Title: Only the New (music)
Post by: Philoctetes on November 08, 2010, 07:28:18 PM
I'm hoping that many will add to this thread. A thread solely focused on new classical compositions. But what does new mean? I'd save give it a healthy range, from the 1970s forward. Although, I'd hope for more pieces within the last decade, but I know how difficult it can be to find recordings of music that new, but I'll start us all off with Liza Lim.

Who really cares what is happening in classical music right now? I sure don't. There is so much music just in first half of the 20th Century that will keep you busy for the rest of your life.

Thanks for that delightful piece, Philoctetes. That was fun.

Here's some more fun. Martin Tetreault and Otomo Yoshihide from 2007.

Thought I don't doubt your final statement could well be true it makes me sad to read this. I thought you were better than that.

They say that those who forget the past are destined to repeat it, but when it comes to music I think those who fixate on the past are certain to repeat it, ad infinitum. If all mankind had that kind of attitude we'd still be living in cold dark caves! Innovation is the life-blood of music - and i'd imagine that someone so fond of the early 20th century music would be acutely and especially aware of that. Which begs the question: how can you not care? How can you not be fascinated, curious, or even just plain glad that innovation continues?

I'm just curious, as it seems of out of character.

Thanks for the introduction. Although, I didn't find his music all that appealing (it seemed too traditional for me, too conventional), it was enjoyable. It just didn't sound "modern" enough, if you know what I mean, and I think you do.

I'm certainly interested in modern music, but I'm just as certainly not interested in any music similar to what is depicted in this video.  To take an instrument like the cello that has been engineered over centuries to produce a rich tone when played a certain way, then make some absurd modification to the instrument or technique make it sound "different" strike me as idiotic.  To invent melodies, rhythms, and harmonies that have not been imagined before takes intelligence, and that is would I would like to find.

My difficulty is that the traditional methods of finding new music don't lead to much really modern music.  Production is motivated by demand, and there is no demand for music that people have never heard or heard of.  So demand for new art music builds up slowly.  I guess truly "commercial" music works differently, since music produces "manufacture" new artists to satisfy a demand which is itself manufactured through advertising and promotion.

Definitely fair criticisms, and I'm confident that not everyone will enjoy these new works (at least the  ones that I enjoy), but Henning posted a more "commerical" modern work, and that's the spirit I'm hoping this thread will foster.

I've not heard him, but...

"His initial musical studies were with Oliver Knussen, John Lambert, and later with Gunther Schuller.He also has been strongly influenced by jazz, in particular by the work of Miles Davis.

Turnage's music has a characteristic personal style, with strong rhythmic thrust, involved jazz harmonies, colourful orchestration with prominent use of percussion, and hints of various orchestrational sounds from Duke Ellington to 1970s TV detective series theme tunes..."

He sounds awesome.

I guess I shouldn't have said that I don't care, because now that I think about I do, but I should have said that I've got enough music on my plate right now that I couldn't possibly begin to start listening to the music of today.

Well, there's new and there's recent. A piece can be recent without being new. Nothing easier, really.

As for Scarpia's comment, I have a question: Why not play the instrument? The whole instrument, not just part of it. And in ways that were not thought of by the original designer. Sure those old techniques are fine and produced a lot of very delightful music. But they're not the only techniques possible, nor are the musics they produce the only delightful musics.

Anyway, on with the music.

Don't cry Karl! I shouldn't have posted that message. I guess what pains me is that there are composers that have been dead for say 30-40 years now that seldom get played or recorded and that deserve as much as chance as anyone who composes music today. In fact, I think in our current musical environment that people place too much importance on the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic Eras when there's so much in the 20th Century that needs to be performed and given a chance.

I can agree that it is somewhat arbitrary that we have decided that there are about a dozen "standard" instruments like violin, oboe, trombone, piano, etc, that are allowed in classical music.  It would make sense to me to develop new instruments.  But playing a cello in a way that it makes squeeky noises, that's interesting?   Not to me.  I'm interested in new music, but I am primarily interested in the basic elements of music, melody, harmony, rhythm, counterpoint, tone color.   It's harder to think of a variety of harmony that no one has thought of before than to play your violin with a turkey baster.

Again, that's completely fair, but you speak of the 'basic' elements of music, is not dragging the bow across the string, about as 'basic' as one can get? I find it interesting, not only in the sounds that were created, but in the way that they were created, and what they were created with.

But you're not the only one listening. It is interesting to me. So at least I win, eh? Besides, to my father the violin played the "normal" way was just a bunch of squeaky noises. So where does that leave us?

But new music composers are interested, some of them, in other things besides these basic elements. Though if by melody you mean sounds going higher or lower, and by harmony sounds sounding together, and by rhythm sounds sounding in time, and so forth, then fine! That cello piece was full of all of those things.

Otherwise, the degree of difficulty is no guarantee of anything. If playing your violin with a turkey baster sounds nice, then why the hell not?

(Philoctetes, glad you liked the Azguime. I got to meet him after the show, so can also report that he's a really nice guy. I've run into him from time to time at other festivals, too, and he has continued to be just as charming as he was at first!)

Well, I won't claim you are wrong to find it interesting. 

People work very hard to make a tone of well-defined pitch by scraping a bow across a string.  It's not automatic.  If you are not skilled, you produce noise, not to dissimilar to that youtube video.   ;D

Ferdinand Ries: Piano Quartet Op. 13 in F Minor.

At no point did Mr. Ries feel it necessary to instruct any of the musicians to do anything out of the ordinary with their instruments.

I am enjoying it very much.

Glad to hear that you are enjoying it. Although, what do you mean exactly by 'out of the ordinary'? Do you simply mean that the instruments are being utilized in their traditional manners?

Interesting. I rather enjoyed it, but I'm a sucker for a ton of brass, and the walls of sound that it can create, but I also thought the interplay between instruments was done quite well.

I quite like the music of Australian composer Richard Meale, who only passed away last year. Here's the only piece I could find of his on youtube:

Another (living) Aussie composer is Brett Dean. His stuff is awesome, but there is nothing on youtube (only an interview). His music is worth checking out if you are interested in composers south of the equator...

Brass is good fun.

Thanks for that. Meale's piece reminded me a bit of Ravel and Messiaen. I loved where it went.

I'm definitely interested, in Dean. What would you say that his music sounds like?

Even though I live here in Australia, I've heard little of either composer, to tell you the truth. I just thought I'd put these names out there for discussion. I'm looking forward to going to an Australia Ensemble concert next year where they will play what is Meale's finest piece, Incredible Floridas for chamber ensemble. I've heard his opera Voss, and that isn't a bad work also, although I don't find it as intruiguing as his earlier stuff (like the youtube video).

Brett Dean's music is a blend of all types of modernisms - some of it is as lush as Berg, & some as stark and pared down as Webern (though definitely not serial). The BIS cd that I saw in a shop even includes a work for chamber ensemble and electronics called Carlo. I believe it was inspired by the life of Carlo Gesualdo. An entirely instrumental work that I saw live last year called Testament, similarly dealt with how Beethoven coped with his deafness. I also saw (this year with the Australian Youth Orchestra, Sir Mark Elder conducting) his Ampitheatre, which was a colourful and quite dark piece evoking the history of buildings like the Colosseum. He's an interesting composer for sure, and quite prolific. He used to be a violist in the Berlin Philharmonic before coming back to Australia to devote more time to composition.

Another Aussie guy, but a bit older than Dean, is Barry Conygham. I haven't heard any of his more recent works (but will at a concert of the Australia Ensemble next year), but I have got on cd an old recording of his Water, Footsteps, Time for chamber ensemble and amplified instruments, which has much in common with the music of Takemitsu. Again, none of his stuff is on youtube (it appears that not everything is on youtube - yet!)...

Man, just tedious & awful. And where exactly was the music  ?

I have to agree. I've been to Azguime concerts since the mid-90s and I never truly warmed up to his works.

I didn't see anything truly engaging on this one, just a rehash of certain interesting things you can do with voice and live electronics. And the multimedia aspect was unimaginative and quite poor.

Here's a nice compromise between playing stringed instruments the "right" and "wrong" ways: Gloria Coates, who uses lots of microtones and glissandi (and otherworldly dissonances).

Brass is good fun.

Robin Hayward plays tuba. Here's the composition page of his website, full of clips:

http://www.robinhayward.de/compositions.html (http://www.robinhayward.de/compositions.html)

There are a lot of nice Australian and New Zealand composers. Martin Ng. Ross Bolleter. Lissa Meridan, Oren Ambarchi.

This is Ambarchi and Keith Rowe last year.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPAYyDvtdBc&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPAYyDvtdBc&feature=related)

Really enjoyed the samples from Hayward's page. I really liked those brass combinations. I went in thinking they would simply be loud, but he really composed those pieces well.

Also, loved that turntable music. I just love the sounds that come from those mixings.

