Bridging Two Worlds: Baroque Violin Performance Practices As A Model For The Transcription Of Selected Movements Of J.S. Bach's Sonatas And Partitas For Solo Violin On The Modern Guitar, Júlio Alves Oct 2015

Bridging Two Worlds: Baroque Violin Performance Practices As A Model For The Transcription Of Selected Movements Of J.S. Bach's Sonatas And Partitas For Solo Violin On The Modern Guitar, Júlio Alves

Júlio Ribeiro Alves

This document explores the role of the baroque violin practices of bowing, chord playing, and slurring in arrangements for the modern guitar, of selected movements of J. S. Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas (BWV 1001-1006) for solo violin. This document aims to expand the range of possible solutions for all guitarists interested in playing Bach’s unaccompanied solo music by making a “bridge” between these essential performance practices of the baroque violin and the capabilities of the modern guitar. Some practices associated with other baroque instruments such as the lute and the harpsichord are also considered. The guitar arrangements included at the …

Listening Origins, Habits, And Habitus, Mark Zanter May 2013

Listening Origins, Habits, And Habitus, Mark Zanter

Mark Zanter

Listening habits offer us insight into music’s affect on us as individuals, artists, and as members of the various communities we inhabit. Using the lens of phenomenology to assess and explore the nature of the listening experience, I will investigate recent writings on music perception, and modes of listening focusing on their use: by individuals in everyday life; in perceiving musical works and the role of music in multi-media; and in generating habitus—social codes in the musical cultures we inhabit. Once the notions of habits and habitus have been established, I will posit that listening, in the context of new …

The Form Of The Preludes To Bach's Unaccompanied Cello Suites, Daniel E. Prindle May 2012

The Form Of The Preludes To Bach's Unaccompanied Cello Suites, Daniel E. Prindle

Daniel E. Prindle

This thesis proposes a methodology for understanding the form of a Baroque prelude, particularly the preludes to the Six Suites for Unaccompanied Violoncello written by Johann Sebastian Bach. Four musical dimensions, tonal structure, motive, texture, and the potential implications of a piece’s genre, parse the preludes in different ways. As the features of these musical dimensions undergo either an evolution or a dramatic change over the course of each prelude, they each suggest a different form. Points of change in each dimension delineate segments in the music. When aligned, these changes create significant formal junctures and suggest an overall form …
