Abstract:
The purpose of the article is to identify the musical genre features and its development prospects in Ukraine in terms of intonation practices. Methods. The article is based on a comprehensive analysis of the temporal and spatial characteristics of the musical language used in musicals, which allows determining the nature of the intonation practices involved, identifying what is common and what is different in works of this genre. Results. The article analyses the characteristic musical language features of early film musicals of the USA and the UK, early musicals of the USSR and musicals of Ukrainian authors of the independence period. Based on the analysis, the author concluded that despite the stylistic and even genre diversity of musicals of different historical periods and national schools, it is essential for composers involved in writing music for musicals to choose intonation practices that encourage its easy, hedonistic perception. For early American musicals, this choice implies using mostly major tonalities and abundant orchestrations involving elements of jazz. The emergence of rock and pop music in the 1960s changed the intonation palette of musicals, determining composers towards the intonation space of pop and rock music and later dance electronics. The intensification of stylistic searches of Ukrainian authors in this genre, mainly the focus on intonation practices of contemporary Ukrainian rock and dance electronics, shows that the potential of this genre in Ukraine has not yet been exhausted. The scientific novelty lies in studying the problem of intonation specificity of the musical, analysing “temporal and spatial” parameters such as harmonic, tempo and rhythm, genre and stylistic ties.

Abstract:
This paper analyses experiential aspects of teaching music in the context of the well-being education and creating a stimulating environment for learning, development and psychological well-being of lower-grade pupils. The analysis involves music classes held with fourth-graders who were expected to connect a literary text with a corresponding musical composition they listened to. The research was conducted in the primary school “17. Oktobarˮ in Jagodina in September 2023. In accordance with the research topic which encompasses pupils’ achievement in two areas, musical creativity and listening to music, the content analysis was applied. The research results were analysed in relation to the choice of musical composition which pupils considered appropriate for the poem “Three Blind Miceˮ by Peđa Trajković. The qualitative analysis dealt with pupils’ choice of the musical characteristics based on which they connected the given composition with the poem. It can be concluded that pupils’ creative activities, a positive pedagogical atmosphere, open approach and constructive feedback contribute to the development of a pupil’s musical perception and better achievements in the area of listening to music.

Abstract:
This special issue of Studies in Musical Theatre examines the role of dance in musical theatre from a variety of perspectives. Given the scholarly turn from textual analysis to performance analysis, even studying musicals without extensive dance per se can benefit from understanding how movement shapes meaning. The introduction below explains some key themes that have emerged in the six articles that follow. One is the question of genre: what exactly is musical theatre dance? Another is auteurship: what is the role of the choreographer in shaping musicals? A third is technology, which reminds readers that choreography extends beyond human bodies. Finally, the articles all consider questions of methodology and history – how do we best study musical theatre? While there are several other areas of potential inquiry not covered in these six articles, this special issue, the first in the field to focus on dance in musical theatre, aims to help define and cohere an important subfield.

Abstract:
Abstract The individual most responsible for bringing the American musical to the Viennese stage was Marcel Prawy (1911–2003). Born into a Jewish Austro-Hungarian noble family, Prawy moved to the US in the late 1930s. While his first love was opera, he also developed an appreciation for the Broadway musical. He returned to Vienna after World War II and produced musical revues in local theaters that included showtunes. Upon becoming a dramaturge at the Vienna Volksoper in 1955, he began overseeing productions of American musical theater, which were among some of the earliest productions of American musicals on the European continent. The article reviews archival documents at the Prawy archive, housed at the Wienbibliothek, to better understand Prawy’s early efforts to bring American musical theater to the Viennese stage. The focus will be on the two earliest musicals Prawy produced, Kiss Me, Kate and Wonderful Town. The analysis will consider how Prawy packaged, promoted, and “sold” the American musical to his Viennese audience. A close reading of some of Prawy’s translations of libretti will be part of the analysis, revealing interesting insights into how Americans and American culture may have been viewed by the Viennese audience.

Abstract:
Musical theatre has a complex relationship with ageing (and especially female ageing). As youth has always been at the forefront of musicals, essentialist approaches to ageing in articulation and enactment of ageing musical characters often lead to aesthetic peripheries and creative stagnation. Aiming for a deeper understanding of how female ageing vocalities are perceived, dramaturged and performed in musical theatre, the article takes under consideration viewpoints from ‘outsiders’/ageing performers who work ‘at the centre’ of the musical theatre industry (West End and Broadway).Through a close analysis of two ageing female characters (Madame Armfeldt and Grandma) in the musicals A Little Night Music and Billy Elliot, this article discusses and critiques preconceptions of ageing in the dramaturgy and performance of these roles, and it argues that musicals frequently fail to give agency to the voice of their ageing women.

