Interpreting the Rhythmic Structures of Paul Creston as Applied in the Six Preludes for Piano, Op. 38 and the Sonata for Saxophone and Piano, Op. 19

The general purpose of this paper is the discussion of the interpretation and performance of rhythm within the context of Paul Creston's five rhythmic structures. Specific objectives are to bring to light Creston's unique rhythmic terminology, theories, and structures; and to interpret rhythm at the piano with an emphasis on accent, pedaling, articulation, balance of textures, and pace.
