A Wind Ensemble Adaptation And Conductor's Analysis Of Selected Movements Of Darius Milhaud's Saudades Do Brazil, With An Examination Of The Influences Of Ernesto Nazareth, Monty Roy Musgrave Jan 2005

A Wind Ensemble Adaptation And Conductor's Analysis Of Selected Movements Of Darius Milhaud's Saudades Do Brazil, With An Examination Of The Influences Of Ernesto Nazareth, Monty Roy Musgrave

LSU Major Papers

French composer Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) lived in Rio de Janeiro from early 1917 to late 1918 as an attaché to the French ambassador to Brazil. While there he discovered its popular music, in particular the works of the Brazilian pianist Ernesto Nazareth (1863-1934). Milhaud was fascinated by the Afro-Brazilian syncopated rhythms that constituted Brazilian popular music, which according to Milhaud “helped me better understand the Brazilian soul.” Milhaud’s Brazilian experiences profoundly affected his compositional style and inspired several important works in this idiom. Upon his return to France, Milhaud composed a suite of twelve dances for piano entitled Saudades do …


Concertino For Piano And Chamber Orchestra, By Mozart Camargo Guarnieri: A Performing Edition With Reduction Of The Orchestra For Second Piano, Francisco Coelho Ribeiro Da Silva Jan 2005

Concertino For Piano And Chamber Orchestra, By Mozart Camargo Guarnieri: A Performing Edition With Reduction Of The Orchestra For Second Piano, Francisco Coelho Ribeiro Da Silva

LSU Major Papers

The Concertino for Piano and Chamber Orchestra, by Brazilian nationalist composer Mozart Camargo Guarnieri (1907-1993), is one of his ten works for piano and orchestra. The work is cast in three movements in sonata, ternary, and rondo forms respectively, and contains elements of Brazilian folk music. It is possibly the most appealing work by Guarnieri in this medium, and it has been performed by artists of the caliber of Laís de Souza Brasil, Joo Carlos Martins, Roberto Szidon, and Caio Pagano. It dates from 1961, and like most of the other works by Guarnieri in this genre, its scores have …


A Survey Of The Operettas Of Emmerich Kálmán, Jessie Wright Martin Jan 2005

A Survey Of The Operettas Of Emmerich Kálmán, Jessie Wright Martin

LSU Major Papers

The purpose of this document is to introduce singers, teachers, and devotees of musical theater to the prolific stage output of Hungarian composer Emmerich Kálmán (1882-1953), who ranks with Johann Strauss II and Franz Lehár as one of the most important and most-often performed among the composers of Viennese operetta. Although today relatively unknown in this country, Kálmán's operettas have been performed consistently in Europe for almost a century. Most of his twenty-two works provide excellent vehicles for both collegiate and professional companies that wish to explore the genre of operetta. Following a biography and brief analysis of his compositional …


Interactive Computer Music: A Performer's Guide To Issues Surrounding Kyma With Live Clarinet Input, Roland Anton Karnatz Jan 2005

Interactive Computer Music: A Performer's Guide To Issues Surrounding Kyma With Live Clarinet Input, Roland Anton Karnatz

LSU Major Papers

Musicians are familiar with interaction in rehearsal and performance of music. Technology has become sophisticated and affordable to the point where interaction with a computer in real time performance is also possible. The nature of live interactive electronic music has blurred the distinction between the formerly exclusive realm of composition and that of performance. It is quite possible for performers to participate in the genre but currently little information is available for those wishing to explore it. This written document contains a definition of interaction, discussion on how it occurs in traditional music-making and a brief history of the emergence …

Three Choral Compositions By Alice Parker: A Conductor's Analysis Of Songstream, Angels And Challengers, And Songs From "The Dragon Quilt", Jennifer Sue King

LSU Major Papers

Alice Parker (b. 1925) has earned a place of respect in choral music through more than half a century of work in arranging and composition, conducting, teaching and writing. Her works reflect diverse interests, from short, unison pieces for treble choir, to the complexity of unaccompanied madrigals, to major choral/orchestral works and operas. Conductors and singers all over the world have been influenced by her writings, seminars and SINGS, and she continues to extol the value of music, both in the concert hall and as a part of everyday life. Scholarly research of her choral compositions is limited, and further …