Abstract:
L'objectif de cette thèse est de fournir des modèles mathématiques pour la compréhension et l'analyse de représentations symboliques de la musique. En particulier, cette thèse se décompose en trois parties : comment découvrir les motifs musicaux~? Comment ces motifs sont-ils organisés avec la structure musicale ? Et finalement, comment ces motifs sont-ils joués durant la performance musicale ? Tout d'abord, cette thèse se focalise sur la tâche de découverte de motifs musicaux. Les travaux antérieurs permettent de distinguer deux approches : l'approche séquentielle et l'approche multidimensionnelle. Nous proposons une méthode pour développer l'approche multidimensionnelle. En particulier, nous montrons que la théorie de la morphologie mathématique s'adapte très bien à l'approche géométrique, ce qui permet d'obtenir des résultats mathématiques pour la découverte de motifs musicaux. En seconde partie, nous nous intéressons à la tâche de segmentation musicale. Nous proposons deux méthodes, l'une reposant sur l'homogénéité et l'autre sur la répétition, qui sont les deux caractéristiques principales à étudier pour découvrir la segmentation d'une pièce. La méthode reposant sur l'homogénéité utilise les filtres morphologiques pour détecter les blocs sur la diagonale de la matrice d'auto-similarité. Nous développons aussi une méthode reposant sur la quasi-répétition sans intersection pour obtenir la segmentation hiérarchique d'une pièce. La troisième partie est dédiée à l'analyse de la performance musicale avec des outils informatiques. Nous nous focalisons sur la base de données MazurkaBL qui contient des annotations de plus de 2000 performances de 46 Mazurkas de Chopin. Pour analyser cette base de données, nous proposons de représenter une performance musicale dans un 2-simplexe, ce qui permet de caractériser et d'interpréter l'expressivité musicale d'une performance. Ensuite, nous montrons comment la théorie du transport optimal peut être utilisée pour comparer des performances musicales<br>The purpose of this thesis is to provide mathematical models for the understanding and analysis of symbolic representations of music. In particular, this thesis is divided into three parts. How to discover musical patterns? How are these patterns organized within the musical structure? And finally, how are these patterns performed during musical performance? First, this thesis focuses on the musical pattern discovery task. Previous work identifies two different approaches: the sequential and geometric approaches. We propose a method for each of these two approaches. We propose a method for developing the multidimensional approach. In particular, we show that the theory of mathematical morphology is well suited to the geometrical approach, making it possible to obtain mathematical results for the discovery of musical patterns. In the second part, we focus on the musical segmentation task. We propose a method based on homogeneity and one based on repetition, which are the two main features to be studied in order to discover the segmentation of a piece. The homogeneity-based method uses morphological filters to detect blocks on the diagonal of the self-similarity matrix. We also develop a method based on almost repetition without overlaps to obtain the hierarchical segmentation of a musical piece. The third part is dedicated to the computational models for music performances. We focus on the MazurkaBL dataset, which contains annotations of over 2000 recorded performances of 46 Chopin Mazurkas. To analyze this dataset, we propose to represent a musical performance in a 2-simplex, allowing us to characterize and interpret the expressivity of a performance. Then, we show how the theory of optimal transport can be used to compare musical performances

