Full textMusic will be discussed hereunder using psychoanalytical concepts. The ground will be Freud's and Lacan's theories. First, the road from linguistic to psychoanalysis , that places meaning in a new field and lets music be considered a discourse, as well as dreams or symptoms. Musical activity will be confronted to Lacan's intersubjectivity diagram. Applied research studies demonstrated that human development was driven by desire and its realisation. Music will therefore be analysed from the angle of desire. Music's singularity among other forms of sublimation will be obvious. The Orpheus myth, which is of paramount importance for musical activity, will be analysed through its early versions, then through its musical adaptations. The musical discourse will be finally focused on, searching for clues of displacement or condensation
Koppe, Dominique. "La trompette dans la seconde moitié du vingtième siècle : facture, technique et interprétation." Paris 4, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996PA040198.
Full textDuring the eighteenth century, composers used to consider the trumpet as a fringe instrument cut off from the strings, the latters being dealt with as the foundation of the orchestra. In the nineteenth century, on the contrary, the making of this neglected instrument as well as the concern of musicians themselves, worked towards giving a less subdued lighting on trumpets and opened new developments for them. Several aesthetics trends of the early 1900s strengthened the position of the trumpet as a key instrument among soloists but equally in the circle of chamber music. Nowadays the trumpet still retains favour with an inseparable threesome composed of the maker, the performer, and the composer. The writer of this thesis sets out to study the link between the making, the technique and the rendering of the trumpet during the second half of this century thanks to the observation of the Berliner Philharmonische Orchester, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, the Orchestre de l'Opéra de Paris and the Wiener Philharmonische Orchester

Full textThe work of the English composer Brian Ferneyhough (born in 1943) has never stopped arousing impassioned criticisms which, regrettably, are mostly confined to superficial comments on the complexity of his scores. From a study of the sketches of two works, Kurze Schatten II (1983-89) and Terrain (1992), the present thesis seeks to demonstrate how this complexity constitutes the means chosen by the composer to update traditional categories, in terms of pitch as much as rhythm and form. It also seems that the complexity serves precise aesthetic issues: by its psychological impact on the interpreter, it invests Ferneyhough's music of a real dramatic force, while allowing the composer to deploy with great freedom the 'figures' which are such an essential element of his thought. After having approached the constraints which such a complexity presents, the thesis will show how Ferneyhough's interest for Walter Benjamin's philosophy is, too, closely connected to the complexity of his music
Leikert, Sebastian. "La perversion du signifiant : éléments et constructions d'une interprétation psychanalytique de la musique." Paris 8, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995PA081029.
Full textThe lacanian theory is applied to the discourse of music. The voice, object cause of desire in music, is studied in it's cathartive function, which ha often been mistrustred, because it is not loyal to any moral code. The signifier of the discourse of music is different from the signifier of language, because he is not shaped by a mulitude of letters and can therefore not bind a stable signication by a fixed constellation of letters. Also, music can, by no means, express a negation, the economy of pleasure, however, depends on a psychic strudcture, which is based on negation : the name-of-the-father. So the questiopn arrises, how a subject, submitted to this discourse, can find a stable position. This question is discussed with regard to the well tempered piano of j. S. Bach, where a constellation of letters and notes replacs the name-of-the-father, with regard to the ninth sinfonie of l. V. Beethoven, where the the failiure of this essay is demonstrated and with regard to the work of james joyce, which is based on a musical relation to the signifier
Szulman, Julien. "Georges Enesco, violoniste : formation, technique et interprétation." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024SORUL066.
Full textGeorges Enesco's (1881 1955) various activities as a composer, conductor, violinist, and pianist place him among the most fascinating musicians of the first half of the 20th century. This thesis specifically focuses on his role as a violinist, aiming to unveil tangible elements regarding his performance style. The research aims to provide a comprehensive amount of information both technically and musically, allowing for a better understanding of the Romanian violinist's playing style and offering insights into the interpretative context of the time. The first part of the thesis is devoted to studying his violin apprenticeship, with particular emphasis on his time at the Paris Conservatoire. The second part, drawing on various sources, focuses on a meticulous description of his violin technique. The third part, using the Sonic Visualiser software, constitutes a case study examining his use of vibrato and portamento in the recordings he made for the Columbia label between 1924 and 1930. The appendices of the thesis include a comprehensive discography of the violinist as well as a repertoire of works for violin performed by the Romanian musician

