Full textKirilov, Kalin Stanchev. "Harmony in Bulgarian Music." Thesis, University of Oregon, 2007. http://hdl.handle.net/1794/13533.
Full textThis study focuses on the development of harmonic vocabulary in Bulgarian music. It analyzes the incorporation of harmony in village music from the 1930s to the 1990s, "wedding music" from the 1970s to 2000, and choral and instrumental arrangements (obrabotki, creations of the socialist period (1944-1989). This study also explains that terms which are frequently applied to Bulgarian music, such as "westernization," "socialist-style arrangements," or "Middle Eastern influence," depict sophisticated networks of codified and non-codified rules for harmonization which to date have not been studied. The dissertation classifies different approaches to harmony in the above mentioned styles and situates them in historical and cultural contexts, examines existing principles for harmonizing and arranging Bulgarian music, and establishes new systems for analysis. It suggests that the harmonic language of the layers of Bulgarian music is based upon systems of rules which can be approached and analyzed using Western music theory. TV1y analysis of harmony in Bulgarian music focuses on representative examples of each style discussed. These selections are taken from the most popular and well-received compositions available in the repertoire.

Full textVOORWOORD Die twintigste eeu beleef 'n besondere belangstelling in die outentieke uitvoering van ou musiek en dit is 'n studieveld wat reeds uitgebreid nagevors is. Desondanks bestaan daar steeds baie vraagstukke aangaande sekere uitvoeringspraktyke en styltipes en hoe ouer die musiek, hoe meer problematies word 'n outentieke uitvoering, veral as gevolg van die groot verskille tussen die moderne en ou instrumente, die speeltegnieke en die dikwels ontoereikende notasie. Die teoriee wat die twintigste eeuse musici aangaande die uitvoeringspraktyke geformuleer het, is hoofsaaklik gebaseer op ou geskrifte, verhandelinge en onderrigboeke uit die onderskeie styltydperke. Daar bestaan baie teenstrydighede tussen hierdie teoriee, veral met betrekking tot die musiek van die Barokperiode. Die uitvoering van musiek van die Klassieke en veral die Romantiese periodes is minder problematies en die redes hiervoor is hoofsaaklik die volgende: Die notasiesisteem het reeds tydens die Hoog-Klassieke tydperk tot sy huidige vorm ontwikkel. Verder het musiekkritiek en -geskiedskrywing segert die agtiende eeu toenemend meer aandag geniet en bestaan daar dus meer inligting aangaande uitvoeringspraktyke. Ten spyte daarvan dat hierdie na vorsing reeds dekades gelede begin het, is daar steeds groot onkunde daaromtrent en word daar dikwels min aandag gegee aan die outentieke uitvoering van ou musiek. Hierdie studie is 'n paging om die navorsing wat reeds gedoen is krities te ondersoek en 'n moontlike samevatting daarvan te gee.
