Music for Chamber Band (open access)

Music for Chamber Band

The purpose of the composition of the "Music for Chamber Band" is the creation of an extended work for an ensemble of solo wind instruments are treated as woodwind and brass quartets, with the percussion section, which requires four players, serving a subordinate function. The "Music for Chamber Band" is in three contrasting but thematically interrelated movements. The first movement, entitled "Lament," is marked "Slowly and simply" and has a mournful character. The second movement is fast and vigorous, frequently utilizing cross accents which give the impression of two or more meters performed simultaneously, and is entitled "Dance". The third movement, "Antiphon," is moderate in tempo and relaxed in nature. The form of the work as a whole can be likened to an arch which contains (or is made up of) three smaller arches.

A History of the Clarinet and its Music from 1600 to 1800 (open access)

A History of the Clarinet and its Music from 1600 to 1800

It is the purpose of this thesis to present a study of music written for the clarinet during the period from 1600 to 1800. The first part is a history of the clarinet showing the stages of development of the instrument from its early predecessors to its present form. Part one also explains the acoustics of the clarinet and its actual invention. The second part deals with composers and their music for the clarinet. No attempt is made to include all music written for the instrument during the prescribed period; rather, the writer's intention is to include chiefly those works by composers whose musics has proven to be outstanding in clarinet literature or interesting historically. The order in which the works themselves are taken up is chronological, by composers, with comment on their styles as to form, harmonic content, melodic content, rhythmic content, problems in phrasing, or any other general technical problem. All of these elements are illustrated with examples taken from the music.

The Sinfonia Concertante (open access)

The Sinfonia Concertante

Sinfonia Concertante is a name for an eighteenth-century composition as well as a name of an eighteenth-century instrumental form that was modeled after the earlier concerto grosso. It may be defined as a composition for two or more solo instruments with orchestral accompaniment and written in a style that admits the brilliant display of skill on the soloists' part. It is also thought that the form is nearer that of the symphony than that of the concerto. This thesis discusses the many different influences that resulted in the instrumental form of the sinfonia concertante as well as analyzes specific sinfonia concertanti of Bach, Haydn, Karl Stamitz, and Mozart.

The Programmatic Clavecin Pieces of François Couperin (open access)

The Programmatic Clavecin Pieces of François Couperin

There are two major purposes in selecting Couperin's programmatic clavecin pieces for study; to prove their importance in the evolution of programmatic music and to prove the value of their study by the modern pianist. Due to the enormous number of Couperin's programmatic pieces, a detailed analysis of each piece will not be attempted in this paper. Instead, a general survey will be made.
