Claude Vivier and Karlheinz Stockhausen
That Karlheinz Stockhausen played a crucial role in the musical development of the young Claude Vivier is beyond question. In an autobiographical note written in 1975, Vivier noted: “Born in Montreal in 1948. Born to music with Gilles Tremblay in 1968. Born to composition with Stockhausen in 1972. Indeed, the widespread view is that, during the years he studied formally with Stockhausen at the Hochschule für Musik in Cologne (1972-74), Vivier her…
James Tenney and the Poetics of Homage
One of the recurrent themes of James Tenney's highly diverse musical output is an engagement with the work of other composers. From QUIET FAN for ERIK SATIE of 1970 through Spectral CANON for CONLON Nancarrow in 1974, all the way to ’Scend for Scelsi in 1996 and Song’n’Dance for Harry Partch in 1999, Tenney's compositions bear dedications to a wide range of composers whose work he admired. Besides those already mentioned, we find Ives, Varèse, Co…
A Technological Examination of Ninth-Tenth Century Ad Abbasid Blue-and-White Ware From Iraq, and Its Comparison With Eighth Century Ad Chinese Blue-and-White Sancai Ware
Eight sherds of ninth-tenth century ad Abbaesid blue-and-white glazed earthenware, excavated in 1931 at Hira in western Iraq, were analysed using, variously, quantitative wavelength-dispersive spectrometry (WDS) and energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS) in association with scanning electron microscopes (SEM), and semi-quantitative X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). In order to compare the compositions of the cobalt pigments used, the glazes of…
Wild Ocean”
This text is a much shortened transcription of an interview by the author with the composer Horatiu Radulescu, recorded in Freiburg, Germany, in 1996. The text preserves the unique flavour of Radulescu's spoken English in an attempt to convey something of the multi-lingual nature of his thought. The discussion centres around Radulescu's development of the "spectral technique of composition" in the late 1960s and its application in his music