Full textThis research explores the mechanisms for sharing the interpretation of music from the point of view of the performers. It is based on an experiment on the ground realised with a professional contemporary music ensemble. The work was observed and analised according to the principles of the Action Research and the Constant Comparative Method of Strauss and Corbin, with the purpose of describing and classifying the behavior of musicians and understanding and clarifying the modality of communication and interaction between them. The experiment was about two works of Anglo-Saxon composers (Ensemble by Tim Parkinson and Treatise by Cornelius Cardew) issued from ‘open works’ repertoire, because its demand to the interpreters to define the final form of music lead to a collective process on the interpretation that multiplies communication and interaction between musicians.Data analysis led us to think that the musicians share the expressive core of music–for his nature unspeakable–through a kind of embodied knowledge and intuition, that can exist only if every participant is open to the others. The quality of relationships between musicians is a prerequisite for sharing the interpretation.Its fundamentals are not conveyed by words but flows between the musicians through the identification with the others and through the musical material itself, the sound.Verbal communication is limited, in most cases, to the technical speech, that, often hiddens expressive thoughts behind the words. Our hypothesis is that the activation of the mirror neurons system allows partners to understand gestures such as emotions, but verification must await further research in the field of neurosciences

Full textAs far as the Greek composer, politician, thinker and reformer Mikis Theodorakis is concerned, the link between “learned music” and “popular music” establishes a connection between the elite and the people. This belief guided his artistic creation as well as his political action. Convinced, since his adolescence bound to the concept of Liberty, that “the education of the people is one of the factors that contribute to their liberation” and inspired by “the cultural and socialist revolution”, Theodorakis has spearheaded the “political and cultural movement of rebirth” in Greece during the sixties, and created a “music for the masses”. This music is born from “the marriage of Greek traditional and popular music and neohellenic contemporary poetry”. This union results in the emergence of new musical forms such as the cycle of songs, the popular oratorio, the contemporary popular musical tragedy and the flow-song, which are peculiar to the “learned-popular song movement”. But above all, the “music for the masses” reflects the soul of the people and passes on a message of peace, liberty, and democracy, which are the main points of the theodorakian thinking. It is conveyed to the audience thru “popular concerts”, inspired by “eleusinian ceremonies”. The poetical and musical analysis of “Eluard”, “Lyrikotera”, “Lyrikotata”, “Ballad of the Dead Brother”, “Our Sister Athina” and “Cities A’, B’, C’ et D’” as well as the study of the “communication channel” created between the compositor and the audience, highlights the elements that transformed the theodorakian music, known as the Hymn to Life and Liberty, into “ecumenical” music
Ducharme, Jean. "L'un et l'autre dans la musique d'André Boucourechliev." Paris, EHESS, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996EHES0306.
Full textPianist, composer and musicographer andre boucourechliev is one of today's most renowned french musicians. The first part of the thesis consists of a biography mostly devoted to his youth in bulgarie and his years of apprenticeship. The second part deals with a capital aspect of his music : indeterminacy and mobile form. The third part is the core of the thesis : a detailed analysis of fourteen compositions - from archipel 1 (1967) to trois fragments de michel-ange (1995). These analysis identify the works' different components and their innumerable relationships. Finally, the author displays boucourechliev's main preoccupations, which can also be found in his numerous writings
Goasdoué, Rémi. "Évolution des stratégies d'élaboration du projet musical et de sa réalisation dans l'apprentissage du violon." Paris 10, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA100161.
Full textStudying interpretation often led to oppose motor and cognitive aspects or levels of planning and performing. Strengthened by the usual opposition of music and technique, these descriptions often lead to overrate the role of planning and, above all, to dissociate these two aspects of interpretation. I propose a different analysis, analogous to K. Newell's definition of action (1986), by which interpretation emerges from a set of constraints: the musical score, the instrument, the violinist. The learning processes seem to be closer to a set of successive reorganisations commanded by these various constraints rather than to the sustained improvement of the same strategies. Each one of the experiments depicted below is lays the emphasis on one of the criteria of the threefold relation. The first two brought to light changes in reading strategies according to the musicians' ability and the part's caracteristics. By relating an analysis of motion and of its outcome on sound, the next two show that the working-out of the musical project is closely knit to the mastering of the instruments' physical caracteristics. As opposed to the often-used serial models, the definition of interpretation I put forward enables us to figure out the existence of bottom-up processes : the performer's interaction with his instrument not only enhances his musical project, but it also brings broader-based, essential concepts tied to the mastering of score reading and that of intonation for violinists
Message, Jacques. "L'idée de saut qualitatif : Kierkegaard, philosophie et musique." Lyon 3, 1986. http://www.theses.fr/1986LYO31016.
Full textKierkegaard does not conceive of sin as a dogmatic denomination for man's imperfection. He sees it as the very expression of selfhood, as the modern version of antic tragedy. While transforming hegel's analysis, kierkegaard does not ascribe to tragicness the sole meaning of a tension between "steps" of being. There is an internal tension to each of them. Each includes tension between temporal and eternal, happiness and unhappiness, faith and despair. A careful listening of don giovanni while restoring their interfering, allows to understand how sin and hid abyss can be stepped over in one gesture, namely the qualitative difference
