Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis

Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis

This book studies recent music in the western classical tradition offering a critique of current analytical/theoretical approaches and proposing alternatives. The critique addresses the present fringe status of recent music sometimes described as crossover postmodern post-classical post-minimalist etc. and demonstrates that existing descriptive languages and analytical approaches do not provide adequate tools to address this music in positive and productive terms. Existing tools and concepts were developed primarily in the mid-20th century in tandem with the high modernist compositional aesthetic and they have changed little since then. The aesthetics of music composition on the other hand have been in constant transformation. Lochhead proposes new ways to conceive musical works their structurings of musical experience and time and the procedures and goals of analytic close reading. These tools define investigative procedures that engage the multiple perspectives of composers performers and listeners and that generate conceptual modes unique to each work. In action they rebuild a conceptual methodological and experiential place for recent music. These new approaches are demonstrated in analyses of four pieces: Kaija Saariaho’s Lonh (1996) Sofia Gubaidulina’s Second String Quartet (1987) Stacy Garrop’s String Quartet no. 2 Demons and Angels (2004-05) and Anna Clyne’s Choke (2004). This book defies the prediction of classical music’s death and will be of interest to scholars and musicians of classical music and those interested in music theory musicology and aural culture. | Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis