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, Program in Media Arts and Sciences, 2005.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 93-96).<br>Listening to music and perceiving its structure is a fairly easy task for humans, even for listeners without formal musical training. For example, we can notice changes of notes, chords and keys, though we might not be able to name them (segmentation based on tonality and harmonic analysis); we can parse a musical piece into phrases or sections (segmentation based on recurrent structural analysis); we can identify and memorize the main themes or the catchiest parts - hooks - of a piece (summarization based on hook analysis); we can detect the most informative musical parts for making certain judgments (detection of salience for classification). However, building computational models to mimic these processes is a hard problem. Furthermore, the amount of digital music that has been generated and stored has already become unfathomable. How to efficiently store and retrieve the digital content is an important real-world problem. This dissertation presents our research on automatic music segmentation, summarization and classification using a framework combining music cognition, machine learning and signal processing. It will inquire scientifically into the nature of human perception of music, and offer a practical solution to difficult problems of machine intelligence for automatic musical content analysis and pattern discovery.<br>(cont.) Specifically, for segmentation, an HMM-based approach will be used for key change and chord change detection; and a method for detecting the self-similarity property using approximate pattern matching will be presented for recurrent structural analysis. For summarization, we will investigate the locations where the catchiest parts of a musical piece normally appear and develop strategies for automatically generating music thumbnails based on this analysis. For musical salience detection, we will examine methods for weighting the importance of musical segments based on the confidence of classification. Two classification techniques and their definitions of confidence will be explored. The effectiveness of all our methods will be demonstrated by quantitative evaluations and/or human experiments on complex real-world musical stimuli.<br>by Wei Chai.<br>Ph.D.

Abstract:
<p>This thesis explores the potential advantages of incorporating color into musical analysis and musical concepts into art analysis. Music and the visual arts are vehicles of expression using two different perceptible waves as a medium. By comparing the physical attributes of these waves, analogous terminology between the disciplines is highlighted. Terminology parallels allow us to identify relationships between musical ideas and sonorities and color theory concepts and color harmonies. Cross-modal relationships have been explored in synesthetically inspired works in both disciplines. In Scriabin?s Prometheus, the luce presents the colors to the audience. These colors emphasize the harmonic, formal, and mystical elements of the piece. Messiaen?s Des Canyons aux etoiles features chords that were specifically included to paint the colors of the places he had visited. Sonata No. 6 by Ciurlionis is a painting that includes the three major sections of sonata form with the color changes to match. Symphony verte by Valensi includes complex structural variations and the various shading and saturations found in the timbral diversity of a symphony. Accounting for the bimodal aspects of these pieces provides us with a more concise holistic understanding of the artist?s purpose.

Abstract:
The kind of interaction occurring between a conductor and musicians while performing a musical piece together is an unique instance of human non-verbal communication. This Musical Production Process (MPP) thus provides an interesting area of research, both from a communication perspective and by its own right. The long term goal of this project is to model the MPP with machine learning methods, for which large amounts of data are required. Since the amount of data available to this master thesis stems from a single recording session (collected at KTH May 2014) a direct modeling of the MPP is unfeasible. As such the thesis can instead be considered as a pilot project which examines pre-requisites for modeling of the MPP. The main aim of the thesis is to investigate how musical expression can be captured in the modeling of the MPP. Two experiments, as well as a theoretical investigation of the MPP, are performed to this end. The first experiment consists of a HMM classification of sound represented by expressive tone parameters extracted by the CUEX algorithm, and labeled by four emotions. This experiment complements the previous classification of conducting gesture in GP-LVM representation performed by Kelly Karipidou on the same data set. The result of the classification implicitly proves that expression has been transferred from conductor to musicians. As the first experiment considers expression over the musical piece as a whole, the second experiment investigates the transfer of expression from conductor to musician on a local level. To this end local representations of the sound and conducting gesture are extracted, the separability of the four emotions are calculated for both representations by use of the Bhattacharyya distance and the results are compared in search for correlation. Some indications of correlation between the representations of sound and gesture are found. The conclusion is nevertheless that the utilized representations of conducting gesture do not capture musical expression to a sufficient extent.<br>Interaktionen mellan en dirigent och musiker under ett musikframförande är en unik instans av mänsklig icke-verbal kommunikation. Denna “musikproduktionsprocess” (MPP) utgör därför ett intressant forskningsområde, både ur ett kommunikationsperspektiv såväl som i sin egen rätt. Det långsiktiga målet med detta projekt är att modellera MPP:n med maskininlärningsmetoder, vilket skulle kräva stora mängder data. Då den tillgängliga datamängden härstammar från ett enstaka inspelningstillfälle (KTH, maj 2014) är en direkt modellering av MPP:n inom detta examensarbete ej möjlig. Arbetet bör istället betraktas som ett pilotprojekt som undersöker förutsättningar för att modellera MPP:n. Huvudfokuset för detta examensarbete är att undersöka hur musikaliskt uttryck kan fångas i modelleringen av MPP:n. Två experiment och en teoretisk utredning av MPP:n utförs i detta syfte. Det första experimentet utgörs av HMM-klassificering av ljud, representerat av expressiva tonparametrar framtagna genom CUEX-algoritmen och uppmärkt med fyra olika känslor. Detta experiment kompletterar den tidigare genomförda klassificeringen av dirigentrörelse i en GP-LVM representation av Kelly Karipidou på samma datamängd. Resultatet av klassificeringen bevisar implicit att musikaliskt uttryck överförts från dirigent till musiker. Då det första experimentet undersöker musikaliskt uttrycköver musikstycket i sin helhet är målet för det andra experimentet att undersöka överföringen av musikaliskt uttryck från dirigent till musiker på en lokal nivå. För detta syfte tas lokala representationer för ljud och dirigentrörelse fram, separabiliteten mellan de fyra känslorna kalkyleras via Bhattacharyya-avståndet och resultaten jämförs på jakt efter korrelation. Vissa indikationer på korrelation mellan representationerna för ljud och dirigentrörelse kan iakttas. Slutsatsen är dock att de tillämpade representationerna för dirigentrörelse inte fångar musikaliskt uttryck i tillräckligt hög grad.

