Abstract (sommario):

In this article Saariaho's music - with a focus on Lichtbogenis explored from the perspective of spatiality. First, Saariaho's connection with Finland is discussed and in particular how Finnish space and time have influenced her music.Together with space, there is the relation between time and light. In fact, the creative process by Saariaho is strongly influenced by visual experiences. The title of Lichtbogen refers to the Nordic lights, and therefore it is an interesting example. In her article on similarities between architecture and music, Saariaho defines with great clarity her music: "Capturing time and giving it form." In this phrase she connects the aspect of time and space with musical form. Understanding how Saariaho'sconception of musical form brings the concept of a multidimensional network to the discussion. Saariaho developed this concept for Verblendungen, and the same principle has been used for an analysis of Lichtbogen. This analysis is not a score analysis, instead, it is based on the listening experience of several recordings. As Saariaho is concerned with the perception of her music, a listening-based graphic analysis is proposed based on listening. It captures an illuminating perspective on the form of Lichtbogen. Given the importance of timbre in Saariaho's music, and the way how timbre and form are connected, the question of her relation with spectral music is unavoidable. Saariaho lived in Paris during the '80s, when early spectralism made important developments. And her music is indeed deeply influenced by the spectral approach in many ways. However, there are differences, especially regarding her attitude towards musical form. Finally the discussion about space is taken to the perspective of electronics and how they contribute to the expression of space. In Lichtbogen, the amplification is used to make those sounds on the threshold of audibility audible, and the reverb is used to create virtual spaces. The concept of space is integrated in the composition itself. In conclusion, the concept of space is central to Saariaho's creativity. This connection is approached in this article from various perspectives.It illustrates how important the space is, in connection with time and light, in Saariaho'scompositional work.

Abstract (sommario):

This essay is my interpretation of the gender negotiation of the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho in Finland. I demonstrate, by examining the public's reception of Kaija Saariaho and her own experiences, how the gender negotiation of gender identity and the presentation of a woman composer take place, as ongoing processes, between the realms of conventional otherness (the socially constructed category of women composers) and real-life experiences of the individual. The analysis is done through the theoretical lenses offered by DE LAURETIS (1988) CITRON (1993), FOUCAULT (1984) and the epistemology of nomadic transitions by BRAIDOTTI (1991, 1994). I claimed that Saariaho has negotiated her gender not “within” the male-dominated system but “with” it, defining a new gender subject position: the position of the nomadic subject.

Abstract (sommario):

Nowadays Kaija Saariaho is one of the most successful composers in the field of contemporary classical music. A former student of Tristan Murail, she works in the direction initiated by socalled spectral composition, composing extremely colourful and poetic pieces that are highly appreciated by music critics. One of her orchestra compositions, Laterna Magica, based on the memoirs by Ingmar Bergman and commissioned by the Berliner Philharmoniker Orchestra, premiered in 2009 and became a hit — it was performed more than thirty times after the premiere. This successful piece is the main object of the analysis which is performed according to ideas of Saariaho expressed in her theoretical articles. One of the most interesting ideas about music form proposed by the composer is the idea of “polyphony of processes”, which means that different parameters of composition are realized in different schemes that do not intersect but act as separate phenomena creating an impression of both independence of the parameters and their interaction at the same time. Such parameters as rhythm, melodic ideas, application of text, tempos, textures and their combinations as well as orchestration and harmony have their own profile and are constructed according to different schemes. Besides music itself, a text by Saariaho written for the premiere of the piece is analysed and interpreted as a special case of a “composer’s vision” which shows specific angles in the author’s perception.

Abstract (sommario):

This article is a translation of a musicological work written by the Finnish composer Kaia Saariaho with sound engineers Xavier Chabot and Jean-Baptiste Barrière from the Ircam. The study describes two solo pieces – «NoaNoa» and «Près» – one for flute, the other for cello, realized during 1992 by Kaija Saariaho with the Ircam Signal Processing Workstation (ISPW, based on the Next computer) and with Xavier Chabot from the Ircam Pedagogy department. These works are created in the pedagogical perspective to explore the potentialities of Max on the ISPW, and specially its connexion with Patchwork used to prepare data and patches. In the two pieces, the electronic parts amplify and develop the sonic structure of the solo instrument, exemplify the close relationship between sound material and musical structure, and explore real-time strategies for control over various synthesis and signal processing algorithms.