I'm hoping that many will add to this thread. A thread solely focused on new classical compositions. But what does new mean? I'd save give it a healthy range, from the 1970s forward. Although, I'd hope for more pieces within the last decade, but I know how difficult it can be to find recordings of music that new, but I'll start us all off with Liza Lim.
Now just a minute here. Charlotte Moorman, who revolutionized the cello by playing it bare-breasted, has passed away. Now is this cello piece here more avant-garde than Charlotte or less? I say less, and I don't like seeing the avant-garde run backwards. Please concentrate on more provocative, not less provocative, works, as we march hopefully forwards. Otherwise it is too confusing, not knowing whether the real avant-garde is in front of us or behind us. For one thing, if we keep innovating backwards we may run headlong into tonality, and everyone knows that would be a disaster. For another thing, it is important not to let the bourgeoisie become complacent. We saw that this most likely caused WWI and WWII, and we certainly don't want that again.

Definitely an enjoyable piece, not really my cup of tea (I actually listened to his complete violin concertos today). I do enjoy some of the sounds he creates out of that wonderful viola. A bit too 'romantic' (?) for my taste though? Thanks for the post though.

Although, I'd hope for more pieces within the last decade, but I know how difficult it can be to find recordings of music that new, but I'll start us all off with Liza Lim.

A serious philosophical question: why include something from the 70's as "new"? That's over 30 years ago. That's ancient history where popular music is concerned. If we extend "newness" in classical music back that far, on the assumption that the artistic virtue of such pieces lends them current relevance, why not go back to the 60's or 50's and so on? I ask because in this thread and others recently there has been debate about the relative importance of treating rediscovered works by long-dead composers as new and important versus concentrating on active composers.

To me, one thing that sets classical music apart is its focus on a living continuum of art extending back centuries. Bach and Mozart aren't considered mere museum pieces by most classical music lovers, but rather "living" artists. Of course, how that historical consciousness and canon have been shaped (and politicized) is a whole other can o' worms.

Be all that as it may, here's more "new" music:

There's this idea that "new" means anything since the terrifyingly abstract high modernism of the 60s... i.e. the return back to tonality and the breaking down of "schools" - i.e. the era of post modernism. It's more convenience than anything else - Less combines the composers of the last 40 years than at any previous point in history, except perhaps for the almost complete marginalisation of (most of all contemporary) classical music from society (even musical society).

First, thanks for the links.

Second, in answer to your question, I was trying to be quite broad in using the term 'modern'. Guido sort of covers the reason why, but if you see the links that I am posting. I think one can gather what my idea of 'modern' is. I also picked the date, more of a guess though, to avoid composers like Boulez and Stockhausen.

I strongly disagree.  Do you know people that listen to pop music?  My students are teenagers and they know classic rock as well as current pop if not better!  Songs from the 60s and 70s are immersed in our culture.  Turn on the radio and you'll find a good fraction of the stations playing those songs.

Quote from: Guido on November 11, 2010, 05:14:39 AMthe return back to tonality
Ah. Like electroacoustics and turntablism and music theatre like Heiner Goebbels and Miguel Azguime and The Spy Collective and Kagel and Diamanda Galas. Like Simon Steen-Andersen and laptop music and noise music and....

The world of music is much richer and more various than "terrifyingly abstract (?) modernism of the 60s" and "the (?) return back to tonality." In the sixties, for instance, there was tape music and experimental* music and Fluxus (and other happenings) and minimalism (of all varieties) and live electronics (like from the Sonic Arts Union and from John Cage). Concept music, danger music, mixed media and multi-media.

In short, the sixties alone were more rich and more various than "terrifyingly abstract modernism." (I can't help asking, terrifying to whom? Always in these discussions, the reaction of some person or persons unknown is privileged over all other persons, creating a fake monolith of hideous music over here and another equally fake monolith of horrified listeners over there, locked in a life or death struggle! And that grotesquely over-simplified and inaccurate picture of reality is then substituted for what actually happened. And while all history is over-simplified and inaccurate, there are degrees! And recollecting the very recent past should really be easier to do more accurately and completely, hein? Why, some of us can recollect the sixties our own selves, man.)

*which word meant something quite different in the sixties and seventies than it has come to mean today.

There are a lot of nice Australian and New Zealand composers. Martin Ng. Ross Bolleter. Lissa Meridan, Oren Ambarchi.

This is Ambarchi and Keith Rowe last year.

Stockhausen was doing this kind of thing in the '60's. I'm not sure how these electronic composers can be more valid or original than the more mainstream Australian ones like Brett Dean, Elena Kats-Chernin or Barry Conyngham. But I also think that equally interesting things are going on in the non-classical realm in Australia, we've got some very fine bands here doing great stuff...