Giraldi, Dei Cas Norah. "Musique et structure narrative dans l'oeuvre de Felisberto Hernandez." Paris 3, 1992. http://www.theses.fr/1992PA030075.
Full textMusic in an essential referent in felisberto hernandez's literary production. The musical component appears at different levels of the narrative discourse of the author, who is himself a pianist. At a thematic level, music way evoke autobiographical elements quite explicitely or it may serve as an implicite or suggestive allusion creating this way a hernandez-style intertextuality. Furthermore, his narrative technique express the presence of a musical metalanguage based on analogies between music and literature. The absence of music often results in interrupting or deviating the narration. The narrative voice is subjected to modal changes and alterations that finally contribute to the peculiarity of the discourse, which itself results from repetition and variation. This means transposition, hence understanting the difference between music and literature. Each of his texts is a new pretext for writing. This aspect is illustrated by his texts, hitherto unpublished, presented here for the first time. The apparently unfinished character of some of his texts doesn't mean the absence of an internal cohesion. Their unisual aspect may be explained by their capacity to integrate different influences and vestiges coming from other codes, namely those of musical semiotics. And yet their message is universal : a modern interpretation of the myth of orpheus
Guitton-Lanquest, Pascale. "Quelques aspects du sacré dans la musique française contemporaine : 1980-1992." Paris 4, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002PA040205.
Full textPART ONE situates sacred elements in their historical an musical context between 1980 and 1992. Chapter I deals with the sacred heritage of the Judeo-Christian tradition, the cultural base of our analysis. Chapter II examines the tendencies of sacred elements in music in the light of contemporary documents : the theories and aims of composers through their writings on style and esthetics. PART TWO (four chapters) presents the following four musicians : Charles Chaynes, Jean-Louis Florentz, Jacques Castérède and Edith Canat de Chizy, examining sacredness in these composers and in their work. PART THREE (Chapters VII-X) details four significant compositions : The search for sacredness by Charles Chaynes, Magnificat-Antiphon for the Visitation by Jean-Louis Florentz, Liturgies of life and death by Jacques Castérède, and Canciones by Edith Canat de Chizy
Fraboulet, Meyer Aurélie. "Corps et interprétation : lorsque le corps pianistique raconte une histoire." Thesis, Paris 10, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA100215.
Full textEvery subject possesses not only one human body but several bodies, influenced by their interaction with the environment. A subject is also influenced by a primitive corporal dimension, which incarnates their style, their way of being in the world. Style is inserted into the expressive intentions of the subject, by an intentional and unconscious energy which influences their behaviour. This doctoral thesis concerns the expressive intentions of a pianist during the performance of musical gesture (a combination of the subject’s mental representation of the musical work and the involvement of the pianist’s body). Results have shown that both style and the primitive dimension orient a pianist’s body towards a particular organization: a body organized at various levels linked to differing aspects of musical gesture. This organization suggests that a pianist’s body incarnates the proto-narrative structure of musical gesture, implying that a pianist’s body also incarnates their personal story constructed throughout their mental representation of the musical work. It is not purely a functional support, neither purely an emotional support, but fits in above these two dimensions. Furthermore, a pianist’s body is manipulated unconsciously, confirming the existence of an intentional and unconscious energy. This research shows importantly that a pianist’s body has been “surnaturé” to incarnate the telling of a story
Sousa, Bittencourt Pedro. "Interprétation musicale participative : la médiation d'un saxophoniste dans l'articulation des compositions mixtes contemporaines." Thesis, Paris 8, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA080075/document.
Full textThis research is about the collaboration of a saxophonist-researcher with several composers in electro acoustic music with saxophones. Mixed music combines a performer playing acoustic instruments (traditional or not) interacting with digital and electronics means of all sort of operations, time scales and technical configurations, diffused by loudspeakers. We understand participation in our case as human exchanges in musical digital environments, and as the creation of new links that didn’t exist before. Our research proposes a reflection on listening approaches through the XXst century and studying mixed music through the multi scale approach. The saxophonist gives a contribution, that enhance a creative perspective for each musical piece that influence the composers’ work. Which techniques and which musical knowledge can be exchanged and enlarged thanks to this multiple feedback ? The work on first sources, the competence exchanges between musicians during the many steps of their process of collaborative work construct what we call participatory interpretation in new music. In some aspects we get close to the integral and systemic action-research, since we take part in our study objet, and we modify it in a dynamic process. We propose that the analysis of the musical pieces from our collaborations can bring forth an original knowledge about them and enhance musical creativity. Participatory interpretation optimizes the musical results and explore new mixed “composable” spaces. As a demonstration, some pieces are though analyzed under this participatory perspective. Our research leads to a conclusion towards the idea of plasticity in music making