Abstract:
The lived experiences of professional orchestral musicians are under-­‐researched by scholars in both music and psychology, who are interested in the world of the professional orchestra and the careers of classical musicians. Framed within a Social Constructionist paradigm, the research in this thesis is concerned with investigating the subjective meanings and individual experiences of a group of ten classical orchestral musicians. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was the methodological framework chosen to design and analyse a set of open-­‐ ended interviews with the musicians, which allowed reflexivity and flexibility throughout the research process. Three superordinate themes were identified from a close reading and IPA analysis of the interview data: ‘Musical Foundations’, ‘Struggle: “The Never Ending Quest”’ and ‘Thank You For The Music’. ‘Musical Foundations’ examines the process of musical identity construction for the ten participants, from its early beginnings in childhood, through adolescence and their time in the professional orchestra. Different facets of musical identity construction are outlined and becoming an orchestral musician is viewed as essentially a social process shaped by social interactions, building on a sense of possessing certain ‘innate’ characteristics. ‘Struggle: ‘The Never Ending Quest”’ illustrates the challenges the musicians encountered within the profession and the impact that being a professional orchestral musician had on other aspects of their lives (e.g. personal and social). The fear and conflict the ten musicians experienced is outlined and how the musicians coped and ‘survived’ within the professional orchestra is demonstrated. In addition, the central importance of the identity of ‘orchestral musician’ within the participants’ lives is illustrated. The last theme, ‘Thank You For The Music’ outlines why the musicians continued within the profession despite the struggles summarised by the previous theme. This chapter highlights the autonomy and control the musicians felt they gained within their orchestras and the physiological and emotional connections they experienced with both the profession and classic music itself. Common to all three superordinate themes is their reported power struggle between the musicians and the orchestra, and between the individual and the collective. Another common issue was how central the identity of ‘orchestral musician’ was for all participants, impacting all aspects of their lives. The professional musicians constructed, negotiated and maintained their musical identities in accordance with both their own expectations and those of the classical music genre itself. The research in this thesis raises awareness of the importance of the orchestral musician identity in the musicians’ lives and how an understanding of this can help gain an insight into other aspects of the participants’ lives. Recommendations are made for further research regarding: the lived experiences of classical music students, investigation of current teaching practices in conservatoires and further exploration of the professional structures within an orchestra.

Abstract:
The Swiss musician and composer Nik Bärtsch personifies a current form of musical minimalism similar to that developed by the Swiss saxophonist and composer Don Li in the 1990s. With his formation Ronin, with which he has been giving concerts worldwide since 2001, Bärtsch develops repetitive processes that are unthinkable without the model of minimal music; but he deliberately avoids this term so as not to evoke the continuation of a tradition on which one is resting, as it were. Bärtsch’s music, which he characteristically calls ‘Zen Funk’ or ‘Ritual Groove Music’, avoiding the term ‘minimal music’ revolves around the aesthetic and compositional values of reduction, repetition, pattern and module. Bärtsch focuses on the concept of reduction which he regards as a philosophically connoted guideline, which is very decidedly reflected in his music. Bärtsch’s music can also be described as a combination of complex rhythmic patterns. The fact that (the pianist) Bärtsch presents his music primarily in the band line-up: piano, electric bass, bass clarinet and drums, is to be understood less as a localisation in the genre of ‘popular’ music, but rather as an expression of an extremely collective way of playing. In this chapter, Bärtsch’s music will be presented analytically in order to substantiate the thesis that a specific further development of musical minimalism has been established here, especially in the aesthetic sense of repetition as a strategy for making musical depth perceptible.