Abstract (sommario):

Artykuł jest próbą porównania, w jaki sposób poetyka paradoksu realizuje się w pisarstwie filozoficzno-teologicznym Simone Weil oraz w języku muzycznym fińskiej kompozytorki Kaiji Saariaho w jej oratorium La Passion de Simone, poświęconym życiu i twórczości Weil. Przewodnikiem na drodze analizy komparatystycznej jest etymologia paradoksu, począwszy od jego znaczeń związanych z przeciwstawianiem się doksie, rozumianej jako zbiór przyjętych przez ogół mniemań, po odczytanie paradoksu jako ‛bycia obok’ (para) ‛chwały’ (doxa). Oba zakresy semantyczne przenikają tkankę tekstów Weil, zarówno na poziomie języka pełnego sprzeczności, jak i na poziomie rozważanej idei kenozy – największego paradoksu teologicznego, zasadzającego się na zderzeniu boskiej natury Chrystusa z pozbawieniem Go chwały w momencie Ukrzyżowania. Język muzyczny Saariaho wyzyskuje weilowskie sprzeczności, zestawiając ze sobą kontrastowe masy brzmień. Zamienia także muzyczny czas na wrażenie muzycznej przestrzeni oraz w sposób paradoksalny naśladuje dźwiękami ciszę.

Abstract (sommario):

This article explores the relationship of desire and distance in Kaija Saariaho's Lonh (1996) for soprano and electronics. The subject matter of Lonh is desire and romantic pleasures, anchored to feminine subjectivity, represented on stage by a soprano singer. Electronics provide the environmental sounds and amplify the singer's voice. Through Lonh looms a medieval song in the Occitan language, ‘Lanquan li jorn son lonc en mai’ by Jaufré Rudel, a famous troubadour in twelfth-century Provence. Saariaho reverses the narrative convention of love stories by presenting the most intimate encounter at the very beginning. In their succeeding encounters, the lovers move further away from each other. Similarly, in the course of Lonh the distance to Jaufré's song also increases. Luce Irigaray's concepts of love are used for an analysis of the relationship of the loving pair. By the end of Lonh the borderlines of speaking, singing, electronics, language and music collapse in Barthesian jouissance (bliss). The electronic technology in Lonh enables the re-investiture of cultural values, and the construction of flexible identities, crossing boundaries between the self and the other.

Abstract (sommario):

Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho is one of the most prominent figures in contemporary music culture. She became known to the general public after the triumphant premiere of her Love from Afar opera (L’amour de loin, 2000), held at the Salzburg festival. The article is devoted to another work of the composer — the vocal cycle True Fire (2014), which was also successfully received by critics and the public, but has not yet been the subject of a separate study. This work is the first experience of its analysis, focused on both its musical and literary components, which led to the conditional division of the article into two parts. The composer, by her own admission, sought to demonstrate in the cycle the rich palette of colors of the world-famous Canadian baritone Gerald Finley for whom the composition was written. In addition, in True Fire through the texts of R.W. Emerson, M. Darvish, S. Heaney and the lullaby of the Tewa Indians, which became the literary basis of the work, the author’s ideas of a different order are embodied. What they are and how they are reflected in music are the questions that we tried to answer in this article.

Postmodernism in music may be hard to define – even harder than the same notoriously slippery term in literature – but Olga Neuwirth's viola concerto Remnants of songs … an Amphigory (2009) may be as good an exemplar as any. Given its UK première on 13 August by the talented British violist Lawrence Power, with the Philharmonia Orchestra under Susanna Mälkki, the concerto's Proms appearance marks the first time the festival has put on any of her pieces.

Abstract (sommario):

AbstractThe sheer quantity and diversity of music being written in Finland today continues to surprise and delight us. But one significant strand in this otherwise egalitarian success story has remained in the shadows: the role of women composers. Kaija Saariaho appears to be the only such figure to hold a truly international reputation, raising basic questions: why should this be so, how are things changing and what kind of music is being produced. Outlining social and political issues that are distinctive to Finland helps to explain the emergence of Saariaho as a role model for younger women composers. It also invites a detailed case study of a leading member of this generation: Lotta Wennäkoski. This focus on an analytical reading of Wennäkoski's compositional process – as evidenced through her orchestral piece Sakara (2003) – reveals how this music communicates so effectively with contemporary audiences.