Trebinjac, Sabine. "Musique ouïgoure et collectes musicales en Chine." Paris 10, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA100023.
Full textAncient rescripts (since the 2nd century b. C. ) and modern regulations (up to post Maoist texts) are used to prove the primordial role of the musical domain and of music itself, which must be treated respectively as a political symbolic field and as an emblem. In china music is an affair of state - a tool employed by governors to realize their policies and to proclaim the benefits of their rule. So important were musical affairs that special institutions devoted to them were deemed necessary. The history of several successive "bureau of music" is reconstructed: their internal organization as well as their position within the state is analyzed. It thus becomes clear that these institutions were important in all periods, both in the number of officials they employed as their position in the institutional hierarchy (as they are linked to the highest authorities of the state). The essential task of these institutions was, and still is, to collect the musics of the whole empire and to redisseminate them throughout the country - in other words, to create a "state traditionalism". Then, because musical rewriting is inherent in collecting, a kind of "recipe book" of rewriting is attempted through the example of Uyghur music, which is one the most distant musical traditions from the Chinese one. Following an essay formalizing musical rewriting, the dissertation concludes with a model theory of state traditionalism
Chèvremont, Alexandre. "Du romantisme au classique dans la musique : E. T. A. Hoffmann, Amadeus Wendt et la musique de Ludwig Van Beethoven." Lille 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010LIL30003.
Full textNobody would deny today that Beethoven's music belongs to the classical style started out by Haydn and Mozart. Yet, the obviousness of this statement hides a genuine philosophical problem : what does speaking of "classical music" imply ? The following work pursues two aims : exhuming the thought of a neglected philosopher, Amadeus Wendt, who gave the first formulation of the idea of a classical period in music in 1836 ; and proving that his aesthetics prolongs and confirms E. T. A Hoffmann's musical romanticism, which in this perspective will be given more thought. To both Hoffmann and Wendt, Beethoven's music represents the height of instrumental music, and must be clarified in this regard by their thinking about the universal history of music and art. Their aesthetics is thoroughly studied here. The confronting views of Hoffmann and Wendt about Beethoven are the exact opposite of the result of Hegel's aesthetics, who considers, at the time of Wendt's writings, that music, because of its extreme "romanticism", is on the brink of transgressing the bounds of art, and remains surprisingly silent about Beethoven. The classic, according to Wendt, must on the contrary be understood as the fulfilling of the promises of Hoffmann's romanticism about music. Beyond their thinking about the history of art, Hoffmann and Wendt suggest that music completes the essence of art, what cannot be superseded in history

Full textThe present dissertation is divided in three major parts. In the first part, the author is analysing the role and the fundamental place that music occupied in his life : during his childhood, his tormented bodyhood (the relationship with his half-brother, the musician Theodor Isenberg, the impact of the pietistic environment, the salving part of the music. . . ) and finallay, during his existence of a poet and writer (influence of the music on his private and marital life, exchanges and mutuality between him and numerous musicians. . . ). The second part of this work is based on Hermann Hesses conception of music, his reflections about music, composers and their works, but also on his thoughts about the art of musical interpretation and the essence of all music. The last part is dedicated to the study of the music and writings of Hemann Hesse, more specifically in his novels Gertrud, Der Steppenwolf and Das Glasperlenspiel

Full textJan Václav Hugo Voříšek (1791-1825) has an indispensable role in the music history: being the creator of the genre impromptu, his visionary musical style has many qualities. His music has a great potential to speak to nowaday´s public, if well interpreted. This thesis wishes to fill three gaps in the existing treatment of the subject: the research in the field of the theory of interpretation, the comented critical edition and the work of the applied research – a complete recording on an instrument suitable to the repertoire. The text offers the results of the research and shows the possibilities of today´s interpretation of early music. First chapter treats composer´s life and artistic developpement, the second chapter orientates on general period interpretation and the third chapter analyses Voříšek´s solo piano music. Two practical annexes complete the thesis. One of them is the suggestion of changes in the existing edition, in order to fulfill the needs of the historically informed interpretation. The other one, the recording shows an interpretation based on a study of the musical sources and of the period practise, on an instrument close to the time of the genesis of the works performed. The aim was to apply the results of the theoretical research presented in the second and the third chapter of this thesis in the interpretation