I don't think it's really a question of validity, nor do I think it is really a critique of composers creating in the more traditional vein.

Here's a piece by a guy I knew in college (last year), Keith Allegretti. I loved some of his music (there's an ingenious song cycle for soprano, harp, and double bass), but unfortunately, he heard that I disliked some of his other music and not that I loved afores... okay, this is going to be a hard sentence to construct. Bottom line: he doesn't like me, but I really like his music. Definitely cheering for him.

I listened to something "new."  The Weinberg clarinet concerto.  But it doesn't really fit in with this thread, whose theme seems to be "things whose principal virtue is their newness.  ;D  Alas Weinberg doesn't require the clarinet to do anything "interesting" like blow in the wrong end, replace the reed with a guitar pick, or fill the clarinet with soybeans.  Just boring, identifiable tones.   :'(

Scarpia, new was defined in the original post as chronological, not laudatory.

The things that have been posted so far have many virtues. For none of them is the principal virtue newness.

That new techniques are interesting says nothing about the interest of identifiable tones. They're still interesting too. I wonder why you present them (via sarcasm) as more virtuous than soybeans or guitar picks, though?

And, lastly, if this thread is not to your taste, then why do you feel compelled to come and trample all over it? Why not just leave it be? We like this music. And most of us have been able to dislike individual offerings without trampling all over them.

The Book of Sounds is a very peaceful series of meditations, which was both good and bad, because while listening I was filling out a very stressful series of forms, applications, and online complaint boxes about websites which were impeding my progress. Undoubtedly Otte kept me a little more sane than I would have been otherwise. Some of the "middle" parts are a little less intriguing, but I think that's because Otte put all the best stuff right at the start - Parts I and II are magical, although Part X gets a nod too, as does Part VI, which is three minutes long but feels like it's twenty seconds long.

That said, after listening to this all the way through, I will be VERY happy to put on some Beethoven!

Yes I know - these are all very fair points - I was trying to give the most potted history of music in the last half century that I could. The minimalism of the sixties points towards the post modernism of the following decades. The rejection of Modernism, and the adoption of post modern ideals (even if there is no one post modern aesthetic as such) is surely the major story to tell of the last 40 years or so in music (though modernists of course persist). In some ways every age is a rejection of the previous age's sensibilities. Although now there are no "schools" or real fashions anymore - it's a multiplicity.

More interesting perhaps is the marginalisation of modern music in musical society, with a few significant exceptions, though it's very hard to say when and how this happened as its been so gradual. Why is it that most of us on this board, many real conoisseurs, will know far more pieces from the first half of this century than the second half? Or more obviously, the 1860-1900 compared to 1960-2000. I know you listen to a lot of contemporary music (as in the majority of your listening), but I think you might be in the minority.

It's true. And it shouldn't be. That I'm in a minority, that is. Of course I should listen to a lot of contemporary music! It's too bad that listening to the music of ones' own time should be so rare. But prejudices are hard to break.

Well, I have a few ideas about that, none of them terribly complimentary!
It's true. And it shouldn't be. That I'm in a minority, that is. Of course I should listen to a lot of contemporary music! It's too bad that listening to the music of ones' own time should be so rare. But prejudices are hard to break.

Thanks, and I'm in full agreement with you. I don't mind being in the margin. I'm simply trying to proliferate choice.

Getting to know Fausto Romitelli's Professor Bad Trip was one of the highlights of my musical year.  Written in 2003, it's for a large chamber ensemble including electric guitar, electric bass, and electronics, and although it sounds improvised, it is very meticulously notated.

Here's the beginning of Part I (of three, about 70 minutes total length) in an excellent performance by the Fiarì Ensemble:

I must say, I haven't had the time since I got back home to listen to all these clips. For one, whenever I'm strolling through these classical discussion threads, I'm usually listening to music. For two, I'm usually listening to the kinds of folks, often, in these clips.

But I do look in from time to time to see what's going on, and who do I see but one of my dearest friends, Grainne Mulvey, pop up in this thread. Nice!!

And Greg, I just put on a Merzbow disc yesterday. Hadn't spun one of those for quite awhile. It was delightful, as always.

Fourteen Actors Acting (http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/12/12/magazine/14actors.html#index) is a new New York Times website feature with one-minute clips of, well, fourteen actors acting. But a composer named Owen Pallett has supplied music for each of the minute-long videos, and I think some of them are pretty darn interesting. Interesting to see a highly unlikely actor get a Shostakovich-like theme tune; Noomi Rapace has a showtune seen through a glass, darkly, and Anthony Mackie runs from a disaster to strains of something not unlike Penderecki. A fun little gallery.