Abstract (sommario):

The idea of a renewal of the genre of opera has found its brilliant manifestation in numerous works written by some of the outstanding composers of our time: John Adams, Louis Andriessen, Tan Dun, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, John Cage, Kaija Saariaho and many others. Their works demonstrated transformations stipulated by transgressions of cause-and-effect relationships in their dramaturgy, inclusions of semantic abruptions interrupting the linearity of the narrative, as well as a rejection of the communicative function of words in favor of the musicality of their sound. In some compositions the nature of the relationship between the composer, the performer and the audience has radically changed, which has led to the disintegration of the established norms of genre. The experiments in the sphere of genre demonstrated in Kaija Saariaho’s new opera Innocence (2018) present the subject of research interests, since they, similar to a mirror, reflect a much more extensive and serious scholarly issue — the interpretation of the genre of opera at the beginning of the 21st century. The novelty of the studied composition is determined by the combination of the genres of opera and thriller in it. The specific construction of the libretto and musical dramaturgy, as well as the interpretation of the vocal and choral parts are aimed at creating a long-lasting emotional buildup characteristic of a thriller and immersing the audience in a state of anxiety and fear.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Only the Sound Remains consists of two stories of supernatural encounters. A monk, praying for the soul of a deceased general, meets the latter's ghost, attracted by the sounds of the lute used in the monk's ritual. A fisherman finds the feather mantle belonging to a Tennin, an angelic spirit, who pleads with him to return the item, which he only does after she performs a celestial dance; thus, the chorus tells us, ‘was the dance of pleasure, Suruga dancing, brought to the sacred east’. Both encounters are evanescent: the ghost of the general is visited by memories of terrible battles and disappears back into the spirit world; the Tennin's dance is an announcement of spring, as the Tennin herself disperses into the mists that obscure mount Fuji. In both stories, the spiritual is a manifestation of something virtual, relating artistic forms to worlds not of, yet touching on, the everyday. The sounds of the lute, which used to belong to the general, are a conduit to deep memory; the dance taught by the Tennin connects humans to the inhuman workings of nature.

Abstract (sommario):

The article presents musicological and existentialist philosophical discourses on renaissance and baroque structures in the works of two contemporary classical composers. The existentialist point of view is imposed due to the examination of contemporary music works in which historically conditioned practices are also found. Being and Time and Introduction to Metaphysics by Martin Heidegger serve as a starting point for the reflections. The two works D’Om Le Vrai Sens by Kaija Saariaho and Concerto Grosso “Sun Reflections” by Yordan Goshev are stylistically very different but the first bears renaissance and the second – baroque features respectively. In consequence, Der Man or Das Man is defined by the opposition between renaissance humanism and the metaphysics of Being.

Abstract (sommario):

This essay unites musicology's concern with the discursive force of organized sound, and sound studies' concern with the discursive force of sonic environments, recording formats and media networks, to consider how the widely transmitted medieval song ‘Lanqan li jorn son lonc en mai’ attributed to Jaufre Rudel produces sonograms that map distance and desire in the chasm between the Islamic East and the Christian West. The first half of the essay examines ‘Lanqan li jorn son lonc en mai’ in the context of transcultural sound networks, medieval notions of global geography and the material formatting of songs. The second half considers a 1977 recording of the song by the Clemencic Consort, and the 2000 opera by Finish composer Kaija Saariaho called L'Amour de loin with a libretto by the Lebanese author Amin Maalouf. In both cases, the song is sonically reimagined to express modern-day strife in the Middle East.

Abstract (sommario):