Ramopoulou, Lorenda. "La musique pour piano solo de Nikos Skalkottas." Thesis, Paris 4, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA040017.
Full textThis thesis is a research into the style and influences on the solo piano works of Nikos Skalkottas (1904-1949). For the first time the composer is considered in relation to the pianistic milieu he was acquainted with during his Berlin years (1921-1933) and his oeuvre is examined in the light of its various references. A specific analytical methodology emerges from these influences, aiming at facilitating the performer’s work and revealing the stylistic components of the pieces. The refinement of the timbre in the playing of Berlin pianists in the interwar years, enhanced by the “coloured sound” of the Bechstein historical pianos, acquires a special importance. It leads to a series of analyses and graphs, showing the role of texture and timbre as compositional elements in Skalkottas’s piano music. The graphs, meant for the use of pianists, reveal an interaction between texture and form. This is complemented by the study of the piano pieces grouped according to their references; they extend from baroque music and Beethoven to dance jazz, light music, and Greek music elements. Both approaches can be justified from the study of primary sources, used for the first time in relation to this repertoire, and are complementary. By offering pianists new tools for its interpretation, the aim is to facilitate the access to this music and help its further promotion
Cristiá, Cintia. "Xul Solar et la musique." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040197.
Full textThe study of music in the life and work (Argentine, 1887-1963) reveals new aspects of a very particular personality. Painter, writer and linguist, but also astrologist and inventor, Xul Solar studied many subjects. The sound is integrated into a complex tissue of knowledge that finds visual form in his watercolours, drawings and oil paintings, in his puppet theatre, in his variation of chess. The invented musical notation systems, as well as the keyboards modified to allow their application, are the result of deep thought on the interralation between the arts. His linguistic and esoteric works also show the inluence of music. In order to clarify the implications of this subject, this dissertation approaches it in three stages: firstly, the biography of the artist is presented in three chapters, emphazing the role that music played in hid life (family heritage, studies, musical relations, influence of the milieu, musical affinities, collections, etc. ). Secondly, his investigation on music relatd aspects, such as notation, organology and the application of the interrelation of the arts, are organised in the three following chapters. Finally, the presence of music in his pictorial work is studied in the third part, by means of the analysis, sometimes accompanied by more or less audacious interpretations, of some thirty music related paintings. Xul Solar's figure and work are at every stage placed in the historical and aesthetic context in order to comprehend their real value
Désesquelles, Anne-Claire. "L'expression musicale." Paris 1, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA010540.
Full textBased on analysed examples, taken from great musical works, and on philosophical texts dealing with music, this thesis develops the following ideas : 1) music is endowed with a real power of expression : in the listener's mind, the sounds are converted into a succession of tensions and loosenings characteristic of the process of desire, and thus lead to unrest or peace according to the degree of expressivity. 2) the meaning which is expressed stems from the very shape of the work, consequently from its style, i. E. An original way of organizing sounds. 3) it is unjustified to impart all the power of expression to the tune only, since the other components also contribute, in particular rhytm, timbre and even silence. 4) expression is not more absolutely direct than wholly transcendent to sounds. As its essence is metaphorical, it enables the listener to have access to an inner life both adventurous and coherent, and bestows on him an imaginary being endowed with a rich and unified essence. Thus, a work satisfies the longing to be, which any human being craves for, and is blest with a metaphysical dimension which explains the fascination it rouses notwithstanding the variety of cultures and characters

Full textI should like to analyse the function of the term "music" in Mallarme's poetics, with special emphasis on the notion of "absolute music". This concept was propagated by Eduard Hanslick in his opposition to Richard Wagner, taken as the representative of the adherents of "programme music". Several nineteenthcentury French poets took an interest in the symphony, but the composer who influenced them most directly was Wagner, whereas the name of Hanslick was unfamiliar to them. Mallarme's notions of this new music came from Wagner ; but he was always jealous of the power of symphonies. Though he had lost faith in God, he sought a prototype of poetry in listening to Latin sacred chants, whose meaning is incomprehensible to the public. The cult of "absolute Music" is closely related to the emergence of the concert-going public, for example, those who attended the Pasdeloup concerts that held audiences of five thousand spellbound every evening in the 1860's. The general public have a great role in Mallarme's poetics. To understand the theme of music in his writings, we need to study how the new musical and theatrical public changed society towards the close of the 19th century. For this purpose, we shall draw on Benjamin's analysis of the transformation of Paris caused by Haussmann's urban planning, and we shall examine his key notion of allegory. Moreover, we shall deal with the other arts painting, theatre, dance - in connection with which the poet pursued his reflection on the nature of music
Oviedo, Alvaro. "Des champs de forces : György Kurtág, Helmut Lachenmann et la question du geste musical." Paris 8, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA083452.
Full textThis research examines György Kurtág’s and Helmut Lachenmann’s works through the analyse of a concept of musical gesture including three complementary dimensions. The first one is the instrumental and (vocal) action which is a fundemental aspect of the music of both composers. The second dimension to explore reveals how the expressifs elements can be crystallized in the musical material. At last, I examine the musical form as a dynamic process. By the analysis of the concept of musical gesture I can investigate the energetic character of Kurtág’s and Lachenmann’s music. This approach reveals how the composers work on the musician actions for the interpretation. At the same time, it shows the power of the music to absorbe extra-musical dimensions without fixing itself into a mere reproduction of these foreigns elements. Since the abolition of tonal music, composition tried to invent new forces to organize the form, liberating itself from old musical structures and new abstracts and generals constraints of writing. Indeed, György Kurtág and Helmut Lachenmann, whom nothing seems apparently bring togheter, work on this problem without avoiding the contradictions that this question generates. The « tone » of their music, the qualitiy of a voice as it deploies into the musical texture, is a matter of a gesture that guides the temporal development of musical form. The notion of « gesture », as we known it, appears then as a tool that allow a sensitive approach to this dimension of music