Abstract:
This paper exhibits a method to improve the quality of musical instruments with the application of two Multi-Criteria Decision Making models, Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) in a Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Environment. A fuzzy analysis approach was also included to accommodate qualitative data in music. The QFD was constructed with literature based on optimizing the manufacture of musical instruments. At this phase of the research, the paper focused on the physical parameters and perceived qualities of musical instruments. The proposed modified QFD was developed to identify the product features chosen by the market and aid the manufacture of musical instruments. A standard QFD recognized and scored factors to develop and manufacture musical instruments. It accommodated some core engineering variables for the musical instruments but overlooked some feature stakeholder needs. For example, the musician may not have 100% gratification while playing the instrument as the manufacturer fails to capture acoustic features to psychologically satisfy the musician’s audience. Using fuzzy logic, QFD and MCDM increased the model performance by expanding the data set. It offered the manufacturer of musical instruments a mode to capture and analyse behavioural linguistic data covering more customer requirements. Hence, the approach increased the range to correlate the physical features and psychological behaviours of musical instruments. It allowed non-technical persons to provide an improved form of reliable information. This modified QFD can also be applied to develop other products involving linguistic data.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce an original approach to computerized music analysis within the graphical computer-assisted composition environment called PWGL. Our aim is to facilitate the realtime analysis of interactive scores written in common Western music notation. To this end, we have developed a novel library that allows us to analyze scores realized with the help of ENP (the graphical music notation module of PWGL), and to visualize the results of the analysis in realtime. ENP is extended to support the display of supplementary information that can be drawn on top of the score as an overlay. The analysis backend is realized with the help of our builtin musical scripting language based on pattern matching. The analysis results are presented directly as a part of the original score leveraging the extensible and interactive visualization capabilities of ENP. In this paper we describe the current state of the library and present, as a case study, a fully functional application allowing for the realtime analysis and display of voice leading errors according to the counterpoint rules developed mainly in the Renaissance and Baroque eras.

Abstract:
This paper presents a comparative analysis on two artificial neural networks (with different architectures) for the task of tempo estimation. For this purpose, it also proposes the modeling, training and evaluation of a B-RNN (Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Network) model capable of estimating tempo in bpm (beats per minutes) of musical pieces, without using external auxiliary modules. An extensive database (12,333 pieces in total) was curated to conduct a quantitative and qualitative analysis over the experiment. Percussion-only tracks were also included inthe dataset. The performance of the B-RNN is compared to that of state-of-the-art models. For further comparison, a state-of-the-art CNN was also retrained with the same datasets used for the B-RNN training. Evaluation results for each model and datasets are presented and discussed, as well as observations and ideas for future research. Tempo estimation was more accurate for the percussion-only dataset, suggesting that the estimation can be more accurate for percussion-only tracks, although further experiments (with more of such datasets) should be made to gather stronger evidence.

Abstract:
Music Information Retrieval (MIR) methods extracts from music high-level information like classification, musical feature extraction, song similarity and tonality. Musical genre is one of the orthodox methods of describing musical content and a significant part of MIR. At present, few MIR research has been done on Nigerian songs. So, this paper proposed to build a genre classification model based on Mel Spectrogram of audio songs. The process first converts ORIN audio dataset to Mel Spectrogram and extract numerical information from it using the Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) and apply machine learning (ML) models to accurately categorize the songs into different genres of Apala, Fuji, Juju, Highlife and Waka. Support Vector Machine (SVM) with 4 different kernels, with 10- cross validation method were applied and assessed based on Accuracy and Receiver operating characteristics (ROC).

In this work, we extend a standard and successful acoustic feature extraction approach based on trigger selection to examples of Brazilian Bossa-Nova and Heitor Villa Lobos music pieces. Additionally, we propose and implement a computational framework to disclose whether all the acoustic features extracted are statistically relevant, that is, non-redundant. Our experimental results show that not all these well-known features might be necessary for trigger selection, given the multivariate statistical redundancy found, which associated all these acoustic features into 3 clusters with different factor loadings and, consequently, representatives.

