Orpheus Institute Artistic experimentation in music
an anthology
Essential reading for anyone interested in artistic research applied to music. This book is the first anthology of writings about the emerging subject of artistic experimentation in music. This subject, as part of the cross-disciplinary field of artistic research, cuts across boundaries of the conventional categories of performance practice, music analysis, aesthetics, and music pedagogy. The texts, most of them specially written for this volume, have a common genesis in the explorations of the Orpheus...

New paths
aspects of music theory and aesthetics in the age of romanticism
New Paths, the seventh volume in the Writings of the Orpheus Institute, is a result of the third International Orpheus Academy for Music Theory. Five renowned scholars discuss a variety of topics related to romanticism, focusing especially on the years 1800-1840. In a much-needed historical and critical overview of the concept of organicism, John Neubauer ranges from its origins in Enlightenment biology to its aftermath in postmodernism.

Orpheus Institute | Alessandro Cervino The practice of practising
The process of practising is intrinsic to musical creativity. Practising may primarily be thought of as technical, but it is often also musically meaningful, including elements of interpretation, improvisation, and/or composition. The practice room can be a space in which to explore a field of creative possibilities; a place to experiment and to refine ideas. To date, the literature on practice has been primarily pedagogical and psychological. Little attention is paid to the significance of practice,...

Steven Vande Moortele Two-dimensional sonata form
form and cycle in single-movement instrumental works by Liszt, Strauss, Schoenberg, and Zemlinsky
Two-Dimensional Sonata Form is the first book dedicated to the combination of the movements of a multimovement sonata cycle with an overarching single-movement form that is itself organized as a sonata form. Drawing on a variety of historical and recent approaches to musical form (e.g., Marxian and Schoenbergian Formenlehre, Caplin's theory of formal functions, and Hepokoski and Darcy's Sonata Theory), it begins by developing an original theoretical framework for the analysis of this type of form...

Music, analysis, experience
new perspectives in musical semiotics
Transdisciplinary and intermedial analysis of the experience of music. Nowadays musical semiotics no longer ignores the fundamental challenges raised by cognitive sciences, ethology, or linguistics. Creation, action and experience play an increasing role in how we understand music, a sounding structure impinging upon our body, our mind, and the world we live in. Not discarding music as a closed system, an integral experience of music demands a transdisciplinary dialogue with other domains as well....

Sémiotique et vécu musical
du sens à l’expérience, de l’expérience au sens
Nouvelles perspectives en sémiotique. Tout est musique, et la musique nous accompagne partout : ces lieux communs n'ont jamais été si vrais qu'aujourd'hui, au temps de l'arrosage musical continuel. Cette ubiquité, loin d'être simplement une mode, nous oblige à repenser sémiotiquement la fonction et le fonctionnement de la musique. Les essais composant Sémiotique et vécu musical montrent dans quelle direction se dirigent les recherches de nos jours. L'analyse de l'expérience musicale, par...

Barbara Titus Recognizing music as an art form
Friedrich Th. Vischer and German music criticism, 1848-1887
The impact of Hegelian philosophy on 19th-century music criticism. Music's status as an art form was distrusted in the context of German idealist philosophy which exerted an unparalleled influence on the entire nineteenth century. Hegel insisted that the content of a work of art should be grasped in concepts in order to establish its spiritual substantiality (Geistigkeit), and that no object, word or image could accurately represent the content and meaning of a musical work. In the mid-nineteenth...

Stichting Nederlandse Orgelmonografieën De aristocraat onder onze historische orgels
de orgels van de Oude Kerk Amsterdam
De Oude Kerk is het oudste gebouw van Amsterdam. Al voor de Reformatie kon het publiek hier bijna dagelijks genieten van openbare orgelbespelingen. Organist Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck maakte er furore mee. Van heinde en ver kwamen leerlingen om bij hem te studeren. Het grote orgel uit 1540 van orgelmaker Hendrik Niehoff dat Sweelinck had bespeeld, maakte in 1726 plaats voor een nieuw orgel van Christian Vater. Nog geen twintig jaar later herzag Johann Casper Müller het orgel ingrijpend, en in 1870...

Cultural mediation in Europe, 1800-1950
International exchange in European cultural life in the 19th and 20th centuries From the early nineteenth century till the middle of the twentieth century, cultures in Europe were primarily national. They were organized and conceived of as attributes of the nation states. Nonetheless, these national cultures crossed borders with an unprecedented intensity even before globalization transformed the very concept of culture. During that long period, European cultures have imported and exported products,...

What Is a cadence?
theoretical and analytical perspectives on cadences in the classical repertoire
The variety and complexity of cadence. The concept of closure is crucial to understanding music from the "classical" style. This volume focuses on the primary means of achieving closure in tonal music: the cadence. Written by leading North American and European scholars, the nine essays assembled in this volume seek to account for the great variety and complexity inherent in the cadence by approaching it from different (sub)disciplinary angles, including music-analytical, theoretical, historical,...

Ignace Bossuyt J.S. Bach
de h-Moll-Messe
De fascinerende geschiedenis van Bachs muzikaal testament. Enkele maanden vóór zijn overlijden in 1750 voltooide Johan Sebastian Bach zijn muzikaal testament: de h-Moll-Messe. Hij creëerde hiermee een bewonderenswaardige synthese van de hele geschiedenis van de mis, het genre dat ook toen nog gold als dé toetssteen voor compositorisch vernuft en scherpzinnige tekstinterpretatie. Middeleeuwen, renaissance en barok versmelten in Bachs ultieme meesterwerk tot wellicht de meest universele compositie...

Kadoc Loci sacri
understanding sacred places
Sacred places have long exercised a special fascination. Sacred places are not static entities but reveal a historical dynamic. They are the result of cultural developments and have varied multidimensional levels of significance. They are places where time is, as it were, suspended, and they are points where holy times and holy places meet. Sacred places are places apart. It is this specificity in the context of the Christian religions of the West that Loci Sacri wishes to unveil by bringing together...

Geert Vanpaemel Wetenschap als roeping
een geschiedenis van de Leuvense faculteit voor wetenschappen
Van katholieke propaganda en maatschappelijk belang tot wetenschappelijk onderzoek. Horen de natuurwetenschappen thuis aan een universiteit? Van bij haar oprichting in 1817 heeft de Leuvense faculteit voor wetenschappen moeten strijden om haar bestaan te rechtvaardigen. Daarbij moest ze steeds opnieuw het juiste evenwicht vinden tussen katholieke propaganda, maatschappelijk nut en zuivere wetenschap. Pas op het einde van de negentiende eeuw slaagde ze erin het roer in eigen handen te nemen. Wetenschappelijk...