Full textThe titles of Richard Strauss's symphonic poems and of Gustav Mahler's symphonies refer many times to literary works. For a long time this fact has sustained a debate on the programme music generally, and more particularly on the programmatic aspect of Mahler's symphonies. Now before using the term "programme music", one should wonder about the link that can be aesthetically established between a musical work and a literary work. This study shows that one should not consider programme music as a simple translation of literary works into sounds, but rather as criticism, as Schlegel defines it, of the latter. Based on Liszt's theory about programme music (expounded in his essay on Berlioz's "Harold"), our study highlights this critical relation and applies it to the symphonic poems by Strauss. It makes it possible to offer another interpretation of the musical form and to transcend the traditional categories of the sonata form. In Mahler's symphonies the relation between music and literature is of an "analogical" nature: Mahler does not criticise the literary work - indeed the latter does not function as a subject for him - but through the titles (or subtitles) of his symphonies he reveals some stylistic or more generally some aesthetic correspondence between his own composition and the literary work he alludes to. Thus the numerous references to Jean Paul, Hoffmann or the "Wunderhorn" in his first symphonies only betray the fact that Mahler imitated the fantastic style of these authors. Our study shows how Mahler takes up these literary devices and uses them in his music. At the same time we have been able to demonstrate that the fantastic style of Mahler's symphonies is the means which enables the composer to create a stylistic continuity between the sung movements and the purely instrumental movements of his symphonies
Elthes, Agnès. "Théâtre et musique dans les tragédies de Racine." Paris, INALCO, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991INAL0009.
Full textIn the tragedies of Racine, the paraverbal elements of representation are involved in the poetic text. The elements referring to the scenic movements, to the mimic and to the setting are in a dynamic relationship with the text. At the same time, the art of Racine is inseparably connected with the music. In order to prove the existence of relations between Racine and the music, the researcher has to overcome the traditional disciplinary limits of the analyse of a literary work. By analysing the musical partition, "Idylle sur la paix" of Racine / Lully it can be regarded as an opera prologue. The phenomena having musical reference in the composition of the time are polyphony, counterpoint and variation. The most compound acoustic effect in the poetic text combining signification, phonics, rhythm and iconography, is the echo-technique. In "Berenice", being the most classical tragedy written by Racine, it is possible to demonstrate abstract and concrete relations with the music

Full textThe specific of Milhaud’s ballets derives from their unity of form using folk themes and from the variety of harmony, rhythm and orchestration. The evocation of the regularity of form and simplicity of folklore and of the traditional themes proceed from a neoclassical and nonromantic tendency. This neoclassicism in Milhaud’s ballet music is the foundation of its artistic value with its flowing unification of the music with the concepts of his contemporary surrealist and cubist painters, with neoclassical dance, with the circus, and even with the art of acrobatic dance

Full textBeyond his large production in the field of sacred vocal music, Henrich Schutz (1585-1672), who was during fitty years Kapellmeister at the court of the elector of Saxony, also played a large role at the turning point of the German-secular music and the German literature. He was helped by many great authors, in particular by Silesian poet and theorician Martin Opitz, in his attempts to establish and develop in Germany, on texts in German language, the vocal music kinds that ensured the success of Italian musicians: madrigals and opera. Despite the relative failure of his attempts, imputable to factors as inherent to the project itself (particularly of literacy order) as cyclical (historical, political and sociological), they appear as the expression of a particularly developed German identity consciousness. It is less in the evolution of the German vocal music than in the evolution of the literature that the influences of this "cultural patriotism", resulting from an interdisciplinary work of reflection, asserted without aggressivity and only aiming at helping Germany to fill the gap that existed with its neighbours, were the most sensitive

Full textThe musical creativity of the interpreter is considered here though the study of a work soloist exit of the repertory for flute: "Sequenza I" of L. Berio. In reference to the field of musical aestheticism, cognitive psychology and psychoanalysis, it is a question of highlighting creative emergences of the interpreter, during his translation of work, at the "present moment" (concept from D. N. Stern). For that, a comparative approach of the two original versions (1958 and 1992) of the type-setter is proposed, accompanied by a musical analysis of the interpretation of three recordings carried out on CD and made by professionals flutists used to a contemporary musical language. Through the study of this major work from the flute repertory, Berio "Sequenza I", we will look for the musical creativity of these three performers at the "present moment", by means of an experimental protocol, through a comparative approach of those two original versions

Full textThe present dissertation aims to contribute to the debate on Historically Informed Performance: setting aside thequestion of a particular piece’s global pronunciation, HIP ignores the rhetorical dimension of musical interpretation,and it is this specific gap we would fill. Based on a reflection on the rhetorical pronuntiatio theory, and leaning on theprinciples of interpretation as exposed in several selected treaties (C.P.E. Bach, Quantz, Mattheson, L. Mozart), ourreflection leads us to propose what we call the Rhetorically Informed Performance. The RIP is defined as a musicalpractice that grounds its interpretative decisions on information contained in the corpus of rhetorical and oratorial artskill treaties, as well as in public-speaking manuals and methods of vocal and instrumental interpretation. Thepronuntiatio is considered in both its visual and auditory aspects (corpus and vox), its four virtues (puritas, perspicuitas,ornatus and aptum), and their respective vices and licenses. Our intention is to put together a group of adjustablerhetorical strategies enabling the analysis to contribute to the interpretation in terms of the generation of ideas, theenrichment and channeling of imagination, and the inscription of the appropriate movement and energy into thesonorous reproduction. This musical pronunciation theory is applied to four pieces (Händel, Montéclair, Telemann,C.P.E. Bach): these examples of interpretation programs allow us to put forward the idea that the music of thatperiod was in its essence eloquent, and that its interpretation cannot become eloquent again without returning torhetorical intelligence and its principles of pronuntiatio

