دانلود کتاب Musical Analyses and Musical Exegesis: The Shepherd's Melody in Richard Wagner's Tristan and Isolde

The field of musicology has in recent decades branched out to incorporate methods from a wide range of other fields. But, when scholars examine a musical work, to what extent should they emphasize immanent (purely internal) features, and to what extent historical, cultural, psychological, or aesthetic networks of meanings associated with those features? Finally, what specific analytical method should be chosen, given that various methods can lead to seemingly incompatible results?Jean-Jacques Nattiez, a renowned figure in music theory, musicology, and ethnomusicology, here examines numerous contending approaches that have been applied to the English-horn melody heard in Wagner's Tristan and Isolde. His aim is to offer thereby a methodological guide and compendium that will allow specialists and students alike to navigate the multiplicity of theoretical orientations in musicology.Analytical models proposed by Heinrich Schenker, Nicolas Ruwet, Leonard B. Meyer, Fred Lerdahl, and other notable figures in the field of music analysis are discussed. Some of the analytical sketches by these scholars were previously unpublished and are presented to the public for the first time in the present book. The author also considers insights from the fields of psychology and psychoanalysis. An examination of Wagner's wide-ranging musical sources (Venetian gondolier songs and Swiss shepherd songs) leads to acutely relevant passages in writings by Rousseau, Goethe, and Schopenhauer. The book culminates in Nattiez's own interpretation of the relationship between vocal and instrumental music in Tristan and Isolde. Jean-Jacques Nattiez is professor emeritus of musicology at the Université de Montréal.Table of ContentsForeword by Pierre BoulezPrefaceIntroduction: The English Horn Solo, My Approach, and Models of Analysis and Musical MeaningPART I: IMMANENT ANALYSIS OF THE ENGLISH HORN SOLO'S MUSICAL STRUCTURESLinear AnalysesFormenlehre AnalysesParadigmatic AnalysesPART II: ESTHETIC ANALYSISPerformances as Initial Esthesic AnalysesEsthesic Analysis of the Solo's Immanent StructuresEsthesic Analysis of the Solo's Semantic AssociationsPART III: POIETIC ANALYSISMusical Sources for the SoloThe Solo's Composition: Sketches and the Creative ProcessPART IV: HERMENEUTICSThe Shepherd's Melody at Risk of PsychoanalysisThe Shepherd's Melody and the English Horn in Tristan"This Shepherd's Metaphysical Melody"Conclusion: The Validity of Structural Analyses and InterpretationsBibliographyIndex