The end of the 20th century demonstrates an expansion of horizons of the comprehension of musical sonorities, the conception of their transformation from music into “sound,” which radically changes the perception of timbre: this element becomes transformed from a peripheral component of sound to the primary element, thereby changing entirely the entire conception of musical material. Thus, the theory of music material developed by outstanding German philosopher Theodor Adorno in the middle of the 20th century has found its confirmation. The latter’s concept of the historicity of music material was upheld and further developed by Italian composer Luigi Nono, who fundamentally changed the sphere of perception of this phenomenon, which subsequently was testified by his German student Helmut Lachenmann. This required not only new combinations of sound, but a reevaluation of the attitude of working with them. Fausto Romitelli (1963–2004) pertains to the generation of composers that discovered new paths for work with sound. In his musical output sound becomes a complex multicomponent phenomenon presuming an interaction between acoustic instruments, electronic sounds and reverberation — the sound “aura” and the sound “halo,” both of which are also composed consciously (presenting “composed resonance”). Romitelli’s individuality demonstrates itself in the fact that he builds this component of his musical material, basing himself on sonar discoveries in the sphere of rock music, in particular, the Pink Floyd ensemble, which finds reflection in such of his works as EnTrance, Professor Bad Trip, etc. Romitelli characterized the “aura” of his sound as “dirty,” comprehending this as a specific resonance of the sound of the electric guitar in rock music. Romitelli’s “composed resonance” is not characteristic solely of him; “composed resonance” as an element of musical material may be discerned in the works of other composers, in particular, Kaija Saariaho in her Amers for solo cello and ensemble.

Abstract (sommario):

The article studies miniatures in Kaija Saariaho's Lichtbogen for nine musicians and live electronics (1985-86). The research material consists of records, the score and composer's interviews and articles. Methodologically, the article is based on Gaston Bachelard 's phenomenology (The Poetics of Space) and Denis Smalley's "Spectromorphology." Miniatures are subtle spatio-temporal constellations, which require a non-global listening strategy, or an "aural magnification glass" in order to be perceived. In Saariaho's case, these miniatures are often imbued with musical tension, which reverberates across the material borders of music and texts. By working on the borderline between music and language, they challenge the notion that a hard separation exists between the purely musical and the extra-musical.

Abstract (sommario):

Kaija Saariaho's opera L'amour de loin – her first – was completed in 2000 and given its first production at the Salzburg Festival that year; it toured to Paris in late 2001 and to Santa Fe in 2002; it has also been staged in Darmstadt. Its concert presentation at the Barbican on 21 November was thus the first performance without the support of stage business – and, not having seen those earlier productions, one wonders how it can have been staged at all: the work is a drama-less, interiorized dreamscape-cum-ritual which proceeds in the imaginations of its symbolic characters. Those are the troubadour Jaufré Rudel, Prince de Blaye (baritone – on this occasion Gerald Finley), whose idealized love Clémence, Princess of Tripoli (soprano – Dawn Upshaw) lives at a (literally) respectable distance, at the other end of the Mediterranean; the go-between is a pilgrim (mezzo soprano – Beth Clayton); male and female choruses, deployed separately and only intermittently, represent the outside world, their matter-of-factness contrasting with the high-flown unrealism of the principals.

Abstract (sommario):

Kaija Saariaho's NoaNoa for flute and electronics consists of two materials: the live flute part and the electronic component, which can be further divided into real-time and pre-recorded material. The sound mixtures of live instrument, pre-recorded material, and real-time electronics create diverse instrumental positions, which also have effects on the musician's experiences of self and gender. This article examines the live flautist's embodied identity during the real-time reverberation and the pre-recorded part. Different performances of NoaNoa by different performers introduce diverse embodied flautist identities where the negotiations of gender and self are constantly redefined.

Abstract (sommario):

This article explores the spatial identities of the flautists in playing Kaija Saariaho's music with live electronics, particularly reverberation and harmonisation. The varying spatial position of the flautists are theorised mainly via two approaches: that of ‘local/field’ concepts by Simon Emmerson, and through the philosophy of narrative identity developed by Paul Ricoeur. The article investigates the flautists' experiences of control over the sound, and especially its most intimate form, direct control, by discussing the relationship between the choices of live flautist and the sound director. The sound result is constantly negotiated by several authorial activities, the contributions of which are closely overlapping and conversing with each other.

Abstract (sommario):

What takes place in the minds of composers when they struggle to incorporate a given temporal concept into a musical work? Spectral composers have produced detailed theoretical proposals about time in music, but how exactly those ideas influenced their musical practices remains an extremely challenging question. Graphical representations in their sketches provide invaluable clues. Through the analyses of Gérard Grisey’s and Kaija Saariaho’s manuscripts, we show how the theoretical frameworks for the basic cognitive operations of blending and anchoring, which underlie the construction of complex meanings, can shed light on the intricate musical uses of timelines by spectral composers. We combine the universal claims of this cognitive analysis with the diachronic perspective of a musicological study, teasing out the mental paths that these composers may have followed to create novel aesthetic proposals from their experience with graphic representations of sound, mainly spectrograms, and from techniques of electroacoustic studios. Thus we pave the way towards a common language for understanding time representation across electroacoustics and music in general, based on this mixed methodology. Through such shared tenets, the cognitive study of music can reciprocally contribute to burgeoning fields such as time representation, meaning construction and creativity.