Full textThe influence of neo-positivism on 20th century western music composers answers the issue of conceptual continuity in music modernism. Born of the Viennese spirit, neo-positivism influenced the two inventors of «twelve-tone music », Arnold Schoenberg and Joseph-Matthias Hauer. The concept of « compositional system »which was taken literally by American modernists such as Charles Seeger and Henry Cowell, as allowed them to break with musical and aesthetic tradition in Europe. It then gave birth to different axiomatic « systems »influenced by Viennese neo-positivism, such as Joseph Schillinger’s composition system or such as what can be heard in John Cage’s first pieces. Neo-positivism returned to Europe via American cybernetics, sociology and linguistics to be vested again, in music, in Pierre Boulez’s serialism, in Iannis Xenakis physicalism, in Luciano Berio’s « instrumental positivism » and in Pierre Barbaud’s algorithmic music

Full textThis thesis studies the images of music such as metaphors in the complete poetical works of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley and Keats. It endeavours to examine the occurrences of ail music-related words in order to understand the identity-alterity relationship between poetry and music in the romantic era. The two arts, that develop in time, were called the Sister Arts by the Augustans, and their common history was placed under scrutiny by the Romantics, who saw music as a real language that suggests a transcendence that man can only get a glimpse of. At the same time, sentient man developed a new relationship with the surrounding world, and poets dreamt of music as a model for expression and the Knowledge of truth and universal harmony; but it also served as a foil because of its ambiguity, nonreferentiality and ephemerality. Music could also be considered as the heir to the rhetorical tradition, and a Derridian pharmakon that only charms the ear and means nothing. The increasing significance of instrumental music at the turn of the century opened up the door, like silence, to a marvelous world of meditation, remembrance, imagination, ail conducive to poetic creativity. Music's talent for putting ideas into motion was recognised as its distinctive feature as Other. Thus poets acknowledged music as pure, elaborate sound, and turned to lyricism, that frontier between poetry and music where the former attempts to reclaim the old unity in a romantic, nostalgic move towards the golden age of song it lost trace of when it entered the realm of the written text
Sorbier-Rawls, Julie. "La musique dans la prose narrative moderniste espagnole." Thesis, Montpellier 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010MON30038/document.
Full textModernist literature is by essence musical. It is meant to arouse the reader’s senses: the use of music, a suggestive art by excellence, creates the allusion. How can one insert music in literature? Stéphane Mallarmé suggests to precede the effects of music by redefining it from its origin. If the art of music is naturally expressed through a poem, how about through prose? In Spain, Ramón María del Valle-Inclán offers a prime example of musical prose in his Sonatas. Is this all that can be expected? Has there been no other echo of Mallarmé’s project in Spanish prose? Certainly the intention to do so exists; histories of literature confirm this intention but nothing more. Our work is going to be twofold: first we need to find Spanish modernist prose works, and then analyze these works through the prism of music in order to understand how the fusion of these arts (music and prose) is realized. The analysis reveals that the music of the prose, sometimes imperceptible, sharpens the senses and makes the reader more sensitive to the elegance, to the rhythm and the phrasing of a syntagm. In other words, the inner music paves the way to the ineffable. The poet’s role in society is described within this project. He presents himself as a modern times priest. Yet the myth to which he tries to subscribe lacks substance: sensitive to the realities of his time, in search of an audience keen on naturalism, the Spanish writer is not fully implicated. His prose is hesitant, often corny: this explains why it has passed unnoticed in history
Schaub, Stéphan. "Formalisation mathématique, univers compositionnels et interprétation analytique chez Milton Babbitt et Iannis Xenakis." Thesis, Paris 4, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA040242.
Full textThis thesis explores the links between mathematical formalization, its implications in compositional practices, and its repercussions on the analytical interpretation. It is based on the study of Milton Babbitt’s Semi-Simple Variations for piano (1956), on Iannis Xenakis’ Nomos Alpha for violoncello (1965-1966), and on a selection of theoretical texts published by the composers around these two works. The argumentation is divided in three parts. The first studies the theoretical texts with the aim of extracting from them the components that are formalized (or result form formalization) as well as the indices pointing towards their implications in the compositional practices. These are then put into sharper view in the second part, through the reconstruction of the traces left by these components in the musical texts (“theoretical models”). This reconstruction is first conducted on the two main works considered before other works are considered. The theoretical models of two of them had until now remained unknown: Three Compositions for Piano by Babbitt (1947-1948) ; and Akrata for 16 winds (1964-1965) by Xenakis. The third part submits Semi-Simple Variations and Nomos Alpha to two analyses: one is aimed at the theoretical models, directly linked to the formal universes, the second examines the musical surfaces and at the way they articulate and/or contradict the elements observed in the models. While underlining the fundamental - though very different - role played by mathematical formalization in Babbitt’s and Xenakis’ compositional universes, the distance that separates the theoretical models from the musical surfaces brings one to consider the role of the former within the analytical enterprise as essentially heuristic. As traces of the composer’s thinking, the theoretical models may however suggest new approaches and deserve to be fully integrated in future research

