasis is placed on student participation. Modest opportunities for original composition (a most valuable instructional techniqe) are included as optional assignments in the early chapters. The instructor can, at his discretion, add to these or omit them. The making of graphs compels a student to analyze the formal details of a composition and reduce them to a visible form on paper in a manner permitting easy correction. Here, again, the instructor can determine subject matter for such analyses according to his own preferences and experience. The final chapter devoted to recent music touches on what appears to the author to be the more important advances or developments in compositional techniques affecting form in our time." --Preface.

Download or read book Musical Form, Forms & Formenlehre written by William Earl Caplin and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tone of the debates among Caplin, Hepokoski, and Webster (in the form of comments on each author''s essay and then responses to the comments), though tactful, is obliquely blunt and tendentious; like the best of tennis pros, each author strives to serve an ace and defends the net against a passing shot (with Caplin, the ace is for formal function; with Hepokoski for Sonata Theory and dialogic form; with Webster for multivalent analysis). But we can trust that this provocative exchange will thoroughly invigorate discussions about classical form and encourage diverse approaches to its analys.

Download or read book A Practical Approach to the Study of Form in Music written by Peter Spencer and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 1994-07-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning musics organizing principles . . . Approaching the study of form as an exercise in perceiving the interaction of a number of discrete musical events, Spencer and Temkos book embodies much more than a search for visual clues. Students of form develop perceptual tools that allow them to proceed from the aural experience to an understanding of the arch-principles upon which music is organized. The authors hold that the organizing principles of a given piece of music may be gleaned from studying the internal attributes that give a section its specific identity, the functional relations between sections, and the ordering of those sections.

Book Synopsis The Rhetoric and Symbolism of Forms in Romantic Music by : Patrick Saint-Dizier
Download or read book The Rhetoric and Symbolism of Forms in Romantic Music written by Patrick Saint-Dizier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the contribution of the symbolic aspects of musical forms and structures to rhetoric and argumentation during the Romantic period. While there are several studies on this topic dedicated to the Baroque era, there are much fewer contributions on the Romantic period. This book shows that the aesthetics of Romantic music are very strong, persuasive and expressive, and are paramount for communicating in our everyday life. Investigating the impact of musical structures on our cognitive and psychological attitudes is the central issue of this book. Within a cognitive science perspective, it introduces the different elements of meaning conveyed by music through an analysis of several major works of composers of the Romantic era. As such, the book is an accessible introduction to anyone with a basic background in music, and will be of interest to teachers and researchers in music, psychology, cognition, linguistics and computer science.
Download or read book Composing Music written by Kevin A. Ure and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text serves as a short primer and details the basic principles of form in a musical work. It's intended to provide an introduction to musical forms while introducing the composer to some methods of creating original forms. Readers will learn about the concept of form, which includes a discussion of motives, phrases, periods, and melody. The text then describes some of the larger forms, including the aria, symphony, rondo, and a brief discussion of how to create original forms for a musical work. Far from being a comprehensive work, this is a short and concise discussion of some basic concepts that all composers regardless of style should comprehend. Intended to act as a sample to give a preview of the type of content in our larger works, this text functions as a sort of master class in a very narrowly defined subject. After reviewing this lesson, consider purchasing one of our in-depth texts to gain a greater understanding of how to create highly effective musical works.At the end of this text, you can read the first few chapters of The Elements of Music Composition. This text details a method that composers can use to tie all of the other disciplines of music composition together into one cohesive music composition technique. Thematic Materials - Motives, Themes, Melodies, and Form Determining musical form based on the motive and melody This lesson introduces you to the basic elements of a motive and the different ways motives are employed by composers to create melodies. The course details how a composer can determine the overall length and structure of the piece through a careful analysis of small thematic elements. This is a crucial skill beginning composers may lack, but it can be developed with the right knowledge and practice.

Book Synopsis Morphogenesis of Symbolic Forms: Meaning in Music, Art, Religion, and Language by : Wolfgang Wildgen
Download or read book Morphogenesis of Symbolic Forms: Meaning in Music, Art, Religion, and Language written by Wolfgang Wildgen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present book, the starting line is defined by a morphogenetic perspective on human communication and culture. The focus is on visual communication, music, religion (myth), and language, i.e., on the “symbolic forms” at the heart of human cultures (Ernst Cassirer). The term “morphogenesis” has more precisely the meaning given by René Thom (1923-2002) in his book “Morphogenesis and Structural Stability” (1972) and the notions of “self-organization” and cooperation of subsystems in the “Synergetics” of Hermann Haken (1927- ). The naturalization of communication and cultural phenomena is the favored strategy, but the major results of the involved disciplines (art history, music theory, religious science, and linguistics) are respected. Visual art from the Paleolithic to modernity stands for visual communication. The present book focuses on studies of classical painting and sculpture (e.g., Leonardo da Vinci, William Turner, and Henry Moore) and modern art (e.g., Jackson Pollock and Joseph Beuys). Musical morphogenesis embraces classical music (from J. S. Bach to Arnold Schönberg) and political songwriting (Bob Dylan, Leonhard Cohen). The myths of pre-literary societies show the effects of self-organization in the re-assembly (bricolage) of traditions. Classical polytheistic and monotheistic religions demonstrate the unfolding of basic germs (religious attractors) and their reduction in periods of crisis, the self-organization of complex religious networks, and rationalized macro-structures (in theologies). Significant tendencies are analyzed in the case of Buddhism and Christianism. Eventually, a holistic view of symbolic communication and human culture emerges based on state-of-the-art in evolutionary biology, cognitive science, linguistics, and semiotics (philosophy of symbolic forms).