Yeah, that's some nice stuff. Not too rowdy, but still good, clean fun. (For kids!) I have one or two Schnebel things on CD. This kind of thing is better with the visuals, of course, but just on CD is fine, too. I have dozens of operas on CD, after all. Most of them I've never seen.

This one looks really familiar, too. I wonder if I've seen this live somewhere.

Funny, I was at the Tate Liverpool last week but didn't see that sculpture.

For a while, I wondered if the piece was some sort of meta experimental work where the score said "have guys talk for three minutes," a la Cage. It's a sign of how silly some artistic trends have been that I expected that. The same effect also happened in the Tate Liverpool: a woman with a baby left the baby carriage in the middle of the sculpture gallery, and I thought that it was supposed to be an exhibit until I realized there wasn't a plaque.

Turns out the music is very mediocre- not awful, but not very good, either. There is more talking in the video than music for some reason.

Tell us how you really feel. ::) Not all music has to be on the cutting edge to be enjoyable. I haven't really sat down and listened to this work, but it has been getting some genuinely good press. What is your objection with it?

I completely agree about not all music having to be cutting edge to be enjoyable.  However I don't really set that much importance in whatever press a piece has, many pieces have hardly any press anyway.  I just decide for myself having listened closely to something and compared it subconsciously with what I see as good musicality in other works of the same style.

Post by: starrynight on July 07, 2011, 11:46:20 PM
Personally I would put 'new' music as from the 90s onwards.  The 70s and even the 80s (particularly the first half) I would put more under the classic modernist period, and I love music from both those decades.

So here is something from 2000.  It isn't a modernist styled piece, but I still think there is a freshness to it even though it could have been written a century ago.  :D

Here are some new pieces performed by an ensemble I set up to play newly composed works. They were composed especially for the event so only have been performed once (although some will probably get played again at some point, by us or maybe by others). There are a wide range of styles here. I won't embed the videos in the post since don't want to take up too much space. :)

This was great. Best Hosokawa I've heard so far.
Really got me into the potential of the accordion- didn't know you could stuff like that. That's some really ethereal stuff (and the volume control is insane, especially in the pp-ppp range), which is in contrast to what the instrument is normal associated with.

I hate to save something negative here, since I just did in the Art thread... (but I have to)  :-X
Did Saul compose this?  ??? ;D ;)

For some reason, I listened to it and clicked on the video to see how many views there were- and as I predicted, tons (4 million, unsurprisingly). It seems that the more tonal + sucky music is, the more popular it is.  ::) Even Saul has written better piano pieces- this sounds like one of the piano pieces he'd just write into Finale one afternoon... Therefore, I feel that he could probably be pretty successful if he marketed himself as a composer of "pretty piano songs."

I'm just surprised. Sounds to me more like another genre of music- I don't know what it's called, but I've heard it a few places- like solo piano stuff that is meant to sound simple and "pretty." Usually, it features chord progressions that are prominent in pop music, a left hand that plays strictly bass/rhythm, and a right hand that plays strictly melody and/or straightforward scale patterns.

Perhaps you should broaden your horizons and expand, what seems to be, a very a narrow conception of what is and what isn't classical music.

His wikipedia says he is a minimalist/film-score/contemporary composer.
This, maybe, can be counted as classical (barely), but you can't just call anything classical if you feel like it. If I wrote a metal song and called it a "classical work," does that make it a classical work? This is pushing it, because it sounds half-minimalist, half-pop.

Well I cannot really comment on the composer or on any of her music outside of this one piece. It really isn't my bag. It's very tonal and sort of has some romantic tinges. It has sweeping and soaring strings, a very balanced, easily recognized melody. So if you enjoy those sort of things, I suspect you'd enjoy her and her other compositions.

I think it was mentioned earlier, but one of my favorites of the new millennium has been Georg Friedrich Haas' in vain.  Very Ligeti circa 1970.

http://www.youtube.com/v/9PtJH63D0YY


Another composer I love is Kaija Saariaho.  She has too many great recent compositions to list them all but I will put the most recent one I've heard, her clarinet concerto D'Om Le Vrai Sens.

Well, I don't ever really know that they will be there. It's really a lot of trial and error. I use wikipedia and my own perusing as a jumping off point, and then utilize Youtube to further that branching, either by utilizing one of the names that I found or can recall, or by using the relatedness function on Youtube to find someone else entirely.
