The Hand Horn In Performance, Elisa Balon Jan 2006

The Hand Horn In Performance, Elisa Balon

Senior Honors Theses and Projects

Using a natural horn similar to those used in the late eighteenth through the late nineteenth centuries, I performed music written for instruments of this type in a Department of Music and Dance Student Recital. The hand stopping method was used and this helped me to gain insights into performance practices of the natural horn in the Classical and Romantic Periods.


Mindfulness Meditation: Creative Musical Performance Through Awareness, Sheri Oyan Jan 2006

Mindfulness Meditation: Creative Musical Performance Through Awareness, Sheri Oyan

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Musicians spend countless hours practicing their instruments over the course of a lifetime. These hours are primarily spent learning how to manipulate the instrument through scale studies, etudes, and repertoire. However, despite intense and diligent effort, many musicians find themselves unable to perform for an audience without some kind of interruption in creativity in the form of mental and/or physical distractions. The symptoms of such distractions can include heart palpitations, muscle tension, shaking, feelings of fear and panic, and an inability to focus on the task at hand. The presence of these symptoms, typically referred to as “performance anxiety,” is, …


Transforming Messiaen : The Application Of Elements Of The Musical Language Of Olivier Messiaen To The Contemporary Jazz Orchestra, Johannes Luebbers Jan 2006

Transforming Messiaen : The Application Of Elements Of The Musical Language Of Olivier Messiaen To The Contemporary Jazz Orchestra, Johannes Luebbers

Theses : Honours

The music of Olivier Messiaen is a unique and interesting contribution to the canon of 20th Century art music, but one that has received little attention from the jazz world. Through a detailed study of his music, this dissertation aims to gain a deeper understanding of Messiaen's musical language and investigate the possibilities of applying that language within the jazz idiom. In addition to a discussion of Messiaen and his music, a detailed analysis of the author's own composition for pipe organ and jazz orchestra, Auguries of Innocence, will explore the results of this application. The complete scores and …

From Composition To Performance, Jacquelyn Dayle Zwiefel Jan 2006

From Composition To Performance, Jacquelyn Dayle Zwiefel

Presidential Scholars Theses (1990 – 2006)

As partial fulfillment of my senior thesis requirement, I chose to present a senior voice recital. This recital was a culmination of all that I learned as an undergraduate in the field of music. The music that I chose to perform allowed me to grow as a scholar, a musician, and a performer. I have also gained knowledge and strengthened my experience in ways that will be valuable to my career in music education. This presentation of music allowed me to grow in a way beyond that which is possible in the classroom.

Convergence And Divergence In Peter Mennin's Canzona, Gene H. Anderson Jan 2006

Convergence And Divergence In Peter Mennin's Canzona, Gene H. Anderson

Music Faculty Publications

In a brief but perspicacious study of Mennin' s music in 1954, Walter Hendl describes the composer as "a consummate craftsman who devotes great attention to the organization of materials." Although Hendl may not have known Canzona, which had been premiered in 1951 but not published until the year of his essay, the author's statement could well have been written with Mennin's sole piece for band specifically in mind. Not only is every aspect of Canzona integrally related to every other, but the relationships are deployed with a remarkable economy of means.


Beatbox (Score), Gary Smart Jan 2006

Beatbox (Score), Gary Smart

Music Faculty Research and Scholarship

This group of short pieces for two pianists playing one piano was composed for a tour of central Japan in the summer of 2006. At a concert in Kyoto I premiered this collection, as secundo pianist, with six of my former Japanese piano students, each playing one movement with me. Each movement is dedicated to that individual and I like to think that these movements reflect, to some extent, each pianists’ personality.

The title “Beatbox” refers to the repetitive rhythmic motives which serve as the basis for each movement. This music features energetic ostinati, and thick, bopish textures. Movement five …