Abstract (sommario):

The focus of the research is the creative collaboration between composer Kaija Saariaho and her regular partners, playwright Amin Maalouf and director Peter Sellars, vividly embodied in the field of musical theater. The subject of the study is three operas by Saariaho, created in different years; the compositions carry a certain artistic image, characterizing the joint work of the three masters. The three operas are united by such a specific factor as the combination of a special psychological depth in the development of the plot with some elements of unreality. In each of the operas, this factor is manifested in its own way. When analyzing various aspects of the works, the article focuses on the degree and nature of the contribution of the composer, librettist, and director in their embodiment. In the conclusion, conclusions are drawn regarding the properties that allowed the creative team to achieve such successful and harmonious collaboration. This article is the first to explore Saariaho’s operas from such a perspective.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This article discusses ways in which shared musical lines such as unisons or pitch repetitions can increase and intensify a sense of bonding between performers. Counterpoint-oriented analytical frameworks tend to reduce unisons and unison motion to a single line. By contrast, I propose that unisons’ performative dimension—which I refer to as sonic bridges—foregrounds their importance. Combining analysis with ethnography, I examine unison passages in two songs for piano and voice by Kaija Saariaho, “Parfum de l’instant” from Quatre instants (2002) and “Rauha” from Leinolaulut (2007). This article suggests that Saariaho’s use of sonic bridges not only enables two very different instruments—piano and voice—to compellingly blend, but also strengthens the empathy and bonding between singer and pianist, which further exposes the intimate, multisensory quality of these songs.

Abstract (sommario):

This article examines computer-based music (ca. 1982–87) created by Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho at the Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique (IRCAM) in Paris. A detailed account of archival materials for an early étude in voice synthesis, Vers le blanc (1982), demonstrates the music-theoretical import of software to Saariaho’s development of a robust compositional method that resonated with the emergent aesthetics of a post-spectral milieu. Subsequent analyses of two additional works from this period—Jardin secret II (1984–86) for harpsichord and tape, and IO (1987) for large ensemble and electronics—serve to illustrate Saariaho’s extension of this method into instrumental settings. Specific techniques highlighted include the use of interpolation systems to create continuous processes of transformation, the organization of individual musical parameters into multidimensional formal networks, and the exploration of harmonic structures based on the analysis of timbral phenomena. Relating these techniques to the affordances of contemporaneous IRCAM technologies, including CHANT, FORMES, and Saariaho’s own customized program, “transkaija,” this article adopts a transductive approach to archival research that is responsive to the diverse media artifacts associated with computer-based composition.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract This article explores the notion of interpretive difficulty in contemporary music, treating it as a structural, tangible aspect of analysis. Interpretive difficulty comprises any challenge a performer may encounter—physical, cognitive, emotional, specific to a musical passage, or generalized across a repertoire or performance idiom. Five professional performers who specialize in contemporary music are interviewed about their experiences learning and performing specific works—Crimson (Rebecca Saunders, 2005), Taurangi (Gillian Whitehead, 1999), Mani.Δίκη (Pierluigi Billone, 2012), Sept papillons (Kaija Saariaho, 2000), and La Nativité du Seigneur (Olivier Messiaen, 1935)—focusing on how interpretive difficulty and musical structure intersect in their practice. These interviews illuminate a relationship between interpretive difficulty and musical structure that manifests in several domains: accuracy, interpretive latitude, narrative, and control. While difficulty is uniquely determined by any musician's physical, cognitive, environmental, or cultural context, using these domains as a theoretical framework establishes relationships among works, performers, and idioms that might otherwise appear to have little in common—a particularly appealing prospect for recently composed repertoire. In subscribing to Nicholas Cook's (2013) recharacterization of the score as a “script” that is interpreted, supplemented, and molded in performance, this research encourages the treatment of performers' contributions as a fundamental object of analysis.
