Book Synopsis Performance Practice in the Music of Steve Reich by : Russell Hartenberger
Download or read book Performance Practice in the Music of Steve Reich written by Russell Hartenberger and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance Practice in the Music of Steve Reich provides a performer's perspective on Steve Reich's compositions from his iconic minimalist work, Drumming, to his masterpiece, Music for 18 Musicians. It addresses performance issues encountered by the musicians in Reich's original ensemble and the techniques they developed to bring his compositions to life. Drawing comparisons with West African drumming and other non-Western music, the book highlights ideas that are helpful in the understanding and performance of rhythm in all pulse-based music. Through conversations and interviews with the author, Reich discusses his percussion background and his thoughts about rhythm in relation to the music of Ghana, Bali, India, and jazz. He explains how he used rhythm in his early compositions, the time feel he wants in his music, the kind of performer who seems to be drawn to his music, and the way perceptual and metrical ambiguity create interest in repetitive music.

Book Synopsis The Modern Percussion Revolution by : Kevin Lewis
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.
Book Synopsis Discourses of Quality in the Education of the Musical Percussionist by : Robert Guy Schoville
Download or read book Discourses of Quality in the Education of the Musical Percussionist written by Robert Guy Schoville and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT This discourse analysis employs Michel Foucault's practice of problematization to conduct an archaeological examination of discursive formations that brought the object of western percussion and the subject of the musical percussionist into their conditions of modern possibility in higher education. The archaeological analysis describes a confluence of nineteenth-century thought linking percussion and the percussionist to notions of progressive evolution and to qualitative comparisons between notions of western civilization and primitive non-western drumming. The archaeology is followed by a genealogical analysis of the Percussive Arts Society archive Percussive Notes 1963-1987, where I conduct a close reading of texts that deploy notions of quality as a discursive technology to mark differences between drummers and percussionists, as well as kinds of music. The genealogical analysis describes how discourses of quality differentiate drumming from percussion and the drummer from the percussionist based on the idea that quality music is melodic music belonging to the western classical music tradition. To perform quality music, the percussionist must be taught how to read music notation, understand music theory, and play a definite pitched mallet percussion instrument, as opposed to a snare drum or drums belonging to a non-western culture. The use of quality as a marker of difference was fundamental to a discursive strategy developed throughout the PAS archive to transform the image of the percussionist away from the abjected, primitive, functional, unmusical, drummer. The strategy focused on reforms to the music education curriculum that emphasized teaching the student how to first play a definite-pitched mallet percussion instrument, thereby shifting the subject position of the potential percussionist away from the practices of an unmusical drummer. A notable absence in the archive was any mention of the interrelationship between colonial discourses concerning percussion and systemic racism. Masking the relationship between the modern invention of percussion, racialized colonial discursive practices of progressive evolution-non-western drumming as primitive versus western percussion as civilized-were discourses that spoke to music as a universal language and music as on object of aesthetic contemplation existing outside the socio-cultural politics of knowledge. Implications of the study suggest that the concept of percussion and the musical percussionist are recent inventions discursively developed around notions of quality and linked to racist constructions of non-western drummers. A second implication is that the curriculum design of preservice music teacher education was shaped by notions of quality music and musicality, particularly in response to the discursive strategy for fabricating the percussionist as a musician. Also, the analysis suggests that the monocultural hegemony of the WCMT in the music curriculum in higher education is conditioned on the use of quality as a form of power/knowledge to normalize the ordering and sorting of music traditions. Finally, to address the ways in which percussion and the percussionist intersect with the politics of race, gender, sexuality, ableness, etc., I propose the development of what I tentatively term Critical Percussion Studies (CPS) as an academic project with a research component that actively works to bring multiple theoretical perspectives and research practices to questions concerning the development of percussion performance and pre-service music educator curricula in higher education. It is within the framework of CPS that I suggest future research examining the emergence of the "cosmopercussionist," a new subject of percussion education in higher education whose conditions of possibility require the recycling of past discourses concerning progressive evolution married to 21st-century discourses in higher education concerned with fabricating students as "global citizens."