Full textThe application of algebraic mtehods to music is a relatively new approach in musical research. We analyse the problem of the emergence of algebraic structures in music by looking at three main figures of twentieth-century theorists/composers : Milton Babbit, Iannis Xenakis and Anatol Vieru. Some of their music-theoretic contructions are the starting point for a discussion on the notion of music theory in some analytical as well ax compositional applications. This work discusses an algebraic formalisation of Set Theory and its transformational developments from a perspective which includes an analysis of the relationships between American tradition and a formalised European approach. The concepts elaborated in this work lead to a definition of the place of a computational approach in musicology and open several philosophical questions on the relationships between mathematics and music

Full textCette thèse porte sur la recherche-création ayant menée à l’apprentissage et l’exécution publique de Diário, œuvre pour piano du compositeur brésilien Heber Schuenemann (né en 1971). Dans ce cycle, qui comprend 23 courtes pièces, le compositeur explore la notion de « hasard », propre à la musique aléatoire. Il utilise également des techniques de composition s’apparentant au sérialisme et au minimalisme. Après avoir présenté les principales caractéristiques des courants musicaux propres à l’œuvre, la chercheuse-pianiste procède à une analyse de l’œuvre, décrivant la structure et les techniques de composition de chaque pièce. Par la suite, elle décrit sa propre démarche d’interprète – du déchiffrage de l’œuvre à sa prestation publique et à son enregistrement en studio – et elle commente son expérience à la lumière de la littérature pertinente. Sont abordées, notamment, les difficultés inhérentes au déchiffrage d’une œuvre atonale et les diverses étapes menant à l’identification de ses éléments structuraux; les difficultés relatives à la technique pianistique; l’importance du regroupement d’unités et de l’acquisition d’automatismes corporels; la définition de l’image artistique. Des pistes pédagogiques favorisant l’enseignement et l’apprentissage de l’œuvre sont également présentées.

Thereafter, the author describes her own approach of an interpreter, from the deciphering the work to its public performance and studio recording, commenting on her experience in the light of the relevant literature. In particular, the author examines the difficulties in deciphering an atonal work and various steps leading to the identification of its structural elements. In addition, the author focuses on the definition of the artistic image, the difficulties related to the piano technique, the combination of units, and the acquisition of automatisms.

Full text« For me nothing is more important than music », Giono wrote. However, the writer was no musician and refused to learn music theory, even though his musical sensitivity became an enlightened passion as time went by. The presence of music in his work logically follows a parallel path to that of music in Giono’s life. Beyond its mere presence as a theme, easily perceptible in his early writings, and apart from its argumentative, narrative and poetic roles that are presented to the writer, music progressively becomes essential as a source of inspiration and even a model of aesthetics for the writer. Against all odds, when the theme of music tends to disappear, the novel becomes or seeks to become truly musical in Giono’s work. Besides, music is an opportunity to ponder over the paramount tensions in his work : between an aspiration to nature and the necessity of culture, between very personal musical tastes and the discovery of music through literary mentors, between fictional modernity and a predilection for past models, between a quest for defined musical structures and their biased transposition. Giono offered a singular answer to the question of the impossible translation of the language of music in words, and this question has tormented countless writers. Paradoxically, Giono’s independence from music had a conspicuous effect on his style and is therefore relevant to music and literary studies as well as the history of 20th century literature and its transformations

Full textEight to ten tragédies en musique, written between 1713 and 1733, are credited to the Abbé Pellegrin. He worked with well-known composers such as Destouches, Desmarest, Montéclair and Rameau. The descriptive approach adopted in this work is an attempt to break away from former, overtly judgmental stylistic analyses, as weIl as systematic comparisons with seventeenth-century French theatre. The study of Pellegrin's elaborate variations on elocutio draws attention to speech processes which anticipate on codified lyric forms. His achievements regarding inventio and dispositio are no less remarkable, given the combination of various sources and intertextual games, and the constant striving to reconcile conformity with discreet innovations. The libretto of the tragédies en musique, with its polymorphous quality, brings into question the genre of the lyric poem. In this fluctuating frame, Simon-Joseph Pellegrin is distinguished by a form of craftsmanship that is both conformist and virtuoso
