| Abstract | |
This research aims for a compositional strategy to instrumental music that conceives the material through its sonic qualities, that is, what guides the compositional principle is the study of the material whose features are related through its timbre, spectral and morphological qualities, among others, in a principle that guided indeed the compositional process. To enrich this model, an analytical methodology was developed based on the tools that came from the eletroacoustic music . especially Schaeffer's (1996) typo-morphology and Smalley's (1997) spectromorphology . with efforts to look for qualitative models (the eletroacoustic music is considered here as an important reference concerning the sound perception focus). It is important to say that the analytical work done tried to maintain the characteristics inherent to the instrumental support, by using other analytical tools when necessary, always searching to respect the selected repertoire (which has an impressive work through sonorities, despite the historically neglected by analysis): the chosen pieces are Edgard Varèse's Hyperprism; and the second movement of György Ligeti's Piano Concerto, .Lento e Deserto.. The analysis, the acquisition of theoretical tools, the ideas and concepts that have became, all they worked as a basis for composing pieces seeking for poetic autonomy: this feature also helped in the perfecting of the methodology in respect to the work's characteristics, while investigating its sonic level. All this as a resource for building the composition strategy that motivated this research. (AU) | |