Full text
Abstract:
The sonority is one of the definitions widely used by musicians when trying to define the color or timbral balances associated with individual or groups of instruments , such as for ensembles or orchestras. This definition obeys to subjective musical parameters associated with "color balance", "sound amplitude", among others. In the field of musical acoustics, it is well known that the sounds coming from musical instruments depend on several acoustic physical parameters such as Intensity, Frequency, and the number of harmonics, as well as other aspects including, association with its manufacturing process, such as geometry and materials used for construction. This work presents, from a spectral analysis of the timbre with the use of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Spectral Power Density (DPE) and Spectrograms, the characterization of the subjective concept of "sonority", for some instruments of the Woodwind family: Piccolo flute, transverse flute, clarinet and oboe. It is concluded that the stage of sound evolution as the attack and sustenance, allow the establishment of harmonics whose powers are fundamental to define the timbric "color" associated with each instrument, as well as the number of harmonics allowed to establish parameters of "sound identity", useful for the generation of a coefficient extracted from the obtained spectral analysis, which allows to advance in the characterization of the Sonority. The generalization of the method is suggested for all families of musical instruments.

Full text
Abstract:
Starting from data on the ‘Paestum’ or ‘Poseidonia’ aulos established by Paul andBarbara Reichlin-Moser and Stelios Psaroudakēs, the ‘Pydna’ aulos, and comparable finds ofearly, mainly six-hole one-hole-shift, doublepipe fragments, possible musical interpretations ofthis important instrument type of the early Classical Period are considered. Probable pitchesand intervals are assessed by means of well-tested software and confirmed experimentally;the required double reeds of a much longer type than known from later periods are shownto be substantiated by iconographic and literary testimony. The harmonic analysis of theinstruments proposes the notion of a rudimentary tetrachordal structure, with equallydivided tetrachords, which is both plausible in terms of music-ethnological parallels and thedevelopment of ancient musical theory. Some of the studied instruments appear to adhereto an early pitch standard, seemingly coinciding with the typical cithara octave. Criticalevaluation of literary sources finally leads to a cautious interpretation as ‘Lydian’ instruments.

Abstract:
This study examines Mozambican popular music to investigate three questions: Are notions of empowerment and accountability present in popular music in Mozambique? If so, what can these existing notions of empowerment and accountability reveal about relations between citizens and state institutions in general and about citizen-led social and political action in particular? In what ways is popular music used to support citizen mobilisation in Mozambique? The discussion is based on an analysis of 46 protest songs, interviews with musicians, music producers and event promoters as well as field interviews and observations among audiences at selected popular music concerts and public workshops in Maputo city. Secondary data were drawn from radio broadcasts, digital media, and social networks. The songs analysed were widely played in the past two decades (1998–2018), a period in which three different presidents led the country. Our focus is on the protest song, conceived as those musical products that are concerned with public affairs, particularly public policy and how it affects citizens’ social, political and economic life, and the relationship between citizens and the state.

Abstract:
Blue Mountain is a 35-minute work for two actors and orchestra. It was commissioned by the Ultima Festival, and premiered in 2014 by the Danish National Chamber Orchestra. The Ultima festival challenged me – being both a composer and writer – to make something where I wrote both text and music. Interestingly, I hadn’t really thought of that before, writing text to my own music – or music to my own text. This is a very common thing in popular music, the songwriter. But in the lied, the orchestral piece or indeed in opera, there is a strict division of labour between composer and writer. There are exceptions, most famously Wagner, who did libretto, music and staging for his operas. And 20th century composers like Olivier Messiaen, who wrote his own poems for his music – or Luciano Berio, who made a collage of such detail that it the text arguably became his own in Sinfonia. But this relationship is often a convoluted one, not often discussed in the tradition of musical analysis where text tend to be taken as a given, not subjected to the same rigorous scrutiny that is often the case with music. This exposition is an attempt to unfold this process of composing with both words and music. A key challenge has been to make the text an intrinsic part of the performance situation, and the music something more than mere accompaniment to narration. To render the words meaningless without the music and vice versa. So the question that emerged was how music and words can be not only equal partners, but also yield a new species of music/text? A second questions follows en suite, and that is what challenges the conflation of different roles – the writer and the composer – presents? I will try to address these questions through a discussion of the methods applied in Blue Mountain, the results they have yielded, and the challenges this work has posed.
